Thy house, and (in the cup of life, That honey-drop) thy pleasing wife. HAPPINESS " the gay to-morrow of the mind" is insured by marriage ; " the strictest tie of perpetual Friend ship," is a gift from Heaven, cementing pleasure with reason, by which, siys Johnson, " we apprisach in some degree of association with celestial intelligence." Previous, however, to entering into this hallowed obligation, it becomes an imperative duty, not only to regulate the passions, but to cleanse the grosser nature from those impurities which the free dom of unrestricted pleasure may have entailed upon it. To the neglect of such attention, are attributable many of those hapless instances which, while they excite the commiseration of the he buldee, should also impress him with the fear of self-reproach. Luxurious habits will effeminize the body—a residence in the tropics will relax the elastic fibre—but more especially does the premature infatuation of youth too frequently compromise the fla t:A-al dignity into a state of inanition, from whence the agonized sufferer more than doubts the chance of relief. To all such then, we address ourselves, offering hope, energy, muscular strength, felicity ; nor will our advances appear questionable sanctioned as they are by the multiplied proofs of Sin years' successful experience. The easy cases of married life are sometimes disturbed by the suspension of those blessings which concentrate the nuptial wreath —tor the female habit is often constitutionally weak—yet it can be strengthened, and deficient energy improved into functional power. In every case of syphilitic intrusion, as well as in every relaxation of the generative economy, we pledge our , ability to cure speedily, and with effect. Earnestly solicitous to expel the unfeeling empyric from the position so presumptuously taken up, we deviate from vaeral principles with less hesitation; and confident in our own honourable integrity as Members of the College of Surgeons, we trier the suffering community of either Sex (especially those entering iuto matrimonial life) at once to our house, where daily attendance is given for personal consultation ; and letters from the country are immediately answered; these must contain a remittance for Advice and Medicine, which can be forwarded to any part of the world, b.,wever distant.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, OCT . 13. SEDUCTION.-MANVILLE V. THOMPSON. This action WAS brought by the plaintiff, a ticket por ter, in the City of London, against the defendant, who keeps a boot and shoemaker's . chop in Gracechurch street, to recover a compensation in damages for the se duction of his n'ece. The plaintiff, by his declaration, complained that the defendant had seduced Elizabeth Manville, his servant, and thereby deprived him of the benefit of her services. Mr. C. Law opened the pleadings. Mr. Joust WILLIAMS stated the case to the Jury. He *could not ornament this case by any unnecessary re marks, because, if the simple facts of the case did not speak strongly enough of themselves, declamatory de scription would prove nothing in the end but empty sound. The plaintiff, though in humble circumstances, at all events had a good character, which put him on a footing with the wealthiest man in the realm. The ob ject of the present action was one of six nephews and nieces, who were entrusted to his charge, after the death of their parents. They had each a small fortune of about 4001. or 5001. but the plaintiff having been brought up to habits of industry himself, thought it right to bring up the orphans to similar habits. Ac cordingly Elizabeth Manville, the object of the present action, was placed in the service of a Mr. Nicholls, in Gracechurch-street, immediately opposite to the defend ant's house. There the defendant saw het, and con ceived an appetite for her. He commenced his attack by writing the following litter :—" A Gentleman who has no means of learning your name, offers an apology for addressing you in the manner he has done; but hopes you will no longer refrain from favouring him with an interview. The sentiments of respect you have inspired him with, induce him to request that, for a few minutes, you will allow him to speak to you. Meet hint on the Southwark-bridge, Thames -street, to-morrow morning, at eleven o'clock. He will be there at the ap pointed time, when he trusts you will oblige him with a few minute' conversation. The individual who writes this is not wholly unknown to you.' The Learned Counsel then proceeded to detail thetacts of the case. After the first interview the familiarity increased, and finally the defendant induced the unfortunate girl to go with him on the 29th of May, to spend the day at Highgate, and afterwards conducted her to private lodgings in Windsor -terrace, where be introduced her as his wife, detamed her all night, and effected Lis pur. pose. The next morning he lift her at nine o'clock, stating that he WAS going to her uncle to make arrange ments for their marriage; but about two o'clock, sent a letter, in which he avowed that he was a married man, and could never more see her. It was for the Jury to say what damages the plaintiff ought to have for the loss of his niece's services, and the Learned Counsel pledged himself that the girl herself should not bring an action for a breach of promise of marriage. Elizabeth Manville called and examined by Mr. LAWEIL--1 am the niece f f the plaintiff, and was seven. teen years of age in the month of April last. I had the misfortune to lose my father ten years ago. My mother is also dead, and died since my father's death. There were six children left orphans. Since the death of my . parents, my uncle, the plaintiff, took care of us, and I did little things ab.wt his house. In the month of Sep ! tember, 1825, I went in - o the service of Mr. Nicholls, in GrJcechurch-street. I left that service in April last. I know the defendant. I became acquainted with him when I was living at Mr. Nicholls's. I first became ac quainted with him by seeing him at his shop opposite. which was a boot and shoe shop. I had never spoken to him when I had seen him at the window, but I re ceived some letters from him.—(Letters were put into the hands of the witness).-_I received these letters ac cording to their dates. The first letter I received four days alter Saint Valentine's Day. I did not answer that ; but I received a second, and answered it. After I re ceived a third I went to the place appointed, and there met the defendant, who told me the letters came from him. I had two of the letters about me, and I produced them. There were two others that I had destroyed. When I met the defendant he conducted himself Eke a Gentleman towards me, and he wished me to make an appointment with him, but I said I could not. His manner was respectful, and I met him frequently after. wards. He could see when I went out, and then he used to follow and join me. I have seen a young wo man living in his (the defendant's, house, who, he said, was his sister. I left Mr. Nicholls, after I had been there ten months, in consequence of the defendant wishing me to leave to be married. He wished me to do so a month before I did, but I put it off. On leaving Mr. Nicholls I went to my uncle's. That was on a Saturday in the beginning of May, but I can't say what was the day of the month. On returning to my uncle's I continued to discharge the domestic duties I had before discharged. After that I received another letter from the defendant, and saw him several times afterwards. He always be. hayed with the greatest respect and decorum. He called at my uncle's house, and I have seen him and my uncle together. On the 29th of May, the defendant came to my uncle's house, and he wished me to go to the Ex• hibition, and he wished me to put on my best clothes, but it being rainy, I declined doing so. We then went out together, and walked as far as Cheapside, and got into a hackney coach ; and when we had driven as far as Covent Garden, he said he was going to take me to Highgate, and I asked him whether he had any friend there ? and he said no, he wished to spend the day some where. We then went to Highgate, where we had NEXT WEDNESDAY, THE GRAND CONCLUSION! I:389,000 IN ONE DAY.
