Hydrophobia.—The Piedmontese Gazette
of the 8th of May, 1817, contains the follow-
ing article:—There is at length an efficacious
remedy against the most terrible of all mala-
dies, madness. This remedy consists of hy-
droclore (liquid oxygenated muriatic acid)
used internally, as well as externally; the
wounds caused by the bite of mad animals are
to be washed with it. This substance will
