with that universal panacea, cnlomcl, with such
unhounded success, tina, one or two panic struck,
scampered of and lett their patients with nature
aud her Intellectual efforts To repair the mischief
they had done. In one family, four cases re-
suited in death, in the short space OF four DAYS:
in some eases three ar four da, after the exhibi-
ton OF cnlonicl, great prostitution, tvmpnnitic
condition oi the abdomen, and perioration Of the
bowels were the result OF this heroic treatment,
and prove il SO to their weeping friends, post
