Mr.. Preston F. Patton, a large farmer
in this county, informs me OF other re
markable cures. In the spring OF the
year many of his cows died from som
poisonous plant which came up on NJ;
plantation. He says that during last Ma,
at least twenty-five of them fell down anC
would have died, but that he drenchec
them with about a pint of tobacco juice
and in less than half an hour every on
OF them arose and recovered.
All such facts as these Strengthen tn
probability that tobacco will cure Aslati
cholera. You have published a state
ment that one case was cured by the ap
plication of tobacco to the stomach. Ina
may do when the attack begins, but late
stages the juice should probably be swal
