Some writera claim that the canine race are afflicted with almost a8 great a variety of diseases a3 man himself. The most prevalent complaints are asthma, biindness, sore eyes, cancer, colic, cough, fits, Inflamed lungs, mange and the Most terrible and fatal madness, or, to use a more modern word, hydrophobia. A writer who presumes that he 1s well conversant with this importsnt subject, having attentively ob- served Guring lis whole’ process more than two hundred cases and dissected nearly a hun- dred bodies of degs that dled of the malady, tells come Inferesting facts about hydro- phobia not generally known. There certatnly 43, Says this writer, no disease more frequently Inentioned, none on which every one supposes that he has Clear ideas, and yet on which such total Jenorance prevails. Several causes con- spire to render this the cas2, One is, that the Pecullar symptom which characterizes the complaint brought on by the bite of the mad dog in the human subject fas been applied to the distase of the dog, abd has occas'oned It to be called by the same name, fdrophodia. This, in the place, is a palpable misnomer, for fn no instance does there ever exist any dread of water; on the contrary, dogs are in general very reedy for it. This, therefore, has led to a fatal error—have been lulled into dan- erous security by the received opinion that no og Was mad that would drink water. ANOTHER EQUALLY FATAL IDEA has existed relative to this complaint, which Is that every mad dog must necessarily be wild ani furious; but so erroncous ts this that la by far the* greater number of lastances there {s very Hitile of that wild, savage fury that 1s expected by the generality of persons, Hence, as it 13 evident that the term bydrophobia character- izing the disease of the dog is a mtsnom2r, so it ig evident that the term madne-s Is equally 80. ‘In no instance,” says this writer, ‘have Lever observed a total alienation of the mind; in very few bave the mental faculties been dis- turbed. The disposition to do mischief ts rather an increase Irritability than avsence of sense, for, {n most instances, even tuose that are furious, acknowledge the master’s volce,and are obedient. Sporismen distinguish TWO KINDS OF MADNESS, a dumb akd a raging; but the distinction Is not very clear. The varieties In the disease are numerous; {t is hard to say what 13 the frst symytom that appears. A Mr. Maynell, of sporting celebiity, Says that loss of appetite is the first symptom, bat other writers by no means consider it the first; but certain pecuit- arity in the manner of the dog; some strange departure from {ts usual habits; and tn this pecullarity cannot be laid too much stress on, for {tis almost tnvartable, and never falling eriterion of the complaint. In a great number Of instances the pecullarity consists tn a dis Position to pick up straws, bits of paper, rags, threads, or the staailest objects that may Ite On the floor; and this ts industriously persisted in tll the tloor or carpet is actually cleared of every small object; this pecullar characteristic fs very common in smaller dogs; others again’ show an early peculiarity by licking the parts of amother dog: an attachment to the sensation of cold appears in many cases, it being very common to observe them licking cold tron, coid stones, &¢.; an aniipathy to dogs and cats Is very cora- monly cbserved, particularly to cats. This is almost invariably the case, Next to cats, Strange dogs; as the disease advances they do fot spare the dogs they are domesticated wt, and lastly the persons around; but, except ina moment or irritability they seldom absolutely attack a human person. The irritablitty that induces them to bite is very strong, but devoid ot mildness, or rather it 1s more like the peevishness of achildthan fury. In many in- stahces the same centieness, attachment, and obedience are observed during the first days of lhe disease; by degrees, however, he gently Shays at persons, or runs at their feet, as though in play, and will not dite, but a stick held even in this stage is sure to excite its auger to a degree, even against those he is most fondof. This is almost 4 certain symptom. Jn most Cases there 13 A VERY TREACHEROUS DISPOSITION obeerved. A dog laboring under rabies, if called, comes, wags histall, shows every mark of fondness, permits himself to be noticed and pleased with attention, buton a sudden turns and snaps or bites. Some make no nolie;a violent inflammation of the mouth and thrjat produces a@ total inability to bark; this, by Sporismen, ty termed dumb madness,’ but where any noise !s made, which occurs in two- thirds of the cases, this very noise forms the truest Character of the disease. It consists in avery remarkable short howl, or lengthened bark, forit partakes of both, and whea once beard It can never be forgotten or mistaken. It is generally made with the heag held up in theair. There is great distress apparent in the countenance, with a quick anxtous look. the eyes always red, frequeatly so inflamed as to produce matter, ana the sight in some in- StaLces becomes deceptve and the animal snaps at objects it fancies It perceives carrying straws about in the mouth gnawing at boards,chaing and the vessel hoiding their food and water is sometimes taken up and shook to pi apsicty (o escape 1s a Very remarkal the disease; but the animal generally revarng home again unless hunted or worried. ‘A mad dog bas a PECULIAR ANXIETY TO PROPAGATE THE DIsEass, | for he travels industriously seeking objects to Dite—horses, cows, sheep, and dogs in particn- lar, Having tired himself out he returns home, Ivissaid a rabid dog will not turn out of his read to bite, but this Can only apply to the las: stages ot the disease; for in the middle stage, when the dog is sirong and active, he ts Indus— tlousiy seeking objects to bite—in fact, it is bis Sole pursuit.

The celebrated surgeon, Jobn Hunter, knew of twenty-one people who were bitten by the same it should be added. however, Stated that this individual had not been bitten by some other than the one which bit him in common with the rest. Besides, many per- sons undoubtediy died, atter'ha’ Deen hysician, after having bitten. as & precautionary measure, blew out his brains. WHAT TO DO WHEN BITTEN. However, as these things cannot be demon- strated to the satisfaction of the victim or his friends, and there 1s no known remedy for the disease, It 1s always best, after a bite by a sus- dog, to act “on the safe side.” There- fore, at once, remove the clothing, Jf any, trom the bitten part, and apply a temporary ligature above the wound. This interrupts the activity of the circulation o1 the part, and to that ex- tent delays the absorption of the polsonous saliva by the several biood-vessels of the Wound. While other things are being hurriedly prepared for, some one whose lips and mouth are free from breaks might attempt suction of the wound. The material extracted by the act, apparently chicfly of blood, should, of course. at once be ejected from the mouth of the per: s0n giving tue erege and the mouta thor- oughly cleansed with water. The bite is really @ lacerated and contused wound, and lying tu the little roughness. and between the sherds, is- this poisonous saliva It by auy means the: Projections and depressions affording the lody- Ment can be removed, the poison must go with them. If done with a knife, the wouad would be converted, practically, Into an facised wound, and would require treatment as such. If a surgeon is about, he would pro- bably stand a probe upright in the wound, and witha knife, CUE tne entire injured por- tion out. Professional aid 1s not always at com- mand, and in such a case it would be weil to take a poker or a suitable ptece of irdn, heat it red hot, at least, in the fire, wipe off and de- stroy the entire surface of the wound. As fast as destroyed the tissue becomes white. An t!ron at white heat gives less pain than one “black hot.” as smiths say; for in the latter instance the heat is scarcely suffictent te destroy, bat only irritates, while in the former the great heat at once destroys the vitality, Kills off the part with which it Comés in contact. With a pro; erly heated iron not only the surface 13 de- Stroyed, but the destructive Influcnce extends beyond and into the healthy tissue far enough, if LO point 15 neglected, to assure the purposes for which it is used. Some are inclined to think that if the wound is at once well wiped out and & stick of solid nitrate silver (lunar caustic) rapidly applied to the entire surface of the Wound little danger 13 to be apprehended. When caustic has been used poultices and warm fomentations should be applied. THRRE IS A STRANGE BELIEF among the !gnorant that, whether the dog was “mad” or not at the time of giving the bite, it it should become so at any suture time, the disease will appear in whatever Individual the animal has bitten, and, acting under this mis- taken belief, the dog Is at once slain. This should not be done, but the svspecte? animal be placed in ¢onfinement and watched, under proper safeguards, for the appearance of the disease. Should no satisfactory appearance indicate the disease In the dog, the unnecessary mental distress would be saved to the person ten. Another prevalent error exists in the pellet that the disease prevatis among animals in the hot weather of mid-summer, while the truth fs that tt 18 more apt to occur in wiater, or the darmp, cold days of spring.
