SIR,--I have the honor to inform your
excellency, that since the report Of the
I'd Oct. general Bonaparte has complain
ed OF dull pain in the right side, ae
|companied with sensation of heat in the
same place. and occasionally simila,
sense of pain in the right shoulder. A
|tumefaction is also evident to the sigh
and touch in the right side; but | have
not yet been able to determine, whether
lit proceed from an enlargement Of tn,
liver or is external to it. As he has no
since the last report been entirely free
from pain, it is most probable that The
complaint is chronick hepatitis.
