r him the cordial good wishes that he

 has achieved what will assuredly be cere 

 is. Of the two numbers which bring tlie 

 ' Dictionary of Practical Medicine ' to a close, we 

 can now only say that they prove the careful attentioii 

 which the author continues to pay to the medical 

 literature of the day : it may suffice to point to the 

 complete manner in which he discusses the subjects 

 of syphilisation, the most recent views regarding the 

 parasites infesting the human body, and the re- 

 searches into the histology and pathology of the 

 supra-renal capsules. A very complete Index is 

 appended, which materially facilitates reference, and 

 which the more deserves acknowledgment, because, 

 from the contents of the work being alphabetically 

 arranged, some authors might have thought them- 

 selves at liberty to save themselves the tedious 

 labour of compiling an index as well as a ' Classified 

 Contents.' The latter not only affords a very useful 

 summary of the subjects elaborated in the body of 

 the work, but serves also as a guide to the author's 

 views on the classification of disease. Indeed, he has 

 been true to himself, and we have little doubt that 

 his cotemporaries and posterity will concede that his 

 ' attempt ' ' to arrest the attention, to engage it with 

 an unflagging interest, to infix what is important or 

 undisputed on the memory, and to carry on the 

 mind, by an enlightened induction to a due recog- 

 nition ot pathological principles and of therapeutical 

 intentions' and precepts,' has been fully realised, 

 Thirty years of his lii'e have been devoted to the 

 work by the author, and he has* we are told, laboured 

 on it alone and unassisted. To him alone, therefore, 

 belongs that full meed of praise wuioh such devotion, 

 such labour, such energy deserve."
