Book excerpt: Excerpt from Southern Medical and Surgical Journal, 1858, Vol. 14 There are two forms of intemperance - the one periodical and the other continued. Those addicted to the former will drink profusely for days or weeks, until the stomach rebels and rejects the potations, and they cannot take any more. They will then suffer greatly, mentally and physically, a few days, and gradual 1y get over their spree, to resume it again after the lapse of weeks, months, or even years. This is the most inveterate, the most incurable form of intemperance. Indeed, I may say that I look upon such cases as utterly hopeless, for I have never known a single instance of permanent reformation, in those ad dicted to periodical intemperance. The victims of this form are more violent and uncontrolable, more disagreeable and danger ous to society, more subject to delirium tremens, and more liable to permanent insanity, than habitual inebriates.
