JESPEB HARDING, PRINTER. PREFACE TO THE AMERICAN EDITION. With the design of inculcating the truth, and of diffusing the important benefits of Homoeopathy, the present volume has been translated from the German, and published with additions in the English language. Its aim is to concentrate the practical results of Homoeopathic medicine, in a manner so plain and precise, that every intelligent observer of morbid phenomena, whether within the pale of the medical profession or out of it, may readily avail himself of the experience of the most distinguished practitioners of this system. As a book of reference for the practitioner, it far excels every other work, presenting him at a single glance what he might otherwise seek for amidst a confused mass of records, and never find. The in- defatigable author has drawn his matter from the infallible results of experience; all guess work and hypothesis, which have so long occupied the place of rational induction in the practice of medicine, find no support here. It is time that mere authority in medicine, or the ipse dixit of a public teacher of the healing art, uttered with true professional dignity, but unsup- ported by facts, should be discarded; that the mys- IV PREFACE- teries of the medical profession should be unveiled; that its professors should no longer seek to conceal themselves behind the shield of a false philosophy, while at the same time, they make an indiscrimi- nate attack, without examination, upon every sys- tem, which differs from their own. However nu- merous may be the occasions, which compels them to acknowledge the imperfection and lamentable deficiency of their art; yet they have ever manifest- ed a hostile bearing towards every one, who has proposed an innovation, or attempted a reformation in medicine; system has been piled upon system, and hypothesis upon hypothesis, until the accumu- lated mass, no longer capable of sustaining itself, has fallen to the ground, to become the uncertain foundation of other systems and more hypotheses. This has been the history of past medicine, and will be of that which is to come, unless facts, in- stead of conjectures, form the ground work of the system; and a rigid induction, instead of vague hy- pothesis completes the superstructure. The illustrious Harvey was traduced and perse- cuted by his contemporaries, and the benevolent Jenner shared the same fate, yet their discoveries have survived the malevolence of their persecutors, because they were facts. Governed by such un- generous feelings towards the votary of science and the philanthropist, it will scarcely excite our surprise, though it must arouse our indignation, to be informed, that the members of a liberal profes- sion had raised the hanner of persecution against PREFACE. V one of their brethren, however exalted may have been his motives, who proposes no less than a radi- cal, though beneficial reform in the practice of medi- cine. Such however has been and still is the dis- tinguished privilege of the illustrious Hahnemann, the founder of Homoeopathy. This system has attracted the especial and al- most universal hostility of the medical profession, because it has dared to call in question the ortho- doxy of the prevailing practice. To do this,assured- ly required no small degree of moral courage on the part of Hahnemann. During the whole of his ca- reer, he met with nothing but discouragement from the established sect of medical science. The schools have for forty years not only refused to examine the claims of this system, but they still affect to treat it with silent contempt; or if they condescend to speak of it, it is only to assign it a place among the reveries of a distempered imagination. But although learned universities, medical col- leges and societies have thrown the whole weight of their influence into the opposite scale, his doctrine has gained a name, which will endure as long as truth continues to be regarded, or as health is pre- ferred to disease. This beautiful science having thus passed through many and severe ordeals, still stands erect, and advances forward in despite of every opposition, simply because it is founded on the Rock of Truth. It has already enlisted under its banner a numerous train of physicians, possessed of a high order of intellectual excellence, and ca- a2 VI PREFACE. pable of exerting an incalculable amount of influence to maintain and diffuse the principles of their fa- vourite science. It has secured to itself the warmest gratitude of countless thousands, who have received that aid from it which no other system could render them. Thus fortified by truth for its basis, and by de- voted adherents for its support, Homoeopathy is not to be regarded as a conjectural art, but is entitled to a place among the certain sciences. The assaults of its enemies will hasten its triumph—and their blows will recoil upon themselves with a tenfold force. Already in Europe the practice of it is encouraged by royal enactments and imperial de- crees, and most of the crowned heads upon the con- tinent have Homosopathists as court physicians. Preliminary to a development of the principle upon which Homoeopathy is founded, and an ex- planation of the mode in which Homoeopathic remedies are believed to act, I shall present the reader with a brief but comprehensive review of medicine, both ancient and modern. A glance at the history of medicine will show that its limited progress has been owing more to the defective method in which it has been studied than to any inherent complexity in the subject it- self. In its origin the practice must necessarily have been in the highest degree empirical. Empiricism therefore, is as old as the world, and will, judging from the past as well as the present, last as long. As the intellect of man became cultivated, he PREFACE. VII indulged in vague speculations concerning the phe- nomena about him, and hence medical philosophers turned their attention to the invention of medical hypotheses, moulded according to the prevailing no- tions of their day. Even Hippocrates himself was not free from the danger of hypothetical specula- tion, and laid the foundation for the grossest system of humoral pathology. Galen, whose medical doc- trines held a despotic sway over the minds of phy- sicians for 1400 years, based his therapeutics upon the purely arbitrary assumption of the ancient phi- losophers, that fire, air, earth and water, constituted the elementary principles of the universe. By means of these the elements of disease wrere expe- rienced; and the curative effects of medicine were to be sought for upon the principle, " contraria contrariis curantur." The cultivation of chemistry occasioned by the researches of the Alchymists, gave a severe shock to the learning- of the schools. About the same time Paracelsus made a vigorous attack upon the Galen- ical dogmas, which tended to dissipate the darkness of fourteen centuries. Though he exposed the er- rors of his predecessors, he had not the talent or good fortune to produce much advancement in practical medicine. At length, however, after the impulse given by the illustrious Bacon to the advancement of the physical sciences, mere speculation was obliged to give way to the more rational researches of the in- ductive philosophy. VIII PREFACE. But it is to Haller that the merit belongs, of hav- ing laid the foundation of the modern school of phi- losophy, both by precept and example. Hence, from our inquiries, it is but too apparent, that practical medicine is still in its infancy, and far behind the other branches of medical know- ledge. A want of accurate knowledge of the phy- siological action of medicines upon the human econo- my, a subject hitherto disregarded in the application of the inductive method to the study of the vital phenomena, may be considered as the principal cause of the little progress which has yet been made in practical medicine. How far Hahnemann and his followers have remedied this radical defect, I will endeavour to show. When in our power to arrive at a knowledge of the occasional causes of disease and to effect their removal, we have a sure basis for medical practice, and that this must ever be the first indication in every rational plan of treatment is equally evident. But such knowledge is seldom within our reach, and the effects produced by exciting causes are the great objects of medical treatment, and must be met by remedies prescribed upon general indications or by certain others, the beneficial effects of which, in certain forms of dis- ease, are fully established, and which have hence been honoured with the name of specifics. Treatment predicated upon general indications, so often fails or proves injurious in the hands of the most skilful, that most physicians regret the want of more specific indications for the choice of reme- PREFACE. IX dies. And those practitioners whose knowledge of the specific effects of individual medicines has been the most extensive, have been the most successful in curing disease. It is probable that every remedy has a specific action upon the human body, and is capable of ex- citing on one or more organs constant and charac- teristic effects, modified by the peculiarities of con- stitution of the individual to whom the remedy is administered. Some, however, are endowed with this action in a much higher degree than others, particularly poisons, which produce in almost every individual a nearly similar train of symptoms. Of this class we have examples in the action of Opium, Belladonna and Stramonium on the brain; of Cu- prum, Argentum, Zinc, Rhus, Toxicodendron, Nux Vomica and Phosphorus on the spinal marrow; of Colchicum, Digitalis and Nitre on the kidneys; and many others which are known to every practition- er, though the precise nature of their specific ac- tion is but little understood. The doctrine of specifics, therefore, is fully es- tablished by an extensive series of facts; but that a more accurate knowledge of them would do much for the advancement of practical medicine, is self- evident; and to inquiring physicians the specific actions of medicines have always been a subject of the greatest interest. The methods, however, that have been pursued to obtain a knowledge of these, as well as the difficulty of the inquiry, have pre- vented all real progress. In no department of x PREFACE. knowledge has this vicious method of procedure been so constantly followed as in the construction of tables of the materia medica. Haller felt and recommended the necessity of a thorough reforma- tion of the doctrine of the materia medica. He saw how imperfect was the means of acquiring any knowledge of the specific powers of medicines mere- ly from their use in disease, and he advised a much more feasible plan, viz: of trying them on the healthy. His recommendation was, strange to say, entire- ly disregarded, and suffered to remain a dead letter till the time of Hahnemann, who was the first to feel the importance of the inquiry. Whether he received the first idea from his illustrious predeces- sor, or not, is of little consequence, since to him be- longs the still greater merit of having first called it into life and reduced it to practice. His first ex- periment was made upon himself, being then in health, with a portion of powered Cinchona, care- fully observing his feelings during the use of the medicine, and accurately writing them down; he was thus enabled to distinguish the difference be- tween pathological and medical symptoms. To his surprise he found the symptoms produced by Cin- chona so similar to those of an intermittent fever produced by Malaria, that all doubt as to the simi- larity between the action of bark and Malaria seemed to be removed. Hahnemann continued to prosecute his inquiries into the pure effects of me- dicinal substances on healthy individuals, selecting PREFACE. XI those whose curative powers had acquired for them' either in ancient or modern times an extended re- putation. The results of his experiments may he arranged under the following heads: 1st. That every medicine has the power, when exhibited in sufficient doses to a healthy individual, of disturbing more or less the functions of the body, and also that the mental faculties are rarely ex- empted from alteration. 2nd. That the action of most substances is cha- racterized by a succession of symptoms, which may be divided into primary and secondary. 3rd. That the direct action of some medicinal substances is again manifested by an alternation of symptoms of a directly opposite character; thus among the primary effects of Nux Vomica, we have constipation and diarrhoea; of Belladonna, contrac- tions and dilatations of the iris. 4th. That some substances produce the strongest symptoms in the morning, others in the evening, others at night. Many of them are influenced also by motion or rest, by cold or heat, by mental emo- tion and intellectual employments. Having in this way ascertained the pathogenetic effects of several of the most important medicines on healthy individuals, and on the other hand, their curative effects in some forms of disease, the ques- tion was reduced to this simple inquiry as to the affinity that the pathogenetic effects of a medicine bear to the pathological condition of the disease, which it is reputed to cure specifically; and whether XII PREFACE. they are similar or dissimilar in their general fea- tures. Hitherto the Galenic principle of contraria con- trariis curantur had been considered the founda- tion of successful practice; but this is altogether untenable, for the simple reason that very few mor- bid phenomena have a direct antithesis, and if there be any that have, we are unable to avail ourselves of it for practical purposes. Fortunately, however, for the advancement of medical science, an accu- rate comparison of the pathogenetic effects of the remedies with the pathological symptoms of the disease they are reputed to cure, displays the great- est similarity between them. For example, the continued use of mercury, besides other symptoms, produces inflammation and ulceration of the throat, so nearly resembling the same symptoms arising from syphilis, that it is difficult to distinguish the one from the other; for syphilis, however, mercury is a well known specific. Rhubarb, in a large dose, produces purging; in a small one it is less efficient in checking some forms of diarrhoea; Opium, which in large doses constipates the bowels, is recom- mended by many excellent practitioners for Ileus and incarcerated Hernia. It possesses an intoxi- cating and stupefying property, yet in the curative state of acute fevers, in small doses, it relieves that symptom like a charm. Similar results could be shown to exist in a large class of important reme- dies, for a knowledge of which the reader is refer- red to the Organon and other Homoeopathic works. PREFACE. XIII Having thus traced the successful treatment of disease to the influence of the Homoeopathic prin- ciple, and confirmed its importance in numerous instances, Hahnemann acquired the fullest convic- tion that the idea which his original trial with bark suggested to him, was the simple expression of the law of specifics, and now no longer hesitated to announce, "that diseases are cured most safely and effectually, by small doses of such medicines, as are capable, in large doses, of exciting, by their direct action on healthy individuals, symptoms of a very similar nature," hence the principle of the Homoe- opathic method is " similia similibus curantur." Thus ushered into public notice, Homoeopathy must stand or fall by its own merits, which can only be ascertained by a careful application of the prin- ciples to the treatment of disease. Hahnemann and all his followers appeal to experiments, and nothing but experiment, in support of the grand therapeuti- cal law expressed in the phrase, " similia similibus curantur." The spirit of the age however, in the pride of its intellect, disdains to examine it by this test; because the explanation of phenomena, apparently so con- trary to received notions, seems to be beyond the reach of our reason. An attempt therefore to show their reasonableness with the general laws of the human system may not be devoid of utility. Should it succeed, it may lead to a rapid development of the method, and should it fail, the facts will remain undisturbed for further and future speculation.— B XIV PREFACE. Different theories have been formed to explain the modus operandi of Homoeopathic remedies. One supposes that in accordance, " Febris febre curan- dum," that the disease in order to be cured, must first be brought to a certain height, called its "acme" or "crisis." Thousands of examples confirm this view. Even Intermittents, where the last paroxysm is general- ly the strongest, resolve themselves most happily and most surely according to this law. In chronic diseases, also, a very perceptible reaction is a pre- lude to convalescence, as though nature were en- deavouring to annihilate the focus of disease. In this way we often see rheumatic pains in the head or extremities, which have long distressed the suf- ferer, disappear altogether after an unusually vio- lent paroxysm ; and when arthritic tumours and lymphatic swellings are pierced with lancinating pains, their resolution may often be predicted. In conformity with these remarkable phenomena, an explanation of the action of Homoeopathic medi- cines has been founded upon the supposition, that a disease once established in the system, cannot at once be cut short, though it may be much hastened in its development toward a crisis by an increased activity of the organic process—hence the various morbid phenomena are but the effects of the vis medicatrix naturae to effect this purpose. If this be true, it necessarily follows that the most rational method of treating diseases must be to imitate na- ture, and at the same time to aid and support the PREFACE. XV vis medicatrix in its curative efforts. For this pur- pose a Homoeopathic remedy must be sought, which will act directly on the diseased organ, and corres- pond in its pathogenetic properties to the altered functions of the part or parts affected. There is undoubtedly much plausibility in this theory, and it satisfactorily accounts for the mi- nute doses of medicines required to produce a slight Homoeopathic aggravation of the disease which will soon subside and be followed by a restoration of healthy action. Hahnemann however, offers a different explana- tion of the Homoeopathic process, he sets at nought the vis medicatrix, and proceeds upon the undeniable fact, that two diseases meeting together in any in- dividual, the more readily give way to each other as they are the more similar to each other in their nature, the weaker giving way to the stronger. Hence he maintains that in the treatment of dis- ease, we have only to imitate the proceedings of nature, and substitute a stronger medicinal disease for that which has arisen from common causes, and this end is to be effected by the Homoeopathic reme- dy. The discovery and application of the law of "simi- lia similibus curantur" to the treatment of diseases would necessarily lead to new views relative to their nature and causes. The remote cause, which in ordinary medicine is almost totally neglected, is eagerly sought after by the Homoeopathist,as he considers it a morbid state, deserving the whole attention of the physician. The XVI PREFACE. remote causes determine the development of the disease, and consequently require to be strictly in- quired into, because experience has taught the practitioner of the new school, that symptoms ap- parently similar, produced by different causes, de- mand peculiar treatment; for instance, a diarrhoea arising from cold ought not to be treated in the same manner as that produced by a fit of colic or by eat- ing unwholesome food. An inflammation of the brain resulting from a repelled erysipelas, would require a different remedy from the disease produced by a blow or a stroke of the sun, &c. The enlightened Homoeopathist will be governed in the selection of his remedy by all these circumstances, preferring that one which corresponds to all the existing symp- toms as well as the remote cause; whilst the old school would see only a diarrhoea, an encephalitis, and be governed in its treatment merely by these names; and instead of blindly theorizing concerning the nature of the proximate cause, and guessing at the requisite treatment, as it is too often the case with the routinist of the old school, Homoeopathy convinced of the impenetrability of the secrets of nature, contents itself with taking into account, all the antecedent circumstances in reference to the patient, the cause producing the disease, the condi- tion of the moral and physical functions of the in- dividual, the external changes which are percepti- ble, the sufferings and sensations felt by the patient. Thus it is easy to see which method is most like- ly to acquire the greatest amount of positive know- ledge in relation to the patient's disease, and con- PREFACE. XVII sequently by which method a cure is most likely to be effected. The diagnosis of disease by such minute investigations must also be very much fa- cilitated, and the Homoeopathic physician, by his anatomical and pathological knowledge, ought to be able to designate the suffering organ or organs, the nature of the change produced by the disease in them, as well as the changes that have taken place in the organism generally, and in all the func- tions particularly. It is only after all these inves- tigations have been made as accurately as possible, that the physician can acquire a just idea of the disease in a homoeopathic point of view. This close attention to all the phenomena of disease must give to the Homoeopathist a vast superiority over the practitioner of the old school, who generalizes his cases, and sees no characteristic difference in those diseases classed by him under the same name. From what has already been said, Homoeopathy possesses vastly superior means over the old system of rendering a correct prognosis of disease; since this is founded on the knowledge of the disease, and the means which science offers to overcome it. It becomes even the Homoeopathist, however, to be circumspect in predicting the course or termination of a disease; as the human body is a vastly compli- cated machine, our means of knowing what is going on within are so limited, and so many unforseen circumstances may disturb the action of a medicine or influence the condition of the patient. The cure of disease homceopathically requires b2 XVIII PREFACE. three essential conditions, viz: 1. The employment of a medicine corresponding with the disease. 2. The reaction of nature. 3. That the action of the medicine be not disturbed by any internal or exter- nal causes—and hence the prognosis must be ren- dered according to the more or less complete union of these conditions. Another advantage possessed by Homoeopathy consists in this, that the patient is spared a tedious convalescence in acute diseases, because as he has not been exhausted by blood-letting or evacuant medicines, he passes directly from a state of disease to one of health, to the regular exercise of his func- tions. Medicines, however, cure disease only as they assist nature in her conservative efforts; the physician who administers them according to this principle, is the only true minister of nature, and not he who attempts to thwart her operations. The allopathic physician, by blood-letting, exhausts the powers of nature, he prevents her re-action, and baffles her salutary efforts; he therefore much better merits the title of her tyrant than her minis- ter, and when he endeavours by enormous doses of medicine to produce an action opposed to that of the disease, he becomes her executioner. The im- propriety of such treatment is fully and fearfully at- tested by the frequent Gastralgias, the different or- ganic lesions of the stomach and alimentary canal, of the liver, urinary organs, lungs, and the nervous sys- tem, which remain behind as the results, not as is generally supposed, of the malignancy of the disease, but from the large doses of medicine, or from the debilitating effects of blood-letting. EXTRACT FROM THE AUTHOR'S PREFACE. " I believe no cure of importance has been pub- lished, which I have not inserted in the following work. In one respect this book differs from all others of a similar nature, viz. that the foreign journals have been consulted in its compilation. As it respects completeness, I flatter myself that the present^work surpasses all others of the same kind, now extant. Whether I judge correctly or otherwise, 1 leave to the unbiassed opinion of those competent to determine. With regard to the arrangement of the work, I considered the alphabetical order preferable, on account of the ease with which it may be consulted. Relative to ' cutaneous eruptions,' I have to re- mark, that all chronic eruptions, except Herpes and Scabies, are comprised under the head Impeti- gines, according to Petro Franck, as it was impos- sible to classify them after Willan and Bateman, pleased as I should have been to have done so, ow- ing to the superficial manner in which many of the cases were drawn up. I have introduced under the term < Herpes,' those cases in which the authors themselves had previously used it, even if they did not agree with the modern classification; but in order XX PREFACE. to be consistent, I was obliged to omit this arrange- ment in this class of cases also. To many indivi- duals the old classification will be practically use- ful. The diffuseness for a work of this kind, with which I have treated the subject of intermittent fevers, I trust I shall not be reproached with by those who know the difficulty attendant on the Homoeopathic treatment of this disease. I have carefully compiled all positive cases of cure which have appeared in the various publica- tions as well as journals, so that no published case of cure will have been omitted, where only one remedy had been given with success; on the other hand, I have almost entirely omitted those cases where a number of remedies were administered." REMARKS UPON DIET. The following work having been originally de- signed by its author for the exclusive use of physi- cians, no directions for the regimen of the sick dur- ing Homoeopathic treatment, nor for the adminis- tration of medicines were necessary; and conse- quently they were not given. In the American edition, however, which has been prepared so as to render it available to the intelligent portion of the non-professional part of the community, as well as to all other debutants in Homoeopathy, the editor deems it important to insert the following observa- tions upon these subjects. DIRECTIONS FOR THE REGIMEN OF THE SICK DURING HOMOEOPA- THIC TREATMENT. The needful dietetic observances during Homoe- opathic treatment, are comprehended under the fol- lowing general rule, viz.—The patient should ab- stain from the use of every thing of a medicinal nature, and should partake of light, digestible food to satisfy hunger, and of such drink as nature re- quires to allay thirst. Agreeably to this rule, the aliment may be classified under the following sub- divisions, viz.— I. ALIMENT ALLOWED. I. In acute diseases the appetite is mostly im- paired, and only the lightest and most simple kinds of nutriment are proper; but in these cases nature herself usually dictates the needful abstinence, and the patient is allowed pure water in preference to XXII REMARKS UPON DIET. all other drinks; toast water, or water with the ad- dition of sugar, raspberry or strawberry syrup. Barley-water, rice-water, thin oat meal gruel, pana- da, gum arabic water, whey, milk and water; pre- parations of arrow root, sago and tapioca, without any other seasoning than a little salt and loaf sugar, or one of the syrups mentioned. Most kinds of ripe succulent fruits possessing lit- tle or no acidity, fresh or prepared by cooking, and eaten in moderate quantities at a time ; as grapes, apples, peaches, strawberries, raspberries, and sweet cherries ; but no fruit whatever should be used in cases of colic or diarrhoea. II. After the more violent symptoms of acute dis- ease have subsided, and the appetite calls for more substantial food, or in most chronic diseases, a wider range may be taken in the choice of aliment, and in such cases the following articles in addition to those already enumerated, are allowed, viz. All kinds of light bread and biscuit not contain- ing potash, soda, or other similar ingredients, and not too fresh; cakes composed of meal, eggs, sugar, and a little butter; buckwheat cakes not raised with fermenting powders; light puddings and dump- lings of wheat, Indian meal, rice, oatmeal or bread, without wine, spices, or rich sauces; hominy, In- dian mush, rye mush, groats, pearl barley. Potatoes, turnips, carrots, spinage, green or dried peas or beans, (but these vegetables should not be used in colic or diarrhoea.) Milk not too recent from the cow, boiled milk, cocoa boiled with milk or water, pure plain choco- late, weak black tea. Butter, free from any rancid or unusual taste, cream, mild cheese, curds and other simple prepa- rations of milk, plain custards. REMARKS UPON DIET. XXIII Raw or soft boiled eggs and egg tea, except in diarrhoea. Soups and broths of animal and vegetable sub- stances elsewhere permitted, seasoned with a little salt only; beef tea, chicken water, (the flesh being boiled at least for half an hour.) Chickens, pigeons, turkeys, venison, and other wild game. Beef, mutton, the lean part of ham, neats' tongues. Fresh scale fish, except Salmon. Salt, sugar, ice creams with the syrup of straw- berries and that of other allowed fruits, and not flavoured with aromatics. Note.—Should any of the allowed articles of diet disagree with the patient, on account of some constitutional peculiarity, or the nature of his dis- ease, they should be avoided by him, though per- fectly wholesome for others; nor should they be used if incompatible with the remedy prescribed by the physician, of which he is to he the judge. The patient should not overload his stomach, nor oppress it with various or incongruous dishes. The demands of the appetite for solids are to be satisfied at stated and not too frequent periods, and at no other time. Regularity in the time of eating is of importance. The diet of children at the breast should not be changed during their sickness, but in such cases, that of the mother should be regulated according to the preceding rules. II. ALIMENT FORBIDDEN, Unless allowed by the Physician. Lemonade, buttermilk, drinks prepared from acids, fruits, or syrups, as currant jelly, &c. XXIV REMARKS UPON DIET. Melons, fresh or preserved acid fruits and dried fruits, as figs, raisins, prunes, dried currants, &c. Cabbage, cauliflower, asparagus, parsnips, beets, radishes, mushrooms, tomatos, boiled onions, boiled or roasted unripe Indian corn. Cider vinegar, and salads or cucumbers prepared with it; sauerkraut, pickles. All kinds of pastry, sweet oil. Oysters raw or cooked, hard boiled eggs, omelet. Salted meat and salted fish. Veal, pork, geese, ducks. The liver, heart, lungs, and tripe of animals which are used for food. All kinds of nuts. Coffee and green tea, all kinds of pepper. (The use of tobacco when habitual, may be in- dulged in moderation.) III. ALIMENT STRICTLY FORBIDDEN. Old smoked salted meat, and salted fish. Rancid butter, old strong cheese, lard, fat pork, turtles and terrapins. Fish without scales, as cat-fish and eels, lobsters, crabs, clams, and soups prepared from them. Food prepared from blood, and much animal fat. Veal cutlets, all kinds of sausages, particularly such as are smoked. The flesh of all very young animals. All soups highly seasoned, sauces, drawn butter, pepper-pot. Cakes prepared with much fat or aromatics. All kinds of coloured confectionary, honey. (Co- loured toys, if the colours be not fixed, are on all occasions to be withheld from children.) Artichokes, pickles prepared from spices, or greened with copper; catsups, celery, horse radish, REMARKS UPON DIET. XXV garlic, raw or pickled onions, red or cayenne pep- per, mustard, saffron, nutmeg, ginger, lemon or orange peel, vanilla, laurel leaves, bitter almonds, peach kernels or peach leaves, cloves, cinnamon, allspice, coriander, fennel or anise-seed, marjoram, sage, thyme, spiced chocolate. All kinds of distilled and fermented liquors, unless habit or the nature of the disease renders them in- dispensable, when they may be used under the direction of the physician. All natural and artificial mineral waters. Wine vinegar, beer vinegar, adulterated vinegar, and diluted mineral acids. Note.—The physician should always be consult- ed in relation to articles of diet more or less im- proper, to which the patient is so accustomed that it is difficult for him to abstain from them, and also with respect to other hurtful influences to which he may be unavoidably exposed. With the view of guarding against every extra- neous influence calculated to disturb the due effect of Homoeopathic remedies, every article of diet and every medicine not expressly prescribed by the physician, is strictly forbidden. And this prohi- bition refers not only to all medicines procured at the shops, and all such as are empirical, but to every description of domestic medicines, as all man- ner of herb-teas, syrups, medicated poultices and irritating or medicinal substances applied to the skin. Blood letting by the lancet, or by leeches or cups, and laxative injections, except those of luke-warm water, are likewise forbidden. All perfumery, particularly musk, hartshorn, camphor, Cologne water, eau de Luce, or other c XXVI REMARKS UPON DIET. aromatic waters, flowers used for their odour, cos- metics and tooth-powders must be avoided. The cure is disturbed by hot baths, or baths im- pregnated with herbs, sulphur, and other medica- ments. In all internal diseases the use of stays or corsets hinders the cure and renders it difficult, as does the practice of rocking in rocking-chairs in diseases of the abdominal viscera, particularly in females. Linen, cotton, or leather worn next the skin is preferable to woollens. When the nature of his malady will permit, the patient should use moderate exercise in the open air, for an hour or more every day, and his cham- ber should be subjected to daily ventilation. Besides the foregoing, there are other agents of a moral nature which may retard or prevent a cure. Every strong passion or emotion of the mind, les- sens the susceptibility of the body to medicinal im- pressions, and may itself be the cause of disease. Much reading, particularly works of fiction, visiting theatres, card playing, debasing converse, sensual excitement, and the indulgence in secret sins of thought, tend to undermine the health and impede the cure. The depressing passions, as long con- tinued grief, anxiety, &c. may contribute to the same result. Under such circumstances a cure can scarcely be expected, unless the mental disturbance can justly be considered as the effect, and not the cause of the bodily disease. Other things being equal, a good moral regimen places the patient in the most favourable condition for recovery. Labour which diverts the mind, while it exer- cises the body, should be daily used in chronic dis- eases, as far as the strength will conveniently per- mit. REMARKS UPON DIET. XXVII Note.—Homoeopathic medicines should be taken fasting, and for about half an hour afterwards the patient should abstain from eating or drinking, the use of tobacco, and, if possible, from much mental or bodily exertion. The medicines are to be kept in a clean, dry, and cool place, free from odours. THE SELECTION AND REPETITION OF ME DICINES. One of the most delicate and important points in the practice of Homoeopathic medicine, is the choice of appropriate remedies. Unless the remedy is specifically adapted to the disease to be treated, the adminstration of it may be wholly inefficacious, but no farther injurious to the patient, than the de- lay occasioned by its use. When the remedy has been rightly chosen, the proper time for repeating it, is determined by the greater or less progress of the disease. When the case is urgent, the remedy may be given every twelve, six, or four hours, and even less if it do good. This repetition however is not even quick enough for the dangerous and rapid advance of some acute diseases. Thus in Cholera Asiatica, one of the most speedily fatal diseases, that we are acquainted with, at the beginning of the disease, we must ad- minister every four or five minutes, two or three drops of a mild solution of Camphor, in order to se- cure prompt and certain relief. When the disease has fully developed itself, the appropriate remedies, such as Cuprum, Ipecacuanha, Veratrum, Phos- phorus, Arsenic, &c, are given every hour or two. In cases of colic, cramps or spasms, the remedy best SELECTION OF MEDICINES. XXIX adapted to the respective disease, is to be repeat- ed at short intervals, say every fifteen or twenty minutes, as the urgency of the symptoms and the effects of the medicine may indicate. In these and similar cases, it is convenient to dissolve twelve or fifteen globules of the medicine, or a drop of the tincture, if this form of the medicine be used, in six or eight tea spoonsful of water, and give one of them every ten minutes. If the patient is not speedi- ly relieved by the remedy first chosen, another must be selected and tried in the same manner, always remembering not to use the same glass or cup for dif- ferent medicines, unless first well cleaned. In Croup, that scourge of infancy in this country, the appro- priate remedies, viz: Aconite, Hepar sulphuris and Spongia Usta, are to be exhibited in quick succes- sion. For example, if there is fever, give two or three doses of Aconite at intervals of fifteen or twen- ty minutes, until it makes some favourable change in the case, then tenor twelve pellets of each of these other medicines may be dissolved in six or eight tea spoonfulls of water, and a tea spoonfull of each remedy in solution may be given every fifteen min- utes, till the urgent symptoms abate, and afterwards the intervals between the doses may be increased. In diseases less dangerous and rapid in their course, the administration of a suitable remedy in doses of five or six globules placed upon the tongue, or dis- solved in a spoonfull of water, once in twenty-four hours, will be sufficiently often. In other cases, where aggravations and remissions in diseases occur daily, remedies adapted to each state may be given during its manifestation. In intermittent fevers the remedies to be chosen should have the faculty of producing in a healthy individual, the most promi- nent symptoms exhibited by the patient during the XXX SELECTION OF MEDICINES. paroxysm and intermission, carefully attending to the accessory phenomena. The time of adminis- tering it is immediately or very soon after the ter- mination of the paroxysms. Thus given, it has time to produce in the system, all the effects which it is capable of towards a restoration of health. If the period between the paroxysms is very short, the remedy must be given as soon as the fever subsides, or the sweating stage begins. In chronic diseases, medicines are to be repeated less frequently than in other cases. Hahnemann thinks that Sulphur in its mildest form ought not in most cases to be given oftener than once in seven days—and this period is to be lengthened in propor- tion as the patients are more delicate or excitable. Each remedial agent must be adapted to each indi- vidual, as well with respect to the symptoms as with respect to the strength of the dose and its repetition. Each case must be studied by itself, and treated distinctly, and the nature of each must lead to the discovery of the remedy, the dose and the repetition. In the treatment of all diseases of a chronic na- ture it is to be observed, that the remedies must not be repeated so frequently as in other cases. The appropriate remedy may be given daily, or once in two, three or four days, according to the intimate nature of the case, to the constitution of the patient, and to the effect it has produced upon the symptoms. After all, no absolute dose can be fixed upon, either with respect to strength or repetition—experience must teach us how the dose ought to be varied both in quantity and frequency, yet the experience of one practitioner may differ from another, and both may be equally successful. In the exhibition of Homoeo- pathic medicine, the following rule has pretty gener- ally been adopted by all practitioners, viz: not to re- SELECTION OF MEDICINES.

The following observations on the homoeopathic treatment of syphilis extracted from the work of Doctor Attomyr, on the venereal disease, although not contained in the work of Ruoff, were deemed of sufficient importance to be inserted here. Trans- lator. " With respect to the treatment of the various forms of the venereal disease, we have in general nothing farther to add except that in this disease as in all others the general homoeopathic law of cure by similarity of symptoms is applicable, and here too proves its validity. Before entering specially upon the homoeopathic treatment of the venereal disease, it will be neces- sary to premise some few remarks, which deserve consideration when viewed in reference to my ther- apeutical results. Syphilitic patients, with very few exceptions, are young unmarried men, who either board at the hotels or sit at table with their relations, or proba- bly superiors. In either case it is unfortunate for the observance of the homoeopathic diet, and indeed much worse here than it would have been in Ger- many or any other Austrian province, for in Hun- gary far greater quantities of condiments and acids are used with food than in other places. To this must be added the fact that patients conceal their disorders, and in order not to excite suspicion, dare not venture on the slightest aberration from their accustomed diet. In consequence of these uncer- tain dietetic circumstances, 1 resolved in treating such patients to administer larger doses than usual 208 I am still of the opinion that the lower dilutions recall re-action quicker, but that their effects are less intensive and permanent than the higher. Four grains of calomel in the space of a few hours ope- rate violently, and excite diarrhcea, while the same four grains, if taken in minute portions, result in an indisposition, which continues several days, and in a more intense commotion of the organism. I more- over concluded from these premises that the larger doses could be repeated more frequently, which would seem essential on account of the necessarily frequent dietetical errors. Within the period of two years I treated 156 patients labouring under the venereal disease. Every physician knows how it is with office practice, how difficult to learn any thing or obtain any certain experience in this man- ner. Generally one half of this class of patients stay away, so that it is impossible for us to decide with certainty upon the termination of their disor- ders. The one remains away because the effects of the treatment did not fulfill his anticipations, the other (and among syphilitic patients the majority,) because he is approaching convalescence, and is desirous of avoiding the burdensome ttumksgiving for his cure. This last occurred so frequently to me that during the treatment of an interesting case I was always fearful, as I was led to expect that as the cure progressed, my patient would remain away, and I be unable to arrive at any certainty with regard to the termination of the case. I requested a patient with eleven chancres (seven of which of the size of a lupine seed were situated on the scrotum) after all were healed, but two of them still presented cicatricular depressions, to re- turn in eight days and let me see if the two scars had also disappeared. My patient, however, did not return, notwithstanding I had clearly given him 209 to understand, that I had no reference to his return- ing thanks, but merely as a subject of scientific interest. This plan was so often adopted towards my patients that they ironically termed me the " gratis Doctor," for which I in return during the last three months of my residence in Presburg, punished them very sensibly, although I am sorry that punishment in many instances fell upon those who were innocent. So it happened that of the 156 patients treated, I cannot cite more than 84 who persevered until perfectly cured, and most of these, at my request, returned, and were examined by me fourteen days after their convalescence. Were cured of Chancres, ... 34 Gonorrhoea, . . .24 Gleet, ... 9 Balano-blenorrhoea, . 2 Bubo, ... 10 Hernia humoralis, . . 2 Nodes and eruptions, . 2 I have observed the following five varieties of chancre. First form. The edges more or less jagged, ele- vated, slightly painful, but sensitive when rubbed by the linen, with a copper-coloured circumference. The base of the sore is indurated, lard-like, the ichor adheres so firmly to it that it cannot be re- moved by washing. The ichor is of a light yellow colour, viscid, glutinous, resembling pus, sometimes acrid, offensive; it makes spots on the linen as if from melted tallow. The sore extends far more in depth than in breadth. This form appears on all parts of the glans, and also on the prepuce, but more frequently on the posterior part of the glans near its junction with the prepuce. 210 Second form. The sores are superficial, not only do not extend in depth, but are perceptibly elevated above the surface. The edges are never jagged, always sharply circumscribed, painless. The sore looks clean, of a flesh red colour, almost spongy, it is never necessary to clean it as the ichor does not adhere. The ichor is somewhat thinner than in the first form, usually more copious and mixed with blood. This form heals sooner than the first, ap- pears almost exclusively on the prepuce, and there are always several sores present at the same time. Third form. The sores of the second form gra- dually become elevated so much above the surface of the prepuce that they resemble more a horizon- tal section of a wart than an ulcer. This form discharges very profusely. The ichor is more of- fensive than in the two preceding forms, but still not so bad as it is in those which follow. It is unusual for all the chancres of the second form to become converted at the same time into those of the third, therefore these two forms are usually coexistent. This variety frequently heals very quickly. I have never seen true condylomatous forms of disease arise from this. In my case book I have given the compound name of "chancre wart" to this form, which term, on account of its brevity, I will still retain. Fourth form. The corona of the glans is almost one ulcerated surface. This frequently extends to the posterior part of the glans; occasionally, at the same time, to the prepuce also. The sore is quite superficial, here and there lard-like, but the greater part red and thinly coated with matter, which can be readily washed off. The ichor, which is very profuse, is somewhat less consistent in this than in the varieties already described, and is of a very fetid odour, which apparently depends upon the 211 simultaneously increased secretion of smegma. The sore appears as if the skin had been torn off. This form either heals as such by contracting from the edges towards particular points, forming several chancres, which are nearly separated or only united by linear excoriations; or the above described lard- like spots extend more in depth, and chancres of the first form appear. This fourth variety of chan- cre has a tendency to appear in company with gonorrhoea. Fifth form. A chancre which in its incipient state has the appearance of the first form, in a few days becomes covered with a scab which presents the appearance of a psoric sore. The scab absorbs the fluid secreted beneath it, and thus becomes thicker and does not fall off until the sore beneath it has healed. This variety appears either on the common integument of the penis or directly on the verge of the prepuce, which becomes swollen, looks as if excoriated, burns severely while and after urinating, when walking is disturbed the pressure of the linen to which it slightly adheres. This variety I term the " psoric chancre" and conjecture that it arises from a complication of syphilis and psora, which conjecture is strengthened not only by the appearance of the sore, but also by the violent pru- ritus and the favorable results attending the ad- ministration of Sulphur. This form generally ap- pears simultaneous with one of the varieties already described. In the treatment of these different forms of chan- cre, I have by degrees been obliged to resort to the following eleven remedies: Mercurius solubilis, Merc, didcis, Merc, sub- limatus corrosivus, Acidum nitric, Thuja, Hepar sulphur., Corallia rubra, Acid phosphor., Sul- phur, Causticum, Staphysagria. 212 In the first variety of chancre, Merc, solub. is the chief remedy, it is not however adapted to half the cases. Thuja comes next to the quicksilver in this variety. The patient usually took a few doses of Mercur., then a few doses of Thuja, and when its beneficial influence appeared to cease the Mercury was resumed. In addition to these, I administered Merc, dulcis., Sublim. corrosiv. and Causticum in several obstinate cases, and I believe I have ob- served considerable improvement in this form after each of these remedies. In the second form Acidum nitric is the chief remedy. When this form is purely pronounced without complication, particularly with the third form, the Nitric acid acts very promptly and in twenty days, at the extent, the disease is cured. I have however cured, or evidently assisted the cure of several of these cases with Mercur. and Thuja. In the third form Thuja appears preferable to Acid, nitric, although the latter as well as Mercu- rius solub. is a very effectual remedy in this variety. In one case, Acid, phosph. acted very strikingly. Staphysagria in another in the same prompt man- ner. In the fourth form preference must be given to Corallia rubra. Although this remedy is capable of curing a chancre of this variety in fourteen or at the extent eighteen days, yet still it does not appear to be able to prevent this form from becoming convert- ed into the first by which the treatment is consid- erably prolonged. Nitric acid may be ranked with Corallia in the treatment of this form and in several cases in which rapid improvement did not succeed the administration of Corallia, and where the pru- ritus was very vehement, I gave Sulphur which cured the disease in toto. In the fifth form which was the most rare, Sul- 213 phur was the chief remedy. Hepar Sulphur, oper- ated favourably in this form when complication with bubo existed. At first I gave Merc, solub. in doses of a drop of the fourth dilution, and when this was all gone I re- sorted to the fifth. At the beginning of the treat- ment I repeated the medicine every six or seven days and afterwards every three or four days. I have however cured several chancres with X000 and 4C0°. Nitric acid and Thuja were given in similar doses, but also with effect in the thirtieth dilution. Of Corallia, 1 gave about a grain of the third trituration. Sulphur and the liver of sul- phur I always administered in the X000, also Caus- ticum, Staphysagria and Phosphoric acid, and the two other preparations of mercury in the third potence. One month was about the average time required to cure a chancre, several healed in four- teen days in which cases I must remark that these patients were individuals who were able to follow strictly the homoeopathic dietetic regulations. In several cases, six weeks or more were consumed in the cure of the chancres, for which the patients themselves were infault, as several confessed to me that they were not able to refrain from coition during the treatment. The articles of diet which I forbade were, 1. Acids', as vinegar and lemon-juice. 2. Spirituous drinks: wine, whiskey, beer, li- quor and all alcoholic drinks; beer I would have al- lowed, had it not been adulterated with bitter plants. 3. Spices, or rather medicines which have crept from the apothecary shop into the kitchen, as cof- fee, tea, pepper, cinnamon, vanilla, the cayenne pepper, (Capsicum annuum) which is used in Hunga- rv, cloves, caraway and aniseed. 214 I also advised my patients to avoid the use of pomatum, medicated dentifrice, and perfumery of every description. Smoking 1 did not forbid, be- cause no one would have obeyed me in this parti- cular. One of the most important directions during the treatment of chancre, relates to mental and parti- cularly bodily quietude. The patient should go out as little as possible, walk very slowly, not wear tight pantaloons, or remain long standing, and on no account, drive or take horse exercise. My at- tention was directed to this latter circumstance se- veral years ago, by the experienced Dr. Miller, attached to the medical staff in Pest. As 1 treated but few venereal patients after that period, this circumstance was forgotten. In Presburgh, I treat- ed a young man more than seven weeks for a large deep chancre, which did not lose at all its lard-like base, and although it did not extend either in breadth or depth, it evinced no disposition to heal. The patient was too well acquainted with the supe- riority of Homoeopathy to adopt the advice of try- ing Allopathic treatment. While we were discuss- ing the probable cause which impeded the cure, my patient enquired whether it was not probable that daily horse exercise could be an injury? Dr. Mil- ler's advice now struck me. I forbid riding on horse- back, and in the course of eleven days the chancre was healed, the patient having remained in his room in his drawers, generally reclining upon the sofa. Corporeal rest is decidedly the best prophylactic against the formation of buboes. I must mention still another serious obstacle which greatly impedes the cure of all venereal diseases. I refer to the ex- cessive anxiety of those youths who are infected for the first time; they fancy that they see themselves 215 walking about without their olfactory organs and covered with eruptions and sores. At first I applied charpie to the sores; but as this became deranged and formed lumps, I preferred fine, clean, washed linen, (not new). I subsequently abandoned this also, as every foreign body adheres to the sore as soon as it commences healing and dis- charging, and on removing, irritates the chancre, and in general incommodes more than the secretions of the sore. I have treated patients with several chancres conjoined with Phymosis, without having seen the sores more than once, as the Phymosis occurred a few days afterwards and continued to the conclu- sion of the treatment. When the prepuce could be retracted, the chancres were either completely cured or very nearly so. When washing the sores, care must be taken not to press too violently upon them. Many patients gave themselves much trouble in endeavouring to wash off the lard like matter forming the base of the chancre. Patients should be informed that this is futile and injurious. It is entirely impossible to clean the base of the sore, as this must be removed by the process of suppuration, produced by the ac- tion of the appropriate remedy. Chancres of the first form generally discharge copiously, and for a long time, so that the patient's linen appears as much soiled as in Gonorrhoea. When I perceive this increased discharge make its appearance, I always continue the remedy which produced it, be- cause this increased suppuration of the sore, is the most natural remedy to cleanse and heal it. The period of increased discharge frequently occupies two thirds of the whole time employed in the cure. I have however frequently seen perfectly healthy sores, which were much diminished in size and su- 216 perficial, remain in statu quo without healing com- pletely. This apparently depends upon the conduct of the patient, on whom the cure has advanced thus far. If doubt arises respecting the nature of sores on the genitals, whether they are really chancres or not, it is adviseable to wait several days before ad- ministering our remedy. If in the course of six or eight days the sores are not healed, but have be- come larger, deeper, and the base lard-like, there can then be no doubt, the patient may talk as much as he pleases about the fidelity of his sweet heart. In concluding this subject I have still to remark, that in the cases of three patients afflicted with chancres, I observed vermin, which are not uncom- mon in syphilis, and by us termed "Filz lause," (Pediculus pubis). One of these patients, who was somewhat of a scrofulous diathesis, was troubled with them in two instances. I need scarcely remark that these patients observed the utmost cleanliness, as I do not at all consider these vermin as there- suit of filthiness. It is not improbable that they are produced per generationem aequivocam, in the same manner as in the itch, either by the discharge from the chancre, or in transpiration of the patient, and consequently may be ranked as the product of the venereal disease. Bueoes. Swelling of the inguinal glands consequent upon syphilis, are more dreaded by patients than any other form of this disease. It is well know how un- der Allopathic treatment they are plastered, cau- terised and incised again and again. I have treated eight patients with venereal buboes, without the necessity of one of them being confined to bed for a single day. A day or two before the spontaneous 217 rupture of the swelling, the patient experienced a slight tensive pain when walking, but not any other inconvenience either before or after that circum- stance occurred. The buboes usually broke while patients were walking, and had they not experienc- ed the sensation produced by the moisture, they would not have been aware of its occurrence. I have witnessed neither sinuses, fistulous openings, callous edges, nor partial remaining indurations, &c, in any of these cases, although 1 never made use of cataplasms to prevent induration, leeches for in- flammation, or of the knife or caustics in opening them. There is no doubt that buboes, which appear simultaneously with chancres, or immediately after their suppression with external remedies partake of the venereal character. Scrofulous glandular affections are usually readily recognizable from the general diathesis and the disorders of the glands in other parts of the body which are commonly present. But there are also buboes which appear sooner or later after coition without any other symp- tom of venereal infection. Whether these glandu- lar swellings are to be considered as venereal has not yet been determined by adequate experience. I have seen two such cases. The one an arthritic man aged thirty-eight, the other a young man of three-and-twenty. Both cases we., preceded by frequent coition, and in the case of the first indivi- dual, it was inordinate. In the first case the bubo which was confined to one side was cured by reso- lution under the use of Sulphur and Nitric acid, the second by suppuration by Nitric acid alone, In the latter case there were two buboes of the size of a hen's egg, one on each side. Buboes are treated homceopathically by the same remedy that is indicated for the particular variety 218 of chancre which they accompany. The medica- ment that cures the chancre frequently operates so powerfully upon the bubo, that the latter suppu- rates and heals before the chancre is completely cured, so that in this case the bubo does not alter the peculiar treatment adapted to the chancre. Sometimes, however, the bubo remains after the chancre has healed, and in this particular case does it first become necessary to adapt our therapeuti- cal efforts to the bubo itself. I made use of five remedies in the cure of buboes. Merc, solubilis, Acid, nitric, Sulphur, Hepar sulph., Calc, and Silicea. The two first remedies I gave in drop doses of the fourth dilution, at inter- vals of four or six days, the three last in the thir- tieth dilution, every eight days. Mercurius and Jicid. nitric operated better dur- ing the inflammatory state of the swellings, previous to their opening. After this had occurred, I ad- ministered Sulph., Silicea, and the liver of sulphur with good effect. I have frequently seen swellings of the inguinal glands arise in patients afflicted with very painful gonorrhoeas, in which much violent exercise was taken, particularly in individuals infected for the first time. In such cases I recommended the ob- servance of strict corporeal rest for a few days, and proceeded in the treatment of the gonorrhoea with- out reference to the inguinal swellings, and 1 have never seen them pass into suppuration or induration, or remain after the cure of the gonorrhoea. Condylomata. The cases of this affection, which have come un- der my notice, are too few in number for me to de- termine whether this form of the venereal disease belongs to the syphilitic, or whether it depends on 219 one of the various cachexies of Hahnemannian syco- sis. The first view is favoured by the fact of the concomitant presence of chancre and condylomata, as well as the degeneration of many chancres into condylomatous structures; while the circumstance that this form of disease frequently appears entirely alone without any admixtion with the other forms of venereal, and has the peculiarity which is foreign to chancre of occupying the anus at the same time, or selecting this part alone as its seat, favours the Hahnemannian views of sycosis. Be this as it may, the distinction is of no practical utility. The symp- toms of this disease direct the physician to the ap- propriate remedy, no matter whether he considers the first or last view as correct—a superiority pos- sessed by homoeopathy in the treatment of this as well as other diseases, which is not acknowledged only because it is "desirable to arrogate the appear- ance of science. In the case of a patient with two large condylo- matous excrescences on the anus, who had been previously treated by caustics, neither Thuja, Ni- tric acid, Acid, phosphor., Lycopod., Sulphur, Psorin, nor Sycosin were of any benefit. Staphy- sagria X000 repeated every five days, removed the disease almost entirely in the course of two weeks, so that I gave the patient a few doses more of the latter remedy, in hopes that the disease would be completely overcome in a short time; the patient, however, did not return; I therefore cannot say how the case terminated, although it is very proba- ble that the patient was cured. The condylomatous case, which I have mentioned as cured, was that of a patient with three condy- lomatous excrescences, which had been cauterised, but were reproduced. I gave him Thuja X10, se- ven days after Sulphur X, seven days later Acid, 220 nitric. 4, gutt. una. for two successive days, all without effect. The Thuja was now repeated but in the fourth dilution, a drop every third day, after which the excrescences were diminished one half in size. The repetition of Thuja of the fourth di- lution entirely cured the disease. Throughout this work I have avoided the recital of cases, for in this disease one case very much re- sembles all of the others. In sycosis I have made an exception in order to be able to introduce the remark that Thuja, which in this case was the proper curative when first administered, was not attended with any success, and did not prove bene- ficial until administered in a lower dilution after two other remedies had been given. I am perfectly willing that this favourable result should be as- cribed to the lower dilution, but must remark that in at least ten cases of intermittent fever, in which Ipecacuanha proved fruitless, and several other remedies given subsequent to it, likewise proved inefficient, that Ipecac, then administered in the same dilution and dose, was attended with the most favourable result. Gonorrhoea. This form of the venereal disease is of all others the most troublesome, as well for the patient as his physician. To the patient, as it is the cause of much pain, sleepless nights, fever and other analo- gous symptoms, which may result in inflammation and induration of the testicles, strictures of the urethra, &c, either owing to the misconduct of the patient or to the preposterous and violent allopathic treatment. Gonorrhoea is a troublesome disease to the physician, owing to its tendency to become chronic, and in the form of a gleet to continue long and obstinately. It appears to be the general cha- 221 racter of diseases of mucous membranes to run their course sluggishly. We frequently see catarrhs, in themselves unimportant, continue for several weeks. This is also the case with various mucous diseases of the nose, ear, vagina, &c, which are rendered chronic as soon as an increased mucous secretion appears. The usual time required to cure an acute gonor- rhoea was one month. Several were cured in four- teen days; a few cases degenerated into gleet. I experienced the best effect in the treatment of this disease from the exhibition of Cannabis in the fourth dilution, in drop doses, which were repeated at intervals of five or six days. I occasionally re- peated the remedy for two or three days in succes- sion, and then waited seven or eight days. Pulsatilla was given with effect also in drop doses of the fourth dilution, where general corpo- real agitation, very diminished appetite, evening chill, increased thirst, &c. were present. In three or four days, this febrile state was usually allayed, and I then again continued the Cannabis. A few globules of the 30th dilution of Cantha- rides were always effectual in very painful erec- tions, violent burning and strangury. In one case haematuria supervened, which was not relieved by Cantharides but by Mezereum. Mercur. solub. 4 gutt. una, effected a rapid cure in a case of Gonorrhoea attended with a greenish discharge. In this case however, several sores were present, which indicated the application of Mercu- ry. The Gonorrhoea was cured before the chan- cres. At first, before I had effectually tried the effica- cy of Cannabis, I tried Blennorrhin, in doses of several globules of the thirtieth dilution. A gonor- rhoea in which Copaiva proved inefficient, was 19* 222 cured in two weeks by two doses of Blennorrhin. In several other cases, this remedy effected consid- erable improvement, although it did not produce a complete cure. But as Cannabis with an inter- current dose of Pulsatilla, Cantharides, or in cases of very frequent urination, Petroselinum, act- ed very favourably in a majority of cases. I made no farther trials with Blennorrhin in acute gonor- rhoea, although I made use of it in gleet. Gleet. Nine cases of this disease were cured with Blen- norhin 30th, Sulphur 30th, and Cannabis 4th gutt. una. I repeated Cannabis every five, and the other two remedies every eight days. I am unable to mention any particular indications for the employment of any of these remedies. Generally Sulphur, given at first, produced considerable im- provement, diminished the discharge perceptibly, but excited slight burning in the urethra, after which I usually gave Cannabis with effect. I ob- served this frequently. I have however perfectly eured painless gleets with Cannabis aided by Sul- phur or Blennorrhin. As regards the dietetic treatment in gonorrhoea, all violent exercise must be avoided, if the testi- cles are sympathetically affected, the patient must wear a suspensory bandage, or at least support the testicles with a handkerchief. Beer should not be taken during the existence of acute or chronic gonor- rhoea. I saw discharges unattended with pain, repro- duced in several patients who indulged freely in wine immediately after their gonorrhoeas had been cured, it however soon disappeared, the very severe burning can be much diminished by the patient's drinking water very freely, by which means the 223 urine is increased in quantity and rendered less acrid. This innocent palliative produces great re- lief to the patient, and should therefore never be neglected. Inflammation of the testicles. I treated but two cases. One was in company with a gonorrhoea, or rather gonorrhoea conjoined with swelled testicle. The patient being afflicted with gonorrhoea went out a hunting in cold damp weather, and returned with violent pain in the testes. The disease increased during the night, and both testicles were swollen, hard, not bearing the slightest touch, the scrotum red and tense, some fe- ver which continued until the evening of the suc- ceeding day. There was scarcely any discharge from the urethra. Two doses of Clematis, 12th dilution, three globules, repeated every three days cured the disease, after which the gonorrhoeal dis- charge reappeared. Swelling of the epididymis of one of the testes, which still remained, was removed by Aurum iv. dissolved in water. The second case was a relapse, which had pre- viously been subjected to allopathic treatment. It was relieved by China IV000, and Aurum IV000. China was administered three times, Aurum twice. The patient should remain in bed and have the testes properly supported. Gonorrhoea glandis. Incorrectly so termed. It could with more pro- priety be called inflammation of the glans penis. I treated two cases. One case was conjoined with gleet. The glans was very red and swollen, small fissures appeared on various parts of it, and in a few days, a very offensive mucous secretion succeeded, which increased very much in a short time, and affected the prepuce also. Corrallia 3, about 1 224 grain repeated in four days cured the balano-blen- norrhcea, and Cannabis and Sulphur the gleet. The second case was connected with chancre, was not so violent, and was cured by the use of Mer- cur. A few years ago I cured several of these cases with Thuja X000. Nodes. The patient had been afflicted three years be- fore with a chancre which was cauterised. After taking a violent cold from exposure to moisture, the patient had a gouty attack. It was treated without effect; a depot formed on the tibia, which was at- tended with such violent boring and rending pains, particularly at night, that he was deprived of all nocturnal rest, and obliged to quit his bed. He then underwent a course of "Dzondischer" pills, which rather increased than relieved his malady. After the administration of half a grain of Hepar sulph., Calc. 3d trituration, he was able to sleep several hours in the morning. Two additional doses of He- par, given at intervals of eight days, removed the pain almost entirely, the patient ate, drank and slept as in health, though the swelling was not per- ceptibly diminished, this however disappeared en- tirely on administering three doses of Acid, nitric x, at intervals of from eight to ten days. The other patient had two osseous swellings of the size of a pigeon's egg on the head, and an erup- tion over the whole body, for the relief of which he had taken several hundred baths, and as many mer- curial pills. This patient was cured after eighteen months' treatment which was repeatedly interrupt- ed. Of course he took very many homoeopathic medicines, so that I am unable to mention the re- sults obtained by any particular one, especially as 225 during the latter period I treated him only by let- ter. Complications. Chancre and bubo—The treatment of this form of complication, has been described under bubo. Chancre and gonorrhoea—If the gonorrhoea is very painful, the treatment of the chancre which otherwise is preferable, must be suspended, and Cantharides or some other appropriate remedy be exhibited. This also holds good if profuse and con- tinued haematuria supervenes. Chancre and condylomata—In this case, the treatment can be united, as Thuja and Nitric acid are particularly indicated in both forms. Gonorrhoea and hernia humoralis—Here of course the latter must be treated without delay. The other complications are not of importance, and the treatment of them is obvious. Syphilis secundaria.
