    bitterly opposed to homoeopatby, together with the yet un- retracted personal calumnies of an influential portion of the public press, are likely to render a misrepresentation against me from a combined party more embarrassing and efiective than it could prove at any other time. I am, Sir, Your obedient servant, P. F. Curie, M.D. Thursday, March 27. The abovementioned declaration has since been extensively circu- lated in the form of a tract, hut without either my letter which drew it forth, or my subsequent remarks. In all cases where a statement is put forward to impeach the allegations or the reasons of another party it is recognized as a rule of common honesty, that the document containing those allegations or reasons should accompany such statement, or that each of the portions referred to should be distinctly quoted. It is to be regretted that, in the present instairce, a rule so sound and ob\uous should have been wholly disregarded.
