VINEGAR.—In consequence of the publication
in the " Lancet" of 28th ultimo of a Series of Analyses of
this Article, in which the Vinegar made by us is reported to contain
Sulphuric Acid, we have addressed to the edi for of that periodical
the following letter, and hope from his sense of justice the adoption
of the only honourable alternative—an acceptance of the challenge
we have given, or an unhesitating withdrawal of the calumnious im-
plication,

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LANCET.
Worcester, September 8, 1852.
Sir,—Otir attention has been called to an article in the " Lancet"
of the 28th of August last, on " Vinegar and its Adulterations."
You therein describe the samples of Vinegar, which you state to
have been furnished to you by retail dealers as our Vinegar, as con-
taining a considerable quantity of sulphuric acid. You also state
that the samples were not procured direct from the makers, because
of the difficulty experienced in obtaining them by parties not engaged
in the trade.
You will remember that, by a letter dated the 3d day of January
last we offered for your inspection several bottles of our Vinegar,
and forwarded them to you through your publisher, Mr. Churchill,
with a note from Sir Charles Hastings, M.D., of Worcester, vouching
for our veracity.
We have also an authorised agent in London, Mr. Waters, of 15,
Whitecross-street ; we are, therefore, surprised at your statement
that any difficulty existed in procuring samples, as far as our firm
were concerned.

We reiterate positively our assertion in our letter of the 33 of
January, that no sulphuric acid is employed in our manufacture, and
we therefore assert that the results of the analysis published in your
columns are mistaken, or that the Vinegar subjected to your test
was not the product of our manufactory.
We are willing to have samples of our Vinegar subjected to the
severest analysis by any two eminent chemists, the one to be named
by Yourself and the other by ourselves---the mode of procuring the
samples to be decided by the gentlemen appointed ; or we will
submit our Vinegar to any one of the undermentioned gentlemen :
Dr. Lyon Playfair, Dr. Graham, or Dr. Hoffman.
we propose that the expenses of the investigation should be
paid by ours,,,c,el,,vest"tprved it should be found that there is any free

SELF-PRESERVATION; an
Analytical Investigation of the Physiology and Functions of
Marriage, in all the bearings in which that important subject affects
the health and happiness of Man, with its Disqualifications and Impe-
diments, tracing their origin to the effects of juvenile solitary habits,
Youthful excess, tropical climates, or close study ; followed by prac-
tiealremarks, founded on twenty years' experience in the treatment
of Impuissance, Nervous Debility, Local Weakness, Spermatorrhcea,
SYPhilis, and all diseases of the Urinary and Generative System. Il-
lustrated by 50 coloured Ensrravings, on the Anatomy of the Repro-
ductive Organs and their relative conditions in Health and Disease.
By SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D.,
W. BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON,
Doctor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the University of Edin-
burgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society,
Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c.

The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful
consequences resulting from irregularities and excesses, which
have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man-
hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any
other class of disease known to modern pathologists. The treatment
adopted is founded on experience gained in the most celebrated
schools of medicine both in this country and in continental Europe.
The results of the knowledge thus acquired are here condensed under
the personal supervision of Dr. La'Mert, himself one of the few
legally qualified physicians who have devoted their whole and un-
divided studies to this important branch of medical science. In short,
every peculiarity relating to the treatment of the diseases incidental
to the generative system, and the means of Immediate relief and
ultimate cure are described in detail. The professional reputation
of Dr. La'Mert, who has taken the most distinguished medical
and academic honours at home and abroad, is in itself a sufficient
guarantee that those who may place themselves under his care
will, in every instance, meet with that delicate consideration and
inviolable secrecy which are so requisite in the treatment of these
vases. - _
