Excerpt from The British Journal of Homeopathy, 1866, Vol. 24 The provings of medicines recorded by Professor J. Ch. G. Jorg in his Materials for a fittm'e Materia Medica, as also in No. 2 of his Critical Pamphlets, are free from most of the objections above made to Hahnemann. Jorg gives us statements of age, sex, temperament, constitution, manner of life of the persons experimented on, exact records of the dose each time of administration, chrono logical enumeration of resulting phenomena, and critical hints in the resumes which follow the enumeration of the results of the proving of each medicine. I allude to these elucidations of J org'a purposely, because they furnish, amongst other things, the proof that the statements of Hahnemann are not mere fictions (as Sachs says) but facts, of which any one may easily convince himself who will compare Hahnemann's preamble to Opium in the Pure Materia Medica, 2nd edit., p. 278, with Jiirg, l. C., p. 437. Such a harmony of previous lies with the results of subse quent accurate investigations is really something more than strange.
