The essential object 01 this treatise is to point out the fearful con-
sequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses,
o'hich have proaucei 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. Ito perusal 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 absolutely necessary thatall 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, bow 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 rhysical 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 have
unfortanately teen too generally confided to the care of ignorant
tinPiries, who inflict great injury on those who are induced to place
faith in their pretensions.

The following report was unanimously passed at a General Com
mittee Meeting, on the 3d of October. 1854.
The Right Hon. the Earl of EFFINGit AM in the chair:—
This Association sriginated at the National Club, on the 24th a
February, 1854, and was joined en the 25th or February by a deptb
cation from the Army and Navy Club.
It was formally instituted at a public meeting held in Willis's
Rooms, en the 7th of March, 1854 tthe into deeply lamented Gene-
ral Sir Peregrine Maitland, G.C.8., in the chair), and has now com-
pleted the first half year of its operations.
The vast amount of undeserved. misery that this Association has
been the means of alleviating during the past six months induces the
Committee to make a half•yearly report of their proceedings; and
this, not only to show that the noble effort made by the country on
behalf of the si►ent sufferers has not been a fruitless one ; but also to
direct public attention to the urgent and absoiute necessity for the
establishment of some permanent national provision for the wives
and families, widows and orphans, of our soldiers.
Notwithstanding all that has been said and written on the subject,
the fact still remelts in all its sadness, that for the wife and family,
widow and orphan, of our best-behaved soldiers, whether non-com-
missioned officer or private, no provision whatever is made. Nothing
but private charity keeps them from pauperism when- their husbands
and fathers are taken away.
The marriage of these good men is fully permitted by military
authority; it is even granted as a reward fir good conduct, and yet,
should they be ordered to the seat of war, or die in the service of
their country, their families are cast aside in utter destitution and
desolation.
To prove that this is no over-statement, the Committee have se-
lected a few cases out of hundreds, all or which are those of wives
of non-commissioned officers and privates, who, having been mar-
ried With military sanction and approval, had been placed ou the
strength of the regiment.
Case 490, Mrs. B.—Wife of a sergeant of the 38th. Married with
leave. Left destitute with six children after she had sport the small
vim her husband left for her. Five of her children provided for ;
the sixth being an infant, and the mother teing weakly, she received
a weekly allowance of ss. until she obtained work as a washer-
woman, for which the Association furnished the means, and she now
earns her own livelihood, assisted by her two boys, aged 12 and 13,
for whom situations as pages have been found.
Mrs. li. F., Bth Hussars —A most respectable person, married with
leave, in delicate health. Left destitute, wills six children. Earns a
little by washing, for which a donation of 21. was granted. A. weekly
allowance of 7s.
Case 439, Mrs. W. 11. R.—Wife of a private, 13th Light Dragoons.
Married with leave. Left destitute with four children, A most re-
spectable person. A situation as cook obtained for her, -sand all her

Case 73, Mrs 8. J. G.—Wife of a sergeant in the 21st Regiment.

ing her confinement. A weekly allowance of Is., in addition to the

ing her confinement. A weekly allowance till she became a widow,

for by the Birmingham Local Committee.

Married with leave. Left destitute with four children. One child
provided for, and a weekly allowance of 7s. a week.
Case 384, Mrs. A. F.—Wife of a private in the 77th Regiment. Mar-
ried with leave. Left destitute with live children. A weekly allow-
ance of 10s.
Case 433,-38th Regiment—Mrs. A., the wife of a sergeant. Mar-
ried with leave. Left destitute with four children. Has been pro-
vided with a situation of 141. a year, and all her children taken care
of by the A ssoeiation.
Dirs. E. F., 63d Regiment.—Married with leave. 16 years wife of
a private. Left destitute with five children. A weekly allowance

of 7s.
Mrs. E. T., 46th Regiment.—Marriel with leave. Left destitute
with five children under 10 years of age, unable to leave her infant.
A weekly allowance of 7s.
Mrs. T. L., 28th Regiment.—Married with leave. Wife of a
Sergeant. Left:with five children. 'Her husband left her some little
money and his watch, to pert with in case of need. The watch bad
been parted with when this Association helped her. out of all her
troubles, and she regularly receives money from her husband.
Mrs. E. 8., case 321. —Wife of a private, With Regiment. Married
with leave. Left perfectly destitute with five children. The two
youngest twins born since her hu-baed left. In very bad health
since her confinement. A weekly allowance of 12s.

Case 592, Mrs. T.—Wife of a sergeant of the 11th Hussars. Mar-
ried with leave. Left with six children. Eldest daughter provided
with a situation, and a weekly al!owance of les. to her mother.
This dreary catalogue of destitution might be continued almost to
an endless extent, and all the harrowing details accompanying each
case might be given ; but the Committee are satisfied that a simple
statement of these facts is more than sufficient to prove the need for,
and the reality of, their work. It is true that the parish of the sol-
dier may be compelled to support his wife and family; but the Com
mittee would ask whether the workhouse is a fitting place for the
mantles of men vale can write such letters as the fol owing :
