CONFINEMENT ; illustrated with numerous Cases.
Published by 11. Renshaw, No. 356, Strand ; sold also be
the Author, No. 16, Percy-street, Bedford-square.
" The Author appears to have had long experience, extensive
practice, and great success, in the treatment of hemorrhoidal
affections, the result of which is here published in a brief form,
and language intelligible to the least scientific reader. "
It must excite a feeling of deep intere,t and gratification in the
minds of all suffering from these afflictions, to learn from Mr.
Van Butchell's testimonials, that cases of 30 and 40 years'
standing have yielded to his practice."—Morning Advertiser.

METROPOLITAN INFIRMARY for the
CURE of STRICTURES of the URETHRA,
GONORRHEA, GLEETS, SYPHILIS, &c. This Insti-
tution is closed, but as the Surgeon of it feels assured that
there are hundreds suffering under the diseases, to the cuts of
which it was especially devoted, who would gladly avail them-
selves of his professional assistance, rather than place them-
selves under the charge of chemists, or, worse still, have recourse
to any of the dangerous and inefficient nostrums daily ad-
vertised, he has made arrangements to see patients at his
own residence, at the mere expense to the patient of the neces-
sary medicine. Thus persons of limited means have now on
onortunity of securing for themselves a mode of treatment
that, whilst it is based on experience, is regulated by the pecu-
liarities which their own cases and constitutions may require ;
thereby freeing themselves from the absurdities and dangers
that wait upon the employment of one kind of medicine for all
forms of these diseases, without regard to these essential
particulars.

This high-minded and most amiable gentleman paid the
debt to nature
for scme time suffering from an internal complaint, but he
was only confined to his house about a month.
Simon M'Gillivray was the youngest of three brothers
of a respectable Highland family, who followed the for-
time9 of their uncle, the late Simon M‘Tavish in the
far-famed North West Company of Montreal, established
shortly after the Americae Revolution. Before that
time, a number of rival traders, partly English, pat tl)
French, carried on the fue trade at separate stations to
the westward of .1_40.4e Huron. The competition and con-
tests arising from conflicting interests, led to their union
and ;he formation of the North West Company, which,
forming its establishments, at the Grand Portage on the
western shore of Lake Superior, pushed its discoveries
under Sir Alexander M'Kenzie to the Frozen and Pacific
(Wens, and by degrees formed pos. s thougheut the
immense regions between Canada and Vancouver's
Souno. In these expeditions, the elder brothers of
Mr. M'Gillivray bore a conspicuous share, and every
person acquainted with Canada will recollect their amia-
ble charac!ers, and the distinguished hospitality with
which all strangers were received at their residence in
Montreal. Differences subsequently took place between
Sir A. M'Kenzie and the North West Company, which
led to the formation of a rival association in Canada,
followed by the contests baween both, and the Hudson
Bay Company, and Lord ';elkirk, familiar to all our
readers, that finally terminated in an union between all
the parties under the Act of 1820, and the transference
of the whole trade to the Hudson Bay Campany, by whom
it is now carried on. Mr. William M'Gillivray died in the
subsequent year, leaving the settlement of most compli-
cated and conflicting interests and accounts, on the winding
up of the affairs of the North West Company, to his bro-
ther
i Simon. The fortunes of both were involved and sa-
crificed in the settlement, which was nevertheless effected
in a manner reflecting the highest credit on their honour
and integrity.
After this Mr. M'Gillivray went to Mexico as Commis-
sioner to manage the affairs of the United Mexican Mining
Company. The arduous duties of this situation he dis-
charged during five years with great ability, and to the
utmost satisfaction of the Company whose interests were
confided to him. His decision of character and persever-
ance peculiarly fitted him to struggle with difficulties.
The toil and fatigue lie encountered during those five years
must have injured his constitution. He returned to Eng-
land towards the latter end of 1835, when a friendship of
long standing with Mr. Easthope led him to take a share
in the Morning Chronicle. Subsequently a nearer con-
nection took place between them.

Few men so extensively engaged in important business
have passed through life with a higher reputation for un
stilled integrity and rigid adherence to principles, than
Mr. M'Gillivray, No man ever hesitated to place the
most implicit reliance on his honour. His word was
sacred. His intentions were always pure, and his con-
duct open and straightforward. We do not believe that
there exists, the individual who would say that Simon
M'Gillivray, in any one of the numerous transactions in
which he was embarked, did him an intentional wrong.
But if be was it,fl.xibly just, he wa-, at the same time,
kind and generous almost to a fault. His confidence once
bestowed was not lightly withdrawn, and he was a firm
and unshaken friend in the hour of trial.

His natural abilities were strong, and he had carefully
cultivated them. He had applied himself successfully to
several branches of science and his taste in the fine arts
was generally admitted. He was a close reasoner, and
whatever he wrote was remarkable for a lucid arrange.-
ment. Having arrived carefully and methoeically at his
conclusions, he was with difficulty driven from the opi-
nions he had once embraced. He never pronounced an
opinion till he had carefully examined the subject.
In the private relations of life he was exemplary—an
affectionate husband and parent, and a kind brother. He
has left a widow and an infant daughter.
It would have been affectation to have allowed the con-
nection of Simon M'Gillivray with this journal, or his re-
lationship to its principal proprietor, to have re=trained us
from paying a brief tribute to the memory of a gentleman
so long and extensively known and esteemed both in Eng-
land and America. But we have sparingly used the pri-
vilege of friendship in this brief sketch of his life and cha-
racter.

[We cheerfully give insertion to the above well deserved
cutogium. Simon AV Gillivray was a man of great and
varied abilities, but his talents were only second to his cha-
racter for honour, integrity, and unbounded amiability,
Ile was a gentleman of rare excellence, whose loss will be
long and deeply regretted.—En. Sun.]

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS.

Ii FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY.
(From the Illorr,ing Chronicle.)
In the event that one shudders to imagine, the lamen-
tation of the people might, indeed, have been—
" Then you, and I, and all of us fell down,
While bloody treason flourished over us."
And what would have' followed, who. can realise ? We
mean not merely the private anguish of a princely heart,
nor the blighted hope of a Royal succession, nor the sor-
rows of El generofis netional sympathy, but the dark cloud
that would forthwith have lowered over all the prospects of
the people. We should have been at this moment the
vassals of a now foreign potentate. We should have
been breathing in the dominions of King Ernest of
Hanover I Orangeism would have been rampant !
over Great Britain and Ireland there would have been a
letting loose of the bitterest, foulest, and darkest fiends.
The oppressor would soon have been abroad, and close on
his track the insurgent whom the oppressor makes and in-
furiates. It would have been as if the wheels of time were
turned back to a period of dismay, disorder, and fierce
I collision. Thank heaven I every day, for weeks to come,
will be a day of national thanksgiving. The public heart
waits not for formularies. The joint address of the Houses
of Lords and Commons has the merit of fitly and simply
expressing the common feeling. What voice will not say
I Amen to its " earnest prayer to Almighty God to preserve
to us the protection of her just and mild government, and
a life so justly dear to us."
(From the Morning Herald.)
In whatever " madness" or "method" this strange and
mysterious affair may have originated, there is one grati-
fying circumstance connected with it. The universal ex-
pression of sympathy which the apprehended danger to the
Queen's life has called forth, evinces the wide-spread and
deep.rcoted loyalty of the people—that feeling of affection
for the Sovereign, and reverence for the Throne, which
the seditious doctrines, so extensively disseminated for
some years past, with the encouragement or connivance
of her Majesty's Ministers, have not yet extir-
pated. There are persons who say that Oxford's
crime was the result of a Chartist plot, for the purpose
of exciting terror throughout the country, and thereby
producing a state of general excitement and confusion
favourable to ulterior Chartist enterprises. The circum-
stance of the perpetrator of the act having come from
Birmingham, has been relied upon in support of this ru-
mour—perhaps it gave rise to it. Birmingham is said to
be the focus of Chartism and sedition. If it be so, who
made it so? Did not the Whigs, by their infamous cajo-
lery of the working classes during the Reform Bill mania,
sow the seeds of disaffection, riot, and sedition in the
minds of the " masses" at Birmingham, Bristol, Notting-
ham, and other populous places, which seeds we have seen
sp: ing into such a luxuriant crop of evil to society ?
( From the Morning Advertiser.)
We feel assured, that the instigators, if instigators there
be, of the traitorous attack on her Majesty's life, are alto-
gether insignificant in point of number, and that her
providential eseapo will be a matter of rejoicing to men of
every shade of political opinion throughout the coun.ry;
including even those who in moments of excitement have
given utterance to language of which they now ?sleet
bitterly repent. When the first shock of surprise, end ex-
citement has passed away, the feeling will naturally ariso,
what would have been the situation of England at the
present moment if the traitor's sire had not been providen-
tially frustrated. It is a question which we can hardly put to
ourselves without shuddering. When we consider, on the
one hand, the great interesta at stake, the divided state of
parties, the critical condition of Ireland, goaded by Tory
hostility into the verge of insurrectiou—the great questions
of Canada and China still unsettled, and the growing
exasperation of the labouring and productive classes
against the Corn-laws, and other oppressive taxes upon
food and industry-..and, on the other, the hands into
which the sovereign power of the British realm would, in
the natural order of succession, have devolvosl—sve are
filled with dismay at the prospect which would have
awaited us had the attempt of the assassin been unfortu-
nately successful.
(From the Morning Post.)
We observed yesterday that the House of Commons in
committee on the Sale of Beer Bill debated almost every
clause, and went to a division upon most of them. We are
not surprised at the interest taken in the new arrangements
and restrictions which are sought to be established with
respect to the bser-shops in the country ; for, while the
" philosophers.' and free traders think it a violation of
" principle" to impose any restraint or regulation upon the
sale of anything, they who live in the country, and feel in-
terested in its peace and welfare, know by experience
what nests of mischief these houses for the sale of beer
are foiled to be. We trust, therefore, that Mr. Peking-
ton's Bill will became law, and that since we cannot now
get rid of the mischiefs of beer. shops altogether, they may
at least ho placed under such regulations as will tend
to mitigate the evils which have been found to arise from
their existence.

(From the Times.)
It is impossible to reprobate with too much severity the
spirit in which Ministers carry on their warfare against the
recognized laws of Parliamentary proceeding, and their
systemhtic obstruction of every measure which has the fair
play of the Constitution, disregarding faction, for its end.
Lord Stanley's 13111 for amending the Registration Law of
Ireland was sure to meet from Mr. Daniel O'Connell
and his Downing-street dependents, at the very out-
set, a fierce and deadly opposition. Fictitious voters,
with elective franchises purloined through the worst
mano3uvres of fraud and perjury, under the patronage
of a priesthood whose vocation is exclusively factious,
form the constituency of that Irish section of the House of
Commons which obeys on all occasions the O'Connell
mandate, and seeks the dismemberment of the British mo-
narchy by means of violence or treason. Whoever, there..
fore, should_approve himself the enemy of fraud and false-
hood, .by introducing or supporting a measure Which
