This oonjunction of eruptive fevers, if admitted as the correct view of these cases, presents an exception to the principle so emphatically laid down by John Hunter, and to a very great extent adopted by his succesors, that two different fevers cannot exist in the same constitution at the same time. There is little doubt, however, that this principle cannot be accepted rigidly and without modification. Many parallel instances have been cited by Mr. Marson from his own experience at the Smallpox Hospital, and communicated to the Royal Medico-Chirurgical Society in a paper read May 20th, 1847. \" Thus,\" concludes Mr. Marson, \" either from personal observation, or from the writings of others, I present examples of the simultaneous occurrence of variola and scarlatina, variola and rubeola, variola and pertussis, variola and vaccinia, rubeola and scarlatina, rubeola and vaccinia, rubeola and pertussis, varicella and vaccinia, pertussis and vaccinia\" Rhazes, as already obse-rved, in his Treatise on Small-Pox, bestows great pains in establishing the diagnosis of that disease from measles, and labours to show that Galen had also accurately distinguished between them. In the words of Dr. Montgomery, \" the most remarkable inaccuracy prevailed in former days on this subject (the diagnosis of eruptive fevers), since we find Sennertus, in the middle of the seventeenth century, discussing the question ' why the disease, in somie constitutions, assumed the form of small-pox, and in others that of measles;' and in a posthumous work of Diemerbroeck, published in 1687, it is laid down that small-pox and measles are only different degrees of the same affection. The same doctrine was still more recently maintained by Lauge, a professor at Leipsic.\" (Cyclopodia of Practical Medicine.) Such having been the confused state of the diagnosis of measles and small-pox, we should be prepared to find no less confusion between measles and scarlatina. This is to be observed in the names under which the latter has been known, e. g., morbilli confluentes, rubeola rosalia, febris rubra, enarthesis rosalia. Although Sydenham had completely estabhshed the differences between small-pox and measles, the latter and scarlatina continned to be regarded as varieties of the same fever. So gradually indeed did the distinction become recognised, that it is not klown by whom the word Scarlatina was first employed. Dr. Montgomery (Cyclopirdia of Practical Medicine, Art. \"Rubeola\") observes \"in our country Morton maintained the identity of measles and scarlatina, and considered the relation existing between them the same as that between distinct and confluent small-pox. Even so recently as 1769, Sir William Watson confounded these two diseases, the correct dingnosis of which ought probably to be referred to the tinme of publishing the second edition of Dr. Witbering's Essay on Scarlet Fe","PeriodicalId":88830,"journal":{"name":"Association medical journal","volume":"13 1","pages":"1063 - 1065"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1856-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81592341","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The reduction in the army at present going on will doubtless free the ranks of numbers who, except from the emergency of the war, could never have gained admission. The Guards are now sending their undersized men back to their homes; and the Act for limited enlistment (for two years) causes a further reduction. It has often been the fashion to sneer at and ridicule the physical appearance of a manfacturing population like that of the West Riding; but, after seeing some of the metropolitan and southern regiments of militia, I will undertake to show as fine a body of soldiers in the Yorkshire regiments as any in the kingdom, and in a state of discipline surpassed by none.

The state in which the heart was found had either been brought about by intense inflammation with an injected condition of the cellular substances, followed by serous infiltration pressing on the muscular fibres, and thus directly weakening them, or diminishing their consistence. Or, this weakness might have been secondary, there being first the common condition of inflammation of a tissue in close connexion with muscle; viz., excitement, followed to undue extent in these cases by depressed vitality of the contiguous muscular fibre, which persisted. The weakened contractile force of the heart would cause smallness, irregularity, and feebleness of the pulse; but not necessarily slowness. This might or might not depend wholly upon \"nervous paralysis of the heart's cavities,\" from the morbid changes extending to the cardiac ganglia; but I think a mechanical reason may be given to account in some measure for it. From the congested state of every organ after death, we may infer that the same condition was present to a great extent during life; and the heart must have partaken in this repletion. With weakened, atrophied muscular fibre, and inelastic lining membrane, the organ refused to be stimulated by the normal influx of blood into the systemic ventricle; but a gorged condition arising, the blood slowly oozed into the aorta, and was conveyed at a sluggish pace over the body. We may explain the changes in the nutrition of the muscle and its atrophy, by adopting Dr. Hodgkin's idea of defective nourishment, from partial blocking up of the coronary arteries by this fibroid deposit. Unfortunately, these vessels were not examined. I regret, also, that percussion was not employed for the purpose of testing the undue sonorousness of the chest, by which, according to M. lavirotte (Rev. Med. Chir., tom. xviii, p. 229), we may diagnose fibrinous concretions of the heart. If polypus obstructs the circulation, causing the lungs to receive less blood, and thus rendering them less dense, thickened endocardium, bulging into and diminishing the calibre of the ventricles, would act in the same manner. We may have hyperemis and anmmia each producing cerebral symptoms, such as were witnessed in these cases ; but there can be little doubt that here a defective supply of blood to the brain was the cause of them. Yet there probably was at times a state of passive congestion, causing hebetude and headache; and the second patient told me that he had been much troubled with epistaxis for a week or two before admission.","PeriodicalId":88830,"journal":{"name":"Association medical journal","volume":"1 1","pages":"1050 - 1052"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1856-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89377898","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
