In the pursuance of the medical treatment adopted By him in all diseases of a tuberculous nature, we have thought it desirable to present to the public the prominent characteristics of his system and mode of cure, in a more brief and popular form than is con- tained in his larger published works. We have therefore condensad from them, in this pamphlet, his views of the motive power-of the hu- man system, and of the nature and operation of his magnetic remedies. During the last fifteen years many thousands of persons, in every part of the country, have been cured of tuberculous or scrofulous disease by the treatment of Dr. Sherwood, and the requests we are daily receiving for information are so numerous, and from so many distant quarters, that we find it almost impossible to give them attention.
