except the regular and well educated members of the
medical profession In thus disseminating among the
many branch of knowledge which has hitherto
been confined to the few he need not repeat that he
considers this information to be Of vital Importance
and inestmable value to his fellow men. What can
be Of more importance to mankind in the present life,
than knowledge Of those diseases which are con-
tnually bringing it to close? And of what know
ledge ought mankind 10 be SO thoroughly possessed,
knowledge of The maladies to which their own
persons are exposed The first diseases which DR..
William Evans will describe in this Second Part ofhis
Pathology some of the species of the Genus Lii
mosis, OF Morbid Appetite which forms the fifth Ge
nus OF the Order Enerica, of the class CGlaca and
treat OF the principal diseases of the digestive function
and Alimentary canal. Limosis Cardialaga or Car
dialgy an impaired appetite, with gnawng or burn
ing pam IN the stomach or epi iyastrium and endsn-
cy to FAINT This species differs from dyspepsy,
which Will be described in its proper order, al
though Cardlalgy is sometimes an attendant OfDys-
pepsia, as it is of multitude of other complaints
The first symptom is heartburn, a gnawing or
burning uneaslness, chiefly felt near the cardia with
a slight tendency TO faint. The second symptom is
an extension of the pain to the pit of the stomach
anxiety nausea, coldness of the extemities failure
of the strength, and great tendency faint. This
is called syncoptica, or sinking heartburn. The third
symptom is an extension of the burning sensation
over the whole region of the stomach, accompanied
with the rising of watery fluid, usually insipd, bat
sometimes acrld, which is called the water trash.
The first symptom is most common, and affects both
sexes. In the male, it frequently caused by the
of splrituous liquors, obstructed perspraen depra-
we'd bile, excessive of purgatve medicine. In
females, by pregnancy the use Of too copous guam
ties of very warm or very cold drinks animal fat,
butter decayed cheese and sometimes by night
watching and care ofmnd. In children its freqnen-
| ly caused by worms and unrpe fruit.
The first remedy is good aromatic tonic, for
whilst magnesa and soda which are commonlytl-
ken in this case will seldom relieve it for than
| half an hour, two or three of the CAMOMILE
PILLS, taken in good draHght of moderately warm,
water have almost invariably accomplished a cure;
Their effect on the heartburn of pregnancy, and of
children, is always successful. Two of these pills,
taken during the height of the symptoms, will gene
rally relieve them Immediately, and two of the beau
| full APERIENT FAMILY PILLS. taken at bedtime,
will remove it for considerable time even in habits
that are most subject it. q Limosis Flatss or fla
tulency, impaired appetite with accumulation of
wind in the stomach and intestinal canals and fre-
quent regurgtation Great restlessness anxiety and
oppression attend this disease, which has sometimes
produced not only Mysteries, but sufocation 1t is
frequently caused by drinking large quantity of cold
fluid when the system is highly heated and by eats
ing cucHmbers, radshes Salads onions and other
raw vegetables In young infants, it arises from the
inability of their tender stonachs to digest the great
| quantity of foed with which they are overloaded and
the best remedy for it is to feed them for time on
maternal milk alone. Adult persons Of either sex,
need only take few of the CAMOMILE PILLS. to
experience speedy relief Their carminave and aro-
matcpropertes alone independently of their high tonic
action would produce this effect, with certainty and
| speed.
