    A PRACTICAL APPEAL TO THE PUBLIC, jfc THROUGH A SERIES OF LETTERS, IN DEFENCE OF THE NEW SYSTEM OF PHYSIC BY THE ILLUSTRIOUS HAHNEMANN; WHO COMMENCED HIS HONOURABLE CAREER IN GERMANY, THIRTY YEARS AGO. AS A HOMOEOPATHIC PHVSICIAN; AND CONTINUES STILL, THOUGH NOW AN OCTOGENARIAN, TO PROSECUTE HIS PROFESSION OF MEDICAL FAITH WITH PROGRESSIVE'SUCCESS, FROM A SYSTEM FOUNDED UPON REASON, TRUTH, AND LONG EXPERIENCE, ALREADY CONFIRMED BY INCONTROVERTIBLE FACTS, AUTHENTICATED BY A CLOUD OF RESPECTABLE WITNESSES IN DIFFERENT PARTS OF EUROPE AND AMERICA; WHICH, IF INTRODUCED AND VERIFIED IN THE BRITISH DOMINIONS ALSO, WILL SPEEDILY BE HAILED THERE AS THE MOST USEFUL AND CONSEQUENTLY THE GREATEST DISCOVERY OF ANY AGE, AND A REAL BLESSING TO FUTURE GENERATIONS, WHEN ASSAILED BY THE CHOLERA MORBUS, AND OTHER FATAL DISEASES, WHETHER CHRONIC OR ACUTE. A Variety of Candid Remarks and Desultory Observations are likewise subjoined, on HAHNEMANN'S ORGANUM; which may be justly styled his Gospel of Medi- cinal Redemption to perishing Patients in the hands of their well-meaning but deluded Physicians, who may thus procure a seasonable supply of Genuine Cordial Drops from the True Balm of Gilead, extracted from the Homoeopathic Laboratory, for the general Benefit of Mankind, and the particular Consolation of every Hypochondriac Dyspeptic Nervous Sufferer in the known World.
