The 'ANATOMY of DRUNKENNESS. By RO-
BERT MACNISEI, Member of the Faculty of Phy-
sicians and Surgeons, Glasgow; The Third Edition, cor-
rected, in foolscap Svo. Price Six Shillings.
" This little book is evidently the production of a man
of genius. The style is singularly neat, terse, concise, and
vigorous, far beyond the reach of an ordinary nand. The
strain of sentiment is anch as does infinite honour to the
Authors heart; and the observation of human life, by
which every-page is characterised, speaks a bold, active,
and philoSophical intellect. As a medical treatise, it is
excellent': and to those who stand in need of advice and
warning it is worth a hundred sermons."—Blackwood's
Magazine.
" This is the most amusing of all medical, and most
medical of all amusing works."—London Weekly'Review.
" We take our leave of the author, assuring him that
we have-been much pleased and •interested with:his work.
It appears to -us to form the best essay on drunkenness
%Chic!' has been produced."—Monthly Magazine.

" We 7►ave said enough to recommend Mr: Macniah's
work to the whole reading and thinking -worid."—Li-
terary Gazette.
" New BOok for Drunkards.—A little work, called the
Anato►uy of Drunkenness, is offered for sale at most book-
stores, arid is one we most cordially recommend to be
placed in every place where there-is a tippler, a dissipated
sop, or a dyspeptic -brandy-drinker. In a few words, It
shows most conclusively, that even moderate genteel
Libbers are liable to a melancholy train of diseases. If
this is properly read, its influence will certainly be prp-
ductive of great good."—Boston (American) Ilullettin.

matched, should possess theniselves of this invaluable pub-

assert that he is one of the most enlightened Protestants iu
Christendom. the whole controversy stands: before his
mind in the order of perfect arrangement, and Mr. Cob-
bett appears like a child intho hands of a giant. Posterity
will gratefully acknowledge Its obligations to this incom-
Tarative advocate."—Evangelical Magazine.
