NEWS for EVERYBODY.—It seldom happems
that one particular kind of news applies to everybody, but the
following will : there are two classes of purchasers—the first, buy
goods for their own use ; and the second, for sale to others.
The former may procure the most elegant, artistic, serviceable,
and CHEAP CLOTHING, lipts, Caps, Hosiery, Boots, and Shoes,
&c., at 14. MOSES and SON'S.
The goods have all a peculiar adaptation to Vie season, particularly
for the approaching 12th of August. SPORTING D'eES4 offered by
E. MOSES and SON is cut on principles entirely new, and is made
by a distinct class of experienced workmen, hence its a..carate
fit
and unequalled superiority in every respect As usual. the charges
for sporting dress, to measure or ready made, are considerably lower
than at any other house.
The latter, Merchants, Captains, Shippers, and Emigrants may
avail themselves d• goods which have gained a world wide celebrity.
Selection may be made to any amount in the wholesale department
of E. wOsES ant sON'S universal Clothing Establishment ; the
superior quality and perfect suitability of the artic'es for home sale or
export, united with the very low prces charged render them the
most profitable investments which can be made.

tlemen way be had on application, or post free to any part of the
kingdom.
CAUTION.—E. MOSES and SON regret having to guard the
public against imposition, having learned that the untradesman-like
falsehood of " Being connected with her Establishment," or "
the same concern," has been resorted to in many instances, and for
obvious reasons, they beg to state that they have

ON TRUE & FALSE SPERMATORRHCEA,
with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors
In relation to the Treatment and Care of Sufferers from Debility of the
Generative System, or Sexual Hypochondrlasis.
Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD
"Dr. kicklord 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 non-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
sower to correct."—London Medical Gazette, May 30, 1151.
"We promised in a former number that we should recur to this
warlt, 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 the com-
plaint of which it treats, we are satisfied that many lundreds would
be saved much needless suffering of i,ody and mind, and what is of
less importance, thou.ch 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 npon a snore rational and physiological basis. It is, therefore,
likely 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. COTIRTENAY,
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England.
"Tn proof of his views be (Mr. Conrtenay) 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.
~ach are cases ix., xi., xil., and xvill. No. ix. had refs sted, for a
period of twelve years, the treatment by dilitation, and was finally
removed 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. Syme, and yet the
eatment adopted by Mr. Courtenay proved eminently successful."

DR. SAMUEL LA' NIERT, 37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON,
Doctor of Medicine, and Matric‘ilated Mem'ier of the University of •
Edinburgh, HOTlOrary Member of the London Hospital Medias
Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, Loudon, &c., &c.
AY be consulted, personally, or by letter, on
R. 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-
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-ac,cpuired miseries and disappointed hopes in
existence, traceable to certain pernicious habits, to which Nervous
Debility, various terms of Insanity, Unhappy and Unfruittlil 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 whtch cannot be violated without
incur firm 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-equenc es 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
attentionselecting this dertment 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 ot 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.

now residing at the house of Henry Witton Tyndall, in

presented herself to be, as appears by the depositions of
Richard Peyton, the younger, George Dawson, and H. W.
Tyndall.

" Sworn, &c.

" ARTHUR RYLAND."

The plaintiff, in total ignorance of what was taking
place, was at a party given by Mr. and Mrs. Tyndall,
on the evening of the 29th of August. He was seated at
the piano, playing some Hungarian music, when Mr.
Tyndall came to him, and stated a gentleman wished to
see him. When M. Moroda got out of the room he
was taken into custody by two policemen; put into a
car, and taken to the station. On asking what he was
charged with, he was told he was worse than a thief ; he
was an impostor. In the morning he was brought be-
fore the magistrates, but was discharged. Though what
occurred to the baroness had nothing to do with the
complaint of the present plaintiff, we may mention that
that lady was taken from her room (to which she had
retired, being ill) the same night at Mr. Tyndall's house,
conveyed to the prison in Moor-street, and was locked
up (as was Moroda) for the night. In the morning when
about to be called before the magistrates she died. ~On
the morning of the 30th, Mr. Toulmin Smith appeared
before the magistrates on behalf of Dawson, to explain
the reasons why the proceedings had been taken, but in
consequence of the death of the lady the matter was not
proceeded with, and the defendant was dismissed.
The case for the defence, supported by the evidence of
the four defendants and Mr. Hajnik, was, that there was
reasonable cause for the proceeding, the evidence tend-
ing to show that the party calling herself the "Baroness"
was in truth an adventurer, who had falsely called her-
self the " Baroness."

The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff. Damages
8001.

EXTRAORDINARY AFFAIR IN MARYLEBONE.

Yesterday Mr. Wakley held a lengthened inquest in
the Marylebone Workhouse, on Mary Anne Barnard,
aged 21, housemaid, late in service at 22, Gloucester-
road, Hyde-park, and her newly born female child.
Mr. Broughton, the magistrate, was in attendance to
watch the case.
John Simpson, private in the Coldstream Guards,
stated that he saw deceased on Tuesday evening week,
about ten o'clock, deliberately jump from the Park-road-
bridge, Regent's-park, into the canal. Witness gave
the alarm, but did not wait to see the body taken out,
as he was late for barracks.

John Chapman, 88 S, said that, having received in-
formation that a woman had thrown herself into the
canal, he hastened with other constables to the spot, and
seeing the bubbles created by deceased's struggles in the
water, they quickly succeeded in getting the body out
by means of a rope and hook. Perceiving symptoms of
life, they immediately sent off for medical assistance,
and in the meantime used brandy and friction, in the
hope of restoring life. Mr. Allen, surgeon, quickly ar-
rived, as also did Mr. Head, who having ineffectually
attempted artificial respiration, ordered deceased, who
was far advanced in pregnancy, to be conveyed to the
baths and washhouses, in the hope that a warm bath
might save life, and accordingly she was conveyed there
on a stretcher. But upon arriving at the gate they found
it closed, when Mr. Allen and a constable got over the
railings, and after much difficulty had the door opened,
and the deceased was carried in and put into a warm
bath, which failing in its object, she was taken out, and
the child was removed from her by an operation.
By the Coroner : Fully a quarter of an hour elapsed
before they were admitted into the bath-room. De-
ceased bad been in the canal about five minutes. _ _

Mr. Edward Head, surgeon, Park-road, St. John's-
wood, was called to deceased on the night in question,
and, assisted by Mr. Allen, ineffectually adopted every
possible restorative, whereupon they had the body con-
veyed to the baths and washhouses, thinking that a
warm bath might restore animation. As soon as they
were admitted to the baths deceased was put into a
warm bath and there kept until all hope of saving her
life was gone, when, as was their duty, they turned their
attention to the saving of the life of deceased's infant,
and for that purpose performed the Cxsarian operation,
with the assistance of Mr. Fuller. After being born it
showed symptoms of life, but soon afterwards expired.
By the Coroner : Had they had proper and timely as-
sistance at the baths and washhouses, he was strongly of
opinion that the child's life might have been saved. But
upon their arrival there they were refused admission,
and thereupon a very angry altercation ensued, when
Mr. Foote, the superintendent, struck Mr. Allen, who
resented the insult ; after which they were admitted.
While they were performing the Ctesarian operation,
cold water was allowed to flow to such an extent into
the bath that it overflowed. After the birth of the child
they required warm water to put it into, which was
tardily supplied by Mrs. Foote, who nearly poured the
scalding water upon witness's hands and the infant, and
upon being remonstrated with for such conduct, she said
it would be a good job if it scalded him, and also said it
would be well if the infant was dead. While they
were performing the Cmsarian operation, the superin-
tendent even went to Mr. Broughton, the magistrate,
L to get his advice, and upon his return informed them
▪ that Mr. Broughton said that they should have taken
ithe mother to the hospital. Witness never beheld more in-
humanity nor experienced more incivility than were be-
- trayed by Mr. and Mrs. Foote, who even accused the
medical men and the police of drunkenness.
' Mr. Allen, surgeon, fully corroborated the previous
witness, as also did Mr. Fuller, with the exception that
he did not speak as to the infant havini, lived.
Mr. and Mrs. Foote and one of the attendants ad-
mitted the delay and assault at the gates, attributing
the former to the establishment having been closed at
that hour, and charging the medical men with the
latter.
• Sarrah Farringdon, deceased's landlady, said the de-
ceased, who was in a very distressed state of mind in
consequence of her condition, had some time ago said,
" I think I will make away with myself," of which wit-
. ness took no notice, as she thought it an idle threat.
On the evening of her death she left home in apparently
good spirits.
Mr. Squires, house-surgeon, performed the post-mortem
examination, and found that the mother died from
drowning, and that the infant had been born alive, but
he could not say what caused its death.
` Other witnesses having been examined,
The Coroner elaborately summed up, observing that
the conduct of the officers at the baths and washhouses
in obstructing three medical gentlemen in their humane
efforts to save life was inhuman in the extreme. As
regarded the birth of the child, he did not think it pro-
bable that it had a separate existence from the mother.
The jury, after a short consultation, returned a ver-
dict to the effect " That the deceased, Mary Anne Bar-
nard, destroyed herself by drowning, but there was no
evidence as to her state of mind ; that the deceased
child was removed from the mother, but whether the
child lived after such removal was not proved." The
jury begged to add their high approval of the conduct
of the medical men, and their regret at the obstructions
received in the performance of their duty at the St.
Marylebone Baths and Washhouses.

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.

ST. HELEN'S.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held on
Tuesday at the railway station, St. Helen's, Mr. G.
Greenall, M.P., in the chair.
The report stated that the traffic returns for the past
half-year showed an increase of 4,0001. over the corre-
sponding period of last year, while the increased ex-
penses had been 1,6411., and the additional charge for
interest on loans and preference dividends 3,1171. The
increase in the amount of capital on which interest and
dividend are charged to revenue is 179,6381. over the
amount charged to revenue in June, 1852. The gross
revenue for the half-year amounted to 23,6451., and the
working charges, rates, and taxes to 8,5291., or 36 per
cent. of the receipts, leaving a surplus of 15,1151. From
this sum is deducted 2,9221. for interest on loans, 350/.
renewal of permanent way, and 1851. for additional
works, leaving 11,657/., to which is added 7961., the
balance of the last account, making 12,4531. Out
of this slim is deducted 11,8651. for dividends of
1/. per whole share, 10s. per half-share, 3/. 10s.
per 100/. preference share, 15s. per 257. preference
share, and 58. 7d. per 43/4 per cent. share, leaving a
balance for the next account of 5881. On the 21st June
last the Garston Dock was opened for traffic, and the
directors are confirmed in their opinion as to its proving
a most valuable part of the company's property. The
act authorising the extensions of the line to Rainford
and Eccleston coalfields has passed through Parliament,
and now awaits the Royal assent. The East Lancashire
Company have also succeeded in their application for an
extension to. Rainford, and have made arrangements
for
the use of the Lancashire and Yorkshire line from near
Ormskirk to Southport. The execution of these lines
will complete an efficient railway connexion between St.
Helen's and Southport.
The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report,
congratulated the proprietors that the dock works at
Garston were nearly completed, and stated that be ex-
pected they would have a considerable increase in the
traffic.
After some observations from Mr. King, Mr. Fos-
berry, and Mr. Jack, resolutions were passed adopting
the report—declaring the dividends stated therein—and
re-electing the retiring directors and auditors.
The meeting was then made special, and resolutions
were passed authorising the directors to raise an addi-
tional capital not exceeding 120,000/. in shares of 20/.
each, entitled to a preference dividend of 43/4 per cent.
per annum, subject to redemption at par from and after
August 1860.
A vote of thanks to the chairman concluded the pro-
ceedings.

BORDEAUX AND CETTE.
A special meeting of the shareholders of the defunct
railway company under the above name, was held yes-
terday at the London Tavern, for the purpose of prose-
cuting their claims to the return of the remaining moiety
of the caution money, the possession of which is retaineonsd
by the French Government ; Mr. Alderman Salom
was in the chair.
The CHAIRMAN said, the last time the shareholders
met together was immediately after the French govern-
