DIR. Brace Dear Sir: During the past
summer and fall, the various forms Of bill
ious Fever were very prevalent and often
fatal in this section Of country. Our wor-
thy none-such physicians, pulled up with
pride and vain c%onceit, persisted in their
Anticipated practice with that universal
panacea, calomel, with such unbounded
success, that one or two, panic-struck,
scanpered off and left their patients with
nature and her Intellectual efforts to repair
the mischief they had done. In one fam
lily, four cases resulted ii death, in the
short space of four days in some cases.
three or four days after the exhibition Of
calbmel, great prostration, %tympanitic con-
dition Of the abdomen, and perforation r.
