ANEW DISCOVERY IN TEETH.-
Mr. HOWARD, Surgeon-Dentist, 52, Fleet-street, has intro-
duced an entirely NEW DESCRIPTION of A RTIFICAL TEETH,
fixed without swings, wires, or liga ires. They so pei•Lctly resem-
ble the natural teeth as not to be disihnulshed from the ori7inal by
the closest observer; they will never change colour or decay, and will
be fourd very superior to any teeth ever before used. This method
does not require t e extraction o: roes, or any pain operation,
and will give support and preserve teeth that ate loose, and are
guaranteed to restore a^t'culation and max. icalon ; and that Mr.
Howard's improvement may be within reach of the most economic:",
he has fixed his charges at the lowest sca'e possib'e. Decayed teeth
rendered sound and useful in masticztioa.-52, Fleet-street. At

MEDICAL ADVICE ON THE SECRET INFIRMITIES OF

YOUTH AND MATURITY.

DR. SAMUEL LA'AtERT, 37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON,
Doctor of Medicine, and Matriculated Member of the University of
Edinburgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medicrl
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-
duced more misery in youth, degradation in manhood, and prema-
ture decay at all emcee of life, than perhaps ar'y 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
once secret causes of self-acqu,red 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 cowequenc es may be avoided, and above all,
that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional
derangement to which the timely ald of scien eacannot apply a cure.
DOCTOR LA'MEli'r has for a long series of years been engaged
in an extensive practice in the treatment of these delicate com-
plaints, and s the 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 till,' department of practice, he has bedn amply
rewarded by the great succeus 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 IL, and advice and
medicines can be forwarded to any initials or address.
It is desirable that patients wishing to consult Dr. LA'MERT
should first obtain a copy of his work on

SELF-PRESERVATION.
A Medical Treatise on the Philosophy of Marriage and Nervous and
Generative Debility, illustrated by fifty-coloured engravings, and des-
cribing in detail the various disorders resulting from secret habits and
excesses. The perusal of this treatise will assist in the correct
description of their cases, and may be had, price 2s 6d, in English,

CNN TRUE & FALSE SPERMATORRHCEA,
with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors
in relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from Debility of the
Generatlyo System, or Sexual Hypochondriasis.
Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD

"Dr. Pickford ls known to English readers by his frequent practi-
cal contributions to German medical literature. This is the first
tme, he informs as, that he has addressed himself to the noe-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
rower to correct."—London Medical Gazette, May 80, 1851.
"We Promised in a former number that we should recur to this
work, 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 Symathisers,'
and ' Medical Friends,' are mercilessly exposed ; and if this book
could find Its way into the hands of those who stiffer from th com-
plaint of which it treats, we aro satisfied that many h indreds would
be saved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is of
less Importance, though it is that which the quacks most prize—
much money ......This volume is well qualified to put an end to the
empirical system of treating Spermatorrhcea, and to place the treat-
ment upon a more rational and physiological basis. It is, therefore,
likely to do much good."—Medical Circular, Juno 16, 1852.

THE CURE OF STRICTURE OF THE URETHRA, on Prlnct•
ples 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. Courtenay) has given
the history of a great many cases successfully treated, as bad
as any which Mr. Syme adduced, and on which he had operated.
such are cases ix., xi., ail., and xvig. No. ix. had resisted, for a
period of twelve years, the treatment by dilltation, and was finally
removed in as many weeks. But cases Min. and xix. appear, both
In duration, severity, and complication of symptoms, of a more ag-
gravated character than any detailed by Mr. Syme, and yet the
treatment adopted by Mr. Courtenay proved eminently successfUl."
