Excerpt from The Science of Therapeutics, Vol. 2: According to the Principles of Homoeopathy Regarding the nature of the gonorrhoeal contagium, Opinions still differ. Some deny the specific nature of the contagium, placing it in the same category as the secretion of epidemic blepharophthal mitis; they assert that gonorrhoea is caused by contact With the secretion caused by an intense catarrhal inflammation of the vagina. This View is not entirely unfounded, and is more' particularly sup ported by the circumstance that gonorrhoea does not superinduce constitutional diseases. Others attribute to the gonorrhoeal virus a specific character, and the power of producing constitutional mala dies, concerning whose essential actuality and nature, we shall offer some further remarks in the following paragraphs. The gonorrhoeal virus has even been supposed to be identical with the chancre poison; this Opinion has, however, been abandoned. We cannot afford time or space to enter upon a more extensive discussion of these points, to which we shall however, refer somewhat more fully in the next paragraph. [j ahr s recent work on Venereal Diseases translated and edited with numerous notes and additions by Chs. J Hempel, M. D., and published by W. Radde, N o. 550 Pearl St. New York, is the best work on this important subject now extant, in the literature of our School; no physician who desires to have a full and accurate knowledge of the various Opinions now prevalent regarding the nature of the gonorrhoeal Virus and the syphilitic contagium, or of the manifold disorders which they are capable of producing, from the simplest blennorrhoea to the most terrible dis organization, or of their homoeopathic treatment as conducted in accordance with strictly and unimpeachably scientific principles, can do without this work.
