Transcriber's Notes.

Obvious typographical errors, including missing punctuation have been corrected and hyphenation has been standardised, but variations in spelling in the original have been retained.

Chap. II., Part II., Section I. is wrongly headed Chap. I. in the text. This has been corrected.

A reference to Mr. Fifes, on page 518, could possibly be Mr. Fises.

On page 547 "fit for the use of Surgeons, who apply it to eat away callosities and excrescences, and to open issues." issues has been changed to tissues.

Colophony, 462 has been placed in correct alphabetical order in the index.

Pl. V. and VI. GEOFFROY'S TABLE of the COMPARATIVE AFFINITIES, a table using symbols to represent the various substances, has been replaced by a simple list of text descriptions showing the relationships.

Words in italics are shown thus _italic_.
