The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful eon-
s quences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses
• hich have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man-
nod, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, an)
ther class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is
,articularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of
their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazard&
the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is
entitled:

tt is absolutely necessary that all men should know, that there art
"rinciples of personal management which cannot be violated without
icurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed
o heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties
ay be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed,
.nd how the evil and its conseonences may be avoided, and above all,
t at there is scarcely any de:tree of physical infirmity or functional
erangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.
^he Author has for a series of years been engaged in an extensive
itactice in the treatment 01 these delicate complaints, which have
intortunately been too generally confided to the care of ignorant
emniries, who inflict great injury on those who are induced to place
filth in their pretensions.

SUNDERLAND DOCK.

The annual meeting of this company was held at Sun-
derland on Tuesday ; Ur. G. Hudson, M.P., in the chair.
The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report,
said he never addressed a meeting of shareholders with
greater pleasure. It was but nineyears since they obtained
their act; and this year, when the southern outlet was
completed, they would offer such facilities to shipping
entering from the sea as there was not in the district ;
and, as a marine work, their docks would compare with
any undertaking in the world. The railway system had
been of immense profit and benefit to the public,
but the shareholders in these undertakings had found
that their profits upon increased traffic were swallowed
up by working expenses never anticipated ; but, so far
as the dock was concerned, as they increased their re-
venue the directors anticipated that they would decrease
their working expenses. He then pointed to the gradual
and progressive increase in their revenue year by year
since the dock was opened.
The report was adopted, and a dividend of 4 per cent.
upon the ordinary shares was declared payable on the
15th of September next.
Mr. C. Bramwell, Mr. T. Reed, Mr. N. Plews, Mr.
R. Scarfield, and Mr. J. Hartley, the retiring directors,
were re-elected ; and the retiring auditor, Mr. C. S.
Moon, was also re-elected.
The meeting was then made special, and the CHAIR-
MAN moved a series of resolutions, authorising the di-
rectors to raise 112,0001. by the creation of 18,000 5 per
cent, preference shares of 61. ss. each, to be redeemed
at the end of 10 years, if desirable.
The resolutions were unanimously adopted, and the
meeting separated.

RUSSIA.-

The Cabinet of St. Petersburg has addressed to
its diplomatic agents in foreign countries a circular,
dated July 24, remarking on and criticising the
terms of the notification given by the English Go-
vernment for the blockade of the Russian ports in
the Gulf of Finland.
A letter from Odessa of the 23d ult., in the Wan-
derer of Vienna, says :—" The cholera, which has
caused immense ravages among the troops in the
Crimea, is declining here. The latest news from
Sebastopol is of the 20th. All the hospitals on the
southern side have been evacuated. The division of
Gen. Bellegardehasrerurned, and joined thereserve
of the 4th corps of infantry, commanded by General
Wiscniefski. Gen eralGortschakoff has announced to
his troops, in an order of the day, .-the death of
Admiral Nachimoff, and spoken of, him in the
highest terms of praise. It appears that after the
battle of the Alma the Admiral wanted to go. out
of the harbour with the fleet, and on Prince Men-
schikoff's refusal had applied to the Emperor and
to the Grand Duke Constantine, upon which he
was. told that the first virtue of the soldier was
obedience. Since then, there had constantly
existed a feeling of between the Admiral
and the Prince. Nachimoff saw with the greatest
concern his vessels sunk one after another, and itis
believed that lie exposed his life intentionally, so
great was his grief at the loss of his fine fleet."

DUBLIN AND WICKLOW.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held in
Dublin on Tuesday ; the son. F. Ponsonby in the chair.
The report of the directors stated that, notwithstanding
the peculiar severity of the winter and spring, which
greatly interfered with the traffic of the line, the gross
receipts, compared with those of the preceding half-year,
did not exhibit so serious a diminution as might have
been anticipated. The ordinary passengers on the line,
exclusive of subscribers, have exceeded 130,000, giving
a weekly average of 5,014. The capital account to the
30th of June last showed that the receipts were 551,4721.,
and the expenditure 530,3801., leaving a balance of
15,0811.
After considerable discussion, the report was adopted,
and the meeting separated.

CORK AND BANDON.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held yes.
terday at the office, Gracechurch-street ; Mr. T. Wink•
worth in the chair.

Mr. H. W. Wood, the secretary, read the report.
The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report,
said that, with one or two exceptions, the liabilities of
the company had been ascertained. The prospects of
traffic were encouraging, and the receipts for the
past month amounted to 1,0131. against 8111. at the
corresponding period of last year, showing an increase
of 2021., or about 25 per cent. Owing to the financial
position of the company they had been compelled to
use the net revenue for the purposes of capital, but if
they were enabled to carry out certain arrangements
there would be enough left to pay the dividend. They
had received subscriptions for 23,0001. out of the pro-
posed new capital of 30,0001. The first instalment,
amounting to 5,0001., bad been paid, and they could
rely on the receipt of 4,0001. more. It only required
the assistance of the shareholders who had not yet sub-
scribed to complete the new capital. The English
shareholders had subscribed their proportion of the new
capital, and so had the directors.
Mr. BATES seconded the motion.

Mr. SWANSTON thought, if it were possible to assure
the shareholders that 30,0001. would be sufficient to
pay off the liabilities of the company, that the rest of
the money would be forthcoming. - -•
Mr. GREHAN said that, so far as they could ascertain,
they believed that all the liabilities would be within the
limits of the new capital. Some difficulties had been
met with In respect to the Government loan ; a warrant
had been filled up for the sale of the4line, in consequence
of some of the instalments due not being -paid, but the
directors came forward with hard cash, and saved the
company for the present. It only remained for a few
proprietors to exert themselves, and raise the remainder
of the money required, which would place the company
in a sound position.
Mr. SWANSTON would do everything in his power to
induce the shareholders in his district to subscribe and
pay their proportion of the new capital.
The CHAIRMAN said they were all indebted to Mr. Gre.
han for his great exertions to obtain subscriptions for the
30,1001. to relieve the company from its difficulties. Sub-
scriptions for 23,0001. had been obtained, and it was hoped
the other shareholders would make up the rest. The
directors had made very considerable pecuniary sacrifices
for the company, and they had no doubt of the prospe-
rity of the line when released from its difficulties.
Resolutions were passed adopting the report, and
voting the best thanks of the meeting to Mr. Grehan
and the Dublin gentlemen associated with him for their
exertions to promote the interests of the company.
The proceedings concluded with a vote of thanks to
the directors, secretary, and other officers of the com-
pany for their valuable services.
