Homoeopathy is that individualizing healing art which, like all her true disciples, seeks to exclude more and more all accident and chance. The generalizing physicians, who
concede a large part of their success in healing to chance, just save to themselves the appearance of being scientific by their rampant skepticism; and greatly do they need

In some cases (spoken of in the Organon, ? 169 & 170) where two medicines appear to correspond to a ease one of them to one group, the other to another group, we may suggest that after the one has been given and overcame one part of the complex of symptoms, the other might be given next to overcome the

the case. Such cases have been the offspring of the doctrine of alternate medicines. Both together being out of question as, then, they ought to have been proved together. After a certain succession has been of a good etfect more than once, it may be considered excusable of a similar good result, but never have we the slightest excuse to to suppose a repetition might be
suppose such a thing a priori. As an example of the worst kind we may mention the alternation of Aconit. and Belladonna in scarlet fever, which has proved to be the most absurd and most injurious in innumerable cases, because Aconit. rarely, if ever, is indicated in scarlet fever, even not in the beginuin"', when it may lessen the fever, and the fever being of course beneficial, spoil the case. Belladonna and Rhus have been really indicated in scarlet fever and have been given one after the other, and in
many cases with benefit alternately but since we know when to give Calcarea or when Ammonium, we do not depend any more on such miserable makeshifts. Alternation is thus among true Homoeopathicians to be understood as Hahnemann understood it, and never to be decided on a priori. C.Hg.

Still a beginning had to be made in order to find out which are useful and which not, and to know which comparisons we had to make only in our own mind (as we do in other natural sciences.) This is our great aim, and to come nearer to it the work of Gross is a stepping-stone, a transition. As a selection had to be made, it seems that Dr. Gross took Aconitum and Pulsatilla on the one hand, and Sulphur and Arsenicum on the other, and added gradually what he considered next to most important. Here are about five hundred comparisons of one hundred of our most generally used drugs.

The effects of both remedies principally besin on the right side, extending afterwards to the left, and both are only eflective when the complaint of the patient develops in the o[)posite direction. For instance the hardness of hearinir, which indicates Ammon. carb., is cured more effectually by it, when the complaint began on the left side and extended or threatened to extend to tlie riirht side inflammations of the ears or earache, indicating Belladonna, are more certainly cured by it, when they appeared first on the left then on the right side.

Z. vol. 63, p 86, who pnbiished it to instruct some isrnorant wiseacres who objected to our Caimticiim, because we do not know what it is, according to the theories of the chemistry of our day. But we can prepare it, can use it and heal the sick with it according to its symptoms, and it is one of our most valuable instruments. Twenty years aso the chemists discovered Ozon, twenty years hence they may tell us, what Hahnemann's Causticum is why should we wait for that and let the sick suffer ? C.Hg.

N.B. In accordance with the character of increased susceptibility, which is peculiar to Cantharides, this remedj- lacks the sensation of numbness in sutfering parts peculiar to Lycop. N.B. Dr. LuDLAM, on diphtheria, calls our attention to Cantharides in cases where the patient has urinary difficulties, too copious or difficult micturition, the urine containing shreds or casts of the
uriniferous tubuli, shows extreme prostration, sinkins, death-like turns, particularly if there appears a rash upon the skin or under (shining through) the epidermis. As Lycop. also has the urinary difficulty and according to Dr. Raue (Lecture on Diphtheria), the latter is indicated when the fauces have a darkish hue, worse on the right side, which is not unsimilar to Cantharides, we may be able to decide by Ludlam's other characteristics, or by the following of Dr. Raue, f jf Lycop. (worse from swallowing warm drinks, has to breathe through the mouth, or dilates the nostrils with every inspiration, the child is naughty, cross, kicks, awaking from a nap) ; but in cases where such symptoms are not given, we may use the difl'erential comparison with advantage. Also look to Lachesis or Apis. C.Hg.

In accordance with the constitutinnal character of each remedy, we very rarely find the oversensitiveness of Nnx vom. to pain with Carb. veg., rarely with Nux vom. the sensRtion of numbness in snfTering parts, wliich belongs to Carb. veg. Mere sensitiveness (to touch, &c.) however, we find with both remedies.

all our medicines Carbo vegetabilis is, according to its symptoms, the most similar to the characteristic symptoms of yellow fever, as much so as Sulphur corresponds to the characteristics of Asiatic cholera. Hence each remedy respectively, when it can be given in time, is t)est <riven in the first symptoms of tliese epidemics, in order to reduce each case at least to a milder form an immense advantage. It is worthy of note that charcoal would put an end to the spreading of yellow fever, if tlie excrements of each patient, and every corpse, were covered by coarse charcoal powder ; but whether the internal use of it will prevent the disease with individuals has not yet been ascertained. Sulphur prevents Choi, asiat, with individuals, if the finest powder, called milk of Sulphur, is put into the stockings, so as to come in contact Avith the soles of the f"eet a pinch a day is sufficient to cause a gentle pouring out of sulphurated hydrogen through the pores of the ekin, all over the body, blackenin<r bright silver. But whether the substance which carries the disease is destroyed by it, has not been ascertained yet. C.Hg.

N.B. The aggravation of Cinchona-complaints, when lying on back, is apparently contradicted by two recenf cures (one of prolaps. uteri, and the other of Empyema). However, we cannot attach great importance to these cases, as lying on belly became unbearable on account of mechanical conditions. Neither can we attach importance to another cure with Cmchona, where bending the head back (when lying on belly) relieved relatively, because only in this way the patient could avoid lying on back, aud also avoid the aggrav. caused by enveloj^ iug the head (with the bedding).

N.B. In gouty complaints and erj'sipelas these remedies concur: Colchicum acts on the healthy, princijaily, from right to left, and was given, in many cases, with most decidedly good effect, when the gout commenced on the left and extended or threatened to extend to the right side Apis, which acts in the opposite direction, (L. to R.

The main
characteristic of Colocynthis is that it produces cramp-like pains in internal and external parts; tonic spasms with jamminfr, pressive pains, and in such is Staphisagria its main antidote. Hahnemann. Causticum, Colncynthis, and - taphisagria are nearly related, and oitca one, after its effects cease, will indicate the other. They may all be followed by Sepia, our great finishing remedy. C.Hg.
