The essential obiect 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 perusal is
Particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of
their physical condition, and who are commons of having hazarded
the health, happlues3, and privileges to which every human being is
entitled.
It is absolutely necessary thatall men should know, that there are
principles cf personal rnanagemant 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 maybe 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.
T
heAuthor has for a series of years been engaged in an extensive
practice in the treatment of these delicate complaints, which have
unfortunately teen too generally confided to the care of ignorant
emnirics, who inflict great injury on those who are induced to place
aith in their pretensions.

The Kentish. Gazette' says :—Picking has commenced
in some few grounds in the neighbourhood of Canterbury,
and in all cases the produce has been short of expecta-
tion. In our next, as the operations of the picking will
have become more general, we shall be able to give a
more correct idea as to the growth. From the locality
of Maidstone similar accounts are received. In every
instance where picking has commenced, the hops come
down very light and " uncommon brown." In some
grounds picking has been suspended, the crop not
being sufficiently ripe. From some districts in West
Kent the crop falls very short from a half to a third,
the planters wondering what has become of the hops.
If it were not melancholy, it would be laughable,
says a correspondent from West Farleigh, to find ten
cwt. per acre dwindled down to three cwt. The quality
is mouldy and bad, and very few samples will be clean
and good. If the duty, says the same report, was fairly
set before picking at 60,0001., we cannot call it 40,000/.
as the hops come down. The picking will soon be over.
It will be expensive to the planter, and not remunera-
tive to the picker. There are several large growers in
the parish of Marden, of from 40 to 50 acres, who will
not grow a ton on 40 acres of land, and those gardensare
the best farmed. This parish will not average i cwt.
per acre ; they are getting very full of the red mould,
and by the time they are picked will not be larger than
a pea. The duty since picking has commenced has
somewhat receded, and betting is generally against
60,000/.
WORCESTER.—The duty is estimated at 10,0001. for
Worcester, meaning the hops grown in this county and
in Herefordshire. The planters of the latter county,
who have always hitherto sent their hops in waggons
over the Malvern hills, &c., to 'Worcester market, have
just resolved to establish a hop market at Hereford, and
a hop fair is in future to be held at that city on the first
Wednesday after the 19th of September. The first fair,
however, is to be held on the 27th (Wednesday week.)
The finest hop yard in the county belongs to a Mr.
Smith, a famous grower, and is within two miles of
Worcester.

SYRIANS CONTRIBDTING TO SEND THS GOSPEL TO
CHINA.—The congregations at Beirut are reported as at-
tentive and serious to a degree that makes it a pleasant
and hopeful work to preach to them. One thousand
piastres have been sent by them, to aid in furnishing the
million of New Testaments for China. Dr. Smith, at
the close of the year, had reached the 22d verse of the
18th chapter of the Acts in translating the New Testa-
went. The church at Hasbeiya has passed through
many trials the past year, owing to the anarchy pre-
vailing in "this stronghold of outlaws," Mount Lebanon
and in part to the dissensions between two of its mem.
hers ; but harmony again prevails among themselves,
and they are prepared to prosecute their work with froah
