THE SPORTSMAN'S THREE WISHES
The sportsman has wishes—we name them—they're three,
With the truth of this version you all will agree :
Now September's set in, most nobly we'll strive,
To keep the old custom of shooting alive.
The game is abundant, the weather is clear,
Bright Phoebus commands all her guests to appear;
But sportsman, before you depart for the fun,
Obtain your three wishes—your Coat, Dog, and Gan,
The first in the field L. SUMS now stands,
For his " Paletot Shooting•coat," known in all lands ;
Enveloped in these, it soon will be found,
That the wind and the rain fall powerless around.
For warmth, style, and freedom, none such can be got,
Just wear one—you soon wil be reckoned a " shot."
Then sportsmen of England, appreciate well,
One who pleases so much, and who strives to excel
For that is the cause why the journals express
Such very great faith in his prime shooting dress.
Fulfil then your wishes—your pleasures complete,
By a call at the Mart, 36, GracecUurch-street.
The stock is unvaried, you can't lack success,
In equipping yourself in a " good Shooting Dress."

burgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, Honorary Member
of the London Hospital Medical Society, &c.
Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions, in order
that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the
veil, which csvers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised,
and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many could
it be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap-
pointments. Excesses are always injurious ; the gift, which when
used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when
abused, the prolific source of mischief, and of greater or less injury
to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on
the nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate,
are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame,
than any other to which it is subject.
This work contains an accurate and complete account of the
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of
their relative conditions in health and disease. It deservedly
requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can
be of more Importance than the preservation of the health,
and of the physical capabilities of which every man should
be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy
victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired
in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering
from their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear of ap-
plyin to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so
frequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints arc
beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking
for assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he
forgets that accurate discrimination in ascertaining the causes of
disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva-
riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the
medical man who can show by his posse -lion of the requisite legal
qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his profes-
sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr.
LA'MERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas
testify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a
guarantee for his professional experience, which has reference almost
solely to the treatment of these diseases.

THE ALLEGED MURDER AT
GRAVESEND.

GRAVESEND, 0cT.21.--Very considerable excite-
ment has prevailed here during the past twenty-four
hours, consequent on the death of a woman, named
Mary Ann Pewter, under circumstances involving a
grave case of suspicion against a man with whom she
ic:ihsearbaibtelde.tenTehmeepnatritnies occupied an apartment in a
New-court,
West-street, near
the water side. Both were habitual drunkards, and
between two and three o'clock yesterday afternoon
they were quarrelling and fighting. The deceased
at length fell heavily on the floor, and an alarm hav-
ing been given by the landlord of the house in which
they resided, some of the neighbours ran up stairs
and found the woman lying dead on the floor. The
man, who had gone for a doctor, :was taken into
custody on his return home, and this morning he
was brought before the Mayor and bench of Magis-
trates on the charge of having caused the woman's
death. He appeared miserably depressed, trembling
violently. The Mayor directed that he might be
furnished with a chair.

The prisoner stated that his name was William

Elizabeth Rose, wife of James Rose, labourer, said,
I live at No. 2, New- court, exactly opposite to where
the prisoner lodged. I knew the deceased, who
lived with prisoner as his wife. Yesterday afternoon,
between two and three o'clock, I was in my up.
stairs room making my beds, their room is midiy
opposite that in which I was, and as both windows
were up, and the court is only about five yards wide,
I watched them fighting at intervals for nearly three
quarters of an hour. Neither of them appeared per •
tectly sober. The deceased, vnts very violent, tore
the prisoner's hair and made several kicks at him.
The prisoner scuffled with her, and slapped her face
with his open hand. The deceased called prisoner an
old ---, and other offensive names. The prisoner
merely called upon her to be quiet. He said, I don't
wish to harm you if you will be quiet.
The MAYOR—Had the prisoner anything in his
hand at this time ?

Witness—No, Sir ; not until just at the last. Ile
then took up an umbrella, and holding it by the handle
struck her with it across the back for two or three
minutes. I saw no blow struck upon the head. The
deceased made no offer to resent the blows from the
umbrella, and while standing before the window I
saw her suddenly disappear, as if from a blow. I gave
no a'arm, and did not go to render assistance until
called by John Bridle, the landlord of the house in
which the prisoner resided, who said he had a
mur-
dered woman up stairs. When I got up into the pri-
soner's room, 1 saw deceased lying on her side on the
floor, with her knees bent up a little. I touched her
hand, and found that she was dead.
Frances Rose, daughter of the last witness, was
next called.—She deposed to having been called up
stairs by her mother to see the prisoner and deceased
fighting. She corroborated generally the statement
of her mother. She heard deceased tell the prisoner
to pack up his things and
go about his business; he
thereupon took several things, and among them two
umbrellas, and came down stairs and placed them
against an empty house in the court. The deceased
looked out of the window, and called to the prisoner
to come up again, adding that "she was ready for,
him, and that she had not had it half enough yet,.
meaning, as witness supposed, the beating. The pri-
soner then took one of the umbrellas, and, grinding
his teeth, went up stairs again. In a few moments
witnessibeard blows, and the deceased cried out to the
prisoner, "Go on, you old for you have not
half hurt me yet." The prisoner then hit deceased
again, and she fell heavily on the floor. Deceased
cried out that she was fainting, and directly after-
wards witness saw the prisoner run out of the
house.

John Bridle, the landlord of the house, said that he
and his wife hld been out drinking with the prisoner
and the deceased during the morning. All of them
were more or less intoxicated.
The superintendent said, the surgeon (Mr. Saun-
ders) was now, as he believed, before the coroner,
who had empanelled a jury to inquire into deceased's
death.
The MAYOR, said, under these circumstances he
should remand the prisoner until to-morrow (this
day), when he would be brought up for further ex-
amination.

THE INQUEST.
The coroner's inquiry commenced
at two o'clock, before M

cent date. There was one fearful contusion behind
near

the left eye. The legs
and arms were covered with bra's

Mr. John Gladdish Saunders, surgeon, of Graves-

and three o'clock yesterday. He found her lying on
