By SAMUEL LA'MERT, 37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON, .etor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the University of Edin burgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c. The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful consequences resulting from irregularities and excesses, which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any other 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 arc here condensed under the personal supervision of Dr. La'Mert, himself one of the few egally qualified physicians who hare 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 at home and abroad, is in itself a sufficient guarantee that those who may place themselves under his care a ill, in every instance, meet with that delicate consideration aid inviolable secrecy which are so requisite in the treatment of these cases.

A Bill embracing the proposed objects of the present Company was before the last Parliament, when, after passing the Standing Orders and the first and second reading, it was submitted to the Select Committee on the Metropolis Water Supply. The Government and the other Bills occupied the attention of the Committee till the latter end of May, when this Bill was called on, and the evidence gone into ; but from the improbability of being able to pass the Bill through the House of Lords in that Parliament, and in order to avoid large and useless expenditure, by the advice of Counsel, it was withdrawn, upon the understanding that the same measure would be proceeded with in the next Parliament. The Metropolis Water Bill passed last Session removes all uncer tainty as to the extent of interference by the Legislature with regard to Water Companies, thereby enabling the Promoters of this Under taking to frame their measures to meet all the requirements of the New Act, and likewise to offer to the capitalist a perfectly secure means of investment. The Water of the River Wandle has long been celebrated for its great purity, and its recent analysis by eminent chemists, fully con firm the high character given to it by the late Mr. Telford and Dr. Bostock, in their examination by the Government Commissioners on Water Supply. Every Householder South of the Thames paying Water Rates, is aware of the high charge for the present inferior and insufficient supply. The proposed rates of this Company will be upon a much lower scale. It will thus be evident that upon the point of economy alone, they must command the preference of consumers; but when the purity of the water is considered, and that the supply will be constant and unlimited, all competition will necessarily be su perseded. kltbough inordinate profits are not contemplated by this Com pany, yet it is firmly believed, looking at the vast extent of the Surrey District, and the daily increase of buildings there, that the present undertaking w ill afford an immediate, sound, and steady investment for capital, with every prospect that the maximum di vidend, now allowed by the Legislature, namely, 10/ per cent., will be speedily attained ; proposals having already been made by large consumers, to take several millions of gallons daily. After payment of the Deposit, no call will be made until an Act be obtained, in which it will be provided that no Call shall exceed IL per Share, or be made at more frequent intervals than three months. Applications for Shares to be made to the Brokers; or to the Secretary, at the Offices of the Company, No. 28, Cornhill, where the plans and models of Mr. Thompson's SUBTERILANEOUS RE,SEA VOIRS may be seen, and detailed information obtained.

THOMAS HOOD'S ORAVE.—The publication in Eliza's Cook's Journal of " Lines written at Kensall-green Cemetry," has induced numerous readers to express an earnest de sire to assist in raising a fund for the purpose of placing a memorial over the remains of" Poor Hood." Many a burst of merriment has echoed above " Hood's Comic Animal," from the lips of all classes. For many a year he Cheered our Christmas firesides with racy humour, that never wearied by its frivolity nor offended by its coarseness. Far and wide was ha known as the Poet of Mirth: but the higher development of his genius and the nobler purpose of his muse were shown in such glorious hymns as " The Song of the Shirt" and the " Bridge of Sighs." Those who have read either of these poems will acknow ledge that such a man deserves to have a mark upon his sleeping place, so that it may be found without the help of a grave-yard servant, and all who have laughed at his inimitable wit, or sighed over his human tenderness, are now earnestly solicited to spare what they can in aid of a purpose which is alike praiseworthy in the living and due to the dead. At the request of the committee, Miss Eliza Cook has consented to be Treasurer to the fund, and Mr. John Watkins to be Honorary Secretary. Subscriptions will be received by Mr. William Strudwicke, at the Whittington Club, Arundel-street, Strand ; at the office of Eliza Cook's Journal, 3, Raquet-court, Fleet-street; by Miss Eliza Cook, 54, Great Ormonde-street, Bloomsbury; and by Mr. John Watkins, 34, Parliament-street, Westminster.

The chair was taken shortly after eight o'clock, by P. 0. H. Brady, Esq., of Watford. Mr. RENDALL, in opening his address, gave a brief and lucid description of the manner in which Life Assur ance Companies were got up, from the period when they were first registered, under the Joint Stock Company's Act, till their complete registration, which could not be effected till they had a specified sum of their capi tal paid up. But he could assure the gentlemen present that paid-up capital was not essential, nay he would assert, without fear of contradiction, that it was positively injurious to it. He was supported in this view by one of the greatest writers on life assurance — the authority of Mr. Babbage was everywhere acknow ledged and received. But he would tell them what was positively required to ensure the success of a life assur ance company. They required, in the first place, twelve honest bond fide men as directors ; it mattered not if even they were men of the working-class, pro viding they were intelligent —in that case they would be equally as eligible as twelve dukes or bishops—energetic and persevering officers —accurately constructed tables of rates, and last, though not least, a sound and beneficial system. Now he (Mr. Kendall) was prepared to prove that the Deposit and General Life Assurance Company possessed all these requisites, and, what is more, offered, as he would show by and by, greater advantages than any other office in existence. To come, however, to particulars. The Board of Directors consisted of gentlemen of the highest standing in society—men whose names were synony mous with good faith and honesty. Then they had the untiring energy of one of the most clever and most active business men in Lon don, for their Secretary, Mr. Charles W. Bevan. Most of the gentlemen of that town had seen, and would no doubt appreciate, the business habits of the gentleman who stood by his side—he meant Mr. Strousberg, the inspector of agencies, a gentleman who did more busi ness for the Deposit in one week, than any six men together for other offices in six months ; who, last week, effected policies to the amount of 4,5001., and, in the last eight weeks, policies to the amount of TWENTY-FIVE THOUSAND POUNDS. This, gentlemen, can be verified by any of you who chose to take the trouble of inspecting the office documents. The tables of the society had been con structed with great care and ability, by Francis G. P. Neison, Esq., F.L.S., and who, in a letter which he had written to the secretary, stated that they were the most complete tables he had ever constructed, and founded on the most correct data. The letter would be open to the inspection of persons desirous of seeing it. This gentleman, they must remember, was well known to be one of the soundest actuaries of the present day. Now for the system itself. Premiums when once effected, are always at all times, and under every circumstance, the avail able property of the assured—as much so, he would assure them, as though they had opened an account at any of the safest banks in London, and were receiving compound interest on their investments. Men of every class and station could avail themselves of the advantages to be derived from the Deposit Assurance Company. But it was the small tradesman and the industrious mechanic who would particularly experience the benefits arising from it ; persons who had been prevented from assuring their lives by the fear, not only of losing their policies, in case they should be unable by sickness or otherwise from keeping up their payment, but actually of losing all they had paid mto that office—in the Deposit such a thing was impossible. On the ordinary system, a person of the age of 20 has, in order to assure 5001., to pay an annual sum of 8/. 6s. 3d., and will, therefore, after 30 years, and when he has attained the age of 50, have paid into the office 2491. 7s. 6d. His policy at that time, in the case of death, will be 5001. The sum the ordinary life offices would give him for the surrender, or sale of his policy after 30 years' payments, amounting to 2491. 7s. 6d., of which they have derived the benefit, at compound interest, would be a little more than 801., perhaps 901. If he were un able or omitted to pay his current annual premium of 81. 6s. 3d., after having paid into their coffers 2491. 78. 6d., or, in the event of his death, one hour after such omis sion he would receive nothing. The rates here men tioned are advertised by the English and Cambrian Office as low rates ; those paid in the older offices being much higher. On the Deposit system, to assure 5001. the annual premium is 71. 10., which will secure, at the expiration of the same time specified in the above ex ample, the sum of 5221. 2s. 7d. ; and should he wish after that time to sell or surrender his policy, the office would give him 2871. 2s. 9d. If unable to continue to pay the annual premium, the policy would still remain at its full value. Shouid the party wish to cancel the policy, he could not only draw out all he has put in, but a certain bonus of 621. 2s. 9d., which is more than one-fourth of his whole payments ; or he could draw out a part, thereby diminishing the policy only by the assured value of the part so drawn out. The advantages of the new system are as follows A person, for a smaller annual sum, can insure a larger sum, in case of death. 2d. Should he desire to sell or surrender his policy, he would receive three times as much as from the ordinary com panies. 3d. Should he discontinue the payment of the annual premium, his policy would retain its full value, whereas, under the old system, he would get nothing. 4th. He can at any time, by giving a fortnight's notice, withdraw any part, from 11. up to the whole amount of his previous payments, with interest. This he can at any time repay into the office, and thus raise his policy t o the former or a greater amount. By this means he has a fund to which he can always fly in case of necessity, with this advantage over a bank, that he would gain interest for his money, and in case of death his family would receive more than the amount of his savings. In ordinary offices, the moment he ceases to pay his current premiums, his policy is cancelled, and his hard-earned savings serve to benefit the pockets of his more fortunate co-assurers. These were advantages offered by no other office— advantages that had already procured for the Deposit a large amount of business, and he was sure that the more its principles became known, the greater would be its prosperity. (Hear, hear.) They courted public inquiry to prove the correctness of their data, and the soundness of their principles. He thanked the meeting for the very kind manner in which they had received him, and concluded by requesting any gentleman present who might wish to ask any questions, to do so now, and that it would give him great pleasure to afford them all the information they required. Mr. C. HEALEY, an extensive wine merchant of Wat ford, asked several pertinent questions as to the policy and management of the Deposit Company, and ex pressed himself perfectly satisfied with the information afforded him. Mr. MERRIMAN, late agent to the London rr of County Office, then addressed the meeting s d upport guded the Deposit and General Assurance Offic , e, meet by moving the following resolution ing approves of the principle upo Thhaant the this D ep si Life Assurance has been founded, nanwdilir,cns, which, being iders its plan of operation worthy of general s uppor , duly seconded, was carried unanimously. to a question, Mr. F.

STROUSBERG, ine answer stated that it was impossible in_ Deposit Office that the payments could become forfeited-teeddtorowhaekreeasgo,odi in s other offices, the moment a cur rent premium, that mgrearsenotnacll his previous payments be came forfeited to th at office.

Is not, gen tlemen, a system like this most unjust (Applause.) A vote of thanks being passed to Mr. W. Kendall and the Chairman, the meeting was adjourned to some future day, most convenient to the directors, to attend for th e purpose of affording an opportunity to the many persons who were unable to remain until the time of meeting, of hearinhan exposition of the equitable and benevolent principles of the Deposit and General Life A.sattrance Company.

A _ - Yf terday at the Mansion-house a big athletic fellow, nam( Y I Henry Moore, was brought before the Lor Mart )r under th e f o ll ow i ng c i rcumstances : d 2`..] )oliceman said—Yesterday, at half-past four o'clock, as I was on duty at the Excise-office in Broad-streetwhet , •e tickets are issu e d f or St. P au l' s C athedral, I saw the prisoner on the foot pavement selling tickets, of 312 he had a considerable number, to the passers by. T hiy were, I afterwards found, forged tickets. When I Le saw me, he pasted the tickets he had in his hand to another man ; and when I was taking them from the other man, the prisoner struck me three or four times in the chest, and tried to kick me. The Lord Mayor—Was he obstructing the pavement at the time ? Witness—H e was, my lord ; and there were several other men, of the same description, engaged in the same business of selling forged tickets. It has become a re• gular trade, and is carried on in spite of our exertions. The Lord Mayor—How many did you take from the man to whom you saw the prisoner hand the tickets ? Policeman—Twenty-eight altogether, and three shill ings and fourpence were found in the prisoner's pocket. The prisoner was extremely violent, and struck at me as hard as he could. The Prisoner—Please your lordship, I only did as others did. I was told that I could purchase tickets of a man who was at the Excise -office with a blue bag in his hand, and I accordingly went to him and bought some to sell again. The Lord Mayor—And what did you pay for them ? Prisoner—A penny each. Some of the officers said that several gentlemen pur. chased tickets of the big fellows who came prowling about the Excise-office, at a shilling and eighteenpence each. One gentleman gave 4s, for four forged tickets, The Lord Mayor (to the prisoner)—How do you get your living ? - The Prisoner—l have been working for Mr. Cubitt in St. Paul's. (Laughter.) The Policeman—l observed this man yesterday selling tickets in Broad-street as hard as he could. The Lord Mayor—His offence is aggravated by the attack he made upon an officer in the execution of duty. The Prisoner—l never struck the policeman. I was pushed against him by others who were trying, like me, to buy tickets, and I never supposed there were any forgeries amongst them. The Policem - a,n—He threw himself into a fighting atti tude, and struck at me right and left. It was as much as two of us could do to take him to the station-house. The Lord Mayor—lt is in my power to inflict a serious penalty or imprisonment upon you ; but as there seems to be no imputation upon your previous conduct, I shall merely inflict upon you the fine of 10s. or imprisonment for seven days. If I catch any of yoiir associates after this hint, I shall fine or imprison him to the utmost. The policeman said that some of the prisoner's asso ciates were selling forged tickets at that moment in Broad-street, and it would be a very difficult matter to prevent the game, as those who were engaged in it were powerful men, who seemed determined to act together, The Lord Mayor.—Let every person who resists or obstructs the police in Broad-street be brought before me, and we shall see whether a punishment cannot be adapted to the offence. After the above case was disposed of; a John Lamb, another powerful man, was brought before the Lord Mayor by one of the police-sergeants, who said, I took this man into custody near the Excise-office, while he was in the act of selling forged cathedral orders and tickets containing the Duke of Wellington's head upon I them. He had nine forged orders, and on the top of them was a-genuine order. The Lord Mayor—Did he resist the police Witness—Not at all, my lord ; but all the passages leading to Broad-street are blocked up by large able men like this, and they are all selling forged orders. The Prisoner—l gave ls. 9d. for the tickets, my lord. The Police-sergeant—lt is quite impossible, your lord ship, for commercial gentlemen to go on with their busi ness in Broad-street. The Lord Mayor—lf evidence were before me to the effect that any of these men imposed upon the public by selling forged tickets, I should certainly take care that the heaviest punishment should be inflicted. As the de fendant did not resist or offend the police in any way, I shall discharge him ; but I shall destroy the forged tickets, as a matter of course. At Guildhall, William Sullivan, labouring man, was charged by Elliott, 12, with obstructing the thorough fare in Broad-street, near the Excise-office, by hawking for sale tickets purporting to give the holders of them the right of admission to St. Paul's Cathedral. Elliott said he saw the prisoner offering tickets for sale, and on taking him into custody, and comparing them with those tickets issued by the proper authorities, he ascertained the former were spurious. Sir Peter Laurie—What is the difference ?—Elliott : The spurious tickets are issued for hours when the ca thedral is closed, some from two to three, and others from five to six o'clock a.m. Sir Peter Laurie—Well, prisoner will you tell us where you got these tickets from ?—Sure, yer honour, I bought them for a penny a piece to sell for twopence. Elliott and a person in court here said they had seen the prisoner offering them for sale on Monday and Tues day for ls. each. Prisoner—lt's all wrong, yer wartchip ; I never sold one yer honour. Sir Peter Laurie—Would these tickets be admitted, if present 1 Elliott—They would not, sir ; for, as soon as I found they were in circulation, I cautioned the police on duty at St Paul's, and the tickets will all be more carefully examined now than before. Sir Peter Laurie thought it a pity that the genuine tickets had no official mark upon them to prevent such a fraud being practised upon the public. The officer had done his duty in bringing this case before the magis trate, as this exposure would put persons upon their guard. However, as the prisoner appeared to have been the dupe of the printer and some other designing party, and had been locked up during the night, he would discharge him, believing his only object was that of earning what he thought was an honest penny, and not that of lending himself to such a disgraceful fraud. The prisoner was then discharged. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSMOUTH, Nov. 25. The Dolphin, 3, brigantine, Lieutenant-Commander Wood, sailed from Spithead this afternoon for Sheerness to be paid off.
