PHENOMENA.
in the year1856, there will be two Eclipses of the Sun, and two
the Moon: of these, will be visible in Ceylon:
tPartial Eclipse of the Moon, October 13th,

First contact with the Shadow at Colombo, will he at 14h. 41m. (2h.
41m. A.M. of the 14th, Civil time.)
Last contact with the Shadow will be at 5h, em., nearly sunrise of
the 14th, Civil time.
COLOMBO TIME.
Ceylon being so far towards the East or Sun-rising, it is already mid-day
here when it is morning in England. The day here is farther advanced
than at Greenwich 5 hours 19 minutes and 33 seconds, which must therefore be added to the time in England to give the time here.
The quantities given under the head "Sun's Declination" are to the
nearest minute, and those under "Equation of Time" to the nearest
second. By these data, with the use of a pocket sextant, the time may
be readily obtained to within four seconds. Those whose objects require
greater accuracy will most probably be provided with a Nautical Almanac.

account of the Ca'Unbar.

The JULIAN or commoN CIVIL YEAR* is that which is employed in chronology. This
is in effect a solar year, commonly containing a certain number of whole days, the
odd hours and minutes being set aside to render the computation of time in the common
concerns of life more easy, and consists of 365 days or lamonths, 1 day ; or 52 week,
I day, for three years together ; but every fourth year a day (or in the four years
6 hours for each year) being added to February, it then contains 366 days ; this is
called bissextile or leap year, consequently the mean Julian year, will be 365 days
6 hours.
The MEAN SOLAR, ASTRONOMICAL, TROPICAL, NATURAL, Or EQUINOCTIAL YEAR is the
true standard of time, and is the period of time in which the earth perform,
revolution about the sun, or passes from the first point of Aries to the same. firs
point of Aries again; and has been assumed, according to Bessel (see Connaissance
des Temps, 1831, Additions, p. 154.), equal to 366242213 mean solar days--=3654,
5/s. 4/3m. 47.6352s.
Although the Julian method of intercalation is perhaps the most convenient that
could be adopted ; yet, as the science of astronomy advanced the length of the
astronomical year was found to be shorter than the Julian correction supposes b
I lea. 12.3648s., it could not, without correction, very long answer the purpose lo
which it was devised, namely, that of preserving always the same interval of tim
between the commencement of the year and the equinox, and thus would a degre
of confusion be introduced into the relative divisions of the year, and be pro
ductive of great inconvenience: at length it was discovered that an error of one da
Id ; r)
too much would take place in 129 years (for as 1 I et. 12 3648s : I year
but in the time of Cressr the length of the year was an astronomical element
very well determined. In the course of a few centuries, however, the equinox s
sibly retrograded towards the beginning of the year in consequence of the preces:
of the equinoxes. When the Julian calendar was introduced, the equinox fell on
25th of March ; at the time of the Council of Nice, which was held Artno Doe
325, it fell on the 21st of March. This imperfection of the calendar was noti
as early as the time of the Venerable Bede ; but the reformation of it did
take place till many centuries after Petrus ab Alliaco and emu, two learned Ca
nabs, not only pointed out these imperfections to the Councils of Constance
Lateran, but suggested the means for its correction ; and in A. D. 1474,
Sixtus the I rth engaged Regiomontanus, an eminent mathematician, in this 1
of reform, though from the circumstance of the death of Regiomontanus the r
ject was not carried into effect. And when the reformation was made, in
the equinox had retrograded to the 1 1 th of March ; therefore, in order to m
the calendar more correct, Pope Gregory the XI Ilth invited C/arrlls and Ciacon
the most celebrated astronomers and mathematicians of the age, with others,
superintend the reconstruction of the calendar : they having found that by
introduction of the bissextile days, a difference had arisen of ten days bets
the calendar and actual time, owing to the odd minutes and seconds which
bissextile year occasioned the calendar to exceed the true period of the s
progress, the Pope then issued a brief, in the month of March 1582, in wl
he abolished the use of the ancient calendar. And in order to restore the co
mencement of the year to the same place in the seasons that it had occin
at the time of the Council of Nice, Gregory directed the day following the f
of St. Francis, that is to say, the 5th of October, to be reckoned the I Ott
that month. By this regulation the vernal ectitnox, which now happened on
11th of March, was restored to the 21st. This last amendment of the cater
having taken place under the direction of Pope Gregory Me XI I Ith, was, out
respect to him, called the Gregorian or New Style, in opposition to the Jo
Or Old Style, and wallas been adopted by almost every Christian nation.
Gregorian Style was immediately acceded to by all those parts of Europe wl
were under the papal authority, but the Protestants adhered to the Julian S
with obstinate pertinacity ; and the Protestants of Germany have the credit
having first rectified such inconsistency, by throwing eleven days out of I
calendar in 1706 ; while it is worthy of remark, that the Russians, regardles
The first Julian year commenced with rho first of January of the 46th before the birth of C
and 78 from the foundation of the city of Roam.

37
propriety, still adhere to the Julian style, and therefore, by another centurial leapyear having occurred, viz. in the year 1800, they now differ from us 12 days in
their date of time. Now as the error of the Julian intercalation was found to
amount to three days in 400 years, he ordered intercalations to be omitted on all
the centenary years, excepting those which are multiples of 400. According to the
Gregorian rule of intercalation, therefore, to know when it is bissealile or leap
year, divide the year by 4, and the remainder spews how long it is after leap
year ; if nothing remains it is leap year, excepting the centurial years, which are
only leap years when divisible by 4 after suppressing the two zeros. Thus 1600
and 2000 are leap years, because 16 and 20 are divisible by 4 ; but 1700, 1800,
and 1900 are common years, and so on, because 17, 18, and 19 are not divisible
by 4, but these would have been leap years by the Julian calendar. As the
Gregorian method of intercalation has been adopted in all Christian countries,
Russia excepted, it becomes interesting to examine with what degree of accuracy
it reconciles the civil with the solar year ; therefore the only thing in the correction of the calendar that requires a high degree of mathematical science is the
determination of the length of the astronomical year ; yet this has never been perfectly
ascertained. Ilad the mean astronomical year been more accurately determined
in the time of Julius Ctesar, the Julian correction would, probably, have superseded
the necessity of the Gregorian. Although the Gregorian calendar is far preferable to
the Julian, yet it is not without its defects (perhaps, as Tycho Brahe and Cassini imagine, it is impossible ever to bring the calendar to a perfect justness). According to
the latest determinations of modern astronomy, the mean solar year consists of
365 d. 5 h. 48 m. 47.6362 s., or 365'242218 d. Now the Gregorian rule gives 97
intercalations in 400 years ; 400 years therefore contain 363 x 400 +97=146097
days, and consequently one year contains 365'2425 days or 365d. 5A. 49m. 12s.
This exceeds the true solar year by 24'3648 seconds, which amount to a day in
5346 years ; for as 2-1'3618 a. : 1 gear : I d. a'. It is perh4s unnecessary to
make any formal provision against an error which can only happen after so long
a period of time; but as 11546 differs little from 4000, it has been proposed to
correct the Gregorian rule by making the year 4000 and all its multiples common
years. With this correction the rule of intercalation is as follows :Every year,
the number of which is divisible by 4, is a leap year, excepting the last year of
each century, which is a leap year only when the number of the century is
divisible by 4 ; but 4000, and its multiples, 8000, 12000, 16000, &c., are common
years. Thus the uniformity of the intercalation by continuing to depend on the
number 4, is preserved ; and by adopting the last correction the commencement
would not vary more than a day from its present place in 31250 years. For as
the Gregorian intercalation gives 97 days in 400 years, consequently in 4000 years
970 days would be intercalated ; but one day is now omitted at the end of every
4000 years, therefore only 969 days are intercalated, consequently the civil year
will be 36.1 d. -F =365 24225 d 363 d. Sh. 48m. 50.4 s. ; but this exceeds the
mean solar year by 2.7648 seconds. and it would require 31250 years to make
the beginning of the civil and tropical year be a day apart, for as 2'7684 s. : 1
year : I d. : x.
From the year 1582 to 1700 the difference between the old and new style continued to be ten days; but 1700 being a leap year in the Julian calendar, and
a common year in the Gregorian, the difference of the styles during the eighteenth
century was 11 days. The year 1800 was also common in the new calendar, and
consequently the difference in the present century is twelve days, and so will contiaue till the year 1900, and from 1900 to 2100 will be thirteen days, and at
every centesimal year, which is not exactly divisible by 4, will be an increase of
one day more, excepting 4000 and its multiples. In Great Britain the alteration from
the old to the new style ufas for a long time successfully opposed by popular
prejudice. but the inconvenience had keen so generally felt in matters of history
and chronology, that at length, in 1751, an Act of Parliament was passed fur
the adoption of the new style in the year following, in all public and legal transactions under the crown. The difference of the two styles, which then amounted
to eleven days, was removed by ordering the day following the 2nd of September
of the year 1752 to be accounted the 14th of that month, whereby that month
consisted of only nineteen days : and in order to preserve uniformity in future the
Gregorian rule of intercalation respecting the secular years was adopted.
The SIDEREAL or ASTRAL YEAR is the time elapsed from the sun's quitting a
particular fixed star to its return to the same fixed star again, and it exceeds the solar
year by 20 na. 199561 s., making the sidereal year 365 d. 6 h. 9m. 7'5913 s.; this
difference is called the precession or retrograde motion of the equinoxes, by which

the fixed stars gain about .501 seconds in right ascension every year ; consequently
the length of a sidereal year can then be determined by no method more obvious or more correct than this:

The ANOMALISTIC YEAR 4s the interval whch is occupied by the sun in passing
from apogee to apogee. or from perigee to perigee ; it is greater than the sidereal
year by the time required to describe the annual progres-ion of the apogee : now
the progression of the apogee (its increase of longitude) being 11.8 seconds, therefore the anomalistic year is complete when the sun has described 360 deg. 1.1 m. 118. a.
Hence to find the length of an anomalistic year
As 360 deg. : 363 4. 6 h. 9 m. 7-3913 a. : : 360 deg. 0711.11.8 s. ; 365 d. 6 h. 13 in.
54'9263 s.
Therefore the anomalistic year is longer than the sidereal by 4 nt. 47.335 s., and
longer than the equinovial by 2.5 rn. 7-2911 a.
apparent or true time is that which is denoted by the sun-dial, from the apparent
motion of the sun, and differs several minutes in certain parts of the ecliptic from
the mean time, or that shewn by the clock. The diftrence is called the equation of time and is set down in the almanac in order to ascertain the true time.
This irregularity is produced by two principal causes, viz. the obliquity 04 the
ecliptic to the equator, and the eccentricity of the earth's orbit, and by the
small deviations from elliptical motion produced by the moon end planets.
A lunar month or synodic revolution of the moon is the time between two consecutive conjunctions of the moon, called the change or new moon. This period varies
considerably, in consequence of the variation of the eccentricity of the moon's orbir.
A mean lunation is. according to Laplace, 294. 12 h. 44 in. 2.8032 s., and the
excess in each year is 1 I days. from which the epact or moon's age at the commencement of ad! year may be found ; and this is used for finding the moon's
age at any time in the year.
A day is that portion of time in which the earth makes one complete revolution on its axis, and is measured by the interval between two successive transits of any fixed star over the same meridian. The civil day is reckoned from
one midnight to another, being divided into two periods of hours counted from
one to twelve, twice over, among the ancient Egyptians and Romans, with modern
English, Dutch, Germans, Spaniards, and Portuguese ; but in astronomical calculations, the day is always supposed to begin at noon, and to end ut the noon of the
following day, the hours being reckoned up to 24. Therefore, if civil time be P.M.
it agrees with astronomical time ; but if the civil time is A. M., add 12 hours to it,
and the suns will be the corresponding astronomical time of the preceding day.
The Hebrew year is reckoned from the Creation, in lunar years consisting of
12 lunar months of 29, days each and From new moon to new moon. The
Jewish year in general contains 854 days.
The idahomedan era commences with the introduction of the Maliomedan religion by Mehemet. Their year, like that of the Jews, consists generally of 354
days.
The Chinese divide the night and day into twelve equal parts, beginning their
reckoning from midnight. Hence their hours are double the length of ours.
The common Chinese year consists of twelve lunar months and their intercalary
year has thirteen. Their months have no subdivision, that is, they have no weeks,
Their common way of dating is by the day of the month and the year of the
reigning Emperor. As for example, AN of the sixth moon in the 12th year of
the Kia -King.
The moon with which their year commences, is that which falls nearest to the
fifteenth degree of Aquarius, corresponding to the 3d or 4th of February.
The Chinese have no particular days for religious worship. Their great festival
is the first of the year, on which day they shut up their shops, dress in their best
clothes, and pay visits.

Das- of Clacesicision, or New YEAR'S DAY.This day was kept as a festival
by the Greeks in celebration of the completion of the Sun's annual course, and by the
Romans in honor of their god Janus. The Day of Circumcision was instituted
in the Christian Church A. D. 487, and introduced into the English Lie.rgy in 15511
in commemoration of the Circumcision of our Lord Jesus Christ, eight days alter
his Nativity.
EPIPHANY, TWELPTH-DAY, Or OLD CHRISTMAS Day,is kept as a festival throughout
Christendom in commemoration of the manifestation of the Lord Jesus Christ
upon earth. Antiently it was celebrated as the Feast of the Nativity during twelve
days, namely, from Christmas unto the 12th day onwards. The first and last of these
days were denominated the greater and lesser Epiphany. The first, on account of
the Lord Jesus having on that day assumed the human form ; and the second, on
account of the appearance of the star which conducted the Wise men from the East
to Bethlehem, there to worship the infant Saviour.
CANDLEMAS DAY, PURIFICATION of the VIRGIN ZVI A RY,W8.9 antiently called the day
of Christ's Presentation ; and is still kept as a solemn festival in memorial of the
humiliation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, who whilst submitting to the Law that
enjoined personal purification after childbirth, presented the infant Jesus in the
Temple.
SEPTUAGESIMA, SPXAGESIMA, QUINQUAGESIMA, and QUADRAGESIMA SUNDAYS, are so
called to signify in even and round numbers, the seventieth, sixtieth, fiftieth, and
fortieth day before Easter.
SHROVE TUESDAY.This day, preceding the first day of Lent, is so called from the
Saxon word Shrive, to confess ; because in antient times, on this day, every person
in England was obliged to confess to his own parish priest in his own parish
church.
Asa WEDNESDAY, THE FIRST DAY or LENT.Originally SO called from the custom
that prevailed of penitents, when admitted to the Church to express humiliation on
accountof their sins, appearind clothed in sackcloth, and having Ashes sprinkled
on their heads.
LENT, signifies spring. The forty days before Easter, therefore, being observed by
Christians as days of humiliation, fasting and prayer, were called the Spring, or
Lenten Fast.
Lally DAY,is celebrated throughout the Christian world under the title of The
Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, or the day on which Almighty God sent the
Angel Gabriel to announce to her the fulfilment in her person of the prophecies
that foretelling the wondrous scheme of salvation, declared a Virgin should conceive
and bear a Sou, &c.(See Gen. iii. 15 : Is. vii. 14 ; ix. 6: Mic. v. 2, &c.)Lady day
is also in civil calculation, the 1st of the four quarter-days, as they are called, of the
year.
Pays SUNGAY.The Sunday before Easter, commemorated throughout the Christian
Church, as the anniversary of our Saviour's last entry into Jerusalem, when the
people took branches of Palm, and went forth to meet him and cried, Hosanna:
blessed is the King of Israel, who cometh in the name of the Lord. This day is
also called Passion Sunday, as the first day of the Passion week.
Goon Vkillaar, called also HOLY FRIDAY; is the day which from the earliest period
in the Christian Church has ever been kept in solemn awful remembrance of the
Crucifixion of our blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
EASTER SUNDAY.The day on which the Lord Christ rose triumphant from the grave ;
and since then ever kept throughout all Christendom as a Great Day, a Feast of
Feasts; and a Sunday of Ay. In secular transactions it is the moat important of all
the moveable feasts, as the day on which it falls regulates all the rest.
ROGATION SUNDAY,the fifth Sunday after Easter, takes its name from the Latin
word rogare, to beseech; the early Christians having appointed extraordinary prayers
and supplications on the Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday succeeding it.
BOLT TEWRIIDAY OR ASCENSION Dar, is the day on which the Church celebrates the
Ascension of our Lord into heaven.
WHIT SUNDAY, oti Pesrecosr.This day is held by the Christian Church as a
solemn festival, in commemoration of the descent of the Holy Ghost upon the
Apostles on the day of Pentecost. On this day in early times converts to Christianity were most usually admitted to the Church by Baptism ; they were baptised
clothed in white ; hence it became termed White Sunday, from which in later
times was derived the term Whit Sunday.

to the festival of Christmas. On this season we are not only called upon to
contemplate the inestimable blessings conferred on mankind by the coming of our
Lord to "take away the sin of the world," but also to prepare for that second
coming, when He will appear to "judge the world in righteousness."

and precious stones {except diamonds.)
For scientific putposes the grain only is used ; and sets of weights are constructed
in decimal progressions from 1O,100 grains downwards to 1-100 of a grain.
By comparing the number of grains in the Avoirdupois and Troy pound and
ounce respectively, it appears that the Troy pound is less than the Avoirdupois
in the proportion of 14 to 17 nearly ; but the Troy ounce is greater than the
!Avoirdupois, in the proportion of 72 to 79 nearly.
The carat used for weighing diamonds, is 3 1-6 grains. The term, however, when
used to express the fineness of gold, has a relative meaning only. Every mass
of alloyed gold is supposed to be divided into 24 equal parts ; thus the standard
or coin is 22 carats fine, that is-, it consists of 22 parts of pure gold, and 2 parts
of alloy. What is called the new standard, used for watch-cases, &c., is 18 carats

VARIATIONS OF TEMPERATURE CORRESPONDING TO

ALTITUDE.
As we ascend, the air becomes thin or rare, and as it becomes rare it also
bws cold. No fact is better established than this, though, the rate of this
ling of the air as we ascend in it does not appear to he uniform, but to vary
:different countries and even in the same country at different seasons. Were
_to go by local data we might calculate it thus. The annual temperature of
Cdombo is probably about 80 5 ; that of Kandy is altit 74 5 ; and that of
; giving a fall of one
nwera Ellia at an elevation of 6,210 ft : is about
tree for every 280 ft: in the former case, and for every 295 ft. in the latter ;
tOults which accord very well with observations made elsewhere, and particularly
ith those which may be deduced from the other sanataria of India,

1. In assigning superannuation or retiring allowances according to the scales

tilled in the above Minutes, the increased rates of allowance authorised by
scales after periods of five years' service shall not take effect immediately a
the completion of each period ; but the authorised rate shall be apportioned
cording as the service might exceed such completion and approach the next
riod of increase. Thus, for example, upon a Salary of 120 per arm=
maximum allowance authorised by the Minutes alter a service of twenty and

and in the same ratio with reference to longer or shorter service.
2. Should the term of service not warrant the assignment of an annual
allowance, a gratuity may be granted after the rate of one month's salary for
each year of service.
S. The apportioned rates above-mentioned, giving the maximum allowance for
the last year of each period to which the scales of the Minutes are adapted, are
hoverer only to be granted in cases of decidedly faithful and meritorious service;
bet where the testimony as to fidelity, diligence and merit, is in any respect defective, a deduction will be made horn the apportioned rate, either of one-fifth or
of greater or less amount ; or the grant of allowance will be altogether withheld,
where there has been obvious negligence, irregularity or misconduct.
4. But in eases of special merit, it will remain open to Her Majesty's Government to award the maximum allowance warranted by the scales of the Minutes to
the shortest terms of service, or to give such extraordinary recompense as they may
deem expedient.
5. The services in respect of which superannuations are granted, ought in all
eases to have been continuous, unless interrupted by reduction of office, or other
temporary suspension of employment, not arising from misconduct, or voluntary' resignation of the party.
6. In case of suspension of employment on reduction or abolition of office,
temporary allowances may be assigned according to time above rules ; on condition
however that the parties receiving the same will he liable to be recalled into
service, and with the understanding that they are to be re-employed as opportunit} may utter, in preference to new applicants for office.

Revised Regulations respecting the sale of Salt in
the Northern Province.
THE following revised Rules regarding the issue of Salt for exportation
from the Northern Province are published for general information.

Colombo, 31st January 1855.

W. C. GIBSON,
Actg. Col. Secy.
Tax Salt will be shipped by and at the expense of Government if desired.

The shipment of a cargo however cannot be guaranteed at any time out
of the regular season for shipment as herein strait and in respect to any
such shipment that may be made, the expenses actually incurred in respect
to it must be paid in addition to the stated price of the Salt when shipped
by the purchaser.
If desired, boats can be held in readiness from a fixed day to be named
by the purchaser, at an extra cost of ls. 4id. per boat per day. In the
absence of such arrangement, it will take from 1 to 3 days, according to
the size of the vessel, to collect the full number of boats required, though
shipment can commonly be commenced in all cases with a smaller number
of boats within 36 hours of arrival.
The Salt will be sold both at Jaffna and at Colombo. As regards sales
; at Jaffna, the persons in charge of the Stores at Tondemanar and Jaffna,
are authorised to attend at once to applications, and to make arrangements
for shipment, without the delay of reference to the Government Agent.
The sales at Colombo will be made as hitherto by the Colonial Secretary.
The quantity of Salt available will be published monthly or oftener as
alterations in the quantity available may render necessary.
No Salt can be secured to any party in anticipation of the quantity that
may become available.
Of the quantity that may be stated to be available, 500 Tons (when
there is that quantity) will be reserved at all times to be at the disposal of
the Colonial Secretary at Colombo. With reference therefore to any application that may be made at Jaffna when the stock on hand may not
exceed 500 Tons, it would be necessary to ascertain that it had not been
sold at Colombo, before such application could he complied with; and as
regards the purchase at Colombo of any quantity exceeding 500 Tons,
there would be no guarantee as to the excess above that quantity being
available on the arrival of the vessel.

NOTICE.
HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR having received from His
Grace the SECRETARY OF
following amended Regulations relative to the privileges in the acquisition of

Lands allowed to Military and Naval Officers purposing to settle in certain of the British
Colonies, has directed the same to be put fished for general information.
Colonial. Secretary's Office,
C. J. MACCARTHY,
Col. Seel]
Colombo, 25th August, 1853.
Information for the use of Military and Naval Officers proposing to settle in criroin
of the British Colonies.
1. Privileges in the acquisition of Land are at present allowed to Military and Naval
Officers in the Colonies of New South Wales, Victoria, Van Deimen's Land, South Australia, Western Australia, New Zealand, Ceylon, and the Cape of Good Hope. As, hou
ever, the controul of the Waste Lands of the Crown in New Zealand is vested in the
Legislature of that Colony, it must be distinctly understood that Her Majesty's Goy ernwent cannot guarantee the continuance of the following Regulations, but that they will
be liable to be altered or discontinued by the local Legislature ; and the same caution
will be applicable to any other of the Colonies named, in which the same controul may
hereafter be transferred to the local Legislature.
The same privileges are extended to Officers of the East India Company's Service in
Van Deimen's Land.
2. In the abovenamed Colonies, land is disposed of by sale only; but Officea
purchasing land, are allowed a remission of the purchase money, according to be
undermentioned scale.
Field Officers, of 25 years' service and upwards, in the whole 600
500
Field Officers, of 20 years' service and upwards, in the whole
STATE the
56] Rules
for the Sale of Crown Lands.
211
Field Officers, of 15 or less years' service, in the whole 400

Captains, of 20 years' service and upwards, in the whole 400
Captains, of 16 years' service or less, in the whole 300
Subalterns, of 20 years' service and upwardsfin the whole 300
Subalterns, of 7 years' service and upwards, in the whole 200
Subalterns, under 7 years' standing, are not entitled to any remission in the
purchase of Land.
Regimental Staff Officers, and Medical Officers of the !limy and Navy, are
allowed the benefit of this Rule.But Military Chaplains, Commissariat Officers, and
Officers of any of the Civil Departments of the Army; Pursers, Chaplains, Midshipmen,
Warrant Officers of every description, and Officers of any of the Civil Departments
of the Navy, are not allowed any privileges in respect of land. Although members
of these classes may have been admitted formerly, and under different circumstances.
they are now excluded. Mates in the Royal Navy rank with Ensigns in the Army
and Mates of three years' standing, with Lieutenants in the Army, and are entitled
respectively to corresponding privileges in the acquisition of lands.
3. In order to take advantage of this privilege, Officers of the Army and Navy on
full or half pay, should provide themselves with a Certificate from the Office of the
General Commanding-in-Chief, or of the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, or of
the Master General of the Ordnance, shewing that their settlement in a British Colony
has been sanctioned, and stating their rank and length of service. No document from
the Office of the Secretary of State is necessary.
4. This Certificate will nut on any account be issued more than once to the same
Officer, or to any Officer on half pay who shall for two years immediately preceding the
date of this Notice have resided in the Colony in which he seeks to make it available.
5. Gentlemen who have ceased to belong to Her Majesty's Service will not be
allowed advantages in the acquisition of Land. This rule, however, is not to affect Officers who, having obtained permission to settle in a British Colony, have quitted the
service fur the purpose of doing so. But, in such cases, it will be necessary that their
"Certificate of service and permission should bear the date of their retirement from the
service, and that, within one year from that date, but not otherwise, it should be presented to the Governor of one of the abovenamed Colonies, which will be sufficient
warrant for allowing the bearer the advantages to which his rank and length of service
may entitle him according to the above scale.
6. The object of the Regulations being to encourage the permanent settlement in
the abovenamed Colonies of Military and Naval Officers, and it being necessary to prevent those who have no intention of settling there from taking advantage of the privilege,
Officers will not, for the space of two years from the making out of their Certificates,
receive a Crown Grant for any Land purchased by such Certificates, but will, in the
mean time, receive a " Location Ticket." At the expiration of two years, the Officer,
on shewing to the satisfaction of the Governor that he is bona file a resident Settler in
the Colony, and has so resided continuously since receiving his " Location Ticket," will
be entitled to a Crown Grant in exchange for it. If, however, application should not be
made for the exchange of the "Location Ticket" within 12 months from the expiration
of the two years for which it is granted, it will be considered to have lapsed, and the
Land will be opened to sale or grant. In case of the Officers dying while holding a
"Location Ticket," the Land to which it refers will be transferred to his legal representative.
In case of such death occurring before the" Location Ticket" is obtained, the Governor
of the Colony is authorized to make the Certificate available in favour of the Child or
other nearest representative of the deceased Officer, as he may find advisable.
7. For the convenience of Officers, the following heads are subjoined of the
Rules for the sale of Land in the Australian Settlements :
M1 Lands are disposed of by sale alone, and must have been once at least exposed
to public auction.
The lowest upset price is not less than LI per acre ; but the Gdvernment has power
to raise the same by Proclamation, though not again to reduce it.
The Lands are distinguished into three different classes ; viz., Town Lots, Suburban
Lots, and Country Lots.
Upon Town and Suburban Lots, as well as upon a proportion not exceeding onetenth of the whole of the Country Lots offered for sale at any auction, the
as. Governor has the power of naming a higher than the general or lowest upset
price : these last to be designated " Special Country Lots."
Town and Suburban Lots are in no case disposed of except by public auction ; but
Country Lots, which have already been put up to public auction, and not sold, may be
disposed of afterwards by private contract at the upset price.
212
Steam Navigation to England, 4c. {PART IV
No Lands are sold by private contract, except for ready money. When sold by public
auction, one-tenth at least of the whole purchase-money niust be put down, and the
remainder within one calendar month, or the deposit is forfeited.
Lands are put up for sale in Lonot exceeding one square mile in extent.
8. In Ceylon, Land is sold by auction at an upset price, which is to be fixed by
the Governor, but which is not to be less than LI per acre. Before the Lands are
exposed for sale, they will be surveyed by the Government, and duly advertised.
9. At the Cape of Good Hope the upset price is 2s. per acre in the old Colony,
and 4s. per acre in the District of Natal.
10. The several prices above-mentioned are of course subject to a revision at any
time by the proper authorities, and the pecuniary amount of the Remission made to
Officers cannot be increased on account of an increased value set upon the Lands.

14 days, was most oppressive ; a very dry parching wind also set in for some days, prodm in
general sickness in Colombo. Heavy mists have likewise prevailed in the mornings, which
have been intensely cold latterly.
This was an exceedingly pleasant month up to the 18th : the nights were still, cool,
and very lovely. There were heavy falls of rain on the 16th and three nights following.
$ The weather during this month has been most oppressive ; no breeze during the days,;
and very little rain has fallen.

the South -West Monsoon regularly set in about the middle of the month.
This month has been remarkably pleasant ; the days breezy and cloudy; the nights
very cool. A good deal of rain has fallen ; the showers generally accompanied by a stormy
wind.
** The weather throughout this month has been pleasant ; the wind upon three nova
sions was high, blowing half a gale of wind, accompanied with a strong swell from seawards,
which caused some damage amongst the shipping in the roads; the "Long shore" wild
prevailed from the 22nd to 24th (inclusive), being a most unusual circumstance at thi3
season of the year.
ft The weather has been very agreeable this month.
U The temperature during this month has been most agreeable. During th

PORT OF COLON1130.
This part of the Coast of Ceylon is low, with some isolated hills at a distance
in the country. On the northern side of the Town of Colombo the ground rises
a little, and is covered with lofty Cocoanut and other trees, which are generally
seen coming from seaward before the Light house or Flag Staff.
The high mountain having on it a sharp cone, called Adams Peak, bears faun
Colombo E. a S. distant 46 miles. It rises 7,421 feet above the level of the sea,
and in clear weather has been seen at the distance of 30 leagues. In the N.
E monsoon, it is generally visible in the morning, and sometmes throughout the
day : but it is rarely seen in the S. W. monsoon through the humid atimsphere
which prevails in that season.
A brilliant light is exhibited every night from a Lighthouse near the Flag Staff of the
Fort. The height of the light above the sea is 97 feet, and it mar be seen in
clear weather until intercepted by the horizon. It is in latitude 6' 5'6/ 6" North,
and in longtitude 79 49/ 48" East.
About 7 miles off shore there is a steep bank of coral and sand with 15 fathoms
of water over it. It is not more than half a mile broad. but extends several
miles in the direction of the coast. About two miles to the westward of the banks
soundings are obtained in 28 fathoms water on greenish sand. and close to it
there are 23 fathoms. After passing over the bank the water suddenly deepens
to 25 fathoms on sand. and from thence the depth gradually lessens as the shore is
approached. Abut three quarters of a mil. S. W. by W, W. from the Lighthouse lies the northern and shallowest part of a bed of rocks called the Drunken
Sailor," on which the sea generally breaks, the depth of water bring ()tit!, 6 reel,
This ledge is about 100 yards in length, but with the exception of about teeter
yards of the northern part, there are 4. 5, and 6 fathoms on it In the N. E.
monsoon, when the sea is smooth and the breakers are not seen. it is prudent
not to come within 9 fathoms water, as there are 8 fathoms close to the rub,
The passage within the ledge is clear with 7 fathoms on sandy bottom, but the
position of these rocks is so near the shore and so much to the sourlea.ael of
the usual anchorage, that no advantage can be gained by steering near thew at
any time. The currents off Colombo are subject to considerable variat,on. partklarly about the changes of the monsoon, when they are the strongest ; but
rally there is not so much current as to inconvenience shipping having to C.011111111nicate with the shore without coming to anchor,
The greatest difference between high and low water recorded at Colombo is not
more than 2 ft. 10 inches. In the S. W. monsoon when the mean level of the
Ocean is the lowest, the difference between high and low water is from .; to LI
inches. On those days when the difference between high and low tearer nut
more than 6 inches, the rise and fall4as been observed to take place four time,
within 24 hours.
The anchorage ground is very good in Colombo roadstead, particularly in 7 and
8 fathoms, with the Lighthouse bearing S. S. E. and the Dutch Church E S

When the sea is high it breaks with great force on the Cur and renders the

PORT OF POINT DE CALLE

Point de Guile Lighthouse in Latitude 6 1 , 45" N., Longi:ude 80 16' E.
stands at the southern angle of the Fort, which is built on a rocky peninsula;
several rocky islets lay off the Lighthouse, one of which (named Pigeon Island)
- has 3 Cocoanut trees on it: the harbour is to the eastward of the Fort ; waterlog pint at the opposite side of the entrance, bearing from the Lighthouse E. by
S. S. I mile ; it is considered safe at all seasons, but many rocks having from 3
to 20 feet water are scattered over the entrance and inside, rendering it neces
+miry for Vessels to take a Pilot : the outermost of these rocks having 12 feet water
'on it, bears from the Lighthouse about S. by E, E. mile.
The best anchorage in the roads is to the S. W. of these rocks, in from 15 to
j8 fathoms water, with the Lighthouse on with the Haycock, or the Church
with Pilot's tree ; or, if the marks cannot he distinguished, the Lighthouse bearing
7 from N. by E. to N. N. E. about 1 mile off shore:
S. W. by W. 3 miles from Galle Lighthouse there is a rocky Bank called
Gallehoogalle Bank, nearly a mile in extent, having in one place only 16 fathoms
water, the general depth on it being 18 to 22, inside this bank there is 29 fathoms

THE HARBOUR OF TRINCOMALIE.

situated on. the east side of the Island of Ceylon, contains a
most spacious safe harbour, and with its small bays and coves is perhaps superior to
any in India. Every part of the harbour is land-locked, the anchorage good for
any number of Ships and of any hurthen.
Back Bay from the 1st of April to the 25th October is also an excellent anchosage with (rem 10 to 3 fathoms water good holding ground, sea quite smooth,
so that the smallest boats may land. Fort Frederick torms the S. E. point of the

A good light which can be seen 15 miles off is exhibited at the Flag-staff every
night soon after sunset ; it is 206 feet above the leVel of the sea, and serves to
guide Ships by night clear of the rocks off Pigeon Island to the north and the
shoals off Foul Point to the S. E., as well as to lead them to an anchorage in
Back Bay. Pilots for the inner harbour are necessary, as there are dangerous

Back Bay as before directed.
Atter the 25th October the anchorage in Back Bay is not safe until the middle of Match, as there is frequently towards the end of October before the North
East monsoon sets in, a heavy swell with variable winds. Ships should not attempt the Inner Harbour during the night except under most favourable circumstances, such as good moon-light and having a person on board possessing local
knowledge of the Harbour and the entrance to it. In such a case and being
abreast of Flag-staff Point the Light kept N. N. W. I W. will lead clear of

INSTRUCTIONS FOR NAVIGATING THE GULF OF MANAAR,

Some few years since it was considered a hazardous undertaking for a Vessel
of any size to proceed far up into the Gulf of Manaar, the more particularly
during the S.W. Monsoon, when it was supposed to be impossible to beat out
again. Later experience, however, has shewn that no dangers exist that may not
be avoided by ordinary care and attention ; and that as regards working to windward gainst the Monsoons, no difficulty will be experienced if the following instructions be attended to.
In the N.E. Monsoon, that is, from November to March inclusive, fine sea.
ther, with land and sea breezes, will be found to prevail on the Ceylon side of
the Gulf, where good anchorage may always be selected between Colombo and
Chilaw, at 11 to 3 miles off shore, in 6 to 9 fathoms, sand. Vessels wishing to
beat up during the first three months ought therefore to keep over on that side
till they have advanced sufficiently far to make certain of their port if bound to
the Indian coast, as the breezes there may be excepted to blow steadily and
strong N.N.E. with a strong lee current. In rounding the Cape Comorin at this

time the Indian shore may be kept on board till abreast of Manupaud Point. a
high promontory, with a small white Church erected on its summit. A Vessel
may then stretch across with advantage, and probably in the next tack fetch Toaicoreen, the only port on the Indian coast frequented by large Vessels.
Small Vessels of light draught will also find this the easiest method of work* up; and if bound to Paumben bad better keep the Ceylon shore till abreast
of Calpentyn, which they may know by the three long hills of Kodramallai, the
only ones near the coast. They can then stand across, and make Paumben either
by the eastern channel between the Island of Ramisseram and the Reef and
Island south of that port, or by the western channel between Freshwater and
Anapaar Islands at Valinookum Point.
In the S.W. Monsoon a Ship ought to keep over on the Indian side till near
Manapaud Point, when she will generally be able to fetch to windward of Colombo, and be clear of all dangers. The only safe place for Ve..sells of size to
anchor in on the Ceylon coast,, during this Monsoon, is at Colombo, where the
current from the Kalany Gangs or !Nowell River, running to windward, takes
much of the strain off the cables of Vessels riding there. Should one nevertheless part, or find it necessary to slip, she may seek safety by standing across the
Gulf to. Tuticoreen, which, being situated on the weather side, affords good shelter and anchorage. A fixed light, seen 8 or 10 miles off, was erected on flare
Island at this port last year with a view to facilitate the approach to the anchorage during the night; and the instructions relative to it are herewith republished.
Small craft working down from Paumben will do well to keep inside the
Islands till they reach the Western entrance of the inland navigation at Valinookurn Point. They can now work down near the coast as far as Manapaud Point,
when their fetching Colombo on the starboard tack may be considered certain.
Colombo Flagstaff, which is close to the lighthouse, is in 69 56' 6" North
latitude, and 79 56' 6" East longitude. The anchorage, as given by Captain
Steuart, the Master Attendant, is in 7 to 81 fathoms during the S.W. Monsoon,
with the lighthouse S.S.E. Easterly, and the Dutch Church, a large building in
the bottom of the bay, the upper part of which having a thatched belfry may
be seen over the houses of the Town, bearing E. by S. In the N.E. Monsoon
Vessels may anchor farther in, with the light S. 4 E. and the same Church E.S,E
in 64 to 7 fathoms, sand and mud in each position. The Drunken Sailor, a
patch of rocks about 100 yards long and 20 broad, with only 6 feet over it in
some parts, is situated 1,150 yards S.W. by W. 4 W. of the flagstaff, and 1,000
yards off the nearest shore. It has from 6 to 9 fathoms close round it.
The Harbour, which is only used by small craft, is well protected during the
S.W. Monsoon by the Custom House Point, behind which they anchor in 24 to 34
fathoms, sand, with it bearing from S.W. to W.S W.. and Mutwall Point N. by E.
to N.N.E. A sandy spit extends from the first-named Point in a northerly direction, with 14 to 24 fathoms over it and 5 to 6 fathoms close outside. To
avoid this the Dutch Church ought to be kept E. by S. 4 S. till the Custom
House bears S. by W.
Negombo Fort, off which Vessels may shortly have to anchor for the purpose
of shipping Sugar the produce of estates lately brought under cultivation in its
vicinity, is in 7 12' 9" North latitude, and 79 53' East longitude. The 'hest
anchorage is a mile off shore, with the Fort about East, Northerly, just clear of
Negombo rocky point, in 64 to 7 fathoms, sand ; but as this sand is not deep,
and the stream of the Negombo Lake, which empties itself here, sets to the
North, I would decidedly warn Vessels from anchoring here during the S W.
Monsoon, or front May to August, inclusive. Rocks awash extend from the Point
W. for 4u0 yards, and the ledge may be then traced in the same
N. by W.
direction, with 3, 4, and 3 fathoms over it for 2t miles further, till it terminates in a coral patch, having 9 to 12 feet over it, 24 miles off shore. Small
craft can cross this ledge, and anchor in 2 to 3 fathoms, with Negombo Point
W., and the Fort S.E. by E., from 1. to 4 mile off shore.
S.W.
Chilaw Bungalow, in 7 34' North latitude, and 799 51' 29" East longitude,
may be,,known by its high red tiled roof, seen 8 or 9 miles off in clear weather.
On the Charts now extant some rocks are placed near this at some distance
from the shore, but they were found to be not more than I of a mile off, and
consequently cannot be considered as forming any obstacle to general navigation.
They are situated 5 miles due North of the Bungalow; and are in a line
between it and the next Point. Twenty-one miles North of the Bungalow uneven
soundings on rock, to as little as 3/ fathoms are found from 3 to 4 miles off
shore, with 6 and 8 fathoms immediately outside. Vessels of size therefore ought
to be careful not to come within this distance of the land hereabouts, although
small craft can at all times go over the shoal.

Instructions for Nariffating
CPA RT V.
Dutch Bay, in 6 19' North latitude, and 79 50' East longitude, is well sheltered from all winds, but more particularly from the S.W., which are the
strongest on the coast. Ves=els can anchor here in 24 to 3 fathoms, stiff mud,
close inside the neck of sand that forms the Western side of the .Bay, with a
Cocoanut tope mid house called Paringethoray bearing S.S.W. The only dangers
in the approach to it are a rocky patch, with 21 over it at low water, 2 miles
W.S.W. of the North end of the neck of sand before mentioned, and some shoal
water 3 miles N.N.W. off the same Point, and 24 miles West of some Palmyra
trees, a few of which are leafless, on the Island of Karateevo. This last extends North and South about 2 miles. with an average breadth of one, Raving
from 3 ieet to 3 fathoms. with a small patch of sand, generally dry, due West
of the above trees. There are 4 to 5 fathoms to the Eastward of this reel, but no person. without being well acquainted with the coast, ought to attempt the passage
inside. From seaward the North end of the neck of sand ought to be brought
to bear S.E. 1 E., when it can be steered for, wad passed within 50 yards, carrying 3 to 4 fathoms, sand.
Very good anchorage in the S.W. Monsoon may also be found under the lee
of Kodramallai Point, in 32' North latitude. and 79 50' East longitude,
which may he known by the three bug hills seen over the low land of Karateevo. In steeling for this anchorage, the North end of the hills ought to be
kept about E. by S. till well past the island, when the anchor may be let go
in 21 to 31 fathoms, sand, with the rocky promontory bearing S.S.W. to S.W.,
to 11 a ile off.
No Vessels ought to proceed on the Ceylon side further towards the head of
the Gulf' than this, as there are many shoal places at some distance from the
shore, and no good holding ground. In the S.W. Monsoon a strong current is
found setting to the Northward over Adam's bridge. which abates as the Indian
coast' is approached ; and a contused sea is generally found to prevail near
Mannar.
The Eastern entrance to Paemben is in 9 15' 30" North latitude, and 79
17' East longitude. Some small islets are situated at the East end of the reef,
between which and the island of Ramisseram the channel leads. A pole
has lately been erected on the Northern limit of the shoal water inside these
islets, between which and llamisseram deep water is to be found. The south
end of the cut through the horse-shoe bank. by which Vessels have to pass in
going through the Paumheo channel, bears from this pole E. by N.
A fixed light has lately been eshibited at Paumben, seen I I to 12 miles off in
clear weather, respecting which directions have been separately published, and
which are recommended to the notice of Mariners frequenting the port.
The Western entrance to Pauruben is situated in 9 9, North latitude, and
78 40' East Longitude, lying between Valinookam Point, on the Main coast of
India, and the small island of Anapaar. which last must not be approached nearer
than a mile till the South end hears South of East.
The passage will then be entered, when a straight course for Keelakarry at N.E
by E. may be kept, care being taken to avoid some reefs nearly awash which
lie off Eraviaddy Point, the easternmost limit of the deep bay opposite the en
trance just described. Five and six fathoms will be found at this entrance, shoaling to 3 farther in, with an occasional cast of 91, sand. The best anchorage at
Keelakarry is in 21 to 3 fathoms, stiff mud, with a detatched ruin East of the
town bearing North, and some large terraced houses N.W. Pilots here come on
board to take vessels to Paumben, which lies 26 miles farther to the Eastward;
but should a Vessel proceed without such assistance, the following directions, must c
be followed.
Steer for a little outside the next Point (Naagimundel) till a small tope he.
tween a hillock at the mouth of a rivulet and an old ruined temple bears
North. Then stand across about S.E. 4 E. for a little outside the West end of
the next island (Tallier. This leads over the deepest part of a spit in 2} lathorns, with 7 feet on each side, where a buoy will shortly be moored to indicate
the channel, Two bungalows at the next Point on the Main will now be seen
and when they bear N.E. 4 E. steer E.N.E. till they are passed, when due Easi
will take a Vessel to the buoys on each side of the passage at Ramasawmy's
Choultry. To avoid a sandy knoll with only 7 feet over it. the Southern of these
buoys ought to bear E. by N. when about f mile off; and after passing between
them steer about East, for a high beacon erected on a patch of rocks. Leaving
this 50 to 100 yards to the Southward, stand on for the North end of the next
island, Pulleeteevo, and round it at about I mile off, keeping E.N.E. till the opening between Pulleeteevo and the next Island bears South; then steer East, sad

Vessel drawing more than 85 feet ought to attempt this navigation without a
Keelakarry
Tuticureen Light is in 9 47' 17" North latitude, and 780 14' 1" East longitude. The following are the directions respecting it before adverted to.
A Vessel making the Port at night may anchor with it bearing from W. N. W.
to W. by S. about 11 to 2 miles off shore, where good holding ground will be
found in 6 to 65 fathoms. At 35 miles distance with the same bearings the
ground is foul, on Pearl banks.
In approaching from the South, the light may be kept about N. N. W. till within 3 or 4 miles, when the above anchorage may be selected ; but should a Vessel
suddenly deepen her water from 7 or 8 fathoms to 12, 15, or 20, she should immediately steer North till she makes the light, taking care to keep further to seaward if it bears North of N. N .W. The outer part of this deep water lies a little to
the North of the head of the Coilnapatam reef, and bears S. by E. 10 miles
from the Tuticoreen Light.
From the North a Vessel may keep the light about S. W. till within 3 or 4
miles, when she must steer more out for the anchorage; but in no instance
ought the water to be shoaled under 65 fathoms, excepting with the bearings on
for the anchorage, and then not under 6.
In the N. E. Monsoon Vessels should lie with a good scope of cable out, as
although the seas are not heavy, they are sharp, and occasion a chain to jerk,
The sea breeze at this time blows on the reef, and a second anchor, with chain
ranged, ought always to be kept ready for letting go.
In the S. W. Monsoon, which usually lasts from the middle of May to the
middle of August, the Port may be made without fear, for although the winds
are very violent, they are invariably off shore from W. to S. W. accompanied by
smooth water. At this time Vessels may approach the reef to 5 fathoms ; but
should always have a stream anchor to seaward, as occasionally, during the lulls
of the Monsoon, a light air comes in from the Eastward.
As a rule, Vessels of size ought not to approach the land above Tuticoreen
nearer than 6 or 7 miles, as 25 or 3 fathoms are found 5 miles off in some
places. When some large clumpy trees at Putnurniadoor, seen 10 miles off, and
when no other object on shore is visible, bear North of West, the shoal water
is to the Northward.
There are two channels for small craft into Tuticoreen harbour, but that to the
North is so intricate as to be seldom used. The Southern one leads between the
southernmost island and the mainland, the reef connecting them being crossed in
12 to 14 feet at distance of to 14 mile of the island. This being passed, a
course may be steered for Devil's Point on the Main. after closely rounding which
a small Vessel may stand direct for the town of Tuticoreen, carrying 11 to 9
feet. Before passing Devil's Point 25 fathoms are found, sand and mud.
At the distance of 25 miles due East of the Pennacoil tope, a scanty tope to the
south of a large ruined building. 9 miles from Devil's Point, is situated the in
ner edge of an extraordinary natural basin in the rocks, 44 miles East and West,
and averaging miles in breadth : the outer part being the broadest and
deepest. The bottom is composed of fine sand and mud, in 7 fathoms on the
Western, to 18 and 20 fathoms on the Eastern extreme, from which it suddenly
shoals to 9, 8, and 75 fathoms on a Pearl bank. In standing up the coast during the night with a scant wind, this is good ground for ascertaining a Vessel's
position, as no similar spot exists from Paumben to Comorin. From the outer
part, in 15 to 20 fathoms, the anchorage off Tuticoreen bears N. by E. 94
miles.
Good anchorage in 3 to 4 fathoms, mud, with this tope bearing West 1 to 15
mile, is to be found here during the Southerly winds under the lee of a reef
which commences 24 miles N. E. by N. of the next point (Cofinapatnam), and
continues with little exception to Cape Comorin. As far as Manapaud Point this
reef varies in its distance from the land from I to 21 miles, but thence to Comorin it seldom exceeds 5 a mile. The head of this reef lies S. by W. 105
miles from Tuticoreen Light.
Trictendore Point, in 8 29 55" North latitude, and 78 9' 51" East longitude
is 18 miles S. by W. Westerly of Tuticoreen Light, and may he known by its
having a high dark Pagoda on its extremity, seen in ordinary weather 12 to 18
miles off.
Manapaud Point, situated 84 miles S. S. W. f, W. of the Trichendore Pagoda, is
a high sandy promontory jutting out boldly into the sea. It has a small whitewashed Church on its summit, visible in clear weather 12 to 13 miles off, which
appears at first like a fillip under sail. Some foul ground in 4 to 10 fathoms is

There are many other patches with 5.4 and 6 fathoms over which Vessels might
pass, .yet the safest plan wi.en going between the reef and the Point is not
to bring the Church to the West of North till within 2 or 3 miles of it. An
E. N. E. course will then take a Vessel out clear.
Cape Comorin, which is placed by Colonel Eambton in his Trigonometrical survey in 8 4' 35" North latitude, and 77 34' 46" East longitude, rises in a gradual slope, is covered on the East side with Palmyra trees, and may be easily
distinguished by the reddish appearance of the soil, and a large white Choultry
situated near the beach. Two large rocks with a small one outside, on which the
sea at all times brealcs with much violence, stretch to the distance of f mile
from the shore. They are steep to and may with a fair wind be approached
mile in 8 or 8# fathoms, but with scant wind caution is necessary, as
within
the current sets rapidly round the Point, and rosy drift a vessel into danger.
The breezes in the Gulf of Mariaar are generally stronger than the adjacent
coasts, the only moderate months being April and October ; yet if the instructions already given be attended to, no difficulty will be found in working up or
down against them. The N. E. Monsoon sets in with force about the middle of
November. and lasts till the end of January, bringing with it a current of from
20 to 30 miles a day to the S. W. It blows steadily from N. N. E. along the
Indian shore, but on the opposite side is modified into land and sea breezes,
with very fine weather. In February land and sea breezes commence on the Indian side and by April the general set of the si in,' in the Gulf will be found
to have rfrawit round to the Southward, the sea breezes being S. E. to S. W., according to the coast on which they prevail. These now increase in force till about
the middle of May, when the regular S. W. Monsoon sets in, blowing with great
violence from W.S. W. on the Indian coast, and S. W. on the Ceylon coast, where it
commences rather earlier, and is attended with heavy falls or rain, thunder and
lightning. In August the strength of the Monsoon abates, but strong Southerly
winds are still experienced in this and the next month, becoming lighter as the
season advances. Variable and gentle breezes, with smooth water, may usually be
expected in October, lasting till the setting in of the N. E. Monsoon, which is
ushered in on the Indian side by 15 or 20 days of heavy rain.
The current will generally be found to set with the wind in the strength of
the Monsoons; but this is not invariably the case. Care and attention must therefore be paid to the soundings, and unless a good Pilot be on board, a Vessel
ought not to shoal her water during the night to less than 12 fathoms above or 18
or 20 fathoms below Manapaud on the Indian coast ; or to less than 10 fathoms
above and 20 below Colombo, increasing the depth to 40 till abreast of Point
de Galle on the Ceylon coast ; excepting of course her position be ascertained
by the bearing of the light at Tuticoreen or Colombo.
Average high water occurs at f p. m. on full and changeordinary rise
and tall 18 to 24 inchesat springs 30 to 36 inches. The flood sets in about
E. N. E., and the ebb about S. W., but their direction is greatly influenced by the
wind. The variation of the compass may be stated at sbout 1 Easterly.
All the above longitudes are calculated on the assumption of the Galle Flagstaff
being in 80 16' East.

Paumben Light HouseSailing Instructions.

PAUM BEN LIGHT HOUSE.

The facilities for the passage of Vessels through the channels at Paumben, having
been considerably increased of late, the following notice is published for general
information :Paumben Light House is in
Latitude 9 17' 30" N.
Longitude 79 12' 34"E.
Assuming Galle Light to be in 80 14' 20"E.
The light is placed on a column erected on a Hill to the Eastward of the Town of
Paumben, is 84 feet above the level of the Sea, and in ordinary weather should be
seen from the deck of a small craft, such as usually navigate the Gulf of Mannar and
Pants Bay, from 11 to 12 miles off.
In making Paumben from the North during the night, Vessels may run for the light
bearing S. W. to E. S. E., keeping rather out in coming from the Eastward, if wader 6
fathoms, as the water shoals suddenly after that depth is obtained off the coast of
Ramisseram.
The best anchorage is with the light bearing from S. E. 71 E. to E. S. E., mile to 1
mile off, in 3} to 4 fathoms, sand and mud, good holding- ground. The Northern
entrance to the Channel, which is indicated by a Black Buoy, will then be from I to
mile off.
_ In approaching during the night from the South, care must be taken to avoid the 2
Fathom Rock, from which the light bears N. 14 W. 17 miles, and which has 31 to 5
fathoms in its immediate neighbourhood. If trom the Westward, a vessel ought to bring
the light North, and run with that bearing till about 5 miles off, which, after taking her
over a rocky ledge having 31 to 51 fathoms on, will place her in 51 to 61 fathoms,
mud and sand, about
mile from the reef extending Westward from the shingle Islets.
She may then steer N. E. by E.
E., till the light bears N. W. by W., when she can
run for it till in smooth water, and anchor in 4 to 5 fathoms, sand and mud, between
the laud and shingle Islets before mentioned.
If the light is made from the Eastward, a vessel ought to keep it N. N. W. 1 W.,
edging out or to the North a little as she shoals tier crater to 4 fathoms, to avoid the
shingle Islets, the Eastern end of the Reef off which bears from the light S. 24 E. 3i
miles. She may then anchor as before. This course would take her very near a patch of
rock with 3 fathoms on, but as the Craft using the Channel are of light draught, no fear
need be entertained of striking on it.
These instructions for the South Entrance are intended for the use of Vessels nearing
the Port during the S. W.Monsoon, In the N. E. Monsoon the Island of Ramisseraru,
which may be approached on this side to within a cable's length, becoming a weather
shore, the water is sufficiently smooth to allow of Vessels anchoring anywhere, and the
bearings above given clearly shew the dangers to be avoided.
The least water in the Paumben Channel at the lowest spring tide is 81 feet, but as
the average rise on this is 26 to 28 inches, and
October, November and December,
SO to 36, and at times even 42 inches, Vessels drawing 10 feet can safely make use of it.
Native Pilots are &ways ready to carry Vessels through; anti to obviate any inconvenience which might be felt by Commanders unable to speak their language, a illindooBriton is employed as Head Pilot, whose services will be always available.

Remarks,
The Latitude is the mean from 348 altitudes, taken at Mr. Templeton's house, and reduced to the Flag Staff. The Longitude is
derived from that of Madras, and other well fixed positions on the
Coast, from runs of the Melville Curassaa Benares and Royal Tiger.
A comparison of very exact observations made during the year 1840 &
has required the Longitude formerly given to be increased 6".

The Longitude of Madras has been taken from the table at p. 606 of the Nautical Almanac for the year 1854, and as this differs .2'. 10'!
from that given in the Ceylon Almanacs for former }ears, it has been necessary to add this difference to the longitudes of the places included
in the table.

UNIVERSAL EXHIBITION
OF 1855.
CATALOGUE
OF THE
NATURAL & ARTIFICIAL PRODUCTS

OF
CEYLON,
INTENDED TO REPRESENT THE INDUSTRY AND
RESOURCES OF THE COLONY
AT THE
UNIVERSAL EXHIBITION.
FORWARDED IN DECEMBER,
1854.
COLOMBO:
. WILLIAM 8KEEN, GOVERNMENT rit1NTEE, CEYLON.
MDCCCLV,
A Committee having been appointed by His Excellency Sra
GEORGE
K.C.B., under the instructions of the Secretary of State for

the Colonies, for the purpose of securing a due representation of the In.
dustry and Resources of the Island at the Paris Universal Exhibition of
1855 ; a collection of its natural and manufactured products, formed,
partly from private contributions, and partly paid for with the funds voted
by the Legislative Council, and as complete as the limited time allowed
for its preparation would admit, was forwarded to England in December
last.
The interest evinced in the Collection, which was exposed to the public
for a few days at Colombo before its shipment, combined with the desirableness of putting the Committee's Agent in Paris in possession of a
list calculated to facilitate the arrangement of the various objects for
exhibition, has induced the Committee to cause the following Catalogue,
drawn up by Mr..Nietner, to be printed ; which at the same time that it
will afford to the Agent an assistance that must be almost indispensable,
will remain an useful record of the resultthey are encouraged to hope
not wholly unsuccessfulof local efforts to promote the intention of the
Imperial Commission.

Sanseviera Zeylanica.This plant is common in many parts of Ceylon. It
appears to prefer somewhat dry localities, such as Hambantotte, Lower Ouvnh, &c.,
where it abounds. No attention is paid to its cultivation in the Island, and Mats
manufactured from it are scarcely to be had, although they are the best in the Island.
Many fibre yielding plants of the natural families of the Malvaceaa and Urticacess
are also to be met with in great abundance in the Island, but to none of them is any
attention paid. In fact, hitherto Cocoanut and Kittul have been the only fibres
cared for.

manufacture of Paper. Specimens of pulp and paper prepared
from the inner bark accompanying. The bark when boiled yields
abundant jelly.
2.Sanseviera Zeylanica. Strong white fibre. Specimens dyed with
Sappan wood accompanying.
3.Ananas sativus. Long white silky fibre.
4.Musa Paradisiaca, Wild. Rather coarse fibre, resembling Manilla
hemp.
5.Antiaris saccidora. The natives of Ouvah prepare from the bark of
this tree materials for very strong and elastic sacks. The trees
selected for the purpose are from 9 in. to 1 foot in diameter. The
stem is cut down and divided into junks from which the bark is well
beaten with a stone or club, until the parenchymatous parts, or
what is commonly called the corticle, comes off, leaving the liber
or inner bark attached to the wood, which is then entirely separated from it by drawing it out with the hand. The bark thus
obtained is of a fibrous structure, remarkably tough, presenting
the appearance of a woven fabric. This is next sewn into sacks,
filled with sand, and then dried in the sun.

Produces genuine Gum kino of commerce. The black resin is soluble in turpentine. It forms a superior black varnish. To a saturated solution of Vateria
resin in oil of turpentine, add by degrees small pieces of the black resin, and put
it into a bottle and shake it well, until the whole is dissolved ; then apply it to
wood or metal. Specimens of the varnish on wood and metal are sent.

N.B.--The above are some of the numerous Medicinal Oils used by the Singhalese
doctors; they are frequently applied externally, and poured into the nose, ears and
sometimes eyes: the first is called a "name" and the last " fay ina." It may be
necessary to observe here that the " Jatraleptic " or "Epidermic" method is very
much in vogue amongst them. Powerful vegetable and mineral drugs are combined
and dissolved, or suspended by minute divisions of their particles, in some bland
oil or unctuous liquid, which is applied to different parts of the body by assiduous
friction, as was used by Hippocrates and other Jatraleptics of old ; this class of
remedies appears to have fallen into disuse, but attention was called to it subsequently by some French writers, amongst whom we find Chreatien, vide Art. Jatraleptie, in the Diet. de Medea. et de Chiarg. pratiq.
They also apply medicinal oils to the internal ear and the Bucco-guttural membrane, and treat apoplexy, coma, epilepsy, delirium and general collapse of the
vital powers by such external application. When we consider the highly sensitive
and vascular state of the pituitary or schneiderean membrane, its extent and continuity over the bones of the nose, the pharynx, and the Eustachean tubes, and the
numerous ramifications upon its surface from the olfactory as well as branches of
the 5th pair of nerves, and of the anatomical relation of the internal ear to the
brain, we can readily conceive the modus operandi of these local irritante ; they act
as powerful stimuli by reflex nervous power, and as such they are used by the
Singhalese doctors, often with good effects, in a variety of cerebral, nervous and
spasmodic affections.

N.B.The French orthography has been followed as much as possible in spelling
the Singhalese names, as being the most adapted to convey the true sounds; they
are distinguished by the acute ('), the grave (' ) and the circumflex (I') accents
over the vowels. n at the end of a word or syllable must have a nasal sound, e.g.
Bin-sbbo as if written Bing-Bebe, As6mod4gan as Asimaddgang, Dan, Dang.
Singhalese Pills for Cholera, 4-e.

Most of the Singhalese Julie sani-guli or Cholera pills, are composed
of vegetable aromatics, in conjunction with arsenic, mercury, Datura
21
knetel, henip juice, opium and a species of aconite, &c. Hence the
reason why some of the pills are made so small, the metallic substances
in them are not frequently well mixed and finely triturated, and they
invariably require bees honey or some vehicle of proper consistence for
administration, as the pills are not swallowed whole, but are invariably dissolved or masticated when taken. Notwithstanding the apparently powerful and dangerous substances employed in their preparation,
they may be tried with safety, as the doses are small and frequently
repeated. The natives employ the pills, with great success in Cholera,
external heat and friction being also deemed of the utmost importance
as auxiliaries in the treatment.
1. Precase guile. So named from its certain success in Cholera. In cases
of Cholera attended only with vomiting, and before purging has set
in, give the pills mixed with sugar-cane juice and the juice of Battekarewille, Memordica muricata. After purging has set in, give with
green ginger juice and the juice of the Ficus Benghalensis. Dose 4 to
10 pills, repeated according to symptoms.
2. Soorejiwike Jalle-sanni Impale guile. So called after a celestial physician Soorejiwike. The pills are administered first with green ginger
juice and honey, and repeated, if necessary, with lime juice and
white marble ground together. Dose 6 to 12 pills.
3. Jalesani-kumare-gulie. Literally signifying the Prince of Cholera
pills, and held in high estimation. Dose as before, given with ginger
juice, honey and juice of Kohombe, (Melia azaderaehta.)
4. Jalesani-gulie. In Cholera and all kinds of vomiting and purging
resulting from a deranged and acrid state of the humours. In Cholera
give with green ginger juice and bees honey, if a second dose is
necessary, give it with ginger juice and Margoes, oil ; if cramps
supervene, grind the pills with the oils of Sesamum, Margosa, Cocoanut, Castor and Mie, (Bessie latifolia) and let the joints,
extremities, palms of the hands, &c., be well rubbed with the same,
(having the oil previously heated). Dose 6 to 12.
5. Hingulardi rase. In all diseases arising from morbid air,(inflammatory
and spasmodic diseases) with green ginger juice. In the pains of the
back and sides of lying in women, with ginger juice and Castor oil ;
in lock jaw of lying in women, with the seeds of the Cardiospermurn
Halicacabun (Penele gedi) and Nike juice, Justicia manta. In
colics and pains of the abdomen, with the juice of Ere-badu. Dose 4
to 6 pills or more.
6. Chardi-vinaee. Anti-emetic pills. For all kinds of vomiting, to be
given ground with nutmegs and lime juice ; in every form of irritability and disorder of the stomach. Dose 2 to 6-10.

Coffee. In Ceylon Coffee succeeds best at an elevation from 1200 to 4500 ft.;
the quantity, generally speaking, lessening, but the quality improving with the
elevation. By the natives a little of inferior description is grown in the low country.
There are about 150 Estates belonging to Europeans, comprising about 30,000
acres of cultivated ground, to which considerable additions are annually made.

Cinnamon. Although it is to be met with in a wild state, at a great elevation
in the hills, appears to succeed best along the sea-coast. The plantations are
situated on that portion of it between Galle and Negombo, where about 14,000
acres are cultivated. Of late no new plantations have been laid out.

Sugar from canes is prepared to a very small extent. The cane flourishes almost
anywhere, but appears somewhat more aqueous than elsewhere; and to the difficulties and disappointments in the manufacture arising from this circumstance
most of the numerous failures in attempts made some ten years ago may be attributed. There are but four or five small establishments at present conducted by
Europeans, and the entire quantity exported in 1353 did not exceed 2,962 cwt.
The Cocoa and Caryota Jaggery prepared in the south is consumed by the natives ;

Cotton. Frequent attempts have been made to introduce foreign varieties, but
all have failed to be successful. Throughout the Island, it was found they grew
perfectly well ; the produce was of very fair quality, but unfortunately, no remunerative quantity was obtainable. One of the principal causes of the latter drawback was a premature dropping off of the pods, observed all over the Island, but
not, that we are aware of, in any other Cotton country. Of New Orleans Cotton,
the proportion of pods that last has been found smaller than those from the Seaisland variety ; the former, although somewhat inferior in quality, is therefore
thought better adapted for introduction than the other.
No. 7.Tobacco.
5 Samples by Mr. Pieris.
Tobacco is pretty extensively grown by the natives in some parts of the island,
especially at Jaffna, Negombo, and in Ouvah and some portions of the Eastern Province. The quality of the leaf is generally spoiled in the course of preparation; it
is therefore but little used by Europeans. Some attempts made by the latter to
improve upon the native article have hitherto been found unsuccessful. The native
tobacco exported in 1853, amounted to V,952 cwt.

" Elephant. This animal is now principally to be found in the East and North
of the Island, but there still in very large numbers. The late Major Rogers is
known to have killed upwards of 1000 with his own rifle, of which the skull and
tusks now exhibited were a trophy.
Cheta, Leopard. This animal is found in the same locality. A dark brown
variety is occasionally to be met with, and more rarely a black.
A recent, and, it is believed, a valuable discovery of a bank yielding the Coral
of commerce, has been made near Balepitye in the Southern Province.
Fossil shells of small or middling size abound in the north of the Island, int-,
bedded in limestone. We are not aware that any other fossils have ever been
found.

ACCIDENTS AND EMERGENCIES IN THE JUNGLE.
Ttisse hints and instructions are intended to meet the emergencies of the far-off
world, where a case may be urgent, and the doctor beyond reach. It cannot be too
earnestly insisted on that the first best thing to be done when an accident has happened, is to send away at once for the doctor; if much time must elapse before he can be
brought to the spot, or if his assistance cannot be obtained, the next best course to be
adopted shall he set forth in these pages, as shortly and intelligibly as possible. II appily
for mankind, ordinary accidents require little more from the tenderness and intelligence
of others, than the obvious suggestions of good sense, aiding the operations
of nature, and committing to her the wonderful process of restoration, which to
our encouragement, is often seen equal to the necessity of the case, and bringing about
a perfect cure or a well-adapted compensation.
We shall treat in due order of Bruises, Sprains, Wounds, Bleeding, Scalds and Burnt
Broken Bones, Dislocations, Drowning, &c., Sundry Ailments, Useful Medicaments.
BRUISES.The best application rot a bruise. be it large or small, is moist warmth ;
therefore a warm bread and water poultice, or hot moist flannels should be put on, as
they supple the skin, so that it yields to the pressure.ef the blood beneath, and thereby
the pain is lessened. If the bruise be severe and in the neighbourhood of a joint, it is
well to apply some leeches on grown-up persons, but not on young children, because the
bleeding may be continued to a very serious extent. Ten or a dozen should be spread
over the whole bruised surface, and afterwards a poultice, or flannels should be applied,
to be continued so long as pain and swelling remain. If the bruise be on a joint,
the poulticing will often require to be long continued, on account of the stiffness which
may attend it, and when left off, it is advisable to wrap up the joint in a soap plaster.
Be cautious about the knee or ancle, because too early use of these parts after
injury often lays the foundation for serious mischief, and in scrofulous persons, especially
those who are young, may run on to the loss of a limb.
SPRAINEwlt is worse to sprain a joint than to break a limb ; and sprains are among
the most severe accidents to which we are liable, not only in present suffering, but
in their results. In general, the treatment of a sprain is to be conducted as a bruise,
with perfect rest ; and if it be a knee or ankle, the person should lie on bed or on a
sofa. Warm, moist flannels, a bread and water poultice on going to bed, and if' the
pain and swelling be considerable, leeches. When the tenderness is subsiding, and only
. . a little pain and stiffness in the joint.remain, a vinegar poultice is a very good application, as it produces a diversion of the low inflammation going on in the ligaments, by
bringing out a crop of pustules on the skin, at a time when the pressure in rubbing
with any stimulating liniment cannot be borne. Beware of too early use of a sprained
....s- joint, which often swells a long time after the injury ; in which case it may be bound
with straps of soap plaster, or a roller.
WOUNDS.Cuts or chops, if they be not large, and have not divided any important
parts, are the most simple and managable wounds. A large piece of flesh, even a finger
or a toe, may be cut or chopped off, and the wound heal kindly and readily under proper treatment. But, occasionally, a very trifling and simple cut, in an irritable or intemperate person, will prove fatal from locked-jaw. If a cut or chop be not very deep,
L
and if it do not bleed much, or even if it do bleed, but the bleeding can be staunched by
bathing for a short time with cold water, it is generally of not much consequence, and
can be easily and simply treated. The corresponding edges of the wound are to be
brought together as perfectly as possible, and while thus held, some stripe of plaster
are to be laid across the wound, with a small space between every two, so as to allow
the escape of an oozing fluid, which often continues for some hours. The edges of the
wound should not be dragged tightly together, but merely kept in place by the plaster ;
and if the wound be in the finger, arm, toe, or leg, it is better that the ends of the
plaster should nut overlap, as there is always a disposition to swell in the neighbourhood of the wounded part ; and then if the ends do overlap, it forms a tight band, which
at least causes unnecessary pain, even if it do not set up greater mischief. If common
sticking-plaster, or strapping, be not at hand, court-plaster may be applied, or thin bands
of tow, wound lightly round the part, and smeared with gum water ; or white of egg smeared on linen ; or, in the absence of all these, a soft bit of linen may be wound round
the part, which is quickly moistened by the oozing from the wound, and as it dries
the linen sticks pretty firmly together. Should time bandage, of whatever kind, become
34
tight by the swelling, and cause pain, it should not at once be taken off, but the blade
of a pair of scissors should be carefully run beneath it, and it should be divided rem
end to end, on the opposite side to the wound. This generally gives instant relief, and
the dressing requires no further meddling with. It is always better to leave the dressing as long as it remains fast, and without pain, usually three, four, or five days, and if
then taken off, either the whole. or the greater part of the wound will be found united.
But if the wound, or its neighbourhood, become painful, and throb, the dressing
must be removed, which is best done by soaking in water of an agreeable warmth, or
by covering with a wet poultice, which after a few hours softens the dressing, so
that it can be easily removed. If the wound he not inflamed, that is, red and tender,
and if the discharge from it be good, that is, straw-coloured, and of a creamy consistence, the dressing may be re-applied ; but if the edges be red and inflamed, or if they
be pale and flabby, if the wound gape, if the matter be watery and stinking, then a
single strap or band is to be applied to keep the edges near together, and the part
must be covered with a poultice till the pain and inflammation cease, and the matter
be of a good kind. Do not mess a wound with Friar's balsam, Tincture of henjamtn, or
such nostrums, as they hinder rather than encourage its union ; and for the same reason,
use uo greasy applications.
A clean stab, if of depth, although it should not cause any serious mischief, generally does not heal so readily as a cut, because it often unites near the surface, whilst
its bottom lodges matter ; and therefore, although for some days it may seem to heal
very steadily, yet then it becoreFifftnful, the wound opens, a gush of matter follows,
and this may be repeated once or twice before the cure is completed.
A bruised cut, is to be treated by endeavou'ring to unite the edges by sticking-plaster
as in a clean cut ; but if there he much bruising, the part destroyed must separate and
be thrown off before the wound can heal. Apply a bread and water poultice first
to moderate the inflammation ; and as soon as matter begins to form, and the extent
of the slough is marked, which is shewn by the dropping in of the dead part, with a
narrow raw line between it and the living ; then change it for a linseed-meal poultice,
which is to be continued till the slough is come out, and the gap is filled up with
new flesh. When the new flesh gets above the edges of the wound, it is commonly
known as pried flesh, and wrongly supposed to prevent the healing of the wound,
for it is in reality the material which is produced for that purpose. When the hollow
of the wound has thus filled, the poultice may be left off, and the sore lightly bound
with straps of ssticking-plaster, or a linen bandage moistened with cold water, and
carried a few turns round, will often answer the same purpose. If the new flesh rise
much above the wound, it must either be kept down by pressure, or it may be brushed
lightly over with a bit of bluestone or blue vitriol ; and sometimes merely a bit of dry
lint will suffice.
BLEEDINGFrom a wound may generally be stopped by pressure ;if in the arm,
near the arm-pit, let a by-stander press his thumb firmly into the neck, behind the
middle of the collar bone ; if in the thigh, the pressure is made immediately below the
crease in the groin, the patient lying on his back. When the injury is below the middle
of the upper arm, or below the middle of the thigh, recourse may be had to
the stick-tournaquot, by passing a stunt handkerchief once or twice round the
limb, some distance, if possible, above the wound, and tied tightly and firmly. A piece
of tough stick is then pushed beneath the circular bandage thus formed, between it and
the skin, and twisted till the blood ceases to flow. The screwing should only be continued till the bleeding stop ; for if the bandage and stick be strong, and the twisting
be continued, the soft parts beneath may be severely and unnecessarily bruised.
SCALDS arm BeaNsRequire great promptitude and presence of mind. Be quick

in removing the sufferer from the tire or hot water, and let him be put to bed immediately ; cut the clothing off in pieces, and with much caution, as under rough handling the blistered or burnt skin may be torn off with it, and the accident rendered
much more dangerous and difficult to treat. Remember, that as it is always hoped
the scald or burn is confined to inflaming or blistering the skin, it is of the utmost
consequence not to burst the blister by tearing the skin, nor to let out the water it contains by pricking it. If the skin be unbroken, dry or wet applications, as they are
most handy, may be used ; but if the skin he broken, wet applications, if they can
be got at once, are bestotherwise dry ones must be used, the object being to protect
the exposed sensitive true skin that lies beneath the scarf skin, of which the blister
consists, from the air, which renders it excessively painful.
The best and readiest dry materials are flour or cotton, or cotton wadding; the wet
are, spirits of turpentine, spirits of wine or good brandy, lime water and oil, lime water
and milk, milk alone, or bread and milk poultice ; and these wet applications must be
made of sufficient warmth to feel comfortable to the finger, but not hot. Flour is
best dusted on with a dredger, and should be thickly strewed over the injured part
and some little distance beyond it. A cambric or thin linen handkerchief well floured,
should be wrapped round it. Cotton should be carefully pulled, so as to be free from
lumps or knots, but cotton-wadding is better ; the unglazed side should be put next
to the skin, in three or four thicknesses, and the whole confined with a roller.
Spirits of turpentine, or of wine, or any other spirits, heated by placing in a cup-full of
warm water which the Anger can bear, must be gently smeared over with a broad web
of a feather, or a large camel's hair brush this should be continued ten or fifteen
minutes, after which, lint or soft linen thickly spread with a liniment of spirits of turpentine and yellow basilicon, should be applied and confined with a roller ; the dressing should not he removed for twenty-four hours;- then the part washed over with
proof spirit, and the liniment as before re-applied immediately. The third dressing,
twenty-four hours after, should have the liniment composed of the basilicon and camphorated oil; or, if this should be too sharp, calamine or zinc ointment, thickly spread
on linen, away be applied and continued. This is known as Kentish's treatment, and
is much practised in the coal districts.
If the scald or burn be very extensive, lime water and linseed oil is a most excellent
application. One part of lime water must be mixed with two parts of oil, and stirred round
quickly with the hand ; into this a sheet or large piece of linen is plunged and thoroughly
soaked, then wrung out lightly, and quickly wrapped round the limb or body. Lime
water and milk in equal proportions, or the milk alone, may be used in like manner.
Bread and milk poultice, thinly spread, is also q eery good application, and in burns,
where the skin has been much charred or roas4441,4"rbAist application irditi the

beginning.
In about forty hours, if the blister liii as if its contti

must be let t with a point of a Large
of inflammation round its edge, the we
needle, or three or four snips with the scissors ; it shout hen be pressed down with
-,-;
a wad of lint, with a dressing of simple wax and oil.
When the true skin has been destroyed, a linseed poirla.dik must be applied and continued till the dead part or slough come away : this must then be dressed with calamine
or zinc cerate, and rolled; or it may be protected by sifting flour, or starch, powdered
chalk, or calamine powder, repeated two or three times a day, if need be, till a thick
crust be formed.
Burns with lime must be treated with vinegar, which converts it into a harmless
substance, and then a poultice or a dressing of ointment and a roller must be resorted
to. Quicklime in the eye must be washed with vinegar and water ; inflammation is
sure to follow, and leeches may be applied, and diligent bathing with warm poppy
water or simple warm water; a smart purge must also be given.
BROKEN BONESWith a broken arm, the least painful method is to put the fore-arm
at a right angle with the upper in a broad sling, which will contain it from the elbow to
the points of the lingers ; walking will be attended with less pain than being moved in a
carriage of any kind. For a broken leg or thigh : a hurdle, a door, or a shutter, covered
with straw, coats, or blankets, should be laid by the patient's side, and he gently lifted
upon it ; let the sound limb be brought close to the broken one, and tie them both
firmly together with two or three handkerchiefs, and place a pad of long straw along
the outside of the limb to keep it steady ; take care to lay the broken bone as near
as possible in its natural direction, and remember, that if by careless or rough handling
an end of the broken bone be thrust through the skin, the mischief is seriously augmented
Broken limbs should not be set, that is, bound up with roller, splints, and pads, for the
first three or four days, as, for some hours, the part continues swelling ; at first, then,
lay the broken bone in as comfortable a posture as possible, and as nearly as can be
in its natural direction, with perhaps a single splint, lightly bound, to keep it steady.
A broken collar-bone, or broken ribs, however, require immediate attention ; this
latter accident may be known, if at every breathing, a stitch or prick in the side of the
chest be felt, and if the hand be placed on this part, and the breath be drawn in deeply, the ends of the bone will be felt moving on each other and giving a sort of crackling
feel ; a flannel or linen roller, about six yards long and two hands-breadth wide, must
be wound tightly round the chest, so as to prevent any motion of the ribs in breathing,
which must be performed by the midriff alone ; this renewed twice during the month
will suffice. lithe ribs be broken on both sides, or the breast bone, the bandage will
do mischief : there is little for it but complete rest, and such accidents are eery
dangerous. If the collar-bone be broken, place high up under the arm-pit, a p..1
as big as two fists, and twice as long. and secure it there ; secure the elbow to the side
with a bandage, and place the elbow and the fore-arm in a short sling, which lifts up
the shoulder, and should be tied on the neck on the sound side. The bandages must
be worn a month.
An arm broken above the elbow may be thus treated. The immediate swelling
7- - ,rx.-.7-77,7FTF

36
after the accident having subsided, the limb must be placed with the fore-arm bent
at a right angle with the upper. The hand and arm are to be lightly swathed in a
roller, the turns of which should over-lap each other,and be continued a little above
the elbow ; and then a long roller well soaked in gum water or stiff starch may be
swathed round the upper arm, from the elbow to the armpit. The limb must then be
laid carefully on a pillow, in, as nearly as possible, its natural position ; and in the course
of a few hours the gum or starch dries, and a tough, unyielding, well-fhting case encloses
the arm. and rarely requires being meddled with till it be removed at the end of a month.
An arm broken below the elbow, if but one of the bones be broken, may be treated
in the same way. If both bones be broken, two padded splints. are requited, extending
from the tips of the fingers to the bend of the elbow in front, and to the point of the
elbow behind. The fore-arm is now bent on the elbow ; the splints applied, one
before, the other behind, and both bound firmly to it with a roller, from the fingers up
to the bend of the elbow. The arm then resting on its back is to be put into a sling ;
and the splints must be kept on a month.
ss
A broken leg, in most cases, caq be managed easily and well by merely rolling it,
from the middle of the foot to the knee, in a long bandage, well soaked in thick starch
or gum wateis, which is preferable. The limb is
laid on its outside upon a smooth
pillow, andllttle further remains to be done till the end of the month, when it may be
removed.
A broken thigh, though a much mire serious accident than any yet mentioned, may be
managed. ,quite as easily, and, in many cases, if the person will be quiet, without any

N . The patient must be placed on his back upon a
firm Wass, laid on a'
"tied Frame, as the sacking sinks with the
weight of the body re for some s. Two thick pads are to be made,
one to cover the whol inside of th nd knee ; the other, the inside of the
ankle of the same lira.
Is limbs must now he laid close together, in the same
straight line as the bid's.
;ea-the heels, with the toes right upwards, and the calves
flat on the mattress. One, the body must be kept immoveable by one person,
who grasps the hips with lii= o hands. A second person then takes hold of the broken
limb with both hands, just above the ankle, and gently and steadily draws it down without disturbing its position, whilst a third places the knee-pad between the two knees.
and the ankle-pad between the ankle: The gentle pulling being continued, the sound
knee is brought close to that of the broken limb, but a little above it, so that it rests against
the jutting inside of the joint, and then, both being kept close together. a pad, about as
broad as the hand,"must be turned round both legs, directly below both knees, and around
this a roller, about three yards long, must be tenderly. carefully, and tightly wound, so as
to prevent one knee slipping from the other. Bath ankles are next to be tied together in
like manner, care being taken that that of the sound is above that of the broken limb.
A small pad is now to be put between the insides of both feet, and this completes the
whole business ; which, however simple, has been attended eith as many good cures as
under the more difficult and complicated treatment.
Broken bones with wounds of the soft parts running down to them, or compound fractures,
are very serious accidents, and are dangerous in proportion to the size of the wound,
and the tearing and bruising of the soft parts. Where medical assistance cannot be
obtained, the great object in the treatment is to make the case a simple fracture, by
healing the wound as quickly as possible, which should be attempted by uniting the
edges of the wound by bringing them lightly together with strips of sticking plaster,
and the limb should be covered with a light, cold, wet linen cloth, repeatedly moistened
by squeezing a wet sponge over it. If, happily, the wound heal soon, much of the dreaded danger ceases, and after a lew days the accident is to be treated precisely as if
there had been no wound.
Dislocation of the arm into the arm-pit may be thus reduced.Let the patient and the
person who is to pull the arm into place, both lie down on the floor on their backs, side
by side, but in contrary directions. The operator then places a towel into the patient's
arm-pit on which he plants his naked foot between the chest and the arm, using the right
foot or the left, as the tight or left shoulder is displaced. He then grasps the patient's
wrist with both hands, and pulls the arm down steadily ; at the same time he tells the
patient to make some little change in his position ; and thus inducing him to call some
other muscles into motion, the resistance is for a moment suspended, and at that
moment the operator pulls a little more vigorously, and generally the bone returns to
its socket with a more or less loud snap,
DROwNINO.In carrying a person apparently drowned, care should be taken to keep
the head a little higher than the trunk ; if a house be near, let him be carried to it with
all expedition, stripped, and placed between the blankets, which may have been warmed
whilst stripping the body. If at a distance from a house, and the sun be powerful,
he had better be at once stripped, and laid fully exposed to it, in such dry clothes as
37
may be procurable ; the body should be wiped dry, the mouth cleared of the clammy
froth, the head and shoelders a little raised, heat applied to the pit of the stomach and
soles of the feet, and rubbing with a coarse flannel, or a jacket incessantly, over the
body and limbs, but especially over the chest. The heat may be furnished by bottles of
hot water, by hot bricks, sand, or ashes in woollen stockings, by a pan of warm coals,
taking care it be not too hot, or even by immersion in a warm bath, if it can be had.
Endeavour to get air out of and into the lungs, by pressing the chest and belly, but not
so as to interfere with the rubbing, which is the principal thing to be relied on. This
rubbing may be continued for some hours ; there is a case on record of a person recovering when no sign of revival had appeared till the rubbing had been continued eight hours
and a-half Irmo the time of the accident. As early as possible, warm tea or weak wine
and water,should be carefully given, taking especial care that

CURE FOIL SNAKE BITES.
The following method of treatment for the Bites of Snakes. Scorpions, Centipedes
and other venomous creatures. has been extracted from the Sr/ney Morning Herned,
and it has been considered advisable to adopt it without alteration, in justice to the subject
and the writer.
IPECACUANHA, A CURE FOR VENOMOUS BITES.YOU will oblige me by inserting the
accompanying two cases, the result of the successful application of ipecacuanha, to the
bites of venomous animals. One of my servants while bathin g, felt something run into
his foot, and on putting his hand into the water to ascertain what it wills, received a
similar injury on that member, but he succeeded in seizing the animal, which proved
to be a fish about four inches long, armed with two processes of hone close to the abdominal fin. The natives call the fish Singhee.-1 saw the man an hour after the receipt of
the wounds; he then complained of severe headache, had a hot skin, and general fever;
the hand and arm, also the leg and foot, were very much swollen, and excessively
painful, the pain shooting upwards ; the lids of both eyes were also very much swollen.
I tidied the ipecacuanha powder with water to the consistence of mustard, and applied
it to the injured pans; in two minutes the pain had ceased, in an hour after the fever had
left him, and in the course of two days the swelling in all the parts had entirely subsided.
I was induced to try the above remedy from having applied it with invariable success in
several cases in the bite of the centipede. I was indebted to this hint to one of your
correspondents, some three years ago, who wrote of the success that had invariably
attended the application of ipecacuanha to the bites of the centipede. The second
case was that of a palkee bearer, who was bitten on the right foot by a snake; but,
owing to its being at night, the animal escaped. When I saw him, sometime after the
receipt of the injury, he complained of the leg feeling heavy, and a gnawing pain
38
throughout the whole of the limb : it was cold to the touch, and swollen. The man
was suffering from great depression of the vital powers, and prostration of strength. I
gave him a tablespoonful of sal 'volatile in a little water ; and on examining the foot, discovered the two punctures where the fangs had entered. I scarified the part freely, and
put the whole of the foot into hot water, but it did not bleed freely, I therefore applied the cupping glasses to the calf of the leg in 'two places. In a quarter of an hour I gave
him another tablespoonful of sal volatile, still keeping the foot in hot water ; the heaviness
of the leg was less, but the gnawing sensation continued. Three-quarters of an hour
after I first saw him 1 applied the ipecacuanha paste ; in less than five minutes the man
told me his foot was quite light, and then the gnawing pain had entirely left it. The man
remained in my verandah two hours, and had not any return of pain ; he then went to
his house in the neighbourhood, and the following day I heard he was free from pain,
but that the leg was stilt swollen. For three days he applied goulnrd water, and in ten
days came and made Me a salaam, perfectly well. The scarificatiow had not quite
healed, but the leg was of the natural size. H. J. THORNTON, Assist. Surgeon.--fiangkong Gazette.
SNAKE BITES.
To the Edittrs of Me Sydney Morning Herold.
iligei.EmEN,The kind a and.humanity with which you some months since made
endetory of the powder of ipecacuanha as a remedy
for a commenu;ati
venomous animals, lead me once more to
o
the bites ofsnari
e same topic. My former paper was simply
aph
request a corner foeistai r pa
ledical Officer at Hongkong. Mr. Thornton,
a copy of a letter from 4he Governme
detailing with great&learneos the curativ effects of a simple poultice of the powder of
ipecacuanha appliee wesiffels of the above description.
The account atildiffAte me so satisfactory, as to lead me to resolve to seize the first
opportunity of testing the efficacy of the drug. No such occasion, however, presented
itself until last Saturday, when , an industrious neighbour was bitten in the foot while
collecting wood in the adjoining bush. She returned home with her leg swollen to an
extraordinary size;and suffering such an excruciating pain as to be prevented from attending her ordinary-avocations. I did not hear of the accident till Monday, when, on inquiry,
finding that the symptons were in nowise abated, and that no medical assistance had
been called in, a quantity of powder was sent for, and applied by an intelligent person
in the form of a poultice, as directed by Mr. Thornton. On Tuesday morning the swelling
had in a great measure subsided, the pain bad ceased, and she was able to resume her
usual work, and on Wednesday she was well.
The favourable impressions made by Mr. Thornton's letter were greatly confirmed by
this case, and I think it ought to be generally known for the comfort and information of
all who are exposed to such accidents, who are not a few. It will be generally a matter
of difficulty to ascertain the character of the reptile inflicting the wound, as it is very
likely to escape without detection ; but if the drug shall be found deserving of the good
character it has acquired in Hongkong, and which I am venturing to lay some claim
for it here, it has the recommendation of being (as it is stated) effectual in the attacks
of all the venomous creatures with which our bush is infested, and which add so materially
to the hazards to which infant life is especially exposed, even in our cottage gardens
and grounds.
It may be used in the simple form of a poultice, made without a moment's delay, and
without the demand of any skill on the part of the person applying it; and moreover it
does not interfere with or supersede any more scientific applications which may be adopted
where medical assistance can be procured ; but it appears to be capable of very salutary
application when that assistance is at a distance or unattainable.
Since writing the above, another case of a snake bite has occurred, in which the wound
was subjected to medical treatment with a successful result ; the powder was also applied, but it would be impossible to say whether any share in the cure could be ascribed
to it.
I beg to add, that I am a mere reporter of facts ; not having the honor of any professional medical character, I should not be justified in offering any opinion on the subject.

STINGS, ETC.
(Communicated by W. G. Ball, Esq.)
"In connection with the useful remedies for the cure of Snake bites contained in p.p.
188 and 189 of the Almanac for the current year, vou may possibly like to know, that
the natives of this Island use a still more ready and simple remedy for stings from every
39
description of reptile,viz., the common lime or shell-chunam. as used by them to chew
with their beetle. I have seen scores of instances in others, and experienced on several
occasions on my own person, that a little chunam made into a paste with simple water,
and applied to the punctured part immedialely, is an infallible and instantaneous cure
for stings From Centipedes, and Scorpions; and have been assured by natives, that it is
equally effectual in the stings of the Tarantula, and all other reptiles, except the " Cobra,"
the "Tic Polonga," and one or two other kinds of Snakes. Simple as this remedy is,
and well known as it is throughout every part of the Island to the natives, I should refrain
from calling attention to it. were it not that I have known, and met several Europeans
who had never heard of it."

DYSENTERY.
The following letter From Dr, Maxwell, Garrison Surgeon of Trichinopoly, is republished from the Examiner, into whose columns it was copied from the Madras Spectator.
After alluding to a report of his own death, the writer says: " Several other deaths of
old friends reported at the same time in the papers, I would fain hope may turn out as
unfounded as my own,but I fear this is a vein aspiration ; they must be too true,
especially those in Ceylon, where it is reported Dysentery is making sad work amongst
the European residents ; - three of whom have already died in the Central Province.
What can be the cause of this unprecedented, and almosteceptantly recurring mortaky
from that disease in Ceylon ? Is it exposure or neglect,.or the absence of Medical
assistance, or what?
I consider Dysentery very easily cured, if,treated in time. I have seen much of it
amongst all classes of men. Endemic dysentery and fever I consper one and the same
disease, as Sydenham did long ago. I treat them both on the same principle and with
the same medicines : and if the disease is treated in the same way in Ceylon, then I
can only say it must be a fearful form of that scourge indeed, which appears to baffle
medical skill.
I have been lately treating, and am at this moment, treating cases of that disease of the
worst description.
The results of my experience I was at the very time sending, and am still sending, to
Europe ; when my death however was reported, and my attention diverted to its contradiction. It occurred to me that 1 could not do better than publish here also, the results
of my experience : both as the shortest way of shewing that 1 was not only not dead,
but even not asleep, as well as that it would prove of the greatest benefit and assistance
to the poor sufferers in Ceylon.
My experience, then, in "ENDEMIC DYSENTERY," may be considered as condensed
in the following case, which occurred only a few days ago. G. C. age 30was in good
health up to yesterday morning, since which he has been constantly purged, with griping and straining and passing of blood and mucus and fluid, like the washings of meat
cannot assign any cause.

.. a Few drops of each.
Cinnamon and Peppermint
Hot water a wine glassful.

In the evening the motions were less frequent and less bloody.
The dose was repeated.
The diet was chicken broth.
The drink lemonade.
In the morning the motions were nearly natural.
The dose was repeated.
In the evening the patient was convalescent.
N. B. In cases still more severe and rapid, the above draught must be repeated
oftener, according to the urgency of the case. The poor and those who cannot get
quinine, must treat themselves, or be treated, in the manner 1 have related.
My friends must consider themselves indebted to you, for their having thus quickly
received the above information through your Journal, instead of via Europe ; and I cannot
do less, in their behalf, than beg your acceptance of my works on these diseases published in 1838. Not that you may offer remarks on them, which they dont require, and
1 would rather not, but that you may have them for reference or for a knowledge of
what has been written. They must, like all other works, contain numerous errors ; but
the structure remains-1 mean that my views and treatment have not changed. Should
40
any of my friends or any one else wish for further particulars on this head, I shall be
most happy to afford it either by letter or through the medium of your paper, if you
will afford it a place.
1 beg to remain, dear Sir,
Your obedient and obliged,

THE CHOLERA.
Brutal OP HEALTH. The fifth notification from the Board of Health earnestly repeats
the cautions previously given as to diet and clothing and states that the articles of food,
where there are the means of choice, should be solid and nutritious, and such as tend to
maintain a moderate costiveness in the bowels. Every day's experience shews the urgent
necessity of instant attention to the slightest degree oidiarrhcea, as being the most certain
premonitory symptom. W here medical assistance cannot be immediately procurer', the
same medicines tormerly recommended by the Board are again set forth, viz., for an
adult, from 10 to 20 grains of confection of opium, with two tablespoonsfull of peppermint
water, in a draught composed of one ounce of chalk mixture, with 10 to 15 grains of the
aromatic confection. From 3 to 10 drops of laudanum, and from half a drachm to a
drachm of the tincture of catechu. That suck a dose should be taken where there is any
degree of relaxation in the bowels. The caution is also repeated against the use of cold
purgative medicines, such as salts and seidlitz powders and all drastic purgatives, such
as colocynth and aloes. If persons are however suddenly seized with cold, giddiness,
vomiting, and cramps, the proper course is to use warm applications of every description,
and to promote perspiration as much as possible with white wine whey, a teaspoonful' of
sal volatile in hot water, &c.
The following prescription. said to have been used with great success in Cholera cases,
is reprinted from the Colombo Observer.
CHOLERA PRESCRIPTION. I oz. of camphor dissolved in 6 OM of spirits of wine Two
( 2 ) drops for a dose. not more.The patient to be put to bed immediately and to
take two drops three times at intervals cd five minutes on a little pounded sugar in a tea
spoon full of water.After he has had three doses, an interval of ten or fifteen minutes
to be allowed to elapse ; then repeat in the same manner until the patient has taken ten
or twelve drops in allwhen he will most likely fall asleep and perspire freely.The bed
clothes must not be heavy but warmand nothing else must be taken while he is taking
the camphor drop, except cold water, otherwise the effect will be neutralized.II the
patient should wake feverish, a dose of Gregory's powder to be administered in peppermint water or sal volatile ; he must not exert himself for some time and be particularly
careful not to expose himself to cold, and live on broths, &c., for a few days.
The following extracts from a letter addressed by the Rev. C. Caulfeild of Creagh
Rectory, Ski bbereen, to one of the Ministers of the English Government, and subsequently
Published in the London and local Newspapers, is re-printed in the hope that it may
prove useful.
" As a clergyman, I have had many opportunities of trying the remedy ; and in no case
did the patient die, the recovery being always speedy and perfect. I make no apology
for venturing to address your Lordship, as the great importance of the subject will be,
I trust, deemed sufficient.
"The preventative is simply a small tea spoonful' of powdered charcoal, taken three
or four times a week in a cup of coffee. or other vehicle in the morning. When attacked
with Cholera, a mixture of an ounce of charcoal, an ounce of laudanum, and an ounce
of brandy or other spirit, well shaken together, may be given : a tea-spoonfull every five
minutes. In halt' an hour I have known this effectually relieve and stay the disease. As
the patient becomes better, the mixture may be given at longer intervals. 1 have known
a patient in the blue stage, and collapsed, perfectly recover in a few hours.
The charcoal was tried as a preventative on a large plantation in the Mauritius, and
not a single individual out of 800 was attacked with Cholera.
" Should your Lordship think it well to make this simple remedy known, it may save
the lives of thousands, now that this dreaded disease has visited our land.
" I have the honor to be, your Lordship's very obedient and faithful servant,
"Gammas CAULFSTI.D."

Treatment of severe and especially collapsed cases of CHOLERA, by Dr. W. G.
MAXWELL. Extracted from the" Home News" of Septestater 10, 1855,
HayIsm observed in-the HOME NEWS sad accounts of the ravages of cholera at Varna,
both among the soldiers on shore and amongst the men of-war, of its continuance even
after the embarkation of the troops, and of their almost having fought the battle of the
Alma while many of them were being more or less prostrated by the disease, I venture
to offer the following observations in the hope of directing attention to a more uniform
and successful treatment of the collapsed forms of the great Leviathan pestilence,
was formerly, and long, in the habit of treating all kinds of cholera alike, whether
mild or severe, whether pulseless or not pulseless. Some of the equivocal cases recovered, but the majority of severe cases, and all the collapsed and pulseless cases, died. I
now began to perceive that I had all along been deceiving myself; I had made no distinction between the different types and forms and stages of the disease, but had grouped all the cases together, the most mild with the collapsed ; making it appear that I had
been successful in an unprecedented degree. Many of the cases I had also not seen, but
trusted to report. The true state of the case therefore was, that I had scarcely cured a
case of severe cholera, and certainly none of true collapsed cases. The question then
arose, what shall I do now ? I still fondly clung to the hope of finding a specific. Nostrums were to be had at every turning. Every one had an infallible cure, urging me to
try them. Inundated with these, and failing also myself, with the hundreds of remedies
I continued to try, and having observed the fact recorded, that pulseless collapsed cases
had recovered without medicine, I determined to witness one of these, and, in the mean
time, to discontinue the use of all medicines in these collapsed cases.
I was called to see a case of pulseless collapsed cholera, in a female aged 12. At my
next visit, the friends showed me another case, the grandfather of the girl ; he had been
ill for two days and nights, and had been laid out to die, in a separate place. Seeing
the effect of my treatment on their daughter, whose case they themselves had considered
hopeless, they resolved to try the same with their father, whom they now considered in
a fair way of recovery. He had still a collapsed appearance, but there was an almost
imperceptible pulse at the wrist, and some heat returning to the surface. At my visit
next day he walked into the house to meet me.
There was now no doubt in my mind that the main cause of death in the majority of
my pulseless collapsed cases of cholera was my injudicious and indiscriminate treatment
with narcotics, &c. I therefore determined to abandon the principles of treatment I had
long adopted, and to follow the advice of Sydenham and other old authors, viz., to support the powers of life with nourishing diluents ; not to overpower ( as I had been doing)
the already enfeebled heart with narcotics.
It appeared at last, then, evident to me that the blood in cholera was not only losing
its watery and saline portions, but was at the same time losing, and had lost much of its
nitrogenous and non-nitrogenous compounds, and, with these, the elements of respiration
and motion ; that is, the elements of combustion, or " fuel," or what we all know by the
common word, support. By the time, too, that a cholera patient is generally first seen,
he has lost many pints of fluids, and these more or less in a state of decomposition, thus
shewing the state of the blood ; the blood has also lost its supply of nourishment of the
last 12 hours at least, and it has lost also that which it would have had on the day of
the attacka moment's reflection will chew what a loss it has sustained ; in addition to
all this, the remaining blood is itself in a state of change ; its constituents are breaking
up into new compounds inimical to combustion ( respiration, life); it becomes more or
less acid ;* gaseous compounds begin to be devolved, and-if support (fuel) is not soon
supplied, the pulse lops, and the body becomes cold and clammy (exactly, so far like an
artificial engine whi7li stops and becomes cold) for want of water and fuel, both of which
are contained in nourishing drinks.
Now, in cases of exhaustion or starvation, we do not give opium and narcotics to extinguish, as we know they would, the little remains of life (just as a flickering lamp is
extinguished with too much oil), we give the natural nourishing drinks of whatever is
presented to us by the bountiful hand of Providence. We give milk and gruel and
jellies, and tea and whey, and barley-water and conjee, and arrow-root and sugar, and
thicken and mutton-broth, and beef-tea, &c.
* Observed 1.) we in dissections of fatal eases of Cholera in Europeans and Natives the veins half
full of gases.
42
Yet how infinitely more, I thought, must these nourishing drinks be required in cholera,
where there is nalf only far greater and more rapid debility and exhaustion, .but where
there is also a constant drain, and the blood itself in a state of decomposition. It was
also evident to me that no medicine could supply the place of this natural nourishment
to the system, and therefore till that nourishment, that support, that fuel, was supplied,
the pulse would not return, nor warmth to the surface, but that life would continue to
ebb till death ensued.
Reasoning after this manner, and while collapsed cases were still continuing to die
under my then treatment, I determined (as I have said) at once to abandon it, and, to
follow Sydenham whom I had so long neglected.
It was not long before I had an opportunity ; an outbreak of cholera occurred in my
immediate vicinity, and 57 pulseless and collapsed cases came under treatment. Several
of them bad been treated before with opium and other medicines ; most of them were
in the last stage ; and most of the patients were in poor circumstances. I commenced
the above system in every case as soon as I was called, and gave whatever drink I could
get ready first ; while that was being given, another kind was being prepared ; they were
generally given as hot as possible, and as often and as much as the patient wished, and
they were relished greatly ; the patients had, generally speaking, been drinking cold water
for hours before I saw them. In some cases, the pulse returned in an hour, in other
cases, not till after 12 hours ; in an old lady of 70 or 90, the pulse returned in an hour
after drinking three or four basins of chicken broth ; in another case of a delicate lad
who had been ill for 12 hours, the pulse did not return till after other 12 hours, during
which he had taken the broth of five chickens : in other pulseless collapsed cases, of
two day's duration, wheat gruel was the only drink given and the pulse returned.
Of the 57 cases, 47 recovered and 10 died.
Under my former treatment, all these 57 collapsed, pulseless hopeless cases must have
sunk.
I will not enter here into any details, which would confuse or distract attention from
the main object ; suffice it to say, that the above treatment must be continued till a copious warm perspiration takes place, which is the favourable crisis. Therefore remember
this, and this too, that no medicine, no nostrum, no specific (so-called), can produce this;
nothing, in short, but that pabulum vitas, that support, that natural fuel, supplied with
an unsparing hand in an almost continued and uninterrupted stream.
The disease having terminated in a profuse, warm, critical perspiration, there will be
little or no consecutive fever or sequelm. The medical detail of this subject will be
considered fully in the medical journals ; suffice it here to remark, that if there has been
neglect on the patient's part, or mismanagement on the part of the physician, and consecutive fever should have come on, then the same principles of treatment must be pursued, to produce, if possible, the natural cure, which is here also a profuse perspiration.
Should not this soon occur, and the poisonous grass -gteen bile not be eliminated and
freely passed, then calomel with the vegetable bitters, &c., will here produce marvellous
effects, if judiciously used, and aided by other means, indicated by any cerebral or other
symptoms.
From the general tenor of the foregoing observations, the deduction or inference at
the present crisis is plain, via., that a Soyer should accompany each corps to the field,
that he should have an ample organised establishment under him for the supply of refreshing drinks (quite independent of that for the supply of rations.) Let the soldier
know that he can have at any time when exhausted, a refreshing beverage of smoking
tea or coffee, &c. &c., and return again, with renewed energy, to the field; let the sick
too, that fall act, be at once treated as I have described, and then, and not till then, will
the mortality be lessened, and the miseries of these battle fields assuaged.
In conclusion, I need scarcely remark, that not only is a system,,ef this kind indispensable to the soldier in the field of battle, but equally so in crowded towns and cities,
when cholera breaks out amongst its poorest inhabitants.
