stiu'es his only o6encc--making science too
popular, and putting kno,Uledgc ,oiihin the reach
Of AT! this be crime, he pleads gully, and
would rather suffer the penalty than be declared
innocent.
The simple question is, whether the public have
right to receive this knowledge. Dr. H. SAYS
they hare the right his opponents say they have
not, but that knowledge is the sole birhright of
certain individuals, and that ii is criminal in 9TH
ers to attempt to gain it, They further show, by
their proceedings, that if DIR. III. persists in his
attempt to break down this monopoly in knowl-
edge, they will spare expense, and scrupe at
no means, 10 put him down In this emergency,
tho Doctor simply throws himself upon the public
and says: take ma stand here on niu rights,
as man. and an american citizen III tri-
unph, IL IS simply uindicaiion of popular,
rights; If am crushed, then is The mental lib
crty Of euery man in The community assailed."
Until the trial comes on, Dr. III. will be occu
pied in preparing, that the +" Report of it
shall be complete, and contain more Information
and more exposures than any other book on the
subject ever published. He also begs to announce,
for the qualification of his friends that he in
tends permanently locating in Philadelphia, the
interest they have excited in his behalf being SO
great that he cannot think of leaving.
lie also assures them that the system of prac-
tice and public instruction which he has begun,
shall be continued, until every vestige of that
vulgar mystery and deception with which some
desire to Shroud this subject shall BIO removed.-
Or. III however, wishes it TO be understood dis
tlncty that in these remarks he does not alIude
to the respectable and enlightened members of
the profession, not of whom, so far as he is
aware, has disgraced himself by being concerned
in these proceedings. He merely audes to those
who have just sense sufficient to be aware ofiheir
own inSiGnificance and who are afraid that if The
people become enlightened they will have to sink
10 their proper level

most respectable standing in this and other cities
