Translated from the German of Dr. PICRFORD
'.'Dr. Pickford 1s known to English readers by his frequent practi-
cal contributions to German medical literature. This is the first
time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medi-
cal reader. We trust this may not be the last, if he shall
detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his
pQwer to correct."—London Medical Gazette, May 30, 1851,
"We uromised in a former number that we should recur to this
w3rlc, in order to exhibit its aim more clearly. The author lashes
with great severity the impostors who make a livelihood by preying
on the credulity of the public. The tribe of ' Quiet SyrnathisenV
and ' Medical Friends,' are mercilessly exposed ; and if this book
could find its way into the hands of those who saffer from th
com-
plaint of which it treats, we are satisfied that many h indreds would
be caved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is of
less importance, though it is that which ths quacks most prize—
much money.... —This volume is well qualified to put an end to the
rmptrica system of treating Spermatorrhma, and to place the treat-
..inut upon a more rational and physiological basis. It is, therefore,
tioly to do much good."—Medical Circular, June 16, 1852.

THE CURE OF STRICTURE OF TIIE URETHRA, on Prim!.
pies at once Simple, Safe, and Efficient, in even its most Inveterate
and apparently Intractable Forms.
BY F. B. COURTENAY,
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England.
.‘ In proot of his views he (Mr. Conrtenay) has given
the history of a great many cases successfully treated, as bad
as in 'which Mr. Syme adduced, and on which he bad operated.
e cases ix., xi., xii., and xviii. No. ix. had res,sted, for a
perl... twelve years, the treatment by dilitation, and was finally
rernord in as many weeks. But cases xviii. and xix. appear, both
in ditration; severity, and complication of symptoms, of a more ag-
grailtated character than any detailed by Mr. Syme, and yet the
treatment adopted by Mr. Courtenay proved eminently fruteggefum,
