"A Description of the Jail Distemper, as it appeared among the Spanish Prisoners at Winchester in 1780, with an Account of the Means employed to cure the Contagion to which it gave rise." For the discovery of a remedy for that contagion, in the use of three mineral acids of great efficacy, Dr. Smith received a parlia mentary reward, after a fruitless opposition from Dr. John Johnstone, of Kidderminster, who, on very vague grounds, claimed the discovery for his father, as it was afterwards claimed also for the French nation by M. Chaptal, who states it to have been first practised by Guyton de Morveau, in 1773. These claims drew from Dr. Smith two controversial pamphlets, "A Letter to William Wilberforce, Esq., on a Pamphlet by Dr. Johnstone," 8vo. 1806; and "Remarks on the Report of M. Chaptal, with an Examina tion of the Claim of M. Guyton de Morveau, to the Discovery of the Power of the Mineral Acid Gas on Contagion," 8vo.

Deaths May. A man named Mortimer, at Collumpton, of voluntary starvation. He had a small property, by which he had been supported for some years; but finding he was likely to outlive it, as it was reduced to about £150, and feeling the apprehension of want more than the natural love of life, he came to the resolution of ending his days by starvation. To effect this dreadful purpose, he took nothing but water for a month before he died; at the end of three weeks, his body was wasted to a skeleton, and a medical gentleman was called in, who advised him to take some nourishment, but this he refused, and even discontinued the use of water.. In this way he subsisted another week, when nature yielded the contest.→→→ June. Rev.
