    NATURE OF CHOLERA INVESTIGATED. BY JOHN GEORGE FRENCH, MEMBER OF THE ROYAL COLLEGE OF SURGEONS IN LONDON; RESIDENT SORGEON TO THE INFIRMARY OF ST. JAMES, WESTMINSTER 5 AND FORMERLY SURGEON TO ST. JAMES’S CHOLERA HOSPITAL, “It is only when we are wandering and lost in the mazes of particulars, or entangled in fruitless attempts to work our way downwards in the thorny paths of applications, to which our reasoning powers are incompetent, that nature ap- ‘pears complicated :—the moment we contemplate it as it is, and attain a position from which we can take a commanding view, though but of a small part of its plan, we never fail to recognize that sublime simplicity on which the mind rests satisfied it has attained the truth.’’—Sir J. HerscHe. LONDON : PUBLISHED BY J. G. AND F. RIVINGTON, 72, ST, PAUL’S CHURCHYARD, AND 3, WATERLOO PLACE. MDCCCXXXV.
