The materials that have accumulated since the last edition was published have been incorporated, and no time or labor has been spared in the endeavor to make the work more worthy of the continued favor the profession has shown it. I may, perhaps, be permitted to repeat that the largest part of the time and pains it has cost me, has been bestowed on the minute weighing of every sentence, in the hope that in my treatment of a subject so novel and difficult, and in many respects painful, nothing may remain to which fastidiousness itself canary object. I would fain indulge the hope that the book may continue to have, as I trust it has already had, some good and practical influence on public health and public morals. 17 Queen A nneS tbbbt, Cavendish Square, A prU 1865.
