Not from the Recorder but from Kent I found the following in a search on the word Vaccination:-
From his Lesser writings:-
In vaccination when a new disease comes on the former is suspended during the time, and comes on again even through the cruse had not formed. This is related as most wonderful, but this the Homoeopath understands. Syphilis makes symptoms of Scrofula to disappear in the same way and after Mercury subdues the Syphilis, then the Scrofula comes back. One occupies some hidden precinct in the economy while the other is active .
The sensitive state has been produced by a peculiar atmosphere and cholera is the result, or small-pox is the result. It it be the latter disease that is prevailing all people not protected become susceptible, and the poison or noxious influence takes life in the negative condition of the medium. If the poison or cause be attenuated to such a plane that the most sensitive person is only slightly disturbed by proving it, the terrible disease can be prevented. It would seem better to protect from small-pox in this way than to vaccinate. Either by vaccination or neutral contagion there is a monster poison in the economy. Who dare talk of filth and ignore the fact that the natural contagion is more than the charge? If the small-pox virus is so subtle that even when diluted with millions of volumes of atmospheric air is yet a poison, who can say what attenuation may not produce the disease until faithfully tried on sensitive persons. The trial in a season when small-pox does not prevail would not satisfy the enquiry, as the sensitive ones ore not manufactured so frequently. The trial then of a single person could not better the matter. The proving of all attenuations of variolinum would be a great gain to our philosophy, as the provings of the morbific products have helped the study of our chronic miasm. Dr. Fincke has made a good beginning toward finding out what the variolium will do.
