VAccINATIoN.--Dr Walter Claiming makes
a statement in the Nedical md Surgical ,Joiu-
nal which surely ought to dispel the last YES
tige of prejudice, still prevailing to some ex-
tent in the community, against vaccination. He
says that in a recent visit to DR.. Jackson, (now
SO years old) he asked him if he had met with
any instances, and how many, OF diseases of
any kind being introduced by vaccination. lie
said he had nerer met ,cHh an instance. To
this almost conclusive testimony, drawn from
the best experience of sixty years, DIR Charming
adds the result of his own observations for
more than half a century, as follows; Mot an
instance has been obserred By me Of tie intro
duction Of any disease by raccination.'
