thofe Maladies vulgarly termed Nervous 
by P. PomMge, Phyfician.., 
Thife are two very ) eee ouaaaty 
works, and exhibit the vanity of this 
French phyfician in no common point of 
view. At the end of the former, we find 
a variety of medica] reflections on the tee 
lady and death of the late General in Chie 
ef the army of St. Domingo ; ; and we are 
affured, that Le Clere was the victim of 
“ pretended antifpalmodics, and a medi- 
cine wholly pharmaceutic, and {ill more 
burning. than the climate of the Wet 
Insies.”” His malady, we are affured, 
was wholly nervous, and he might have 
bren cured by a mode of proceeding dia- 
metrically eppefite to that which was em- 
ployed : in ciher words, ‘* by baths, 
veal and chicken broths, remedies with 
which the author, in ele cafes, has 
fnitched from certain death, a number of 
victims. 7? 
In fine, Citizen Pomme is a decided 
foe not only to all anti-lp. almodics, but to 
purgatives, bleeding, and pharmacy, &c. 3 
and hedemonftrates, by means of a theory 
founded on numerous obit crvations, anid 
mutt aftonithing ecrrtificates, that nothing 
is more eafy than to cure nervous diieafes, 
wuhout either medicine or a pbhyfician?. 
His wonderful fuccefs has, of courte, ex- 
cited againft hios a number of enemies 
among the interefted clais of furgeens, 
apothecaries, and phy ficians ; but ** the 
practice and’ experience of half a century, 
added to a mode of treatment confantly 
crowned with thé moti brilliant {ucceis, 
is the reply See he will condeicend to 
make.”’ 
He tells us that he is now 77 years of 
age, and has not exercifed his profeflion
