" This work is the production of a surgeon whose special attention has been directed, through a long professional life, to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his great sliscriminative power in the diagnosis of the various kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which their management is founded. By hie systematic management an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject to stricture."—Medical Circular, Dec.

With Practical Observdtions on the Cure of these Diseases, and on the extraordinary re storative power of LOCAL GALVANISM in Spermatorithcea, Impotence, and Sterility, in which cases it is applied without pain or danger, and is frequently successful without the aid of medicine. BY SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D., 37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON, Registered Licentiate of the London Society of Apothecaries, Doctor of Medicine of the University of Erlangen, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society. &C. An erroneous impression exists that public announcements on these disorders emanate only from unqualified persons, but as the new Medical Act provides that none but registered practitioners shall assume any medical title, those that are legally qualified can readily be distinguished —a point of great importance in cases where secrecy, confidence, and skill are equally requisite. In the new edition of Self-Preservation,' facts of para mount utility are brought together—facts appealing to the Prudence of all who are suffering from affections which in volve the enfeeblement and ultimate loss of those powers without which man forfeits the dignity of nature, and sinks to the most pitiable depths of physical and moral degradation. In cases where the vital essences have been weakened by the influences of tropical climates, by pernicious habits. indiscri minate excesses, improper diet, 'hardship, or by injudicious treatment, the means of cure adopted by the author, in con junction with the application of Local Galvanism, have gene rally been found successful, even in cases where recovery had been pronounced impossible.

Aldeputation from the parish of St. Bride waited upon the Lord Mayor, at the Mansion House, to call' is attention to the annsyances and inconveni ences to which the inhabitants of Bride-lane, with some portions of Bridge -street and Fleet-street, are expnsed in c o nsequence o f t h e congregation there of crowds of men for betting purposes. The deputa tioni consisted of the Rev. C. Marshall, Mr. Church warden Dodd, Mr. R. F. Dale, Mr. Jewell, Mr. James, Mr. Blandon, Mr. H. Attwood Smith (vestry clerk), and Mr. Deputy Obbard. r. SMITH, in introducing the subject to his lordship, said—We are come, my lord, as a deputa tion from the parish of St. Bride to call you atten tion to the very serious inconvenience to which tho inhabitants of Bride-lane, that part of Fleet-street being between Bride-lane and Bridge-street; and a portion of Bridge -street itself, are exposed , from the- daily congregation there of crowds of men, who, from the books which they carry in their hands and the tone of their conversation, no doubt assemble there for the purpose of gambilng and betting. You are, of course, aware, my lord, that an act was recently passed to pro hibit gambling and betting in public houses and other buildings, but the practice has now assumed another character, for these men carry on their operations in the open air. They have for a long while selected more particularly Bride-lane and Bride-court, where they assemble in such numbers that the tradesmen living there suffer most seriously in their trade, since their customers are frequently afraid to pass through such a crowd. The evil has now reached to such a height that we are now here as a deputation from the parish to ask your lordship whether there is any law which will meet the ease, and if so, whether your lordship . will un dertake to put that law into operation ? The LORD MAYOR—If you will show me such a law I shall be obliged to you. Mr. SMITH—We understand it is contrary to the law to obstruct a public thoroughfare. The LORD MAYOR —But you immediately see the difficulty of applying the law of obstruction to such a complaint. Here is a man simply standing on the pavement, or on th e roa d way. How can you in terfere with him ? • Mr. SMITH—We feel the full difficulty of the case; for we admit that the liberty of the subject is a matter not lightly to be touched. But we sub mit to you that this obstruction is caused wilfully, and for an improper purpose. The LORD MAYou—Well, I shall be very glad if you will show me a 'law to deal with the subject. I shall most willingly put it into ope ration. I believe the attention of the Police Commissioner, as well as of the magistrates, has been already called to this nuisance; but it is better for you and a deputation from the parish to wait upon the magistrates. Bride-lane, however, is out of my jurisdiction ; it belongs to the Guild hall district. Mr. GOODMAN (chief clerk.)--There was once a very wholesome law, that any person who shall hinder or obstruct the footway should be liable to a penalty of £5, but that law was repealed in 1849. The LORD MAYOR.--I think the best way will be for the inhabitants to request these men to move off, and then, if they refuse to do so, we will see if steps can be taken to compel them. I had heard of this nuisance, and one day, when passing, I went through Bride-lane, and what I saw then was quite enough to convince me that the business of the tradesmen there must be seriously affected by it. Mr. Deputy OBBARD.—I asked a policeman one day how many men he thought were collected there, and he said 250, and you may.judge of the inconvenience arising from so many people being collected in so confined a thoroughfare. Here are two gentlemen who live at the comer of Bride-lane, and who have a good many country customers ; and the other day a customer went to one of their shops and said he should come no more, for he was afraid to pass through the crowd, and always had to but ton up his pockets. Ido not know whether there was really any occasion for him to button up his pockets. The LORD MAYOR.—No ; but he thought 'there was BETTING AT NORMAXPT44O.—Litsr MORT.

Will show dis tinctly a person to know them at two-and-a -half and three miles, and an object from eight to ten miles distant. Her Majesty's Coast Guards are making use of them as dayand night glasses in preference to all others; they are also pre ferred for deer-stalking b sportsmen, g en tl emen, and gamekeepers. Telescopes 3f inches long, by which a per son may be clearly seen and known at 3f miles' and an object at 12 to 14 miles' distance; and with an extra astro nomical eye-piece, Jupiter's moons, Saturn's rings, and the double stars are distinctly seen. All the above can be had of larger and all sizes, with increasing powers, and are secured liy her Majesty's Royal Letters Patent. The Royal Exhibition, 1851. A valuable, newly invented, very small, powerful Waistcoat-pocket Glass, the size of a walnut, by which a person can be seen and, known one and a half mile distant. They answer every pin-pose on the Race-course and at the Opera • houses. Country scenery and ships are clearly seen at four to six miles. They are invaluable for shooting, deer-stalking, yachting, to sportsmen, gentlemen, game keepers, and tourists. Price 30s.—Spectacle Lenses of the greatest transparent power. The great advantage derived from this invention is, that vision becoming impaired is preserved and strengthened, and very aged persons are enabled to employ their sight at the most minute occupation —can see with those lenses of a much less magnifying power, and they do not require the frequent changes to the dangerous effects of further powerful assistance. Persons can be suited at the most remote part of the world by send ing one of the glasses out of their spectacles in a letter, and stating the distance from the eyes they can read small print with it, and those who have not made use of spectacles by statin.gtheirage. Deafness.—New Discovery.—The Organic Vibrator, an extraordinarily powerful small newly-invented instrument for Deafness, entirely different from all others, surpasses anything of the kind that has been, or probably ever can be, produced. Being of the same colour as the skin, is not perceptible. It enables deaf persons to hear distinctly at church and at public assembhes ; the unplea sant sensation of singing noises in the ears is entirely re • moved, and it affords all the assistance th a t p oss ib ly could be desired.-39, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly. Observe— apposite the York Hotel, W. • The Rev. Mr. MARSHALL—Your lordship will be better able to form an opinion as to the extent of the nuisance when I tell you that the place is often quite as full as this court is now. You can only get through by pushing, as when in a crowd. The LORD MAYOR—By the operation of the law, these persons have been driven out of the public houses and other places, and now they take to the streets. Mr. SMITH—Is it too much to ask your lordship to take the opinion of the City law officers on the subject ? The LORD MAYOR—I will give the case my best consideration, and if the nuisance can be put down, it shall be. A DEPUTY—We are often taken away from our business, my Lord, to ask these men if they •11 will move on. Sometimes they do so, to come back again directly ; but at other times they load us with abuse, if they see that there is no policeman near. It would be a serious inconvenience to us, even if they were all gentlemen ; but when you take into consideration that they are a mixture of the lowest of the low, your lordship will see how very serious is the inconvenience, to say the least of it, to which we are exposed. The LORD MANDR—WeII, I again pr om i se you that I will take the whole matter into my most serious consideration, and that if anything can be done it shall be. The deputation then thanked his lordship and retired. TIIE MAILS. Southampton, Monday. --The steam-ship Alhambra, C a pt. Woodgates, left this day with the usual Peninsular'mail and passengers.

RICHARDSON AND WIFE.. s was an action tr, recover damages for a libel, Tle defendants pleaded not guilty, and justification. Mr. E. James, Q.C., and Mr. Roll, were counsel for the plaintiff; Mr. Sergeant • Shee appeared for the defendants. Mr. James said 'the plaintiff in this a c ti on was Miss ' Pauline G renv ill e, the daughter of an eminent physician in Curzon -street, Mayfair, and the defen dant! Mr: Charl es Ri c h ardson, was a solicitor • and the fiction was brought to recoyr.:r damages for a libel; that had been published by his wife, and which was contained in cer#.,ain letters and a printed pamphlet, both of wlitch contained m a tt er that i m os t seriously reflex, upon the •charac that ter tin gof th e plaintiff. Tale declaration alleged I consequence Of these libellous state ments a marriage tl'rat was in contemplation between the plalntiff and a gentleman of posi tion and aI c .-elWyniwa had b een b r ok en o ff, an d she Was compelled to bring the 'present action to vindicate tier character from the serious asersions that ;had been cast up on i t b y the statemen p ts that 1 well contained in the libels in question. The de fendants had "pleaded not guilty under justification, but he was happy to inform the jury that an tin ante ment had been ,come to between the parties, the precise- nature of which would be explained to, them by his learned friend Sergeant Shee, who appeared for the defendants, but the effect would be that all. imputations upon the character of the plaintiff would be entirely withdrawn, and that there would be an expression of regret that under a misappre hension of - the facts any such statements should have been made ; the defendants would at the same time consent to a verdict with £l,OOO damages passing against them. • Sergeant Shee said that on the part of Mrs. Rich ardsbn he was instructed to state that, under feel ings' of irritation, caused by imputations which she was informed had been thrown upon her character by Miss Grenville, but which that young lady wholly repudiated, she 'wrote the letters for which the (present action was brought. At the time theso letters were written, however, she believed that the matters contained in them were true ; but, finding that she had been misled into that belief by perspns whom she had since ascertained to be totally unworthy of credit, she had now no hesita tionlin expressing her regret at having made them.

For some years the, town of West Bromwich has not been in a state of such intense excitement as existed at a late hour on Friday night last, on its becoming known that a young collier named John Corbett had cut his wife's throat in Reform-street, and directly after inflicted two such deep gashes on his own throat that it was thought he could not live many hours. The circumstances under which this double murder, as it may well be called, oc curred, stand thus. For a period of five years the unhappy pair lived together in Walsall-street, and there is no question that, although they had two fine little boys, the issue of the marriage, yet jea lousy on both sid es p reva il e d , and mutual accusa tions and suspicions led to frequent quarrels, and sometimes to blows. Two weeks ago they sepa rated, Mrs. Corbett and the children going to the house of her father, John Bird, of Reform-street, and her husband taking:lodgings in Gad's-lane, near the Shoulder of Mutton public-house. It would seem, from circumstances, that the 'man himself desired to make matters up ; at all events, the mur dered woman went to him at, his lodgings on Sun day last, and . passed the night in his company. 'Since the period of his separation Mrs. Corbett 'Worked at "nailing" with her sister, Sarah Bird, inn shop at the back of the Hen and Chickens beer house, kept by Mrs. Lydia Biddlestone. Corbett himself was employed at - the Messrs. Dawes's new pit near Bromford Works. There he was at his labour as usual until - half-past six on the night of the fatal occurrence. We have no particular account of him further until about eight o'clock ' the same evening, when he was seen in Reform-street, proceeding in the direction of the nailing shop where his wife worked. If he had been drinking at all in the interval, we are assured that at this hour, although in a state of some excitement, he was quite sober. However, some person heard him remark, " There will be murder done this night." At twenty minutes past eight, his wife, accompanied by her sister, left the workshop. They had net proceeded many yards up Reform-street, on their road to their father's, when Corbett, who had hid himself behind a low wall just opposite the Hen and Chickens, sprang out into the road, and in an instant, putting his left arm round his wife's neck, inflicted a fearful cut on one side of her throat, with a large clasp knife which he held in his right hand. The poor creature screamed" Murder," but instantly seizing her again in the same manner, Corbett made a fearful gash with the knife on the other side of her throat, a third in the direction of her bosom, and instantly ran off. A woman named Weaver, coming up at the moment, by her aid and that of her sister, Corbett was led, or rather carried, bleeding pro fusely as far as Mr. Grainger's, the Globe Tavern. This is within a few yards of her father's house, and being taken there, the poor cre a t ure di e d f rom loss of blood and exl;austion, at a quarter to nine, less than half an hour after her throat was cut as above described. Messrs. Keyte, Cotterill, and Manley, surgeons, were sent for by Major M'Knight, who was soon on the spot, and these gentlemen promptly attended, but they arrived only in time to hear from the poor sufferer the deep long-drawn sigh, which closed her life. The sister of deceased says that the tragic scene she witnessed was enacted without the murderer speaking a word, but Mrs. Weaver states that Corbett, asking his wife, " Will you come and live with me ?" and receiving the word " No," in answer, said, " Then you shall live with no one else," and then did the murder. We have said that Corbett ran up Reform-street with the bloody knife still in his hand, as seen by his own sister, Mrs. Harris, whose garden looks into this street. Arrived at the top of Bull-street, the wretched man pointed the fatal weapon at his own throat, and by a desperate cut separated his wind pipe, and fell, bleeding and senseless, to theground. Major M'Knight, accompanied by Inspector Hol land and Police -constables Barnes and Moss, came to the spot where Corbett lay with the knife still in his hand; and whilst officers remained With the ,poer wretch, who was taken to Mr. Broom's beer house close by, the medical gentlemen referred to also arrived. The wounds which the murderer had inflicted upan himself were sewn up ; and although Mr. Keyte and Mr. Cotterill certified that he might be removed to his brother-in-law's (John Harris), Walsall•street, which was done in the course of Saturday morning, yet they consider his recovery impossible. Corbett was about 27 years of age, and his wife three years younger, and the scene of wretchedness presented at the houses of the parents of the wife, and at that of the husband's sister was most dis tressing, enhanced as it was by the presence of the two little boys referred to, one three and the other six years of age, now without a mother. There is a collateral circumstance in immediate connection with this tragedy which we publish, as the name of the party implicated was voluntarily and freely communicated to us. Corbett, as previ ously stated, worked in a pit at Broniford, and the doggy of the pit is said by Corbett himself, when he left his work, to have repeatedly, during the day of the murder, jeered him before the men in the pit with reference to his wife's leaving him. He was unmanly and base enough to avow that he had been improperly intimate with her during the week, and made other statements which were well calcu lated to cause the deepest feelings of anger and revenge in a husband against a woman who could thus act.—Birmingham Daily Post. EXTRAORDINARY SUICIDE. NORWICH, SATURDAY. An inquest was held last evening by Mr. Wilde, coroner for this city, on the body of a young woman, named Harriet Hostler, who had committed suicide under very melancholy and extraordinary circum stances. It appeared from the evidence that a tender cor respondence had passed between the deceased and a man named Nicholas Kavcn, her uncle ! A bundle of letters was handed to this person, when he was under examination, and the coroner read the con cluding words of one of them, as follows :—" So no more at present from your affectionate lover, Nicho las Raven." The witness said he had got them written for him, and did not know what was in them. • ytheT oh lastue a C rae o t r fin o ri n sg e th r i tn : r . e m a d ym ty o h t h do u e e r ag rhe p ts a st s girl, i g tr , s e a ym s o ou follows an : n — odt keep me long waiting; I think you are very long. You shall not be long before you hear from me again, and if you will favour me with one of your letters you will oblige your affec tionate lover," &e. " I hope you will meet me at the station at six o'clock on Monday night. shall be sure to come then. The greatest Pleasure I have now is to hope to see your sweet face, my dearest. So no more at present from your affec tionate lover, Nicholas Kaven." The witness declared that he did not write the letters produced himself, and that he had not pro mised marriage to the girl, although he admitted that he had told her she could come and stop with him a week or two if she thought proper. The medical evidence showed that the death of the deceased had resulted from an overdose of laudanum. The coroner remarked that if Maven had really promised to marry his niece, and then had refused to do so, she would naturally have fallen into great mental distress. The jury returned the following verdict :—" That the deceased's death was caused by a n overdose of laudanum, which was taken in an uns oun d state of mind, produced by the villanous conduct of her uncle, Nicholas Kaven." NEW AUSTRALIAN B ISHOPRICS.--Her Majesty's Government have given their consent to the erection of two new bishoprics, namely, the bishopric of Brisbane (Moreton Bay) and the bishopric of Goulburn (New South Wales).

BAIL WA Y INTELLIGENCE. • ST. ANDREW'S. The report of the directors of this company states that £21,000 had been raised on the original stock, and .£5,300 on debentures,—total, £26,300. The amount expended on the railway was £26,119, leaving a balance 'of £lBl. The revenue account for the half-year ending January 31 last showed that the receipts amOunted to £1,792, and the ex penditure to £598, leaving a balance of £1,194. Out of this £568 was deducted for the Edinburgh, Perth, and Dundee Railway Company for mileage of trains, £lO5 for interest on debentures, and £463 for the 41 per cent, dividend guaranteed to the shareholders, leaving a surplus, after meeting all demands, of £5B, of which £29 will be paid over to the Edinburgh, Perth, and Dundee Com pany, and the other £29 be credited to the sinking fund which now amounts to £442. The receipts for the past half year show an increase of £26 over those of the corresponding period of the preceding year. CAPE TOWN. The second half yearly report of the directors of this railway and dock company states that since the last meeting important and satisfactory amend ments have been made in the contract between the company and the Colonial Government. The agree ment for the construction of the railway from Capo Town to Wellington has been concluded. The con tractor, by his agreement, undertakes to complete the whole of the works, exclusive of rolling stock, for the sum of £400,000, which also includes the amount required to pay the interest to the shareholders at £6 per cent. during construction, as authorised by the Colonial Government. The con tractor is bound to construct the works to the satis faction of the engineer of the company and of the engineer of the Colonial Government, and, in case of reference, subject to the approval of Mr. Hawk shaw, whom the company and the Government have selected as the standing referee. The works are to be commenced within the time agreed upon between the company and the Government, and completed within two years and a half from the sth of October last, or six months within the time required by the contract with the Colonial authorities. RAILROAD ACCIDENTS. Official reports to the Board of Trade on certain accidents which occurred on railways during the last eight months of the year 1858 (Part V.) were published on Saturday. The ac accidents are far too numerous to be dealt with, except cursorily and incidentally. The The following companies are inculpated by the re port, so far as the accidents w ere th e resu l t o f care lessness, negligence, or want of efficient arrange ments—viz., the Birkenhead, Lancashire, and Cheshire Junction Railway Company (defective engine, &c.), the Bristol and Exeter (want of foot-r bridge at a level crossing and defective minor ar rangements), th e Ch ester and liolyhead, the Dee side, the Eastern Counties (gross and culpable care lessness of a driver of train) ; same line (neglect of signalman) ; Edinburgh and Glasgow, Great West ern (excessive speed over a curve of small radius ; Lin eonshire and Yorkshire (bad boiler), the Londonderry and Coleraine, the North Western, the South Western (guards riding outside break-carriages—a practice, strongly reprehended); same line (want of break power); the Midland (neglect to signal, the fellow quietly eating his breakfast instead of minding his duty), the Monklands, the North British, the North-Eastern, th e N or th L on d on (defective system of signalling), the North Union, the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton ; the Rhymney, the South-Eastern, and the Waterford and Tramore. Judging from these reports, defec tive arrangements of all sorts—or, in other words, faults or omission—would appear to be rather the general rule than the exception on the railways of the united kingdom. HONDURAS INTEROCEANIC. A deputation, composed of Mr. R. W. Crawford, M.P., Mr. J. S. G. Kirkpatrick, Mr. M. Travers, Lieutenant-Colonel Stanton, R.Fd., Mr. Wright, C.E., and Dr. Holland had an interview with Sir John Pakington yesterday at the Admiralty upon the subject of the Honduras Interoceanic Railway. The deputation submitted the maps of the line and ports prepared by Lieutenant-Colonel Stanton, the officer deputed by the Government to review the route, and represented that it was in the most direct line between this country and Australia, that the harbours both on the Atlantic and Pacific were spacious, accessible, and safe in all weathers, that the Bay of Fonseca is upwards of 3,000 miles n earer to Vancouver's Island than Valparaiso, 700 miles nearer than Panama to British Colombia, and in a healthy and well provided locality. It was stated that a substantial contractor had tendered to construct the railway for £2,500,000, and pending its construction to cut through a sufficient road for the carriage of the mails at a moderate cost, within 12 months from the present time. This road would bring Great Britain within 18 days of the Pacific coast, and within about 40 days of Australia. The line lay through the territories of the single friendly State, a treaty between which and this country guarantees, under all circumstances, the safety of property and independence of the road. . POSTAGE OF NEWZPAPERS. The following notice has been issued from the General Post-office. In order to pay the cost of transit through Egypt, newspapers sent via South ampton and Suez addressed to the East Indies, Ceylon, Mauritius, Hong Kong, China, Australia, or any other country or place lying to the eastward of Suez, will, after the 31st of December next, be subject to an additional charge of one penny; making the rates as follows—Upon a newspaper addressed to the East Indies-2d. when not exceed ing four ounces in weight; 3d. when above four ounces and not exceeding eight ounces in weight ; one penny being added for every additional four ounces or fraction of four ounces.

No alteration, moreover, will be made in the postage of any newspapers which may be directed to go by " private ship." The charge on these newspapers will remain, as at present, one penny each. Fur ther notice will be given before the new arrange meat comes into operation, but in the meantime, publishers of newspapers and the public are afforded the opportunity of making the necessary preparation for the change.
