We Promised in a former number that we should recur to this
wart, in order to exhibit its aim more clearly. The author lashes
with great severity the impokors who make a livelihood by preying
on the credulity of the public. The tribe of Quiet Syrnathlsers,'
and Medical Friends,' are mercilessly exposed; and if this book
could find its way into the hands of those who stiffer frum tn com-
plaint of which it treats. we are satisfied that many It indreds would
be Paved 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
pirical ,ystem of treating Spermatorrhcea, and to place the treat-
-i"tt upon a more rational and physiological basis. It is, therefore,
krdy to do much good."—Medical Circular, June 16, 1852.

THE CURE OF STRICTURE 07 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 he (Mr. Courtenay) has given
history of a great many cases successfully treated, as bad
a any which Mr. Syine adduced, and on which he had operated.
-itch are cases ix., xi., ail., and xviii. No. ix. had res•sted, for a
period of twelve years, the treatment by dilitation, and was finally
re roved 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
treatment adopted by Mr. Courtenay proved eminently successful."
