    PREFACE. The ensuing pages, after but a short interval from the period of their first pub- lication, and under the following circum- stances, are again submitted to the medical public. Originally published in one of the medical journals of this country, while a wide circulation was in many respects given to them ; others, not having access to such periodical, were thus unable to peruse them. To supply such deficiency, of which the writer has had sufficiently gratifying inti- mation, more especially from the members of the State Medical Society, a large num- ber of whom remain unfurnished with a copy, the present edition has been under- taken. To enhance whatever merit the work may possess, it has been carefully revised, both as regards its composition, and the opinions it conveys. 1*
