    A.TLSaSTB.OTS&'S IiECTURESS. LECTURES on the MORBID ANATOMY, NATURE, and TREAT- MENT of ACUTE and CHRONIC DISEASES. By the late John Armstrong, M.D.; Author of Practical Illustrations of Ty-phous and Scarlet Fever, &c. Edited by Joseph Rix, Member of the Rojal Col- lege of Surgeons. 1 vol. 8vo. The British and Foreign Medical Revieio says of tliis work: We admire, in almost every page, the precise and cautious practical directions; the striking allusions to instructive cases; the urgent recommendations of the pupil to be careful, to be diligent in observation, to avoid hurry and heedlessness, to be atten- tive to the poor. Nothing can be more excellent than the txules laid down for -all the parts of Uie delicate management of fever .patients: nothing more judicious than the general instructions arising out of the lecturer's perfect knowledge of mankind. ..... His prudent admonitions respecting the employment of some of the heroic remedies, as mercury, arsenic, and colchicum, attest his powers of observation and his practical merits. The pious office of preserving and publishing his Lectures has been performed by Mr. Rix, with singular ability. A TREATISE on INSANITY and other DISEASES AFFECTING the MIND. By James Cowles Prichard, F.R.S. M.D. Corresponding Member of the Institute of France, &c. 1 vol 8vo. The author is entitled to great respect for his opinions, not only because he is well known as a man of extensive erudition, but also on account of his practical acquaint- ance with the subject on which he writes. The work, we may safely say, is the best, as well as the latest, on mental derangement, in the English language.—Medico-Chir. Rev. A TREATISE ON MENTAL DISEASES. Br M. Esquirol.

Dr. Millingen, in one small jjocket volume, has compressed more real solid matter than could be gleaned out of any dozen of octavos on the same sutject.
