THE CURE OE INEBRIATES,

Dr. Albert Day, superintendent OF the New
York State Inebriate Asylum, at Binghamton,
publishes letter in relation to the cure Of ioe-
briaes, from which we gather the following
interesting facts:
During the last ten years [ have had under
my care over twenty five hundred cases OF in
ehriety, in all its various forms and conditions.
More than four hundred OF these had dellr-
ium in its various stages.
In the first years OF my connection with the
asylum for the treatment of their cases, EN-.
braccd the common error, that liquor could not
with safety be entirely withdrawn from the ha-
bual drinker. After two or three years Of OBJ
servation [ found this was an error, and that
the pathology Of drunkenness was not well IN
derstood by medical men generally, particular
ly those who had ventured to write books on
the subject 1 found on trial that my patients
did much better by Withdrawing alchohol alto
gether, never allowing even alchohollc tincturcs
of any kind to be given. A man may
habitually drink his quart or more OF liquor
per day, as most habitual drinkers do Con-
fine such man in some place and put him
upon an allowance of one-haf his usual guam
tity, and he will suffer more than he will to cut
him off entirely = Absolute abstl.
nence will cure the incbriate nothing short Of
it will keep him cured after he is raised up
from life of inebriety and degradation.
