LIST OF DISEASES IN LONDON, From the 20th of May to the 20th of June. Admitted under the Care of the Phyficians of the Finsbury Difpenfary.

[blocks in formation]

the lungs; independently of that local circumftance, the antiphlogistic regimen ought to be rigidly adhered to.

From a remote part of the island a perfon, a few days fince, applied to the Reporter, in confequence of a cutaneous affection, which he was unwilling to make known at the place where he refided, from an erroneous notion, that it might be infections, or at any rate not creditable.

Inftead of ordering unguents to the fkin, the writer prefcribed merely a fimple, tonic medicine to invigorate his habit, certain regulations with regard to diet and general condut, and, as a circumstance of effential efficacy, the ufe, two or three times a week, of the tepid bath.

In thefe reports it often has been repeated, and never can too deeply be imprefied, that it is not the exterior appearance, but the actual ftate of the internal frame that ought to guide the judgment and to regulate the conduct of the phyli

cian.

Difcafes of the fkin are amongst the most ftriking inftances of the validity of this obfervation.

obfervation. Upon the furface of the bo dy, more especially in hot weather, when the fecretion is more rapid, ftratum upon ftratum of filth is apt to accumulate, which, although not vifible to the naked eye, produces, in addition to a fenfe of languor and other difagreeable feelings, febrile, and a multitude of cutaneous difeafes. To the latter it is feldom that any external applications ought to be adminiftered, but that of warm or old wa

ter.

If cleanliness, in the most accurate and rigid fenfe of the word, were generally adopted, these complaints, and indeed a large proportion of other complaints, would be fenfibly diminished, and perhaps exterminated altogether.

At this period it is a paffion amongst the inhabitants of the metropolis to pay a temporary visit to the country; but it is a paffion founded upon a falfe philofophy. An excurfion into the country no doubt ftimulates and enlivens; but, like other itimulants, it acts only for a fhort time, and appears to produce, in some cases, a fimilar exhaustion. It is a chimerical idea, that you can lay up a stock of health for the winter; that is a fpecies of property which cannot be funded.

There is a difference between air and atmosphere, fince a multitude of mechanical particles, in many fituations, mix with the latter, which do not form chemical components of the former. These heterogenous ingredients are in this place owing, in a great measure, to effluvia from the manufactories, workshops, &c. of the city; on which account it is defirable for the inhabitants of that commercial district, when circumstances allow

of it, to feek for their hours of leisure and repofe, an afylum in the more western parts of the metropolis.

After all, it is not the atmosphere nearly fo much as the babits of London to which we are to attribute the diseases and comparative relaxation and debility of its inhabitants.

The writer does not flatter himself, that he is able, or if he were able, would he wish to give any check to the fashion of emigration.

To those who have no other occupation, that which affumes the name of amuse. ment is of indifpenfable importance.

Occupation in fact is every thing. It is an immutable decree of Providence, that no one can enjoy, who does not act; and that the health of our faculties of body, as well as mind, depends in a great meature upon the temperate and regular ufe of them.

The opinions of the Reporter may appear too pofitive. Decifion is often called dogmatism But no one can confcientioufly, or if he be conscientious, comfortably practife medicine, who has any doubts with regard to the theory and application of the science.

To prefcribe wiha hesitating mind, is not lefs dangerous, than to operate with a trembling hand.

Scepticifm in phyfic, as in other branches of study, indicates no fuperiority: bu, on the contrary, betrays either a defect of knowledge, or an obfcurity and inaccuracy of intellectual conception.

At the Marquis of Stafford's, in Arlingtonftreet, his lordship's youngest fon, Lord L. Gower, aged 13 months.

At Fulham, after a long and painful illnefs C. Parker, efq vice-admiral of the red, and fon of Sir Peter Parker, admiral of the fleet. He was a zealous, intelligent and active officer, and had diftinguished himfelf against the enemy on various occafions. His fervices in the late war, as captain of the Blanche frigate, in the Weft Indies, muft be fresh in every memory; and during the American war, when captain of the Diamond, he exhibited great and early proofs of his gal lantry. One trait, among many others, deferves to be recorded; having, by the command of Lord Rodney, reconnoitred the harbour of Curaçoa, within a fhort distance of the forts, he obferved in the offing, two of the enemy's cruifers, a Dutch frigate and an armed fchooner, to which he gave chace, and

[ocr errors]

foon brought them to action, but the fchooner fheered off, after receiving a few shots. Upon this, a Dutch line of battle ship in the harbour, flipping her cables, ftood off towards the Diamond. Captain Parker, however, continued the action until the enemy's frigate ftruck her colours. He took out some of the prifoners and did not relinquish his capture before several shots from the Dutch line of battle ship had paffed over the Diamond. Lord Rodney afterwards expreffed great regret that Captain Parker's account to him should have been fo flight as to prevent his ftating the circumstances to government in the high terms it merited.

[Further particulars relative to the late Marquis of Exeter, whofe death was noticed in our laft.-The late Marquis of Exeter was the tenth Earl of Exeter, LL.D.F.R.S. vice-prefident of the Society of Antiquaries, and a. moft liberal patron to the town of Stamford.

The late marquis was a nobleman of very extenfive and active charity. His remains were removed from Pembroke houfe, Privy-gardens, on the 9th of May, in order to their being depofited in the family vault of his lordship's illuftrious progenitor, Lord Burleigh, in St. Martin's church at Stanford.
