chronic diseases, twice a day, viz. in
the morning, bef -re rising from bed,
and in the evcn'n., before going to it,
or only once bef.re going to bed, to the
whole' surface of the body. It acts in
the following manner : It evcites a sud
den and a little disigreeablc shivering
throughotttthe body, which is very soon
succeeded by the sensation of a benign
and agreeable warmth and by univer
sal, sometimes very copious sweats.
The person who is thus washed finds
himself soon very' easy, and bis pulse
is regulated, sometimes after two hours,
two or three days, and sometimes a lit
tle liter. The trashing may be appli
ed without any danger, even if , the bo
dy be in a state of perspiration.
According to my theory, these mir
acles are produced p tly by the oxy
genate substance which is extracted by
the counter action of the skin from the
vinegar and then attached to the cuta
neous nerves partly by the antagonism
(polarity) which exists between the
nerves of the skin and those of the in
ternal organs.
If this remedy succeeds in saving
thr lives of those who are attacked by
th vellow fever, and the eyes of those
who are in dinger of losing their sight

think mvsclf sufficiently rew.irded and
really and infinitely happy. With re
grd to the interior treatment I anj us
ed to join to this remedy, I must re
mark, that ordinarily I prescribe the
opir't of volatile amnvmiaral salt, and at
tin-end of the disease I get sometimes
a decoction of the wood of guiacum,
with sme drops of the liquor anodyne
of Hodman to be drunk, lint this re
medy nj ide its astonishing rJTects even
when other stimulant medicines were
internally given. One caution is still
to he reflected upon. as this remedy
ases and comforts the sick so very
quickly, they do not think that they
have been in an imminent danger of
life they rise too soon and st relapse

ed to lav ths letter, kc, on the uhle.
Mr. C.MPiir.LL.rr()hio,suggestedthat
if the geiiiieiiuit from Maryland were
somewhat better ruainted with the ub
jert invtilved in thit iwpiirT, he weuld not
ink- o liht of It. He did not know
sv ht her the tjentlemm htl been favored
svi'h a view of a certain document, of the
las sesiion, uhirh tmht lo have been
published, but of which a part wos not
published ,ml which seemed to demand
t.n inquiry by the House. If he had seen
it. he was persuaded the Re m'eman would
not desiie to present the inquiry, Uc.
Upon thii statement, Mr. I.ittlr, not
wM.ini; to prevent any inquirv whii h any
member of the House should think nc-
icessary-, wididiew in -tion to lay iho
, Mr. Aitciitn, .f Virginia, culled for
the reading of the p.mer unnexcd to the
letter (wlii;h had not previously been
lead.)
M. W incur, of Maryland, said, after
iHa statement which hd been made, he
was clearly for investigating ht matter,
and exposing every thing connected with
it to the face of day, without regard to
persons, affect whom it may. He there
fore coidially concurred in the appoint
ment of the committee, as proposed.
Mr. .Mitchell, of South Carolina, s:iid
he honed the gentleman from Massachu
setts would withdraw his motion, and that
ihc precious time of the House would not
be suffered to be occupied with a matter
of this description. We are not so cnsi -
tive ourselves, said Mr. M. in regard to the
reputation of the members of this House ;
when our conduct is assailed in the news
papers, wc do not call for the authors, or
appoint committees to inquire into the
truth of the imputations against us. lie
was verv certain, he said, that Gales and
Seaton had conducted themsilves proper
ly in the discharge of their duties, and
were deserving of the confidence of this
House. But, if any attack was made up
on their characters bv others, why nt let
them resort to the Courts of Justice r .
Are we, he said, going to investigate news
paper slanders ? To convert ourselves in
to an inquest on characters? It is unbe
coming in us to appoint a committee
merely on the foundation of a newspaper
paragraph. It would be otherwise if any
charge were presented by a member
against these gentlemen. As it was, he
hoped the resolution, kc. would be suffer
ed to lie on the table.
Mr. f amfhf.l L, of Ohio, stated, that,
if there weu nothing but newspaper au
thority to act upon, the course recommen
ded bv the gen' km.) frm South-Carolina
was one which be tdiould be strongly
inclined to f'ol!ov. Hut Iu- stated, thai
the perusal of tin publication in the news
paper had indure;! him to go to the Clerk's
Oflicc, to sec the doruutcni referred to in
that publication. It seemed, upon tin
face of it, that thin Hou-vC has been im
posed upon eithe r bv the pi inters or some
other officer of the- government. He did
not undertake to declare where the fault
lav, but the censure rcstid somewhere,
and it oui;hl o be fixed at 'he pioper
place. I he bt'er in question, he said,
was one from W. II. I)i kinson. Cashiet
of the Hank of Stcubenvillc. In the oii
Kinal of this letter was one paragraph in
closed wiihin brackets, anil a cross nude
over it with a pencil, which perhaps ban
been done as a notice to the p: inter th it
that part was not to be published. That
paragraph was one whit h ought not to
h..ve been suppressed, as it had luen
Mr. C. sid he presumed that when
Member niaes a statement of this kin
in his dare, it is due even to him that .
committee should be raised lo inquiie in
to the nutter. The marks referred i
might perhaps have been inadvertently
made : they might, forexample.have beei
made by the person who first read the Ic'
ter, and taken bv the printers for a mt ik
of omission. The thing, ought, howev
er, to be investigated. When a Depart
nicnt is called on for information, and, in
communicating it, a part of a letter -suppt
eased, or it i in anv other wav sup
pressed, it U treating the House in a verv
shameful manner. It was due loall who
could be suspected of this suppression,
tha' it should be inquired into. Let those
who arc innocent appear so. and those
w ho re guilty be t xposcd. It is our l.i
ty, as nunihcts, to see that surh frauds c."
not go unpunished. Suppose tl.t am

5c - ltisHue.undercvery view, to Messrs.
tiulcs kSnion and to the Head of the
treasury Department, that n imiuiiv
should take pl.icr .tito this matter.
Mr. Wuiciit intimated bis opinion
that it was very improper to go into an in
ustigation of the subject itself on a nitre
question, whether the House would in
quire into it or not. He. hoped, uficr what
had passed, that a large committee would
be raised to inquire into the mat'ir.
Mr. Mcl.svr", of Deltwaie, thought
that where anv impu ation wns seriously
made on any officer of this House, it ought
to be investigated. He was, therefore, in
favor of the resolution not because he
iK-lieved there had been anv f ttlt on the
part of the prirters to this Houie, or be
cause he believed there had been any l-uli
anv where. He wished a full inquiry,
and to have a'l the? circumstances i onnec
ted with this matter placed be fine the
House. He had never heard d tt.r fact
stated by the gentleman from Ohio, nor
even seen the publication in question, be

original paper, titdess it were that the
House should he in possession if all the
facts connected witrthe subject, though
it might not have been proper thai every
particular of it should be spread before
the publi;-.
Mr. Aacnm, of irgima, expressed
hi surmize Hut the rrentleman from S
Carolina should have expressed his entire
confidence in the punters, and yet have
unnoted the nronoscd inquiry. Here is
the grave assertion of one of the most
respectable members of the House, that
the House has been imposed upon by
them or by somebody else : Messrs. Gales
: k Seaton are at present Printers to this
House, and it is probable will conic before
us at the close of this session, and ask a
: re-election to that trust. Mr. v asked
, the gentleman from South Carolina, and
j any other gentleman, if this nutter was
not satisfactoiily cleared up, whether he
would give his vote foi them : I he gen
tleman from South-Carolina professed to
be the fiiendof the Printers, and yet his
course would be such as to prevent any
man from conscientiously giving them a
vote for re election. Mr. A. said he should
he extremely reluctant to suppose Messrs.
(des 8c Seaton really culpable, us was
imputed to them; but, when a charge to
lliid effect was formally made against
therrt, standing on the high credit of one
of the members of this House, what could
he do ? It was due to the parties to the
gravity of the charge to the respectable
source frem whence i. nsw emanates, be
ing one of the members of this House,
that ii n inquiry should take place.
Mr. Mitch ti.L, of S. C. said he had
considered this charge merely as brought
by an editor of a newspaper against Gales
h Seaton, when he opposed the appoint
ment of a committee on the subject. He
did not suppose it was supported by any
member of this Heuse. So long as it
rested merely on the assertion, perhaps
unfounded assertion, of a newspaper, he
was opposed to the examination of it
Hut he had too much respect for the mem
bers of this House, to resist an inquiry
into a charge supported by the authority
of anv one of them ; and therefore with
diew his opposition to the proposed ref
erence. Mr. Ingham called for the reading of
the document referred lo in debate, to
shew the effort of the .omission of. the
part of it wh'uh had not been printed-
Mr. Wright repeated that the charge
now presented was one of an aggravated
character against the servants of this
House, and it was due to them and to the
House thai it should be inquired ii to.
Mr. Dwigiit exprcsed the same senti
merit in justification and support of his
notion.
Some conversation look place as to the
nint whether the letter whii h had been
ad was the original, taken from the files
f the House, and it turned out to be so.
Mi. higiit again protested against
1 istituting a partial investigation into the
merits of this nutter, on a question whe
her it outfit to be inquired into. I,
vould Le time enough to investigate it.
he said, when the whole matter was be

The question was then taken on Mr.

I have authorized the receivers of public

which we are menaced, will not take
