Report on the magnetical experiments made by the Commission of the Royal Academy of Medicine, of Paris, read in the meetings of June 21 and 28, 1831. Translated from the French, and preceded with an introduction, by Charles Poyen St. Sauveur. Boston: D. K. Hitchcock, 1836.

An English translation of the favorable French report on animal magnetism produced in 1831 by Husson. The translator is Charles Poyen, a key figure in the early popularization of animal magnetism into the United States. His long introduction is an important document in itself, and so this item is listed separately from the French entry of the Report.
