    The length of the work has compelled the treatment of many subjects briefly; nevertheless, nothing has been omitted having any relation with diseases of the throat and larynx—a class of maladies which may be now claimed as coming espe- cially within the province of the physician, who can devote that patient attention and care to their investigation and treatment which surgery does not permit of. A reference to the table of contents will show the classi- fication which has been adopted in the arrangement of the various subjects under particular heads. Objections might be taken to some of these, but the object held in view was simplicity and general convenience. The author returns his most grateful acknowledgments to the large number of his professional brethren throughout the kingdom, and in other parts of the world, who have honoured him with their confidence, in soliciting his opinion and advice. He humbly hopes he may always merit it. 19a, Poetman Steeet, AND 1, Bkya]Sstone Steeet. March 1st, lS6i.
