Uen.CliDgma (iires Some latefesfing foraiajioa a t the Csiratirs Prop ertieset Teaccan ce om Re" mailable Cases.; & a -j From the Health and Home. Believing that euch knowledge of the advantages of wet tobacco as a poultice, as I bave acquired, if it should become general, will De in strumental in saving annuany many thousands of lives in the United States, I have decided that it is my duty to make a statement on the subject.- T 1 To do this properly will require sonWspace, as mere condensed pro positions or statements will not usuh ally make as much impression or bo as well remembered as things set forth in the form of a narrative of facte. I ought at the outset to state that I never chewed, smoked, or snuffed tobocco : I believe, however, that it ga perefal-oea8ioBS has saved my life, ana ua oiner rejspecw vkku ul essential service to me and many of my friends. The first instance I can remember of its usage as a remedy for inflam mations, was seeing Tom Kelly, when I was a boy, spurt its juice from his mouth into the eye of his horse very red from inflammation. He stated that he was curitig it in that way. I also early In life knew of its being applied to those who had been stung by wasps, bees, etc. When in college a student told me that he had cured a chronic inflammation by putting a nJ jnfcancifld mrself as agajididate 4or Congress, while carelessly riding a wild horse, the animal sprang against the fence and knocked me off, so that I lit on the ground with so much violence as to sprain mjf ankle very severely. As I had some miles to ride into Henderson, N. C.j before any remedy could be applied, the ankle had swollen to double itj size and very painful. Dr.-Whitehead directed a poultice to he apphedj After enduring sevre pain, for some hoars, I thought of trying tobaccoj for some leaves, had them wet and Wrapped around tho ankle, anc placed thepoultico over them to keef them moist. Within an hour the pain ceased, and I slept through th( eight, The ixext morning on exam inirig the tinklemstead of its being swollen it appeared rather less than its natural size ; the skin had a wrin-j kled appearance and was very whitei The membrane between the bonea which had received the shock, howl ever, was very tender, so that I was Tbiiged,4;otBse cratehes. During my canvass, which lasted four months,' I twice while travelling had it hurt by accidents, and each time subdued the pain, and swelling by the use of tobacco. During the war, by the faffing-of a galloping horse, I was thrown over nis head and sprained the same ankle badly, and used tOf bacco with the like effect. j - My next application of it was t a severe gunshot wound, on the 19th of August, 1864, near Petersburg! Va. A bullet ranged through mj leg, from near the arkle, so as to come out on the opposite side, r just below the knee, cutting the muscle and nerves and making a long and very painful wound, i lost so much blood that I was carried from the field in an insensible condition. X was so feeble' that the surgeons ex pressed great apprehension that I might not be. able to survive the fever which they expected would come on in a few days. About that time sev "eral'of my friends had died of the secondary fever which followed theii tnintfgv Iff a few days my left leg began to swell and throb with heat. Tbe surgeons said I must" keep it 9fcagpE in wet cloths. I told them that I would keep down the inflam mation by an application of tobacco. They at once asserted that such an application would be ruinous. Aftel rtiey left I-sent my servant for soma tobacco, enveloped the leg in it, and kept it wet with the cloths over it The pain m an hour or two diminish ed, and the heat and throbbing ceased and I rested more quieUy. than I bad beeittaiBg.iik On tha nexfcday, wheri the surgeons called to see me, on looking at the wound they expressed much surprise ana said, xou may keep on the tobacco." I remember that (Jen. Robert E. Lp called to sed me that day, and after looking at me said, "Oh, General, you are not going to die. your eye is too bright." The tobacco being a powerful nerve tonic j it always greatly excites my intellec tual faculties. Although several months passed Detore 1 could walk witnout crutches; yet,I had no fever and. -little pain from the inflammation. I am satis fied that if,Jbacco were properly applied, that no external wound would ever become sufficiently in flamed to cause taoMfficatfon. " . -In-tha year-1867,- in-the.. City o New York, as I was riding in an om4 nibus, while looking out oi an opeii window I received a heavy blow oq my right eye from the whip of th driver, who had aimed the blow at the head of a horse which seemed about t interfere with him. He missed the horse's head and the full force of the :enLof the whip fell di rectly on the: centre of my 'open eye. The pain was excessive, and the sight was entirely taken away abso lute blackness seemed before it. Pas sengers in the; stage said to me, ''You had better get out and seek relief for you don't .know how that eye looks." I soon' reached my hotel, and en getting into it sent one ser vant for a piece of tobacco and an other for two physicians with whom I was acquainted. The tobacco came first, ana just as I had- placed it on and secured it with proper bandages, the doctors came in. I told them what had happened and that I had just put on. the tobacco. They said tobacco would be ruinous.. As soon as I got off the bandage and they saw the eve., their coun tananreta maiyipH lUcrfatl; (for I could see them with my left eye, ofcomue.) They said 4 'it will be very, difficult to save that ye." I replied that if , it could be saved the tobacco po-ultice would do it. They reiterated their objec tions; but I told them I should try it, and asked them to come back in the morning. After they left I restored the tobacco and kept it well wet by puttmg my faceirom time to time in a bowl of water, so as to retain the moisture steadily. The night was one of the most painful of my life; but as it progressed the pain seemed to slightly diminish; yetven in the morning I still suffered, About ten o'clockjOM, pi tha physlcuuig called to seediHiaidJtobtM'llif bandage. As soon as I did so, J . knew .the eye was betteri for I -could eee the out lines of the open rindow before ma. The doctor imme4iately said, "I was never more astonished in my life," for your eye instead of being swollen and black, as I expected to see it, is shrunk and less than the other eye, and the lids are white. He insisted that he ought to allowed tostimulate it bj.aaapplicationv-butaa Idid not desire to have a permanent reaction, My twjther,. who is a ptticticihR CHARLOTTE O physician in North Carolina, to whom I had explained tne uses 01 lODacco, told me that some years ago, when sore throats were an epidemic in his neighborhood, he had used tobacco in more than a dozen cases, always with success, while other physicians in that vicinity had lost some of their patients, having treated them differ ently. My next application of tobacco was for etysipaJas of the head. Some years ago, when in Ealeigh, N. C, I had several tipjuries of the head, which were' s"o serious that an appre hension was felt for some days that I might not be able to recover. After I had been for perhaps a week under the treatment of Dr. E. Burke Hay wood, and was improving, I conclud ed to make a little experiment on one of the swollen wounds. Being near the outer corner of the eye, its swoll en condition interfered with my sight, and as I had learned from Chief Justice Pearson that ani appli cation of spirits " of" turpentine would soothe a 'boil I touched that protuberance wifti it. Im the morn ing I found thafclnatead of removing the swelling it nad increased consid trably. Q.n Dr. Haywood's arrival, he expressed surprise, and on being told what I .had done, he said, "You haVftfiiven yjourselferysipelas in that woundana if it gets Up into the large one above, it will be very diffi cult to save your life." His counte nance exhibited much anxiety and apprehension. I replied, "Doctor, I will see that it does not get up into that wound ; come back and see me in four hours." I sent for tobacco, covered the upper wound with it, and the forehead and temple between that and the lower wound, keeping the bandage carefully wet all the time. About midnight the Doctor returned, and on the bandage being removed, all the swelling had disap peared. Though I was confined for some weeks to my room, I had no swelling of the wounds afterwards My next attack of erysipelas was a much more formidable one. In the month of May, 1880, 1 tried to remove a frontal neuralgia, of which I will perhaps speak hereafter. Having suffered from it for a long time, and tried many remedies with no advan tage, I concluded to try an old fash ioaed blister of flies. I covered my forehead and temples with it. and after it had been on a few hours, feeling lonesome in my room, I put on a soft hat and walked about the streets in the si mshine. After the blister plaster had been on six or seven hours, I removed it, and was surprised to observe that it discharg ed but little, and had an unusually red appearance. I kept cabbage leaves on it during the night, but on next day it still had a reddish appear ancevwas somewhat swollen, and discharged less than blisters usually did. 'About 5 o'clock, I went down to WiDard's Hotel for dinner, and on being met by a friend to whom I spoke, he seemed surprised, and said, "I did not know you till you spoke: what is the matter with you?" I stat ed what I had been doing, went into the dining room and took dinner, as usual. Un coming out, 1 met an old friend, Dr. Hambleton, and spoke to him. He, with a look of astonish ment, said to me, "I did not know you till you spoke : what is the mat ter with you? I answered that had had a blister on my forehead, les, ne said, ana it has given you erysipealas." I was at once alarmed ; and on going to a looking-glass, was amazed at my appearance. My f aee looked like a large pumpkin. Though my nose is a prominent one, it could not be distinguished, as the cheeks were swollen so as to be even with it : while only the central portions of my eyes could be seen, Qwing to the swelling around the n. Kealizing the danger, I secured a piece of tobacco at the cigar stand, and went into Milburn's drug store to get some cloth for bandages. On calling for it the proprietor --said with astonish ment, "Whatis the matter? I did not know you till you spoke." I stat ed it to him, and he answered, "You had better see a doctor ; you don't know how you look." After reach ing my room, as soon as I could wet the tobacco, I placed it over mv fore head, temples, eyes, cheeks and nose, barely leaving breathing space for the nostrils'. Covering it, as usual, with four thicknesses of cotton cloth. wrapping a bandage over all, I would put my lace into a bowl of water ev ery ten or ntteen minutes, so as to keep bandage thoroughly wet. After about four hours had elapsed, I raised the bandage, and was gratified to see tnat tne outlines 01 my nose were visible, the eyes enlarged, and my cheeks much less full. I continued the application, however, till morn ing, and had the satisfaction of seeing mac 1 was reiievea. several gentle men wno naa seen me tne evening ueiore, came m ana expressed sur prise at my rapid recovery. I re member that Dr. Hambleton said. "No doctor could have cured you in At 1 . M mree weeKS. T , 1 1 i 1 - a nave neara 01 a numDer or cases where erysipelas has been cured by persons whose attention I had called to the use of tobacco. I also, last summer, when m New York, by ap plying large poultices of tobacco to my hip, cured myself of a terrible at tack of sciatica, "which had been greatly aggravated by the treatment ,01 1 wo pnysicians. One evening, in Washington. found two of my friends sitting with their boots off. They both were suf fering from bunions of lone standing. I advised the use of tobacco, and they immediately sent for it and applied it. Application for a single night made a permanent cure, as they hav assured me, though two or three years ISffe elapsed. About two vears ago one of the NerthsCarolma mem bers of Congress, on my; suggestion, relieved himself in the same manner, and says there has been no return of the soreness. Al X 1 Ksurua uu me ices can oe cured in like manner. A Senator told me withitf a few weeks that ;he believed he bad saved his life last, year by ap plying tobacco as I had previously Mvisea hinfas toitsuse. He stated tnattrom imprudence ihdiet and over-exertion, he had brought on terrible attack. The pain on the lunri yni b 01 ins siae ana oaCK was almost intoleraole. After beine . .3 1 a , . . . O uearcu uy two pnysicians two days ana nigtits, with no atlvant age, the pain so increased that it seemed im possible for him to live under it. Re 4aembering,what Ihad told him as to. tobacco, he applied a quantity of it I refused.: Though the eye was not Tery painful, I; kept the tobacco oa ah lwi ,niu greater pare 01 tea day . ; Thi next,"1iay when he saw it,1 he- said- iou win not lose your eye, but it will always be disfigured."

U galled at.the office of my 3 had nave? seea such a cure. Being in the city a .few months after this, I called to see my friends One of them said to me, "I believe I saved a boy's eye with your tobacco. He had been hit in it with a chip and when I got to him, it was so much inflamed that 1 1 .thought he would" lose it-, but I put on the tobacco, and next morning I found the inflamma? taon gone, and the eye soon becam B S EV ER TjJDY, MAY 6, well " The other physician said, "I did a better thing than that. An elderly gentleman, somewhat intoxi cated, was thrown out of his carriage in Central Park, and badly bruised. When I got to his house, I never saw any one so frightened as was his his young wife, with his groaning and cursing. I wrapped up his wounds with tobacco, and he fell asleep, and was well in the morning !" Some years ago, on the streets ot Asheville, N. C, I met a prominent lawyer of the town. His eyes were fiery red and much swollen, and fie said "My eyes are very sore, and I am hunting a doctor where is Dr. Williams' office ?" I advised him to try tobacco on them. After hearing my statement as to its advantages. he said, "iwiutryit," ana steppea into a store, procured a piece of to bacco, and went home. On the next day, I met him on the street, and his eyes were well and clear. He told me that he had applied itas I direct ed, and kept it on during the night, and in the morning found his. eyes entirely relieved. He has since told me that he had recommenaea it to several persons for sores, and that they had all been relieved. At a' point in North Carolina, where red sore eyes were an epidemic, I recommend it to two young ladies suffering from it, who 6iept with tobacco- on their eyes, and in the morning found them well. In several other cases where I knew it to be tried for in flammations of the eye, it has been used invariably with success. About a dozen years ago, being in this city in the month of March, my throat became extrsmely sore. Not apprehending danger, I continued to move about in the raw weather, my throat getting worse all the while. Bf ing anxio js to go home about sun set, 1 went in an omnious to tne ooat that went down the river to Acquia Creek. After I had gotton on board, I found that my throat was alarm ingly worse. I was, from the swell ing, so bad that I could not swallow, and the air-passage was so closed that I found it difficult for me to breathe. Remembering how suddenly the Hon. Preston S. Brooks had been choked to death, I regretted much that I had attempted to travel then. As, how ever, the boat was starting. I could not get eff in time to return to the city. I thought tobacco would be my only chance for safety ; and after a search, I obtained some from one of the colored hands on the boat, got it on my throat, and by keeping a wet towel on it for the three hours that were spent on the boat, by the time I reached Acquia Creek the swelling was subdued, and I travelled home on the railroad witnout mcon-- venience. Some years since I called at the Arlington Hotel to see a couple of ladies from New York. One of them came down and stated that her friend had been suffering for several days with a very sore throat, and was undergoing medical treatment from a prominent physician of the city. I walked immediately to the cigar stand, got a piece of tobacco, gave it to her, and explained how it was to be used. On the next day I called, and she informed me that the tobacco had been applied as I direct ed, and that her friend was so well, that for the first time m many days she had come down to the breakfast table. Some years after this occur rence, I saw the lady who had been ill, and she stated that after the to bacco was applied her throat became easy, she slept well, and m the morn mg found the soreness and swelling entirely gone. wet to his side and bacfc, and in a half hour the pain ceased, his svstem was relaxed, and he immediately re covered. There is another class of cases that ought to be referred to ; but as my paper is getting rather too long, J will reserve them to a future occas ion. I must, however, .consider for a moment such objections as have been presented to me. A lady said she put tobacco on her child's sore throat, that it went to sleep, but when it woke in the morning, though its throat was well, it was very nau seated. Had this tobacco, however been removed after being on two or three hours, there would not have been nausea. A physician told me that he had seen a child whose stomach and sides had been covered with tobacco, and it was suffering greatly from nausea. This, too, was an instance of an over dose of the remedy. The tobacco. however, can easily be removed when symptoms ot nausea are perceived, Dut wnen a aoctor nas-got an over dose into the stomach, it cannot read ily be removed. When the wet tobacco is applied, the first effect is stimulating. In twenty or thirty minutes, however, the sedative effect is perceived. When it is placed on the eyelids, as some of the juice gets into the eye, there is usually an itching sensation and little pain ; but in a few minutes this passes off, and there is no more feel ing than if a wet cloth were applied Most persons sleep under the influ ence, but some do not. Tobacco, though the most powerful sedative to the blood circulatien is a rerve tonic. While most persons sleep un- aer tne innuence oi morpmne, some do not. Tobacco, like morphine, keeps me awake, though they both diminish pain. If the tobacco be ap plied only to the affected parts, no nausea will be felt until . the inflam mation has been subdued. When a light nausea begins to be perceived, it may be assumed that the inflam mation has been subdued ; and in-, a few minutes after the bandage has been removed, the nausea ceases to be felt. Generally after about tw6 burs application, the sedative effect is attained; but in obstinate cases a much tongertime may be required. Something tught to be stated as to the kind of tobacco to be used. For merly, because the manufactured to bacco was more readily found, I gen erally used that, as after a piece had been kept in- water for twenty or thirty minutes, it would become soft enough to allow the leaves to be separated. About a year ago, how ever, I made a discovery which it is important should be known; not 6nly to invalids, but also to tobacco chew ers. I obtained at a cigar store a piece of manufactured tobacco, but after applying it I found that instead of, being a sedative, the effect was irritating, even after it had been kept on the skin for several hours. I was satisfied that the tobacco, which was of, the kind sold for the highest price, must have something irritating mixed, trith, it. i Fortunately that very evening I found Mr. Oooner. a revenue collector of North Carolina, wrViv VinA . 1 "tw. lui maujr y eaiu LH.t;ii a man ufacturer of tobacco. He informed me that it was a practice to flavor the highest priced kinds ol tobacco with certain drugs. I think he men tioned Tonqua bean, Wintergreen, and some other things. He told me (that he knew these drugs were pois onous, because of what occurred at a .tobadep factory about two miles dis tant from his own.

Do Net Forget That when any article by its own merits has acquired public confidence and patronage, it is at once imitated, and the greater the sale of the genu ine article, the more the imitations. Take, for instance, the host of so called porous plasters ; every one of them is endeavoring to trade on the reputation of AllcGck's Porous Phster. The only safe way for purchasers is to insist on having the genuine ar ticle, and not allow themselves to be swindled by having plasters said to be "just as good," or "containing su perior ingredients," imposed upon them. These are only tricks to sell inferior goods that no more compare with Allcock's Porous Plaster than copper does with gold.
