 every fourth day, and is now nearly healed ; her sjeuerai 

 health is good ; and she has been enabled to a! lend the do-

On this occasion I am extremely happy in havin"- the

At is admitted on all hands, that for the proiiress that has 

 been made in chemistry within the last thirty years, we are. 

 much indebted to the improvements that have been introt^
