DR. DICKSON'S FALLACIES
OF THE FACULTY. Second Edition, enlarged.

'this work has at last been fairly praised and abused into
fame. It is a clever, stimulating, and suggestive book, and
the present edition is considerably enlarged by the accumu-
lation of illustrative facts. It is in other respects improved."

TISE, adapted and written expressly for the USE of
the NON-MEDICAL READER, pointing out a successful
and never-failing mode of effectually Curing those dire Dis-
eases depicted in the works of Drs. Tissot, Solomon, Jordan,
Goss, and others. Br WILLIAM HENRY CASTLE,
Surgeon. Illustrated with Cases.
This little work is not only distinguished but contra-distin-
guished from all others which have preceded it, its pages being
exclusively devoted to 'the curative department, and hence it
may be justly hailed as a great national desideratum. It con-
tains above one hundred choice recipes, adapted to various
stages of the complaint, which is divided into three distinct
heads and progressive stages of treatment, viz.:-Ist, The
cleansing, or detergent ; 2dly, The strengthening, or tonic ;
and lastly, The alterative, or purifying. Into these three grand
divisions, theory suggested, and long experience has demon-
strated, the curative plan ought and must be divided.
The treatment of this disease has, for obvious reasons, been
hitherto confined to some cordial balm, occult tincture, or talis-
manic drops, which act merely as a dram—a temporary stimu-
lus, procured at the expense of the patient's future welfare.
The invalid suffering under mental depression and decay,
impotence, and a host of peculiar and inveterate infirmities,
comprehended under nervous debility, will find this Pocket
Manual written expressly for his use, and adapted to his va-
rious wants.

COURAGE NECESSARY FOR NONCONFOR.
MITY.—For nonconformity the world whips you with its
displeasure. And therefore a man must know how to
estimate a sour face. The bystanders look askance on
him in the public street or in the friend's parlour. If
this aversion had its origin in contempt and resistance
like his own, he might well go home with a sad counte-
nance ; but the sour faces of the multitude, like their
sweet faces, have no deep cause, disguise no God, but are
put on and off as the wind blows and the newspaper
directs. Yet is the discontent of the multitude more for-
midable than that of the Senate and the College. It is
easy enough for a firm man who knows the world to
brook the rage of the cultivated classes. Their rage is
decorous and prudent ; for they are timid, as being very
vulnerable themselves. But when to their feminine rage
the indignation of the people is added, when the igno-
rant and the poor are aroused, when the unintelligent
brute force that lies at the bottom of society is Made to
growl and mow, it needs the habit of magnanimity and
religion to treat it God-like as a trifle of no concern-
ment.—Emerson's Essay on Self-Reliance.
'BARTHOLOMEW FAIR.—The preparations for
holding the fair, which will be opened to-day at noon by
the Lord Mayor, were being actively made last night,
where the different stall-keepers obtained their locations.
These, at the head of which is the large travelling me-
nagerie of Mr. Wombwell, will be nearly on the same
scale of extent of those of last year. Yesterday the
usual proclamation was issued from the Pie-powder
court, at the Hand and Shears public-house, Cloth-fair,
calling on all who take part in the fair to pay their
icc
customs, tolls, and duties, to such
Court, and Ptoaallg e, customs,
of the ity who trade there to
produce their licenses." With the fair this very ancient,
and the most expeditious as well as cheapest Court of
law in the country will expire, as the Fair of St. Bartho-
lomew is now nearly the only place in the kingdom where
any vestige remains of its former powers. It now merely
CO lects the revenues of the fair for the Lord of the Ma-
nor, who is Lord Kensington, and whose steward pre-

long and interesting account of the proceedings at the
Conference, and Mr. Clift concluded with prayer. The
chapel was crowded, and a feeling of deep sympathy
towards our starving population appeared to pervikle
every breast. Though of a devotional character, the
meeting broke up presenting a practical illustration of
the twelfth resolution passed in Conference, viz. :
"That while this Conference declines to prescribe an
y
distinct or specific plan of operations to be pursued by
its members after this meeting breaks up, we pledge
ourselves, that by all such means as may be deemed by
the individuals themselves best fitted to advance the great
cause in which we are engaged, we shall never cease in
our efforts till these unjust and unchristian enactments
which restrict the supplies of food lire expunged from the
statute book."— Wiltshire Independent.
We are glad to learn that the shopkeepers have
again commenced closing their shops for the winter sea-
son at eight, and no customer is admitted after that time.
