BY F. B. COURTENAY,

" Those who complain most loudly are those only who know not
how to use the common instruments
geons has been marred with all kinds of violence, an indifference
about the sinaple cure of diseases, and a passion for operations and
all the excesses and horrors of surgery."—John Bell's Surgical
Observations.—" In proaf of his views he (Mr. Courtenay) has
given the history of a great many cases successfully treated, as bad
as any which Mr. Syme adduced, and on which he had operated.
Such ire cases ix., xi., xii., and xviii. No. ix. had resisted, for a
period of twelve years, the treatment by dilitation, and was finally
removed in as many weeks. But cases xviii. and xis. appear, both
in duration, severity, and complication of symptoms, of a more ag-
gravated character than any detailed by Mr. Syme, and yet the
ireatment adopted by Mr. Courtenay proved eminently successful."

SWITZERLAND.
_ _

" Our letters from Berne, of the 29Th says the
Journal des Debats, states that it appears certain that
the Federal Council is determined at last to take vigo-
rous measures against the Dictator of Geneva, M. JAMES
FAZI, who refuses to execute the orders of the Federal
Government relative to the refugees, a considerable
number of whom are still at Geneva. M. mesa,
Federal Commissioner, delegated at Geneva for this
matter, whose decision and energy are universally
praised, was to have sent in a report to the Federal
Council, altogether unfavourable to M. JAMES FAZI,
for his non-compliance with the orders of the Federal
Government. He has, it is said, presented on the point
an ultimatum to the Government of Geneva. Public
opinion in Switzerland has frequently declared strongly
against the political conduct of M. JAMES FAZY, and an
occupation of Geneva by the Federal troops would cer-
tainly not be disapproved of by all who wish for order
and tranquillity in Switzerland."
According to the last census in Switzerland, the popu-
lation of that country amounts to 2,302,740 individuals,
of whom 71,570 are foreigners. Of the whole body
1,417,786 are Protestants, 881,809 Boman Catholics,
and 3,145 Jews. Amongst the foreigners are 1,085
travellers and 1,539 political refugees. The canton of
Berne contains 458,304 inhabitants, of whom 6,764 are
foreigners.

SWITZERLAND.

"Our letters from Berne, of the 29th ult.," says the
Journal des Debats," states that it appears certain that
the Federal Council is determined at last to take vigo-
rous measures against the Dictator of Geneva, M. JAMES
FAZY, who refuses to execute the orders of the Federal
Government relative to the refugees, a considerable
number of, whom are still at Geneva. M. MOOG,
Federal Commissioner, delegated at Geneva for this
matter, whose decision and energy are universally
praised, was to have sent in a report to the Federal
Council, altogether unfavourable to M. JAmas FAZY,
for his non-compliance with the orders of the Federal
Government. He has, it is said, presented on the point
as ultimatum to the Government of Geneva. Public
opinion in Switzerland has frequently declared strongly
against the political conduct of M. JAMES FAZY, and an
occupation of Geneva by the Federal troops would cer-
tainly not be disapproved of by all who wish for order
and tranquillity in Switzerland."
. . _

According to the last census in Switzerland, the popu-
lation of that country amounts to 2,302,740 individuals,
of whom 71,570 are foreigners. Of the whole body
1,417,786 are Protestants, 881,809 Roman Catholics,
and 3,145 Jews. Amongst the foreigners are 1,085
travellers and 1,539 political refugees. The canton of
Berne contains 458,304 inhabitants, of whom 6,764 are
foreigners.

GUTTA. PERCHA TUBING.

MANY inquiries having been made as to the
Durability of this Tubing, the Gutta Perch& Company have
pleasure in drawit2g attention to the following letter received
From Mr. C. Hacker, Surveyor to the Duke of Bedford :
"Office of Works, Woburn-park, Jan. lff, 1852.

" In answer to yoar inquiries respecting the Gutia Percha Tubing
for Pump Suctions, I Had that the water has not affected it in sthe
least, although it will eat lead through in two years ; we have
adopted it largely, both on account of being cheaper than lead, much
easier fixed, and a more perfect job.
" Yours, &c., " C. HACKER."

At an Extraordinary General Meeting of the Shareholders of this
Company, held on Wednesda3r, • the 10th of March, 1852, at the
Offices of the Company, 65, Moorgate-street, London, Sir R. I.
Routh, K.C.8., President, in the Chair—lt was resolved, that
" The Directors are hereb3 authorised and directed to borrow the
sum of One Hundred and Fifty Thousand Pounds upon the security
of the Debenture Bonds of the Company, in conformity with the
41st Clause of the Act of Parliament of Canada, cap.
7th."
In accordance with the above resolution, the Directors are pre-
pared to receive offers of the whole or part of 100000/. in sums of
1001. and upwards, at the rate of 4% per cent. per, annum interest,
and for periods of five, seven, or ten years.
The Capital of the Company is 500,0001. in 25,000 Shares of 201.
each, of which sum only 11. per Share is intended to be called up ;
the uncalled capital, 375,000/., remaining as security to those who
may lend money to the Company for the specified periods agreed on.
Under no circumstances will the amount of money received on de-
posit exceed the amount of Share Capital uncalled, which of Itself
will constitute a complete guarantee for the re-payment of deposits
or loans made to the Company: But in adaition to, and distinct
from it, the Depositor will have the entire investments of Share and
Loan Capital in Canada as a collateral sentrity, and in no case does
the amount lent upon mortgage of land exceed half the marketable
value of the property appraised by competent persons. Thus if the
Debenture Debt be 375,0001., equal to the uncalled part of the capi-
tal, and therefore the largest sum that will he raised, it•will be se-
cured by mortgages for 500,000/. on real estates of the value of at
least 1,000,0801.
There is a general registration of deeds relating to Land in Ca-
nada, which enables the Company to ascertain with certainty the
state of every title offered to them In security for Loan.
