A. LARGE. 
In the synovitis case, there was great pain, temperature well up, 
animal sweating, anxious, refusing all nourishment. This condition was 
speedily improved under the action of the medicine, and no symptom of 
pyemia, that I had feared, appeared; the same local treatment was 
adopted during its use as had preceded it. 
The influenza case had been treated domestically for a week, was 
supposed to be convalescent, was driven and relapsed. 
When I first saw it, in the afternoon, the patient had eaten nothing 
during the day, pulse quick, weak, respiration quickened (no lung com¬ 
plication), temperature lOof F. Under the action of the remedy, with 
ammonia, the next morning I found breathing was tranquil, pulse slower 
and stronger, had eaten its breakfast, temperature 101, and did not 
again go up. In three days the patient was discharged. 
CEREBRO-SPINAL MENINGITIS, WITH HEMATURIA. 
By the Same. 
The patient, a chestnut truck horse, was taken, the latter part of . 
March, with slight paraplegic symptoms of cerebro spinal meningitis, 
and passing bloody urine; this was about noon. I saw him about 5 
p. m., when the symptoms were strongly marked, and what seemed to 
me pure venous blood passed in considerable quantities (every half 
hour or hour, as was stated by the attendant). 
The animal was placed under the usual treatment for the disease, 
with the addition of hypodermic injections of ergotine for the hematuria, 
with the result of completely checking it (the urine being natural) 
by noon of the next day. 
At 5 p. m., while visiting the patient, who walked better, and the 
urine still remaining clear, he suddenly presented head symptoms— 
twitching of ears, shaking and elevating the head—he, in a minute or 
two more, fell down and expired. Death caused by hemorrhage in 
the brain (apoplexy).

This case is cited only for the interesting and not common symp¬ 
tom of hemorrhage, and showing, by the after apoplexy, the passively 
dilated condition of the small vessels.
