A certain cure for the Dyfntery in
the wdrjl fuges cf the difsafe.
This remedy is very simple;
and it communicated by one who
has experienced its good effects,
and known it pradlilcd on many
others with like success, when
given over, by Ikilful phyiiciam ;
rnd as this is the season of the
year when its prevalency is grea
ter than at any other, it is hoped
that printers of news-papers will
give it publicity. The receipt is <
—one gill of ftveet oil, one gill |
of W. I. Rum, and one gill of
W. I. Molalfcs. Simmer these
together, and flir them till well
mixed. The quantity to be taken
is, for a grown person one table
fpponful every hour, and children
a cue preportion till relieved.

COVFUtSfONS,
In the last number of that valuable woik,
the Medical Repository, wc find an account
of two cases of cnnvulfions relieved by vio
lent prt flute om the flomach.
Dodlor- -,rif — ~was called to two
patients in convulsions. To the. lb ft he gave
the usual remedies without rfFeft, hm recol
leffjiig that hyflerb ks had been relieved by 1
a bandage tied tightly round the body, he
proceeded to apply it, and while attempt,
ing to tighten it, his hand wairprefied with
foa.e force into the pit of the the flcraach.
A change in the countenance of the patient
was immediately perceived, and on the
augmentation of the prefiure his countenance
brightened-into cheerfulness. He frrilrd &
bcggtd the pn fibre to be increaffd. When
the preflurc was removed the ccnvulfions re
turned. This experiment was repeated
feverai times to establish the rertaint)’ of
the relief afforded by the prefiure. The pa
tient ultimately went to sleep wbh .’he whole
weight of the doftor’s body resting on his
knee, in the pit of the patient's fiornach.
The pressure was withdrawn and the patient
continued free from fpsfm.
The feccnd case was relieved in the fame
way, but the preflurc made by the knuckles
in the pit of the was found fufficient.
Mie had been in convulsions for an hot-.'-, and
in live minutes was relieved hv the pief
lurc.
