It is unnecessary to say anything in repard to the 

 utility of this work. It is already appreciated in «ui 

 country for the value of the matter, the clearness ol 

 its style, and the fulness of its illustrations. To the 

 physician's library it is indispensable, while to the 

 student as a text-book, from which to extract the 

 material for laying the foundation of an education on 

 obstetrical science, it has no superior. — Ohio Med

A TKEATISE ON THE VENEHEAL DISEASE. By John Hunter, F.R.S. 



With copious Additions, by Ph. Ricord, M. D. Translated and Edited, with Notes, by Freeman 

 J. Bt;mstead. M.D , Lecturer on Venereal at the College of Physicians and Surgeons, New York. 

 {Second edition, revised, containing a resume of Ricorh's Recent Lectures on Chancre. In 

 one handsome octavo volume, extra cloth, of 550 pages, with eight plates. ®3 25. (Just Issued.) 

 In revising this work, the editor has endeavored to introduce whatever matter of interest the re- 

 cent investigations of syphilographers have added to our knowledge of the subject. The principal 

 source from which this has been derived is the volume of "Lectures on Chancre," published a few 

 months t-ince by M. Ricord, which affords a large amount of new and instructive material on many 

 controverted points. In the previous edition, M. Ricord's additions amounted to nearly one-third 

 of the whole, and with the matter now introduced, the work may be considered to present his views 

 and experience more thoroughly and completely than any other. 



Every one will recognize the auractiveness and secretaries, sometimes accredited and sometimes not. 

 value which this work derives from ihus presenting 

 the opinions of these two masters side by side. But, 

 it must be admitted, what has made the fortune of 

 the book, is the fact that it contains the "most com- 

 plete embodiment of the veritable doctrines of the 

 H6pital du Midi," which has ever been made public. 

 The doctrinal ideas of M. Ricord, ideas which, if not 

 universally adopted, are inconlesiabiy dominant, have 

 heretofore only been interpreted by more or less ibkilful 



In the notes lo Hunter, the master substitutes him- 

 self for his interpreters, and gives his original thoughts 

 to the world in a lucid and perfectly intelligible man- 

 ner. In conclusion we can say that this is incon- 

 testably the best treatise on syphilis with which we 

 are acquainted, and, as we do not often employ the 

 phrase, we may be excused for "expressing the hope 

 that it may find a place in the library of every phy- 

 sician. — Virginia Med. and Surg. Journal.

The profession is too well acquainted with the re- 

 putation of Rokitansky'a wfirk to need imr assur- 

 ance that this is one of the most profound, thorough, 

 and valuable books ever issued frctm the medical 

 press. It is awig-enerw, and has no standard of com- 

 parison. It is only necessary to announce that it is 

 issued in a form as cheap as is compatible with its 

 size and preservation, and its sale follows as a 

 matter of course. No library can be called com- 

 plete without it. — Buffalo Med. Journal. 



An attempt to give our readers any adequate idea 

 of the vast amount of instruction accumulated in 

 these volumes, would be feeble and hopeless. The 

 effort of the distinguished author to concentrate 

 in a small space his great fund of knowledge, has
