Excerpt from Influence of the Progress of Medical Science on Medical Art: Address Before the Medical Society of the State of New-York, Delivered February 4, 1863

The action Of medicinal agents is better understood, and chemical science has furnished us with these agents in more convenient forms, and our materia medica has been enriched with new and potent remedies. But besides all this, the severe methods of observation and reasoning which belong to modern science, have taken the place of vagile Speculations and unfounded hypotheses, and thus, in addi tion to our increased stock of knowledge, we are better disciplined for the investigation Of the individual cases which come before us, and for the solution Of the problems they present.
