Ily the term “fevers,” I comprehend all febrile affections to which the human frame is subject, including small pox and other eruptive levers; Imt as they arise by a great variety of aliases, and in quite dissimilar eonstiUdious and habits, they of course differ considerably in their development and exhibit a variety of forms or types: yet all are distinguished by tile same general character istic*—that ot undue excitement in the ein ulatory and nervous systems—lnducing more or less unnatural fre quency In the pulse, sense of heat., dryness of (lie skin, debility, Ac. To show that I am not wholly alone in tlie opinion I advance. I quote from the celebrated Prof. T. Watson, of King's (foliage, isuidoli, whose work on the •• Priin i pies and Practice of Physic” Is a textbook in many of otir medical colleges, and consequently sUnub'yd niitlnnil y. On page 834, he says:—“Wo hear eoutinually. laith in and out of the profession, different species of fever .spo ken of. liy the public, Typhus Fever. Itraiu Fever, bilious Fever, Putrid Fever, Lmv Fever, .Nervous Fever, Air. And systematic writers are to the lull as particular: Mucous Fever. APixie, Adynamic, (lastrielhiterjc, and so forth. Now. admitting (but fever shows itself under various forms, I am persuaded that the effect upon (lie mind nf all this sub-division, is bad and hurtful.

They run insensibly Into until ol her, even the m ist dissimilar of them, and are often traceable to the same cause.” Tim above is a great fact, one w orthy of remembrance mid I w ould impress on your minds the lolly of hunting up or troubling yoOrself about a “ name;” If you have lever, treat it at once as hereafter directed,’ mid you will lif well instead of any distinctrhui'acter lining devi l oped, an as to lie properly named by tlie most scientific.

When tlie fever begins to subside,patients must lie left perfectly quiet; free from nil excitement; should not lie questioned us to their wants or feelings, nor attempt to converse, road or take any exercise whatever, till their own natural feeling*, independent of all extra neous influences, iiulucr them to rise or speak; nor should any conversation bo allowed in their hearing, in which they may feel mure or less interested, hut lie left quiet to all intents and purposes. fitli.

Should patients experience any oppression or fuintlioH* while in the lying posture, so us to occasion a restlessness after tile fever has passed off', or enough to occasion them to speak of it, they should have u little wine, toddy, camphor, hartshorn, lemonade with a little *pim, ginger, or some other stimulant : or tlie face and breast may lie bathed in cold wnler: either of which will give immediate relief.
