ago use Inc SuIpnlteS In the treatment OF

in the Public Hospital of JamaicaY
In reply to this comprehensive ques-
ton I nave to say-FSrst that the employ
ment of the Sulphurous Acid by DR.. Gay
leard three years ago may or may not be
Practitioner in Jamaica, have any know
ledge of his having used it. Secondly,
that the Suiphltes have been used 10y the
Medical officers at New Castle with
great advantage. Thirdly, that | have no
knowledge of the treatment pursued by
the Surgeons Of Rio Janeiro, in cases OF
Yellow Fever-the only practitioner there,
with whose writings / am acquainted,
being Mr.. Pennel, an able and accom-
plished man who has written o very in
teresling essay or Yellow Fever. | re-
viewed this essay for one of the British
Medical Journals q few years ago, but
although I read it attentively | observed
no remark on the use of Sulphurous Acid.
Fourthly, that the Sulphurous Acid was
never used in any Jamaica Hospital,

notice of the profession and the public a
few months ago. l may observe that the
gentlemen who foisted Measurements on
the Editor of The Lancet are very culpa-
BILE. Their w conscience should tell
them, that by writing deliberate untruths,
they poison the stream of kno wledge at
its fountain head, and lower the charac-
ter of the Medical Profession. Having
thus disposed Of the is,statements and
untruths transmitted from Kingston 10
The Lancet Office, I may be permitted to
express my disapprobation at-the shabby
and dishonourable manner in which my
expositions of the nature and appropriate
treatment of Yellow Fever have been re-
ceived by two or three Medical Practi-
TONERS of this city.
Instead of cooperating with me to mi
'tigate the severity of a disease in which
death has generally been the rule, ecov
.ery the exception, these individuals have
used every effort to oppose me.
| will take care to enlighten the con-
.ductor of The Lancet, and my profession
al friends in England, on this curious
episode of the medical history of this'Co-
lony. There was a time, within my w
recollection, when Bancroft, McGlashan,
McFayden, Ferguson, McGrath, and
others, adorned the Medical profession
of Kingston. These men have paid the
debt of nature and have passed away, but
their memory is enshrined in the hearts
o fevery medical man in the Colony. who
had been q witness of their honorable
career. Not one of these men would
have committed a mean or dishonorable
act, even if his life had depended upon it.
Suffice it to say that the recent transmits
sion from Kingston to TIE Lancet Office,
is a dirty and dishonorable act; the COM
munication is utterly untruthful and those
who made it known right well that it was
false. Instances Of this kind show the
miserable degradation into which the
Medical Profession of the country has
fallen.

Exciting Scene i'm a New York Court.

While the examination of Dan Noble,
the prisoner in the Royal Insurance bond
robbery case, was proceeding at the tombs
on Monday before Judge Hogan, q scene
occurred which for several minutes created
the greatest sensation. A Mrs. Gilchrist
was on the witness stand, and was under
going cross examination with regard to
her former husband, John Keene, who the
witness testified was dead. She said he was
her second husband, and had just finished
relating the circumstances of their mar
riage, and the subsequent death of her hus-
band, when the counsel, glancing towards
the door of an ante-room, called "John
Keene p and the man Tor the ghost if the
witness told the truth walked forth. The
episode caused the witness to shrink back
and almost faint. AS soon as the excite
ment was over the examination went on,
the witness testifying she had not seen her
husband for twelve years, and supposed
him to be dead New York Wo1ld

GEN. SICKLEs AND MARSHAL GooDLoE.

NAOSDLOI1.
Some of the letters which passed between
these officials, pending the recent conflict
between the civil and military authorities,
have been published. On the first inter
ference of the military, the Marshal wrote
to Gen. Sickles, assuming that Col. Frank
had acted without authority. as he could
not suppose that he (Gen. S. would un-
dertaie to set aside any law of the Govern
ment to which he owed allegiance" Gen.
S., in reply, called for copy of the pro-
cess issued by the Court, which the Mar
shal declined to give. on the ground that,
as he could not recognize the right of
the military authorities to obstruct or in
| quire into the nature of the process of
the United States Courts put into his
hands, "he must decline to give the in
formation called for as to where and
when the several causes of action occur
red, whether the actions were for debt or
other causes, where the suits began, where
| Judgment was given, and where the final
process of execution issued.
General Sickles finally obtained the re-
cords of the Court and laid the matter
before his Judge Advocate, who summed
up the following illegal points,, on which
Sickles based his report, just published
First That revocation of order No. 10
would be gl1eVously preJudlclal to the
interest of the people of the Carolinas.
Second That it does not appear that
any conflict exists between the United
States Court and the military commander
of the Second District, but merely a col
lisiOn with the Marshal.
Third. That it is reasonable to believe
that Mr.. Chief Justice Chase. with the
question before him, will conform pro-
ceedings on final process to the local law
as modified by the Commanding General
F'0m1h. That Congress intended to make
the military i'll these districts paramount
to all other departments of the Govern
ment
FIf1h. That to concedc to the Uni
ted States Courts authority to overrule
the military commander, will be apt to lead
to substantial nullifcation of the Recon-
struction laws--Taleigh Sentinel
