In
laying before- our Readers the foil:owing let-
ters on a very important subject, we cannot ab-
stain from offering a few remarks. The ittiety
of Dr. HARN'tss on a point so highly honoarahte
to him, as the introduction, of the System alluded
to in these Doeuments,—a system which has liett
the source of so much comfort, and, we may add,
of so. much glory to. the British Navy,---is tOo
natural and commendable to require enmtnerq:—
In an age wherein the philosophical application
of long known but unappropriated truths to the
amelioration of ImManity has. 'raised many indiri-
'dn;Als to eminence. , this discovery of Dr. HArtNte.s
entitles him to take rank among- that number, as
a distingnished benefaetor of his fellotv-creatittes.
We cannot, therefore, but join in the regret
expressed that :Sir G. BeAtca Ginnie(' to record in
his publication, a due testiinnov of the merits of
this most beneficial Work.. ,To say that Leptons,
or Lembo juice, were employed in the Navy a
hundred .years. ago, detracts nothing from • the
service rendered to his Country by IV. HARNESS'
its 1793, when proceeding on his own. expe-
rience, and generalizing and applying in a man-
ner entirely new., the chemical reasoning-stated
in his Letter to Lord AIELVILLP., he introduced
into the Navy that process which has Since' §o
mainly contributed to the health of the men and
the effectiveness of their helligerent•operations.—
Sailors .m4,,,tit sock lemons in lEoo—so had milk
maids, in thury=counties, the Cow-pock at that

ttz
the mighty merit of having discovered that
mortal secret which, though it lay on the sur-
face, was yet so long hid from the eyes cif
mankind--:the practice. of vaccination as a pre-
vent:ttive of small-fox. On pr,.eisely similar
groomis does Doctor HARNESS stand with re-
spect to the arlieation of Citric-el:cid, and ecitiO-
ly does he deserve the gratitudeof his Country.----.
