THE PRESENT DISTRESS IN TRADE
fully explained in J. GROSSNITH'S
" GOVERNMENT UPON Piit.gp PRANcIPLES."
The cause is there predicated of the monetary difficulties ex-
perienced in 1860. The Crisis is at hand. Anxiety in busi-
ness has now become the grim torture. Purity of motive.
intelligently exercised, must animate all Governments, or all
is lost, All denominations of Constitutions are carefully
examined in J. Grossmith'a "Government upon First Prin-
ciples."

ON TRUE and FALSE SPERMATORRHCEA ;
with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors
in relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from De-
bility of the Generative system, or Sexual Hypochrondriasis.
Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD.
" Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent
practical contributions to German medical literature. This
is the first time, be informs us, that he has addressed himself
to the non-medicalreader. We trust that this may not be the
last, if he 52,1ta1l detect any other actually flagrant evil which it
may b' in his power to correct.' =London Medical Gazette.
" The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers
from this distressing malady by translating this little book,
and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unpalified
adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they
know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own
purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhcea and the
various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de-
scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of
the malady."—Medical Circular.

" We have dilated so long upon the contents of the preli-
minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for
any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pfckford ;
but the moderate price at which the `brochure' is sold, places
it within the reach of every one interested in the matter."—

JOZEAU'S COPAHINE MEGE.—Copaiba and
Cubebs are doubtless the best remedies, but are of a re-
pulsive taste and odour, and occasion colicky pains, nausea,
and gastric disturbance. M. Jozeau has succeeded in render-
ing them perfectly innocuous by increasing all their curative
properties. It has been adopted by the Paris Academy of
Medicine after more than a thousand trials in Paris and the
different London hospitals, viz., St. Thomas's, Guy's, and St.
Bartholomew's, under the care of Messrs. Lloyd, Poland. and
Legros Clark.—" Lancet," Nov. 6, 1857. The Copahinc, which

'THE VIGOUR OF YOUTH RESTORED IN

LITE.

This wonderful agent will restore manhood to the most
shattered constitution, whether arising from self-pollution,
excesses, nocturnal emissions, the effects of climate, or natu-
ral causes. The time required to cure the most inveterate
case is four weeks ; and, if used according to the printed in-
structions (which are very simple), failure is impossible.
This life-restoring remedy should be taken by all about to
marrY, as its effects are permanent. It is acknowledged by
the medical press to be the greatest discovery ever made.
Success in every case is as certain as that water quenches
thirst.

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.
" The Use and the Abuse of the Turkish Bath.—A very
useful pamphlet has been published by Dr. Culverwell, the
proprietor of the Turkish Baths in the neighbourhood of the
Post-office, which presents to the uninitiated a mass of inte-
resting information, while those who have already encouraged
this new system will derive additional advantage if they
observe some of the practical regulations which the writer
endeavours to enforce. '—Herald and Standard, Nov. 12;1861.
" The Post-office Turkish Baths, 19, St. Martin's-le-Grand.
—Dr. Culverwell has already established the reputation of
an able ph---sician ; he has now proved himself to be a worthy
philanthro.Pist. in as far as he has established, in the heart
of the City, an institution that more nearly than any disco-
very of moaern days, goes nearer the abolition of the practice
of physic, than any proposition or invention yet established,
the Turkish Bath. . . Our object being merely to direct
the attention of our City readers to -the fact that they possess
one of the best set of baths, at 'l9, St. Martin's-k-Grand,
which the country can produce; perfect in all its appliances,
and most admirable in effect. Dr. Culverwell has fitted up
his baths with a degree of elegance, luxury, and refinement,
which, considering the space at his disposal, is truly sur-
prising, while everything that taste or delicacy could desire
has been obtained to add to the comfort and luxury of the
visitor. . . We may justly say that if a man ever feels
himself regenerated and new made, it is oncoming out, of ,a
Turkish Bath."—Era, Oct. 13, 1861
