FASHIONS FOR JULY

(Teorn the London and Paris Ladies' Magazine of Fashion.)
NEGLIGE.—Robe of batiste de laine, poussiere,
and collar a chile, and plain
suave bonnet edged, and with plaid
ribbon; scarf of black silk, with frill of the same.
DE VISITE.—Rob€ of barge in pattern of pale
corsage and sleeves a petites coulisses. and deep
tucks edged with fringe. Black taffetas scarf, with ruche.
Bonnet of crape fronce violette of lace and flowers, cor-
responding with the dress ; handkerchief with inlets of
Valenciennes, manchettes and collar trimmed with Valets-
corsages continue to be made tight, and with
grand' mere a 1' Amazon, with gimp trim-
lose a chile or revers, are also worn ; for young
menerally square, or with folds ; and in thin
made a coulisses. Tight sleeves still
maintain their ground, but they are variously ornamented,
and the small gigot of moderate fulness at the shoulder, and
tight on the lower part of the arm, is fashionable.
Generally speaking, tucks have replaced flounces, though
they are sometimes used for tall figures ; tucks are frequently
edged either with fringe or lace, or folds rise en tablier, en
echelle, or in a wave ; for silk pinked ruches are used, and on
muslins, inlets of Valenciennes, and embroidery.
Dresses of pink or blue organdy, worked in tambour, with
silk of the same colour, are very pretty for public dejeuners.
Organdys of deep blue are quite the rage in Paris.
Scarfs continue to be worn in every variety ; the most
elegant are of lace, Ottomane velvet, and real cachernere,
with plain centres and pine ends, or figured in Asiatic bou-
quets; then follow those of foulard, shaded silks, barege,
muslin, &c. &c. The newest and most fashionable style of
pocket-handkerchief is with inlets of Valenciennes all round.
Bonnets are now much ornamented, lace and flowers inter-
mixed ; the form continues small, partaking very much of
the capote. Straw bonnets, trimmed with velvet of two
colours, with ruche inside, are pretty. Leghorns are mostly
ornamented with lace, or wreaths a la Ceres, in poppies,
daisies, &c. ; honeysuckle is also seen, but the most
elegant
are those of hydrangea in every colour.

NEWTON BRANCH OF -THE PROVINCIAL
DICAL AND SURGICAL ASSOCIATION,

The fifth anniversary of the Newton Branch of the Pro-
vincial Medical and Surgical Association was held at Newton
yesterday week. The business of the day commenced with
a preliminary meeting of the council at eleven o'clock in the
forenoon, and soon after twelve the retiring president, Saml.
M'Cullock, Esq., of Liverpool, took the chair. At this time
there were assembled a number of the most respectable and

influential medical practitioners in this part of the kingdom,
amongst others we noticed Thomas Jet Treys, M.D., David
Baird, M.D., William Duncan, M.D., J. M. Banner, Esq.,

•
Hugh'Neill, Esq., of Liverpool; Edward Holine, M.D., F.
L. S. Edmund Lyon, M.D., G. A. Chaytor, M.D., Robert
Thorpe, Esq., Joseph Jordan, Esq., of Manchester; Wm.
Twemlow, Esq., of Northwich ; James Kendrick, M.D.,
F. L. S.. John Sharp, Esq., and G. H. Hardy, Esq., of
Warrington.
Mr. M'CuLLocit, in opening the meeting, regretted the
absence of the president elect, Dr. Llewellyn Jones, of
Chester, (from whom a letter, apologising for his unavoida-
ble absence, was read,) and stated that the duties of his
office would necessarily devolve upon his friend, Dr. Baird,
who, he had no doubt, would discharge them with satisfac-
tion to the meeting.
Dr. BAinn, on taking the chair, made a few observations
on the unexpected position in which he found himself placed,
and concluded by calling upon Mr. Hardy, one of the secre-
taries, for the report of the council, which he read. From
amongst a variety of topics, chiefly relating to the proceed-
ings of the association during the past year, its finances, &c.
we select the following passages as having a more particular
reference to the profession generally, or to the community
in which this branch is placed :
" Your Council have had great pleasure in observing the
rapid progress which the question of Medical Reform has
made during the past year. Besides the three principal
Medical Corporations, most of the other chartered Colleges
have admitted the necessity of extensive changes and
amendments, and the well directed efforts of the various
Medical Associations have forced the consideration of this
all important subject upon the Legislature itself.
" Still it is manifest that the present state of this question
is such as to demand the most careful and judicious ma-
nagement; and the future steps to be taken in pursuit of the
highly desirable end we have in view will require mature de-
liberation, and a comprehensive survey of the opinions and
sentiments of all parties concerned.
" The error which has hitherto pervaded much that has
been done relative to medical reform, has been a too great
haste in the devising of the specific plans upon which such
reforms should be conducted."
" But the calm and temperate manner in which the Provin-
cial Medical and Surgical Association has entered upon this
great work, has done much to counteract this evil; and at
the anniversary meeting which will shortly be held in York,
we are informed that " the Reform Committee," which it
had previously appointed, "will be prepared with a report,

which members are requested. to give a careful perusal, be-
fore they make up their minds as to the course which the
association should pursue in endeavouring to obtain an im-
proved system of medical polity." Whatever course that
may be, the spirit, which has hitherto characterised all its
proceedings in reference to this subject, entitle it to the con-
fidence and respect of every member of the Medical profes-
sion, and holds out strong encouragement to believe in the
ultimate success of its exertions.

" Before closing this report, your council wish to notice, in
terms of high commendation the efforts which have been
made to establish a Sea-bathing Infirmary for the poor of
this and the neighbouring counties. Such an institution
would constitute an important and valuable adjunct to our
medical charities ; for not only would their funds be relieved
from the burthen of dispensing large quantities of medicine
to a numerous class of patients, without any commensurate
advantage to the cases themselves ; but it would also enable
us effectually to relieve hundreds of our fellow-creatures,

who are at present compelled to drag out a miserable exist-
ence for want of that health-creating stimulus which sea air
and sea-buthing, are alone capable of affording, and which

no course of medicine, however judiciously prescribed and
administered, is at all calculated to supersede. Your Coun-
cil, therefore, would earnestly entreat every member of this
association to exert his utmost influence to further this phi-
lanthrophic undertaking—for they feel assured, that there is
not a village, or town in this district, in which such an insti-
tution may not be made one of the greatest blessings to
many. It has been a source of regret to them, that no prac-
tical good should have hitherto resulted from the highly re-
spectable and influential meeting which was held some time
ago in Manchester ; and it is to be feared that the neglect
of filing upon some convenient site may have, for a while,
defeated its benevolent object. It is hoped, however, that
the individuals, who then interested themselves, will not
relax in their efforts, confident as they are, that success
must ultimately reward them."

The report was unanimously adopted.
It was then agreed that a special meeting of the council be
called on the last Thursday in September, for the purpose of
making arrangements, which may be more effectual in pro-
moting the scientific objects of the branch, and affording
,uch local information, which is what ought to be considered
one of the leading features of every branch in connection
with the Parent Association.

The appointment of officers for the ensuing year was the
next business gone into. Dr. Kendrick, of 'Warrington, was
elected President, Dr. Lyon, of Manchester, and J. M.
Banner, lisq., of Liverpool. Vice-Presidents, and Messrs.
Sharp and Hardy, General Secretaries.
A long discussion ensued touching the propriety of adopt-
ing a proposal made by Dr. Cowan, of Reading, to make it
compulsory upon every associate to subscribe 5s per annum
to the Benevolent Fund. The meeting were unanimously
opposed to the proposition, and they also expressed them-
selves in strong terms on the impropriety of any of the branch
associations being allowed to make a deduction from the
subscriptions to meet the local expenses.
Dr. BAIRD having vacated the chair, which was then oc-
cupied by Mr. Thorp, of Manchester, proceeded to read a
paper upon Delirium Tremens. After some prefatory re-
marks, he stated that in the year 1831, when he was physic-
ian to the Liverpool Lunatic Asylum, two cases of delirium
tremens died suddenly after a fit of screaming ; one was under
his own care, the other a under the care of another physician
of the infirmary. He observed that as there was no general
rule of treatment established for this disease, and as the go-
vernor, Mr. Owen, stated that several such occurrences had
taken place under his predecessor's superintendence, he was
induced to try, in various proportions, a combination of the
more powerful remedies which had been generally recom-
mended, and occasionally found to be successful, in order to
cut short the disease, and prevent a recurrence of similar
catastrophes. With this view he gave calomel, opium, and
tartarised antimony, in various proportions, and repeated
them every hour, for five or six hours, and afterwards at
longer intervals, assisting them by croton oil, or castor oil,
or the infusion of senna and gentian, supporting the powers
of life, by ammonia, tether, and camphor, and in very ex-
hausted habits allowing porter, but forbidding in strong
terms, a continuance of the accustomed stimulus. By this
plan f treatment he was enabled to cut short the disease and
produce convalescence in the space of 8, 10, or 12 hours, in
upwards of fifty cases since the year 1834. He then ob-
served that all the cases were in the last or violent stage of
the malady, and detailed the symptoms as they appeared to
him, as well as the circumstances of two cases, which he
denominated exceptions. One, a robust, middle-aged man,
who had been three days ill before seen, and just come out
of a fit, whose pulse was imperceptible, and on whom medi-
dine had no effect. The other had been the subject of seve-
ral previous attacks, and having suppressed by violent mea-
sures, a discharge from his legs, he fell into a comatose state,
out of which he could not be recovered. The doctor then
proceeded to observe, that he had intended to have stopped
here, but when he found that it was the practice of the coun-
cil of the Medico-Chirurgical Society of London, not to re-
ceive any case to which no remarks were appended, he
thought he could not do better than follow the suggestions
of the council of a society so long and so justly celebrated for
the many valuable communications which its members have
fnrnished to the profession. He would, therefore, by trac-
ing the origin and progress of the symptoms, and from the
effect of the remedies, attempt to deduce some idea or ex-
planation of the cause of a disease, upon which all authori-
ties agreed in opinion that the appearances on dissection
did not afford such information as would tend to remove the
obscurity which continues to hang over the nature of the morbid
processes. He then detailed the progressive steps of the
drunkard, from the taking of the first glass of spirituous
liquor to the final outbreak of the malady; and also the
symptoms which indicated a progressive increase of disorder
in the mucous membrane of the stomach, bowels, and biliary
system. He canvassed the views of the different authorities
who have written upon the subject, some of whom had seen
the disease to arise from other causes than drunkenness. He
adduced the opinion of Dr. Craigie and other pathologists,
to prove that pain in the irritated or disordered state of the
mucous membrane of the digestive organs was never felt in
proportion to the degree of irritation, and that irritations
produced by articles of food and drink, and by morbid and
unnatural secretions, without giving rise to pain in the course
of the canal, produce in various organs unusual sensations
and pherromena. He quoted from Mr. Jenning's report upon
the chemistry of the blood, to show that the sanguineous,
nervous, and digestive systems may be, and are frequently,
all affected at the same time and in the same person ; and
that no one system can be long disordered without inducing
disorder in others ; and, to decide which system is primarily
or secondarily affected, is, at once, the most important and
most difficult problem the medical practitioner is called upon
to solve. He then proved by a survey of all the cases which
he had treated, and from analogous cases, that the nervous
and celebral symptoms did not begin to subside until their
bowels began to be relieved of their dark-coloured and offen-
sive contents, and thence inferred that the excessive and con-
tinuous use of spirituous liquors was, first to induce a morbid
condition of the nervous membrane of the stomach, bowels,
and biliary system, and that the nervous and cerebral affec-
tions were only gradually reduced by the long continuance in
the use of the stimulus. He combated the idea of the disease
being of an inflammatory nature, but had met with cases
complicated with inflammation of the lungs. He believed it
to be essentially a disease of irritation, because it may con-
tinue for some time, subside, and again occur, without leav-
ing any visible organic change, which inflammation would
not do,—because the loss of blood is generally fatal in this
disease, and does good in inflammation • and because dis-
section does not show the usual results dinflammation, but
generally morbid appearances in the biliary and digestive ap-
paratus. Dr. Baird then took the opportunity of observing
upon an opinion which, he said, was pretty generally enter-
tained
by the public and the profession, and by several au-
thorities who have written upon the subject, that the stimulus
which has produced the disease should not be withdrawn,
but continued during the treatment. In refutation of this
opinion, he brought forward the facts of the very rapid and
satisfactory manner in which the cases recovered in the
asylum, where the stimulus was wholly withdrawn, and where
only porter was allowed in a few cases ; and also the circum-
stances of a case which he attended with Mr. Jorie, of Liver-
pool, where the plan of treatment which he had recommended
failed, in consequence of the use of spirituous liquors being
continued ; for upon the same plan of treatment being again
adopted without the stimulus, a perfect state of convales-
cence in less than twelve hours was the result. He stated
that he was in possession of the facts of various other cases to
prove his views, and concluded with a hope that the plan of
treatment might be as successful in the hands of the mem-
bers as it had proved in his, so that a general rule of treat-
ment might be established in at least one of the diseases
which have arisen to afflict humanity.
Mr. BANNER, of Liverpool, stated that he agreed gene-
rally with the principles and views detailed by Dr. Baird,
and also with the plan of treatment which he advocates. He
had always found great advantage from due attention being
paid to the state of the bowels. There were two points upon
which the paper was deficient, the moral treatment, and the
subject of restraint, which he presumed had been adopted,
the cases being in an asylum. He had derived advantage
from the suggestions of a medical friend from Dublin, who
said lie had discovered that patients in this disease had a par-
tiality for one individual in a family, through whom the mind
of the patient might be judiciously operated upon, and he
had always found the greatest possible good to arise from en-
trusting the medical management to this particular individual.
With reference to restraint, he had no doubt that violent
cases, in their struggles to get free, had frequently died.
Dr. • , in reply, said, he could not see the slightest
possible
chance of any good to be expected from Mr. Ban-
ner's moral view. According to his experience, the patients
were generally
suspicious of every person, and rather obsti-
nate if opposed, and
or to do what the best way to get them to take medi-
cine,was wished for, was to do the very oppo-
site. As to restraint, h
marked upon it, because re Was
glad that Mr. Banner had re -
it t
c gave
ie him an opportunity of stating
to the members, that it had
resVaint as possible in the caseesnolf practice to use as little
insanity,tr and he had for-
bid it altogether in the cases of delirium tremens.
Mr. Mr. NOTTINGHAM, formerly House Surgeon to the Liver-
pool Infirmary, begged to offer a few remarks upon theap-

pearanees in dWection ; in several eaae3 which he had had
an oppcirtnnity' of inspecting, be found the brain in general
paler than natural, and no turgescence of the vessels, the
lining membrane of the alimentary canal in a state of con-
gestion. In one which died suddenly, when under restraint,
a blood-vessel was found to be ruptured internally.
The thanks of the meeting were unanimously voted to Dr.
Baird for his excellent essay.
Dr. BAIRD communicated to the meeting a case in which
the carbonate of ammonia had cured an eruption of the skin,
with blood pouring from the eruptions, which had been oc-
casioned by excessive intoxication, produced by the drinking
of new rum.

Dr. JEFFREYS stated that he still continued to have the
same good opinion of the plant matico, in external bleeding,
vessels, as he had expressed last year, and fully expected fur-
ther information upon it, and probably further supplies, by
the arrival of a family from Valparaiso, in the course of this
very month of June ; but he regretted to say, that the wife of
the gentleman being seriously ill, their return to this coun-
try is for a time postponed. The genuine plant being only to
be had in quantities from Peru, and not in Chili, renders it
difficult to obtain it. Having, however, three sources from
whom he expects aid in procuring it, he still is in anxious
hopes of further supplies, sufficient to satisfy the demands of
bis professional and inquiring friends.
Dr. KENDRICK said he had last year taken up, perhaps,
too much of their time by the introduction of questions aris-
ing out of small pox and vaccination. He had since fur-
nished the members of the Branch Association with a list of
queries, and he should now be happy if any gentleman had
any remark to make, or question to ask relative to those
queries. There was one thing he wished particularly to point
out, the necessity of ascertaining, with some degree of accu-
racy, the cause of the discordancy in the reports of fatal cases
of small pox occurring after vaccination. The army reports
calculated them at 12 per cent. ; Dr. Gregory first at 10, and
now at 7 ; Rouchoux at 1 per cent. ; Villeneuve at 1 in 61 ;
the Rev. Edward Sibson, the incumbent of Ashton, who had
taken great pains to come at an accurate calculation of what
had occurred in his own district, stated that the number of
deaths did not average more than one per cent. According
to his (Dr. K.'s) own experience, only one in two hundred
and fifty terminated fatally. This was a very material differ-
ence, and he was anxious to know to what cause it was to
be attributed ; for if such reports were not founded in
truth, they did great injury to the cause of vaccination with
the public. The Ist query was, were not a number of spu-
rious cases registered as genuine ? 2d, Was there any
thing in the particular locality in which those cases occur-
red ? Next, Did they arise from the severity of the prevail-
ing epidemic ? Next, Did they arise from any peculia-
rity of constitution in the individuals where the decease
proved fatal ? Another, and more important question was,
did the fatal consequences arise from any peculiarity in the
mode of treatment? He had heard of a number of cases at
a distance, in which the event had proved fatal, and he had
observed in all of them that one mode of treatment had been
adopted—the free evacuation of blood from the arm at the
commencement of the disease, arising probably from the
delirium with which the eruptive fever was attended, by
which the strength of the patients was so diminished as not
to carry them safely through the disease. It was his opinion
that the delirium attendant upon modified small pox was
that of celebral excitement—not celebral inflammation—and
that, therefore, bleeding was not necessary, but, perhaps,
injurious. The delirium in these cases was distinguishable,
first, by its early appearances; second, its occasional vio-
lence ' • and thirdly, by the peculiar fcetor of the breath,
which was so remarkable as not to be mistaken.

Shortly after three o'clock the members present sat down
to a dinner embracing every luxury of the season. On the
withdrawal of the cloth the usual loyal toasts were drank
with the usual honours. " Success to the Newton branch
of the Association, and the health of Dr. Kendrick, its
founder." " Dr. Hastings the founder of the Parent Asso-
ciation," " Mr. M'Culloch, the late President," " the
Chairman and Vice-Chairman," together with hearty good
wishes for the success of the profession in Liverpool and
Manchester, together with some other toasts, equally well
adapted to the occasion, were afterwards drank. The com-
pany separated shortly after six o'clock.

DURHANI CITY ELECTION, June 29.—(From our Cor-
respondent.)—Our election has passed otf quietly to-day.
T. C. Granger, Esq., the radical barrister, was proposed by
the Rev. Thos. Richard Shipperdson, Rector of St. Mary-
le-Bow, Durham, and seconded by Mr. John Hardinge
Veitch, Editor of the Durham Chronicle. Captain Fitzroy
was proposed by Major Chipchase, seconded by William
Henderson, Esq. Both candidates addressed the electors at
considerable length. Vulgar personality was the distinguish-
ing characteristic of Mr. Granger's speech, and sound rea-
soning and gentlemanly language that of Captain Fitzroy's.
No other candidate having been proposed, the Mayor de-
clared Mr. G. and Captain F. duly elected, and they were
shortly afterwards chaired through the principal streets of
the city. Thus has ended an election which, a week ago'
was confidently expected to terminate in the return of two
conservatives—a result which, most assuredly, would have
been realised but for the flight of Mr. Sheppard, who,
through groundless fears or some other unexplained cause,
fled when the victory was all but won, without having con-
sulted either friend or agents
CARLISLE BOROUGH ELECTION, June 30.—(Front our
Correspondent.)—The polling began with considerable spirit
on both sides, and Mr. Sergeant Goulburn had for some
time the advance of his opponent, Mr. Marshall ; but
towards the middle of the day some powerful influence was
brought to bear upon the £lO constituency, and at the close
of the poll the numbers were,
Goulburn (Cons.)
Howard
Marshall

The freemen gave an almost undivided support to the con-
servative candidate. The chartists did not go to the poll.
Although the canvass of Mr. Sergeant Goulburn justified
the expectation that the result would have been different, yet
the number of broken promises sufficiently explain the cause
of this borough remaining to the whigs. There has not been
a contest for Carlisle since 1827, and the registration has not
been much attended to. The number of freemen entitled to
be on the register is not less than 100, and they are decidedly
conservative in their political principles.
