| WI[SONIA :" AND PHYSICIANS,
New Article in the Series Every
 Friday.

At the conclusion of our last paper, allusion was made to forthcoming discussion of the affinity ex isting between the homeopathic law of cure tablished by Hahnemann, and, we hope to show. the active powers of magnetic currents in curing diaease when applied to the human body continu- ously By strict interpretation of the principle life. as laid down by him in his 'organon." Hahne mann defines the human organism as being main tained in its integrity. by which he calls "a vital sensation motion, of doing anything for its own preservation this immateral essence alone, antmats it. 1t Is an immsterial existence. force sui gene functions that constitute life.
 By this express the whole thought upon which mark that he calls this principle of life "a vital force, not vital forces. ard it is because of this organic functions In the words of one of his followers, 'The vital force of Hahnemann pres1des their furnent it ia an unit and specifc, and must not be oonfounded with the psychological force intellectual and norai This force Is m existenoe, indeed it cannot be conceived of otherwise it is power which the vital actions proceed. These, it has the power of creating, of watching and keeping in harmonious operation. Its permansnce in the midst of the changes which the organism dergoes implies it's essential existence, for 1t s pre- cisely the distinctive difference between life and the phenomena by which life is manifested. These last transient variable always different, but life is like itself always and does not cease to act single moment without ceasing to exist. The vital force is permanent, even to the very instant of the occur. renee of death does not vary in it's it does not touch, but it is special and an inmate rial existence"
 T060ef ries in medicine that have sprung up from time to time. have had their day. and vanished in turn, will see that Hahnemann avoided the errors of Van Hell mont who as . disciple of the school of Paracelsus nnanifestly inclined to modern materialism. He equally ignored the solidism Hoffman, the spirit ualisrn of Stahl, the humorslism of Sylvius de Is Boe, ths dualism of Brown, the spasm of Cullen and the irritation of Broussais
