Fever and Ague,

from which mankind suffer over large part OF
the globe, is the consequence of diseased action
in the system, induced by the poisonous miasIn OF
vegetable decay. This exhalation is evolved by
the action of solar heat on wet SOIL and rises with
the watcry vapor from it. While the sun is below
the horizon this vapor fingers near the earh's sur
face, and the virus is taken with it through the
lungs into the blood. There it acts as an irritating
poison on the internal viscera and excreting organs
of the body. The liver becomes torpid and fails to
secrete not only this virus, but also the lille from
the blond. Both the virus and the lille accumulate
IN the circulation, and produce violent constitil-
tional disorder The spleen, the Kidneys. and the
stomach sympathize with the liver, and became
dis1rdered also. Finally, the instinct of our
ylnis:n, as If in an attempt to expel the noxious
infusion. concentrates the whole blood of the body
IN the Internal excretores to force them to east it
,at. The blood leaves the surface, and rushes 70
the central organs with conges,ive violence. This
= the CHILL. But in this Effort it fails. Then the
FEVER follows in which the blood leaves the cen
trail organs and ru5hes to the surface, as if in
another cor. to cxpel the irritating poison through
that other great excretory-fhe skin. In this
also it falls and the system abandons the attempt
exhausted. and waits for the recovery of strength
to repeat .lc hopeless effort another day. These
src the fits or paroxysms of FEVER AND AGUE.
