    contains many words belonging to the literature of general Medicine not found in other Dictionaries. Besides the works already referred to, the author has availed himself of the best standard authorities in all the depart- ments of Science and Art, the terms, phrases, and techni- calities of which this volume professes to contain. In short, he has spared neither pains nor labor to make the work desirable and useful. To what extent his efforts will prove successful, remains for others to determine. While the book was passing through the press, the author received many useful suggestions and much valuable aid from Professors A. S. Piggot and W. R. Handy, to whom he begs to express, in this public manner, his most grateful acknow- ledgments. CHAPIN A. HARRIS. NORTH EAST CORNER CHARLES AND \ LEXINGTON STREETS. / Baltimore, Oct. 9th, 1854.
