Ina country where fo much monu- 
mental refpett is paid to departed genius, 
the admirers of the fine arts have long 
regretted that no memorial, except his 
ewn works, was raifed to the memory of 
Sir Jofhua Reynolds: Thofe who pro- 
‘perly appreciated his talents and talte, 
will be pleafed to hear that Flaxman has 
nearly finifhed the fine monument which 
the Marquis of Thomond propofes to 
erect to his memory.

Of fome of the former foecimens of

in the way of being rapidly much im-

expectation realized, in an additional

lithed; and which is in fome refpecis fu-

Morbi Infantiles or 
Affeétions of the fin hold a confpicu- 
ous. rank in the above catalogue ; but it 
ought to be confidered that there is 
fearcely any affection, ftri¢tly and exclu- 
ively cutaneous, it being for the mott 
art an Index of a depraved ftate of the 
- general habit, and, of courfe, to be re- 
moved by internal and general, not by 
faperficial and partial, applications. Much 
injury is often done by unguents and 
lotions, which remove merely the. exter- 
nal appearance,not the interior exilience, 
of the difeafe; which latter is, by thefe 
means, likely to be rendered full more 
inveterate, and radically deftructive.. The 
Reporter has not long fince obferved fe- 
veral inftances in which fimple ablation 
has appeared to anfwer the defred - pur- 
pote, after a variety of compound and 
artificial un¢tions had been im vain ap- 
plied. Perhaps there is not a better re- 
cipe in the pharmacopoca for fuch cafes 
than is to be. found in one of the pert 
odical papers of the World: 
“ Take of fair clear water, guautum 
fufficit, put it into a clean earthen or 
china bafon, then take a clean linen 
cloth, dip it in that water, and apply it 
to the part affected night and morning, 
or oftener as occalion may require.” 
The head is apt to be particularly af 
fected by the repreffion of cutaneous 
eruptions, on which account, inftead of 
checking, it may fometimes be more late 
and expedient to encourage, rather their 
continuance and further extention. The 
- Reporter, however, is not precifely of the 
opinion of thofe who contider plora and 
other arialogous complaints, as remedial 
and falutary diforders. 
 Confamption, or what is regarded as 
fuch, ftill continues to occur in a number 
difproportionate to that of other difeates. 
The femblance, however, is much more 
frequent than the reality, There 1s
