Excerpt from New Guide to Health, or Botanic Family Physician: Containing a Complete System of Practice Upon a Plan Entirely New; With a Description of the Vegetables Made Use Of, and Directions for Preparing and Administering Them to Cure Disease The preparing the following work for the press, has been a task of much difficulty and labour, for to com prise in a short compass, and to convey a correct under 'standing of the subject, from such a mass of materials as I have been enabled to collect, by thirty years prac tice, is a business of no small magnitude. The plan that has been adopted I thought the best to give a cor rect knowledge of my system of practice; and am con fident that the descriptions and directions are sufficiently explained to be understood by all those who take an interest in this important subject. Much more might have been written; but the main object has been to confine it to the practice, and nothing more is stated of the theory, than what was necessary to give a general knowledge of the system. If any errors should be dis covered, it is hoped that they will be viewed with can dour; for in first publishing a work, such things are to be expected; but much care has been taken that there should be no error, which would cause any mistake in the practice, or preparing the medicine. Manly persons are practising by my system, who are in the habit of pretending that they have made great im provements, and in some instances it is well known that poisonous drugs have been made use of under the name of my medicine, which has counteracted its operation, and thereby tended to destroy the confidence of the public in my system of practice, this-has never been authorized by me. The public are therefore cautioned against such conduct, and all those who are well dis posed towards my system, are desired to lend their aid in exposing all such dishonest practices, in order that justice may be done. Those who possess this work, may, by examining it, be able to detect any improper deviations therefrom; and they are assured that any practice which is not conformable to the directions given, and does not agree with the principles herein laid down.
