In a somewhat similar case which occurred under the Author's notice, in the person of a young French lady, more than 15 days elapsed between the time that she ceased to eat regularly, and the time of her being compelled to take nourishment ; during this period she took a great deal of exercise, and her strength seemed to suffer but little, al- though she swallowed solid food only once, and then in small quantity. If the cessation of muscular exertion be complete, it seems that life is usually m...ore prolonged than where exercise of any kind is performed ; and this is what might naturally be expected. In certain states of the system commonly known as Hysterical, there is frequently a very remarkable disposition for ab- stinence, and power of sustaining it. In a case of this kind which occurred under the Author's own notice, a young lady, who had suffered severely from the tetanic form of Hysteria, was'unable to take food for three weeks. The slightest attempt to introduce a mcfrspl of solid matter into the stomach, oc- casioned very severe vomiting and retching ; and the only nourishment taken during the period mentioned, was a cup of tea once or twice a day, on many days not even this being swallowed.
