Matriculated Member of the University of Edin a burgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, &c. Marriage reqaires the fulfilment of several conditions. in order that It may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the veil, which errors the origin of domestic wretchedness, he raised, and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many could itbe traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant dwhen isap- D eintments. Excesses are al wa y s injurious ; the gift, which heed in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when abused, the prolific source of mischief and of greater or less injury to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on .he nature and consconence of which this Treatise professes to dilate, ire productive of greater severity of misery to the human tratne, than any other to which it is subject. This work contains an accurate and complete account o ff t ot Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs and of their relative conditions In health and disease. It deservedly' requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can be of more imeortance than the preservation of the health, and et the physical capabilities of which every man should • be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy Victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired In early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering from their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a tear of ap plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so frequently - , but erroneously entertained that these complaints are beyond the roach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking for assistance where alone it can be procured. in acting thus, he forgets that accurate discrimination n ascertainin,g the Mlles of disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the medical man who can show Hy his possession of the requisite legal qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his prefes . t onal pursuits, the utmost contidence should be extended. Dr. LA'MERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas certify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a guarantee for his professional experienee, which has reference almost Solely to the treatment of these diseases.

T ILE STANDARD LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY. ANNUAL REPORT, 1848. The TWENTY - SECOND ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING of this Company took place on Tuesday, the 15th of February, within the Company's Office, No 3, George-street Edinburgh. GEORGE MOIR, Esq. Advosate, in the Chair. The Report and Statements submitted by the Directors contained a very satiofac:oi y aeconnt of the progress of the Institution during the year 1847. It was reported : That the 'number of Policies for Life Assaranee issued by the Company from the 15th November, 1846, to 15th November, 1847, was 621. That the Sums Assured daring the same period, contained in these Policies, amounte cations ,443s7 fort. 4s. l es Id made to the. Cum- That the number of applPolici pany, and from which the above transactions were selected, was 804, containing proposals for Assurance to the extort of 591,6631. 85. That the Annual Revenue of the Company, as at 15th November, 1847, was 131,3161. lOs. 7d. That the whole amount of assurance covered by the Company's Policies, is fbrce at 15th November, 1847, was 3,212,0901. 141. iod. The Report then proceeded as follows : " The past year has been marked by the most extraordinary fea tures as regards commercial affairs and general credit ; but, while all elasses of society, especially the mercantile community, and our public institutions connected with the general affairs of commerce, have felt the pressure of the times, the Life Assurance Institutions of the country have stood unaffected by the crisis. Nothing can tend more to extend confidence in these institutions than this result and it is hoped they will alway s be found affording protection and pensing benefits to all connected with them, unaffected by those periodical changes. " Notwithstanding the unfortunate position of the country daring the past year, the amount of new business transacted by this Com pany has exceeded to a large amount the business of the previous year. The claims during the year have been greater in proportion than usual , but when the increased mortality throughout the king dom generally is remembered, the Directors consider they have reason to be well satisfied with the results." After the Report and Statements were read, the Chairman con gratulated the meeting on the favourable position of the Company, and its prospects generally, and again brought under notice the most prominent features in the Report. lie :drew attention to the great increase of the business, the increase of the revenue, and the rapid acrumulation of the Company's Funds, which it appeared lIAD BEEN MORE THIN DOUBLED DURING TIIE LAST FIVE YEARS. The following Abstract, showing the new business transacted by the Company annually since 1842, was referred to, as exhibiting, in a marked degree, the growing estimation of the STANDARD public favour:— Number of Corresponding Sum New Policies issued.

Such is life on board a Transatlantic steamer ; and in the summer season it is said to be be coming quite common for parties to make a pleasure trip to America in the fashion that people go up the Rhine. There have even been occasions in which young married people have spent their honeymoon in it trip to Halifax, a flying visit to Niagara and New York, and a return voyage to England, and all in six weeks. 5 5 294 GLASGOW, DIARCII 18.

SURVEY OF STEAM-VESSELS. The following letter has been forwarded by her Ma. jesty's Committee of Privy Council for Trade to the different persons connected with steam-vessels, viz. " Office of the Committee of Privy Council for Trade, Whitehall, March, 1, 1848. - " am directed by the Lords of the Com mittee of the Privy Council fur Trade to call your attention to the enactments of the Steam Navigation Act (9th and 10th Victoria, chapter 100), which obliges the owners of steam-vessels to trans mit to the Lords of this Committee, half-yearly declara tions (bearing date in April and October respectively) of the sufficiency and good condition of the hulls and machinery of such steam vessels, signed by shipwrights, surveyors, and engineers, approved by the Lords of this Committee ; and also to the other enactments of the said Act, relating to boats, fire-hose, and in the case of the new iron steamers to water-tight partitions. - " My Lords have deemed it right thus to remind you of the above mentioned provisions, because they have reason to believe that the owners of steam-vessels are not fully aware of the serious difficulties, both direct and indirect, and both legal and practical, which may result from their permitting their vessels to proceed to sea without having complied with the requirements al luded to, and to commence voyages which the law has prohibited. " I am further to observe that, as respects steam• vessels which clear out at the Custom-house, the Act requires the officers of Customs, in the cases therein men tioned, to refuse such clearance, unless the above-men tioned provisions of the Act have been observed. " I am, sir, your obedient servant, "JOHN LEFEVRE."

[ADvERTISBMENT.]—THE GREAT POPULARITY OF HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND PILLS IN THE WEST IN DIES IN THE CURE OF ALL SKIN DISEASES.—A young gentleman, residing in St. Kitt's, was afflicted with a most distressing skin disease, termed " the Shingles." He had the best medical advice that could be obtained in the island, but finding that he derived no benefit from their L'eatment, he determined on having recourse to Holloway's Ointment and Pills, which had a most grati fying effect, for in a very limited period these invaluable remedies completely cured him. Mr. T. C. Cable, of St. Kitt's, vouches for the accuracy of this statement.—Sold by all druggists, and at Professor Holloway's establish ment, 244, Strand, London. DETERMINED SUICIDE OF A YOUTIL—On Satur day afternoon, Mr. Bedford held an inquest at the Grapes Tavern, Old Compton-street, Soho, on the body of Henry Marks, aged twenty. It appeared from the testimony of witnesses, that the deceased was of very weak mind, and had lately been lodging at a coffee-shop adjoining the above tavern. On Tuesday morning Mr. Wade, of Dean-street, surgeon, was sent for to attend him, as ho was attacked with violent vomitings of blood. He said he had taken poison, which he had purchased at a chemist's, and it was subsequently ascertained to be corrosive sublimate, from the effects of which he died on Thursday. The only reason that seemed to be assigned for the perpetration of the act was that his master had threatened to complain to his father of his bad conduct. The jury returned a verdict of " Tempo rary insanity." CHARGES AGAINST THE AUTHORITIES OF THE STRAND UNION WORKHOUSE. —Yesterday Mr. Wak ley, M.P., held an inquest in the board-room of the Strand Union Workhouse, Cleveland-street, upon Ralph Sanderson, aged three years. Mrs . Gibbs, nurse, No. 2 sick ward, stated that deceased suffered from inflamma tion of chest and lungs. and was brought into her ward on the 9th instant. Mr. Jones, the house surgeon, or dered him a leech, blister, a little medicine, barley water, and tea. About midnight he appeared in a fit, and in twenty minutes afterwards she tound hira dead, but did not inform either the mother, matron, or master of the infant's death until after seven o'clock that morning. By the Coroner—There were in the sick ward seven teen inmates, including six children. Within a fort night thirteen died in it. Mary Sanderson, mother of deceased, deposed, that in consequence of her hus band, a letter-press printer, having been out of work twenty-four weeks, they and their five children were compelled to become inmates of the workhouse last February. The children were then ill, and since their admission three were vaccinated. On Tuesday week deceased became very ill. The next day she brought him to the sick ward, but Mr. Jones did not see him until Thursday. There were only 16 beds in the nursery for 72 persons, so that five and six were corn- pelled to sleep together in one bed. The nursery was lately whitewashed and painted, and during the work the windows were left open, and at night the door was also open in consequence of the offensive smell of the paint. Since then eight children were seized with illness in the morning, and three women were carried from it to the hospital. At the coroner's request the jury here visited the nursery, and upon their return expressed their horror at so many being compelled to sleep together in such narrow beds, and declared that they could not hiss believed it possible for them to live in such a state. The Coroner subsequently adjourned the inquest to enable the workhouse authorities to vindicate themselves from the serious charges iu which the inquiry involved them. DEATH or THE MARQUIS OF 13Tirs.—The Mar quis of Bute died suddenly at Cardiff Castle on Saturday evening. So unexpected was the demise of the Noble Marquis, that he had entertained the magistrates, coun cil, and corporation of the town on Saturday, and died in an hour or two after retiring from the table. The late Noble Marquis had spent an immense sum on the har bour and docks at Cardiff, and his loss will be most severely felt, and most sincerely regretted. S Ny MARCH. 21, 1848. -IP-B-icE SD.

American realised 40. to 6d. per lb. The market was well supplied. In Railway Shares there was no alteration. Business was very quiet. There are private accounts from Vienna, which state that Prince Metternich was at Breslau, and that the Emperor Ferdinand had also left the capital. There is an idea that an abdication will be resolved upon in favour of the Emperor's brother. The accounts from the Continent generally describe confidence as being at a very low ebb. M essrs. M. G. Serrett and Co., bankers of Valenciennes, have sus pended. The houses here connected with Germany are quietly awaiting the course of events. The complaints constantly reiterated around us of the difficulty of winding up projected railway companies, and even of obtaining a certified statement of the position of the old lines, so as to set at rest the rumours and doubts that arise ever and anon about the undue complication of capital and revenue accounts, will, ere long cease, we trust, owing to the assistance to be afforded by the Rail way Commissioners, under Lord Monteagle's Bill, which provides that any ten or more shareholders holding 10,0001. of stock in a company, can demand a balance sheet, officially audited. The Bill states : " And be it enacted, that in any case in which the Commissioners of Railroads shall so think fit, it shall and may be lawful for them to require the share holders who shall have subscribed the requisition for the appointment of an auditor, as aforesaid, to pay or deposit with them a sum not exceeding two hundred pounds, to abide the result of the audit provided for under this Act ; and in case it shall appear to the said Rail way Commissioners that the requisition for such audit had been, in their judgment, made frivolously or vexa tiously, the cost of every such audit shall be paid out of such sum deposited, and the overplus, if any, after defraying such costs, shall be paid over to the said shareholders ; but in every case the costs of such audit, not exceeding the sum of two hundred pounds shall be paid over to defray the expense of such audit to the Railway Commissioners, by such company, in the same manner, and from the same funds out of which the expenses of the ordinary audits of the company are paid, and on which they are chargeable ; and the certificate of the v on under their buds, Commissioners of Railways , g i that such costa have been so incurred, shall be suffi cient warrant and authority to such company for such payment, which they are hereby required to make within' fourteen days of receiving suck certificate ; and in default of payment such costs may be recovered from such company in any of her Majesty's courts of record. "And be it enacted, that whenever any such requisition in writing, duly subscribed as aforesaid, shall be pre sented to such ordinary or extraordinary general meet ing, the directors of such company shall be required, within fourteen days of the receipt thereof, to transmit a copy of the same, signed by the chairman, deputy chairman, or secretary, to her Majesty's Commissioners for Railways, who shall thereupon proceed without delay to select, nominate, and appoint, by writing, under their hands and seals, one fit and competent person, and one or more accountants, to examine, audit, and report upon the Wanes sheet and accounts of such company as aforesaid; and every such auditor and accountant so ap pointed shall forthwith proceed in the execution of his duties under this Act." The extraordinary political changes abroad, which in other periods would have occasioned a decline in the funds of 2 or 3 per cent., appear to have no effect upon values, as speculators are indisposed to operate, and there are a few purchases of stock for money. Consols have varied from 81i to 80! for money, and from 81* to 80i for account. -Exchequer-bills of June have been depressed to 245. and 235. prem., sales of this security being rather pressed. The Foreign Securities are very quiet. Spanish Three per Conte., 21i; and Portuguese Four per Cents., 14*. Brazil Stock is 69. Mexican Bonds are 14*. Dutch Two. and-a-Half per Cents. have been 41*. In Railway Shares there is no particular change; some lines support their value rather better. ONE CLOSUCG PRICES OF nstrnsn FUNDS. O'CLOCK. rRICES 3 per Cent.
