Con (Hi iou and ieeiing oj Mr. Whitney
between his last treat/and by Dr. Green
and his death.
*• December 14. l8f»S—About one in the af
ternoon I was Called to see Samuel S. Wh t*
m»>; 1 found him stu founded by several mem
bers of hi* family, in a state of the most in
tense excitement, suffering and term ; in an
swer to my inquiries a*to what had happened
tie answered. “Sitdown, Beales, and l will
tell you tile truth; I was such a fool a? to go
to Dr. Gieen to be operated upon., and the
d—il viIlian has killed me!”
See Dr. Beale’s statement. b«fo:e the Acad
emy of Medicine, in the city of New York, as
published in the New Yoik Herald, Jan. 20,
1850.
The unfortunate death of Mr. Whitney is
another evidence of the uncorteiuity and un
reliability of the treatment for the cure of the
sick as practiced by the Medical Faculty.—
The death of this eminent and well-known
citizen created an excitement of such magni
tude, us to induce the Academy of Medicine
to demand an investigation of the treatment
the deceased had been under, and of the im
mediate cause of his death. Yet, after a thor
otigh and searching post moiteinexamination,
bv the most able, skilled, and eminent physi
cians of the regular pi action—the members ol
the Academy were unable to decide * to the
‘•immediate cause of dea h;” a.id. in their re
port to the Congress of wise Physicians there
assembled, admitted their mcompeteucy of
solving this dilficuU problem. The sad case
presented to u* irtflujAaainfill death of JJ}j.
Whitney i* by no riiHWran uncommon oceftv
rence. Thousands of human beings, who
tnHt theii live* in the hands of physicians,
whose treatment and practice is ba-ed upon
the theories followed by the medical Faculty,
are suddenly bun ied oif’Mo that undiscovered
country, from whose bourne no traveller re
turns.’’ Fi o:u the te-i imony produced befo>6
the Academy of Medicine, we are not pre
pared to assertth.it the immediate cause of
Air. Whitney’s death was produced by the ap
plication of the nitrate of silver, through th’
tube, or by the pjobung. but we most emphat
ically assert that the death of the lamented
Whitney was hastened by Uns treatment.—
We hiii o always up po • d this method of treat
ment; ami in our papers and Annual Alma
nac. warned the public against it.
See our Almanac, for 1.853—page d.
THE (AKEEN SYSTEM.
‘■'Flier ‘ is (mother system of practice be
coming quite popular in the treatment of con
sumption, namely, that of the (Ji een or Hurn
imrm ’thod which consists of syringing down
the tin oat a solution of nitrate of silver, for
the purpose of burning the concretions that
may be there foi med.

. r •. ai..! ,-i.»c in Lftrac A? i'
It is a blind, unsafe, and dangeious method of
ti’e utm-'iit, and will kill more than it will cure.”
it is not our design in this article, to dis
cuss the correctness of medication in tne case
of Mr. Whitney, under the treatment of Drs.
Mott and Beales in the various symptoms ex
hibited from the 14’)) of December to the time
of his decease; but, we do most religiously
and sacredly believe taking Dr. Beale’s state
ment—who it appears from lh« evidence
given before the Academy of Medicine, knew
more of the phy-ical and constitutional con
di'ion of Mr. Whitney’s sy.-tem than any one
el-.*—that Railway’s Ready Relief, Regulating
Pills and Renovating Resolvent would hive
saved his life.
STATEMENT OE DR BEALES.
“Dr. lie,lies said: D,i ing the number of
years that I have attended Air. Whi'liey’.
family I have not known Mi. Samuel Whit
ney o be seriously ill. -o as to be confined to
to hi- bed; but he h .s for a long time been
snbjec to various derangements of th; diges
jv? oigatis such as want of appetite lo.pidt
v of the bowel-, deficiency of ifie billions ;<■•
■-."ioi.s, and occasionally a b om hiat cough,”
There are thousands and lens of thousands,
h oughotit the United States who have been
amilarly afllioled, and relieved f oin th»• ii
litiicu ties by h" use of Railway’s Ready Re
ief. Regulating Pills and Re-olvent, in fact,
very day we are visited by patients, corn
darning of the same ailments, who become
• peedity relieved from their difficulties by the
indication of these remedies.
Lot us again lefci to the statement of Dr.
Beales, ami endorsed by Dr. Mott, of the ti eat
uent in this case f out 1 P M. of the 11th of
I) cember. The ease, as presented, is fully
itated in the Herald of the 20;h of Januaiy;
md we ftad in thlk report, the patient, with
inmerous other symptoms, suffered severely
,oin irritation and seven- pain in the throat;
bis breathing was occasionally irregular, and
almost spasmodic; coughing almost incessant
ly; speaking with gieat difficulty and pain in
a hoarse ami unnatural tone of voice. Dr.
Beales gave the patient medicine, for the pur
pose of pro iucmg a reaction; but the reme
dies givu, it seems, ut erly failed. Had lie
given, on the instant, Kadwav’s Ready Re
lief. he would have secured the desired result.
Six boms later, the Doctor found his pa
tient suffering severe pain, described to be in
the larynx down the course of the trachea to
-he chest, and loutui to the cervical vertebra ’
Notwithstanding the great excitement, uer
vmisness end teiror, with pulse at 112. the
Doctor administered a preparation of An!i
mony and Mo phlue, for the purpose evidently
of soothing the pain, exciting ihe skin to ii
more natural action, and allaying the neivous
excitability of the patient. Had he applied
KADWAY’S READY RELIEF, he would
have succeeded; his rem .lies, however, had
the opposite effect. Eight hours after this
medication, he applied to the throat of the pa
tient an “Buodyne liniment.” if R.ulway’s
Ready Relief was obnoxious to the Doctor,he
should have applied the Bnodyne liniment
2d hours earlier.
Dr. Beales states that he “has for a long
time been subjected to a derangement of the
digestive organs,and torpidity of the bowels.”
which tit o ur • words imply a disordered eon
ilili.m of Ihe L'v r. amt (1 ring this c. ,tical j
condition of the patient he h id not adi -oh'aige |
fimn the towels “in three daw” lisa lein, - |
d;al agent an injection wn- given, which fail- '

Tin- sail an I distress tor case of Mi Whitney |
will, we hope and tm t. -erve as a warping to
the ruililic against trusting their lives in the
h inds of a clique who a u licensed to lull*tbe .
-irk in the unconscious sleep of death on sci
»riti|ic p-iuciplcs. As we before sta’ed. we
are not prepved to asse.t 'In’ 'he cause of
Mr. Whitney’.-) <le-ill wa.- directly own..* to
the • raiment of the Green .. ail.I w->
Iirtherinnre belie vc. bad hi. Rentes employed
Railway’s Ready Re. t, R, giilsting Rills aim
R-rolvent in hi- tieiitment of the case, rhn life
nf Mr. Whitney would have been prolonged.
\., wp have before stated, Hie case of Mr.
Whitney is by no means an exception to the
general rule that follows the ruedkation a'
prescribed by the regular or ofiiria! standard
of t-.eliea' hiw. Had the deceased been nnob
. -ure individual, tils case would never have
■ onirt-t In light. Thousands uni iiiou
s.i.ili of i-.in-u beings have been i.i 1 led oil
IP ongli Ihe ignorance of tneir physicians.
i.*-t us go back to the testimony of Dr. Mott,
as regards the usual practice of physicians in
making out th ir certificates of the cause of
death to the City Inspector. If the doctor
speaks truth, the greater part of medical cer
tificates ere medical falsehoods j and the per
petrator® of these falsehoods deseivc to be im
prisoned like other criminals undergoing sen
tences for false pretences.
“C warm dehate then ensued, during which
D.-. Mott was present to state tile cause of Mr.
Whitney’s death. In reply the eto. h" stated
that it was well known that the profession
was at a loss to deiiae the cause of death from
the symptoms presented. Doctors were of tell
puzzled now to fill the necessary certificate tor
the City Inspector. The ready manner in
which Dr. Mott described tlmse symptoms,
cieated a little merriment.’"—[ See rein . ks o!
