    ADVERTISEMENT. I have been most reluctantly compelled to give publicity to the following facts and document, not less in justification of my own professional integrity, than in defence of the cause of science and of truth. The character of the first and the inte- rests of the latter, have been too long exposed to unredressed injury by the continued course of misrepresentations, suppres- sions of truth, and calumnies, which this publication is intended to expose. F. B. COURTENAY. December 4th, 1852, 2, Chandos Street, Cavendish Square, London.
