35 $ Dr. Garth shore’s 'Remarh, See, 
true account of the oeconomy of nature in this particular* 
which has every appearance of probability, thofe numerous 
births mud: occafioti a very fruitlefs profufion and wafte of the 
human race, and become every way detrimental to its increafe. 
From the united teflimony of all the foregoing cafes, it is 
undeniably clear, that the females of the human fpecies, 
though mod: commonly uniparous, are, in certain circumftances 
to us unknown, every now and then capable of very far ex- 
ceeding their ufual number; and I mud: again repeat, that it 
does not appear that we can fet any bounds to the powers of 
nature in that refped ; or pretend, as fome have done, with 
certainty to fay, what may be the utmod: limits of human 
fertility.
