The following are some of the numerous notices and recommendations the work has received by those who have given it an examination. The following is from the justly celebrated Dr. Burnham, proprietor of the Chronic Disease Infirmary of this city. INDIANAPOLIS, IND., JAN. 14TH, 1861 A. D. STREIGHT, ESQ.: _Dear Sir_--Having carefully examined a work of your publication entitled, "New American Family Physician," by John King, M. D., I find in point of style that it is concise, couched in plain language, and free from technicalities. Voluminous in variety of topics discussed, it comprises an amount of practical matter pertaining to the preservation of health, the history and treatment of disease unequaled in adaptation for popular use. A more general diffusion of knowledge upon the topics therein discussed, will serve as one of the greatest protections against the intrusions of ignorant pretenders who propose to tamper with human health and life. And I trust will be cordially hailed by every intelligent physician appreciating the fact that the stupid credulity of ignorance is much more forminable to encounter than the wisdom of an enlightened intelligence. In fine, the volume is worthy of the well earned reputation of its author, and I cheerfully commend it as highly deserving a promient place in the library of every family. Truly yours, N. G. BURNHAM, M. D. [_From Dr. G. M. Thompson, Agent for Kansas_] Tell Dr. King that I have had the pleasure of selling a copy of his "Physician" to Ex-Governor C. Robinson, Ex-Governor F. P. Stanton, Ex-Governor Wilson Shannon, and all the principal men in the Territory, as far as I have been able to canvass. JANESVILLE, WIS., OCT. 23D, 1860. _Dear Sir_--I have examined the medical work of John King, M. D., entitled the "American Family Physician," &c. I am highly pleased with it. In fact it supplies a long needed want, in the field of domestic medicine. It is written in a plain, easy style and readily comprehended by the non-professional reader, to which it will be a valuable aid in the treatment of the diseases incident to their own families. In truth, any one with a family will save double the cost of the book yearly, besides much useless and pernicious drugging. The remedies recommended are principally selected from the vegetable kingdom, many of which may be found at home. From my examination of this work and my acquaintance with the author, I can sincerely recommend it to both the professional and unprofessional reader, as a highly useful book and one that should be found in the library of every person. R. B. TREAT, M. D. (Dr. Treat is mayor of the City of Janesville.) [_From Prof. A. J. Howe. M. D._] I am acquainted with all the works on Domestic Medicine of any account, and unhesitatingly pronounce "King's American Family Physician" _the best_. A. JACKSON HOWE, M. D., Cincinnati, O., 1860. Professor of Surgery. [_From the Indianapolis Journal._]
