have been committed, both before and
since the cholera. George Brown, color

having waved an examination was COM
mitted to jail to await the action of the

*Wo understand hat since this pre-
scription was first employed it has been
ascertained that from 10 to II drops will
in most cases prove a sufficient dose.
Again after testing the remedy in mum,
Der Of cases he writes, dated August u,
1879:
MEsjRs. EDIToRs: In a brief ar
ticle, published in your paper a few days
since, | advanced the opinion that the
cholera, now prevailing in this and other
sections of our country, is toricemio or
blood poisoning; and that chlorine, in
some one of its multitudiaous combina>
tions, furnishes the proper antidote Or
remedy an opinion which, | am happy
to state, has. since been fully confirmed
by a rigid test of the remedy in a multi
piled number Of cases of extreme charac,
ter where the formula heretofore given was
the sole remedial means employed,
Without celebrating tediously, | beg
leave to instance the following facts iu
support of the opinion that the prevailing
chOtera, (Which is uuqucs'ionably of the
parest Asiatic type,) is tozicemia or blood
poisoning:
1st. Patients have, in some instances,
when first visited been found pulseless:
others nearly so who on inquiry, We
learned had tut three or four discharges,
and perhaps no Vomiting at all,
I'd. The character aud condition Of the
vital functions have, under such circum.
stances, given evidence of the existence
of the powerful Sedative poison. Where
a pulse still existed, it was found to be
exceedingly small and weak, an extreme
degree OF mental lethargy, physical pros.
%tration, feble respiration and an entire
suppression of the functions of both the
The liver and kidneys.
8. Cases have occurred in which death
ensued, eight or ten hours after all dis
charges had ceased, Notwithstanding all
efforts at stimulation and alimentation
Ghich we're employed to sustain life,
f.. The litmus test applied to the ejec-
tons aub objections of lady, two hours
after the attack revealed the fact that
both were highly alkaline-a condition Of
things altogether abnormal, aud coupled
with the rigid cramping of the voluntary
muscles gave evidence of the influence of
a violent poison operating IN the vascular
and nervous systems.
8. The uniform effect of remedie, of
acknowledged depurative and dislnfectant
virtues has been the prompt relief, in
nearly all instances of the vital organs.
and the restoration of the sccretlons and
excretions to their natural condition and
appearance.
1t is not assumed that any one of the
symptoms enumerated or facts stated in
the foregoing, would alone constitute
groud for such a theory but aggregated
and combined they furnished, | conceive,
irresistible evidence of the correctness of
tho diagnosis; ToGicemla, OR blood pois-
oning.
That | may not become tedious | pros
pose to stop at this point and to resume
again in your next issue. | Shall offer, |
trust, some reflections and some facts not
uninteresting to the general as well as to
the professional readsr-pefhaps by no
means unproGtable-such is my hope at
least. Such my conviction.

Booths Chances.

The Sacramento Union makes a very
favorable showing for the Governor
for United States Senator. That jour-
nal SAYS: I'VE count with much GER
tainty upon these votes of Senators,

/; San Francisco, l; Santa Barbara

There are other districts to hear from,
which may increase the figures. We
count upon Booth Assemblymeu as
follows: Sacramento, ): San Francis

The California Legislature.

Enough is now known to determine
pretty accurately the complexion of
the mex Legislature Of California.
The official returns are not all in, yet
the following estimate may be relied
upon as very nearly correct
Senate - Republicans, 10 ; Demo-
Gratis, II Independents, Z.
Neutrality-suspicious., % i; Dem
Gratis, 90 Independents, %.
Of the seven independent Senators,
four are Democrats, three Republic
cans.
OF the twenty-nine Independent
Assemblymen, fifteen are Republic
cans, fourteen Democrats.
The relative strength of the several
parties in both branches of the Legs
lature is as follows: Republicans A;
Democrats 40: Independents Sc. AS
Stunning that the - Democrats elected
on the independent ticket act with
the 40 Democrats elected on the regu-
lar Democratic ticket will give the
Democracy a total of 80 members
only two short Of a majority over
both the other factions. The official
returns nay make some slight altera-
tons in the above estimate, though it
is not probable that there will be
any material change.
