 This was used four or five times a day, till the patient 

 went away well on the 23d April, having been in the

Jane Seaman. 

 II. A black woman, by the name of Seaman, was re- 

 ceived into the New- York Hospital on the 15th July, 

 1806, with fluor albus. She was aged 23, and married. 

 On her reception she was modest about her complaint, 

 and feigned pains in her joints and limbs, which she re- 

 ferred to a cold she had taken. She was accordingly- 

 treated as a rheumatic patient, with guiacum internally; 

 the volatile liniment and tincture of capsicum, externally, 

 for two weeks, without effect. Growing weak by this 

 time, she ventured to tell the seat of her disease, which 

 had afflicted her for several months. 



This being known, the same injection as for Matilda 

 Blonck was given her, with the same directions. It 

 soon checked the discharge, which was profuse, and the 

 patient began to gain strength in a short time. In two 

 weeks more, she was recovered, and discharged cured 

 on the 14th August, being a month save a day.
