HEMAG N E T.
The Cheapest of the Cheapest, the Largest of the
Largest, and the Best of the Best,
Is Published EVERY MONDAY AFTERNOON, containing
Official and Accurate Reports of all the London and Provincial
Markets; and Faithful and Unbiassed Rep wts of all the Markets.
There is, in fact, no other Cheap Weekly Newspaper but the
" Magnet"—all others are Dear and Worthless—containing no-
thing but Stale and Old News, and Indecent Advertisements,
which will never be allowed to disgrace the columns of the
" Magnet." It removes all objections to Sunday Newspapers, be-
ing published at an early hour every Monday. Recollect the
" Alagnet" is the only Cheap London Weekly Newspaper. All the
preceding Pretended Cheap (but really Dear London Weekly News-
papers) and all the other enormously ear London Monday Weekly
Newspapers and Price Currents, will be driven out of the field by
the CHEAP and unprecedentedly comprehensive London Weekly
Newspaper, the " Magnet."
THE PRICE IS ONLY FOURPENCE.
Orders received at the Office of the "Magnet,'' No. 38,
Arundel-street, Strand, London, and sold by all Newsmen, where-
ever resident.

The Twenty-fourth Edition, with additional Cases and Remarks,
illustrating the Danger and Absurdity of relying on Internal Me-
dicines as a Sole Means of Cure.—Price 3s.
PRACTICAL OBSERVATIONS on STRIC-
TURES of the URETHRA and RECTUM, recommend-
ing an improved system for their treatment and cure; illustrating
its efficacy by numerous remarkable and highly important cases, in
some of which Strictures of from ten to twenty years' duration have
been totally removed in a few weeks, and its superiority thereby
fully established over every other method hitherto practised

"We earnestly recommend the cases related by Dr. Courtenay
to the perusal of such of our readers as are afflicted with the com-
plaints which the author has made the subject of these observations.
Several instances are adduced of the recovery of perfect health from
states which were considered hopeless by practitioners of eminenttalents and very extensive experience. We entertain the highest
opinion of Dr. Courtenay's professional skill, and congratulate him
on his successful and judicious
.application to these severe and often
fatal diseases.'..-European Magazine

We learn from Annenberg that the illness of the
ex-Queen Hortense becomes every day more serious:
Judge Lynch has been carrying his laws into exe-
cution at Memphis, Tennessee. One Mrs. Smith, a woman
of abandoned character, having attempted to horsewhip a re-
spectable widow lady of that town, the inhabitants rose en masse,
razed Mrs. Smith's house to the ground, and in the affray one
gentleman received a load of shot in the thigh. The people
afterwards assembled in public meeting, and formed themselves
into a Committee of the whole house, to carry Lynch law
into effect. By this very agreeable tribunal Mrs. Smith and
several gentlemen, her friends, were put into an open boat
without an oar, and set adrift in the middle of the Mississippi.
What became of them after being thus committed to the
tender mercy of the " Father of Rivets" has not transpired,
and possibly never will.
CAPTAIN ALEXANDER'S NEW WORK (A Voy-
age among the Colonies of Western Africa), which is shortly
to appear, is the result of an invitation which he had the
honour to receive from the Royal Geographical Society to
undertake an expedition, under the patr,,nage of Government,
for the purpose of exploring, and reporting on, the regions of
East Africa, from Delagoa Bay, westwards. In his progress he
visited Madeira, Teneriffe, Bathurst, on the Gambia, Sierra
Leme, Cape Coast Castle, and Accra, on the Gold Coast,
Prince's Island, In the Bight of Biafra, St. Helena, and As-
onsion. At each of they, places he remained sufficiently long
to collect important information regarding their present
state. His book must, thetefore, be looked forward to as one
of considerable interest.
