By SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D.
37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON,

D :ctor 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 fr6m 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,
egally 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

Cases.

A Bill embracing the proposed objects of the present Company was
hefore the last Parliament, when, after passing the Standing Orders
and the first and second reading, it was submitted to the Select
Committee on the Metropolis Water Supply. The Government and
the other Bills occupied the attention of the Commltee till the ter
end of May, when this Bill was called on. and the evidence gone
Into ; but from the improbability of being able to pass the Bill through
the Horse of Lords in that Parliament, and in order to avoid large
and useless expenditure, by the advice of Counsel, it was withdrawn,
upon the understanding that the same measure would be proceeded
with in the next Parliament.
The Metropolis Water Bill passed last Session removes all uncer-
tainty as to the extent of interference by the Legislature with regard
to Water Companies, thereby enabling the Promoters of this Under-
taking to frame their measures t meet all the requirements of the
New Ace, and likewise to offer to the capitalist a perfectly secure
means of investment.
The Water of the River Wandle has long been celebrated for its
:treat purity, and its recent analysis by eminent chemist', fully con-
firm the high character given to it by the late Mr. Telford and Dr.
Rostock, in their examination by the Government Commissioners on
Water supply.
Every Householder South of the Thames raying Water Rates, is
aware of the high charge for the present inferior and insufficient
supply. The proposed rates of this Company will be upon a much
lower scale. It will thus be evident that upon the point of economy
alone, they must command the preference or consumers; but when
the purity of the water is considered, and that the supply will be
constant and unlimited, all competition will necessarily be su-
perseded.
kltr ough inordinate profits are not contemplated by the Com-
pany, yet it is firmly believed, looking at the vast extent of the
surrey District, and the daily increase of buildings there, that the
present undertaking vi ill afford an immediate, sound, and si eady
investment for capital, with every prospect that the maximum di-
vidend, now al:owed by the Legislature, namely, 101 per cent., will
be speedily attained; proposals having already been made by large
consumers, to take several millions of gallons daily.
After payment of the Deposit, no call will be made until an Act
he obtained, in which it will be provided that no Call shall exceed
It. per Share, or be made at more frequent intervals than three

months.
Applications fer Shares to be made to the Brokers; or to the
secretary, at the omccs or tue Cvuwany, No. 28. commit, where:
the plans and models of Mr. Thompson's SunTEaseNEous REsEß-
vonts may be seen, and detailed information obtained.

" we promised in a former number that we should recur to this
work, in order to exhibit its aim more clearly. The author lashes
with great severity the impostors who make a livelihood by preying
on the credulity of the public. The tribe of 'Quiet Syrnathisers'
and ' Medical Friends, are mercilessly exposed ; arid if this book
could find its way into the hands of those who stiffer frAn the com-
plaint of which it trests, we are satisfied that many hundreds would
be saved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is of
less importance, though it is that which the quacks most prize—
much money . .This volume is well qualified to put an end to the
empirical system of treating Spermatorrhcea, and to place the treat-
ment upon a mole rational and physiological basis. It is, therefore,
likely to do much good."—Medical Circular, June 16, 1852,

"In proof of his views he (Mr. Courtenay) hag given

as any which Mr. Syme adduced, and. on which he had operated.
Such are cases ix., xi., xil., and xviii. No. ix. had resisted, for a
Period of twelve year, the treatment by dilltation, and was finally
removed iu as many weeks. But cases xviii. and xix. appear, both
In duration, severity, and complication of symptoms, of a more a;-
gravated character than any detailed by Mr. Syme, and yet the
treatment adopted by
Mr. Courtenay proved eminently eaoCeeeful."
