Mr. CHADwIcK-Dear Sir;--I have been reques
TED ny tho corresponding committee appointed at tho
recent temperance convention in your village, to com
munlcae, as briefly MS possible, through the medium
OF your paper my views in relation to tho use of al
co'o IN lis various FORMS as preventive and euro in
eryspelas, and other epidemic and contagious dis
cases.
That alcoholic drinks will not in all cases prevent
an attack of the prevailing epidemic disease is cer-
tain, for great numbers have been attacked BY this
disease who use them habitually and freely.
1t has long been my sott!ed conviction that the hab
ltua use of these dr INKS, by mparug the vital ener
g'es ofthe system and inducing arrangement in all
the vital functions greatly increased the liability to
be attacked by any prevailing disease, and greatly
diminished the probability of recovery when attacked
IT the disease is OF dangerous character and have
seen nothing during the prevalence ofthe present ep-
idennc calculated 10 change, but, the contrary,
much calculated to confirm this opinion.
AS n remedial agent, in the hands Of tho slirul
physician, alcohol is oilentimes very useful, under
certain circumstances in erysipelas and other dis
eases. But the physician alone under ordinary cir
cumsiances is competent to determine the proper
time and mode Of its administration. It's indscrmi-
nate use whether in the form of "brandy and salt,
or in any other form, be strongly depreca-
ted Yours truly,
