an apoplexy. He fell down deprived of sense. When 

 raised up, he had the rattles in his throat ; his eyes were 

 closed, his face pallid, and his teeth fixt together. I drew 

 out his under lip so as to answer the purpose of a spout, 

 into which was poured a spoonful of- water, containing 25 

 or 30 drops of flour volatile alkali. At the same time two 

 slips of paper, the edges of which were wetted with volatile 

 alkali, were introduced into his nostrils. The teeth were 

 speedily separated, and the eyes opened. A second dose of 

 alkali was instantly poured down the throat. The rattles 

 ceased; speech and recollection returned. In the course of 

 an hour the patient recovered sufficient to proceed without 

 assistance about 300 paces to his own chamber. In an- 

 other hour he got up, asked for something to eat, and has 

 since experienced no return of the disorder." He reports 

 another instance in the person of one of his friends, who 

 was a great eater, and was struck with the apoplexy while 

 at table. " The volatile alkali excited a vomiting ; and after 

 that had abated, the patient took 20 drops of volatile alkali 

 in half a glass of wine. His senses returned, and in two 

 hours he was able to walk in his garden."
