MEDICAL ADVICE ON THE SECRET INFIRMITIES OF
YOUTH AND MATURITY.

DR. SAMUEL LA'MERT, 37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON,
Doctor of Medicine, and Matriculated Member of the University oi
Edinburgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical
Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall. London, &c., &c.
NIAY be consulted, personally, or by letter, on
the various disorders of the nervous and generative system,
resulting from juvenile irregularities and excesses, which have pro-
duced more misery in youth, degradation in manhood, and prema-
ture decay at all stages of life, than perhaps any other class of dis-
eases known to modern pathologists. Long and practical experience
in the treatment of these diseases has proved that there are in exist
mice secret causes of self-acquired miseries and disappointed hopes in
existence, traceable to certain pernicious habits, to which Nervous
Debility, various forms of Insanity, Unhappy and Unfruitfhl Marri-
ages, Impotency, Local and Constitutional Weakness, and their
endless modifications owe their almost entire origin.
It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are
principles of personal management which cannot be violated without
incurring:grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed'
the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties
may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed,
and how the evil and its con4equenc es may be avoided, and above all,
that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional
derangement to which the timely aid of scien aacannot apply a cure.
DOCTOR LA'MERT has for a long series of years been engaged
in an extensive practice in the treatment of these delicate com-
plaints, and s the only legally qualified Physician who, regardless

attention to these enormous evils, from which no grade of society is

rem arded by the great success that has attended his efforts in the
treatment of these cases, which are too generally confided to the
care of unqualified and ignorant enspirics. who, with their pirated
publications, assumed foreign names and titles, and pretended virtues
of their patent nostrums, have inflicted serious injury on those who
have been induced to place faith in their pretensions.

" The works of the buildings for the new Central Mar-
kets have," says the Constitutionnel, beeninterrupted.
The Emperor in visiting the works for the enlargement
of the railway station of the Rouen and Western lines
was struck by the lightness of the constructions, and he
thought that the system could be appropriately adopted
for the Central Markets. He has therefore, it is said,
charged M. Flachat, engineer of the Saint Germain
Company, director of the works of the station, to present
to him a new plan for the buildings for the markets. If
the system of construction adopted by M. Flachat
should prevail, the demolition of the buildings which
have been constructed would have to take place."
The Brest journals announce that the steam-frigates
the Pomone and the Caffarelli, and the men-of-war the
Hercule and the Duguesclin, were being armed in that
port ; but that their destination was not known.

TURKEY AND RUSSIA.
The following is contained in La Prcsse of yesterday :
" We have received news from Constantinople of the
30th of May.
" On the 26th of that month the Minister of Foreign
Affairs handed to the Ambassadors of the four powers
that signed the treaty of the 13th of June, 1840, a note,
in which he explains the measures taken by Turkey to
maintain the inviolability of her territories. This note,
which is couched in terms of great firmness, declares
that any arrangement with Russia is altogether out of
the question, if that power persists in the exorbitant
pretensions which it advanced through Prince Menschi-
k off.

"On the 28th of May M. de la Cour gave Redschid
Pasha the formal assurance of the support of the French
Government. Lord Stratford de Redoliffe was to have
a special audience on the 2d of June, for the purpose of
giving the same assurance on the part of the Govern-
ment of Great Britain.
"On the 29th of May Ali Ghalib Pasha, son of
Redschid Pasha, took his place in the Grand Council,
with a seat in the Councils of the Cabinet.

" The military preparations are being carried on with
great activity. On the 30th of May the Turkish fleet
anchored at the entrance of the Black Sea. It consists
of 22 sail. In the arsenal great progress was making in
the armament of 12 corvettes and several frigates, which
were to be ready for sea on the 2d of June.
" Throughout the week 140 ntah,oins or flat-bottomed
boats, have been engaged in transporting artillery and
ammunition to the fleet and the citadel which commands
the Bosphorus. On the 27th five Turkish vessels trans-
ported troops and marshal stores to Varna.
" The redifs, or militia, are pouring in from all the
provinces.
" On the 30th of May the Sultan proposed passing
the troops in review.
It was stated that M. Nicolas Aristarchi was to leave
on the 31st for Bucharest and Vienna. The object of
this mission has not transpired."
Accounts from Jassy state that Colonel Hernoff, the
Commander of the Russian Pontoon Brigade, has arrived
at Amga on the Moldavian border, on the left bank of
the Pruth.
Lord Westmoreland and the Baron de Mayendorff
have had a long conference at Vienna, and after it cou-
riers were dispatched to London and St. Petersburgh.
A telegraphic dispatch from Vienna says :—" Ac-
counts have been received from Constantinople to the
2d. Everything was tranquil."
We read in the Constitutionne/ :—" The telegraphic
dispatches from Trieste and Vienna spoke of a note ad-
dressed by the Porte to the representatives of the four great
powers at Constantinople after the departure of Prince
Menschikoff And the personnel of the lussia„ri embassy.
It was on the 26th ult. that M. d'Oseroff, who last
exercised the function of charg4 d'affaires at Constanti-
nople, quitted that capital. It was also on that day
that the Porte communicated to the four representatives
of France, England, Austria, and Prussia a sort of mani-
fe6to signed by Reschid Paths,. Our correspondent
sends us, in a letter from Constantinople, dated the
30th ult., an abridged translation of this document. It
is as follows :

The question of the Holy Places was arranged in a
satisfactory manner,' says Reschid when Prince
Menschikoff raised a question which has no analogy
with any other in the world. He demanded a treaty of
guarantee for the spiritual rights as well as for the rights,
privileges, and immunities accorded by the Sultan to
the Greek church, privileges, rights, and immunities
on which the Porte has never thought of encroaching,
and which, on the contrary, it is resolved scrupulously
to maintain. Whatever may be the desire of the Porte
to resume her relations with Russia, to draw them closer
and to consolidate them more than in the past, it could
not take such an engagement with Russia, either by a
treaty, or by the issuing of an official note, without
giving a fatal blow to its independence, and to the fun-
damental principles of its sovereignty. An understand-
ing could not, therefore, take place. Prince Menschi-
koff has broken off his relations ; he has quitted Con-
stantinople, and the legation of Russia has followed him.
No assurance having been given to the Porte that there
would be no war, and great military preparations being
made on the Ottoman frontiers, the Porte must also
think, by a measure of prudence, of not being unpro-
vided for. No hostile idea animates it; its confidence
in the equity and conservative sentiments of the Empe-
ror is complete, and it will not believe that he can make
war without motive. It would consider it an honour,
and its dearest wish is, to resume and maintain amicable
relations with him ; but, considering the circumstances
which have preceded, it is obliged to provide for its
safety and defence ; and with this object, from this day,
it also will make warlike preparations. It besides makes
an appeal to the powers who signed the treaty of the 13th
July. 1841. It firmly hopes that the powers will find
that, in this question, reason and right are on the side of
the Porte.'
The Turkish Government has not delayed in taking mea-
sures in conformity with this note. The most important
step taken up to that date was the sending in the morn-
ing of the 30th ult. part of the Turkish fleet from the
Bosphorus to the Black Sea. It was thought that part
would remain to defend the entrance of the Bosphorous,
and that the other part would go towards Varna and
other ports of the Black Sea menaced by Russian vessels.
The fleet consists of 22 sail. At the arsenal the arming
of 12 corvettes and of several frigates was being pressed
on ; they were to be ready to put to sea on 2d June. In
the course of the week 140 flat-bottomed boats conveyed
cannon and ammunition to the fleet and citadel which
command the Bosphorus. The reserves began to arrive
from all parts. On the 30th ult. a general review of the
troops was to be passed in the Great Field by the Sul-
tan and the Ministers, and they were afterwards to pro-
ceed to the Military College, to attend the examination
of the pupils. Letters from Ibraila, of the 23d ult.,
announce that the Russian troops had already made
some movements, and it was therefore believed that the
principalities had been occupied. The approaching arri-
val of the English and French fleets in the Dardanelles
was expected at Constantinople, and this hope was not
a vain one, as we now know."
The Journal des Debats having stated that Count
Panin, Minister of Justice in Russia, had arrived in Paris
with a special mission to the French Government, the
Oonstitutionnel says :—" We do not deny the arrival in
Paris of Count Panin, but he certainly does not come to
fulfil any diplomatic mission. We believe that his jour-
ney, announced some time ago, has no other object
than to accompany the Countess Panin to the waters of
Vichy."
The Debats of yesteday gives, without quoting it, the
article of the Assembles Nationale, stating that a note
has been received by the great powers from the Russian
Government, announcing the intention of occupying the
principalities of the Danube. It is probable, therefore,
that this information has been obtained by the Debats
and the Assemblee from the same source.
The German journals which arrived this morning do
not contain any new information of much importance, but
the general feature of the accounts is more pacific than
otherwise. It is again asserted that the offer made
by Austria to employ her good offices for the main-
tenance of peace has been accepted. A letter from
Vienna of the 9th, in the German Journal of Frank-
fort says :—" Yesterday a telegraphic dispatch brought
the intelligence that the Cabinet of St. Petersburg had
accepted the mediation of Austria in the Turco-Russian
difference. There cannot be any reason to doubt the
authenticity of this news, for not only has it been cur-
rent in official circles and at the Bourse, but also at the
hotel of the Russian Embassy."
The Cologne Gazette, under date of Berlin, 11th inst.,
says The instructions which Lord Stratford de Red-
cliffe has received from the English Government are
now known. He is authorised to act aacording to his
own judgment and to dispose of the English fleet, under
the restriction, however, of not considering the entrance
of the Russians into the Danubian principalities as a
declaration of war. He is also to use all his influence
with the Divan in order to induce it to come to an un-
derstanding with Russia."
The Trieste Gazette states from Constantinople, 30th
ult :—" Several Russian merchants have embarked in
the course of the week with all their property. Ad-
