IVEILL ON DISEASES OF THE HyE. This Work
111 treats on the Cure of CATARACT, l)y an operation less
painful, more speedily accomplished, and more certain in its
success, than the operations in general use.
" Our author gives a tabular view of the Diseases of the
Eye which fell under his treatment, with a history of some
of these, which proves him to be a scientific surgeon, and an
excellent operator. His explanation of the operations for
CATARACT is good; while his narrative of cases of blind-
ness, cured by operation, must not only be gratifying to him-
self, as well as to the governors of the Liverpool Ophthalmia
Infirmary, but to the public."
" We copy the following interesting cases from Neill's
Clinical Report of the Diseases of the Eye, as redounding to
the credit of the operator, and to the state of surgery in pro-
vincial hospitals."—LondonMedical and Surgical Journal.

replete with every species of offal and myriads of a ninialculw,
and to convert it forthwith into an enliveng, wholesome, and

most difficult problems of science which thousands

WHOLESOME MODE OF FILTRATION ; " as a proof of the
fidelity of this remark, it will be sufficient" observe, that
during the prevalence of the fatal fever that has lately per-
vaded the metropolis, not a public establi,hment or private
residence in which the Royal Filters had been adopted was
visited by the scourge : the advantages of theit
discoverylhas
already raised up a host of humble imitators, but NNI be
found that all other apparatus are imperfect in action,subject
to constant disarrangement, and in many cases render the
use of the water dangerous to health. It is only necessary to
add, that the Royal Filters are protected by her Majesty's
Letters Patent ; that they have been adopted in all the royal
residences, the various branches of the Public Service, her
Majesty's Navy, and the Mansions and Residences of more
than 180,000 Families throughout the Kingdom. To render
the invention of general benefit, it has been proposed to the
Patentee by the most influential members of the College of
IYsicians to reduce the prices in order to render them avail.
