In relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from Debility oftho

Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD

"Dr. Elckford is 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 noa-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
power to correct."--London Medical Gazette, May 30, 1851.
••We uronhlsed in a former number that we should recur to this
wofx, 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 suffer from th com-
plaint of which it treats, we are satisfied that many It 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, June 16, 1852.

THE CURE OF STRICTURE OF TILE URETHRA, on Princi-
ples at once Simple, Safe, and Efficient, in even its most Inveterate
apparently Intractable Forms.
BY F. B. COURTENAY,
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England.
_

Tn proof of his views he (Mr. Courtenay) has given
he history of a great many cases successfully treated, as bad
as any which Mr. Spate adduced, and on which he had operated.
Such are cases ht., ai., ill., and xviii. No. Ix. had resisted, for a
period of twelve years, the treatment by dilitation, and was finally
temoved in as many weeks. But cases avifi. 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 th 3
treatment adopted by Mr. Courtenay proved eminently successful."

MEDICAL ADVICE ON THE SECRET II4fFIRMITIES OF
YOUTH AND MATURITY.

T.R. ft /MEM& LA'MERT, 37, BEDFORD-SQUIRE, LONDON,
Doctor of Medicine, and 3fatricitlated Member of the University of
Edinburgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical
Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c.
y y.AY 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 stages of life, than perhaps any other class of dis-
t cas,

_yes known to modern pathologists. Long and practical experience
n the treatment of these diseases has proved that there are in exist-
ence 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 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
way be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed,
and bon the evil and its con-equences may be avoided, and above all,
that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional
derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.
DOCTOR 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 the only legally qualified Physician who, regardless
of the taunts and env, 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
free. In selecting this department of practice, he has been amply
ress arded 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 11., 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 en
