About fortnight after his recovery he was
seized with, drowsiness, and for sometime after
slept nearly two-thirds of the day. This disease
Continued to increase until he would sleep two
or three days wilnout waking. When we saw
him Yesterday, he was continuing an uninter-
rupled seepo FIVE days. His pulse is regular,
though not very full, his respiration is easy
aud natural and his skin moist and cool. II

words, struck q lady who was IN the room vlu-
