BY EDWARD ANDREW PARNELL.
Author of " Applied Chemistry in Arts, Manufactures, and Domestic Economy."
Second Edition, revised throughout, and enlarged by the addition of 200 pages,
8vo., 14s. cloth. (^Now ready.)
The enlargement of the present edition is principally caused by the introduction of a much
fuller account of the different reagents, by an amplification of the part on qualitative analysis,
and by the introduction of several important processes for the analysis, or valuation of various
articles of commerce, as alkalies, ores of manganese, copper, lead, and other metals ; bleaching
powder, guano, and similar manures, saltpetre, &c. The work includes an account of the use
of the mouth blowpipe in analysis, the detection of poisons in organic mixtures, the qualitative
analysis of urine, and discrimination of urinary calculi, and the operations of organic analysis.

CUTLER'S SURGEON'S PRACTICAL GUIDE IN DRESSING
AND IN THE METHODIC APPLICATION OF BANDAGES. Second Edition.
100 Engravings on Wood. Fcap. 8vo., 6s. 6d.
" This appears to be a valuable little treatise. The Author seems to have spared no pains in
procuring correct descriptions of all the surgical apparatus at present employed in bandaging and
dressing, both at home and abroad. He has given numerous illustrations in the form of well-
executed woodcuts, and has altogether produced what we conceive to be a very useful, and by no
means an expensive publication." — Medical Gazette, Nov. 16, 1834.

" As a compendium of the present state of chemistry, and a text-book for all beginners, we
consider it as unequalled by any in the English laaguage, and we even doubt whether there are
any of the Foreign manuals, of an equal size, which can venture to compete with it."— Chemical
