MEMOIRS OF THE LATE

WILLIAM SAUNDERS, M.D. F.RS. AND F.S.A.

FELLOW OF THE ROYAL COLLEGE OF PHYSICIANS OF LONDON, PHYSICIAN EXTRAORDINARY TO THE PRINCE HEGENT, SENIOR PHYSICIAN TO GUY'S HOSPITAL, &c. &c.

(WITH A PORTRAIT, ENGRAVED BY HENRY MEYER, FROM AN ORIGINAL DRAWING BY R. W.SATCRUELL.]

"Honour a physician with the honour due unto him for the uses which ye may have of him; the Lord hath created him; for of the Most High cometh healing."

T has been our satisfaction, and we would hope that our readers may have participated in the same, to trace the characters of personal worth and professional excellence in the Memoirs of many eminent persons who still live to adorn and benefit society; and it is a record of the present age, in which every cotemporary may justly exult, that in all the evidences of knowledge and skill, the domestic history of our country cannot boast a brighter page than that which the nineteenth century opens to our contemplation:-and while we mark with delight the march of superiority with which national talent outstrips the progress of foreign competition, we er joy the additional gratification of knowing, that Great Britain is universally acknowledged as displaying a standard of genius, by which every other part of the civilized world is anxious to regulate its efforts of improvement in all the various departments of science through which lies the path to individual fance and public happiness.

But in the enjoyment of this preeminence, and in the conviction of what we owe to those of our countrymen whom we see pursuing with indefatigable zeal and unwearied study every object that can advance the literary and scientific reputation of the era which they still adorn, we must not pass by in silence those who rank anong the worthies of that which preceded

Amid the numerous branches of science that most essentially conduce to the advancement of man's welfare, as it relates to his personal condition, co that of medicine may be considered the most important; -- which in all its various dependencies blends the most abstract subjects of philosophic research with the most difficult appropriations of practical skill. Perhaps, indeed, there is no application of the human intellect which requires more abstruse study, in union with more general knowledge, than the medical profession. mal, mal, vegetable, and mineral worlds, in all their most subtle implications of construction and combination, demand the minutest inquiry and the closest attention of the student. The elements themselves must be thoroughly investigated, and understood by him in all their simple and component properties; and that wonderful machine the human body, with all its complexities of internal and external structure, nay, even the mind itself, with all its affections, must be familiar to his coguizance, and brought within the very tact of his hand. Thus the numerous pursuits of natural history, chemistry, electricity, anatomy, and pathology, each of which may well be estimated as the study of a whole life, have all a clain
