A CAUTION.
_ .

Ipopularity of those excellent little Treatises,
1. known by the general tide of PINNOCK'S CATECHISMS
of the ARTS and SCIENCES, having led to certain imitations of
them, which arc alike derogatory to the reputation of the imitators,
and injurious to the celebrity of that system on which the genuine
Catechisms are written, Messrs. G. and W. 11. NVIIITTA KKR,
Booksellers, of Ave.3laria-lane, London, hereby inform the Trade,
and the Public in general, that they are determined to defend their
interests in the said Works, by enforcing such penalties against
every piratical attempt to injure them, as the Law of Copyright
authorises ; and they hope, after this public Notice, that uo Book-
sellers, or other Venders of Books, will place themselves in a situ.
ation to be troubled on this subject, by purchasing or selling such
imitations or surreptitious counterfeits.
PIN NOCK'S CATECHISMS comprise every useful subject in
History, Polite Literature, and the Arts, in Seventy separate Ca-
techisms, neatly ornamented, at Ninepence each ; or, bound toge-
ther, in 10 vols. price Four Ouinews, funning the only complete Ju-
venile Encyclopedia ever published.

QOURATES, by his discourse on Marriage, en crimp-
\7, Lured his auditors with the subject, that the married men flew
to their wires, and the bachelors hastened to be wedded and,
" The Spectator" has affirmed, mat the word "wife" is the most
agreeable and delightful name in nature.
The sacred institution, then, of marriage, emu asses the deside-
ratum of our enjoyment; teeming not only with happiness on
earth, but disposing Ole soul itself to harmonize with bliss
hereafter.

Previous, however, to entering into this hallowed obligation, it
becomes an imperative duty, not only to regulate the passions, but
to cleanse the grosser nature from those impurities which the free-
dom of unrestricted pleasure may have entailed upon it. To the
neglect of such attention are at:ributable many of those hapless
instances, which. while they excite the commiseration of the te•
holder, exeite in the sufferer regret and self-reproach.
Luxurious habits will efferninize the body—a residence in the
trupies will relax the elastic fibre--but excess of every kind will
weaken the system. To all such, then, we additive ourselves,
offering hope—energy. muscular strength—felicity; nor will nor
advances appear questionable, sanctioned as they arc by the multi-
plied proofs of twenty years' successful expricnce.'
The felicity of married life is sometimes disturbed by the sus-
pension of those blessings which should endear it—for the female
habit is often constitutionally weak—yet it eon be strengthened,
and deficient energy improved into healthfulness and vigour.
In every use we pledge ourskbility to cum speedily, and with
effect. Earnestly solicitous to expel the unfeeling empiric from the
position so proeumptuously taken up. we deviate from general prin
ciples with less hesitation ; and confident in our own honourable
integrity as Members of the College of Surgeons, we refer the suf-
fering community of either sex (especially those entering into ma-
trimonial life) at once to our house, where daily attendance is given
for personal consultation ; and letters from the country arc iniio.

The anniversary of the Association for the Preservation of Ship.
wrecked Seamen, was held on Friday se'noight at Mundeeley. At
twelve o'clock the arrival of Colonel Workhouse, Lieutenant of
the Comity, and Lord Suffield, was announced by a discharge of
cannon from the bills. The beach was covered with oontpany ;
among whoa' were ladies and gentlemen of the drat families in the
county, with many members °ldle Committees. The experiments
made in furtherance. of the benevolent objects of the Society, were
very suecis.ful. The ship from rhich the crew were to be taken
wee riding at anchor at the distance of 260 Tanis from the worse.
Mr. Thurrolira new.invented reel was placed by the mortar, and
two vots projected in succession, both of which had the desired
effectf obtaining communication from the shore to the ship. The
crew on hoard then put one rope round a pulley, and tied tile other
to it, and the life-boat being fastened to one of them, war hauled
from the shore to the vessel, without any one going off in her, oe
toe smallest exertion of the crew on board. A part of them then
descended into the boat from the main yard.arni by the toosai:.
sheet, and were hauled on shore, two of the crew bring left
on board : air-tight copper rollers were then sent of Icy the
same whip, and the two men having dyed them on, j- typed
overboard and were hauled on shore. lminediately afterwanis, the
method .1 extricating a crew by means of a hawser and travelling_
block extended from the shore to the msst.head, or tops, was put
in practice, and answered well ; this is intended for cliffs, d.c.
vil-en the beach cannot be resorted to. The next experiment was
be.ween the reel before mentioned and Captain Alanbr's old mode
at mining the row: in baskets. the resulr, of which %vas, thnt in
point of distance urn any preference could he given. The tom.
['Mite made their Report, " That they consider the reel to possess
many excellent qualities, and recommend the adoption of it at the
different stations along the coast of Norfolk, in conjunction with
Captain 31ariby's baskets." About four o'clock the- company left
the beach the Committee, with the usual visiting gentlemen, to
the number of twenty-live, then repaired to the New Inn, and par.
took of a dinner provided lot the occasion, the nom Colonel
‘Voilehouse in the chair, supported, by Lord Suffield on his right,
and Colonel retra on his left.—Rory Post.
