We may safely state, that the appearance of any work of the

be most acceptable to our country. 13ut the universally ac-

will, it is trusted, render the appearance of the present work
the more acceptable to all 'who desire to become acquainted
with the first Institution, and the many interesting events
which have accompanied the Progress, of the Church of
Christ. This volume, like its predecessors, gives abundant
proof of the diligent and extensive research of the Learned
Author. The history of the Greek schism, and of the
of the Roman Pontiffs with the Western Emperor —.vests

The Work which is now presented to the public is the result
of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affec-
tions, which fear some unaccountable reason have been either
altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in-
difference, by the et dinary practitioner. To enter into the
details of these affections, to point out their causes, and to
mark the terrific consequences, social, moral, and physical,
which are sure to follow from indulgence, in certain habits,
would be entirely out of place in an advertisement. We have
no hesitation, however, in saying that there is no member of
society, by whom the book will not he found interesting, whe-
ther we consider such person to hold the relation of a PA-
RENT, a PRECEPTOR, or a CLERGYMAN.

Messrs. CURTIS and CO. are to be consulted daily at their
residence, No. 7, Frith-street, Soho, from Ten till Three, and
Five till Eight in the Evening; and Country Patients are re-
quested to be as minute as possible in the detail of their cases,
—as to the duration of the complaint, the symptoms, age, ge-
neral habits of living, and occupation in life of the party ; the
communication must be accompanied by the " usual Consulta-
