R. CURTIS has commenced, for the

MCUseTon, his interesting Course of

Lectures, on the structure and diseases of

the ear.

In the introductory part, the Lecturer pointed out the vast advantage derived by a sole attention to one object; and, in

[ocr errors]

remarking the great improvements which of
late years had taken place in medicine and
surgery, he observed, these improvements
had not extended to the diseases of the ear,
as it had done to the other organs of sense;
hence, there are more deaf persons in this
country, than in any other of the same po-
pulation. He dwelt, with much propriety,
on the great benefit that had occurred from
the establishment of the Royal Dispensary
for this class of diseases, and instanced the
issue of several hopeless cases, one of which
we noticed of a boy, born deaf and dumb,
who obtained his hearing and speech; be-
sides this, he mentioned several other cases
which were under cure; and when conside-
rable progress had been made, one of them,
a deaf and dumb man, 28 years of age, who
is now enabled to hear sounds distinctly,

It is too general an opinion, he remarked,
that all children, who do not acquire their
speech at a proper period in consequence of
deafness, are supposed to be born deaf and
dumb this occasions a neglect of their situ-
ation; while the deafness is not organic,
but merely temporary; for it is well known
that, at birth, and a considerable time after,
a viscid mucus fills up the ear in the same
manner as the meconium does the intestines;
and until this original layer or deposition is
removed, the child appears perfectly deaf,
and not unfrequently has all the appearance
of idiotism. The attention to this subject
opens a wide field for investigation and im-
provement, and we think too much en-
couragement cannot be given to an indivi-
dual, who has taken up a line of practice,
hitherto neglected, with a zeal which is cre-
ditable to his humanity and feelings, and
with a success which speaks high for his
talent and knowledge of the subject; for it
is lamentable to see, by the last report of
the Deaf and Dumb Institution in Scotland,
that no less than 800 persons are in this for-
lorn state; and in England and Wales, cal-
culating by the proportion of population,
it is clear there must be near double that
number.
