AN AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR,
with REMARKS on the VARIOUS INCIDENTS
which have occurred during FORTY-FIVE YEARS of his
LIFE, and a FULL DESCRIPTION of his MODE of
TREATING DISEASES, with REASONS EXPLANA-
TORY of HIS SYSTEM.

By SAMUEL WESTCOTT TILKE,
Medical Herbalist, Author of " Random Reflections on In-'
digestion, Gout, Tenia Capitis, Scarlet Fever," &c. &c.
" Mr. Tilke is one of those individuals who, bor❑ with a
wooden spoon in their mouths, have, by the alchemy of thrift and
industry, converted it into silver. He began the world as a jour-
neyman baker, but every intermission from the labour of the knead-
ing trough, was devoted to the pursuit of medical science. Any
man who makes such unceasing efforts as he has done to allevia e
the sufferings of humanity, is entitled to honourable mention."—
Times, Nov. 3.

" In this volume we have the autobiographical memoir of a man,
whose career in life has been a chequered one, but who, by sheer
dint of perseverance, ant' showing a gallant front to misfortune,
had the satisfaction of seeing all his efforts crowned with success.
The Memoir is an interesting one, as showing what may be accom
plished by energy and good conduct ; and it is written in a cheerful
and benevolent strain. As a Medical Herbalist, Mr. Tilke has
effected a variety Of surprising cures In obstinate cases of gout,
rheumatism, and indigestion. His mode of treating some of these
diseases is fully described in the course of his Memoir, and he has
added reasons explanatory of his system, so that he who runs may

read."—The Sun, Nov. 5.

" Few men connected with the complicated departments of
surgery are deserving of more grateful mention than Mr. Van
Bu:chell, whose unwearied dedication to the cure of those most
painful of all diseases, which this book treats of, has resulted in
a continued course of success in cases of the most hopeless and
forbidding nature. * We find nearly every page re-
cording some astonishing cure in patients whose sufferings
had been of many years' duration, ,nd most excruciating in
their nature. The warmth of expression with which the gra-
titude of some of the restored is couched must be truly gratify-
ing to the feelings, and highly creditable to the skill and judg-
ment, of Mr. Van Butchell. —Weekly True Sun.

SADLER'S WELLS THEATRE.—The fearful
plot that stained our annals two hundred years ago, and
still perpetuates the name of Guy Fawkcs, forms the basis
at this house of an historical drama into which all the in-
terest and splendour have been thrown that could emanate
from scenes undignified by fabulous heroism or superna.
tural agency. The piece opens with an assemblage of
the conspirators at l'ercy's mansion, on the banks of the
Thames, where Tresham, his friend, is reluctantly induced
to join their league, which he finally divulges, after many
struggles between the impulse of humanity and the
promptings of honour. This part was played by Marston
with equal judgment and vigour ; it is essentially a pivot
upon which the entire action turns, and could not find a
more zealous or efficient representative. It is at this
meeting that Guy Fawkes presents himself, embodied by
Honner in a truly pietpresque way, and from this point he
pursues the cruel and perfidious course, which ends by
bringing him to the block, with no qualities to assuage our
horror at his deeds, but the stubborn courage and despe-
rate fidelity that attend them. A comic episode has been
framed for the employment of Collier, as a silly, sottish
knight. The piece is produced, in every respect, with
great skill and care, and will doubtless continue to prove
attractive. Another novelty, of French origin, called the
Pilot's Son, has also been eminently successful, and forms
