Attested cases of Yellow Fever. CASE I. James Miller, a lad about 12 years of age, was attacked with the Yellow Fever in September last, the parents endeavored to throw off the disease by purgative oils, injedtions, Jalep, &c. but could get noth ing through him. The third day I was called I found him in the second stage of fever, with the black vomit and red pete chial spots on his skin, he had no evacua tion from his bowels, but ejected every thing which he took—l administered two of the pills, and he kept them down ; the 3d was given 2 hours after—and within 6 hours regular paftages was produced, at which time the black vomit began to a bate, and with the use of aqua calcis and his ordinary medicines he recovered, be yond the expedtation vs any of the family.

I was attacked myfelf with the fever the last of September, from imprudently going into an infedted room with four sick per sons in it early in the morning upon an empty stomach. I was bled, and kept my stomach and bowels constantly affedted by the pills, and recovered without the use of any other remedies except calomel in al terative doses. I felt an immediate sen sation of ease and relief from every dose I took, and always felt myfelf secure from that alarming fymDtom the black vomit whenever they parted through the stomach. I and I ever found this the case with all my patients \\ my wife and two servants in my family were ill of the fever, but happily recovered upon a free use of the pills. These pills were the only medicines I used for the purpose of cleansing the firft paftages, and for preventing the black vo mit, whenever they were given and pro duced liberal evacuation, they never failed to answer this purpose in all cases, even pregnant women could take them with the happiest effedts.
