Si:scuts' LITIJARGY.—HufeIand, the celebrated nhv-
aician has caused the following article to be inserted in a
Berlin paper of the 23d February :—" The public prints
lately spoke of a remarkable lethargy which has lasted for
some time. That of a young girl of Nedebach, in West-
phalia, may be counted still more astonishing, it having
lasted 45l days. As this malady scems to be more frequent
I than formerly, I look upon it as an imperative duty to re-
cal to mind the effects of galvanism, which is certainly in
such a case the most efficacious remedy, of which I had
positive proof in a case in which I was concerned twenty
years ago at Berlin. A young girl, twenty years of age,
had already passed six weeks in a sleep like death. It
was with the greatest difficulty that she wu made to
swallow some thin gruel. Tier pulse could hardly be
felt. All manner of [external irritation had been applied
in vain ; at last I had recourse to galvanism—at first it
had little effect, but one of the conductors having been
placed on the pit of the stomach and the other in the left
ear, in about two minutes her face, which till then had
been pale, coloured—her eyes opened, the young girl sat
upright, and pronounced the word " father." She has
since perfectly recovered her activity and the lethargy has
not again returned.--.lourna/ des Debuts.
