Hum TO CHAAIrAGDIR DRINKEIIS.—Of all the wines of
Franct,:none-deiervedly hold so a high a rank as those of Cham-
pagne; and none where the constitution is sound, is mote
healthy; yet, -strange to say, one hundred and twenty-eight
years of discussion-were necessary for the physicians of France
Wove-they entneto.a decision that they were not the cause pf.
Out. 1i.16,52 the School of Medicine of Paris-began a most
violent controversy, and in the year 1788 the decision, of the fa-
culty was publicly given, -that Champagne was the finest wine
of Franco.. The public, hoWever, had not welted for the ver-
dict, but had given its testimony in favour of the delicious wine,
by enjoying' all its rich qualities, and it has ratified" the judg
ment of the learned doctors by drinking the wine with great
avidity: Many judges declare the Champagne best that does
rot effervesce; still no quality of wine is so healthy as that
which sparkles, and the taking -the contents of the glass whilst
the action is ring on-is-of- some importance, in many „states:of
the system. The...carbonic acid -gas that is evolved is quickly
imbibed by the stomach, and assists very much in reducing the
blood when it is highly arterialised, and "hence incapable of
giving to the liver that quantity of carbon which the venous
blood should contain. It is a wine peculiarly adapted for fe-
males on- this account; there are particular moments at which
venous blood should circulate in -their veins more highly car-,
bonised than usual.- The slight excitement of the cerebral sys-
tem that is'prorlated fry Champagne is very transient, nor is it-
without a useful effect occasionally; -but 'of all the dreadful
states that intoxication can produce, none are so terrific as those
which ocCriefrom-drinking of this wine to excess. The state of,
congestion;of the blood in the brain is such, as to-give reason to
fear that -sudden death may occur; for extravasation is the result.
Various phrinfaties, connected with the organt of sight, arise in
the minds of itinse-who have taken Inordinate quantities of this
wine; this may he derived-from the partial effusion or pressure
of blood nn the thoroiti-coat. The-sense of hearing too becomes
confused; and also the touch is- affected, and where delirium
tremens has occurred, in Champagne drinkeis, it has almost
always been accompanied by a belief that strange sights are
seen ; that clnspirators are heard plotting, or that animals ere-
ct/tailing over the body. Champagrie-bas the effect of causing
i:eid to be deposited ; and whether this, under the shape of
rid gravel, is to tie consideredna effort of nature to expel a for-
midable enemy, or whether it be itself a disease, is a subject
‘"‘,l, may admit of much discussion, into which I cannot now
