The Delta in an excoriating article upon
Quacks, relates the following incident:
A few days ago a strange case came under our
immediate observation, which will illustrate our
remarks sufficiently to convince the most skep.
tical of their melancholy truth. A printer had
been attacked by yellow fever, and went home
in time to check its progress if proper assistance
had been summoned. His friends called in a
pretended physician, who was the trumpeter of
his own skill, and promised an immediate cure
if his orders were followed to Z letter. The
patient had been some hours si6E land the fever
Was at its height, when the 'Doctor" prescribed
for him a plate of tapioca pudding aud a bottle
of port wine. We state 4 fact to which many
persons can bear testimony. Of course, an
hour or two after this original medicine had been
taken, the patient was a corpse, and the physi.
clan consoled his friends by assuring them
that he was a "bad case" cnuld'nt he cured,
bound to die, and the lesss said about it the
better. Such things happen, and worse things
in this intelligent city, and in this remarkable
age OF progress, when everything is understood
from the mysteries Of medicine to the secrets
OF the other world.
