ORIGINAL DEFECTIVE .T JACKSON COUNTY. ¡jThç «Dmomtiç íTimes. The following we take from the 8. F. Bulletin of Sept. 15th. It is from the Business Agent. pen of Mr. Hugh Small, a gentleman of culture, who has recently visited this sec tion of country: J acksonville , Aug. 31, 1871. The great canyon at the head of the Umpqua Valley south is a marvelous work of nature. It is at least ton miles long, and the mountains on each side, ail the way, average some hundreds of feet high, heavily timbered on the highest point. The road is very narrow in some places, the inclines are steep and precipi tous, but good horses and a competent driver gives an assurance of safety. I passed through this canyon by moon light ; it presented an aspect of wild, na tural boldness and grandeur that was sol emn and impressive. I S ATURDAY MORNING. SEPTEMBER 23.1871. D. FtHDRAY. JACKSON COUNTY AND ITS RESOURCES. A CARD PROM DR. DAVI». E ditor T imes : Please allow ine to trouble you with this card. In justice to myself and and Dr. Danforth, who assist ed me in treating Dr. Greenman in his last sickness, allow me to say that we fre quently told Dr. Greeman’s many friends that we considered him convalescent, and that unless something unforseen occurred he would get well; and as he died of un foreseen perforation of the intestine, an explanation is necessary, which cannot be better done than “Wood’s Practice of Medicine” does it on page 341, vol. I, fifth edition, which is as follows : “There is occasionally a fatal termina tion of this disease (Enterie or Typhoid Fever) of a peculiar character which it is necessary to notice. The patient is sud denly seized, without any premonitions of danger, perhaps in the midst of convales cence, with violent pains in the abdomen, which is occasionally tender to the touch. Hometimes there is no pain, but only ten derness. The knees are drawn up, and the face assumes an anxious, and even a ghastly expression ; rigors, an exceed ingly frequent, and contracted pulse. Obstinate vomiting, and constipation are frequent symptoms. A collapse of the circulation of the surface precedes death, Which usually takes place in a day or two, though life is sometime prolonged for a week. The cause of these symp toms Is a perforation of the intestine and the escape of its liquid contents, produc ing inflamation of the peritoneum. It is more frequently the mild than the ag* grivated cases of the disease that are lia ble to this accident. It occurs at variable periods in the complaint, having been no ticed as early as the twelfth day and as late as the fortieth.” This description of Dr. Wood so fully answers Dr. Greennian’s agonizing symptoms for the last two days of his life that ail of his nurses and watches will immediately recognize them as ap plicable to his case.
