This Work, a Seventh Edition of which is now presented to
the public, ten thousand copies have been exhausted since its
first appearance, has been very much improved and enlarged
by the addition of a more extended and clear detail of general
principles, as also by the insertion of several new and highly in-
teresting cases. The book, as has been already stated, is the
result of very ample anti daily increasing experience in a class
of diseases, which, for sonic unaccountable reason, have been
either altogether overlooked, or treated almost with indiffer-
ence, by the ordinary ineifical practitioner. The proverbial
and welt .known rapacity, of tinqualitied practitioners, who
traffic on the health and credulity of patients, has been en-
couraged and aroused by this supineness, on the part of the
regular surgeon. In order to obviate the pernicious effects
sure to result from *the practices of such pretenders, the
authors have fur a considerable time devoted themselves ex-
clusively to a certain class of diseases; of the necessity of se
doing, they were further convinced by feeling that. tact in in-
vestigating the latent sources of many diseases, which arise

of its real cause, has. down to the score of con-
sumption, will, en perusing this work, be astonished to find,
that in nine-tenths of the cases of young persons of both
sexes, who perish of whathis called pulmonary consumption,
heart disease, tapes, &c.,t e sole and exclusive origin has
been the indulgence in certain destructive habits practised by
youth much more frequently than it is at all suspected.
The PRECEPTOR, also, who ily
olds (temporarily at
least), the relation and re.sponsibi of a parent, will,
by. perusing this work, -De directed and very much
assisted in investigating and
detecting the too often con-
cealed practices so often introduced into schools, whereby the
health and ultimately the lives of his pupils are sure to be com-
promised, unless the evil be arrested in proper time. He will
here find a clue to guide him through the intricate mazes of
this moral labyrinth, and a standard whereby to judge, when
delicacy of health should appear to attack any of his young
charges, what the real causes of such attack may be, and thus
he will be enabled to check the evil in its incipient state.
The CLERGYMAN, in whose sacred character is at once
concentrated the two-fold relation of parent and instructor, will
here be directed as to the nature of those habits to which
yisuth is addicted ; he will also be enabled to point out the dis-
astreui.Consequences which are sure to follow from them if not
relinquished.
