SIX LESSONS ON SHORT-HAND.
By P. B. TEMPLETON,
Late Reporter for the " Manchester Times "
W. S. Orr and Co., Amen Corner, Paternoster -row, London ;
Bancks and Co., St. Ann's-square, and Heywood, Oldham-
street, Manchester ; and may be had of all Book'ellers.
By these Lessons any person may make himself acquainted
with stenography in an incredibly short time._ The author re-
quests attention to the following not ces --
" Possessing at least fifteen years' practical experience, and
having read every system of short-hand I could obtain access
to—having . myself a collection of about sixty different
systems, printed and in MS.—I may say that, as it appears to
me, ycu are the first to strike out of the beaten path of steno-
graphical writers and teachers, in the mode of your instruc-
tion and order of your lessons [ think a more
rapid progress may be made in the knowledge, not
only of your particular system, hut of the principles of the art
generally, by your book than by any other I have-seen."—Let-
ter from Mr. J. Harland, Reporter, Manchester Guardian.
" The simplicity and orderly arrangement of the lessons ar e
such as we hare never seen equalled; indeed, nothing better
adapted to the wants of students of short-hand could be de-
sired or conceived. "—Manchester Courier.
" From the clear and easy rules laid down in it to instruct
the learner, it is one of the best works on short-hand that a
student can possibly lay boll of ; and, viewing it in comparison
with other works on the subject, we do not think it has a com-
petitor."—Manchester Times.
" We have looked through this treatise with much satisfac-
tion, and believe we are safe in recommending it to the atten-
tion of all intending students of.the art, as the most complete,
sensible, and practicable system ever brought under our notice."
—Manchester and Salford Advertiser.
" The arrangement of the lessons is at once novel and ex-
cellent, and the instructions are conveyed in clear and perspi-
cuous language. We have no hesitation in saying that the
learner needs no other instructor than this little work to
enable him to acquire the art, and to practise it with success."

—Leeds Times.
" We have read this little treatise very attentively, and have
no hesitation in pronouncing it the best work on the subject
that has yet been published."—Post Magazine.
Templeton's character as a short-hand writer, in con-
nection with the press for a number of years, is a snilicient
guarantee of the practicability and excellence of his system."
—Manchester Chronicle.
" Mr. Temp!eton's great experience and general accuraPy
as a short-hand writer entit'e his observations on the teaching
of the art to careful attention. From our own knowledge of
Mr. Templeton's capabilities, as weq as from a careful perusal
of his work, we have formed a very high opinion of its merits."

—Leeds Intelligencer.
" Among the best works on this branch of science is one
lately published by Mr. P. B. Templeton, a gentleman who
has been a long time connected with the English press, and
who is as skille • in the practice as in the theory of short-hand
writing."—Dublin Pilot.
" The exercises given only require a little attention to be
understood ; and we may venture to assert, that with Air.
Templeton's six lessons as guides, if the learner posses.es ap-
plication for study and opportunity for practice, he may ac-
quire, in a short time, sufficient knowledge of short.han I to be
able to follow the most fluent speaker."—Duhlin Evening
Packet.
" We have read this little book with great care and attention,
and we feel no hesitation in recommending it as the very best
treatise we have ever read on the science of short-hand. It is
the practical work of a practical man. Nothing is laid down
by the author as proper to he done that he has not himself
found to be so—and that the writer of this, who has had some
fifteen years experience in the Law Courts, at public meetings,
and in the gallery, does not cordially approve of."—Planet.
" Those who wish to know short-hand, and desire to prac-
tise it, as they Fee it every day used by those connected with
the Press, will learn the six lessons' by Mr. Templeton, and
persevere with them. Those who have a desire to be deluded
—to lose at once their money and their time—will deal with the
advertising quacks who prof ss to make men accomplished
stenographists in a few days—they might as well profess to
teach a child to read in six hours from the first moment at
which it commenced learning its alphabet. Mr. Templeton
professes no such thing. He gives six good lessons in short-
hand—and he leaves them to the learner, with sount, advice,
that requires only to be followed to be most prefitable."—Bell's
New Weekly Messenger.
" After giving Mr. Templeton's book 'a careful perusal, we
have much pleasure in recommending it as tne best work on
the subject we ever happened to meet."—Bolton Free Press.
" The student will find this a simple and easy system. The
alphabet, the prefixes, and terminations, as well as the arbi-
trares, appear to be easy of acquisition, and judicionsly selected
for rapidity in writing, while the rul,s and exercises arc so
plain and succinct that they cannot be misunderstood."—York
H erald.
" To those who are about to engage in tl e study of this use-
ful and interesting science we would point out this cheap little
work as worthy of their attention, feeling assured that the
carrying out of the system laid down will enable them to
realize most of the great and important advantages connected
with it. It is written by a practical man, one who has had
many years experience in short-hand writing, both for his own
private purpose and for the benefit of the public in connection
with the newspaper press in some of the largest towns in this
country."—Yorkshireman.
Besides these the opinions of nearly fifty other periodicals
might be quoted, all of which speak equally in favour cf the
merits of this little work.

The Work which is now presented to the publie is the result
of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affec-
twos, which fer some unaccountable reason have been either
altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in-
difference, by the c7dinary practitioner. Ts enter into the
details of these affections, to point out their causes, and to
mark the terrific consequences, social, moral, and physical,
which are sure to follow from indulgence, in certain habits,
would be entirely out of place in an advertisement. We have
no hesitation, however, in saying that there is no member of

PitINCEALBERT'S VISIT TO THE
VESSELS OF THE NIGER EXPEDITION.

His Royal Highness Prince Albert, who has always evinced
the liveliest interest ie the expedition that is shortly to proceed
to the River-Niger, has availed himself of the earliest opportu-
nit y of inspecting the ves els to be engaged in it.
His Royal Highness, attended by the Hon. Major Keppel,
Sir E. Bowater. Mr. Anson, Etc., proceeded
.on Tuesday to
Deptford Dock-yard, and immediately embarked on board her
Majesty's ship Albert, where he was received by Captain H.
D. '!'ratter, the colon-milder of the expedition.
'Co afford an eppo tunity of seeing the other vessels, and of
examining to greater advantage the arrangements of the Albert,
she was gpt under weigh, and proceeded to Woolwich, where
her Majesty's i,hiise Wilberforce and Soudan, the other vessels,
were lying. His Royal Highness inspeeted minutely every part
of the Albert, and appeared much interested with his Visit.
The principal pecutarities in the construction of this ves-
sel, and the general arrangement of the machinery, were
pointed out to him, as well as the nautical instruments, the
method of coerecting the compasses (which was explained by
Pref, ss r Airey the sliding' keels. Captain Smith's
paddle boats, Air. Giant's patent fuel, and fir. Reiol's venti'-
attng at d medieetieg apparatus, the latter of hieh. waserter•
`Vt,jeet perculiar. interest. Dr. Reid expiainel and super-
ine ndee the vontilanng experiments performed on board, in
which I.e was akista Dr, 11i`William, surgeon of the
ship, and head surgeon of the expedition, in whosp gltarge
ve..tilating apparatus is placed, illustrating its action,
by exl.,.usting the air from the various compartments, and
afterwards propelling it into them—by altering the ar-
ran:ement of the valves—various odorous matters and
other substances were successively eomeennieated to the
air, which rendered i7s progress visible. 'I hose experiments
were concluded by filling 'the lowerdeck (where the men
sleep) with a dense smoke, which was rapidly exhausted, and
discharged by the fanners, preying to the great satislaction of
his Royal Hight-Res the command which the apparatus had in
regulating the movements of the air.
't he paddle-box boats of Captain George Smith also excited
'much interest. • Captain Smith showed the method of getting
them off and on the piddle wheels These boats are covered
with another boat of basket work, with a cover of sailcloth over
all, making altogether four beats, in addition to the number on
board other steam vessels fitted in the usual manner,
The Prince, on the Albert's arrival at Woolwich, was waited
upon by Capt. Phipps Hornby, CB., the senior naval officer
of the port ; Capt. William Allen, of her Majesty's ship Wil-
berforce ; Capt. Waehington, of her Majesty's ship Shearwa.
ter ; 'Capt. Bullock, of the Boxer ; and after these and the va-
rious officers of the Albert were introduced to his Royal High-
ness, he proceeded on board the Wilberforce and the Soudan,
the other vessels of the expedition, where he was respectively
received by Commander William Allen and Commander Bird
Allen. After inspecting these vessels the Prince landed at the
Dock-yard. where he was received by the Commandant of tho
garrison, and amidst the cheers of a crowded assemblage who
had awaited his arrival ; and he entered his carriage, and pro-
ceeded direct for Buckingham Palace.
Sir Powell Buxton, attended on board the Albert to
pay his respects to his Royal Highness. There were also intro-
duced to him—Dr. Reid, Capt Smith, Mr. Laird, of Liver-
pool, the builder of the vessels ' • Mr. Creuxe, of Portsmouth
Deckyard ; and Mr. Grant, the inventor of the patent fuel,
which was used instead of coal on this occasion, and the advan-
tages fully pointed out by that gentleman.
This visit of the Prince to her Majesty's ship the Albert was
the more interesting, as it was the first which his Royal High-
ness has paid to a British man-of-war.
