PREFACE. THE General Secretary herewith presents the Transactions of the Thirty-First Session of the American Institute of Homœopathy, with an apology for the great delay in publishing; which however, the Secretary begs leave to inform the Institute, was altogether unavoidable. The Secretary would call attention to the fact that the Institute, having so amended its By-Laws as to restore the plan of each bureau selecting a subject for presentation and discussion, is liable to have the various departments of a single subject presented by several writers; and in view of this, would suggest that more authority be given by the Institute to the Chairmen of bureaus, or to the Committee of Publication, in the matter of publishing the reports and papers of the bureaus; preferably to the Chairmen of bureaus. The Complete Code of Medical Ethics has been printed as an Appendix to the present volume, in accordance with the order of the Institute. All of which is respectfully submitted: ROBERT J. MCCLATCHEY, General Secretary.
