CONSTIPATION-CAUSE AND CURE. mil ERE is not among the whole catalogue of X cl'rouic diseases, one concerning which 1 am so often written to, and consulted, from every "fiction of the United States, and called upon to prescribe for as Constipation of the Bowels. It would seem to be the disease of the country, and like most other chrouic disases, I find has been treated under a total misapprehension as regards the true cause of the disease. I will in my advertisement of this week give what I conceive to be the correit view of its causes?a view, I am aware, that is opposed by the great mass of the profession, but which is strenuously advocated by a few, and those few from their research and close study stand at the head of their profession, and from whom I am indebted to having been converted from the old beaten track as laid down in the books and led to embrace my present belief. With a view to making the matter intelligible to the general reader, (which is a very difficult thing to do) I shall endeavor to simplify the uiattcv as much as possible, iu the hope that I may be followed without difficulty. Constipation is of two kinds, or perhaps I ought rather to say, that it arises from two and entirely dissimilar states of the system, viz: in those that arc lean and of spare habit, and in those of a robust and healthy appearance. We will fust take into consideration the former, and the first question to be propounded and answered is. 117,;/ are1/<< bowels irregular as regards their ae(i?u?irhg do theg not more with more regularity undfrequenrg?why the delay iu (he fecal matter being ejected ? For the very good reason that the natural stimulus to action, or the contraction of the parleties of the bowels upon their contents is absent?they do not act because that which sets them iu motion, that which stimulates them to contraction, and the consequent expelling of their contents is not present to excite or bring about this action or contraction. ' * '' a* ///?. I) tlt'l IS [IKS II" It: I 'II OCIHIHIKS VI ; lion of the bowels? Their contents?the fecal matter, and which must be of a ccriniu bulk, or of sonic o or 0 ounces iu weight before it can become an cxcitor of the contraction of the bowels. The reason then, why no evacuation takes jilacc?why the bowels arc irregular, is because there is 110 fecal matter there to excite contraction?there is 110 fecal mattei there to be expelled, and of course if thero is nothing there to be expelled, nothing can be expellj ed. Fecal matter cannot be scut out of the bowI els, because it is not in them; it is not because , bowels arc unable to discharge their contents, but i because they have no contents to discharge. I said there was nothing, 110 fecal matter there; 1 there may be a small quantity, not enough at any rate from its bulk or weight to excite contraction, ' but as soon as some live or six ounces are present in the bowels, their muscular coats will ju.?t so certainly, by the weight of their contents be stimulated and forced into contraction and the expelling of their contents as the womb will, at the end : of nine months, from the weight of its contents ex; pel the fetus, or as the bladder will expel its con| tents when a certain quantity shall have been scI creted there. It is a law of the economy, and unj til there is sufficient weight or bulk within the inI tcstiues, sufficient to stimulate them to contract, ! there will be no evacuation, and of course no t vacua lion is needed. At this point I will take occasion to remark, that uudcr this view of the cause of irregularity oi the bowels oue can very readily see how perfectly ridiculous and nonsensical, and how entirely use1 less is the administration of purgative medicines in Constipation. You take purgative or laxative medicines and for what?why to expel from the bowels tliat which is not there?to force them tc , contract and expel when there is nothing to expel, l'urgativc medicines in Constipation arc not only useless, but very injurious, as we shall see, ami their administration is the height of empyricism Let the bowels alone until the proper time arrives I for their evacuation, or until they need to be evacuated, and rest assured they will perforin tlicii functions without the help of any drugs. Lc: ( them alone, and when the faces shall have accum ulatcd to the amount of some o or G ounces they will most certainly contract upon and expel theii contents. The next question 111 order is? Why is not J tea I matter present?why has it no been with more regularity and with more frequency dtjiusili d, so 'is to heroine an xeitor to contraction > the howls and (he const qui at ujmlsion of their con tuts? For the reason, that as the feces are a h ue scree (ion from the blood, and the patient from his lean lank, lantern-jawed appearance shows very plain ly that lie has but very little blood inside of him and what there is, of the thinest, poorest am 1 i:?,- if vorv to inuiffiue th:r : iiiiiiuvai tjuumj, *v j -- there will not be much secretion; it is an impossi bility that there should be much, for the blood h not there out of n-hl' h the fecal secretions can bi manufactured; the manufacturers arc ready tod< I the work?they are ready to manufacture the fcca matter, but they are short of material, they liavi nothing to work with, 110 material to work iuti fecal matter. Like the cotton factory, when j everything is ready to do the work, all the hand! 1 employed, all the machinery in good order an< ! isady for action, but the spun thread is wantitif i ?it is'nt to be had and can not be got, and tin 1 consequence is 110 homespun is made, as there ii j nothing to make it out of. So it is with the coloi and rectum, the lower bowels, they are ready t< manufacture and deposit the fecal accretion, bu good rich blood, aud a plenty of it being wanting they are'left without any material to work with aud of course, not having this all important unite I rial, the blood, they cannot manufacture these j cretion. Now, 1 am aware, that this doctrine of feeifica tion is at variance with a large mass of the pro I fession, aud not only the profession, but those ou of it, and the latter as well as a large majority 0 the former, regard the feces as the residiuui 0 I the food, as that portion of the food which no taken up by the circulation, and uot needed fo i the purposes of nourishing the body, or as the re fuse of the food after all the nutritious part of i j has been extracted, but this is entirely a wronj I idea, for the feces are as true a secretion from th mucus membrane of the colon, as is the gastric juice from the mucus membrane of the stomach, or the saliva from the mucus membrane of the glands of the mouth, or the tears from the mucus membrane of the lachrymal glands, and the amount of secretion from either depends upon the quantity and quality of blood distributed to them, and so of the colon, the amount of secretion from its mucus membrane, that i--, the quantity of feces that is deposited in the bowels depends upon the quantity of blood distributed to that membrane. The hooks, I am aware, teach a very different doctrine, but because Dr. this one or Dr. that one j says so in his book is no reason of its being true. Other Doctors in their books say differently, ami 1 when Doctors disagree, who shall decide. The books say, and it is the generally received opin; ion among the profession, that after the ford passcs into tli.- .-trim ich. it is bv the muscular action of the stomich rolled and tumbled about until it becomes a soft homogeneous mass, and then it is j passed forward into the upper portion of the liowj els, called the duodenum, where by the action of the bile upon it a portion <>r part is extracted or separated for purposes of nutrition colled chilt j anil which is taken up bv the small tubular vessels called lacteal* and carried into the circulation for the purposes of nourishing the body: the other [ portion becoming useless, after the chile is cxj tracted from it it is sent forward through the bowels and expelled. Now, instead of a "art only of this mass being prepared and taken into the circulation, tbe whole of it is in health taken up. Now Ictus see about this?let us see if a part only is ; taken and carried into the circulation. How much in weight docs a person in health cat at a meal ?? Say two pounds?three meals a day would make six pounds that he has taken into his stomach.? Now, according to the books a part of this say one-half, is taken up and carried into the circulation ; the other half, then, according to our calculation, would he one pound left in the bowels after each inc.ll, or three pounds a day to be carried forward and expelled at the lower portion of the bowels. Now, bear in mind, that there is each day three pounds of dross or residiitin of the food ( that is not needed for the nutrition of the body, l and is carried on through the bowels to be expelled. Now, suppose this man happened to be trou, bled with constipation of the bowels, and should | have no discharge from the bowels for one week, a very frequent occurrence with dyspeptics and \ others troubled with Constipation, I have known I persons to go 3 weeks without having any opera* ; tiou of the bowels, and there are cases on record i where patients have gone C and 12 months with| out having had a stool. Now, at the end of one j week this constipated patient would, according to ! our calculation, lie carrying about him in his bowels 21 pounds of fecnl matter?at tiic end of two ' weeks he would carry about with him -12 pounds j ?at the end of three weeks G3 pounds?and in I the case of those I have alluded to as going 0 and j ; 12 months without a stool, one would carry d-JG . pounds, and the other 1002 pounds. What an abI suid idea, that n person should carry about with : liiin a thousand pounds or the half of it of fecal ! ; matter, or even (33 or 42, or the 21 pounds. Sup- j pose the patient, at tbe end of the first week, who : t is supposed to have 21 pou ds in store is weighed, ' " "? netnnllv wi'iub ! will lie JIUU IIIIIV11 IliUIV !???? .. . --j weigh 21 pounds more? No. Will lie weigh the { halfol'it, or "> pounds, or 1 pound? No, not one j I ho// ounce more, and the great probability it, that ! lie will nut even weigh as inucli as lie did the week j previous. What has become of the 21 pounds of refuse matter? That's a i|iiestioii much easier j asked than answered, if we slick to the old doc- j j trine as laid down in the books. I'll tell you j j what lias become of it: the it-hole of tho food was , j taken up and carried into the circulation, and a j [ good portion has pass,id of through the bladder : in form of urine, and through the pores of the 1 , skin in the form insensible perspiration. It has come under the observation of almost ev- 1 j ery one that a patient laboring under some acute I i disease, where no solid food has been taken for ; weeks, yet the stools are us well formed ami co- ; ! pious as ever; and, in fact this same patient may j i have, at the commencement of his disease taken j j strong and purgative medicine, which expelled, I every panicle of fecal matter, and before taking I any iiou.ishmcut with tho exception, perhaps of a I I little tea. he has had othvrstoolsulmost as copious. | and of as much consistence as the first. This, of : course, could not have been the residuum of the J i food, for the patient had taken none. Patients j with lock jaw, where it was an impossibility for j them to take any tiling for days and weeks in j shape of nourishment, except liquid, and that of j the tliinest kind, vet have n daily evacuation of ; the usual consistence. Patients suffering from I cancer in the mouth, that precluded the possihili1 ty of taking any kind of nourishment by the . mouth, have been nourished and kept alive by j enemas, yet they have stools ..f more or less consistence. Where could this fecnl matter come I from?certainly not from the food? Again, persons subject to Constipation, generally have gv,d, and sometimes enormous appetites, and eat large quantities, yet have a movement of the bowels very seldom, and then very small in quantity. If it remained in the bowels, of course there would be a protuberance there giving evidence that there was n quantity of matter lodged there ; but, on the contrary instead of there being I any protubeiance there, eon.-fipateJ persons always have exceedingly.//"/ bellies, nnd moreover, j if there was a quantity of matter lodged there, : the nntiont would weigh more : but lie does not weigh one hull* ounce more than lie did at the last movement of his bowels. , As an argument against this doctrine, it may be said, that particles of food, seeds, skins of , dried fruit, cherry stones, &c., nre found in the I stools. This, however, is no argument against it, . for they are found there either because they escape the action of the gastric juice, or it was impossible for the gastric juice to dissolve them. If a man swalhw a cannon ball, 1 for one, would not , expect it to be dissolved by the gastric juice or prepared by the stomach for its reception into the circulation. If a person swallow a penny or a cherry stone, it is bound to go through them, for , ! the gastric juice will not dissolve them. Now, what 1 conceive tube about the right view , of this whole matter is this: The food, urn! the ' ; whole of i', is, by the muscular action and the [juices of the stomach converted iirfo a soft homo1 gencous mass, and then is passed along into the i upper bowels called the d nod mint, on the sides of . which arc a great number of little orifices, which , , are mouths of small vessels or tubes called lacfci/#, , whose office it is to take up this food, now called chile, and carry it along and discharge it into a I large vein, ami by which it is carried to the heart: 1 from the heart it is forced into the lungs, when by i coming in contact with the atmosphere is convertcd into g<md healthy red blood, and now fit (but j not previously) for the purpose of nutrition. It now being made into good red blood is brought I ! back by large veins lo the heart again, from whence , I it is again propelled into the large arteries and i ! distributed to every portion of the system. The , blood passing on through t lit so arteries arc received , ' into nuothcr set of vessels of the veiy smallest , calibre called aijdlhtri/ rrtsrl*, and which are in , every tissue of the body, ami so numev?us that . the point of a small needle cannot enter the skin [ without piercing them. Now in these minute vessels the great functions ? : of ft h h it ion and r<-er> .'/> u arc curried on, or, in - | other wm ds, the depositing of all flic solids, such r as bone, sinew, muscle, nails, ^e ; this is nutritinn. t i while the depositing of the liquids, such as bile, - ; gastric juice, saliva, tears, Su-.. is called wretinit. ' 1 livery particle of the solids and liquids of the p . body are separated ami deposited from the Mood j by these small vessels, but /?<// mi ml that the ' i/rjtoxil* arc made ouli/ j'?r a nhorl time. As almost I every one is aware, there is a constant change f i going on in the system?eld solids arc being f i broken down and taken away, and now deposited - j in their place. We have already seen how new J matter is deposited. Now old matter, after it has - become the worse for wear, becomes broken down , ! worn out, useless, and it must in some way be rc vivified, enlivened, made new again. The cntn, mencement of this work is accomplished by ves1 ^/.l- II...I five Culled uhxorl.rnt vesm/x. I'.v these is t old matter, after it is broken down and icli<|Uifio?l - taken up and passed along into the veins, and by 3 which it is carried to the heart, and front the ; heart it is thrown into the lungs, and thus by its ) contact with the atmosphere it becomes rid of 1 its carbonic acid, receives a fresh supply of oxygen, t is revivified, made new again, and is brought back ? to the heart, and is now ready tube sent through! ( out the entire system, to be deposited again. Thus 3 it will be seen, that bone, muscle, sinew, mucus, 1 j bile, saliva, &c., is deposited, re-circulated and ; ] rc-deposited again and again. This is true of a c 1 good portion of each, but not all, for there is\a s portion of each, after it has been taken up by tlie i absorbent vessels, that cannot be revivified?that j cannot bo enlivened or made into good blood again; t j and now what is done with this that is of no , farther use for the system ? It is mrrinl oaf of , J (he syxti at by a act of mere!inn cexx,lx mailc for the yiiijmxc. And how? liy three different cbann ;ls, - viz: through the kidneys, by the secretion of urine: through the skin, in the form of insensible - i perspiration; and throuyli the lower bowel*, by the - | secretion of fecal mutter. t Tims, it will be seen that the fecal matter, inf 1 stead of being the residuum of the food, is the f : dross or broken down matter, which being no lont ger of any use to the system, is sent out of .he r | system through the secreting vessels of the mucus - | membraue of the lower bowels. This is one of t j the channels by which the blood is rid of these ; | matters, the retention of which would uot only o < leave no room for the admission of now blcod I made from chile, which is constantly being formed, but would vitiate the blood nnd clog the wheels of life. ?o essential is the eliminating of these matters no longer of any use for the purposes of nourishing the body, that when one of these channels, from any cause, ceases to secrete, or does so imperfectly, one or the other channels, or both, will perform double duty. For instance, when the lower bowels do not secrete their proportionate share in the form of fecal matter, there is always a much larger flow of urine and with a greater disposition to perspiration, fn cold weather, as every one knows, the flow of urine is always greater than in warm, and it is because the skin | becomes shrunk and shrivelled up from the cold, ; which closes the capillary vessels of the skin; and j there arc cases on record where the mucus memI In ane of the colon failing to secrete the faces, the | skin has been made the point of elimination to a l most disgusting extent. | Now from what has been said, I think the read' er will discover that the feces arc as true a scerc, tion from the blood as is the saliva, bile, gastric | juice, &e., and it should he borne in mind thnt the amount of secretion of feces depends upon the amount of blood sent to the mucus membrane of the lower bowels; if there is but little blood sent I there, very little accretion can take place from it, | but if the patient be in good health, and possess a good supply of rich red blood, he will, about ovorv 04 hours, have secreted some or 0 ounces ' <.f fcc.il matter, ami this quantity being present will excite the bowels to contract and discharge i their contents. As good, wholesome and substantial food makes | good rich blood, and a plenty of it for every so cretion in the body to carry on its functions, and as we also know that almost every constipated person has not only ft craving and ravenous appetite, but gratifies it, the next question and the last one is? .4# the feces are a true secretion from the blood, and an the amount of secretion depends upon the quantity of blood distributed to the mucus membrane of the colon, and as there is no lack of appetite, or withholding of r/ood and substantial food, which makes blood in abundance, why is the pati-nt almost bloodless, and for this reason constipated ? Because ol congestion of the stomach or upper ' bowels which unfits those organs from taking tip the food and preparing it in a proper manner for the circulation. (How congestion of the stomach and upper bowels prevents the taking up of the I food and preparing it for the circulation, I hall explain in my next advertisement, and which will be for the benefit of the ladies, especially the i young ladies, who : egard a fine figure uud form of 1 any consideration.) Thus we see that the cause, | and the only cause of constipation of the bowels j lies in disease of the stomach and upper bowels. Now, instead of constipation always occurring in those who arc thin in flesh, and having but little blood inside of them, it sometimes occurs in those of a full and plethoric habit. The cause of the constipation in these cases is not the want of good blood in the system, but from its unequal distribution through the body?some organs are overloaded and gorged with blood, which of course takes it from other organs itndieavos them almost in a bloodless state. When constipation occurs in those of a full and plethoric habit, it is from congestion of the stomach. The stomach has an undue quantity of blood shnt to it, nnd for which reason the mucus membrane of the colon is left in the same bloodless state as though there was a want of blood through the entire system. From the above, it is no very hard matter to discover that the exhibition of purgatives or even laxative medicines in constipation, is most absurd and entirely useless; nor is this all, for their exhibition is positively injurious, and very much so ? for liv their exhibition a premature disciiarge from the howels is caused, and a forced secretion of the blood, which must, to n certainly, still farther reduce an already weakened tinu debilitated system. We readily can see that there is not a particle of blood to "spare, yet the exhibition of purgatives not only send the blood to the lower bowels, and, by so doing, draw* it ninn/ from the more vital organs, org ins of nutrition, and which must have all the blood there is for the purposes of nutrition or nourishing the system; and it not i only docs this, hut after forcing it to the bowels, 1 the blcod is caused to secrete more or loss of mucus or fecal matter, and by so doing, is still farther impoverished, and by this loss from the blood, the organs of nutrition are deprived still more of the precious liquid for nourishing the body, and the system, front the lack of the material by which it is nourished, becomes still farther reduced and debilitated. Now, from this premature discharge ; from the bowels?from this still farther taking front, reducing and impoverishing the blood? ! and thereby causing a diminution of nutrition, we can readily sec why the constipation is still ; more obstinate after such a premature discharge, j caused by purgative medicines; (for it is the cx! poriencc of every one that after taking purgative I medicines, they arc not only no belter off, but j the constipation is even still more obstinate,)?it is because the blood, which is the parent of this and all other secretions, has been still farther impoverished, exhausted and reduced by the discharge than it was previous to it, and which was j so much reduced then that Accretion of fecal matter was very small in quantity, so small that several days perhaps would elapse before the requisite quantity, viz: ? or li ouuecs would he present to excite contraction of the bowels and expulsion of their contents. And now in conclusion, we find that the whole trouble lies not in the lower bowels, but in the iliys'.ife organs, and to effect a cure of this formidable malady, a well directed treatment to these organs alone, must he resorted to, and remedial age i ts selected and made use of with the greatest care and cnutiou. As a remedy for this disease, I unhesitatingly recommend the remedy | known as IJL1SS' DYSPEPTIC 11 KM ED Y. It is I a sovereign remedy in this ntfeetion, and will not fail of affecting a cure if directions arc complied with. It will not cure at once; it would be foolish to expect it. or of any other medical prcpara! tion; the system must have time to recruit its ; worn out and exhausted powers. This remedy will enable the stomach to prepare the food for the circulation, front which good, healthy and rich red blood will be made, and by which latter the function of nutrition will be carried on, and through which function the enfeebled system will become buoyed up an strcngthcd, and the secretions of saliva, gastric juice, bile, utiuc, and of fecal matter from the lower bowels will take place in good and sufficient quantities. I if yon commence with the remedy, do so with j the determination to follow it up and act closely i up to all directions, or not take it at all. If you ' do take it, and follow out all the directions, you ; may rest assured it will cure, I care not of how I iong duration or standing, or how obstinate it has heretofore proved, it will not fail if taken properly. W. W. 15 LI S3, ."CS Broadway, X. Y. The REMEDY is for sale by L. P. BAllNETT, i & CO. Yorkville S. C. and who will send it by : mail, to any address, ou receipt of price of the ! medicine. I Since writing the above, I have received a let! let- from a gentleman in Mc.Minn county, Tcnn., | consulting nic as regards his disease, Constipation | of the Bowels, and among other things, says he j lias a keen, ravenous appetite, which he can scarce ! satisfy, although he cats large quantities; and he ! also states that 'die had not had a passage from | the bowels for four weeks." Now, it strikes me, that if the old doctrine of the feces be true, as laid down in the books, the old gentleman must, about now begin to weigh 'right smart.'
