Excerpt from Introductory Lecture to the Class of the Homoeopathic Medical College of Pennsylvania This has been the case in every moral and intellectual research, and in none more so than in the progress and development of the science of medicine. A retrospect of the errors and delusions of our forefathers in medicine will aid us in bringing our noble science to a higher degree of excellence, and render it more worthy of the exalted object to which it is, or should be mainly directed - the renovation, and preservation of health - the greatest of all bless ings conferred by our Almighty Creator on man. Time would fail me, should I enter into an elaborate detail of all the various delusions in medical science since the era of Hippo crates, and my present object is simply to portray and to vindicate the doctrines we hold, as the followers of the illustrious Hahne mann, and to prove that those doctrines contain a most decided and important truth, as well as a most important progress in medi cal science. It is however necessary, first, to revert to and animadvert on the past and present imperfection of Therapeutics, in order to il lustrate the absolute necessity for further most careful and exten sive research. In so doing 1 shall have occasion to repel the un generous, the ungentlemanly, and the unphilosophical assaults made against Homoeopathy by Allopaths, who were totally ignorant, (and wilfully so) of that which they assailed. Assaults characterized by misrepres'entation, inconsistency and dogmatical assumption, so gross as to render the authors ridiculous in the estimation of the wise, the well informed, and the gentlemanly of their own school. The charge of quackery, iterated and reiterated by very many of the Allopaths against Homoeopathy besides being altogether false and unfounded in fact, comes with exceeding bad grace from those who, in all ages, have been accused and convicted of the grossest quackery, by the wise and learned of their own school.
