" We never commence the Perusal of works on this malady with-
out preparing ourselves to meet most appalling descriptions of human
sufferings. It was, therefore, a most agreeable surprise to us to
find this error (as it appears to us) carefully avoided in this work,
and the subject treated in a common sense, and truly practical
manner. . . . No medical man should undertake the treatment
of Spermatorrhcea without first consulting this work."—Medical

impression which exists amongst some of his customers, that he has
retired, or is about to retire, from business. This impression (which
is entirely unfounded) has probably arisen in consequence of the re-
tirement and selling off of a jeweller of the same name, also of New

been, in any way connected, either in business or by relationship.

TO THE EDITOR.
SlR,—Thank God the people are b ginning to think for themselves
as to the medical treatment of their bodies. We have now before
us a list of the subocriptions to the London ilomceopathie Hospital,
patronised by the Duchess of Cambrid,e, his Grace the Duke of
Wellington in the chair, followed by a number of the nobility and
gentry. Surely this is a great thing to see, It shows that these
parties have emancipated themselves from the chariot wheels of the
medical Juggernaut. Some years ago such persons would have re-
coiled to see titer names published in opposition to the recognised
routine of treatment pursued by the iactrty. " Quicks and quackery"
would have resounded in their ears. Now all seems changed. We
would lust ask all the subscribers one question ; it Is this —What
eo they think of the medical libesty of the subject ? They must one
and all be supporters of that liberty, a liii3rty which we, Hygeists,
consider as paramount to all other nerties And who was it that
for the last thirty years have teen fighting for that liberty, and
spent thousands in its defence? W y, first, James Morison, the
Hygeist, aid his followers, who are to be Mend in all part- of the
world. Witty-nit medical liberty, neither the homceopaths nor any
other medical sect would have been allowed to promulgate their
♦iews. It was, in fact, the complete suppression of ell these thine,
that the abortive medical bills brought Into Parliament had in view,
although they professed to be 'or the good of the people. Nearly
thirty years ago doe ors attempted to stifle the spread of the Hygeian
system of James Morison ; and had it not been for the number of
converts to that system in all parts f the world, there is no doubt
that by the infamous manoeuvres adopted they would have suc-
ceeded. The great medical reformer, however, in spite of all the
opposition, maintained the medical liberty of Vie subject as inherent
to every Englishm an, rte d now do we see the fruit thereof.
The public will perceive that the supporters of hcmces•aathy are at
iskue with the allopathic or generality of doctors, and we repeat that
twenty years ago it would have been thought the most complete
heresy and quackery to have gone in the lace of the medical profes-
sion. Right or wrong, we honour the subscribers for thus asserting
the medical liberty of the subject and right of privatej udgMent The
medical journals of last week all denounce homoeopathy as downright
quackery; but what of that? They did the same thing thirty years
ago as regards the Hygeian system ; but in spite of everything, we
have only seen one thing, viz., that Hygeism is steadily progressing,
whereas doctors and their theories have gone down in public favour.
We repeat, " a house divided against itself cannot stand," and such
being the case with the medical body, it cannot stand, at least as now
constituted. We are, sir, your obedient servants,
THE MEMBERS of the BRITIS a COLLEGE of HEALTH,
for the Society of Ilygehts.
