treated, to the best of their predecessors, and like those which 
they immediately follow, will not fail to post the attentive 
reader in all that is new and progressive in veterinary experi¬ 
ence and discovery, including all the achievements which 
have marked the progress of veterinary medicine in the last 
few years in Europe. 
Amongst the more prominent and important of the numer¬

mention of Pathology, by M. Trasbot; Diseases of the Skin, 
by Mr. Cadeac ; of the Penis, by Mr. Cadiot; of the Peri¬ 
cardium, by Mr. Trasbot; Contagious Pleuro-Pneumonia, 
by Mr. Peuch, and Diseases of the Peritoneum, by Mr. Labat. 
In Volume XVII, which forms a book of six hundred pages,

Guttural Pouches, and on Veterinary Sanitary Police, both 
by Mr. Peuch. Besides these, there are many others on 
topics and of a quality which render the work such a maga¬

which, when finished, will form the most complete and prob¬ 
ably the ablest work of its kind in our literature. 
“ANIMAL PHYSIOLOGY,” by Wesley Mills, M.A., M.D., L.R.C.P., (Engl.), 
Professor of Physiology in McGill University, and the Ve f erinary College of 
Montreal. (D. Appleton & Co., N. Y. City). 
Although the publication of this work of the able profes¬ 
sor of the Montreal Veterinary College follows closely that 
of a kindred treatise, the “ Physiology of the Domestic Ani¬ 
mals,” by Dr. R. M. Smith, they vary somewhat in their 
scope and treatment, inasmuch as the work of Dr. Mills does
