Excerpt from Observations on Certain Parts of the Animal Oeconomy Always an admirer Of the genius of Hunter, and of late years obliged by Official duties to make frequent reference to his numerous and varied productions, especially to those which are scattered through different volumes Of the Philosophical Transactions and other works, I have Often felt the inconvenience that resulted from the absence Of a uniform edition Of the whole Of the extant works Of that great and original thinker. When, therefore, Mr. Palmer first communicated to me his design of publishing a new edition of Hunter's works, I heard with peculiar satisfaction his intention to include in the proposed collection every memoir of the author that could be found in print, and I gladly lent my assistance, which, however, the previous assiduous researches of Mr. Palmer rendered of little moment, towards completing a list Of all the published essays or Observations on various parts Of the 'animal (economy' which had not before been included in the work so entitled. The proposal which Mr. Palmer at the same time made to me to edit this portion Ofthe works Of Hunter I declined, from a sense of the inadequacy Of my powers to grapple with so vast a range of im portant physiological subjects as the contemplated volume must necessarily embrace, and I sincerely hoped that Mr. Palmer would have found a coadjutor better qualified than myself to do justice to this portion Of his most useful and praiseworthy undertaking.
