Litchfield enquirer., 1867-10-24

It appears that in the eastern counties o
 England, opium eating is spreading to an alarming extent In the town of Lynn. { single chemist sells two hundred pounds o1 solid opium annually; another sells over half that amount, besides disposing every week of five or six gallons of laudanum, and as much of "Godfrey's Elixir" com. position consisting of one third opium. In other places the statistics of the trade are equally startling. Visitors to that quarter of England easily discern the effects of this pernicious habit in the miserable, feeble, brownish-yellow countenances so striking among many of the inhabitants. 9 The infant mortality of the district is ex- cessive, the opium diseased bodies of hun
 dreds of the aboring classes precluding the possibility of healthy or long-lived offspring. It is estimated that one half the opium imported into England, is con- sumed in the center of Lincoln and Nor folk The English press is now busily en- gagged in inveighing against the deadly practice, and are calling for the adoption of measures to prevent its further growth. It would be singular if England, who once went to war for the privilege of .poisoning the Chinese with this drug, should be forced to see the passion for it become a national one among her own children.
