MARIETTA, SATURDAY MORNING, MARCH 3, 1866.
Centuries have come and gone since
the Greek physician said gout was a dis
ease none but the gods could understand.
Generatien after generation of Galen's
successors have lived and died, and the
great opprobrium still awaits its Jeuner.
Not la ne of all the masters of the heal
ing art have earned the monument as
high as St. Paul's, as wide as Thames,
and as lasting as time, which Johnson
declared should be erected to the dis
coverer of a panacea for the gout.
Something, though not much may have
been done to mitigate the torment, the
fit may be shortened, the pain perhaps
alleviated, but at the best, drugs only.
afford temporary relief. Occasionally,
the malady yields at early dietetic and
hygienic treatment ; but if once it has
fixed its fangs on one arrived at man's
estate, it must be considered incurable.
Shakespeare makes Lord Posthumous in
a sore strait say :
Yet I am better
Than ohe that's sick o' the gout.; since he had
6 rather
roan so in perpetuity than be cured
:y the sure physlciaa—Death ;
and the lapse of three hundred years has
not weakened the force of the compari
son one whit.
The intractability of a disease may
always be measured by the variety of
remedies propounded for its relief. At
one time, doctors sought to conquer
gout with acids ; at another, they were
,all for alkalies. Hippocrates, and in
later times, Sir W. Temple, advocated
cauterisation, or burning with crude
flax ; while water was the fashionable
agent fifty years ago. When Elizabeth's
Lord Burleigh was laid up with the gout,
the Archbishop of Armagh besoughl
him to prove the efficacy of a remedy
he had brought out of Dutehland ; and
if it was as effectual as it certainly was
nasty, the Lord Treasurer ought never
to have complained again. Here is the
recipe :
"Take two spaniel whelps.of two days
old, scald them, and cause the entrails
to be tjken out, but wash them not.
Take four ounces brimstone, four ounces
turpentine, one ouncespermaceti, a hand
ful of nettles, and a quantity of oil of
balm, and put all the aforesaid in them
stamped,-and serve them up, and roast
them, and take the drops, and anoint
you where your grief is." Laud recom
mended Strafford to run up and down in
the dew. Cardinal Zinzendorif bathed
his legs every morning in pig's blood.
Horace Walpole was advised to cut his
nails in hot water, but found more bene
fit from his bootikens and .a decoction
of-dock-roots. A. humerous victim to
the "friendly earnest of fourscore," well
nigh pestered to death by the advice of
sympathising friends, made a note of all
their infallible recipes, and found that,
to insure a cure, he ,must dose himself
with colchicum, carbonate of soda, buck
bean tea, ether, sulphur, magnesia, and
gin ; and apply cabbage-leaves, treacle,
castor oil, leeches, and steam to his
troubled members, after rubbing them
well with oil of swallows, mustard, vine
gar, and vitriol. Then, if he refrained
from vegetables, and gorged hithseli
with cucumbers and onions, ate no meat
and lived generously, avoided wines and
spirits, and took abundance of gOod rum
and brandy, wrapped himself in flannel,
and went lightly clothed, used a flesh
brush, and avoided touching the affected
parts, and carried a magnet in his one
pocket, and a potatoe in another, be
might defy the gout, and live happy ever
afterwards; bbt with the obstinacy pe
culler to gouty subjects, this invalid
with many friends said, as a modern
statesman paid when a wine-merchant re
commended his cheap claret as a pana
cea: " Iprefer the gout."
Gout was once thought pre-eminently
aristocratic ; a rich man without the
gout is one of Rosalind's examples of
whom time ambles withal. - Dr. Syden
ham consoled himself with the reflection
that gout killed more' rich than poor,
more wise than simple: "Great kings,
emperors, generals, admirals, and phil
osophers have. All died of the gout-
Hereby nature shows . her impartiality,
since those whom she favors in one way
she afflicts in another." If this was
more than a half-truth in Sydenham's
day, it is no longer so. Goat has be
come more democratic, and fevers all
classes with his visits. Something may

The Gout
and the worst of it is, gout is _not con
tent with punishing the original offend
der, but wreaks its vengeance upon his
descendants.
.Dr. Garred was consulted
by a patient, who told him that, for up
wards of four hundred years, the gout
had laid hold of the representative of
his family as soon as ever he came into
possession of the estate. Dr. Cullen
was of the opinion that all gout was he
reditary, so that he must have believed
the tradition that Adam died of heredi
tary gout. Modern authorities do not
go quite so fir, but they agree that in
three out of five cases, gout has been
inherited. No wonder, then, that Hor
ace Walpole grumbled at becoming its
victim, spite of his virtue and leanness.
After comically. describing himself as
wrapped in flannels like the picture of a
MOrocco ambassador, he says: "If
either my father or mother had had it,
I should not dislike"it so much. I am
herald enough to approve it, if descend
ed genealogically ; but it is an absolute
upstart in me, and what is more provok
ing, I had trusted to my great abstinence 1
for keeping me from it ; but thus it is.
If I had any gentleman-like virtue, as
{patriotism and loyalty, I might have got
something by them ; I had nothing but
that beggarly virtue temperante, and
she had not interest enough to keep me
from a fit of the gout. Another plague.
is, that everybody that ever knew any
body that had it, is so good as to come
with advice, and direct me how to man
age it ; that is, how to continue to have
it for a great many years."
Where a predriposition for gout ex
ists, a fit may be induced by the most
contradictory causes. One man obtains
it from a glass of port ; another, with a
draught of lemonade ; while a glass of
ale will suffice with a third. - Kingsley's
pet northeast wind excites it in some
cases ; a mathematical problem has been
known to produce it ; and it has often
followed from sudden cold, the drawing
of a tooth, or 1 es of. blood. IL is this
uncertainty that baffles Medical art ;
what may cure in one case, may kill in
another. A victim who was racked with
torture by a glass of wino, found peace
in a glass of verjuice ; a Water-drinking
lawyer found succor in wine ; while a
wine-bibbing brother obtained relief
from milk. A German inn.keeper was
cured by having his feet, nailed to a
block ; a Genevan, by a mad-woman
rushing into his inom, and knocking his
feet together ; and Hone tells as how a
mad bull gave chase to a gouty old gen
tleman, and frightened his malady away
for ever.
In the belief that the gout suffered no
rival disease near its throne, a bishop
once vainly offered a thousand pounds
to any one who could put him in the
way of . having a fit. It was also popu
larly supposed to lengthen life, and it is
true enough that its subjects very often
attain to great age, in spite of its attacks.
M. Quartier, physician to the Duke of
Bouillon, had a sixty years' acquaint
anceship with ~the gout, yet at ninety he
walked firmly, and did not die till he
was a hundred years old to the very
hour. Nor are living examples wanting
of the vigor men may retain to advanced
age, to whom the goat is a regular visi
tor.
One I!,iisaUrus wrote a strange little
book in Honor of the Goat, with the
avoned object of proving that it was a
blessing for which mankind could not be
thankful enough. He sets about his dif
ficult task so heartily, that it is some.
what difficult to guess whether he is
serious or satirical ; and the reader is in
doubt whether he should laugh at or
with him. After Vindicating the anti
quity of his subject, as something young
er than the fall of Adam, sent down from
heaven mercifully to lengthen the life
forfeited by man's transgresSion, our au
thor proceeds to give six good reasons
why gout should be ranked among the
blessings of earth. Firstly, it gives a
man pain without danger. Secondly, it
is no constant companion, but allows its
friends lucid intervals, in which they
experience a deliciotis enjoyment of
health, unknown to those who pass
through lif6 without an ailment. Third.
ly, it is a perpetual weather-guide, ever
ready`for nse, in comparison with which
your barometers and thermometers are
worthless instruments; and our gout
defender predicts that, if its signs are
properly studied, the time would come
when no shipoiVner would consider his
vessel safe unless commanded bye gouty
captain. Fourthly and fifthly,_ only_
people are nnplagned with headaches,
and `invulnerable' to fever;'and lastly,
.gout is incurable; 41. does not go so
-3,
faWas to assert that gout will render its
poriessers actually imaiortal, altheuih
it often keeps a man alive till his friends
are weary of him ; but.he maintains that
it - Paracelus had the power of making
men proof against the shafts of death,
hie secret consisted in inoculating them
with gout. As to the objection, that
gouty people do die, he answers that
they do BO because they are ignorant
fools, who do not know when they are
well off; but moat needs be curing the
gout, and therefore deal with Death's
factor, the physician. "Let every one
bear hie own.burden ; the gout has noth
ing to do with the carnage of the doe':
tor."
If we could trust the Regiatrar-gener.
al's Reports, gout is not answerable for
more than one death in every seventeen
hundred ; but the insurance companies
reckon the fatality of the disease at a
much higher, rate, placing it among their
worst enemies. Sir B. Brodie has left,
it on record that a large proportion of
patients coming to lifin with so-called
local diseases, were really suffering from
the influence of gout os the system, al
though free from anything which com
monly passes for gout. Heat seems to
be antagonistic to this mysterious dis
ease ; it is far oftener met with in -tem
perate than in warm climates, and pre
vails more in spring and autumn than
during the hot summer months ; but diet
seems to have more to do with goat than
anything_ else, and as malt liquors stand
first on the black• list of gout-producers,
we fear the disease will never be rare in
a land of beer and ale.
CHILDREN When a child is hurt,
never hush it. Hall's Journal of Health
says, it is inexcusable barbarity : it is
repressing its instinct ; and for this rea
son if physical punishment is indicted
upon a child it is perfect brutality. A
thousand times better is it to soothe by
kindly words and acts, divert - the mind
by telling stories, by explaining pictures,
or by providing it with new toys. We
have many a time in our professional
experience as to sick children, found
more benefit to be derived from a bean
tiful or interesting toy than from . a dose
of physic. The greatest humanity a
mother can exhibit in respect to her
sick child is to divert it, divert it, DIVERT
IT, in all pleasing ways possible, as we
ourselves, who are larger children, feel
sometimes really sick, when a cheerful
face and much loved friend has come in,
and before we know it we have forgotten
what was the matter with us.
TO RELIEVE THE FEET,---Blilliolll3 may
be checked in their early developement
by binding the joint with adhesive plas
ter and keeping it on as long as any Un
easiness is felt. The bandaging should
be perfect, and it might be as well to
extend it round the foot. An inflamed
bunion ehould be poulticed, and a larger
shoe worn. lodine, twelve grains, lard
or spermaceti ointment, half an ounce,
makes.a capital ointment for bunions.
It should be rubbed on gently twice or
thrice a day. Enlarged joints should be
rubbed thrice a day with common salad
oil, care being taken at the time not to
strain or overtax the feet by too great
or too frequent exercise. Slippers, and
loose ones, should invariably be worn.
Of shoes we may say the -same thing ;
on no account have tight-fitting shoes,
slippers or boots.
or The other day, several gentlemen
were discussing the alarming prevalence
of the crimes, desertions, women eloping
with other men, &c., when a well known
Teuton, who had been listening with
great attestion. stepped up and in an
excited manner said : "If my vile runs
away mit anoder man's vife, I will shake
him out of her breeches, if she be my
own fader, I will."

"Now, girls," said Mrs. Partington,
the other day, to her niece, "you must

"Why so, aunt IY"
"Why I see by the papers that we've

iir A physician, who is a truly pious
man, was speaking in a prayer meeting
lately of the duty of imposing the idea
of salvation upon those near death, and
of a physician's opportunities in this

or To be a woman of fashion is one
of the easiest things in the world. A
late writer thus describes it: "'Buy

but at home ; neglect your children and
nurse lapdogs ; go to church everytime
you get a new dress."

backwards, but was saved from breaking
her pretty neck by the gallantry of a
nice young man, who caught her in his
arms.
eir The truest Christian politeness is
cheerfulness. It is graceful, and sits
well on old as well as young. It is the
best of all company, and adorns the
wearer of it more than rubies and dia

and yet is valuable.
Eir Genuine neighborly love knows
no distinction of persons. It is like the
sun, which does not ask on what it shall
