FEVER AND AGTE
POSit6UeIy CMred!!!

NEVER and Ague is inostobstinate dis
ease, and in warm and humid climates.
frequently resists every ordinary mode oil
cure, SO as to become very distressing to the
patient; and bv the extreme debility which
the disease induces, it often gives rise 10
other chronic complaints. Marsh miasmata
or the effluvia arising from stagnant water,
is the most frequent exciting cause of the
disease; and one Of its great pecularities is
its susceptibility Of renewal from very
slight causes, such as from the prevalencs
of an easterly wind-even without the re-
petion of the original existing cause. In
this, Fever and Ague differs from must other
fevers; as it is well known, that after an or
binary fever has once occurred, and been
removed, the person affected is not so liable
to fresh attack as one who was not so af-
fected. These circumstances render it ex-
tremely difficult to effect a permanent cure
of Fever and Ague, though to reliepe the pa
tient for the time being is very easy task.
