OE EE OE at THE DAILY EXAMINER, Sir William's Opinion. The following important testimony, culled from the evidence given before the Select Committee of the House of Lords, on Intemperance, in 1877, by Sir William | Gall, is well worthy of being kept in per- petual remembrance. The great physician has just passed away from amongst us, but his impressive words ars still bearing fruit. Sir William having said that he believed there was still an error with regard to the value of hel in disease, his examin- ition was continued thus by the Archbishop f \ i) satiny ¢Uestion } sice TR Will you state to the Committee wrat that error 1s Answer—I think the error prevalent is that aleohol cures the disease, whereas the disease runs its physiological course irrespec- tive of the alcohol. The advantage of alcohol is, if it has an advantage, its effects upon the nervous system, for the time being rendering the patient more indifferent to the proces?es roing on. I am disposed to believe, although I think we could not do without alcohol as a A Chance to Make Money.

Q.—Many people believe that intellectual | work cannot be half so well done without wine or alcohol? ! A.—There I should join issue at once. Q.—You would hold the very opposite ? A.—I should hold the opposite. Q.—Would you say that a moderately tem- perate person might be benefitted by a slight ise of wine or alcohol? A.—I should hold the opposite as regards the intellect. All aleohol, and all things of an alcoholic nature, injure the nerve tissues if not altogether; yon may ; pro tempore, quicken the operations, but you do not :m- prove them. Q.—Have you known cases, may I ask, where these the effects of alcohol have been quite manifest, although there has not been any outrageous drinking or obvious excess ? A.—That is very common. I should say that one of the commonest things in our society is that people are injured by drink without being drunkards, It goes on so quietly that it is very difficult to observe, even Q.—The effects are marked and distinct to your professional eye ? . A.—Perfectly, although in many cases even . i's nearest friends will not know it. { might meation that on one occasion I was to see a medical man who was 80 injured that he was yellow as a lemon; he itate of delirium and his ystem was saturated to the last degree with sicohol ; 1 was surprised that I should be sent for, bat on coming downstairs I said to his ‘I need not trouble you by saying She Tha ae sti vas 1 a fremens, wile, what is the matter with your husband.” Going West.
