Eleé&tor of Saxony), continues to dedi- 
cate his leifure hours to the promotion 
of farriery, and the knowledge of the 
horfe ;—-and the experienced BoUWING- 
HAUSEN has provided for next year like- 
wife inftru¢tion and entertainment for 
his numerous readers in his “ Tafchen- 
buch fir Pferde-Liebhaber, Pherde- 
Ziichter, &c.—Pocket-book for Ama- 
teurs of Horfes, Horfe-breakers, &c.— 
The fecond obfervation is, that the Bru~ 
nonian Syfiem of ‘Medicine daily gains 
more profelytes; and many a one, who 
till heficates openly to declare his defer- 
tion to the ftandard of excitability, 1s 
already in writing and deed a Crypto- 
Brunonian. The medical fchools of 
Vienna, Bamberg, and Wurzburg, feem 
now to be joined likewife by the younger 
fchool of Gottingen; and the orthodox 
adherents of the old fchool in Halle, Jena, 
and Berlin are daily more and more clofely 
preffled by their antagonifts. From 
- Vienna, CoarLes WERNER, fupport. 
ed by contributions from others, has fent 
forth the fecond volume of his ‘* Apo- 
logy for the Brunonian Sy ftem;” RoscH- 
LAUB, the doughty champion of Brown’s 
Theory, has completed the third volume 
of his “ Pathogony ;” and from Gor- 
tingen, CAPFELL gives. us ingenious: 
‘< Beitrdge zur Beurtheilung des Brown- 
ifchea Syftems’—Contributions towards 
an Examination of the Brunonian Syf- 
tem; and LIrFMANN endeavours to ex- 
hibit it in a new point of view. The 
“ Tournal for Speculative Medicine,” by 
SCHELLING of Jena, goes on; and of 
Ritrer’s (of fena) * Galvanifm,’” the 
fourth number is announced in the Cata- 
logue. Even HuFELAND, in his “ Syf- 
tem of Praétical Medicine,’ which was 
diftributed laft furmmer, fheet by, fheet, 
to the ftudents attending his leétures, and 
completed at Michaelmas, feems to con- 
fider it no difhonour to him to approach 
with gentle fleps towards chat fy tem.— 
Mixed with thefe ferious refearches, there 
are not wanting various medical publi- 
‘cations of the lighterkind. Dr. Rercn, 
who received a penfion from the King of 
Pruflia, for his univerfal remedy for the 
fever, and now conttantly refides at Ber- 
lin, begins to difclofe to the world his 
theory of the fever: and the veteran 
BaLDINGeER fends forth a jeu d’efprit 
‘© On the Gunpowder of the Cannoneers, 
and the Emetic powder of the Phy- 
fictans.’ HurFELAND’s “ Macrobiotic,” 
continues to be ferved up in difhes of 
various fizes, forms, and taftes. At this 
625 
Michaelmas-fair, TreLitz gives us a 
Cue thereto; anda “Temple of Healrh” 
is opened to Ladies and Genelemen, once 
-amonth, in Altenburg.

pends upon makirg the nomenclature 
correétly correfpond in both languages, 
the edition publifhed by Cametina, in 
Vienna, is in particular to be recom- 
mended for having the German tranf-

pofite to one another. At the fame time, 
the fo long expe€ted edition of all Four- 
croy’s Works is announced from Bafle.— 
The befi and laft views of Phyfiology,
