calves, sheep, goats, horses and swine: for each he studies the 
purchase and knowledge of the various breeds, the killing, prep¬ 
aration of carcasses, the remains, the skins, and the accessory

We have received the second part of this work, which treats 
successively of intoxications, of the diseases produced in men 
and animals by parasites, of constitutional and of cutaneous dis¬ 
eases. The work promises to be one which will render great 
service to the physician as well as to the veterinarian, as it will 
give to both an opportunity to obtain valuable information in 
the comparative pathology of each class of patients. The first 
intention of the author was to publish the work in three parts, 
but he announces that the original plan. is changed and that 
four parts will complete the work. The house in Leipzig, Von 
Wilhem Engelmann, are the publishers.
