ON TRUE & FALSE SPERMATORRHCEti ;
with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Err ors
in relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from Debility
Generative System, or Sexual Hypochrondriasis. Translated fr o m
the German of Dr. PICKFORD, of the University of Heidelbe
—" Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent pra
Cti-
cal contributions to German medical literature. • This is the f lint
time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-m,1(11-
cal reader. We trust this may not be the last, if he s h all
detect any other equally flagrant e'eil which it may be in his
power to correct."—London Medical Gazette, May 30, lge 51.
—" The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from tl tis
distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying hs ,re
the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to
cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other obje ct
than to fill their own purses. The difference between true Sperm. a-
torrhcea and the various forms of disease which resemble it a re
accurately described, and thus a safe guide is offered for ti re
treatment of the malady "—Medical Circular, May 5, 184 2.
—" We have delayed so long upon the contents of the preliminas y
chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for any notice of
the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford; but the modem to
price at which the ' brochure' is soli, places it within the reach c if
every one interested in the matter. Dublin Medical Press, Apr

NEWBURY. JUNE 10.—This day's market is well supplied
with wheat, but the wet weather has much interrupted busi-
ness. The sales effected fully equal late rates, and some quan-
tity remains unsold. Barley scarce, and in fair demand at full
prices. Beans, peas, and flour, short supply, and in good re-
quest at full rates.
LivEarooL, JUNE 11.—The trade in corn since Tuesday
has been without animation, and a steady consumptive business
has proceeded. At this morning's market wheat and flour
maintained the late quotations. Oats and oatmeal were ratber
easier to buy. Barley, beans, and peas supported recent prices.
There was a good disposition to do business in Indian corn, and
buyers had difficulty in obtaining that article at Tuesday's
prices.
BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, JUNE 11.—The short supply
on show continues to restrict operations, but prices have still
an upward tendency. The refined market is very firm. Rum
has been in better demand this week, at former rates.—

ROYAL POLYTECHNIC INsmuTioN.—Yesterday an
adjourned meeting of the Committee of the House of Com-
mons on explosions in collieries took place, by appointment,
in the theatre of the institution, to investigate the facts in
connexion with Sir Humphry Davy's safety-lamp for
miners, &c., and the application of the stem jet, as sug-
gested by Mr. Goldsworthy Gurney, for the ventilation of
mines. Dr. e3achhoffner conducted a series of very conclu-
sive experiments on explosive gases,, &c. ; and his evi-
dence was taken down by the short-hand writer of the
House of Commons, and will be printed for the use of the
House. Several scientific gentlemen were examined by the
Committee, amongst whom were Robert Stephenson, Esq.,
M.P., Goldsworthy Gurney, Esq., James Darlington, Esq.,

tion, for the use of the theatre and apparatus, which had
been put at their disposal for this purpose.
