Statistics of Diptheria.

MEssRs. EDITORS While reviewing
some OF my medical journals, happened
to alight upon the statistics given by five
Physio- Medical physicians, as the result
of their practice in this terrible malady :
also, the reports of three Allopathists
and while meditating upon the vast diff
ference Of the amount OF life saved be-
tween the two schools, althrought struck
me, that it might be, interesting to your
readers to see an estimate of the two
systems in treating, with success, this
fearful disease. The reports Of both
classes are very meagre, but the foll5w.
ing will serve to give an idea Of which
is the superior system in treating this
disease. In giving this estimate, l shall
also include my own practice.
The statistics are as follows
The Wyandot pioneer. (Upper Sandusky, Ohio) 1853-1868, 1865-03-29

Thus we see that out Of the 667 cases
treated. Allopathy would lose 100 more
lives than would be lost, in the same
number of cases, by Physio- Medi calism.
Now, let us suppose, upon arough esti+
mate, that every Allopathist in the U. s.
should treat, on an average, six cases 10
year, which would be a very low esti
mate during an Epidemic In our coun
try there are over 100000 Allopathic
physicians, which would give 24O,O 900
cases of diptheria. Judging their sue
cess by the approximate success of the
above three gentlemen, and they would
lose 39,940 patients in year. Give the
same 100000 patients into the hands Of
Physico- Medicalists, and their loss, ac-
cording to the first table, would be 799
II gross figures, at the low estimate of
six cases to each Allopatbic physician,
in the course of years epidemic, the
" regular" system would lose 3S,l4lI
more lives, in this single malady, than
would be lost under Physio Medical treat
ment. Truly, this is paying high price
for sustaining popularity. qa@ j
But the epidemic differs in severity at
various places, and circumstances sur
rounding patients may also vary in a
manner that will influence results; hence
it may be contended that the three Allo-
pathic gentlemen should notbe taken to-
gether. To accommodate this idea, let
us isolate the different physicians prac-
ticing in the same region OF country, act
ing under nearly the same circumstances,
and see how the result would stand; for
instance, we will put DR.. ID. Sperry, Of
Hartford, Conn, (who was not reckoned
in the estimate, as his article was not
published until some months after )against
DR.. Cotting Of Boston. DR.. Sperry says:
In the month of December, 1860, l
had over fifty cases of diptheria, and
since that time, constantly more or less,
and l have yet to lose my first case"
DR.. Getting lost one in three, or one
third of his patients. Now, supposing
one.third of the Allopathic doctors should
meet with like result in their practice,
out of 24O, 900. they would lose 10000,
while DR.. Sperry would have lost none.
Again, we see what prejudice does T! But,
probably, my Allopathy friends may not
be satisfied yet we will isolate one more
case. DR.. Mcbride, of Berea, and my
sslf--both practitioners 5of Ohio-and
see how the result between our practice
stands. DR.. Mcbride lost one in fifteen
patients, / have lost one 10. 800, and that |
was not properly mine. as two other ply
sicians had been in attendance several
DAYS before was called. Now, at the
above rates. out Of 94o. 900 cases, he
would lose $4,000, while on the other
hand only 800 would dies being saving
Of is. goo precious lives. This, truly,
would save much mourning throughout
our land. ! would not be understood,
that I wish to boast of my skill in treat.

he statistics are as follows

The journal from which this extract
is made says: " While our own statistics
are thus meagre, those Of the AlIopath-
lists are no better. On carefully exam
lining the journals within our reach. we
find no full figures TO go upon. Only
three gentlemen have INDUCED in an at
tempt at figures, and these only in an
approximate manner, as follows:
1.-The chance for favorable recovery
among children is about one in three. -
DR.. Cutting, Boston.
cit is probable that nine out of ten
cases will recover. "-Dr. A. S. Clark,
Y. Y City.
"Of all the cases which l have seen
within the last nine mouths, there have
died about one in fifteen. ."--Dr. Nc
Bride, Ohio.
According to the above estimate, the
six physicians of our school treated 667
cases, and lost but FIVE, or one out OF
1873. II the above three gentlemen Of
the Allopathic pra,tiee should, together,
treat this same number, and lose the per-
centage they have acknowledged, the
table would stand thus:
