Translated from the French of M. Saint-Arroman (Philadelphia) 1846. Saint-Arroman reported that chocolate, while suited to the aged and the weak, was dangerous if drunk by the young. His recipe for medicinal chocolate that treated chlorosis in women, included iron filings.
He was also the author of the brief essay L’Anthanasie de Cabanis, ou la Society Française Médecine Légale des incurables, à l’usage des médecins et du clergé (Bordeaux:Balarac), 1857.
His response to the Fourierists was published in the form of a Réponse à M. le Doctor Arthur de Bonnard sur sa brochure intitulée: Organisation d’une commune sociétaire d’après la théorie de Charles Fourier (Paris: Desloges) 1845. In the revolutionary year of 1848 he briefly served as editor of a Journal illustré écrit en l"honneur des gardes mobiles.
The Journal published only two issues, 6 and 13 August.
