The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con-
Sequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities and excesses,
which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man-
hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any
Other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is
particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of
their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded
the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is
entitled. The Author has for a series of years been engaged in an
extensive practice in the treatment of these delicate complaints,
and has long directed attention to these enormous evils, from which
no grade of society is free. Their treatment has unfortunately teen
too generally confided to the care of unqualified and ignorant cm-
pirics, who, with their pirated publications, assumed foreign names
and titles, and pretended virtues of their patent nostrums, inflict
great iujury on those who are induced to place faith in their preten-
sions. The serious consequences resulting from such mal-practice
may easily be avoided, it sufferers from these maladies were to ascot
Lift if their medical adviser be a member of the London College of
Physicians, urgeons, or Apothecaries' Hall, as any one possessing
either of these qualifications usually appends it to his name, and thus
the legally qualified practitioner can at once be distinguished.

WESTERN AUSTRALIA.

-- -
Accounts have lately been furnished of the genera'
condition of the colony of Western Australia (Swan
River), showing that in this settlement the continued
introduction of convicts is regarded with satisfaction,
and has unquestionably been attended with favourable
results. Owing to the system pursued, which gives
great encouragement to good conduct, while, at the
same time, a strong coercive power is vested in the magis-
tracy by summary jurisdiction, disorder is rendered rare,
and, although 2,000 ticket-of-leave men are scattered
throughout the inhabited districts among a free popula-
tion whose numbers do not reach 9,000, the criminal
cases for the whole year 1852 were not merely reduced
to a point to compare most favourably with the social

themselves the gratifying fact of the security felt by all
as to the safety of life and property in every part of
this widely-extended possession." Meanwhile, the
growth of trade and industry has been very satisfac-
tory. The revenue for 1852 was 37,0211., showinglhie
an increase of 11,8541. on the preceding
the expenditure was 34,7771. ; the year,
port whiles
the were
97,3031., showing an increase of 40,7051. ; and inthe
entries of shipping there was likewise a large augmen-
tation. The land sales also continued rapidly to increase,
and the prosperity of the settlement seems to have
been greatly stimulated by the facilities given to men of
the yeoman class to purchase small blocks, even to the
extent of 10 acres. The exports of 1852 showed a slight
decrease, apparently attributable to merely temporary
causes, such as a falling off in the whale fishery, and a
delay in shipping the last clip of wool. The export of
sandalwood had at the same time entirely ceased. The
total of live stock had considerably increased, but the
want of fre:di pastures threatened to prevent any further
great extension, and the exploration of the country be-
tween the Murchison and Shark's Bay. and thence to
the mouth of the Gascoigne, had not resulted in the
hoped-for discovery of good land. An expedition to
the southward, through the hitherto unknown district
of Lanark, had also failed in discovering anything of im-
portance, save a small tract of desirable soil, intersected
by almost impassable scrub, some distance inland from
the coast. With regard to the mineral resources of the
colony, of which considerable expectations have been
entertained for the last year or two since the discovery
of the Geraldine Mine, it is stated that there is at last a
hope of a regular exportation of lead and copper to the
eastern seas, a vessel being already engaged at Port
Gregory (about 40 miles from the Geraldine Mine) to
take a freight of lead to Singapore.
