The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con-
itecinences 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 pernsa is
Particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of
their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded
the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is
entitled.
It is absolutelyincurring
grievousneesary thatall men should know, that there are
principles of personal management which cannot be violated without
penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed
of inconsiderate the heyday self-indulgence, how these penalties
may be mitigated, bow the sting of their bitterness may be removed,
and how the evil and its con-equenc es maybe avoided, and above all,
that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional
derangement to which the timely aid of science capnot 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
luifortunately teen too generally confided to the care of ignorant
ern/Arica, who inflict great injury on those who are induced to place
faith in their pretensions.

N TRUE & FALSE SPERMATORRHCEA,
with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors
In elation to the Treatment and Cure of the Impulssant and Sexual
Hypochondriacs,
Translated from ,he German of Dr. PICREORD.
T 1 which is added, an ES.SAY on SEXUAL DEBILITY, by the
Editor.
Dr. Plcliford 's known to English readers by his frequent practi-
cal contributions to German medical literature. This is the first
time, he informs AS, that be hash ddressed himself to the non-medi-
cal reader. We trust this may tbe the last, if he shall .etect any
other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his .ower to corre
ympact."
—London Medical Gazette, May 30, 1851. The tribe of 'Quiet ere
and' M edical Friends,'are mercilessly exposed ; and if this book
xiuld find its way into the hands of those who staffer from the com-
plaint of which it treats, we are satisfied that many hundreds would
se saved much needless suffering of kody and mind, and what Is
ess Importance, though it is that which the quacks most prize—
much money ......This volume is well qualified to put an end to the
e-noirical system of treating Spermatorrhcea, and to place the treat-
moot upon a more rational and physiological basis. It is, therefore,
likely to do much goo."—Modirl Circular, June 16, 1852.

and has been in store in their works since that period. ,
WOOLWICH, May 4.—The Philip Laing, No. 41,

Turkey. They have been formed into four companies,
and were inspected in the east square of the Royal Ar-
tillery barracks, at 10 a.m. to-day, by Colonel TVA,
superintending staff officer of pensioners, accompanied
by Major John Forbes, staff officer of pensioners at
Woolwich. About 5Q of, the, pensioners are accommo-
dated in the Royal Marine barracks, and the others in
the Royal Artillery barracks.
ROYAL ARTILLERY.—WOOLWICH, MAY 4.—His lord-
ship
the Master-General has appointed Lieutenant F. S.
Seale to the Royal Horse Artillery, in the room of Lieu-
tenant Hay, promoted. In consequence of the above,
the under-mentioned officers have been posted as fol-

tenant-Colonel Ormsby, to the sth battalion, on major's
pay, vice Hill ; First Lieutenant H. Percival, to Cap-
tain Blackwood Price's company, let battalion, vice

SHEERNESS. MAY 3.—Captain Fraser, now in com-
mand of No. 8, Captain Ayde's company, 9th battalion,
marched out of garrison at three p.m. this day, and pro-
ceeded on board the steam-packet Elfin, en route for
Dublin, and from thence for Portobello Barracks. Cap-
tain Ayde is at present brigade-major of the artillery at
the seat of war in the East. Capt. CannOn's 6th com-
pany of the 13th battalion, arrived here this day from
Woolwich, for garrison duty. This company being en-
tirely composed of newly-raised volunteers, preparing
for the seat of war, will continue their drill exercise, to
perfect them for general duties. A large number of
fine young men are, still continuing to join the corps,
the bounty now given being 51. 15s. 6d. There are at
present four companies of Artillery here, most of whom
are newly-raised men, and are sent here for the facilities
which this garrison affords for gun and field drill, under
the command of Colonel P. V. England, R.A., com-
mandant of this garrison.
WINDSOR, Thursday.—This morning a squadron of
about 100, consisting of men picked from each troop o
the Royal Horse Guards (Blue), with the regimental band,f
left the Cavalry Barracks, Spital, under the command of
Captains Sheffield, Sutton, Bredon, Billington, Leslie,
and Dimmer, to take part in the funeral procession of
their late Colonel, the Marquis of Anglesey. The
squadron will escort the body of the gallant and dis-
tinguished nobleman from Uxbridge House to the
Euston-square station, whence it will be conveyed by
railway to Beaudesert, the family seat of the Pagets, in
Staffordshire. Colonel the Hon. Cecil Forester, and all
the officers of the Blues, will also join the squadron to-
morrow morning. It is believed in the regiment that
the vacant colonelcy-in-chief will be conferred upon
Lord Raglan.
THE 97TH FOOT.—Yesterday afternoon the 97th regi-
ment of Foot, under the command of Col. Lockyer, had
a grand field-day in the Home-park, Windsor. The men
were each supplied with 10 rounds of blank cartridge. The
precision with which they fired, and the clever manner
in which they went through all their movements, won
the admiration of the spectators, and called forth the
commendation of their gallant commander. Two officers
of the Monmouthshire Militia were present on the acca-
will'
occa-
sion. It is still uncertain when the regiment leave
Windsor, no definitive orders having yet been iss
from the Horse Guards.

NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE.
A large number of gun-room officers, who arrived in
the Himalaya from the fleet under Vice-Admiral Dundas,
arrived at Portsmouth on Wednesday evening from
Southampton, and were berthed aboard the flag-ship
Victory. Yesterday evening they embarked in n
the
steam-tender Avon for passage to the Downs, to joi
ships for the Baltic fleet, where the Commander-in-Chief
will dispose of them throughout his force.
The Russian prisoners taken in the Kamschatka, in
the Channel, were yesterday taken from the Crocodile
to their vessel in the West India Docks, in order that
they might possess themselves of their clothing or other
personal effects on board. They were subsequently em-
ployed berthing the ship, and putting her in a fit con-
dition to discharge her cargo. They afterwards re-
turned to the Crocodile. These men will be allowed to
ship on board British merchant vessels. Most of them
speak very good English. The Russian prises Gefion
and Ahlstrom have been declared illegal captures, ac-
coading to the terms of her Majesty's proclamation, and
were yesterday released, sailing from Portsmouth for

Norway.
An enormous shipment of supplies for the Black Sea
fleet was made yesterday from the Royal Clarence vic-
tualling establishment at Gosport, under the superin-
tendence of Captain Courtenay. Such a stock has never
before, we believe, been sent off at one despatch from
any victualling yard in England. It consisted of beef,
.pork, flour, peas, chocolate, rum, and vinegar, in up-
wards of 1,500 casks, amounting to 300 tons in weight,
and freighting 63 full-sized waggons of the South-Wes-
, tern Railway Company. To show the extraordinary
expedition with which this immense supply was for-
warded from the Clarence-yard, we have only to state
that at 8 in the morning the order from the Admiralty
was received, requesting that the supplies might be at
Southampton yesterday, without fail, as they were re-
quired for shipment on board the Peninsulaned hr and
arOrien all
-
tal Steam Company's vessel Simla. It raid
day, but Mr. Davis, the. Master-Attendant, and Mr.
Pinhorn, the storekeeper of the Clarence-yard, were out
in it, seeing to the filling up and closing the casks, the
whole 1,500 of which were in the vraggons, by the aid of
Mr. Superintendent Stevens, of Gosport station, and on
their way to Southampton cloaks at 6.26 p.m, the same
day. The Simla leaves to-morrow with the India and
China mail, and, besides the above stock of provisions,
she takes a number of staff officers of the army and their

horses fur Turkey.
The Harkaway transport-ship, having on-board 58
horse artillerymen, arrived in.the Sound yesterday after-
noon in a leaky state. On Sunday afternoon she struck
upon a wreck off Bury Head, which is supposed to be
the vessel which was run down about a month ago.
The Harkaway will be taken into dock. The horses
and stores will not be taken out unless absolutely neces-

sary.
The Indefatigable is to be comtnissioned immediately.
Admiral Sir W. Parker commences his duties at Ply-
mouth on Saturday, vice Sir John Ornmanney, who in-

Advices were yesterday received that the three French
transport ships, Espr:to, Gabriel, and Etienne, had
arrived at and sailed from Malta for Gallipoli with up-
wards of 2,000 troops.
It is understood that her Majesty's steamers Strom-
boli and Gallipoli have sailed for the Baltic, and net, as
has been reported, in pursuit of an imaginary Russian

in the brief space of half an hour afterwards every man
was regularly told off to his station in the troop-ship.
Two privates absented themselves on the regiment falling
in at barracks in the morning, whose places were quickly
filled up by two who had previously been selected to re-
main with the depot. The ship dropped out of harbour,
at three yesterday afternoon, and at five she was on her
way to the Bosphorus.
Yesterday upwards of 200 young men arrived at the
head recruiting offices, Delahay-street and Duke-street,
Westminster, to join this different regiments for which
they have volunteered. They are frOm different parts of
the country, all standing over five feet five. They are
chiefly for cavalry service, Hussars and Lancers.
The recruiting for the 35th Regiment of Foot, now
stationed in the Tower, has already made considerable
progre,s. General Berkeley and Co.onel Frazer are in-
defatigable in their efforts, as its commanders, to place
this crack regiment in a perfect state of efficiency, and
in a few weeks it will be fit for any description of active

f

service.

Ipswich, and subseqiZntly for Beverley, in Yorkshire, applied
to be discharged under the Act.
Mr. Nichols opposed, on the Part of Messrs. S
Clough, bankers, at York ; and htr: Macnamara waSwann
and
appeared on
the part of Messrs. Hedges and Butler, „Italian
warehouseman,
Regent•street. Mr. Sargood supported the application.
The schedule filed by the insolvent contains 175 creditors'
and no debtors. The debts froth 1840 are 168,8031. 17s. Id.,
and of that sum 36,7491.155. are without consideration. Th
unsecured debts are about 28,000/. The insolvency is attrie-
bated to Mr. Fox, who is brother-in-law of the Duke of Leeds,
having granted annuities upon his life interest, under the •
will of the late Ditke of Leeds, at a rate greater than the ad-
vances OrtJutd-atiord-;- tolaavy interest and discount ; to the
expense
_of his ,establishment, and to heavy electioneering -
expenses. It appears that from 1840 to 1850 the income
'derived from the life interest under the will mentioned and
his marriage settlement was 14,84i01. a-year. The property
was now heavily charged, Among the items of expenditur4
is one of 7,000t.,.0n account of two contested elections rot
Beverley, besides which other expenses wore incurred in ,
elections for-Ipswich-and Beverley. •The interest on money
borrowed, and on the discount of bills of exchange, bad been
about 1,8001. a-year. Pa ,the description the establishment
in St. James-squaro was statl, and it was also set forth that
Mr. Fox had been member of 'Parliament for Ipswich and
Beverley. A creditor bad filed a petition, and the vesting
order was issued in June. Mi: Fox had been in the Queen's
Prison since March, 1853.
Some inquiry was made respecting the banker's books from
Messrs. Dixon of Chancery-lane, and it was stated that they
had been mislaid. '
The insolvent, on his examination by Mr. Nichols, stated -
that ho recollected having from Messrs. Swan 3501 It might,
have been in 1849, but he thought it was earlier, probably in
1847.
Mr. Nichols said he had an affidavit of Mr. (Sough, one of
the partners, showing that U was in 1849.
The Chief Commissioner said the document had better be
read, if it was not objected to by Mr. Sargood as inadmissible.
Mr. Sargood waived any objection he might take to its be-
ing read.
The affidavit of Mr. Clough stated that they were creditors
to 1,5001., and that 364/. was now due. In Jan., 1849, the
insolvent asked them for 3501., as he had to pay into the Bank
of England to the credit of one Moss Davies, and he could not
draw on his bankers, Messrs. Dixon, as he never did without
giving them ten days' notice. Tho amount was forwarded,
and was nowdue to,Messrs• Swan. Mr. Clough expressed his
knew belief that the insolvent he had no effects, and that the
draft would not be honoured.
The insolvent furtherstated, on his examination, that he had
had frequent transactions with Messrs. Swann, Mr. Moss Da-
vies lived in Surrey-street, and was what was called a " money
lender." He owed the money for advances. He drew on his
bankers some time at sight, and some time at three and six
months. He supposed ties sum was not pai 1 because he was
disappointed in the receipt of money. When he was disap-
pointed, other people were disappointed. He could not 141'
whether he had any full& in his banker's hands when heeb..
tamed the 3501. of Messrs. Swami. On the 3d of February the
cheque he gave was presented, and there was nothing to meet
it. He had anticipated funds as the time. The account with
Messrs. Dixon, his bankers, was not closed, as he owed them
7,0001. In 1847, his affairs were complicated, and in 1848
he broke up his-establishment, and endeavoured to retrench.
The money he had from Maiars. Swami to pay Moss Davies
was not owing on a gambling transaction—not on a " play"
debt. •
The Chief Commissioner obserVed' that Moss Davies was.
still a creditor on,the schedule.
Mr. Nichols submitted that the debt of 3501. with Messrs.
Swann had been unfairly-contracted, and that Mr. Fos knew
at the time that there would be no effects to meet his cheque.
It was incumbent on the gentleman before before the Court
the to
show that he was justified in giving the cheque, and in
absence of such evidence it was an unfair and improper
transaction, as no poition of the money so obtained had been
repaid. He would call a witness to show the character of
the debt.
A clerk to Messrs. Ridsdale and Craddock, the agents to
the attorneys for Messrs. Swann, was called. He produced
the judgment paper in the action against the insolvent. The
judgment was for 1,5801., and 71. 17s. taxed costs.
Mr. Sargood, in reply to the complaint of his learned friend,
contended that there was no evidence to warrant the remarks
made. It was a simple debt transaction, and Mr. Fox had
disclosed his circumstances when he asked for the advance ;
that was no misstatement. Besides, Messrs. Swann had ob-
tained a judgment for 1,5001. and upwards, and were noW
creditors for only 3601. , . .
The Chief Commissoner said it was clear that the sum now
due was part of a larger amount, and all that was due with
costs and interest was 3601., so that it was by no means
certain that no portion of the advance complained of had
been paid. There must have been efforts made to pay off
the debt; as•only 3601. was due of 1,5871. He. could not say
that the deed was one of the character described by Mr.
Nichols.
Mr. Macnamara proceeded with his opposition.
The insolvent stated that he dealt, from he believed before
1843 to 1848, with Messrs. Hedges and Butler. They were
wine-merchants and Italian warehousmen, in Regent-street.
The debt was 6891., and was a balance of account. He must
have paid them 2001: •or 300/. a year from 1838, but
not, he believed, from 1843, when the present debt probably
commenced.
The insolvent further stated, on his examination, that the
debt he now owed /ledges and Butler was for goods in their
trade. 'ln June, 1847, he gave them a bill of exchange fir
5311., at six months. He was a member of Parliament from
1843 to 1848, He bad been embarrassed in his affairs for some
years. He had to raise money, but did not find himself in dif-
ficulties before 1847. He broke up his establishment in 1848,
but he anticipated money, and still anticipated funds, but his
I creditors would not give him time, but shut him up in prison.
His income was the produce of land, &c. He had a life in-
terest, under the will of the late Duke of Leeds. 'He did not
live within his income The fact was, he lived beyond it, and
got into debt. That was the source of all his difficulties. He
did not know that it'would take 90,0.00/. to pay off all the
ineumbrances on the property. There were certain monies
which he had raised at 10 and 15 per cent. The las sum he
obtained was at 10 per cent., and had it not been fort circum-
stances, he would have been able to pay it. His income was
about 15,000/. a year, which, after deductions, left about
9,347/. .
The report famished by Messrs. Lewis and Lewis to the
'creditors was then read.
In December last there was a meeting of creditors, and a
committee was appointed, who made a report, Mr. Dixon,
the banker, being chairman. The-re was to be an assignment -
made by Mr. Fox, of, all his property, if the judgment eredi-
-tors would raleaso his persOn; but as that was not done, the
matter went off, and Mr. Fox was obliged to come to this
tour/. Some 60 creditors attended, and about 40 sent
letters. -,
The repOrt of the committee was read by the registrar of
the Court. It set forth that Mr.' Fox, under the will of the
late Duke of Leeds, -is tenant for life of large estates, in- •
eluding a house in St. James's-squate, and under his mar-
riage settleinent he has a life estate in certain funded pro-
perty, producing together the following income, viz. :

Last evening a. meeting of the shareholders.and friends
of-the Metropolitan, and General Freehold Land
was held at the-London Tavern, Bishopsgateltreet, Societe
purpose of balloting, for the distribution .of rights to
advances in this flourishing society. -
Shortly after eight o'clock the chair was taken by George
J. Philps, Esq. • 1
By joining this society, a mechanic or labourer, or other
Ws' of limited mean:,-can, by a small weekly or monthly
contribution, become the proprietor in his own right of a
piece of freehold land, upon which a dwelling-house may
be erected, either to let or occupy. To effect this object
land is purchased in' large quantities by the acre, and
divided into plots of an annual value of not less than forty
shillings, and allotted to the shareholders at the wholesale
or cost price. A saving is thus effected of from thirty to
sixty pounds on each plot. In purchasing land great care
'
is taken to obtain as far as possible, such as will be
immediately available for building upon. The estate
already purchased are situated at Barnes, Wimbledon,
and Reading. The cost of the conveyance to the members
is thirty shillings each, exclusive of stamps, and is added
to the price of the allotments, and will be paid for by the
allottees iii their regular subscriptions. The allottees give
mortgages on the allotments to the trustees of the society
for the amount of the advances made to them. The society
advances the difference between the price of the allotments
and the contributions already paid in by the allottees, the
members paying 5 per cent interest, calculated at the end
of each year, on the balance due to the society. . Members
whose rights have accrued, not wishing to choose land,
may enter their rights for sale at the price at which they are
willing to accept, in the register kept at the office, and by
inspecting such register, any member wishing to btain an
allotment, may ascertain the price at which the right can
be obtained. Memberk may at any time redeem their
mortgages, by paying off the advances made to them, and
a release will then be given to them by the trustees, and
their shares will be extinguished. If the allottee should
hold other shares in' the society than the share or shares
on which the allotment was made, then such shares only as
he has paid up, by redeeming the, mortgage, will be
extinguished, and he will continue a member of the so-
ciety for his remaining shares. Interest at the rate of
5/. Bs. 4d. is allowed on all shares until they are
allotted. A deposit account has also been opened, and
members and others may deposit small or large sums at five
per cent. interest, and the money so deposited with the
society, with the interest due thereon, may be withdrawn
upon giving seven days' notice, if under 50/ , and above
that sum and under :300L, fourteen days' notice. Persons
are at liberty to join at any time without paying back
subscriptions : they may also at any time either increase
or reduce the number of shares--nnd, in case of necessity,
the committee have the power to suspend their payments
without fines, or members may at any time withdraw the
whole of their subscriptions upon giving twenty-eight days'
notice of his intention to do so.
The CHAIRMAN said it gave him great pleasure in again
meeting the shareholders. They were aotomnabled for
,the
pure, of balloting for the fourteenth time for 40 rights
to advances—as usual, 20 of these rights would be
taken from the rotation list, and 20 from the ballot
division, making, as he had before said, 40 rights.
The attendance that evening, if anything. was wanting to
prove the fact, attested the great reliance that was placed
in the directors by the shareholders. As far as the pur-
chase of land was concerned, it was not the intention of the
committee, in the present state of affairs, to be too eager,
but they thought it would be the wisest and most judi-
cious course to wait until some of the excitement prevail-
ing abroad had passed away. Without wishing in the
slightest degree to reflect upon other societies, or with re-
spect to the purchases that they had made—he hoped they
would be able to dispose of the land iu the way that they
expected, namely, for the benefit of their shareholders.
The estate of this society situate at 'Wimbledon, he was
happy to inform them, stood in the highest opinion of the
shareholders,' and he had -great pleasure in telling them
that contracts had been entered into to erect, at the top of
the hill on this beautiful estate, 10 semi-detached villas, of
the value of 2,01J01. each. The contract had not merely
been entered into, but it had been signed and completed.
On the Barnes estate, nine pairs of villas were about to
be erected of the value of between 800. to 9001. each. With
regard to the Reading estate, the preliminary survey had
been completOd, and the surveyors were engaged in mark-
ing out the plan, and in a few weeks it would be placed in
their hands. The committee had had at their last meeting
a long 'debate, and lie believed the result of that debate
would be that the allotments would come out at such a
price as would please everybody. As he 'had said before,
this was not-a time to purchase land, and the directors of
the Metropolitan and General Freehold Land Societyd
did
not intend to lay their money out at present, anhe I
thought the shareholders would think that they were act-
ing prudently and for th' best interests of the society. Yet
it was not the intention of the directors to remain idle and
inactive, in proof of which ho would mention that a gentle-
man, afew days ago, had offered them an estate within a few-
minutes' walk of the Norwood station (so we understood).
The directors went and returned, but they found that one-
half the land was under water, so, as this was a society
for the purchase of land and not water, and as the water
had so increased the price of the land, the directors
determined to have nothing to do with it. The share-
holders, he felt sure, would still continue to have the ut-
most confidence in the exertions of the committee, and on
the part of the committee ho assured them that it was not
the intention of the directors to let any really eligible
estate slip through their fingers. He begged to thank
them for the attention they had given him. Before re-
suming his seat, he would call upon Mr. W. Cocks, one of
finance committee, to address a few observations to them.
Mr. W. COOKS, in addressing the meeting, alluded to
the great excitement caused every morning by the news
from the Baltic and the Black Seas, and also alluded to
the extreme caution required by those wbo were the
trustees of others. The members of freehold land societies
he said, should go forth as missionaries among their friends
and indoctrinate them with the advantages to be received,
and do all their power to increase the number of sharehold-
ers in the society in which they were interested, by so
doing, they would increase the importance of the society,
and the larger it became, the better it would be for all

Three suggestions were made, but they came .to nothing,
and Mr. Fox applied to the Court. One of the suggestions
was (approved of by the creditors) that Mr. Fox, with the
co-operation of Mr. Sackville George Fox, his eldest, son, and
the next tenant of life under the Duke's will, would raise on
their successive life interests a sum of 10,0001., by means of
which a composition Of6s.Bd• in the pound would be paid to
the unsecured creditors in - satisfaction of their claims. A
ect had been made to Mr. Sack-
communication on the subi
ville George Fox, but no positive reply at the date of the
report had been made.
Mr. Lewis informed the Court Mit yesterday a communica-
tion had been'received that Mr. Sackville George Fox would
agree to the suggestion,' and the creditors would probably be
paid the composition.
Mr. Macnamara asked that the case might be adjourned, in
order that the proposition mentioned-should be carried out.
The Chief Commissioner said that at all events they would
go on with the opposition.
Mr. Maeaamara addressed the court. He appeared for two
respectable tradesmen, who were creditors for goods supplied
to 6391. The insolvent possessed a very large income—ample

ment to protect him from arrest, to incur the debts with

The •
insolvent, interrupting, said, " I beg your pardon." •
Mr. Macnamara 'geld three could,be no doubt he was pro-
tected from arreet. Heconteuded that the insolvent had
been guilty of great extftva:golioe, and was not entitled to pass
without a judgment for contracting a debt without a reason-
able or probable expectation of payment. In addition, h&
would submit to the court that the case was one for its dircre,
tion, in order to cheek the expenditure of persons in his posi-
tion, and to protect tradesmen from losing their money, in
this case to a considerable extent.
Mr. Sargood replied.
The Chief Commissioner gave judgment.—On cases of the
description now before the court, one might comment on its
circumstances for the whole day. It was, no doubt, a very
painful subject to see a comfortable property wrecked by ex-
travagance. The only matter ho had to deal with was to say
whether after au imprisonment of already 14 months, the ad.;
judieation was to be a discharge or a judgment. The codiscreurt,-
as the petition was about twelve months old, had no
tion as they would have had in a-fresh case. Only two credi-
uld
tors bad opposed—one had been disposed of. It would bell
monstrous to visit the insolvent with a judgment under suchwas
circumstances: As to the- second oppositi, the

There were large debts, in the schedule, but it seemed to him

pronounce a discharge.
