Treatment of Diphther ia.

For the benefit of our readers, and ow
ing to the prevalence of dlphtheria we
ale requested to publish the following
treatment for such diseases, which was
SO successfully practised by the late DIS
tinguished DR.. J, Williams, of Memphis.
If the bowels are constipated, as is
sometimes the case, begin the treatment
by unloading with one enc ma, OF if there
is any special bilious arrangement
81 ness of stomach, move with gentI
mercurial purge. In few hours after
the mercury is taken, say four CT six
hours, begin with the following recipe
Chloratc of potassa, 100 grains,
HyGrochloric acid, fluid, 2 :drachme.
Water, 8 ounces.
Pulyeriza the salt, pour on the acid,
and while in efervescence etir in the
water-keep wrapped we'll, or in dark
place. Of this take a teaspoonful every
four hours in sweetened water, and the
alternate four hours take tablespoonful
of G saturated solution of the chlorate of
potassa; or, if the case is very urgent.
this may be given mixed with the acid
and the alternate four hours too. For
the local affection a gargle of strong pep
per tea salt and vinegar should be used
frenquently, and once or twice day or
oftener if the case it very urgeut, the
tOnsils and fauces should be sponged
well with the foregoing acid solution
with the addition of thirty drops of mu-
riatic acid to the ounce This should be
applied moro or less often to the afflicted
parts as long as any of the white spots
or membranous exudations continue.
And, inasmuch as this disease is very
rapidly exhausting, and the fever is one
of purely irritative chara cter, the result
of the profound poisoning of the blood
it is indispensable that the strength o
the patient should be husbanded aud pro-
NOTED as much as possible by stimulantc
and generous diet, and in order to secure
this end with absolute certainty 1 give
after each dose of medicine very free
draughts Of spirits, and generally in the
/
shape of milk or egg dram. If the
milk or egg be objected to give the spirit,
alone, and as often as three OF four hours
given freely of beef or chicken soup, oys
ters, soft boiled egg, mutton, etc.
All this powerful stimulant course
should be adopted and persevered in, re-
CARELESS of the most intense fever
Headache is no contra Indication to theil
use, bnt this, with all the phenomena o
the fever, will be speedily allayed there
by. With this conservative course II
view, it will be readily inferred that Bills
ters, excessive spurging or any drain
whatever from the system should be void
ed. Indeed, to avoid blistering is Wit
The alternative course should be pr G
severed in for several days after all DIS
appearance of the disease, as it is very
liable to redevelope itself if the remedies
are left off itOO soon.
