THE MAIL STEAM-SHIP for AUSTRALIA,
4th April.—The QUEEN of the SOUTH, 1,800 tons, Com-
Inlander W. H. NORMAN, one of the fleet of the General Screw Steam-
;shipping Company, is appointed to Leave SOUTHAM PTON on the
4th of April, with her Majesty's mails, for ADELAIDE, PORT
PHILIP, and SYDNEY. The Queen of the South, which was the
pioneer ship of the Indian mail steam-ship line (via she Cape of Good
Hope), returned from Calcutta to Plymouth on the 26th of February
last, her third voyage, punctually to an hour—a significant fact, and
worthy of note. especially when it is considered that the distance is
about 27,000 miles by sea, and that she had to stop at seven ports
outward, and eight homeward. This feat has not been accomplished
by any ships in the world but by those belonging to the General
Screw Steam shipping Company. The Queen of the South is sister
:ship to the Argo (also one of this Company's fleet), which reached
Australia from Southampton in G 4 days, and returned to England
I n the same time.

The Argo was the first steam-ship that returned round Cape Horn,
thus literally circumnavigating the globe in 128 days, which has yet
to be equalled. It is deemed but just to the public to state these
facts, that they may know what this Company's magnificent vessels
have done, and thus be able to form a rational calculation as to what
they are likely to do in their service to Australia. It is also essen-
tial to prevent these vessels being confounded with others which
have not been so fortunate. -

The mail service to Australia will be continued by the General
Screw Steam-shipping Company every alternate month until further
Uottce.
The Queen of the South is ship rigged (the Argo was barque-
rigged), and it is not unreasonable to anticipate that, with favourable
-wind, she will make the passage to Australia hi 60 days, or less,
thus affording to passengers and shippers a most desirable opportu-
nity for quick transit, that, under existing circumstances in the
East, may possibly not occur again for some time. The arrange-
ments for passengers are unsurpassed for comfort and elegance.
Rates of passage•money, 50 guineas to 100 guineas. Freight. 9/.
per ton and 5 per cent.—Full particulars at the Company's Oflces,

Popular Treatise on the Physiology and Functions of Mar-

twenty years' experience in the treatment of Impuissance, Nervous

The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con-
sequences resulting from certain habits, 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. Its perusa lie
particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts
ed
of
their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazard
the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is

entitled.
f It is absolutely necessary that all men should know, that there are
principles of personal management which cannot be violated without
incurring grevous penalties, d when wisdom and regret succeed
the heydayi of inconsiderate an
self-indulgence, how these penalties
may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed,
and how the evil and its con,equene 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 science cannot apply a cure.
The Author has for a series of years been engaged in an extensive
practice in the treatment of these delicate complaints, which are
unfortunately teen too generally confided to the care of ignorant
empirics, who inflict great injury on those who are induced to place
faith in their pretensions.
