'The | ractice of Dr. Hunter has long boen, and still is literslly unbounded, but at (he ear nest solicitation of nUmerCus persons, he has beon induced to extend the sphere of his pro fessional usefulness to the community at large, through the medium of his "Mcdi ,al Manual Hand-Book for the ATMc'ed.' 1 It is a volume that should he in the hand of e.ery rb.Mry i— ->k land, whether used as a nrevenlivo of secret vice, nun p„ r . alleviation of one of -fke >poat jtwful and dr •trnei-ve scourges ever visited upon mankind for the sine of sensuality and impurity of every kt d.

To those who have been already ensnared to the "paths that take hold on hell,** a clear and explicit way is shown by which they may secure a return of sound health and a regeneration of the soul from its terrible pollution.
