ner to every individual in society. Its contents are variety, abun-
dance.kuperlor quality, and unparalleled cheapness ; reductions in
prices, and improvements in the style and comfort of Spring and
Summer Attire ; and all the requisities end elegancies of Dress de-
sired by all classes are brought out with brilliancy, beauty, perfec-
tion, and cheapness. To say our "Budget" contains some excellent
Styles and some remarkable features is purely unnecessary ; it con-
tains every novel invention which practical experience and the polite
customs of society will approve, and every feature which a mighty
progress in skill and commerce can produce. We, therefore, the
proprietors of the largest Clothing Business in the world, invite
attention to New Styles of Dress in countless succession, for gentle-
men and their sons, for mechanics, and all others who are making a
change in their wardrobe suitable for the present season, and only

and comfortable, as well as the cheapest which can be obtained.

tory, British and Foreign, and are as much celebrated for their stye,
quality, and superior finish, as they are for being the cheapest Goods
in the world.

ON TRUE &ew FALSE SPERMATORRHCEA,
with the Vi to the Correction of wide-spread Errors
in relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from Debility of the
Generative System, or Sexual Hypochondriasis.
Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD
"Dr. Plckford 's known to English readers by his frequent practi-
al contributions to German medical literature. This is the first
ime,•he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medi-
ml reader. We trust this may not be the last, If he shall
letect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his
sower to correct."—London Medical Gazette, May 30, 1851.
"We promised in a former number that we should recur to this
worn, 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 ramy hmdreds would
oe saved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is of
less importance, though it is that which thrs quacks most prize—
much money... ...This volume is well qualified to put an end to the
senpirical system of treating Spermatorrhcea, and to place the trey
-limit upon a more rational and physiological basis. It is, therefore,
.b.‘ily to do much good."—Medical Circular, June 16, 1852.

THE CURE OF STRICTURE OF THE URETHRA, on Princi-
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 proof of his views ho (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., xil., and xviii. No. ix. had res sted, for a
p Tied of twelve yen's, the treatment by (inflation, and was finally
re neved in as many weeks. But cases xviii. and xix. 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 successfhl."
