// r i*/ A r .
Sunc at Coi cetuot, March 4.
COl) ot all agi's and all cfimet!
To thee our foag* (hall ante ;
For hid from men cl ancient ti nt*
Were all thy gifts we prize.
1 Twas thou, whose arm all nations own,
Whole love to nun they fi.c~—
i vva- thon who plann'd hi* good
And form’d him to be t a* i.
Taught by thy equal laws difplay’d
O ! be our hearts inclin’d
To love the creatures thou 1 al math,
And feel for all man kino.
Pin’d in a land of full delight,
Where every comfort down,
F--W wants, few wots our tears excite,
Or break our blvft repose.
While Eallern climes are bath’d in blood,
Or pining in defpuir—
I.ong lias our favor and nation stood,
Supported thy care.
Here, f.tfe and sure, thy Church shall stand,
liy thy own arm fuftain’d ;
Nor need the fyltems men have plann’d,
Nor La** their ptide ordain’d.
1.0 ! thron’d in l ; ght, her last abode,
Fair Fki.koom here ha* iound,
U mierc’d with groans, unlbain’d with blood,
With every blelß.ig crown’d.
Here man tint fyftcm fees prevail
Which truth did firll devise,
And, on anew and nobler Icale,
BehoWs his being rife.
Ti* Clod our facrcd rights decrees ;
T.e great Creator views,
And while onr wants again be fees,
Our Cliartci * lie tenews.
0 1 let our thanki to thee afceiid,
Father of ail mankind !
Ami may thy goodntl wide extend,
Till a i l oui bleltngs find.

MEDICAL.
[/'Vow Dr A. Fethcrgill's ejfay on
the Hydrophobia.]
* The contagious bite of a
rabid animal may be considered
under three diltindt periods.—
The fill! from the time of the
accident to the moment the poi~
lon becomes aclive in the
wound. The second, from tha
period till the dread of water ap
pears’ The third from the ti, “
appearance of ihat fymtom to the
clofc ot the dd’etfe.
The treatment of the firft and
fecon i consists of the various
means of j evcr.tion. That of
the third, the method of c ire af
ter the difealc has a&ually made
its appearance.
“ l hough no certain cure o!
the Hydrophobia has yet been
tlifc ivered, yet, if by ti rely pre
caution that dreadful n alady
can be prevented, as in general
1 think u undoubtedly may,
prevention in the firit inll.incc
will be acknowledged to be bet
ter, though lels brilliant than
cure.
“ Among the various modes
of prevention hitherto employed,
the gr..nd error, I am convinced,
has been in treating a local af
fection as a general ddealer and
in - u.hng the cure ro certain
internal remedies confi iered as
antidotes ; while the poison has
been luffercd to lie dormant in
the wound, and consequently far
br\ond their reach.
44 May not this be the princi
pal teuton, why the dill-ale has
during these a,500 years pall,
uniformly triumphed over all
the boated remedies t!ia have
b - en invented? Such as Sc* ba
thing, Pahmriul's pow.ler, the
Li; -!h n’ and the Ormlkirk re
nr dies, Dr. Mead’s remedy, the
Tonquin remedy, Default's and
Dr. J imes’s mercurial remedies,
the fanjorea lenical remaedy,nd
other infallible antidotes lo call
ed ?
“ The Belladona, fohighly ex
tolled in Germany; has 101 l its
reputation in France. Being ad
mi tillered in doles of fifteen and
even twenty grains a fortnight
before the commencement of the
difealc, cauiird extreme drynels of
of the throat, and many formi
dable fymptotns, but did not
pit-vent the tul .. Ju wi cr.
Braciitionerrc who ti.uh attempt
to drive out one poi’en by dint u!
another, out :o rtfteCt 11at an o
verd >fe of the remedy mav
i ;Ove as deftru&ive as tne dileaic
and that the latent enemy is not
to be driven out, inet artnis, by
internal remedies, however po
tent. The whole class of bead
ed antidote.', have had their day ;
Many have already funk into
oblivion, and the rest seem “has
tening faft to the tomb of all the
Capulets 1” The unmerited re
pute which they have obtained
admits of a ready solution, as it is
much caller to propagate a hun
dred erroib than to demonflrate
a single truth.
“ The late Mr. John Hunter
r e!at(s a remarkable circum
llarjce of twenty-one perfor.s be
• tig bitten by a dog that proved
to be mad : nothing was done
•or any of rhein, and only cine
was taken ill or the disease. Had
they all taken fome noted anti
dote, ns fame would have been
ipread abroad of having co n
pictilv cured twenty ouc of
twenty one.
4 * How often does it happen
that people are bitten by clog
ill of other diseases, not the leaf!
tending to madnelk ? The ani
nid's are killed on a groundless
lulpicF n, the parties poll aw y
to ti.e sea, or have recoutfe to
lome pretended fpecific, equally
li.e.ncaCiOus, they remain well,
and the remedy acquires tlie cre
dit of having cured a diltemper
that never cxilled, or of prevent
ng one that could never have
occurred from that caule. How
eufiiy are the generality of man
kind Educed into a belief of
what they vvilh to be true ?
“ Thus, by implicit faith in
pretended fpecitics, and boasted
cuies that never extlled, is mod
ern quackery lupportcd in lux
ury, at the expence of popular
credulity j while fortune, healtn,
and life are daily iacr.fieed at the
•Ihrine of delulion !”
