what fund the rewards to the deserving student? — from what 
fund the salary of your new Professor, — for you soon must have one, 
and that for the simple reason, that there is not the man upon earth 
who , single-handed , can do justice to the pathology of the horse, 
cattle , sheep, swine , and the other domesticated animals. Some 
essential portion, or the whole, must be grossly neglected. We 
speak strongly, but we speak respectfully, and not unmindful of 
what you have already done.

copses. Scarifications, and the frequent application of the hydro- 
chlorate of ammonia to the wound, and the administration of it 
internally in doses of an ounce in a pint and a half of water, will 
prevent all danger. 
Cancerous ulcers, involving the lips and maxillary bones, and 
producing extensive caries of these bones, will be hereafter treat- 
ed of. 
Dentition, and the Teeth generally. 
The process of dentition, and the protrusion of the teeth, have 
considerable influence on the crises of various disorders, and are 
particularly connected with certain swellings and other diseases of 
the head. They continue until the animal is between five and six
