11A TRIMONY.

N 0 Disol...ilers have contributed more essen-
t.L:ty to destroy Hymenoul Happiness than those
iclt are the consequence of unguarded pleasure. People
of every rank pay adoration to the shrine of Wedlock ; but
where the Constitution has keen tainted by Disease, a reno-
vationof stability is indispensably requisite,
Twenty years-have we. devoted our practice to the exclusive
treatment of the following Disorders ; and the • successful
result of our plan gives us additional ardour to oppose, as far
as we are ithic,the ravages of those Complaints; which are the
most important in the catalogue of Human Intirmities.
.The Disorders to the cure of which we have devottd our -
attention, comprise every species of Venereal. Infection ; all
kinds of Debility, whether arising from the habitS of school-
boys, or,the indulgences of mato,' .; age; that derangement
of the system in Nl•omen' which is called Barn:11110S or .steri-
lity; Seminal Weakness,Gleets, Obstructions is the Urethra;
as also Strictures,. whether.recent or of long duration, and
which have battled the skill of other Practitioners, are by our
present improved plan M treatment effectually and perinte;nently cued,- without the Patient suffering the excruciating
pain anti alarming hemorrhage which frequently follows the
application of the-lunar caustic. In the course of our exten-
sive practice in this Metropolis, numerous cases of Strictures
have been and are daily under our care, the total eradication
of which is effected by a safe, certain, and expeditious mode
of cuie, superim' to any other yet adopted. The weatness,
relaxation, and debility, proceeding from this complaint, are
speedily removed, and, the patient restored to sound and vi-
gorous he.. 16. But where the debility has for years existed,
a proper perseverance in our restorative remedies is indispen-
sably requisite, to revive the Slumbering sparks of life, and to •
reanimate the constitution. • !
Numerous Diseases arc the result of ignorance or baste in
the treatment of a simple Gonorthcea ; and it,uot unfre-
quently happens that the seeds of life are poisoned by the in-
discretion of an unguarded hour. 13y it superior method, such
complaints are easily cured ; and even where others have
failed, -we trust that we may presume to offer a radical esta-
blishment. - .
Few, Lowever, are the cases of complicated distress of this
disorder, compared with the calamitous situation .of men,
who, from an indulgence in a solitary vice, or the prevalent
gaieties of a fashionable life, acquire that state-of Debility
• which is the unavoidable consequence of such pernicious. ha-
!bit's. • Where the unhappy soberer broods over his misery,
hot carefully conceals his misfortunes, it may he some con-
solation for hint to know, --that although it tie an object of
oruncertainty with other Practitioners, the removal of
these deficiencies, by the gradual progress of Renovation, is
the acquirement of our experience. If the rites of :Bacchus
or Venus have begun to reduce manly vigour, much. anxiety
will be prevented by an early counteraction of this languid
state, and in those eases uo ;great difficulty will occur.,
Patients in the country are requested to state the particu-
lars of their case, age, and general habit of living, and in-
closing a• remittance for advice and medicines, when the
'same will be given or seat to any part of the kingdom.

MR. WESTAtL'S

We. promised to resume. Onrnolice of tilt
thictions which this ingeniodt Artist baS Submitted
toipublic inspection in ins New Gallery: r•ough
many of these productions have been Seen t.efore., •
`ntl.have, indc-cd, lecArnmeactcd b ems-el vel th •
atintiration. of criticism, yet their' high rietitt:
enable their to afford ne.* gratification t eiletY-
sneee'ssive review. Arnow e the most c'nts-H.cnco-i.
of the Works in this Gallery, is the reere:;e:;;t:!-,..
tion of A herd attacked by Lions, ilinStratietc one
of the conipartments in the Shield of _ichillcs.
this picture the Artist has ;fully.entered intp.the
conception 'of Poet,, and hat given'an anima
mated view of the terrific event. The fury of the
Lions, the agony of the cattle which becoMe
their prey,. the alarm of the dogs, the resolution
expressed hy.sOme of the tuen, Cue variety of emo-
tions which appear in the faces of the others, and
the beauty or the surrounding scenery,. all .ste.ve
strong imagination, regu!itted ,by judgment and
taste, and a degree of mechanical skill that is
rarely, vee.y, 'rarely, united to the above qualities.
Another most excellent picture, which denotes
a mind • animated by a true poeticaLspirit, .is
C.EsAe pass:ng the Rubicon. This- picture hats
also receireil the warm tribute of cri.ical- appro-
bation, and it fully deserves it. The Genius of
Rome, a magnificent and awful figure. is repre-
sented as crossing the way of. the Licro, who
regards bee with a resolute gaze, and is not de-
terred from pursuing the object of his ambitibn.
The composition of this picture is admirable, hurt
the whole_ is marked by an . energy of character,
and a sobriety of colouring, thateyince the merit
of a first-rate Artist. _Christ, when i Child, reason-
lug-with the'Doetors,is st''prOoli!litt the Artist tan
enter into subjects of Scripture with the spine
itielgniebt as. those, of a poetical nature.---
The figure of Christ, though characterised by the `
„simplicity of childhood, has a majesty.. that. may
be supposed to accompany a.being•of-div'ne-,rigiu.
ile,appears to.he inspired his countenance. is.
enlivened by a conviction of; the trtq) of the doe-
trines which he inculcates ; itud the expliessibu of
confidence., hes;tation, a,nd doubt, in :he hearers,
are well discriminated,' and :pOweiftillrmarked.—
. We shall proceed in our review of a colleetion,
Which we must again pronounce an honour t-4 the `
" British School.
