Syphilis, and other frequently fatal complaints, to' be
worthy of the highest encomiums, and justly deserving the
serious attention of all those persons who may unfortunately
happen to he afflicted with the maladies which form the
subject of this very interesting publication. The luminous
views taken of these diseases, together with important
warnings against excesses, entitle this work to great praise;
and we may add, as a further recommendation, that it is
