Although the tecsin of alarm has so 
frequentiy been reiterated, it ought never 
generate a susceptibility 
strength or regenerate the character of to cease, until the inhabitants of this

are, in the majority of instances, the 
suitable and perhaps the ouly citectual 
remedies, 
Triding with, and teasing the eye 
with drops of lotion or particles of un- 
guent, is only betraying the patient into 
a flattering but faithless anticipation of 
recovery, without any chauce of eradi- 
cating or even reaching the stamina of 
his disease, 
To the reader it must be wearisome, 
as it is pamful to the writer, nearly every 
month to have occasion to repeat an ac- 
island are suiliciently roused to a sense 
of the high and awrul importance of at- 
tending to the faiitest semblance of, 
and checking even an incinjent ap- 
proach towards, pulmonary disease. In 
the pthysically predisposed, a very tri- 
fling cough may be a very serious evil: 
when, to an unlearned or inexperienced 
eye, there appears not a shadow of peril, 
‘there is often actually the most solid 
ground forapprehension, Danger isin the 
‘inverse ratio of alarm. 
It cannot be too frequently repeated, 
or too strongly enforced, that pulmonary 
count of the still increasing profusion of .affections when they have devenerated 
pulmonary disorders. But it is the in- 
cumbent, although the uncomfortable, 
duty of a medical practitioner, who has 
too frequent opportunities of observing 
it, to watch and to warn the public of 
the almost diurnal advancement of this 
cruel and fastly encroaching malady. 
AS it isa disease, a disposition to which 
is inherited, it cannot fail to grow in its 
influence and extent with every suc- 
ceeding generation. Modern dress, like- 
wise manners and habits are particularly 
calculated to awaken a dormant ten- 
rato deep and extensive ulceration, can 
rarely be removed; but that on the other 
hand, the instances are perhaps as few, 
in which they may not, by timely and 
skilful care, be arrested in their progress, 
and thus prevented from arriving at the 
ultimate and irretrievable condition of _ 
the complaint, where a prescription can 
answer no other valuable purpose, than 
that of affording a pecuniary advantage 
to the professional prescriber.

AA complete Collection of Haydn’s, Moxart’s, 
and Bectloven’s Symphonies in Score. Dedi- 
cated to the Prince of Wales. Price to Sub- 
scribers 5s. to Non-Subserivers 8s. 
Te Work, of which we have the 
first Number betore us, is projected 
aud published by Cianchettini aad Spe- 
rat. Their plan includes all the univer- 
sally admired, productions of the above 
distinguisied masters; two of whase sym- 
Phonics will be printed every month. 
We have examined the score of the pre- 
sent piece, taken from Haydn, and find 
it aS correct as itismeat. The size is 
that of a quarto, which: being conveni- 
ently portable, will aford to professors 
and scientific amateurs the agreeable op- 
portunity of comparing the composition 
with the eifect in concert, and of tracing 
the secret source of those impressions, 
which it.is so much easier to receive 
than to account for.

claims upon our commendation. Most 
of the passages are marked with learning 
and sound theory; and many of them, 
while they evince the well educated mu- 
sician, display a freedom and elegance of 
fancy with which every real critic must 
be pleased. Yet we cannot, in strict 
justice, omit to say, that the cifort to bind 
and consolidate the harmony, and render 
it perfectly organic, has in atew imstances 
betrayed Dr. Crotch into constructions 
hot positively currect, and which, though 
they would not, perhaps, offend an ordt 
nary ear, cannot fail to strike the acute 
observer.

Master Cutler, with the grea est Applause, 
Compused by C. E. Horn. 15. 6d. 
Fhe words of this song ae from the 
-ne words o s song are from the 
nse of lady Blizard: sorry are we that 
we cannot compliment her ladyship on 
her choice of a composer, To say that 
Mr. Horn has not followed the sertiment 
of the poetry would be saying little: he 
has not followed any seutiment at all. 
The passages are inexpressive, awe we
