[This journal is devoted, in a particular manner, to the literature and history of Medical Science. It is conducted by Dr. Henschel, with the aid of many of the most celebrated medical scholars in Germany and France; the only English name, appearing among his collaborateurs, is that of our distinguished friend, Dr. Greenhill of Oxford. The chief articles in the present number are, a paper by Dr. Ermerius of Groningen, on the Galenic Text of Hippocrates; one on the "Morbus Cardiacus" of the old Physicians; one on the distinguished Physicians and Surgeons of the 13th and 14th Centuries; and a most admirable one on Medical Reform, more especially in reference to medical education, by Dr. Carus. Had space permitted, we should have given some extracts from this last paper.
