BRITISH COLLEGE of HEALTH.
Hamilton-Place New-road, London.
Tee principles of the HTGEIAN or MORISONIAN SYSTEM are
contained in the following propositions :-
1. The vital principle is in the blood.
2. Everything in the body is derived from the blood.
3. All constitutions are radically the same.
4. All diseases arise from impurity of the blood, or, in other words,
from acrimonious humours lodged in the body.
5. Pain and disease have the same origin ; and may therefore be
considered synonymous.
6. From the intimate connexion subsisting between mind and
body, the health of one must conduce to the serenity of the other.
7. Proper Purgation by Vegetables is the only effectual mode of
eradicating disease.
8. The discovery of a VEGET A.BE COMPOUND, capable of
being digested, and mixing with the blood, so as to impart to it
the energy requisite for ridding the body of all impurities, was a
desideratum.
9. This discovery was made by JAMES MORISON, the Hygeist,
in the composition of the VEGETABLE UNIVERSAL MEDICINE
(Morison's Pills) of the British College of Health, Hamilton-place,
New-road, London.

OBSERVATIONS ON THE TREATMENT OF SPERMATORIt-

BY F. B. COURTENAY,
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England.
"Those who complain most loudly are those only who know not
%tow to use the common instruments ..... The practice of sur-
geons has been married with all kinds of violence, an indifference
about the simple care of diseases, and a passion for operations and
has
all the excesses and horrors of surgery."—John Bell's Surgical
Observations.—" In proof of his views he (Mr. Courtenayas had
)
riven the history of a great many cases successfully treated,
as any which Mr. Sy-me adduced, and on which he had operated.
Such are cases ix., xi., xii., and xviii. No. ix. had resisted, for a
period of twelve years, the treatment by dilitation, and was finAliy
removed in as many weeks. But cases xviii. and xis. appear, both
in duration, severity, and complication of symptoms, of a more ag-
gravated character than any detailed by Mr. Syme, and yet the
Itreatment adopted by Mr. Courtenay proved eminently ,successful
