    *#* A considerable part of the time allowed for preparing this Essay was entirely lost through indis- position ; another part was necessarily expended in performing the duties of House Surgeon to the Penn- sylvania Hospital. To the candid and intelligent reader, no further apology need be made, for the very superficial manner in tvhich the subject has been treated. Whoever has been engaged in an inquiry of this nature must be sensible, that it is absolutely necessary to be possessed of the most uninterrupted leisure, before any material progress can be made.
