Excerpt from New Eclectic Medical Practice, Vol. 1: Designed for Students and Practitioners The author is not aware that an urgent demand has existed for the publication of this book. Indeed, it was not prepared with the impression that the profession was in urgent need of it, or that it would prove a remarkable innovation in the medical world. Medical men will come and go and the world will move on, after these pages have passed into forgetfulness; and time will chronicle a newer practice - doubtless a better one - when the years have marked the inevitable progress of events. The students of the California Medical College, to whom the author has been something of an authority on practice for the past sixteen years, have frequently importuned him to publish a work which would embody the substance of his lectures, that a text book for ready reference might be had. To satisfy this demand the present volume was begun several years ago. Other duties, however, have delayed the work, and the prospects of its completion at an early date were so poor that at the request of several members of the Class of '99 a first volume has been published, the second to follow within the coming two years. Special pains have been taken in the preparation of the text to dwell on the description of disease, that there may be no need of frequent reference to allopathic works for points on etiology, pathology, symptoms, diagnosis and prognosis. At the same time, it has been the author's aim to render the book as complete as possible on that which has been the peculiar merit of Eclectic works on practice in the past, treatment. Attempt has been made, throughout the work, to give every writer from whom points have been drawn his just due, especially when anything appropriated appeared to be original in its conception.

Excerpt from New York Eclectic Medical Review, Vol. 1: A Monthly Record of Medicine and the Collateral Sciences; June-November, 1866 The position of eclectics is essentially what it has been Since its introduction to the American people and the world. Theoretically and practically, we have rejected, and we do now reject, that wholesale bloodletting which has made up a large share of the treatment of allopathists in all acute diseases. Only a few years Since, bloodletting was the rule with the thousands of physicians and writers of this country and of the fatherland. How foolish would any of us have been regarded, twenty years ago, if we had publicly pre dicted that in 1866, bloodletting would not be the general practice in fevers and inflammations! But we have kept our faith, our practice has proved itself the right practice, and allopathists themselves do not resort to bleeding in one tenth of the cases in which they formerly did. The teachers of allopathy, the professors in their colleges, still advocate this fatal barbarism, and their graduates far too frequently resort to it. But the common sense of the people, and the superior success of eclectic physicians, have brought the practice into disgraceful contempt, in the honest minds of the American people. Surely, this is a change and a tri umph! A change by which thousands of lives are saved every year, and a triumph to every eclectic who has been struggling for a right to live and to be honored through these twenty years past.

Excerpt from The American Eclectic Medical Review, Vol. 1: From June, 1866, to June, 1867 The position of eclectics is essentially what it has been since its introduction to the American people and the world.

Surely, this is a change and a tri umph! A change by which thousands of lives are saved every year, and a triumph to every eclectic who has been struggling for a right to live and to be honored through these twenty years past. And yet allopathic writers, when they prepare articles for their medical journals, or write works on the practice of medicine, like Dr. Flint, recommend bloodletting, though with much discrimination; and England and Scotland have many among her foremost men who hke J. Hughes Bennett, discard almost entirely the lancet. But the profes sors in the medical colleges of New York and Philadelphia the two great centres of medical education in this country all unite in recommending bloodletting; and their satellites, in all the allopathic medical chaim of the land, echo these sentiments from their halls of collegiate instruction.
