affirmative, and recommend the work to the notice of our readers."

THE RATIONAL TREATMENT of STRIC-
TURES of the URETHRA, in all their varieties and compli-
cations. With practical observations on the use and abuse of instru•
ments in tke treatment of urethral diseases, allowing that the unne-
cessary employment of instruments is a frogaent exciting cause of
stricture, and that a want of practical knowledge and manual dex-
terity in their use, when necessary, is the soiree of most of the se-
vere, long-protracted, and complicated cases of that disorder so fa-
tally prevalent.

gp OTANIC WATER and BEAR'S GREASE.
When the hair is becoming thin, and falling off, the only ef-
fectual remedy, besides shaving the head, is the use of the two above-
named articles, applied alternately, tho botanic water to cleanse the
roots from scurf, and as a stimulant, and the bear's grease as a nou-
risher. If ally further evidence was required of the virtues of bear's
grease for renovating and preserving the hair, Mr. Catlia's account
of the quantity used, and the length of hair obtained by some of the
North American Indians, would be a sufficient answer.

" The operation of introducing a catheter through an impermeable
stricture is, without doubt, the most difficult in the whole range of
surgical operations, and demands all the prudence, science, and skill
of a master. The art can only be acquired, and that gradually, by
frequent practice."—Lipton's Operative Surgery.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.
(Before Mr. Sergeant ADAMS, Assistant-Aidge, and a
full Bench of Magistrates.)
The Court sat yesterday morning to hear appeals and
bail cases.

THE SANITARY BILL.
Thomas Mitchell was indicted by the parochial autho-
rities for a misdemeanour, in keeping " bone-boiling"
premises in Great Peter-street, Westminster, and
" thereby causing the atmosphere to become impreg
nated with certain noxious and deleterious matter, cal-
culated to injure the health of the inhabitants, and creat-
ing a public nuisance."

Mr. PAYNE intimated that his Learned Friends Mr.
Clarkson and Mr. Bodkin were, as well as himself, con-
cerned in this case, and as there were a vast number of
scientific gentlemen who were to be called as witnesses
in the course of the trial on both sides, he lamented to
find that it should have been placed so low in the list.
It was exceedingly inconvenient to a large number of
gentlemen whose time was most precious, not merely to
themselves, but to the public. The case could not but
occupy a very long time in its trial, and therefore, as it
would be impossible for it to be taken after the other
cases in the paper had been disposed of, he would ask
that it might be adjourned over to a future day, when it
should stand the first on the list.
The Learned JUDGE said, it no objections were raised
on the other., side, he could very easily grant the ap-
plication. As there was no opposition, and as it was
quite manifest that the postponement must be attended
with advantage to all parties, he would order the case to
stand over to the Bth of March.
THE CASINOS.—Bench warrants were in the course of
the day granted ..to Stowell, who prosecutes in these
cases, against the proprietors of the different casinos,
against whom the grand jury have found true bills,
Stowell entering into recognizances of 1004 to prosecute
with effect.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
GUILDHALL.

An elderly woman, named Ala rgaret Jones, was
charged with begging in the streets.
John Plant, 37E, said that he saw the prisoner, about
seven o'clock the previous evening, begging on Ludgate-
hill, and several times cautioned her that if she did not
desist he should be obliged to take her into custody. He
walked on a few yards and then turnedrounterdaen, when
dsaelny
she
ar
henadtera Mr.lnaf Pgiuvrecneltlo'sh,
her. He
baker,Hecor
andingly took her to and beg there,
the station-house, and on being searched the loaf and
4d. were found upon her.
The prisoner in defence said she was not begging, but
went into the shop with lid. in her hand to purchase
some stale bread, intending to lay out the rest of the
money in buying a little tea and butter. The owner of
the shop not having any stale bread, gave her the loaf
found in her possession.
Alderman HUNTER sentenced her to seven days' hn-
prisonment.
David _Deans, another well-known beggar, was charged
with a similar offence.

William Bayley, 271, said that he found the prisoner,
whom he had known for the last two years as getting his
living by begging, in St. Martin's-le-Grand, soliciting
alms from every one he met. On being searched he
found 7d. in copper, a tobacco-box, and two duplicates
;n his possession.
Alderman HUNTER sent him to prison for seven days.
