standing the recent enlargement of THE LANCET, the publication of niapy valuable papers, from their great length, has been necessarily delayed. We trust, therefore, that our correspondents will condense all papers, reports, or letters that they may forward to us. Brevity is not only the soul of wit, but is often the passport to immediate publication, and to an attentive perusal by thousands of reader. IN consequence of the great press of matter, advertisements, &c., we are compelled to postpone the publication of many scientific articles, news, letters, &c., until next week.
