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.
arc cases ix., xi-, xii., and xviii. No. ix. had res,sted, for a
im^iod of twelve years, the treatment by dilitation, and was finally
re nosed in as many weeks. But cases xviii. and six. appear, both
in duration, severity, and complication of symptoms, of a more ag-
gravated character than any detailed by Mr. SYrne, and yet the
treatment adopted by Mr. Courtenay proved eminently successful."

MEDICAI4 ADVICE ON THE SECRET INFIRMITIES OF
YOUTH AND MATURITY.

Edinburgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medic

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-
ndisilseordersd
cases known to modern pathologists. Long and practical experience
in 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 dntire 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 consequences 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 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
free. In selecting thii department of practice, he has been amply
rev, 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

should first obtain a copy of his work on

cribing in detail the various disorders resulting from secret habits and
