THE EDINBURGH JOURNAL of NA-
TURAL HISTORY ; with the ANIMAL KINGDOM,
by Baron CUVIER.
Conducted by Captain THOMA S BROWN, F.L.S., &c.
Assisted by eminent Scientific and Literary men.
" We assure our readers that we do not employ the least exag-
geration when we say, that this appears to us the very cheapest,
and the most splendid work published in numbers that even this
age can boast of. The strictly Linntean parts are introduced to the
reader by several written essay s, connected with the subject of Na-
tural History, which require for their own merits, as well as for a
preparation for what follcws to be carefully studied. We prognos-
ticate that when this undertaking shall be completed, it will form
the best book upon Natural History in the English language."—
Metropolitan Magazine.
" This promises well; the descriptions are written in a clear and
unaffected, yet sufficiently learned style, it may be received by the
scientific, and instruct and gratify the general reader. A number
of illustrative anecdotes follow each chapter, the production is
therefore rendered highly amusing; we recommend its introduction
into schools and families where knowledge is sought, but where
employment is also essential."—New Monthly 'Magazine.
" 'I his is the very first work of the kind, both in its composition
and leading features, as well as in the universality of its details,
which has yet appeared before the public. Each number appears
to be an improvement on its predecessor, and the entire series is
managed with admirable skill and taste. Admirable as the plates
are, however, the letter-press continues to interest us still more.
The translation of Cuvier, with the illustrative notes, appears to us
a masterly work. It is of itself worth more than the price of each
number.' "—Edinburgh Evening Post.

PRACTICAL OBSERVATIONS on STRIC-
TURES of the URETHRA and RECTUM, recommend-
ing an improved system for their treatment and cure ; illustrating
its efficacy by numerous remarkable and highly important cases, in
some of which Strictures of from ten to twenty years' duration have
been totally removed in a few weeks, and its superiority thereby
fully established over every other method hitherto practised.

" We earnestly recommend the cases related by Dr. Courtenay
to the perusal of such •f our readers as are afflicted with the com •
plaints which the author has made the subject of these observations.
Several instances ant adduced of the recovery of perfect health from
states which were considered hopeless by practitioners of eminent
talents and very extensive experience. We entertain the highest
opinion of Dr. Courtenay's professional skill, and congratulate him
on his successful and judicious application to these severe and often
fatal diseases."—European Magazine.
