      MAJOR'S IMPROVEMENTS in VETERINARY SCIENCE . " If progress is daily made in Medical Science by those whose duty it is to study the diseases to which the human flesh is heir , it would seem that improvements in Veterinary art quite keep pace with it , as is manifest ou a visit to tha well-known Horse Infirmary of Mr . Major , in Cockspurstreet . Here incipient and chronic lameness is discovered and . cured with a facility truly astonishing , while the efficacy of the remedies , and the quickness of their action , appear to have revolutionised the whole system of firing and blistering . Among the moat recent proofs of the cure of spavins by Mr . Major , we may mention Cannobie , the winner of the Metropolitan , and . second favourite for the Derby , and who is now as sound as his friends and backers coula desire . And by the advertisement of Mr . Major s pamphlet in another column , we perceive that other equally miracuous cures are set forth , which place him at the head or the Veterinary art in London . "— Globe , May 10 , 1856 .
