That part of the pathogenesis which belongs to Hahnemann and his ten
associates is entirely in his earlier manner, for it is transported
unchanged from Vol. VI. of the first edition of the Materia
Medica Pura
. The symptoms (124 in the
original) obtained by Nenning are almost the sole additions here. -Hughes.

Manganese as it is
mined ;

i.
e.
, the black
oxide of Maganese, is triturated in a porcelain mortar with an equal
quantity in weight of crystallized pure copperas (sulphate of iron),
and then mixed with some syrup of sugar, and the mixture is formed
into balls the size of a hen’s egg. These are heated between charcoal,
and are kept for ten minutes at a white heat. A subsequent solution in
pure (distilled or rain) water contains pure sulphate of manganese,
while the sediment contains the excess of oxide of manganese, mixed
with oxide of iron.

From this solution we
precipitate

carbonate
of manganese
,
by adding carbonate of soda. This precipitate, when sufficiently
washed out with water, is a white powder. When this has been dried,
powdered, and for some time exposed to the air, by being spread out on
paper, it is apt to take a yellowish color, if sufficient care has not
been used in its preparation ; this is owing to some oxide of
iron still present in it. To remove this the powder is dissolved in
diluted nitric acid, filtered through paper, precipitated by carbonate
of soda, and then properly washed in distilled water and dried.

From this white carbonate of
maganese one grain is dymanized for homœopathic use, as is done with
other dry medicinal substances ; or it is dissolved, by boiling
it in distilled vinegar, until a saturated solution is obtained, which
is then boiled down to the consistence of syrup (

Manganum
aceticum
). Of
the latter substance one drop, being taken as a unit, is
homeopathically dynamized like other fluid medicinal substances, by
means of one hundred drops of alcohol successively in each of thirty
attenuating vials.

Both of these preparations
have been used in the following provings of the pure effects of
Manganese.

This metal has proved
especially helpful where the following symptoms were present among
others, or predominated :

Diminution of the
senses ; burning of the eyes and dimness of vision by day ;
eyes closed by suppuration in the morning ; too frequent
discharge of flatus ; clotted and difficult stool ;
repeated, pappy stool during the day ; diseases of the larynx and
of the windpipe ;

chronic
hoarseness ; phthisis laryngea
;
intolerable pains of the periosteum and the joints ;
long-continued inflammatory swelling and suppuration of the little
finger ; shocks of the heart ; yawning ; heartburn.
