Argentum Nitricum.

Nitrate of Silver. AgO, NO5.

First prepared by the Arabians. Introduced into practice by Paracelsus. In olden times called Hell-stone, a prophetic name, indicating the horrible abuse of it in our age. See Skinner's pamphlet on Diseases of Women.

After the short proving of the 15th centesimal by Hahnemann (see his Materia Medica, 1813), it was not proved until Dr. J. O. Müller proved it and published one of the most learned treatises in medical literature, in 1845, in the Austrian Journal, under Watzke's editorship. See Vol. 2, 1846, page 1 to 112.

The late Grauvogl, who made it a kind of polychrest, supposed that the silver united with the chlorine always contained in water. Vol. II., 315.

This could only be ascertained by a proving of Argent mur., like that commenced by Dr. Lembke, Neue Zeitschrift fr Klinik, Vol. II., contained in Allen's Encyclopaedia, vol. 1., page 452, but not sufficient for comparison.
