A Doctor on 0uinine and Ia Grippe.
RICHMOND, January Is, 1890.
To 0e Editor of The Dispatch.


To Re Editor of the Dispatch.
/ am glad 10 see q correspondent calls
attention in your issue of to-day to the i'm
propriety of school-teacher advising
scholars to take quinine for la grippe. |
have for some time been intending TO call
attention TO the growing habit of every
body taking quinine for everything.
Some years ago a doctor III this city said
in the Medical AcadeIsy that the great
value of quinine was the fact that 1t never
did any harm" The late DR.. Joynes per
haps the best medical authority at the time
In the city, and myself took this doctor TO
task for the statement. Upon general
principles thing that is potent for good
in some suitable cases is or must be potent
for evil in other cases.
The effect of quinine upon the brain is
very manifest, and is not well understood
by the profession, but that IL does make a
most profound impression upon the whole
nervous system is very manifest. The 1t
Is often in the line Of health in ceI n
diseases has been well established, but
this has been the result of long expert
enee and is thus justified. but TO be gwen
for everything by those who know nothing
about medicine or disease is quite a diff
ferent thing. There is q sort of mania
about malaria even among non-medical
men that seems to be growing. No doctor
has yet found out what malaria is exactly,
and IL is unfortunate that the public gene
rally knows so much about IT.
BY the way la grippe is on the increase.
The cases are rather more typical than
when You called attention 10 the subject in
the Dispatch last Wednesday. saw fourteen
cases in three families a few days ago. In
one case the whole family (seven) had it.
Two OF these families were in the country.
Quinine does no good. Antipyrin is far
more valuable. Il stops the headache,
which lie the most painful symptom.
write this note in great haste. BY the way,
yesterday was the busiest day in my prac-
fice since the cholera visitation years a,o,
and was due to the pressure Of this
epidemic.
! knew one lady made permanently deaf
by the use Of quinine and another made
temporarily insane. MEDIcUs.

William Musco. the condemned muir
derer of Policeman G.. L. Seal, who was re-
Gently granted a new trial by the Supreme
Court. was Yesterday taken to the Lynch
burg Jail for safe-keeping. and to avoid the
expense of military guard here.
The city grand jury brought IN an lndlct-
ment Yesterday against Musco for assault
committed on the person of Lucy Meade, a
married colored woman. This deed was
committed q short time before MuscO MUIR
dered Seal.
The grand jury on yesterday made a
thorough investigation of the rumor that
a party had been organized on Friday
night last to lynch Musco. The jury could
not find evidence enough to warrant an In
dictment.
Musco will be kept in the Lynchburg
iail until the February term of the Corpo-
ration Court of this city. when he VIII be
brought back here for retrial.
The Corporation COurt--Judge Duke pre-
siding-is now in session.
The court was yesterday occupied with
the trial of Dave Openheim for unlawful
shooting. The jury brought in verdict
fixing Openheim's punishment at one year
in the penitentiary. This makes the third
time Openheim has been convicted and
sentenced to the penitentiary.

1t is more on the order of q very bad cold
than anything else, but in some cases its
giip is vGy firm.
Rev. J. Francis Robinson, the colored
Massachusetts, minister who was lately in

(cOlored) church here and who soon alter
