The Reporter has lately been called to 
feveral cafes of what were fimple althe- 
nize, but which had been previoudly re- 
garded, and treated as inflammatory af- 
fections of either the thoracic or abdomi- 
nal vifcera. 
Pain is generally, but in many inftances 
unjudly, confidered as an evidence of in- 
fiammation. It more frequently arifes 
trom the difficulty with which a debili- 
taied and obftru&ed organ performs its 
acciftomed and falutary office: Blifters 
relieve pain; but it is not fo much by 
their evacuating, as their ftimulating 
operation. They are cutaneous drams. 
In cafes, however, of extreme or chronic 
debility, fech external applications, by 
their irritation, are calenlated to aggra- 
vate the degree, and rerpetuaie the exiit- 
ence of that weaknefs with which the pa. 
tient is already affi&ted.. By acting upon 
the nervous iyftem, ov the fenforial power, 
blifters cannot be of any permanent or ef- 
fential fervice. What produces pain can- 
not relieve pain, except by diverting the 
attention trom one wneafy feeling to an- 
other. But, in fuch inftances, the inftu- 
ence of the imagination is vague, and al- 
reoft unlimited in itsextent. “Fhe reme- 
dy vrefcribed has not fo much effect as the 
reputed character of the prefcriber. A, 
patient who feels an imperfect faith in his 
phylician, is not likely to experience the 
due benefit of his medical direétions.— 
And, cn the other hand, an entire confi- 
dence in the information and talents of a 
profeffional advifer, not feldom gives a fa- 
fslutary efficacy to remedies which would, 
otherwife, have been infufficient, or inju- 
rious in their operation. 
Patients have recently occurred, in the — 
practice of the Reporter, among both the 
elegant and vulgar clafles of focicty, who 
were affected with what are called ner- 
vous difeafes—a clafs, in nofology, which 
may be made to comprehend, or to be 
Ke 
connected with, nearly all the corporeal 
as weil as mental afflictions to which the 
human frame is liable. 
are, in general, treated with too little de- 
licacy and refpeét. Nomaladies are cal- 
culated more to intereft the feelings of a 
humane man, or are more likely to re- 
ceive alleviation, if not a radical cure, — 
from a {fkilful and attentive practitioner. 
But, in fuch cafes, the operation of mo~ 
ral agents ought to be more efpecially ftu- 
died and applied.
