Heart Disease.

When an Individual is reported to
have died of disease of the heart, we
are in the habit of regarding it rs an
inevitable event, as something which
could not have been foreseen or pre-
vented, and IL is too much the habit,
when persons suddenly fall down dead,
to report the heart as the cause; this
silences all inquiry and investigation,
and saves the trouble and inconven-
fence of post raorten. A truer report
would have a tendency to save many
lives. 1t is through report of disease
of the heart that many an opium eater
is let off into the grave, which covers
at once his folly and his crime: the
brandy drinker, too, quietly slides
around the corner thus, and is heard of
no more; in short, this report OF dis
ease of the heart is the mantle of char
ity which the polite coroner and sympa-
.thetic physician throw around the
graves of generous people.
AT q scientific congress at Strasburp
it was reported that Of sixty-six per-
sons who had suddenly died, an imme-
date and faithful post ,norteDl showed
that only two persons had any heart af-
fectation whatever-cne sudden death
only in thirty-three, from diseases of
the heart. Nine out of sixty die of ap-
opiexy-one ont of every seven; while
