Local and General Debility, Nervous Irrita- bility and Excitement, Consumption, Indigestion of the most Fearful and Rxhausting Kind, Intense Melancholy and Depres- sion of the Spirits, and Partial or Complete Extinction of the Reproductive Powets, See., are thus produced. In the Silent Friend, the chapter devoted to the consideration ot these dread- ful complaints contains also an account of the Means by which they may be Prevented and Removed, so as to restore the suf- ferer to the full enjoyment of Health and the Functions of Manhood. The consequences resulting from veneral contamination are next pointed out, and the nature and character of Gonorrhoea, Gleet, Stricture, and Secondary Symptoms of every kind are clearly explained, with directions for cure. Their dangerous effects on the human economy are safficiently dilated on, and a Means is also indicated by which the Recurrence of these Diseases may in every instance be Completely Prevented. The work terminates with a chapter on the Obligations of Marriage, the physical impediments which teud to disqualify the candidate for that holy state, and the directions necessary for their removal. The work is illustrated by the detail of cases, and by twenty- six coloured engravings on steel, thus rendering it what its name purports it to be, the true but silent friead to all suffering from the consequences of early error and vice,-a work which may be consulted without exposure, and with every assurance of com- plete success and benefit.

Edinburgh; Powell, 10, Westmoreland-street, Dublin; and by all booksel- lers and patent medicine venders in town and country.- Pait the First Of this work is de<licaled to the consideration ef the Anatomy and Physiology of the generative functions. It embraces a succinct account of all the organs in man which are engaged in the important function of the reproduction of the species, and the mode in wliich self-abuse operates to the injury of the human frame, and the destruction of the special and vital powers. This is illustrated by six coloured engravings. Part the Second Treats of the infirmities and decay of the system produced by over ihdulgence of the passions. The existence of nervous and sexual debility and incapacity, with their accompanying train of symptoms and disorders, are treated by the chain of connecting results to this cause. This section is illustrated b_v three coloured engravings, which fully display the effents of physical decay. Part the Third Contains an accurate description of the diseases caused by in- fection, and by the abuse of mercury primary and secondary 'I symptions, erruptions of the skin, sore tlnoat, inflamation of the eyes, disease of the bones, gonorrhoea, gleet, stricture, &c., are shown to depend on this cause. Advice for the treatment of all these diseases and their consequences is tendered in this section, which, if duly followed up, cannot fail in efftciing a cure. The part is illustrated by seventeen coloured engravings. Part the Fourth. The preceding part having been devoted to the consideration of the maladies resulting from contamination and its conse- quences, next follows an account of the means by which such dreadful'maladies may be prevented. This may be effected by the use of a lotion, which is strongly recommended as the only agent by which such an effect can be produced. Its action is immediate and certain, by reason of its chemical influence. Part the Fifth Treats of Marriage, its obligations and disqualifications. The causes which lead to happiness in the marriage state are dwelt upon, and those which are indicative of misery and domestic inquietude. The nature, origin, and treatment of phvsical dis- qualifications are also described, and remedies for this 'state form an important consideration is this section of the work. The diffidence and distrust which are among the natural con- sequences of these affections, frequently prevents persons from applying for assistance until great, although not perhaps irre- mediable mischief has been inflicted on the constitution and powers of life. It is to be hoped that the perusal of this work will teach such persons the injurious consequences of delay, and lead them at once to seek that advice and counsel by which alone they could be saved from the horrors of an existence pro- tracted amidst long enduring wretchedness, both of mind and body. THE CORDIAL BALM OF SYRIA CUM Is rxpressly employed to renovate the impaired powers of life, when exhausted by the influence exerted by solitary indnlgence on the system. Its action is purely balsamic its power in reinvigorating the frame in all cases of nervous and sexual debility, obstinate gleets, impotency, barrenness, and debilities arising from venereal excesses, has been demonstrated by its unvarying success in thousands of cases. To those persons who are prevented entering the married state by the consequences of early errors, it is invaluablj. Price, lis. per bottle, or four quantities in one, for 33s. THE CONCENTRATED DETERSIVE ESSENCE, An anti-svphiltis remedy, for purifying the system from. venereal contamination, and is recommended for any of the varied forms of secondary symptoms, such as eruptions on the b.,in, blotches en the head and lace, enlargement of the tiuoat, ton,lis, and uvula; threatened destruction of the nose, palate, &c. Its action is purely detersive, and its beneficial influence on the system is undeniable. Price lIs. and 33s. per bottle. The £ 5. cases of Svriacum cr Conc-jntiated Detersive Essence, can only be had at 19, Berne, -street, Oxford-street, London whereby there is a saving of £ 1. 1-s., and the patient is entitled to receive advice without a fee, which advantage is applicable only to those who remit .£5. fir a packet.

The deplorable consequences and 1he many horrible diseases which reslIll from gonorrhoea, syphillis, ^c., have no doubt a vprv Lrpat influence on ms n, and drive them to the commission of offences which are contrary to law, morals, and the well-being of society. A certain preventative hasloni: been a desideratum, and this the Messrs Perry are now enabled to offer in theil Lotion • u^ed in accordance with the printid directions, it affords a safeguard against the apptoach of disease.

The numberless instances daily occurring, wherein affec- tions of the lungs, putting on all the outer appearances of con- sumption, which, however, when traced to their source, are found to result from certain baneful habits, fully proves that the princIple of the division of labour is nowhere more applicable than in medical practice.

RiMr,W OF THE WORK. Unquestionably this is a most extraordinary and skilfu work, and ought to be extensively circulated, for it is quite evident that there are peculiar habits acquired at public schools and private seminaries, which are totally unknown and con- cealed from the conductors of those establishments, and which cannot be too strongly rebrobated and condemned. The engrav- ings that accompany the work, are clear and explanatory and being written by a duly qualified medical practitioner, will doubtless be the means of saving many a youth, Is well as those of maturer age, from the various evil consequences resulting from early indiscretions."—Magnet.

The mode of treatment and cure is clearly defined in this work, which cannot fail to be read with peculiar interest by those to whom it is more particularly addressed. It will prove an excellent Companion to those suffering from indiscretion and the ellect This is a work of great merit, and should be placed in the hands of every vounR man who is suffering from past folly and indiscretion.
