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