CIRCULATION OF THE MORNING PAPERS.
SUPPLEMENTS TO THE MORNING ADVERTISER.
THE extraordinary increase which has taken
place in the circulation of the " Morning Advertiser" since its
enlargement, three years ago, has been followed by so great an
Influx of advertisements as to render indi-pensable the publication of
aee seriesoniino
of SUPPLEMENTS after the commencement of the
approaching session• Supplements to the " Morning Advertiser will
Y be issued as often as the pressure of Adverti-ements or
intelligence may render their publication requisite. To form an ilea
of the increase which Pas taken place in the circulation of the
Morning Advertiser," it will only be necessary to give the News-
paper Stamp Returns for 1850, and the circulation, as nearly as may
be ascertained, of the various morning papers. except one, at the
present time. In 1850 the Stamp Returns gave the following re-
sults :
MORNING ADVERTISER • • • • • • • • 1,549,843

Morning Chron!cle .. • • • • . • • • • • • •
Morning P:ist .. ••••••••••" • • • • • • " • ' • • 828'000
It will be observed from this statement, that, omitting the `• Times,"
the circulation of the "Morning Advertiser" was then tar above that
Of its morning contemporaries. Were the stamp Returns to be given
down to the present time, the relative circulation of the" Morning
Advertiser to its four morning contemporaries avuming that their
circulation has undergone no diminution—would be as f Vows:—
MOR NIN G ADVER ISER _• • .. • • • . 2,356,260

It will be seen that the present circulation of the " Morning
tiser" is more than double that of the two highest of its four contem-
Poraries, and nearly treble that of one of their number The annals
Of journalism contain no instance of success at all approaching to this.
Such brilliant progress Is the best compliment which could be paid to
the " Morning Advertiser's entire independence of all parties and
Governments, and its earnest and. unceasing advocacy of the popular
cause.

MEDICAL ADVICE ON THE SECRET INFIRMITIEi OF

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-
eases known to modern pathologists. Long and practical experience
in the treatment of these diseases has proved that there are in exis!-
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 Unfruitful 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 con,equenc 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.
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 is the only legally qualified Physician who, regardless
