Apropos of tho journey from Cannot to St Petersburg of the invalid Empress of Raisin, who went home in mid-winter for fear of dying away from her family, a diitinguithed Vienna physician publishes a vigorous protest against the practice of tending consumptive patient to warm climate without regard to the stage of their disease or their circumstances. He hu taken note of 50 catet of such patients, who have been tent by their phyaicians to apend a winter in Italy or Egypt, and among them all he found only three who received any benofit from tho change, while many were positively in jured. Much that he sayt it as applicable to this country as to Europo. No doubt many of our physicians pruscribe a winter sojourn in Florida or Nassau, to patienta in advanced ntages of lung complaint, without much consid eration of possible ellccts upon them of an ener vating atmosphere, the absence of home faces and lioinu comforts, and the weariness and loneliness of a listless life among strangert, A warm winter climate is no doubt beneficial in the early stages of the disease, and in some in stances may clloct a cure; and in moro advanced stages its inlluonce may alloviate tho tufieringt of the patient and retard the progress of the fatal malady. Hut tho wise physician should esrefully consider whether the possible benetita will not be more than counterbalanced by tho fatigue of the journey and tho discomforts and home-sickness attendant upon life in hotels, away from family and friends. Every one who has visited our Southern winter resorts, haa licen moved at the spectacle of melancholy in valids hoping for some magical ofloct from the climate, which thoy never should have been led to oxpect Consumed with rrinni, anil no society save that of other patients, these poor people watch the thermomoter and tho progress of their ailmentt, shivering with cold when the mercury approaches tho frceiing point, and bitterly re gretting the snug Northern homes whioh many of them should never have left.
