    ADVERTISEMENT. 1 HE following Observations, which were written for viva voce delivery, as a discourse introductory to a series of Lectures on Toxicology, have been printed very nearly as they were pronounced. Some slight changes have been made, principally verbal ones, such as could not be avoided in preparing them for a destination differing considerably from that for which they were originally intended. Some addi- tions will also be observed, consisting of extracts and other passages, which, from a regard to economy of time, or other causes, were omitted in the delivery, and which have been here inserted.
