DAKE, , , NASHVILLE, of Materia Medica, Hahnemann Medical College, Philadelphia, 1855-6-7. The quality and extent of knowledge that the physician accept-ing the homoeopathic principle, should possess concerning drugs, hasbeen considered and discussed by every writer and teacher of ma-teria medica, from Hahnemann down ; and yet the question seemsnot fullv settled. In this brief communication I propose to do littlemore than to indicate the general bearings of the inquiry with somereference to practical duties on the part of the physician and teacher. In general I think the tendency has been to take too circum-scribed a view of the part to be performed by the homoeopathicpractitioner; as if his one and only duty were to make a compari-son of the drugsymptons on the one side, with the symptoms of thecase to be cured on the other, in order to discover a similarity.
