Mental suggestion.. — By Dr. J. Ocliorewicz. Four double 

 numbers of the Humboldt Library. Price $1.20. Tlie Hum- 

 boldt Publishing Co., New York. — Much is now-a-days said and 

 written about hypnotism. It is the common belief that wiiat- 

 ever of truth there was in the doctrines of Mesmer and the rest 

 of the " animal mao:netizers " is comprised under the scientific 

 term "' hypnotism," and that the modern school of '" sugges- 

 tionists," represents the highest attainment in the science and 

 art once studied and practiced by Mesmer and Puysegur, and 

 later investigated by Braid, of Manchester. But here is an 

 author who maintains that liypnotism and animal magnetism, 

 though they have certain superficial resemblances, are radically 

 difi'erent from each other in their phenomena and in the modes 

 of their production, and that the facts of magnetism are incom- 

 parably the more wonderful and the more worthy of scientific 

 stud}'. The title of the work, " Mental Suggestion,' well marks 

 this teaching as to the difference between hypnotism and mag- 

 netism. The author is a learned physiologist and physicist, as 

 well as ps3''chologist, and he has studied the matter experimen- 

 tally for many years.
