" Is it not probable, from the prevalence of this fever twice in two places in tke fame years, that it was produced (as laft year) by a general conftitution of air, co-operating with miafmata, which favoured its generation in, differ- ent parts of the continent ...?

From the colour of thefe difcharges, and of the urine, the difeafc got the name of the yellow water.
