    Cyclopsedia of Practical Medicine continued. This Cyclopaedia is pronounced on all hands to be one of the most valuable medical publications of the day. It is meant to be a library of Practical Medicine. As a work of reference it is invaluable. Among the contribu- tors to its pages it numbers many of the most experienced and learned physicians of the age, and as a whole it forms a compendium of medical science and practice from which practitioners and students may draw the richest instruction.—Western Journ. of Med. and St(rgery. '•In our last number we noticed the publication of this splendid work by I-ea and Blanchard. We have since received three additional parts, an examination of wliich lias confirmed us in our first impression, that as a work of reference lor the practitioner—as a cyclopa;dia ofpractical medicine—it is admirably adapted tothe wants of the American profession. In fact, it might advantageously find a place in the library of any gentleman, who has leisure and taste for looking somewhat into the nature, causes, and cure of diseases.—Western Joxirnalof Med. and Surgery. The favourable opinion which we expressed on former occasions from the specimens then before us, is in no degree lessened by a further acquaintance with its scope and execution.''—Medical Examiner. ■•In conversation with practising physicians, we liave been gratified to find that this work comes fully up to the high expectations formed of it irom the complimentary notices of the .Tournals. and that as a work of reference it is regarded as superior to any thing hitherto published on Practical Medicine.—Western Journal of Med. and Surgery. *^* In reply to the numerous inquiries made to them, respect- ing Tvveedie's Library of Practical Medicine, the Publishers beg leave to state that its place is supplied, in a great measure, by the CyclopEedia of Practical Medicine, a work much more extended in its plan and execution. The works are entirely distinct and by different authors. The Library consists of essays on dis- eases, systematically arranged. The Cyclopsedia embraces these subjects treated in a more extended manner, together with numerous interesting essays on all important points of Medical Jurisprudence, Materia Medica and Therapeutics, Obstetrics, History of Medicine, &c., &c. by the first physicians of England, the whole arranged alphabetically for easier reference.
