The American reformed horse book, a treatise on the causes, symptoms, and cure of all the diseases of the horse, including every disease peculiar to America, also breeding, rearing, and management . lime-water, oil, solutions of aloes, etc., havebeen injected by clyster up the rectum, and which practice is moatto be depended on for the ejection of ascarides when in the rectum.This practice of washing away the mucus of the intestine, andthus to deprive the intestine of the secretion given for its protec-tion, is not to be recommended, though oil, for this end, would beharmless. Strong purges are given with the same intent, whichmay remove them also from the whole alimentary track. Reme-dies have likewise been exhibited to destroy them within thenody, by the mechanical irritation of their spiculi, under whichview tin, brass, iron, and pewter are thought remedial. The In-dian caustic barley and Indian pink are reputed vermifugesagainst the teres and ascaris. The oil of turpentine has also beenstrongly recommended as an excellent general vermifuge; but, except for the destruction of the taenia, or tape-worm, it oertainljioes not appear to deserve that character.* • Blaines Ontlinei.

Inflammation of the Kidneys (Nephkitis). A NEPHRITIC affection is often mistaken for what somapersons term sprain across the kidneys (lumbar sprain).It is a mistake of some importance, from the fact that when sprainor strain is suspected, people are apt to resort to the use of irri-tating embrocations or liniments, which nv ? ao much harm, astheir action is to augment heat and pain, which, in case of ne-phritis, is to be avoided. Symptoms.—Hard and accelerated pulse; quickened respiration, indicative of pain; back,
