    of the previous study of those engaged, the com- petitors were placed in a room, under the surveil- lance of a committee, composed of individuals un- concerned in the result. The time vras limited, the regulations compelling that the answers should be delivered into my charge at the expiration of eight hours. Each Essay was accompanied by a motto, by which means the individuals were unknown till the successful Essays were announced to the Class. The situation of the Essays in this pamphlet have been decided by lot,—the prizes being equal. Foot notes have been added, explanatory of some statements ; where these do not occur, the matter remains exactly as it was originally written. JOHN MACKINTOSH, M.D. Edinburgh, April 26. 1835.
