The following trite sketch of the Philosophy of Nature, dedicates
itself to the most noble Champions of Mesmerism, Doctor ELLIOTSON
and Doctor ASHBURNER of London, and Doctor ESDAILE of Calcutta, in
compliment and grateful acknowledgment for having rescued from the
fangs of ignorance, envy, and self-conceit, the science of health and
knowledge--the science of Mesmerism, which unfolds the hitherto unknown
wonders of the Animal system; and will unfold the wonders of the entire
universe, when the telescope and microscope are familiarly used by the
Clairvoyant.
