Accounts have been received from the Baptist missionary in Bengal, bearing date November 15, 1805, by which it appears that the converts had increased since the commencement of the year from 34 to 70.

toms of their ancestors. They live in tents, and still make use of bows and arrows, which they employ with such dexterity and precision, that when they went out with the Russians of the ambassador's suite they killed six times as much game as the latter, though provided with excellent fowling-pieces." He likewise writes that he has discov ered a little portable pharmaceutick collection of Thibet, from which the science of medicine is likely to derive advantage. It consists of sixty different articles, very elegantly wrapped in paper. Among these are some remedies known in Europe; but with a much greater number the botanists attached to the embassy were unacquainted. The latter consist of small fruits, nuts, and some chemical preparations. M. Rehmann has procured a translation of the list of them, which was written in the language of Tangut. He proposes to bring with him some of these collections of medicines, which are much in use among the Bucharians.

SWEDEN.

The fifth part of Icones Plantarum Japonicarum, by Thunberg, has made its appearance; but it is likely to be the last the learned professor will publish, unless some foreign bookseller will undertake to give his admirable collections to the world.

STATEMENT OF DISEASES, &c. from Sept. 20 to Oct. 20, 1806. THE atmosphere has been clear during great part of the past month, and the weather cool. Winds from the north-west and north-east.

The attention of physicians has been principally called to the autumnal fever yet this disease has not been so common, and far less fatal than in most years. It is right to have it stated; though we are not desirous of making any general inferences from it at present; that the depletion of the sanguiferous system is rarely, if ever, resorted to by our physicians; and we suspect that as few die of fever here, in the same number of cases, as in any city of

this country. The mercurial practice is employed with ardour by some, and with doubt by others; perhaps this is to be explained by the fact, that it is now and then brilliantly successful, in other cases inefficient, in a few hurtful. This powerful medicine would be more frequently useful, if the principles for its application were understood. The occasional, though cautious, use of catharticks, in a way very similar to that recommended by the judicious Dr. Hamilton, is very well established. Cold water is gradually removing the obstacles opposed to it by the prejudices of the vulgar, and will probably become a common and useful remedy in fevers. The cholera of infants has been more fatal in this, than the last month; but the number of cases not greater.

The cow-pock practice increases.
