CORRESPONDENCE. 
Monthly Homoeopathic 
Beview, Juno 1, 1873. 
German edition (the only one I know), gives that symptom of 
natrum muriaticum in full, and as a marked one too ; and so 
does even Possart, in his " Charakteristiks;" and so does 
Jahr! 
Where has " A Disciple of Hahnemann" been taught? 
I remain, Gentlemen, your obedient servant, 
Hahnemann's personal friend, and 
His PUPIL. 
May 6th. 
[We have made some enquiries as to the authenticity of the 
statement made in this letter, and with the following result:— 
In the edition of HAHNEMANN'S Chronic Diseases, the fourth part 
of which (containing the proving of natr. muriaticum) was pub- 
lished in 1830, no such symptoms as that described by Dr. 
Cameron is mentioned. It first appears in JAHR'S Total Ueber- 
sicht, published in 1843, having attached to it a mark indicating 
that it was present in a patient who was taking natrum muriati- 
cum for other symptoms, and that this disappeared along with 
the rest. POSSABT probably copied it from JAHR, who inserted 
it without any sufficient ground for doing so. What edition of 
the Chronic Diseases our correspondent alludes to we do not know, 
but we have always understood that the one we have quoted is 
the earliest and most reliable.—Eds. M. H. E.J 
CLINICAL THERMOMETERS. 
To the Editors of the Monthly Homoeopathic Review. 
Gentlemen,—It has several times been my fortune to have a 
clinical thermometer spoiled when left with a patient, through 
the index being mistaken for an accidentally-separated portion 
of mercury, and consequently shaken into the bulb. 
I have worked out a method of renewing the index which may 
or may not be that in use by the makers, but which answers 
very well. 
On observing a clinical thermometer a small chamber will be 
seen at the upper end. This contains some air. A little air 
separates the index from the bulk of the mercury. 
To form a new index proceed as follows:— 
1. Dip the bulb into boiling water till the air chamber is 
nearly filled with mercury. 
2. Remove the thermometer, and hold it, bulb upward, in one 
hand, till a very small portion of mercury—sufficient only for 
the new index—is left in the air chamber. 
3. Strike the edge of the hand holding the thermometer 
smartly down upon the edge of the other hand, so as to jerk a 
minute bubble of air through the mercury in the air chamber. 
This establishes a division between the new index which is

Review, June 1,1873.

left in the air chamber and the rest of the mercury, which con- 
tinues to contract. 
4. Force the mercury in the air chamber into the stem by 
heating that end of the instrument in a spirit lamp—a good 
deal of heat, perhaps 300° or 400°, is necessary. 
If the index is the right size the operation is complete ; if too 
large, shake the new index down into the bulb, and begin again. 
A little manipulative tact is required ; but I found the third 
trial succeed. I am, &c, •^Μ. FREEMAN.

NOTICES TO CORRESPONDENTS. 
°,fi We cannot undertake to return rejected manuscripts. 
DR. ACKWORTH ON COUNT MATTEL—Dr. Ackworth, in circulating 
the letter he sent to us for publication—the substance of all that was 
of any importance in which we published in our last issue—has, we 
feel, done more to justify the course we thought it right to pursue 
than we could have expected him to do. We are quite sure that our 
readers who may have seen Dr. Ackworth's printed pamphlet—and if 
any have not done so we daresay that its author will be glad of the 
opportunity of sending them copies—will thank us for not perpetuating 
such an effusion in our pages. 
The correspondent who supplied us with the materials for the para- 
graph which has so disturbed Dr. Ackworth's usual serenity, begs us 
to contradict the statement that there was any correspondence of an 
angry character between her and Mattei. It was not until after his 
last visit that she was convinced of the unfounded nature of his preten- 
sions. Her last letter to him was one of anxious entreaty to him to 
visit her, and expressed her entire dependence upon him. The sister— 
or, rather, sister-in-law—whose illness Mattei said prevented him from 
attending to his patient, lived near Bologna, and during her illness 
Mattei was at his own house, at Riola, -25 miles away ! He arrived 
at her house only the evening preceding her death. He saw his 
patient on the following morning, and did not at this visit display 
any great amount of affection of the " sister dearly loved," who, in 
reality, had sorely offended him by refusing to take " anti-pettorale," 
or some such stuff, and by relying upon the aid of a properly educated 
physician. It was not until after this event that Mattei treated our 
correspondent's letters and telegrams with the neglect of which she 
complained. 
Dr. Ackworth, to judge by his " added comment" in his pamphlet, 
regards our expose of Count Mattei as a personal attack upon himself 
7-as an attempt to " hold him up as false !" This mode of rejoinder 
is as absurd as it is weak. Our only reference to Dr. A. was in the 
opening paragraph. We never regarded him as responsible for Mattei's 
statements or misstatements. He may be responsible for having 
proved himself unusually credulous—that we can believe; but that 
he has been false, we neither asserted nor believed. It is deeply to 
be regretted that a gentleman who, like Dr. Ackworth, has for many 
long years enjoyed a reputation for literary culture and scholarship, 
as well as for a fair knowledge of his profession, should have so readily 
become the dupe of this foreign quack.
