Translated from the German of Dr. PIakFORD. " Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent practical contributions to German medical literature. 'This is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette. " The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhcea and the various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of the malady."—Medical Circular. " We have delayed so long upon the contents of the preli minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ; but the moderate price at which the 'brochure' is sold, places It within the reach of every one interested in the matter."— Dublin Medical Press.

Illustrated with Cases com piled from the Note-book of a Registered Medical Practi tioner of twenty years' standing. Unlike many vaunted restoratives, Electricity is one which commends itself to the medical man as being accordant with the soundest teachings of physiology. By the most obvious indication it admits.of being shown that the Electrical and Nervous energies are identical ; hence, that when the latter fails, the former can take its place, and that when, from irre gularities of any kind, the nervous system has become debili tated, paralysed, or exhausted, and the patient brought to a condition little short of total prostration, then by the action of Electricity, imparting certainty and efficacy to medical treatment, he can be re-invigorated, and his health re-esta blished to a degree almost warranting the designation of SECOND LIFE.

The event is stated to have taken place on Thursday evening. This eminent and ex tensive labourer in the field of scientific literature was the son of a Dublin solicitor, and was born in the Irish metro polis, April 3, 1793 ; so that at the time of his decease he had just completed his 66th year. The " Men of the Time" contains the following interesting notice of Dr. Lardner. "He received the ordinary education obtained in Irish schools at that period ; and at the age of 11 was placed in his father's office, where he remained about four years. Disliking the profession, he entered himself at Trinity College, Cambridge, in 1812. In 1813 he gained the first prize in Aristotelian logic, a subject with which he had been wholly unacquainted before the previous November. lie next gained 15 or 16 prizes in metaphysics, pure mathema tics, natural philosophy, astronomy, and moral philosophy ; and in 1817 he received the degree of Bachelor of Arts. From this period until 1827 he remained in the univer sity as a resident member ; and in the interval published three treatises on geometry, trigonoinetery, and the differen tial and integral calculUs, in addition to the first six books of Euclid, with a commentary, followed by a treatise on solid geometry. The latter work became established as a class book, and obtained for its author considerable reputation. It was followed by ti.„ popular treatise upon the steam-engine, based upon a course of lectures de livered by Mr. Lardner before the Royal Dublin Society ; for wWch, besides the customary acknowledgment, he was presented with a gold medal. This work, the first popular exposition of a series of contrivances uuparelleled in the annals of mechanical science, has been revised and enlarged as the progressive improvement and extension of steam power rendered necessary, and passed through many editions. It contains the refutation of those absurd reports which have been generally circulated, imputing to the author opinions as to the impossibility of the Atlantic voyage which are prdeisely the reverse of those he really expressed. During the same interval, 1817-27, Dr. Larduer contributed articles on mathematical subjects to the 'Ediltburgh Encyclopaedia,' and the Encyclopaedia Metropoli*si ;' and which are somewhat extensive treatises upon algebra and trignome try. He next wrote for the Library of Useful Know ledge,' a series of articles on various branches of natural philosophy, including an elaborate analysis of Newton's optical discoveries. In the year 1827, upon the establish ment of the London University (now University College), Dr. Lardner, at the invitation of Lord (then Mr.) Breugham, accepted the Professorship of Natural Philosophy and Astronomy ; and in the following year removed to London. Here his first labour was the projection of a popular Cycle pxdia to which the most eminent writers of the day might be induced to co-operate. The plan was communicated by Dr. Lardner to his friend and publisher, Mr. John Taylor, himself a man of considerable literary attainments. They next secured the co-operation of Messrs. Longman and Co., the publishers, and some of the most eminent literary and scientific men of the day, as contributors, among whom were Scott, Southey, Mackintosh, Moore, Herschel, Brewster, Lindley, Powell, &c. At Dr. Lardner's request Sir John Henschel wrote for The Cabinet Cyclopaidia his celebrated Preliminary Discourse upon Natural Philosophy, the great est work of its class since the days of Bacon. Herschel like wise prepared for the series his well-known' Treatise on As tronomy,' Sir David Brewster contributed a treatise on optics, the department of physics in which he has obtained the highest rank. Dr. Lardner wrote for the series treatises upon hydrostatics and pneumatics, heat, arithmetic, and geometry. The ' CycJopsedia consists of 135 volumes. Meanwhile Dr. Lardner was an occasional contributor to the Edinburgh Review, and other periodicals, of papers on physical science and its application to the industrial arts. Between 1830 and 1840 he was much engaged by railway companies in the scientific and engineering departments of the evidence upon their bills passing through Parliament. In 1840 Dr. Lardner left England for the United States, where he re mained until 1845. In the interval he lectured to crowded audiences in every principal town of the Union, and ex tended his tour to Cuba. These lectures were subsequently published in two large volumes, of which 15 editions have been sold. On his return to Europe, in 1845, Dr. Lardner settled in Paris, where he has since resided. In 1850 ap peared his elaborate work of railway statistics, entitled Railvay Economy.' In 1851 Dr. Lardner wrote for the Tunes a series of paper: upon the Great Exhibition, since republished in a volume, He next undertook an elementary course of treatises, under the title of Handbook of Natu ral Philosophy and Astronomy,' the second edition of which, in six volumes, appeared in 1855. In 1853 he com menced a series of essays on physical science and its appli cation to the industrial arts, entitle 3 The Museum of Science and Art,' the publication of which, in cheap periodical volumes, started with nearly 50,000 subscribers. He has since completed a volume on animal physics pre senting a popular view of the structure and functions of the human body and those of the inferior animals. Several original papers have been read by Dr. Lardner to the Royal Astronomical Society, and published in their ' Transac tions.' Dr. Lardner has been twice married ; first to Miss Flood, a descendant of Henry Flood, well known in Irish Parliamentary : history as the contemporary of Henry Grattan. By this lady Dr. Lardner has one surviving. son, a commissary general in the British army. The doctor married, secondly, the only child of the late Lieut.-Colonel Spicer, of the 12th Lancers, by whom he has two daughters. Dr. Lardner has resided in Paris, and at one time held the important appointment of foreign corre spondent to the Daily News. Dr. Lardner graduated ori ginally at Trinity College, Dublin ; but subsequently re ceived honorary degrees from Cambridge and other, univer sities."—lfor i Herald, 2 r-t. INTELLIG_ENCR.

Her Majesty's Government having considered it necessary for the safety of the country to have recourse to the unusual measure of offering a £lO bounty for seamen, I have thought it my duty to apply to the First Lord of the Admiralty for employment." A speedy renewal of the late contest, how ever, is expected, as a placard has been issued which says : —" It is now generally believed that Sir F. Baring was right in stating that Sir J.

CORONER'S INQUEST. On Thursday evening Mr. William Carter, the coroner for East Surrey, held an inquest at Richmond, on the body of the femalo who was supposed to have been poisoned by Mr. Thomas Smethurst, a surgeon, with whom she lived, at No. 10, Alma Villas, Richmond -hill. Considerable excitement has been caused in the town since the occurrence, it being the opinion of all classes that she had been slowly poisoned. Tho evidence of Drs. Julius and Bird, respectable prac titioners of Richmond, went to show that they were called in to visit the female, who was supposed to be a married lady, and they prescribed for her acoording to the disease from which she was suffering. Their medicine took no effect, and from the extraordinary change in the system the police were made acquainted with certain circumstances, which led to a warrant being obtained against Dr. Smethurst. The unfortunate lady died on Tuesday morning, and the same evening Dr. Smethurst was apprehended. A post mortem examination was made by Dr. Palmer, of Mortlake, in the presence of Drs. Bird and Julius, and from the in flamed state of the stomach they suspected foul play. The intestines were acc or di ng ly Bent uP to Dr. Alfred Taylor, of Guy's H os pit a l, f or ana l ysa ti on . Such not being com pleted, the further inquiry the 13th ins . was adjourned until Friday next, LVANS'S MAGNIFICENT MUSIC and SUPPER ROOMS, COVENT-GARDEN.—Gentlemen visiting London will find their evening enjoyment largely provided for at the above establishment.
