DRUNKENNESS IN THE BRITISH ARMY.
FROM TIE Le~do. Timer, Eos5
In our correspondence yesterday from the British
hospital at Renkis occurs, quite by the way, and with
the simplest intentions, prGPos OF some sndrinksole
water, the following passage:
"In this country il is quite unsafe 70 patake espe
ciay during the heat of the day Of smu ating drinks
of .ny description. Those whs indulge in beer or
srrts cor stauly suer especially when leading inact
i've lives from diarhes, which is at first beneficial,
acting as safeguard to prevent congestion Of blood
in the head lungs but after sperlod OF longer or
shorter duration the lining membrane of the intesunes
becomes liberated, when dysentery enlues and the
patient very co nmoby dies.
1t need hardly be observed that this is only what has
been stated thousand times. tappean, on unques.
opable evidence in almost every page OF the cholera
blue books" All unhealthy conditions of locality
or atmosphere have invariably told most upon those
who had enfeebed their systems by the excessive ue
of stimulants. The of spirits In particular Is The
baue Of great cities In the hospitals Of Edinburgh
ard Glasgow there is hardly patient , wi1hods "a
comes premsturely old, and neither comes up
10 the southern idea Of his stature nor CON-
pletes the allotted period Of IF, under the In
ceesant attacks Of this insidious foe. That some
sort of stimulus Is necessary when extrsOrdi-
nary demand to be made On the strength, excess
i've cold or damp 10 be endured, and tha' some con-
.tiiuIions can bear more than other we not emily
acuit but main ain; but these are the very re isons
vky that stimulus especially in the shape Of spirits,
should not he duged IN ordinary and uniformly, for
days AND monte together, by the hard headed and
well eesoped Scotch sergeant and the Eng lsh lad
fresh from biz masters small beer or perhaps the VII
lage pump. The history OF war IN all sges continually
relates how anes that I'D stood marches and seges,
ard were inyineib foe fro without, succunDed,
