CoMMUNICATIoN.

LOCKED JAw.-For the benefit of
mankind, correspondent wishes to com
municate the following narrative to the
pub;ic Til some years past, spending
an evening with afriend very respectable
master of a ship--a man of great informa-
ton, acquired by reading and visiting many
different countries, the conversation hap
paned to turnS upon that dreadful maIadv
the Locked Jaw, when he observed, that
some time before be had been on voyage
to the island of ST. Eustatia, and while there
became acquainted witch physician of the
first eminence, on that island, and that he
heard him observe, in company, upon the
subject Of the Locked Jaw, which was in
troduced, in the course of conversation, by
a person present, that he had, during his
practice, many eases, and that he had never
lost patient with it. This assertion sur
prised the captain, and led him to enquire of
the physician his particular mode OF treat
n.ent, ~ which he had been SO successful /;
to which he readily replied-That he di-
rected an application Of warm Lye, made
of Ashes. as strong as possible; ii the foot
or hand was wounded, the same to be dipt
repeatedly into the Lye-and if part Of
the body which could not be immersed in it,
then ia that case, the part affected to be
bathed with flannels wrung out from the
warm I've. In consequence OF the like re-
mark being recollected to have been heard
by lad, who lived in the captains family,
the following facts are now communicated
to the public, with "a pleasing hope, that
they may prove beneficial to some unhappy
object in future day.
Captain CHARLES GoRToN, OF this town,
master of vessel, aged 80 years, active
and enterprising, being busted about ms
vessel on the 9th day Of July, 1907, TIE
weather warm, on some occasion, jumped,
with great ABILITY from her side, which was
high above the wharf where she lay, very
unfortunately upon large heavy plank,
from which projected rusty spike 6 inches
in length, and with a scraggy point with
$, h force, that a spike pierced through
the sole of pair of boots he then had on,
almost new, and would have gone quite
through his foot, had not the upper leather
OF his boot prevented 1t; every exertion OF
his own. to extricate himself from the plank
to which he was thus pinned fast, failing,
two stout men, who were on the wharf,
being called to his assistance, with great
difficulty relieved HMM the most excru-
ciating torture he was assisted in getting
home-A physician was. called in and adj
ministered but without effect, when the a.
bove mentioned lady hearing of the acct
dent very humanity repaired to capt. Cor
tons house and recommended a trial OF the
I've, which. was Immediately procured
from aleech, which had been luckily set in |
the family afew days before-his wounded !
foot was put into the Lye, previously warm
ed, and surprising was the effect, within hi
teen minutes the anguish was taken out, ne
went to bed and slept quietly. The next
and for ten days, morning and evening, the
application ofthe lye was made-no pam
