I have more than once given fine green Tea in fabftance with 
fome diluting vehicle, and obferved the fame effects nearly as 
are produced from taking the infufion. Thirty grains of this 
kind of Tea powdered, taken three or four times at as many 
hours interval, generally relaxes the folids, diminifhes heat and 
reftleffnefs, and induces perfpiration. Such a dofe as produces’ 
a flight naufea, which this quantity ufually does, more certainly 
- induces a perfpiration, and a mitigation of the fymptoms ac- 
companying inflammatory complaints. If this dofe be doubled, 
the naufea and ficknefs will be increafed, and a difagreeable 
fenfation or load is felt for fome time about the region of the © 
ftomach, which ufually goes off with a laxative ftool.
