N this excellent treatire Mr. Kirwan enumerates the' dif- 

 ferent mincralifing fubftances which have been found in 

 mineral waters; explains by what lefts the prefence of thofe 

 mineralilers, whether fuiiple or in a (late of combination, is 

 to be dete6led in the waters in which they exift ; and treat?, 

 with eminent (kill and accuracy, of the methods of procefs 

 by which the lefts are to be the moft fuccefsfuUy employed 

 in the analyfis of the waters. Tables are fubjoined of the 

 quantities of real acid in mineral acids of different denfities; 

 of the quantities of acid abforbed by different bafes ; of the 

 quantity of each bafis abforbed by each acid ; of the propor- 

 tion of inorredients in neutral falls ; of the length of a column 

 of common air at diHerent barometrical heights and different 

 temperatures. Genius, patience, and accuracy of inveftiga- 

 tion, and an cxtenfivc acquaintance with the labours of other 

 chemifts at home and abroad, are eminently confpicuous in 

 this ufcful work. It has likewife the merit of being better 

 written, as a literarv compofition, than moft Englifli books 

 upon chemical or phyfical fcience that have fallen into our 

 hands. 



The Clinical GuicJe ; or, A concife Vieiv of the leading FuSf$ 

 in the IS a lure and Treafment of Difeci/es. By WiLLlAM 

 NisBET, M.D. &'c. 3 ^'ols. i2mo. Johnfon, Saint 

 Paul's Church-vard. 



This compreheufive and well written work, the produftion 

 of Dr. Nifbet, of Pickering-place, St. James's-ftreet, includes, 

 in thefe three volumes, a view of the prefent practice of me- 

 dicine, furgery, and midwifery, A fourth volume, on the dif- 

 eafes of chiklren, is, we believe, to be foon added, to com- 

 plete the author's defign. A work, uniting, more correftly, a 

 larger proportion of rational thcorv with found practical in- 

 foxiaation concerning the fubjeots of which it treats, will 

 ndfbe ealily named. We need, fcarcelv recomniend it; for 

 the public already know, and iiighly approve its merits.
