For hypophosphitee—Dr. Flint, of Boston, Dr. Bigelow, of Paris. Against by pophosphites— Dr, Leuis, of Paris. Indifferent or doubtful—Drs. Bowdiich, Ua- bot, Moleschotf. For cod-liver oil—Cabot, (moderate. ) i i Against cod-liver oil—Drs. Louis and Bige- | low. Some think Jough’s is the best preparation | of the cod-liver oil. Dr. Moleschot? thinks him + a humbug and a liar, his oil good for nothing. Bigelow recommends Bordeaux wine; Mole. schott, Malaga before Bordeaux; Bigelow and Cabot, Jackson and Bowditch, whisky, brandy, ete.; Moleschott, pilled barley. | P FFICIAL. | Headquarters Military District of Washi st. } Washington, D.
