Thrs little work is a valuable addition to the English por tion of the Homoeopathic Literature. By means of the indi cations furnished in the subsequent pages, the treatment and cure of Intermittent Fevers have almost been reduced to a mathematical rule. Hahnemann refers to this little volume in his work on Chronic Diseases. To the remedies contained in this pamphlet, I have added the following: Muriate of Ammo nia, Menyanthes, Lachesis, Aranea and Taraxacum; all of these remedies have been successfully employed against Inter mittent Fevers. I have also introduced a new arrangement in the second part of the work, by means of which the periods of the day, when the exhibition of the drug is most convenient as regards time, can be ascertained at a glance. Believing that this little volume may be used to great advantage, I take the liberty of recommending it to the kind notice of the public. The author, in his preface, explains how this pamphlet is to be used. It may be proper to illustrate his remarks by a case. I shall take the last which occurred in my own practice. The patient was a lady of thirty years. She had been laid up with bilious intermittent fever for about four months, including several relapses, having swallowed quantities of Calomel and Quinine. The type of the fever had been suppressed, but she felt an aching and drawing in her bones, great internal heat, had a good deal of thirst, felt weary, giddy, weak; was unable to do any thing had no good night's rest, no appetite, etc. On an afternoon she was suddenly attacked with vertigo and chills, and had to go to bed. The fever broke out again in all its fury. Vomiting came on. The rending and drawing in the bones was horrid. The patient stated that she had fire in her head and veins. Great oppression of the chest; anguish. Eyes burning and blood-shot. Constant vomiting, excessive thirst. A cold, exhausting, viscid sweat came on in two or three hours. The rending in the bones being so intolerable, I gave her lachesis during the paroxysm this relieved the pain at once. Shortly after the attack I gave her arsenic.
