illustrated by forty coloured engravings on the anatomy, physiology,

Doctor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the University of
Edinburgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Mall, London, Honorary
Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, &C.
This treatise is the result of a long course of study in a peculiar and
much neglected branch of medical practice, and the author haying ob-
tained the highest medical honours, is a guarantee for his profes-
sional experience, which has reference almost solely to the treat-
ment of these diseases.
REVISW Or Tllll WORK.
La'Mert on the Infirmities of Touth and Maturity.—" There are
scenes in the drama of life which are acted with no spectator but
Conscience ; and of these the result is ever disastrous. Happy the
mortal who meets with a timely mentor to snatch him from the gulf
into which sti,:h scenes must plunge him ! In the book before as
such a monitor is to be found, calculated to warn and instruct the
erring, without impairing one idea that can vitiate a mind not al-
ready tutored by the vices of which it treats. It is written in a style
of masterly precision and lucidity, blending the profoundest truths of
philosophy and physics with the loftiest precepts of morality. It is a
production calculated to confer a vital benefit, physically and morally,
upon all who are tempted from the rigid path of abstemiousness and
propriety. A father may trust it in the hands of his boy. Fly un
taught innocence the book is not, of course, needed ; but wherever
laxity has prevailed, the tender yet awful voice breathing in these
pages is likely to prove as strikingly beneficial as the admonitions of
a homily blended with the practical advice of a writer on medicine."
