The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful onsequences resulting from irregularities and excesses, which ave produced more misery in Youth, degradatio p n in Man ood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, erhaps, any titer class of disease known to modern pathologists. The treatment adopted is founded on experience gained in the most celebrated schools of medicine both in this country and in continental Europe. The results of the knowledge thus acquired are here condensed under the personal supervision of Dr. La'Mert, himself one of the few legally qualified physicians who have devoted their whole and un divided studies to this important branch of medical science. In short, every peculiarity relating to the treatment of the diseases incidental to the generative system, and the means of immediate relief and ultimate cure are described in detail. The professional reputation of Dr. La'Mert, who has taken the most distinguished medical and academic honours Id home and abroad, is in itself a sufficient guarantee that those who may place themselves under his care will, in every instance, meet with that delicate consideration and inviolable secrecy which are so requisite in the treatment of these cases.

PRACTICAL HINTS. The season having been a wet one, Sportsmen have scarcely commenced their campaign, though the Game is plentiful, but speedy preparations are now being made for Sporting Excursions. Let Sportsmen remember that the only Establishments where Dress every way appropriate can be obtained with Dispatch and Economy are those of E. MOSES and SON, their Style and Cut superseding that of every house in the world ; and their celebrated Boots, ex pressly made for Sportsmen, being proof against wet and damp. E. MOSES and SON'S Clothing for the present time is designed with surprising ingenuity, being light and waterproof, elegant and cool• fortable, and in variety which affords inimitable opportunities for selecting suitable attire for railway excursions, for youths' and children's wear, for every class and for all occupations ; each article being cheaper, better, and more fashionable at E. MOSES and SON'S than any dress which can be obtained elsewhere. ENCOURAGEMENT FOR EMIGRANTS. M. L.

On each side of the Thames strong brick walls, supported by piles and con crete, have been laid down at the edge of high water mark, and some 50 or 60 feet further inwards piles have been driven. faced by strong elm planks of two or three inches thick in front, and supported by beds of concrete several feet in width, depth, and height, for the purpose of fastening the chains which are to support the bridge. Those chains pass over, and are to be fixed to, the piers erected at the river's edge, and will then be supported by still higher and more solid piers constructed a few feet further in the channel of the river than low water mark. To enable the contractors to raise these latter piers, coffer dams of great extent have been erected, which have been protected and supported on each side by strong piles. Within the coffer dams a bottom of concrete several feet below the surface of the channel of the river, has been laid down, and upon it a strong building of brick, stone, and cement has been raised and nearly completed to the intended height. On each side of the works are placed several barges and pile•driving machines to break the force of the current, and prevent craft of all descriptions passing up and down the river fro m endangering the works or becoming foul by coming in contact with them. On either side huge masses of sand, stone , and other ma terials for making a strong and lasting connexion for the bridge and the roadway approaches, have been accumu lated and are being adapted for that purpose, so as to have, coincident with the finishing of the bridge, the ap proaches from Clapham, Brixton, and Wandsworth ready on the one side, and those from Kensington, Chelsea, and Pimlico on the other side. The chains will weigh several thousand tons. SEABORNE MAILS.

The use of the overland route dated from almost the discovery of India itself. The far-seeing Elizabetha fleet at Bir to facilitat e t rade along the Euphrates, which, being then the hi g h road to India, was con stantly made use of by B a lbi , Filch, and others, who The hado r c e c u a t s e ion fr t e o m march r Europe that .was line hy withAie x ma nedrreeh tat maintained ntid aisned. Aleppo to Bir on the Euphrates from whence the goods were carrisd by boats. The Gallant Colonel then reminded the audience that even in the time of Herodotus, Mesopotamia was a able commercial importan ce ; and at present, al though the value to Engl an d of Bagdad, and t h e other productive seats of commerce, was greatly by diminished by the cessation country of consider the East India Com pany of the intercourse which previously existed, yet the trade between India and the Persian Gulph amounted to about two millions a year. The line of the Euphrates had another advaittage. Th e direct line from London passes through Vi enna, Constant i nop l e,l and Asia Minor, to Aleppo, whence, by the Desert of ;t:he route by the Red manner,tiffe being less was contin ue d th ro ugh sspeeae Arabia, dhyn c: . the been reaches regular ßn ue transit . r s e t Arabia up to the year 1815. Ilis acquaintance with Mesopotamia commenced in consequence of his having set out for Constantinople in 1829, to assist in the defence of Turkey against the Rassians. He arrived at the close of the war, and then undertook a journey into Asia Minor, with the object of • • examiningthe proposed lines of communication with India, and made a detailed report to Governm en t, allowing twenty-two days between Bombay and Alexandria. This was the first proposal founded on examination for opening a steam communication by the Red Sea. The energy and activity of Waghorn, however, had performed the transit in fifteen, and even twelve, days. Having described the difficulties which he had en countered in pursuing his course, having been car ried off by the Arabs, Colonel Chesney stated that, on regaining hisTreedom he continued his journey across the Great Desert, and succeeding in reaching the Euphrates, pursuing his course from Damascus by Palmyra. Having constructed a raft of thirty three inflated skins, he was launched upon the great river, accompanied by three Arabs, and made his way to Felujah, opposite Bagdad, not, however, without meeting w i t h some danger, and thence descended from Babylon to Bus- Borah, and ultimately crossed the Persian Gulf. The Gallant Lecturer then gave a general description of the Euphrates, which, he observed, was entitled to even more than its celebrated name of the Fourth River of Paradise, being wide, deep, and highly pic turesque, flowing between ancient aqueducts, irri gating luxuriant groves of date trees, and the richest wheat cultivation. He then traversed 1,700 miles of Russia, and some 1,800 miles through Asia Minor, which enabled him to examine the sources of the rivers and the country between it and the Mediterra nean, having spent three years and a quarter in the exploration. He then made a report, urging the es tablishment of alternate communication by the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf. King William IV. took a lively interest in the matter, which was taken up by Lords Palmerston, Ripon, and Lansdowne, and after deliberation by the House of Commons, the sum of 20,0001. was at length voted for an expedition to the Euphrates and Tigris, and in 1835 he sailed in com mand of it, consisting of two flat-bottomed iron steamers, with a staff of scientific and other officers, together with persons qualified to put together the vessels, which were in pieces. On arriving at the mouth of the Orontes, the Pacha of Egypt, Mo hammed Ali, in violation of his engagements with the Government, refused to allow the exploration to proceed; but, being determined not to be stopped, they disembarked the materials, and carried their ships overland, notwithstanding all obstructions and difficulties, a distance of 147 miles from the mouth of the Orontes, to Port William, in Egypt, a name which be gave the place in honour of the King. The Go vernment, however, having then refused to grant any more funds, he was compelled either to give up the expedition or appeal to the assistance of his friends, and, determining not to abandon it, he obtained an advance of 3,000/. more. T h e gallant colonel then described the terrible effects of a whirlwind, which, although it lasted but 15 minutes, destroyed the Tigris, one of the vessels on the Euphrates, at Wirde, about 500 miles from both the Mediterranean and the Persian Gulf, and committed great havoc on the ex pedition, and which was unparalleld in violence, ex cept by a storm which destroyed the fleet of Julian the Apostate, near the same place. The Arabs, how ever, unlike some of their countrymen at home, showed them the greatest kindness. He had Previously received orders from the Government to break up the expedition on reaching the Per sian Gulf; but, lest he should dishearten the offi cers of the expedition, he did no t communicate the matter to them until some time afterwards ; and then, conceiving that the circumstances would justify them in not obeying these directions, he consulted with them as to pers ever i ng with it, and they at once agreed, and even gave up a portion of their pay in order to reduce the expenses. They then continued their survey of the river, and afterwards went up the Tigris to the distance of more than 300 miles, to Bagdad, the city of the Kalipha. The steamer every where created great surprise, the Arabs having a prophecy amongst them, that when iron should swim on the surface of the water their dominion was to end. They came several hundred miles to ascertain the fact, and at first believed that the vessel went along the bottom of the river by wheels. Having related other difficulties in the expedition, and further inq uiries which it made, Colonel aesney s tated that fresh orders having arrived, t o b reak up the party, the rest returned to England, while he f o ll o wed, taking from Bombay important dispatches, and making a direct journey of nearly 1,000 miles from sea to sea, the distance from Damascu s an d Beirou t b e ing accom plished in 19 days. On arriving at England a .b com munication was received from Prince Metternnio offering to meet the supposed India line at Sc . d the question but the Government did not entertain e question at all, except by turning it over to the East the India Company, who launched three vessels uponth river, but ultimately were obliged to withdraw them in the Affghan campaign. The Turkish Government then took up the subject, and after some reference o i two steamers more have been constructed by Messrs. Laird, of Birkenhead, and will speedily be launched on the ri ver of Mesopotamia • b u t he felt a nxiety lest a great un d ertak i ng should Mesopotamia; to the ground for want of competent manaement.

S. Smith, Mr. Coll, and other gentlemen, Colonel Ches ney gave satisfactory explanations respecting the in frequency of storms, the peaceful dispositio n of the Arabs, the salubrity of climate, protection of travel lers, and other points upon which he was interro gated, and, after some conversation upon the subject, the thanks of the section were voted to him. Captain Allen, R.N., then read a paper proposing, in the first instance, to account for proofs of sudden drainage in the valley of the Jordan, as shown by terraces 500 feet above it, which have been noticed by Lieut. Lynch, U. S. N., and Dr. Robinson; also more recent proofs, in hills with flat summits, exhibiting horizontal deposit, but with torn sides ; parallel raised beaches near the Dead Sea, &c. Such drain age, having lowered the Dead Sea 1,400 feet below the Mediterranean, could have no connexion with the catastrophe recorded in Scripture. In the course of the investigation of the accounts of other travellers, at the southern end of the Wady Arabs, and his own observations at the northern end of the valley of the Jordan, Captain Allen had reason to think that be tween the gulf of Akabali and the southern Gbor or Evady there is a trac t of ve ry low around, and also on the other band from the plain of Isdraelon, so that the waters of the Mediterranean and the Red Sea were kept in by those low tracts ; and if they were cut through there would be water communication with the East Indies, by means of a ship canal in the g reater part by nature through that depressed valley and that the expense would be very small, because, if a new canal were cut for a small way, the force of the Atlantic and the aid of gunpowder would very soon cut a channel sufficiently large for navigation of ps. Captain Allen pointed out the ad the largest Ai vantage which this course would be to the Sultan in opening up communication with an important portion of country which now but partially recognises his authority, and also to the pilgrims, so that there would not be a probability of having opposition to encounter. By this means he thought a more direct and expedious route to the East could be obtained. After some conversation upon the subject, the thanks of the section were given to Captain Allen for his paper. Learned papers were then read by the Rev. Dr. Hincks on the connexion between the Indian, Euro pean, Semitic, and Egyptian forms of the personal pronoun; and by Professor M'Douall on the present state of ledo-Persian philology. The latter gentleman also read an interesting ac count of a journey across Africa from Zanzibar to Angola, as communicated from the Foreign-office to the Royal Geographical Society. SECTION F.—STATISTICS. His Grace the Archbishop of Dublin presided, as on the preceding days, in this section on Saturday. Mr. Gilbart commenced the proceedings by read ing a second paper on the laws of the currency in Ireland, showing that the circulation of notes began to decline every January, slowly at first, but afterwards more rapidly until July, and reached its lowest point in August. It then began to rise, and con tinued to do so until January, w h en i t again declined. This was accounted for by the fact that in September the harvest began to be disposed of, and the rent to the landlord was paid about the end of the year, when the notes returned to the bank, either to be placed to the account of the landlord, or converted into cash. The total number of banks of issue was 163, of which 76 were in Ulster. As Ireland had a population of 6,500,000, and as the population of Ulster was only two millions, their pro portion of banks out of 163 would have been only 30. In some portions of the country the money circulation of small notes (under .51.) was only fifty per cent. of the whole returns, in Ulster it was 86 per cent.— owing to the peculiarities of the linen trade requiring small accounts in the purchase of materials, paying for the manufacture, &c., though lately the trade had undergone some change by which small amounts of money were not so much required as formerly. The average amount of gold and silver kept by the banks for the purpose of making their notes varied from 29 to 38 per cent. Gold could now be so readily obtained from England by steamboats and railways that it was not at present necessary to put so large an amount of gold and silver in their coffers as formerly. The recent discoveries of gold in Australia and California had affected the price of money in England, and reduced the interest on the balances of the Irish banks kept in London, and it became a matte r o f cons id erat i on w h et h er , i n keeping smaller balances in London, the Irish bankers might not afford greater accommodation to the people of Ireland, which, he believed, might now be fairly and safely done, especially to the new proprietary raised under the Encumbered Estates Act. In reply to a question Mr. Gilbart stated that he had no alarm from the gold discoveries of California and Australia reducing too much the value of money, but he believed it would be a very happy thing for the country. Mr. Heywood, M.P., next read a paper on the in come of the University and some of the colleges of Oxford, compiled from the report of the Oxford Uni versity Commissioners, from which it appeared, as far as could be ascertained of nine colleges, that tho average income of the heads of houses was 1,100/. a year ; and, as regarded fellows, taking in the canons of Christ Church, the average was 2341. a year. The total income of the Oxford University was 22,0001, and of the colleges, 152,0001. The income of Cam bridge University was about 133,000/. ; and of Trinity College, Dublin, about 50,0001., making the total about 355,0001. There were 557 fellowships in Oxford, of which about thirty-five were vacant every year. The revenue arising from the University press, by the printing of Bibles and prayer-books, was stated to be about 8,0001. a year, though the amount was not regularly paid over, but only when it increased to sums of 40,0001. or 60,0001. Professor Hancock next read a notice of " The progress of the Sewed Muslin Manufacture in Ire land," communicated by Mr. Holden. It stated that the trade was introduced into Ireland between 1800 and 1810, but little progress was made with it until between 1820 and 1830. The introduction of ma chinery for the spinning of linen yarn left the female population of Ulster almost without employment, but the introduction of embroidery amongst them soon more than compensated them for their loss. The introduction of lithographic printing between 1830 and 1835, instead of the old block system, was one of the most important elements in firmly establishing the trade. The old blocks cost from 3s. 6d. for sim ple patterns, to 61. or 71. for the more intricate, be sides the time (two or three weeks) formerly occu pied in the preparation of the patterns and cutting them upon the blocks, whilst they could now be produced in a few hours at about the same amount of shillings as it formerly cost pounds. For a long time there was a prejudice against Irish goods, which prevented their selling out of Ireland, especially in the London markets, and therefore the grey muslin was sent to Glasgow when bleached and completed, after which it was sold as Glasgow manufacture. Upon that fact becoming generally known the preju dice began to wear away. ,The goods were completed in Ireland, and the London and foreign buyers now visited Belfast to make purchases as often as they visited Glasgow, and the market was rapidly widen ing. So extensively indeed had the business increased in the last fifteen years that there were now employed in Ulster and other parts of Ireland nearly a quarter of a million of individuals. The wages of th e young yersons, when they first commenced, were only from 6d. to ls. per week : the more experienced obtained 4s. to 65., and there was now paid between 500,000/. and 600,0001. par annum for the manufacture, exclu sive of some of the cost of the materials ; and more over, the employment was afforded in the best manner, being given to the young females at their own homes, under the supervision of their parents. A great deal of good had also been effected by the establishment of training schools for teaching embroidery, and the landed proprietors had been very forward in establishing those institutions. A mongs t d others the Earl and C oun t ess o f E nn i s killen found e d one of these schools, th e resu l t o f w hi c h wasthat females of Enniskille n were no w earning: he bY irish broidery, no less than 4001. a week. : n. the s eat in was rapidly growing in importancenia great in despite of fiscal arrangements, was France where the way on the continent.

After acting for eleven months as lieutenant of the Ocean, 98, bearing the flag of Lord Collingwood, and of the Cambrian, 40, Captain Francis William Fane, he was at length confirmed to the latter ship, by commission dated Jan. 2, 1810. In the following September he co-operated in the reduction of a French battery at Bagur, on the coast of Catalonia; and he afterwards obtained the thanks of the patriot General O'Donnell for his conduct at the storming of a fort near Palamos, on which occasion the boat of which he had command was struck by a shot, and sunk almost before the wounded and the powder could be removed. On the 13th of the following December Mr. Baynton took charge of the Cam brian'a boats in an attack made, in conjunction with those of the Kent and Ajax, 74's, and Sparrowhawk and Minstrel sloops, on an enemy's convoy in the mole of Palamos; and during the disastrous retreat of the Bri tish from that place, when the boat in which he was serving grounded under a murderous fire from the shore, sustained, without any means of resistance, a loss of 30 men killed and wounded, and was only eventually got under way by the three survivors swimming and towing her off, he received a musket-ball in his thigh, which, we believe, has never been extracted. For his service on the coast of Catalonia, where be was further present at the defence of Tarragona, Mr. Baynton again obtained the open thanks of General O'Donnell, also a gold medal struck for the affairs at Bsgur and Palamos, and a sword valued at 50/. Being next appointed, Jan. 23, 1812, to the North Star, 20, Capt. Thomas Coe, he served in that vessel, on the Channel and West India stations (the last twelve months as senior lieutenant) until November, 1815, in the early part of which year he landed with a party of seamen and marines on the island of Cuba, in pursuit of the crew of an American letter-of-marque, three of whom were taken prisoners, and the vessel ulti mately captured. He was afterwards employed for two years and a hall, part of the time as first lieutenant, in the Shark, bearing the flag of Rear-Admiral John Erskine Douglas, Sabine and Tay, Captains Alexander Campbell and Samuel Roberts, and Salisbury, 50, flag. ship of Rear-Admiral Douglas, all on the Jamaica ma lion, where ho commanded for some time the Speedwell tender. From May 1, 1818, until December 3, 1539, with the exception of an interval in 1827, when, as agent for transports afloat, he attended the expedition to Portugal, he appears to have been on half-pay.

Pryce, of the Monarch, 84; Mr. Aylen, blaster-Attendant, and several of the officers of the ships in port, for the purpose of ascertaining the canting properties of the several anchors. The whole of them, eight in number, were placed in a line on their stock end, and a 36-fathom length of chain was emcee sinly bent on to each, with tackle and running gear attached to it. Upon this a party of marines hove smartly until the anchors canted into biting positions. In this instance the American anchor achieved a tri umph, turning over immediately the strain was applied. The distances dragged by each of the others before cant ing were very trifling. Aylen's was drawn 22 inches, which was the greatest of any. In this respect, there fore, there is comparatively little difference between them. The officers present evidently evinced much in terest in these important experiments, from which much pratical information of the present state of the anchor art may be gained. A general meeting of the members of the committee will he holden at the dockyard on Monday, the 13th inst., at 9 Am., to take into consideration some import ant matters then to be brought under notice, and to select those anchors which have proved the most efficient during the previous trials for further testing at the Nore and elsewhere.

THE HARVEST. The harvest is almost over; this year's wheat is finding its way into the market; and we are beginning to have particular information of the crops abroad. So what says Mark-lane, and what is the language of the agricultural journals, usually so ominous and pathetic at i t n h g is e t a i m ike e me o eit f yg t te h he e ne y tre e tl a hl r ye ? wwho A odl s iefs to the harvest itself, the ac countsw are various.

The averages are rising, the last was4a•s, 7d. But who gets the average?" asks the south-co untry farmer, whose wheat lay for a fortnight, till the weeds bound it to the ground. So far, then, as regards the ex pectations of the farmer, we may set down wheat a t t h e figure it has almost stood at for several years. Forty shillings a-quarter seems now the safest guess for the long run. Is that a good or a had look out? It is the prospect now before the farmers. Yet we venture to ask, where are the lamentations? where the piteous cries for help? where the appeals for something to be done? where the sullen resolves to quit the country if some thing were not done that we have had for the last seven years, particularly at this season. The farmers' friends are in power, and so little pressure is applied to them that they intend to wait near three months, that is to the end of November, before they produce their grand spe cific; and the farmers themselves are the chief apologists of this delay. What unwonted patience! What newly.. acquired resignation! Was it for this the 300 gentlemen making the country party seceded so long from office, flared up into agitators, and subsided into misanthropes? Was it merely that at the end of seven years they might learn to sit like patience on a monument, and smile at 40s. a-quarter? That, in fact, is what they are now come to. The truth is, that agriculturists have at last discovered that whatever is to be done must be done by themselves. They have passed through the worst—that is, the trea ted°u iteete—and they now see that they can manage to bet oc, like other manufacturers and tradesmen in this much-peopled and much-taxed country. They are also observing that time itself, as Bacon says, is the greatest innovator, and is just now unusually busy at innovations. Indeed, changes are now occurring of the most momen tous character, and that require as much vigilance on our were passing through icebergs at the orea partle up a threatens to become precious. On the one band wages o e a n we Arctic winter. Man, hitherto a dru g , must rise, and our men will be masters. They will ask , or good cottages, and that near their work. They will have their little homesteads, their pigs, and even their cows. On the other hind, they will become more educated and more intelligent, as well as physically stronger. They will do their work better. Then the burden of pauperism will alreost dis appear: it is going rapidly. Of our present vast pauper expenditure little will remain, after a few years, but the establishment charges. We may even live to see our huge union workhouses actually shut up, or only tenanted by a few old peopl e . Th en th e l aw o f settle :cent_that knot whi c h h as puzz l e d so many states and economists —which makes the man a slave t o his master, and the master a slave to his man, but which nobody hes yet been able to mend, will be come a mere shadow under the operation of changes that destroy all local ties. The whole population are adrift. Every petty station, every little market town, sees the emigrant on his way to Australia. Adding this new drain to that will undimini,hed from Ireland, we shall probably find that not less than half a million of our ay people have l e ft our s h ores in the year 1852. Solvuntur rise tabulw, w e may now sof those Settlement questions, th a t f or a century have disturbed t he peace and dr a i ne d t h e funds of every parish in this kingdom. Nothi ng h as hitherto stood i n the "AY of agriculture so much as the necessity of . ionteabor employ ing a vast quantity of unskilled and even been dinate labour. Though the necessity new this case, that if they employ machinery, or mode of cultivation, or if they labourers so stringent of late years, yet most farmehrassrarsenystill in from a distance, they find themselves under hands. invi , te pe a sort of compuliion to oon using i t smote to the use of reap there will no longer be any 0 edients for economiz , other exP disappearing, and i A n i g l compulsion machines an o d f a il this th s e o r t ing labour.

Again, should wheat obsti nately stand at its present price, barley and oats will prove more remunerative ; and even stall-feeding, which the other day was pronounced a ruinous occupation, is now found once more to pay. Notwithstanding all this emigration, our towns, our factories, our ports, our docks and harbours, seem to thrive as much as ever; and it is in these seats of skilled industry that the far mer's best customers are found, rather than among his own ill-paid labourers. But, as we have pointed out above, the more skilled and better paid labourers that will now do the work of the farm will be much better customers for the produce of it than the poor squalid creatures that carry home on the Saturday night a mi serable pittance of Si. or 9s. for as many mouths. We are come upon an age when the value, the power s, and the wants of ma n are suddenly and consid e rably raised, and when everybody gives more, and receives more in return. dew f ortunate that on the thresho ld o f this now state of things, more wonderful than any lwicih revolution could ha ve b roug h t us to, we have ear already got rid of P rotect i on, and have not t h at old fraudmitted our selves to mar our present g oo d f ortune .
