PathoIogY of Rheumatism.

A writer in one of the English Medical jour-
malls annalyzes the prevailing doctrines regard
ing the intimate nature Of rheumatism, and OBJ
scts with regard to the Tactic acid theory, which
may be said to be the one most generally pre-
vailing at present-f1t, that lactic-acid has not
been shown to be in excess in the blood Of rheu-
matte patients; second, that even Iupposing it
10 be present in excess, it would be difficult to
trace connection between this circumstance and
the eIHdations in and about the different fbrOus
structures of the body; third, that other acids
being in excess in the secretions, and therefore
possibly in the blood, they may be as much the
cause Of the phenomena as tactic acid; fourth,
that in regard TO the theory attributing the dis
ease to suppression of the cutaneous secretions,
it is doubtful whether it is preceded BY greater
suppression than the prodromata Of all inAamma-
tory diseases being with them; and ffth, that
the extreme tendency to sweating which occurs
during an acute attack eff the disease, may be
much better explained by another theory. In
order to establish theory of rheumatism, the
writer next Analyses the phenomena Of the dis
ease, and finds that fatigue, exposure to cold,
mental emotions, or some other depressing
agent, exercise paramount influence in its pro-
duction-febrile symptoms making their first
appearance, followed BY local elections in some
hbrous tissue.
