Both anedical men recognised that they were in presence of a case which, it an attack of typhus fever, was certainly such as neithe et them had ever wituessed betore. When Dr. Stokes returned two hours tater, a great change hadtaken place. The patient Was ds sell-possessed as before, tat the Toft arm and breast were now comp! tely black. At hall-past one the young ian was sitting up in bed, discu i With his master; and as he conplained of Seat thirst, the latter went trom the bed- side to the window to mix a ecooline draught, but upon turning roand aljaos: instantly he saw, to his horroy, that col- dapse had setin, and by 2 pan., within twenty-four hours alter the first sien of in- disposition, withia eight or nine hours of thu appearance of any formidable symp- toms, aud within haltan hour of being in full possession of Lis faculties and of 2 considerable amount of muscular strength tne patient Was dead. A few other cases occurrred during the spring and euly summer, all presenting the same general features and all fatal; but, with the pearance of cholerain August, this stran al se vanished, With the appearance ot spring, however, it reapp d, One ol the earliest of the new cases was that of a healthy child about five years old. Mere the tirst symptom of illness appeared at 8. tems; tt Lh am. a small purple eruption appeared, generally diffuscd over the body, ut Ll p.m, the whole body was covered with large purple patches; coma gradually su- peryened, and at 3 pan. death. The last audible utterances of the child were com- plaints of cold. Another case oecurred at the Partobello Cavalry Barracks on the With or April, An oliicer had complained on the previous morning of feeling slightly mnwell, Ie got feverish towards n had little sleep, suffered from headache, and was occasionally incoherent. In the morning, wbout nine o'clock, purple spots appeared, Which spread rapidly both in size and number, until the whole body be- came covered with them, Collapse set in With the usual suddeness, and at TL acm. | he was dead. Within ten minutes atter death the superficial hue had given 1 toxrose red. In the following we boy about nine or ten yours old was at- tacked in the same rapid way. When seen at 1 p.m. his body was all dotted with purple spots; the pulse was scar per- ceptible at the wrist, but the action of th heart was perfect; he was is sult posses- sion of muscular strength and mental fac ulties, and felt so litte ill that he com- plained of being keptin bed. At7 p.m. he was dead. in the beginning of April the first provincial cases were noticed, ‘Lhey were connected with the troops who had been engaged in pursuit of the insur- gents through the Gallee mountains, wo or three soldiers, a married woman, and acouple of children were attacked; the wonkin and one of the soldivas recovered, the others died. ‘Lhe fatal cases were re- mirkaboe for great sulering, which no skill seemed capsile of relieving. Indeed the children appear to haye sereamed themselves f death in the violence of the pain which no efforts could mitigate. li al these cases there were indications of considerable inflamation of the brain and spinalcoluimn, A special interest attaches to these military causes, as throwing some Jight upon the question of contagiousuess. ‘Lhe mother ot the children washed for some of the soldiers ot the tlying column, uinong whom we have just mentioned the attacks ol the disease occured, and in this way the disorder may, it is conceived, ye been conimunieated, At this moment #& woman is in the Meath Hospital in Dub- Jin with her young child, both suffering from this malady; and Dr. Stoke, who has them personally in charge, has declared his conviction that this is an unquestion- able case ol contagion, It appears, then, that a strange and terribly tatal disease exists in Ireland, and as yet chieily in Dublin. ‘Phe general features of the pre- liminary st ave Lbillous vomiting and sometimes purging, aud usually headache ol unparatleled intensity, with incoherency. Tien comes the purple eruption, accom- panied, i most cases, by great debility, und followed by collapse and death. ‘Phe duration of tae ila is of a threefold variety. dn the t, Where the period is reckoned by hours, wne was fatal in tour hours trom the oceurrence of the first symptoms; but the ave ¢ is eighteen hours. he second variety iae!udes from three to six days, from the first inaceati ol indisposition to the fatal issue third varicty, in which alone any recoyer+ ivs haye taken place, embraces a period extending to many days, and even weeks. It is hardly necessary to say that in Dub- lin great interest is telt upon tho subject ainong the members of the medical pro- tessiou, and considerable anxicty has been awakened among the general public. Al- ready the Medical Association of the city has held two meetings, in one of whieli detailed and authentic reports of the cases observed were presented and read, while the other was devoted to a discussion of the character of the disease, it is not un- natural that, upon the latter point, medi- eal opinion should vedivided, Some eon- sider it to belong to the family of blood- gisons, of which in these countries typhus and typhoid fevers have hitherto been the chief specimens; and they refer as prools to the purple eruption and the rapid de- velopment, Others consider that it is a new form of cerebo-spinal malady, appeal- ing to the headache and injected character of the spots, and to the appearances usu- ally preseuted by the brain and spinal column in post-mortem examinations. They also cite, in confirmation of this view, the morbid sensibility of the surface, the dila- tation of the pupil and temporary loss of vision, the twitching of the muscles and convulsive spasms, the muscular rigidity and curvature of the spine, which olten accompany the disease, and the displace- ment of the head, paralysis, and other af- fections which frequently retard the very few cases of recovery. Others, again, suggest that two distinct types of disease soit in theso cases, and by their com- mingled symptoms give occasion to con- fasion of diagnosis und pathology.

We hope he may be able to add alarge number of names to his list. : te Last week we gave the names of the different Wesleyan Ministers appointed for this Island by the Conference now git- ting in Halilax. It appears that the list has since been ‘entirely changed. The following is a correct list:— Charlottetown.—Wm. Pope. Cornwall.— Mr. Winterbottom. Murray Harbor.—Mr. W. W. Percival. Summerside—Mr. Albert DesBrisay. Centreville—Mr, Wedall, and a young man, whose name we have not heard. bay We have received the first number of the **Le Moniteur Acadian,” a French paper published in Shediac by Israel J.D. Landy. A newspaper in the French language was very much needed by the Acadian inhabitants of this and the neighboring Provinées; and we hope that its enterprising proprietor will be well patronized by the Krench speaking population. ka Divino Service will be held in the Presbyterian Church, Summerside, on Sab | bath evening next, the 14th inst.
