On the nature, causes, prevention mul cure
of Fever; more expressly in relation to
the Endemic Fevers of summer and
autumn in the southern states To
gether with accounts of the Bil
lious Remitting: Fever of Ala
bama, as it appeared in the
summers and autumns of
1821 and 1822.
By JABF.Z W. HEUSTIS, M. D.
Author of Physical Observations and Medical
tracts and Researches on the Topography
and Diseases of Louisiana.
rri HR Author of the work abovemen
i tioned considers that little need
he said in order to set forth its interest
and utility to the community at large.
It is a subject it; which all are inte*
rested, as well the planter as the phy
sician. Fever is the principal source
of mortality in the Southern States,
and the annual visitor of our towns,
settlements and sea-ports;ah acquain
tance, therefore with its causes, its na
me, prevention and cure, is among
the first lessons of self-preservation.
A residence of several years in the
southern states, together with conside
rable experience in the diseases of the
climate, and the aid of study and re
flection have, the writer trusts, ena
bled him to treat the subject in such a
manner as to be both useful and inte
resting. It is nearly ten years since
he turned his attention to the labor and
execution of the present work; during
which time, the tacts and observations
that have fallen within his reach,have
been carefully unproved. I'he result
he is now about to give to the public.
His aim has been to render the work
of essential practical utility, and he
has therefore avoided much of the tech
nicality ot medical language, in order
to adapt it to the understanding of all.
To those who live at a distance from
a physician, and even to others a work
of this natre caanot fail to be ot im
portance.
Fiie work will comprise as many as
250 pg es octavo. Provided a suffi
cient number ot subscribers are obtain
ed, it will be offered to them at fwx>
dollars, payable on delivery, ad to
non-subscribers at the rate of one cent
per page.
Persons who may take an interest
in the above named wodt, for every six
subscribers obtained, will be entitled
