AFFAIRS ON THE ICE.—Rare old Winter!
crusty business " sliding scales" popular everywhere, the sur-
face of the lakes peopled with industrious thousands, and the Ashes
Snoozing under a coverlet of ice some nine or ten inches thick, but
every individual, lady and gentleman, fully appreciating the excel-
lencies of the WINTER ATTIRE prepared by E. Moen and Sole.
Never was there such a promiscuous gathering on the skating busi-
ness as during the past week, and never such a display of fashionable
and comfortable Dress. . .

The success of E. MosEs and Sort never appeared so much to ad-
vantage, and loud and numerous were the encomiums passed on
them by the skaters and the dense multitudes which lined the banks
of the waters.
It appears that the business of E. MOSES and SON must always
triumph, the best Dress being prepared by them for every season,
cold, wet, damp, frost, or snow, variety for all classes, and comfort-
able'ittlire for everybody at the most economical prices.
Skaters and sportsmen all patronise the productions of E. MOSES
and gm the style and fit of the Garments made by them being so
midi superior to any others.
Young gentlemen are fully equipped at E. MOSES and SON'S, their
Attire, Hats, Caps, Shirts, Hosiery, Boots and Shoes, &c., being un-
paralleled for superiority and economy.
For freezing or thawing times and all other times, for ladles and
gentlemen, men of business, mechanics, sailors, and emigrants, the
Xast and West End Establishment of E. Moses and Sox secure as-
tonishing advantages in Quality and Price.
The Wholesale Department affords the greatest advantages to
purchasers either for the home trade or the colonies.

CAUTION.—E. MOSES and SON regret having to guard the
Public against imposition, having learned that the untradesman-like
falsehood of "Being connected with their Establishment," or " It's
the same concern," has been resorted to in many instances, and for
obvious reasons, they beg to state that they have

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 of
Edinburgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical
Soslety, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c.
MAY 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-
easea known to modern pathologists. Long and practical experience
in the treatment of these diseases has proved that there are in exist-
ence 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 consequences 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.
DOCTOR LA'MERT has for a long series of years been engaged
in an extensive practice in the treatment of these delicate corn-
Plaints, and is the only legally qualified Physician who, regardless
of the taunts and envy of the hypocritical and mock-modest, has had
the confidence, through the medium of the public press, to direct
attention to these enormous evils, from which no grade of society is
free. In selecting this department of practice, he has been amply
reuirded 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 empirics, 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.
At home for consultation daily from Eleven till Two, and from
Six till Eight. All letters must contain the fee of IZ., and advice and
Medicines oan be forwarded to any initials or address.
It 13 desirable that patients wishing to consult Dr. LA'lliEtT
should first obtain a copy of his work on
SELF.PRESERVATION

Generative Debility, illustrated by fifty-coloured engravings, and des-
cribing in detail the various disorders resulting from secret habits and
excesses. The perusal of this treatise will assist in the correct
