By the Editor.

"Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent pract-
eat contributions to German medical literature. This is the first
time. he informs us. that he has addressed himself to the 11011-111CAB-
aal reader. We trust this may not bo the last, If he shall detect any
other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his power to cor-
rect."—London Medical Gazettb. "The tribe of ' Quiet iVin pathisers,
and 'Medical Friends,' are mercilessly ezposed ; and If this book
could find its way into the hands of those who ft.r from the com-
plaint of which it treats, we are satisfied that many hundreds would
be saved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is of
less Importance; thotigh it is that which the quacks moat prize—
much money.... ~This volume is welt qualified to put an end to tht
empirical systn: of treating Spermatorrhosa, and to place the treat-
ment upon a more rational and physiological basis. It is, therefore;
ikely to do much good."—Medical Circular.
