Experiments and observations on the specific gravities and attractive powers of various saline substances.

1781 | Richard Kirwan, Esq; F. R. S.
The passage discusses the use of a remedy for a specific condition, noting that it can improve urine smell and skin appearance over time. The author emphasizes its effectiveness and simplicity, suggesting it should be widely recognized by medical practitioners. The text then transitions to a review of the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London, 1781, focusing on three papers: one by Richard Kirwan on the specific gravities and attractive powers of saline substances, another by Owen Salufbury Brereton on a lightning storm in Eastbourne, and a third by Matthew Dobson on the Harmattan wind in Africa. Each paper is briefly described, highlighting their contributions to chemistry, meteorology, and natural history. The final section mentions an essay on hemiplegia and mania, detailing a case study of a soldier named William Jackson who experienced sudden numbness and loss of limb function.The passage discusses the use of a remedy for a specific condition, noting that it can improve urine smell and skin appearance over time.
