The various positions of lover, husband, and parent, the inherent privileges of mankind, are frequently marred and prevented through the 'ollies and frail'i,-s of eaily indiscretion. To such, among others, this essay addresses itstlf; and. by its perusal, many questions may be satisfactorily adjusted, that admit nf no appeal even to the most confidential fllend. iStafford Gazette, We consider this book really ought, as a matter of safety, to be placed in the hands of every youth whose appearance indicates any tendency to nervous debility, or premature rlecay, lVIr. La'Mert, who is a regularl v educated member of Ike medi- cal profession, has treated the subject in a very sc. utific and in- telligent manner, and we are certainly amazed at the preva- lence and the consequences of those evils it is his province to ponrtray and al Iev late.

The last return was per cent. 011 all the Premiums paid in the four years ending at M icliaelmas, ISll, and was allowed 10 all Insurers, whether their Policies lea,1 existed for a longer or shorter period. By the liberal principle on which this Oflice is based, the public who have sought protection from it. have received such protection al a less expense bv Three ll/ln- dred Thousand Pounds than would have heen paid to most other Ollices, that amount having been shared by lite parlies insuring, in periodical returns.

SWANSEA, FRIDAY, MARCH 2U. THE Report of the Commissioners into the state of South Wales must be welcomed by all of us, as it is the harbinger of legislative measures for the proper adjust- ment of that state of things which led to the disturbances of last year. The Commissioners, at tiie outset of their report, slate that the excitement which had pievailed had, in a great measure, exhausted itself on their arrival and they go on to declare their belief, that the disturbances in the country, though so widely extended, were not connected with political causes, and that nothing like a general spirit of disaffection, or organised hosti fty to the laws, pervaded the community. The general opinion always has been that our riots were not owing to political, but to local grievances and their being attributed to such causes, ought to have induced her Majesty's Government to send down an efficient Commission of Enquiry, some months before October last-as early as June, when dis- affection was at its height, and was manifesting itself in the most violent and lawless aggressions. No one can doubt that the presence of the Commissioners in South Wales, at that period, would have greatly tended to quiet the people, inasmuch as they would have been satisfied their complaints were about to be enquired into, and that there was a great chance of obtaining edress, as many of them- selves would then have lnd au oppoitunity, as they since have, of giving their evidence, and laying their case before tbe Commissioners. How such a state of affairs as that which existed amongst us last summer could have been allowed to exist by the Government, without an immediate investigation into its causes, must to all o," its ieniniii a mailer of surprise, and we should think, to the Govern- ment, a matter of self-reproach for it is very evident, that if they had shown more haste injhe appointment of this Commission, some loss of life would have been spaied, and we should not have suffered so great an amount of injury to our public and private property. However, we
