AN HISTORICAL and PRACTICAL
TREATISE on SYPHILIS, its Consequences, on Stric.
tures, Eruptions, Nodes, and Nocturnal Pains, so frequently mis-
taken for Rheumatism. These subjects are illustrated by a variety
of highly interesting cases, together with the miseries of a secret
vice, so long and so unhappily pursued by the youth of both sexes.
In the one it will be found an unfailing source of barrenness, in
the other have its ravages fatally, developed by a distressing state
of debility which, if not timely remedied, terminates in impotency
these are its remote and ultimate effects ; whilst Consumption,'Loss of Muscular Power, and• various other complaints, :usually
characterise the earlier stages of these distressing diseases, for the
Cure of which the Author has laid down a plan of treatment which,
during his experience of upwards of thirty-five years' extensive
practice, has invariably proved successful ; with concluding remarks
on the evils resulting from attempts at self cure.

" Amongst the numerous medical and surgical works of the day,
we consider that written by Dr. Courtenay on Syphilis and other
frequently fatal complaints, to be worthy of the highest encomiums
and justly deserving the serious attention of all those personsll2
may unfortunately happen to be afflietwl with the maladies which
form the subject of this very interesting publication.
.Thelumi-
nous views taken of these diseases, together with the im pr
aattild
warnings against excesses, entitle this work to great praise
we may add, as a further recommendation, that it is Vg lt. written Wi

TO MEMBERS OF PARLIAMENT AND -THE MAGIS.
TRACY OF ENGLAND.

ILE LEGISLATURE : RECUEIL GENE-
RAL DES LOIS NOUVELLES mises en regard de
toutes les DISCUSSIONS des CHAMBRES FRANCAISES.

The reports and discussions on the laws amongst the leoislative
bodies are considered by all well', informed persons as the best and
most infallible of commentaries. Yet, besides these practical ad-
vantages offered by the labour of the Legislature to the Magistracy,
the discussions in the French Chambers should forcibly interest
Members of the English Parliament, as they embrace all the ele-
ments of society in France. We therefore now offer to the English
a work published after each Session, containing the laws voted in
its duration. By the side of these laws is placed more methodically
and more at large than in other publications of the same nature,
the motives, the reports of commissions, &c. ; in fact, all the dis-
cussions of which those laws have been the subject in the Legisla-
ture. As our work is published in numbers containing several
sheets, each number will contain the discussions on several laws
given consecutively, and without those interruptions which render
reference to them difficult. The explanation of the-laws will com-
prise Treaties, which are the works of the most talented individuals
in our chambers ; and thus the Members of the English Parlia-
ment will find in the " Legislature" much information respecting
our political, civil, and financial Administration. Magistrates 'and
lawyers will also find discussed and determined many legal points of
great importance.
The price of the " Legislature" for England is 25 francs for the
year ; that is, for all the laws voted during a Session.

Subscriptions to be addressed (post paid) to M. Antoine Floret,
Avocat, Bureau du Legislateur, Rue St. Dominique, St. Germain,
No. 99, containing an order for 25 francs on any commercial house

in Paris.

Translated from the French, and inscribed to Mr. Warren.
I've seen the dew-dro, fiat from high,
I've seen its influence on the flower ;
I've poneer'd o'er its brilliancy,
And love its all-resplendent power;
And oft I've seen Golconda's gem
Glitter upon the diadem :
But ne'er saw I that beauteous bloom
That on my bright ',hoes here is set,
Nor thought I they could e'er assume
Such a refulgent glossy jet !
For Warren's Blacking there displays
Beauty on which I ne'er had thought to gaze.
Then, Warren, take the praise of one
Whose best of washes thou hest won.

Bradford paid their highly respected Liberal representative,
E. C. Lister, Esq., the handsome compliment of presenting
him with a silver salver, and entertaining him at a public dinner.
TRIBUTE FROM THE EAST INDIA COMPANY'S
MARITIME OFFICERS TO SIR JOHN PIIILIPPART, EDITOR OF
THE "NAVAL AND MILITARY GAZETTE."—At the final meeting
of the Committee of the Hon. East India Company's Mari-
time Officers included in the scale of compensation, it was
proposed by Mr. Coplirg, seconded by Captain ,Probyn, and
resolved unanimously —" That, as a trifling token of the
grateful appreciation on the part of the Honourable East India
Company's Maritime Officers of the generous kindness and
public-spirited gratuitous assistance of Sir John Philippart..,
and the handsome manner in which he has, sPontaneously and'
repeatedly, urged the justice of granting compensation to the
Maritime Service upon the Legislature, the Government, the
Company, and the Public, that gentleman be earnesily re-
quested to accept a gold pen with ruby nibs, which may serve
to lighten the labours of his writing cabinet, and sometimes
remind him of the good which he has done so (lii.interestedly,
and at t.1.-e same time so poWerfully, as to give atiother re-
markable instance of the incalculable value of a Free Press to
every class of the community, especially to such as ma; be
suffering under any grievance.—Signed on behalf of the Com-
mittee, JOHN COPLING."
" Mr. James Smith once said to this gentleman,
° Hill, you take an unfair advantage of an accident; the regis-
tof of your birth was burnt in the great fire of London, and
you avail yourself of your cireurnstanee to give out that you are
younger than you are It is generally understood that lie sat
for the portrait of Paul Pry; this, Mr. Poole, the author (in
his amusing" Sketches and Recollections') denies; but he is
undoubtedly the hero (under the name of Hill) of some of
the best scenes in Gilbert Gurney,'—a book containing more
genuine humour and graphic description than all the recent
publications of the comic order put together."—Quarterly
Review.

TIIE LATE GALES.—In Yorkshire and other
places the late heavy gales did much mischief. In the neigh-
bourhood of Thirsk they stripped, oierturned, and scattered
many hay and corn stacks, uprooted several trees, and tore
away the limbs and branches of others. At South Kilvington
a house was partly blown down, but fortunately all the inmates
escaped.
Thursday a numerous body of the Electors of the
Ward of Bassishaw gave a dinner to their recently elected Al-
derman, James White, Esq., in honour of his accession to the
important office of one of.the Magistrates for the City of Lon-
don, as a token of their respect for the liberal opinions advo-
cated by that gentleman in his desire to benefit the inhabitants
of the City generally, by advocating a thorough reform in its;
municipal institutions. The dinner was given at the George.
Tavern, Aldermanbury, and reflected much credit on the pro-
prietor, who had exerted himself very successfully to render it
worthy the occasion. •
The fall of snow was so great on Tuesday in the
neighbourhood of Amesbury, that the roads became com-
pletely impassable, the snow lying in some places upwards of
ten feet deep. The Telegraph coach, on its way to Exeter,
after dining its passengers at the Deptford Inn, had not pro-
ceeded far before it became embedded in snow, and all at-
tempts to extricate it proved utterly unavailing. The coach,
proceeding to London on the same road, experienced also a
similar obstruction, and the passengers in
happened to be Lord. Exmouth, were compelled to postpone
each,lllloll, which
their journey to the following morning. We are in justice
bound to say that the coachmen and guards used every po-
sible exertion to proceed, and that the landlord of the inn,
Mr. Davis, sent a chaise with six strong horses to extricate
the ladies from the vehicles, had it not been for which
lhthicehy
must inevitably have remained in them allnigh
night, in
probability,v
case, from the drift of snow in which one of the coaches was
subsequently found to be buried, they would, in all
have been suffocated.
THE SNOW STORM —The West of England has
been visited by a great fall of snow, which lasted the whole of
the consequence was, that all
vehicles Tuesday,
b aavned till
been late aotr
en i gohr t ;
less retarded in their" progress
through the country. The up mail, on Tuesday evening, did
not reach Sherliorne till some hours after its usual time, and
was, we are informed, occasionally so imbedded in the snow as
to require the aid of men, with shovels and other instruments,
to extricate it. The down mail, on Wednesday morning, was
also several hours after its usual time,• from the same cause.
A gradual thaw, however, followed.the fall, which still con-
tinues, the snow is, consequently, fast disappearing.—Sher.
borne Journal.
