      MA JOR'S IMPROVEMENTS in VETERINARY SCIENCE . " If pi'OJCiress 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 the well-known Horse Infirmary' of Mr .. Major , in Cockspurstreet . Here incipient and chronic lameness is discovered and . eured with a fectlity 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 most recent proofs of the cure of spavins by Sir . Major , w-e may mention Cannobiie , the winner of the Metropolitan , and second favourite for theDerby , and who 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 or the Veterinary art in London .

" " The composition of genuine Cod Liver Oil is not so simple as might be supposed . Dr . job Jongh gives the preference to tho Light-Brown Oil over tho Pale Oil , which contains scarcely any volatile fatty acid , a smaller quantity of iodine , phosphoric sveid , and the elements of buo , and npon which ingredients the efficacy of Cod Liver OU , no doubt , partly depends . Some of the deficiencies of tho Fale Oil are attributable to the method of its preparation , and especially to its filtration through charcoal . In the PEBPEHENCE OJ ?
