and Native, labour under the Disease in a most virulent form. In the Government Civil Hospital, I have had under my care female prostitutes (picked up by the Police in the Streets and evidently turned out by the Brothel-Keeper for the purpose) suffering from the Disease in the most shocking form I ever beheld.

a seaman, he put to sea, and in a few days returned with the crew totally unable to work the Ship, being fearfully affected with the venereal. During the year 1842, when stationed at Gibraltar, I performed for several months the duty of Civil Surgeon, and in that capacity had every facility.
