JOSEPH I.IINN, Secretary,

In a few days will be published, in 2,400 imperial octavo pages,
price to Subscribers 30s. Non-Subscribers 365., the
POST-OFFICE LONDON DIRECTORY for
1854. The work is printed in entirely new type from the
Caslon and Glasgow Letter Foundry, and has been so greatly ex-
tended. that the "Street Directory" contains 130,842 distinct names
or firms ; these will be found correctly classified in all the other
principal divisions, Commercial, Trades, Law, and Court, all of which
are increased in proportion to the great extension of the " Street
directory."
Battersea, Bow, Brixton, Bromley (Middlesex), Camberwell,
Cambridge Heath, Clapham-road, Dalston, Deptford, Hackney, Hol-
loway-road, Kentish-town, Kin stand, New-cross, South Lambeth,
Stratford, Wandsworth-road, &c., ire., are essentially parts of " the
treat metropolis,"and should obviously be so treated In any Directory
of London. In the " Post-effice Directory'' the inhabitants of these
places appear in ail the alphab :teal lists, so that the residence and
calling of any one can be instarit y traced in whatever part of the
Suburbs he may be located.
" The energy of the editors of this huge undertaking has literally
no limit. London, vast as it is, cannot elude their comprehensive
grasp ; and let it widen as it may, let its population augment in
whatever ratio, let its public pursuits multiply to whatever extent,
these pioneers take cognisance of every fresh detail, and dispose of
it with a diligence which knows neither rest nor error. The Post
Office Directory has long been the wonder of the publishing world, a
llaonument of private enterprise and ingenious labour wholly with-
out parallel. How it is possible to accumulate the entire details of
the emporium of the world, and with such unvarying accuracy, is
one of those problems which only those who have been for years
engaged in constructing the machinery, and in laying down prin-
ciples of co-operation, can answer. The Post Office Directory, in
Short, is a book per as: "—Morning Herald, Nov. 4, 1853.
"The recentness of the compilation in its several departments I
really astonishing. The indices are very numerous, and immenselyg
facilitate reference to the various sub-divisions of else book. There
is a Street Index, a Trades Index, a Law Index, a Postal Index, a
Parliamentary Index, besides the General Index at the beginning."
--Morning Advertiser, November 4, 1853.
"The work deserves much praise ter the accuracy which pervades
it, and for the lateness of the in.ormation which it affords. We de
not pretend to have examined the book thirouE,rhly—life Is too short
to admit of such an undertaking ; but on glancing over the official
portion of the work we cmild not help being struck with the appear-
ance of the names and addresses of the Charity Trust Commissioners
(p. 45), who were appointed so recently as the 25th of last month.
Those acquainted with the details of printing will be able to form
some idea of the labour involved in bringing out such a work."—
Morning Chronicle, Novemer 4, 1853.
"Altogether this is by far the completest Directory yet produced,
'both as regards cls,,sification and typographical execution."—" Illus-
trated News," November 5, 1853.
" The difference between this and former editions of the Directory
does not consist in mere enlargements ; various important additions
have been made. If It be true, as all oar readers will be ready to
admit, that there is no country like England, and no place like Lon-
don, it is a most consistent climax to add, and no guide book like
the Post Office Directory.-"--... John Bull," November 5, 1853.
" It is undoubtedly one of the most remarkable and useful works
of the age, and the manner in which the Messrs Kelly execute the
task is deserving of the highest praise."—" Herapath's Journal,
November b, 1853.
"while this monster volume is a perfect desideratum for the office
and the counting-house, it is an extraordinary specimen of the com
bined arts of printing and bookmaking."—Mining Journal, Novem-
ber 5, 1853.

introduction of a large number of streets in the suburbs."--Weekly

MEDICAL ADVICE ON THE SECRET INFIRMITIES OF
YOUTH AND MATURITY.

DR. SAMUEL LA'MERT, 37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON,
Doctor of Medicine, and Matriculated Member of the University of
Edinburgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical
Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c.
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-
bleed more misery M 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 exist-
once 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 arc
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,equer.o, es may be avoided, and above all,
that there 1, scarcely any degree of iyysical infirmity or functional
derangement to which the timely. e:d of science cannot apply a cure
DOCTOIt 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 e only legally qualified Physician who, regardless
of the taunts and envy of the hypocritical and mock-modest, has had
the confidence, through the medium of the public press, to direct
attention to these enormous evils, from which no grade of society is
tree. In selecting thi4 department of practice, he has been amply
rewarded by the great success that has attended his efforts in the
treatment of these cases, which are too generally confided to the
care of unqualified and ignorant empirics, who, with their pirated
publications, assumed foreign names and titles, and pretended virtues
of their patent nostrums, have inflicted serious injury on those who
have been induced to place faith in their pretensions.
At home for consultation daily from Eleven till Two, and from
Six till Eight. All letters must contain the fee of 1/., and advice and
medicines can be forwarded to any initials or address.

hould first obtain a copy of his work on

to several hundred thousan.o dollars.._

-Distressing accounts of the ravages of yellow
fever are received from Bermuda to the 12th ult.
The disease had assumed the character of a plague,
and seemed to baffle the skill of the medical
profession.

Brevet Brigadier-General Childs, of the regular
army, had died at Tampa Bay of yellow fever.
Another steam-boat explosion had taken place.
The name of the vessel is .IVPDaniel. Four per-
sons were killed and several wounded.

The New York Herald publishes a tabular
statement-of the number of deaths which had taken
place on board the emigrant ships arriving at that
port subsequent to the 9th September. Of 7,701
passengers, 359 had died, and there is no doubt
the cause of death was cholera. The ship Sagada-
•bock, which arrived at Boston on the 21st October,
reports that 70 of her passengers had died of that
disease.

Steps were being taken by a party designating
themselves the " Irish Confederates of '4B "to give
John Mitchell an " appropriate " welcome upon
his arrival at New York.

A very extensive fire was raging at Louisville
when our despatches left. There had been then
consumed the greater portion of a whole street, in-
cluding the Journal newspaper office, a rolling
mills warehouse, a large tobacco warehouse, and
an extensive drug establishment, together with the
whole of their contents.

A collison upon the railroad at Coatsville has
killed two men connected with trains, and wounded
a third rather seriously. The passengers fortu-
nately escaped unhurt.
A Jerusalem plough, and other articles from the
Holy Land, had arrived at Boston, for the Crystal
Palace.

Jullien's farewell concert at New York took place
on the evening of the 21st of October. This con-
cert, although his forty-ninth consecutive one, was
crowded to overflowing.
The cattle show of the American Institute has
closed.

The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company have
decided to increase the rate of toll on coal, com-
mencing from the Ist of November, to $2 25c. per
ton. The previous rate was $1 75c.
At Washington, Mr. Bronson had been dismissed
by the President from the collectorship of the port.
Other changes were also taking place.
The panic in the Stock Market had not abated at
New York, and a further decline in prices had been
submitted. Breadstuffs declined, although latest
accounts reported a steadiness in flour. Freights
remained firm. In provisions, pork continued to
depreciate. The wool market was more depressed,
and holders would have accepted lower rates, pro-
vided they could have effected sales thereby. In
cotton little was doing, at irregular rates.
Foreign exchange was dull, and bankers' best
bills were offered at 1091, but were not in demand.

ARRIVAL OF THE CANADA.
LIVERPOOL, SUNDAY, 6 30 P.M.
By the Royal Mail steamer Canada we have ad-
vices from New York to the 25th, and Boston to
the 26th ult.
She has 275,110 dollars in specie on freight.
The Canada passed a large steamer, supposed to
be the America, hence for Boston, on the 3d inst.,
in lat. 25, long. 50.
The news from Washington is unimportant.
Telegraphic accounts from Norfolk state that
the steamer Northern Light had put in there on
the 25th ult., with Californian advices of the Ist
of October, and 1,500,000 dollars in golddust on
freight.
The general news presented no feature of in-
terest.
The San. Francisco markets were dull, and prices
were favourable to buyers.
In consequence of derangement in the wires of
the telegraph, the further details of the news from
California had not been received.
The Crescent City steamer had arrived at New
Orleans, with Havannah accounts to the 19th ult.
The arrival of the new Captain-General was daily
looked for with considerable interest.
Shipping at Havannah continued scarce, and
freights were high.
Mr. W. H. Webb, the ship-builder of New York,
had been awarded a contract by the Emperor
Nicholas to build a line-of-battle ship for the Rus-
sian navy, of 100 guns, and double engines of
500-horse power, to be propelled by the screw.
The packet ship Western World, from Liverpool,
with 600 passengers on board, had been wrecked
on Square Beach, near New York. Passengers
and crew saved.
The cholera had been very prevalent on board
the ships arriving at New York from England and
the continent. The number of deaths on 22,
packet ships that had arrived there was 359, prin-
cipally from cholera.
The ship Sagadahock, arrived at Boston from
Gottenburg, lost 70 passengers on the passage.
The Benjamin Adams and New York, from
Liverpool, had had 16 deaths on board each, and
the Marmion 34 deaths—all from,cholera.
A large amount of business had been transacted
in the New York stock market. Prices were rather

vised per Arabia still continued to pervade the
cotton market. The sales from the 18th to the
24th were estimated at 66,000 bales, at a reduction
varying from Ato 1 cent per lb. Holders of flour
were willing sellers, and a decline of 61c. per barrel
on common brands took place, and lower prices
would have been taken to make sales. Small sales
of Indian corn were made for good Western mixed
and Southern white. Provisions in good demand,
at firm prices for beef and pork.
Freights to London.—Flour, 4s. 9d. per barrel ;

SANITARY PROCEEDING UNDER THE FACTORY ACT.—
Mr. R. Baker, sub-inspector of factories in the West
Riding of Yorkshire, preferred informations before the
magistrates at the petty sessions at Utley, near Leeds,
on Friday, against Messrs. Baldwin, Brown, and Co.,
of Yeadon, for not having whitewashed their two mills
within the time prescribed by law. It appeared that in
the middle of September, Mr. Baker had visited these
mills and found the whitewashing omitted, and that he
then directed it to be done ; but on a subsequent visit
paid to the same premises a month afterwards, he dis-
covered that though the walls had been whitewashed-the
ceiling had not. The magistrates decided it was a bad
case, and inflicted two full penalties of 101. and costs.
E-OPENING OF GRACECHURCH-STREET.—The repairs
of this street with wooden blocks, having been completed
in a very short space of time, the thoroughfare has been
re-opened for traffic, to the great convenience of one of
the most important lines of road in the metropolis.

ARRIVAL OF THE BRASILEIRA.
LIVERPOOL, SATURDAY.
The screw steamer Brasileira, D. Green com-
mander, the pioneer of the South American Gene-
ral Steam Navigation Company's line of steamships
between Liverpool and the Brazils, arrived in the
Mersey shortly after 11 o'clock this morning. The
Brasileira has made the entire voyage out and
home in 73 days, and brings dates as follows :
Buenos Ayres, September 30th, Monte Video, Oct.
Ist, Rio de Janeiro 10th, Bahia 14th, Pernambuco
16th, St. Vincent 23, and Lisbon Nov. Ist..
The Brasileira left Rio Janeiro with 100 pas-
sengers on board, part of whom landed at Bahia,
Pernambuco, and Lisbon. Her cargo consists of
coffee, wool, hair, and a small quantity of specie
and diamonds.
The Brasileira left Liverpool on the 24th of Au-
gust, and encountered a heavy gale in the Channel,
but arrived at Lisbon under five days. She called
at St. Vincent on the 6th of September, but, the
weather not admitting of her coaling quickly, she
went on to Pernambuco, and reached there on the
night of the 12th, making the passage in 19 days 12
hours from Liverpool, including stoppages. She
coaled at Bahia, and reached Rio on the 19th, un-
der 26 days from Liverpool. After a detention of
three days in Rio, discharging cargo, &c., she
sailed for Monte Video on te 22d, and reached
there on the morning of the 27th, landing her
goods on the 35th day, and at Buenos Ayres on
the 36th day, from Liverpool—a thing unprece-
dented in the commercial annals of that country.
The Brasileira left Monte y ideo bn her return on
the Ist of October, and artived.at Rio Janeiro on,
the nth,' hiving experienced contrary winds and
much head sea. She remained at Rio till the 10th,
and has, therefore, made her return voyage in the
same time as the outward one (26 days), having
had to steam the entire distance with very little
assistance from her canvass—a result that gives
another signal triumph to the screw. Out of the
73 days consumed on the voyage, she was 17 days
in port, making 56 days for nearly 14,000 miles of
distance, or an average of fully 240 miles a-day.
The Lusitania, another of the company's steamers,
also built by Mr. Laird, underwent a trial trip on
Friday between Liverpool and the North-West
Light-ship, and attained an average speed of 12i
knots per hour at the measured distance between
the North-West Ship and Bell Buoy. This rate of
steaming gives every hope of the Lusitania even ex-
celling the Brasileira's performance.
On arriving at Lisbon on the homeward passage,
the Brasileira was placed in quarantine, where she
remained for 24 hours, coaling, &d.
Mr. Hadfield, the secretary of the company,
went out in the steamer Argentina, and has re-
turned in the Brasileira. From him every facility
has been received, as also from Captain Green
and the purser.
The Brasileira passed the company's steamers
Olinda, within a few hours' sail of Pernambuco, and
the Lady Eglinton (steamer of the 24th of October)
to the northward of Lisbon.
The Royal mail steamer Severn arrived at Rio
Janeiro, from Southampton, on the Bth of October.
The following vessels had called at the Cape
Verds prior to the 23d of October :—The Royal
West India, Mail Company's steamer Camilla, from
England, on the 16th of October, and sailed again
on the 19th, for the Brazils ; the General Screw
Company's steamer Harbincrer, from England, ar-
rived on the 19th, and sailed again on the 20th ;
the Hamburg steamer Emilie, on the 21st, from
Liverpool, and sailed again on the 22d ; the brig
Atalanta, from Swansea, with patent fuel ; the Wil-
liam Pitt and Penelope, from Cardiff, with coals ;
the United States' brig-of-war Perry, of the African
squadron ; and the trader Samuel Rogers.
The following is a list of the British and foreign
vessels of war at the different ports of call :—At
Buenos Ayres, the Brazilian steamer Thetis, and
brigs Birmz and Eoleo. At Monte Video, English
steamers Vixen and Locust ; the French war ves-
sels Chasseur, Galatea, and Andromede ; the
Spanish steamer Luiz Fernando ; and Brazilian
steamer Amazonas, and corvettes Emma Francesco
and Imperial Marinheiro. At Rio Janeiro, the
Crescent, Bonita, and Centaur. At Bahia, the
Star, English. At Cape Verds, the United States'
brig Perry.
The Brasileira brings accounts of the steamer
Argentina, belonging to the same company, having
made a most successful debut in the river Plate.
She arrived at Monte Video on the 11th of Septem-
ber, and it appears that from the 14th, when she
made her first trip to Buenos Ayres, up to the Ist
of October, when she brought down the mails and
passengers for the Brasileira, she had - steamed
2,000 miles of distance, including a trip of some
300 miles up the river Parana.

In Buenos Ayres all remained quiet, and business
in imports was brisk.
The advices from Monte Video are to the Ist of
October. Great excitement had existed there for
several days, and a change of Government had
finally taken place, owing in a great measure to
the refusal of the President Giro to comply with
the reiterated supplications of the moderate party
that he would remove certain military commanders
of the interior towns, who had conducted them-
selves obnoxiously to the more enlightened
part of the people by their conduct during the late
war. After several days of suspense, the President
took refuge in the French Consulate, giving out
that he did so for self-protection, and he has since
considered it advisable to embark on board the
French frigate Andromede, accompanied by his
friend and Minister, Don B. Barro. A provisional
Government had been formed, composed of Ge
nerals Rivera, Lavallejo, and Flores, the last
named marching into the interior with a strong
body of troops, in order to suppress any at-
tempt against the authority' of the new Govern-
ment. From the despatches received, however, the
majority of the departments had declared in favour
of the change. The Ministers named by the Pro-
visional Government were :--iDon Juan C. Gomez,
Foreign Affairs • Colonel D. Lorenzo Battle, War
and Marine ; and Don Santiago Sayago, Finance.
Trade had been much depressed by the above dis-
turbances, but it was hoped it would soon improve
again. There was a large naval force at Monte Video,
chiefly French and Brazilian. _ _

There was no news of importance from either
Bahia or Pernambuco. The yellow fever had en-
tirely disappeared at both places. At Pernambuco
the necessary capital had, been subscribed for the
formation of a company to run steam-boats from
that port to Ceara, and intermediate ports to the
northward, and to Maceio to the south.
From Lisbon there is no particular news. The
Queen's accouchement was hourly expected. Her
Majesty's steam-frigate Odin was the only English
vessel of war at Lisbon. ,
