APPENDIX. — STOMACH STAGGERS. 367 



siderable, the ariimal appears to suffer the 

 most excruciating pain ; and though generally 

 delirious or stupid, it is very different from 

 that furious madness, which indaniniation of 

 the brain occasions. When the stomach stao- 

 gers has ha|)pened to horses at grass, they 

 are generally found in the hedge ; and if 

 trtken out, are always attempting to go 

 forward until they meet with some obstacle, 

 and are so insensible, that if a deep ditch or 

 pit lie in their way, they do not endeavour 

 to avoid it, but generally fall into it. I ne- 

 ver saw a case in which there was not that 

 convulsive twitching of the chesL, and tot- 

 tering of the fore -legs, before described: 

 yellowness of the eyes and mouth is al&o a 

 constant symptom. I thought it necessary 

 to be thus particular on this subject, a.« 

 is really a very serious and destructive dis- 

 ease, and, unless treated in the way I have 

 pointed out, almost aUva3's proves fatal. I 

 shall subjoin a few formuljs for the medicijies 

 to be given in this disease.
