He died by a sudden attack of apoplexy at Berkeley, in February, 1823, in the seventy-fourth year of a green old age. A statue has been erected to his memory in his native county, but we regret to add that no monument has as yet been raised to him in Westminster Abbey, whose proudest inmates would be honoured by such com- panionship. We are acquainted with five medals which have been struck in honour of Jenner, and it is greatly to the honour of the German nation that three of these were produced in that country. The sur- geons of the British navy presented him with one, and the London Medical Society with another. The eminent physiologist, Rudolphi, of Berlin, in his Catalogue of the Medals of Men of Science, prefaces the list of Jennerian medals with the just expression, Dear to the human race. We regret to be obliged to oppose to this generous sympathy an article which has appeared in the Dictionnaire des Sciences Medicales, in which Dr. Husson, who }iad been an early correspondent of Jenner's, makes a singular discovery, " sur I'origine vraiment Fran9aise de la Vaccine." In 1803, Dr. Husson
