Whether this system may be considered an entire.new principle introduced into Medical Philosophy or an improvement ad-,ded to former knowledge and opinions and modes of practice we do not undertake to determine, but there appears to be so much truth in the doctrine and success attending its practice that it is worthy of a careful and diligent examination and experimental trial, to determine more fully its benefits, it may with propriety be urged as a duty incumbent on those engaged in controling and regulating the operations of human life, to impartially examine a system and obtain Sa knowledge of one which has produced innumerable salutary and happy results in counteracting diseased action and in restoring morbid sufferers to health. S It is the uniform reply of those who have Sembraced this doctrine and system, in ans. over. to s.uch as oppose and speak reproach A manual in an abreviated manner we made out, soon after we commenced the Homoeopathic practice, as a vade mecum or companion-that work has been corrected and enlarged from time to time, by carefully observing the effects and' operation's of remedies on patients, and by examining the Pathogenetic operations of Drugs in' va, rious Treatises on the subject, and by conversations with, and facts collected fromlearned and eminent members of the Homcopathic School; There are'it is true, several Treatises somewhat on a similar plan, and someof them are much more extensive in de-- tailing peculiarities, and indications of disease and remedies. Some of those are to *large and complex for convenient and ready. reference. Others are very incomplete-- this Manual, is intended to be simple and:. piain, yet more full, as a familiar Reperto.. - ry.than any work.we have seen, giving.the names and varities of diseases, and the radicine most useful and proper for them:, 110, connected with it in a short anld conscise rmanner. 'All the medicines are not selected in thi,work, for many of the diseases or sympStoms which are named for them in some of the large works-particularly in Jhar's Manual, Edited by Dr. Hull-But enough a re named to answer all ordinary purposes and indications, and those are -selected,which are generally found to be most efS.ficient and applicable to the case. It has " been the intention rather to retrench and s- elect remedies of the most potence, in pre. iference to those of less or doubtful efficacy. S To obtain a knowledge of this system and S-the propriety of the mode of prescribing; it is of importance carefully to read the::Orgenon of Hawneman, for no one can: have a correct understanding of the:If omceopathic system without it; also, other;: "Treatises on the Pathonegnetic propOerte 4q " f.PDrugs-ought to be studied. fin this Manual, the synopsis for some of the classes of diseases, or arrangements are a:dopted, different from any we have seen, making the whole subject and the means of refering, to the disease, and the appro.,priate remedy applicable to them plain anul easy. 'It is intended to furnish an Index, as,a.ready guide for prescribing, and will be:found to be a very useful vade mecunr, should the prescriber desire a more exten-.*sive investigation of the case-reference may be had to more enlarged works,,and to examine the various symytomq, and the Pathogenesis of the remedies indicated-a course recommended to.be; pursued. A great and leading principle in the practice of Homceopathy, is to give but one article of medicine at a time, for as Hah, nemann observes, A' the Alaeopathic pre.;,sribe'r, mix together a great many ingre. - 12i dients. one destroys either wholly or partly the operation of the other, or gives to it a different mode of action, which had never biecn thought of, so that the effects calculated upon could never take place, this enigma of mixture often produces a new modi. fication ofdisease, consequently a fictitious' malady joins itself teothe original one, and, aggravates the primitive disease." Orgenon,. page 41. This opinion and the consequences grow. ing out of a compound and inconsistent use of remedies, was forcibley illustrated in the results of treatment of a late epidemic disease-when it was often stated that the force of the disease located on the brain-- prodtacing congestion of that organ, and' that the patients died of brain affection., Those cases were mostly treated by the use of opium,* Mercury, Ipecac, Essences,, * Opium freely given in congestive diseases as this was, belore evacuations from the blood vessels' are made, increases the congestion and. agravate;s 4 I t, symptoms.. S Alcoholic potations, &c. &c., promisca..ously combined together-a great portion of the cases treated in this way proved fa. S tal-during the same period by a very dif. - ferent course, more simple, embracing many of the principles and remedies of Homceo-.pathy, the same disease was almost invariS ably cured. SIn prescribing a medicine for use, one should be chosen that covers or applys to the greatest number of symptoms the patient has-or one that is most HomceopaSthic to the original or prominent symptoms of the disease-among the symptoms produ-ced by a great number of medicines which have been tested, it is easy to find one that Scontains elements from which might be composed an artificial disease, similiar to the ensemble of the symptoms existing, "':this is precisely the remedy desirable," SOrgenon, p. 157. "" -To cure diseases by this plan, requires three conditions, viz: 1st to select a medi 16 "bus," 9, Curantur," or of curing diseases by counteracting remedial agents-since,that time it has been rode as a hobby by almost all practitioners-It has no doubt been a means of producing many a protracted and profitable course of medical attendance, as well as a subsequent chronic painful disease. The practice of giving Mercury so as to saltvate, is an easy course to pursue lor the perscriber, for it does not require much study or investigation, to follow up the coarse and exhibit the remedies. In con. sequence of some criticism on the method of treatment of the Epidemic of 1832. It was tartly observed by a medical friend, during the prevalence of that Epidemic, "( I shall give my patients Mercury, Opium, Ipecac, and Alcoholic remedies, under which they must take their chance to live or die, the result was, they generally died." One of the glories of the Homceopathic System will be, to introduce a substitute for 17 such a practice, and establish an opinion in favor of the injudicious and injurious use of such a general method of treating diseases. In suggesting a METHOD for selecting a medicine for the case, we have an observa. tion or two to make, It will be perceived that in the Repertory, for the first stage of disease of an inflammatory nature, Aconite is:named as a first or leading remedythis has proved to be the most efficient and certain medicine, to check inflammatory action and fever in the first stage, that has ever been introduced into use. For Centuries, Medical Men have been engagdd in investigating and experiment. ing,;to endeaver to discover a medicine, which would act as a direct sedative, or that would directly restrain arterial action so as to cure inflammation, which might answer as a substitute for blood-letting ih inflammatory diseases; -hitherto those m. searches have failed in obtaining any one to be depended on, with much certainty those medicines that have approached nearest to producing such an effect, according to general estimation; are Digitalis. Tartarised Antimony, and Nitrate of Potash-But none of those have very extensively been relied on, to the exclusion of blood-letting, neither would it have been. safe for the patient, to have omitted bleeding in many cases under the systems and in the manner that diseases have generally been treated. By the use of Aconite, particularly when' prepared and administered in accordance with the Homceopathic principle and system-a more direct effect is pioduced, on arterial action and progress made-toward checking inflammatory disease or fever, than by any medicine heretofore introdu. ced, into use--It furnishes an excellent substitute in niany such cases for blood-letting. --It answers various purposes which bleed-. 19" ing does not effect;- in quieting Nervous; irritation, morbid irratibility and febrile, -commotion in the system. Although Aconite holds a prominent rank for the uses just awarded to it; there are many other. remecies to be found in the Repertory very useful, and under some con. ditions more applicable to many febrile diseases. In the. Repertory it- will be perceived that generally a.number of medicines are. embodied for a disease, and for the various gradesmof that disease-It is however to.be understood, that those medicines are not,' all equally and alike useful in the case; but some are more useful in one feature or stage of the case, and some in another, The peculiar-, stage, nature or character of.the dissase, for which a medicine would bemost Homceopathic, or would best cover thq4bole symptoms:of the disease, must 'be learned by observatidn ind experience, anid by examining and studying the Patho. genetic effects of the Drugs mentioned in some work on the Pure Materia Medica. It is also very important particularly in complex and chronic cases, to obtain an accurate history of the case-To ascertain what previous ailments the patient has had, and what medicines have been used in the treatment of them-It will frequently be discovered by such investigation, that the "patients illness is owing to their having had some disease which has not been well cured, or to the injurious or poisonous effects of sbme medicine they have taken. Thus, in cases 3 and 4 in this Manual, the disease was evidently owing to the effects ofMercurytaken 10 or 12 years before; ' this opinion directed us to the use of antidotes for Mercurial poisoning, and with the use of those remedies, the patients wee cured--also, in case 16, the disease seemed 21 to have been the effect of a long use and contaminating influence of Bark of Quinine, exhibited five years before; by giving the patient antidotes for barklpoisoning, we succeeded in curing or very much mitigating the disease. The following is a very good way to determine on a medicine to be used-If a pa. tient presents who has Fever, Head Ache, Gastralgia, (a painful distress at the Stomach Nausea, &c.) By turning to fever iri the Repertory, it will be found that Belladona is a prominent remedy for Fever; then look at Cephalagia (or head ache), and Bell. is found as a leading remedy for that; look-at Gastralgia and Nausea, and Bell. is named for those symptoms-Thus it will appear that Bell. is a leading remedy for four ofthe prominent symptoms of the case - So Bell. would be a proper and proriinent remedy to use; Aco,. or Nux. might-. do as welk 23 "I'umoors-bleeding from the Hzemorrhoidal Yess*e, &c. By examining the Repertory it vill be perceived that for Cephalagia-Nux. is a remedy for Gastroses, Nux. is among the medicines for it-for Constipation, we find Nux. a leading remedy-for those affections of the Womb mentioned, Nux. is a valuable medicine-and for Hzemorrhoidal a'faffections, Nux. holds a prominent rank; therefore for such a case, or for one em. bracing a portion of those symptoms, Nux..will be a leading and valuable remedy; other articles would frequently be useful, such as Bell, Bey,Iod, Mere, Puls, Rus, Sep, Stann, &c. Again, suppose you are consulted by a patient who has Niausea, pain of the Stomach, ad occasional vomiting, with Diar. rhcea, more or less severe-By 'examining the Repertory, it will be perceived that for Xauspa and. vomiting, the nmedicines in-i u 4 eated, are Aconite, Antimony, Arnic, Bell, Ipe, &c., for Gastroses, the same medicines are indicated. For Diarrhcea, and painful uneasiness of the Bowels, Acon, Antim, Bell, Camp, Ipec, &e., are directed, therefore one of those medicines will be a proper one to use-by one or two doses of Antimony 1st 2nd or 3rd trituration of one grain each, we have frequently checked vomiting and cured the patient, and have made similar cures by the use of Aeon, and Ipec. By following this plan in other cases for fixing on a medicine will lead to a tolerable course of prescribing. The author of the Homoeopathic System and the founder of the Pure Materia Medi. ca, was not the first, neither does he.pretend to be, who advocated this principle and dedtrine, nor to condemn the old mode of studying Materia Medica, by proposing a I plan similiar to that adopted by HomNea - palbists. But until the immortal Iiuhne 25 Mian, no one ever attempted to make a sim. ilar system of-Materia Medica-therefore it Scouldnotbe practised. Haller the distinguished author of Physi. ology, as referred to by Hahnemann and Ruoff, unspairingly denounced as quackery the mode heretofore pursued, and urged the plan of having experiments performed on "healthy persons, as furnishing the only sure means of aseertaining the action of medicinal agents on the body; this forms a practice on which is founded the doctrine of the new School or simila similibus. Medicines given a person when in a state of health carefully prepared and their use continued for a length of time, Homceopathist contend and have proved from experements will produce a certain train of symptoms of disease, and frequently a great number of symptoms are exhibited by their action on different organs-The same train of symptoms it is stated and piroved by experi. 26 ments will be produced, by repeating them on the same person or on a different subject; those symptoms which a medicine produces when given in this way; when they affect a patient as a disease; it is ascertained by trials and various proofs, are the most readily and certainly cured by the same kind of mediiine, though to cure a disease the remedy must be given in a very small quantity, this forms the principle of simila similabus, or that similar miedicines cure symptoms of disease similar to those which they produce, this doctrine and suchl facts form the great and leading principle and practice of Homoeo, pathy. The author of the Orgenon, and the founder of the Homceopathic School, commenced his system by trying the effects of Drugs in the way just alluded to, and by pursuing the cou rse for a long period of time, and treasuring up a multitude of facts and the cases cured by those medicaments, he with the aid of many pupils, desciples, and coad 17 jtotors' was en'ibled to carty out and mature a system and plan, that seems to promise to be of an infinite benefit and blessing to mankind. Similar modes of treating diseases, or where the principle has been involved that the success of the remedy, depended upon a Homceopathic principle has been frequently used by Physicians while they were not aware of it-one instance it is presumed will not be out of place to refer to; a favourite remedy with my venerable friend and patron. the late Dr: Samuel Bard, President of the College of Physicians and Surgeons in this city-was for bleeding from the Lungs and symptoms connected with that state of disease, to give Ipeoacuanha; and for Dysenteric affection with Nausea &c., to give Ipecac and Rhubarb, -now the pathogenetic effects of Ipecac, are to produce discharges of blood from the,Lungs, and other symptoms connected with Heomoptesis, and it is well known that 28 Ipecac given a person, produces Nausea and acts as a laxative on the Bowels attended with gripin'g-then this gentleman's practice for its success in those cases, was based on a law of Homceopathy, Dr. Bards prescriptions were the result ofobservation and experience, without having any knowledge of the Pathogenetic effects of Ipecacuanha or Homoeopathy. To illustrate further, it is ascertained that Cinchona or Quinine, Arsenic, Quassia, &c., given during health do produce Intermittent disease or Fever-It is well known that those articles are common and efficient remedies for intermittent diseases; Belladona, Stramonium, Coccuilus, Indicus, &c. prbduce pain of the head,stuper, dilated Pupils. Delerium &c-Those are amongthe most efficient remedies for those symptoms when theyexist es a natural disease. Belladona produces Stricture of the ltroat and inability to swallow fluidsand othe.'symptoms attendarnt on Hydrophobia, In cases of Canine Madness or Hydropho, bia, *Belladona is a remedy Which will mitigate or has cured-that disease. (See the Chapter on Poisons, article, Hydropho. bia, at the latter end of this Book. Nux Vomica produces dizziness, pain in the head, nervous irritation, and in large doses more violent symptoms such as Spasms &c., when those symptoms exist as a natural disease, Nux. V. is well calculated to cure them-Cantharides produce pain and scalding sensation at the neck of the Bladder, and along the Urethra, and suppression of Urine, when those symptoms exist as a natural disease, Cantharides is among the m6st efficient remedies for them-examples of this kind might be multiplied, but those will suffice-Sthal, a Danish Physician of the 17th century, speaks unsparingly of this doctrine, but did not seem to *Qrgenon, page 54. 3CC Have been aware of its tiuth and importance when he remarks 't the received method in medicine of treating diseases by opposite remedies, (or by counteracting or contrary means,) is completely false and ab. surd, on the contrary I am satisfied that diseases are subdued by agents which produce a similar affection, or simila similibus." It has been and still appears to be a popular opinion, that diseases are generally owing to the existence of a material in the Blood of an impure or extraneous nature"or to a morbid accumulation of Bile or noxious matter in the stomach or Alimentary, Canal-br to some derangement or change in organic texture of some functional Organ. These are states or conditions of the body which it may fairly be presumed, se.lS dom or never primarily take place, but if. those states and situations of the functional S organs of the system or agents of life do not exist, they are commonly owingto a pre - 7 I~~ '-- B: at the time an increased sensibiliy in.the part or tissue affected--therefore a minute portion of such a medicine seems to act and produces a gentle aggravation of the diseased fibre or tissue, or influences the dynamic influence--when they are in a morr bid state they are more sensibly affected than when in health-experience seems to S prove that a large dose of such a medicine which is capable of producing an aggravation or over excitement, by which their sal1 S utary influence is frustrated and their curative effects destroyed-and in many instan* ces injurious consequences are produced-. If the medical aggravation is carried above the morbid one, or above a healthy state and tone-then a reacting effort of the functions of life will ensue, which disturbs the calm medicinal influence, which it seems best to avoid-large doses of medicine con' tinued and repeated frequently produce injurious or poisonous effectsu and then the S whole plan fails, as the records of medicine show. Tihe dose of medicine should be so small.as to produce only an aggravation, but less in degree than the natural disease-when the dose is large it would be likely to, and does produce an increased excitement above the disease, or a counteracting operation-then much or all of its curative effects may be frustrated by a counteracting or suppressing influence. In administering medicines on this plan, it is proper to give but a very minute c'ose of those specific remedies, so as to produce a-gentle aggravation only at first, or a quieting equilebrium in the system-or an antidotal operation to vitiating or Psoric, or poisonous material lurking in the lodyrather than a harsh irregular commotion or counteracting operation-Therefore a minute dose, which works out no injurious operations nor poisonous effects, and that does no harm even if they do not cure, are 'found to be the best and all that is necessa. 35 Yaxigepment.. Thus you will find Angina as lagener4 term for digeases of the throat and all,tfe variety of angina (sore throat) fol19 it-The Bladder, the Ear, the Eye, the Nose, are the heads of classes, and are followed by all the liseases peculiar to K those organs.

London Medical Journal-Ferris & Reese of New York, 13el1 of Philadelphia and many othera 40 This condition of the vital functions was often exhibited during the Epidemic Pneumonia, which prevailed in this country during the late war-also, a similar state of congestive depression, or obstruction and aparent stagnation of the blood in the Lungs, was frequently presented during the Epidemic of 1832 and 1834. Unfourtunately for the reputation of Medical Science, and more unfortunately Sfor the patients-those Cpngestive states of the circulating fluids which took place inthe former Epidemic as well as in the latter-was generally treated by stimulant S remedies, composed of essential oils united with Alchohol-Opium, Mercury and Sudorifics-Wine, Rum. Brandy and even Alcohol-these were vsriously compounded S together, sometimes in a Heterogeneous manner. It is a maxim well settled, that in the early stage of those diseases-Opium and Ar4 - 41 -Adent Spirits aggravates the symptoms-_ makes the case more obstinate and more apt. to prove fatalI As the use of Mercury rather injudiciousI 'has been mentioned in this introduction-we think proper to refer to some eminent opinions on that subject. For many years before his demnse Dr. Hosack, as he often expressed it, abstained from its use as a common remedy ini fevers. and diseases-In remarking on the common and rather promiscuous use of Mercury in diseases of the Liver; he said that it pro. duced more Liver diseases than it cured& The following remarks are stated, as being a part of a lectnre, given by Professor Chapman of Philadelphia, extracted from the Homceopathic Examiner, vol.

Under many circumstances blood leting may be claimed as a Homceopathic "remedy, on that account if no other; manmanaged as above mentioned it is useful in such cases; Some reasons for this are as follows: "A frequent use of blood letting, when a " person is in health or. good condition of S body, predisposes the system to Plethora, inclining to inflammatory disease; for such a state of the body, when it occurs as a natural disease; blood leting is a popular andefficient remedy for it; a fi-equent use of bleeding for slight complaints of somewhat a local nature, predisposes the blood vessels to preter natural fullness, and Congestion ^ r.-' -'*.?% 11?

Dr. Hosack was greatly alarmed, he expressed doubts whether anything could be done to save her. In this case we discovered a condition ofI: things similiar to one which we had often S witnessed in the Epidemic and Sporadic cases of similar diseases of the chest; we proposed using small bleedings, and to be repeated if afterwards it was advisable, and those to be followed by small doses of Ipecacuanha* in warm infusion; to these remedies Dr. H. at first promptly objected, my friend Dr. Francis was rather favoura. ble to them, and after a good deal of con* Homoeopathists understanding the Patho. genetic proprieties of Ipecac. will see the,, indications of this medicine for such a condition of disease, 48 In simple inflammatory diseases, bleeding does not seem to be very often required, for Aconite, Belladona, Ignatia and other appropriate remedies, will generally control that state of disease; though in some severe cases, blood leting may be used with great advantage; and there seems to be no objection to its use as connected with:: Homceopathic treatment and medicines. In several cases we have pursued this course with benefit and success. As one of the leading principles in this system, is to give only one medicine at a time, although there are some cases in which the prominent symptoms are such, that'more than one medicine seems to be strongly indicated, and it may be advisable to exhibit more than one kind, in such cases they should not be combined, but given at alternate periods; for instance one every six or eight hours in alternation, or one in the morning and the other at night; when 53 the fluid as mentioned above and well shak. en, this forms the third dilution, one drop of either of those dilutions, united with 99 drops of fluid, forms a higher attenuation one degree i In this manner the operator may proceed to obtain any degree or number of attenuation. The medical properties of Vegetable substances are the best, if procured when the vegetable or shrub is growing in the highest degree of perfection; the juice ought to be obtained by expression when it can be, and cleared from the impurities; then an equal quantity of it and pure Rectified Alcohol are to be added together, let it stand 24 hours or more, then strain it and keep it for use, two drops of this liquid is to be added to 98 drops of pure water or Alcohol, or to a mixture of those two which seems to be better, or one forth of Alcohol and three forths of water; give the mixture a number of shakes, this forms the k~ p, c~~c,.. ~-..~:~ ~~i iira b-, 1:I.c~."r. s;: d t-~' i.~rdjtX~_. ^ dj~r~~ a.:i3"::~ r: ~: j4"1 54 first dilution; then if one drop of this is added to 99 drops ef the fluid above mentioned, and shaken in the same way, the S second dilution or attenuation is formed; the same process is to be followed to obtain Sany higher grade of dilution. It is recommended by some of the writers and memS bers of this school, to continue to increase: the attenuations in this ratio of proceedure, until the thirtyeth grade of dilution is obS taiued. The pure Extract of a Vegetable substance, is sometimes used instead of the S Juice or Tincture; this may be formed inS to a trituration in the manner above stated, S or a solution of it may be made and treated 'in the manner just described to make dilutions.

The rule of administering those miedicines as generally recommended and prao A~r;~~i t 55 tised; are in acute or severe cases, to give, the stronger preparations, or those of the low triturations or dilutions, and to repeat them oftener thai in more protracted or mild cases; in very severe cases, such as Croup, Spasms, Cholic, or acute inflammation, the remedy ought to be given at first E.very 50, 40, 30, 20 or 10 minutes; after a few doses are given in this way, the periods should be lengthened; or if there is a miti. gation of the symptoms, it is better to entirely suspend the medicine untill its effects are observed, for sometimes a dose or two or three, given early will stop the disease and effect a cure; if it is thought necessa. ry to repeat the medicine afterwards, the dose need not be repeated oftener than r once in two or three, or even four or six " hours. In less acute cases, medicine should be | given not oftener than every three, four or sixhours, in more lingering cases, it should,:" ^ M ~ h ^ -.^ ':..-...... --,. ',. -* - ~-..- -..^^ 67 5Ci ýbe interfered with or interrupted, by a re petition of the dose, or by the use of any otier medicine; by pursuing this course many cases of disease of several years standing have been cured, which have resisted the influence of masses of compound Drugs, as the cases and records of Fomoopathy will abundantly show. In Chronic or lingering cases, the highýest triturations or attenuations and dilutions are allowed to answer best, although many practitioners use the highest preparations in acute cas-s of disease, they are said to be equally successful with thenm as with stronger doses; a very important consideration is in prescribing, to select and use a medicine which'is Hornomopathic to the case, of the one that is suitable for the whole ensemble of the symptoms, more depends on this than the amount of the dose. The quantitycomposiing the dose, seems td be'left very much with the judgment of ttTU 58 thie prescriber, nnd they vary considerably on this point; if the triturations are used, one, two, three and four grains may be given at a time; if the dilutions are chosen, about the same number of drops will be J1 > suitable for a dose; though some pralctitioners say they use a much less quantity than is above named; and with more bene. fit and decided influence and advantage. The Pills or- small Globules which are fre. quently used, are compe~ed of Saceharium Lactis, and muistened or impregnated with the Tincture or dilution of medicine the prescriber may desire to use. To illustrate the subject somewhat more fully, a few extracts from the Orgenon of Iahnemann are appended. The very minute dose of a medicine..which is tequired to subdue and destroy natural diseases, by analogy to the symp. toms produced by the latter, leave in. the JII ~~---- ~ - -~:::; r 59 organism a slight medicinal disease, which outlives the primitive affection; but the extreme minuteness of the dose, renders this disease so slight and susceptable of dissipating itself, that the organism has no need to oppose to it any greater re-action, than that which is requisite to raise the ex. isting state to a habitual degree of health." ~ 68. SIn no instance is it requisite to em. ploy more than one simple medicinal sub. stance at a time." ~ 272. " A Homweopathic medicine is injurious when given in to large a dose, and hurtful to the patient, in proportion to the extent of the quantity administered; but the increase of the dose is prejudicial in the same degree, as the remedy is more Homoeopathic, and a strong dose of such a medicine, would'do more harm, then the dose of an Allaeopathic medicinal substance, which '.*^ ^;..*; ** l*".- ^ ^ * - -.,. -.. - 1.,: 4i 60 had no analogy to the disease, of equal strength." ~ 276. ' A remedy administered in a dose sufficiently small, is so much the more efficacious, nay, almost wonderfully so, in proportion as it has been Homceopathically chosen." 1 B 277. "T The dose of the remedy can never be sufficiently small, so as to be inferior to the power of the natural disease, which it can extinguish and cure, provided it be capable of producing a small increase of the symptoms immediately after it is administered." I B 279. "This maxim will serve as a rule by which doses of Homceopathic medicines are to be attenuated to such a degree, merely to produce an almost insensible aggravation of the disease. I B 280. 61 - -"I According to the Hommeopathic doctrine and rule of prescribing, very little reliance is to be placed on external remedies, except in Surgical cases, and instances of mechanical injury, therefore few are recommended; those most advisable and most useful, are warm water, or fomentation in some cases, and cold water, and cold bathing, or ablu. tion in otherp, as the nature of the case, or opinions of the presciiber may prefer and think proper. However useful external and local re. medies may be, when no internal remedies are given, or when large quantities of comrnpound Allcopathic Drugs are used, they generally are considered useless, and frequently injurioua when a patient is taking Homceopathic medicine. The practice of Blistering using Sinapisms, Caustics, Issues and all those materials to excite and corrode the skin, operate on the principle of counteracting remedial agents, to produce '+{^; + ^I 62' a new or medical or artificial 'disease, to try to cure the natural one, which is oppos. ed to the doctrine and principle of Hoinceopathy, or Simila Similabus. But this is not all the objection which is made to the use of such remedies, or those containing medical mattor. It has often been stated, that in the fomwopathic treat. ment, one medicine only should be used, at a time, and tnat all other medicinal substan. - ces and influences should be avoided; no matcrial medical matter can be applied to the surface, or used about, the patient, unless some exhalation or effluvia arrising from it, is inhailed by the patient; which j. operates on the system, and either neutraises or couraerazts the effect of the medicine selected and given for an internail operation, to cure the disease; also a porton of it will be absorbed through thepopes Y-- - of the'skin, in' this way it enters Mthe circu s n it te cirle 64. ation of the medicine, and prevent or de. stroy its salutary effects. Therefore it is of great importance that while using the remedies, the gatient should rigidly abstain from the use of many articles of food and drinks, that they may have "been in the habit of using; they ought to confine themselves to those articles that are mild in their nature, not very exciting, and easy of Digestion. In acute cases of disease, nature general. ly wisely impairs or destroys the appetite, and this provision of good Doctor Nature, is one of the most useful and effectual means of checking the disease; under these circumstances the patient generally has a great disposition to drink cold water, and this is another of nature's remedies to check and cure acute and febrile diseases; this S inclination of the patient had better be in' dulged, by the free use of good cold water; this recommendation is founded on twenty years experience and observation, and we have known no 'instance in the early stage of febrile disease, where it has produced injurious effects; but have often witnessed pleasurable and salutary operations on the patient by their drinking freely of cold water. Great errors have been committed by Medical Men, as well as by Nurses and Old Women; by prohibiting patients the use of cold water, while labonring under fe. brile diseases, and by endeavouring to confine them to the use of warm drinks or warm teas-With pain we often have witnessed the cruel effects of such a course,. while hearing patients beging for a little - cold water. During the prevalence of the Epidemic t of 1832, and 1834, we witnessed the most -.'.. -I~: :.... -.. i ~~--t 6 j happy effects from giving some of the patients a free indulgence in the use of this beverage; while by the influence of error or prejudice, they were generally debared frbm its use. In some instances they | iswallowed copious libations of it, and again threw it up, by which the burning thirst was allayed, and the Stomach washed out, the painful sensation of that organ, which was a common and fiequently a distressing symptom was releived, and by this and other means combined with it, the patient was soon in a state of convalsence. ai:'!; The following case was communircatied t to tie author, by one who was an ee oh. s rver of it, it is of importance enfough to - occupy a place here. During the preVile. ence of the Epidemic Cholera in the ---- County Poor House, a Maniac gwho was confined in a el!, got a ioient 'ttack of the disease; th- officers atnd inm 68 S Although cold water is a valuable reme" i dy in many cases and under suitable con-: ditions of the body; yet it is not a universal Panacea for all the," Ills that flesh is: heir to," to be used in all cases; as some very modern advocates of it seem to contend; for like many other remedial agents it may be very useful in curing diseases, or it may prove extremely injurious; The recommendations and use of it is not of so | ' very recent date, neither, as some Hydropathist writers would have the public beSlieve, for any one who will take the trouble Sto examine the writings of Currie-Rush, Wilson, Thomas, &c. &c., will find that cold water has been used in various ways S and recommended long ago. In an article which we wrote and published in 1826 on the disease of that year, there is Sthis remark, " the patient ought to be encouraged to drink freely, they have a prefer 69 "i )'ar ~~: ~' 1 D~~; ence for coldwater,in the use of which I have often had pleasure in seeing them freely in. dulged; notwithstanding the general prejudice against its use when taking Mercu__ 1_ 11_ ~ _ _ 1 ~ ". 1... rais, the been able and expel By frequ water, an taking me becoming is the app air to the use of Me p, 153.) iorce or this objection I nave not to discover; on the contrary facts ience prove it to be unfoundedently gargling the mouth with cold d drinking it if preferred, (while rcurials) we prevent the mouth sore, as it otherwise would; it lication of cold, either of water or skin, that is injurious during the rcurials (Treatise on Epidemics giving the medicines proposed in lal; to cold water may be added ted with it, Barley Tea, Gruel, Gruel, or simple vegetable Juices,.When the first or more severe ver, and the symptoms have abat,:::...:.."^......^.-.--:11*.- " ^ ~ ll While this Mani or alterna Oattmeal Whey & S stage is o o _4-~e 70 ed; articles containing a little more nourishmeft may be added, or substituted for the| preceeding ones mentioned. Those articles which ought to be avoided and abstained from, are Meat, or it had ought to be taken in moderate quantities only, and that of the light and tender kinds, it is best to boil or stew it; Coffee, Pepper j Mustard, Catsup and all kinds of spicery in S eluding Ginger, Pepper Saxe,, Lemonade and all acid drinks and all Vegatebls of a S spicy nature ought to be avoided. Those under treatment for Chronic dis S eases, ought particularly to avoid meat or to take only a very small portion of it, and that should be tender and plainly cooked, b, boiled or stewed is the best, seasoned only. with salt; avoid the use of Coffee, and all Sarticles of diet heretofore mentioned, use eivery sparingly or not at all, Acids, strong SCheese, fatty articles, Onions, Garlics and sqph like spicy, stimulant.

In short every thing should be avoided, whieh contains Medicinal, matter; no other medil! cine should be griven or taken during 01P timqe,,_except the one Homcopathic to, t e case, and selected forthe cure-All herb Teas, infusions of Vegetables, Syrups and Nostroms of what ever kind should be avoided. All perfumery, Axrq~patics and wha.evey would be likely to prodnce a, medical o9r countergcting influence, on the nerves o,qrgans of the patient, should be removed from the ropm, if the patient i. cordqred to a roonm, or be avoided-An important objqct tobe obtained, is to let the action of thq PsYstem and functions of the body, remain, a..calmi and quiet as possible, to allow np mdi al influence to take place, so as 72 give full chance and opportunity for the medicine administered, to produce its antidotal and specific salutary effects on the diseased organism, or morbid influence acting on the body-The mind should be S kept quite and cheerful as possible-In Chronic cases when it can be indulged in, a moderate share of labour or exercise, contributs very much to the success of the treatment. With a view of furnishing some facts and statements to shew the propriety, efficacy Sand success of this mode of treating diseases, we here introduce a few cases selected from a register and case book, accurately kept of about 1200 cases treated by us, embracing a large proportion of the S severe and violent diseases which have prevailed, mostly managed on the principles and by the remedies detailed in this Man, ual, out of which their have been ten deaths only. 73 NOTE in these cases we do not give a de. tail of the symptoms, and daily use or change of medicine; the object being to give the situation of the patient when we commenced tbe treatment; the general use --of remedies, and the result.
