In the case of injured cornea before related (p. 2), experience teaches that inflammation, ulceration, and abscess, there observed, would have been protracted until the foreign body was expelled. In common issues, --granulation, suppuration, and ulceration are kept up or made chronic, by retaining the peas in the wound.

Occasionally, says SYDENHAM, and he is speaking of epidemical diseases, the process by which nature strives to expel the morbid influence, fastens upon a part wholly unable to get rid of it at all, and this may arise from the conformation of the part itself, as is the case with morbid matter impacted in the brain or nerves of paralytics, and with pus in the cavities of a thoracic empyema. Tubercular consumption ranges in this category, for there are hindrances to the discharge of the contents of a pulmonary abscess, from the conformation of the part. The matter of tubercles cannot be got rid of except after complete softening and fluidity, and then only by cough and expectoration through openings made by ulceration in the bronchial tubes. The morbid material which is softened and separates from the more healthy part of the lung, is deeply seated in the interior of a vital organ. With these contingencies, that the process...
