DR. HOLLICK'S LECTURES.--We cordially say to those who love a
scientific treat not to fail to attend. More instruction is contained
in those three Lectures, than can be mastered by a twelve month's
reading.--_Baltimore Clipper, March 30, 1847._

DR. HOLLICK--Dear Sir: The members of your class, desiring the
gratification of offering you some testimonial of their personal
regard, and grateful appreciation of the benefits which you are
conferring upon them and their sex generally, respectfully request your
acceptance of the accompanying writing desk.
Were it necessary, we might repeat our assurances that your services to
humanity will be, by us, long and gratefully remembered. The women of
this generation have reason to rejoice that, by your efforts, a new and
extensive field of information has been opened to them, whence they may
derive treasures of knowledge, of immense importance to themselves and
their posterity, hitherto concealed within professional enclosures.
Wishing you health and happiness, we beg leave to subscribe ourselves,
Truly your Friends,
Signed on behalf of the class by,
M. G.

OUTLINES OF ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY, WITH A DISSECTING PLATE OR THE
HUMAN ORGANIZATION, by Frederick Hollick, M. D. We regard this as one
of the most valuable works issued in a long time. It is a complete
general treatise on anatomy and physiology, and the dissected plate
answers the purpose of a model of the human frame. Dr. Hollick is
entitled to great credit for his laudable desire to disseminate a
knowledge of subjects that are of such vital consequence to all, but
which hitherto has been monopolized by the medical profession. We
commend it to all as a work of great merit and usefulness.
_From the Patriot, Baltimore, March 24th, 1847._
OUTLINES OF ANATOMY, &c.--Dr. F. Hollick, whose history as the
great _simplifier_ of the human anatomy, so well known throughout
the country, and whose public Lectures have won for him so high a
reputation, has just published a work which he designates "Outlines
of Anatomy and Physiology for Popular Use." This book contains a very
curiously and ingeniously arranged plate, which opens by pieces, so
that the different parts of the organs of the human system may be seen
in all their variety, all of which are fully explained in English.
The second part of this invaluable work gives a general description
of these organs and parts of the system, under the division of bones,
muscles, arteries, veins, &c., &c. This work should fall into the hands
of every family.
