PEOPLE'S EDITION OF

SIR WALTER SCOTT'S NOVELS.
On SATURDAY, JANUARY 1, 1842, and to be
continued each Saturday till the whole is completed, No. I,
Price Twopence, containing one sheet royal Bvo., double co-
lumns. of WAVERLEY ; or, 'TIS SIXTY YEARS
SINCE. With all the Author's Introductions and Notes.
To be immediately followed by " Guy Mannering," " The
Antiquary," and all the other Novels and Romances of Sir
Walter Scott.

The Proprietors are anxious to meet the wishes of many in-
telligent Correspondents among the Working Classes, who re-
present that, notwithstanding the great circulation and unpa-
ralleled celebrity of THE WA VERLEY NOVELS, thou-
sands upon thousands of our industrious countrymen have yet
to form acquaintance with the Baron Bradwardines and Fergus
M'lvors, the Meg Merrilees and Dominie Sampsons, the Edie
Ochiltrees, Old Mortalities, Die Vernons, Rob Roys, Jeanie
Deanses, and numberless other immortal creations of the Prince
of Novelists. The edition now announced will, it is hoped, be
allowed to put these marvellous performances within the reach
of the masses.

It is expected that the entire Novels will comprise about 260
sheets ; and, besides the Weekly Issue, a Monthly stitched
Part, price Ninepence, will be delivered with the Magazines.

By J. L. CURTIS and COMPANY,
Consulting Surgeons, London.
Published by the Authors, and sold by Itailiere, Medical
Bookseller to the Royal College of Surgeons, 219, Regent-
street; Strange, 21, Paternoster-row, London; Guest, Bir-
mingham ; Sowler, 4, St. Arm's-square, Manchester ; Philip,

be had of all Booksellers.

This Work, a Seventh Edition of which is now presented to
the public, ten thousand copies have been exhausted since its
first appearance, has been very much improved and enlarged
by the addition of a more extended and clear detail of general
principles, as alio by the insertion of several new and highly in-
teresting cases. The book, as has been already stated, is the
result of very ample and daily increasing experience in a class
of diseases, which, for some unaccountable reason, have been
either altogether overlooked, or treated almost with indiffer-
ence, by the ordinary medical practitioner. The proverbial
and well known rapacity of unqualified practitioners, who
traffic on the health and credulity of patients, has been en-
couraged and aroused by this supineness, on the part of the
regular surgeon. In order to obviate the pernicious effects
sure to result from the practices of such pretenders, the
authors have for a considerable time devoted themselves ex-
clusively to a certain class of diseases ; of the necessity of so
doing, they were further convinced by feeling that tact i n in-
vestigating the latent sources of many diseases, which arise
from certain secret practices, can only be acquired by an ex-
clusive and undivided attention to this department of medical
practice. The numberless instances daily occurring, wherein
affections of the lungs, putting on all the outer appearances of
consumption, which, however, when traced to their source,
are found to result from certain baneful practices, fully proves
that the principle of the division of labour, is nowhere more
applicable than in medical practice. We feel no hesitation in
saying that there is no member of society by whom the book
will not be found useful, whether such person hold the relation
of a Parent, a Preceptor, or a Clergyman.
The PARENT, who beholds his beloved child pining
away, and fast approaching to a premature grave, in conse-
quence of some disease, which, for want of careful' investiga-
tion of its real cause, has been set down to the score of con-
sumption, will, on perusing this work, be astonished to find,
that in nine-tenths of the cases of young persons of both
sexes, who perish of what is called pulmonary consumption,
heart disease, tapes, &c., the sole and exclusive origin has
been the indulgence in certain destructive habits practised by
youth much more frequently than it is at all suspected.
The PRECEPTOR, also, who holds (temporarily at
least), the relation and responsibility of a parent, will,
by. perusing this work, be directed and very much
assisted in investigating and detecting the too often con-
cealed practices so often introduced into schools, whereby the
health and ultimately the lives of his pupils are sure to be
com-
promised, unless the evil be arrested in proper time. He will
here find a clue to guide him "through the intricate mazes of
this moral labyrinth, and a standard whereby to judge, when
delicacy of health should appear to attack any of his young
charges, what the real causes of such attack may be, and thus
he will be enabled to check the evil in its incipient state.
The CLERGYMAN, in whose sacred character is at once
concentrated the two-fold relation of parent and instructor, will
here be directed as to the nature of those habits to which
youth is addicted; he will also be enabled to point out the dis-
astrous consequences which are sure to follow from them if not
relinquished.

Messrs. CURTIS and CO. are to be consulted daily at their
residence, No. 7, Frith-street, Soho-square, London.

Country Patients are requested to be as minntc as possible in
the detail of their cases—as to the duration of the complaint,

whatever can be taken of their application ; awl in all cases, the
niott inviolahio seam/ way be relied on.

PENDRELL'S PATENT FLEXIBLE
PENHOLDER.—To ensure ease and comfort in the
use of Steel Pens, now in such general use, W. P. has, at
great trouble and expense, constructed a PENHOLDER :pos-
sessing four great requisites. viz., cheapness, durability, neat
and elegant appearance, and flexibility.
To quote here the many scientific opinions that have been
given on the uses of Steel Pens, and of the great necessity of
having. Elastic Holders, would far exceed the limits of an
advertisement.

The Proprietor humbly, but with great confidence, ays
before the public this little, but no less effectual, promoter of
comfort, to all grades of society using a Pen, knowing that his
Flexible Penholder has only to be tried to be approved of.
Manufactured solely by WILLIAM PENDRELL, Silver-
smith, 17, Regent's-place, Birmingham.

their cause? When before did it happen in Eng-
land that a popular movement was dependent
upon such instruments? We have no recollection
that hired lecturers were employed in the anti-
slavery movement, or in the Reform move-
ment, or in the Romanist movement in Ireland
—the only part of the United Kingdom where it
was not unpopular. Just now the Non-Intrusion
question is the subject of much excitement in
Scotland, or at least very lately that question
was the subject of much excitement; but we do
not find condottieri engaged in the contest on
either side.

COURIER.—In spite of the course of argu-
ment pursued by some of our Contemporaries on
the subject of emigration, and notwithstanding
the severity of their sneers and the closeness of
their logic, we may venture to predict that Govern-
ment will not be frightened from attempting, at
least, to profit by the spirit of enterprise that pre-
vails at home, and to convert colonial wilds and
deserts to fertility and productiveness. Land job-
bers may be baulked—the dividends ofColonization
Companies may be diminished—the sharks prowl-
ing about emigration offices may be disappointed
of their prey—the cry of distress may fail factious
journalists—but the extent and promptitude of
the relief afforded thereby to the country would
easily reconcile us to such disasters. It is true, as
stated by an Evening Contemporary, that it is only
in relation to the means of profitable employment,
that our population can be considered as exces-
sive or superabundant. There is nothing very
startling in the novelty of this doctrine, and
were there any available mode of furnishing
sufficient employment in the parent State to
capital and labour, it would unquestionably
be unnecessary to trouble ourselves about
the best means of transferring either or both to
our colonies ; but unfortunately it happens, as
practice and theory combine to prove, that with
all her manufacturing energy, England is unable
to carve out work for her population commensu-
rate with their wants. Do what what we may, and
Let political economists preach as learnedly as they
may, other nations will manufacture themselves,
and protect, by means of import and other du-
ties, their manufactures against foreign rivalry.
England may mould or change her fiscal policy
into whatever shape she will, other nations will
adhere to the protective system, and compel her
to look to her own resources for the means of em
ploying her people, and these resources are no-
where so available orso abundant as in our colonies.
At the present moment we consider the true policy
of England to be, not to waste her time and energies
in chasing after "foreign trade," at best uncertain
and wavering, but to promote the growth and
'expansion of her Colonies, and thus provide
herself, as it were, with the best, safest, and
most constant customers and, therefore, we
cannot look with indifference upon anything that
tends to that desirable end.

.ONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS.
FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY.
POST.—The English Funds were more visibly
acted upon to-day than they had previously been
by the operations of the leading brokers, the
sales of whom were resumed, and continued to
the extent of about 50,0001.; but, as the money
transactions terminated at an early hour, and
the transfer-books close for the dividends to-
morrow, prices, before the business of the day
had ended, fully recovered their previous eleva-
tion, and, indeed, exhibited a fractional advance.
The delay that is to take place in the payment
of the Portuguese half-dividend has created a
very bad impression in the minds of parties well
versed in the chicanery of the Necessidades, and
withal, the deplorable poverty of the Treasury
of Donna Maria. They fear that it is but the
too certain precursor of a total re-suspension.
Money is said to be already in the hands of the
London-wall agency, and if this be true, why
carry the business properly belonging to Decem-
ber over to the month of January? If it be a
manoeuvre, intended only to drive dissentients
into the iniquitous conversion scheme, we may,
with confidence, assert that, after the recent
Mansion-house expose, in "re Baste," it will
prove a signal, not to say a disgraceful and dis-
gusting, failure.
The Spanish Active Stock, which is with us no
more than 25, is quoted from Madrid at 34f cash,
and 36 at two months. The difference is a
puzzle that no one not fully in the secret of Spa-
nish affairs seems able to interpret. The truth
lies, we hope, and believe, in the fact, that the
Regency is fully resolved to put an end most
effectually to the system of favouritism and di-
lapidation which has been so long prevalent in
the Government departments of the monarchy,
and that the circumstance is better known at
Madrid than, as yet, it is here. In the purchases
of the national property, for instance, the Gran-
dees, and others possessing influence in the
highercircles, have been allowed to take what they
wanted, comprising the most enviable and valuable
domains in the country, for the payment of which,
whether in cash or bonds, they have heretofore
been held exempt by an Administration as corrupt
as themselves. According to the best information
we have been able to obtain, the. present ener-
getic Government have come upon these courtly
and wealthy defaulters with a decree for which
they were little prepared. It is determined that
the abuse, which has been carried to a most
scandalous extent, shall be instantly put a stop
to. Purchasers of all ranks will be required,
without distinction, to pay up, not only the sums
originally due to the State, but the rents and
interests also of various kinds accruing on their
respective lots from two to seven years. This is
the only rational solution that has been given
us of the anomalous state of the two mar-
kets, and certainly the acceptance of the finan-
cial agency of Spain by a house so distinguished
for its integrity as that of Aguirre, Solarte, and
Murieta is calculated to induce a confidence in
the adoption, on the part of the Regency, of a
system of credit the reverse of that which has
been but too long tolerated.
CHRONICLE.—The Bank broker has been
operating largely to-day as a seller of stock.
These sales are effected under the Funding Act
of last session, which empowered the Govern-
ment to create a new stock for any deficiency
under the loan of 5,000,000/. The jobbers, we
believe, had anticipated these sales, and had pre-
pared themselves accordingly, by selling Bears,
so as to enable them to take them without incon-
venience. TiPe discredit in the Exchequer bill
market has also tended to support the funds;
and although money stock has been offered out
freely both yesterday and to-day, prices have
not receded.
TIMES.—The notice of the acquisition of
Cuba by the English, which was mentioned the
other day, seems by the American papers pretty
generally diffused over the Union. Several •f
the Journals speak of an interference of Eng-
land in the affairs of that island as portending
some decisive movement. Hence the state of
feeling in Cuba has been closely watched, to ob-
serve if there is any sign from which a willing-
ness to exchange a Spanish for an English ruler
might be inferred. A New Orleans paper states
that at the latest dates from Cuba the Creoles and
some of the old Spaniards talked of rendering
themselves independent of Spain, many regarding
Espartero as no more than an usurper, whom they
were not bound to obey, and the heavy imposts
laid on many of the necessaries of life tending
greatly to foment the spirit of discontent. The
fears of a result like that at St. Domingo it is
supposed might operate as a check against a re-
volutionary outbreak, and the Americans are
willing enough to suppose that the anti-slavery
doctrines of this country would be sufficient to
prevent any coalition with Cuba; but still the
obvious anxiety with which the subject is dis-
cussed shows that they do not consider the pos-
sibility of the English acquiring the island so
remote as they affect to believe. All the ad-
vantages that were suggested the other day from
a private source are admitted in the American
papers themselves, and the writers perceive
clearly enough that the, addition of Cuba to our
other islands would, as it were, draw a net round
the Gulf of Mexico and the mouth of the Mis-
sissippi, and place the exports from the south of
the Union completely in our power.
The last Gazette contained the return of the
circulation of notes in the United Kingdom ac-
cording to the new Act, embracing the period of
fbur weeks preceding the 13th of November.
From this return it appears that the average cir-
culation of the Bank of England for the above-
mentioned period was 17,065,000/. which shows
a decrease, as compared with the preceding four
weeks ending the 16th of October, of 275,0001.
The country circulation in England shows a
decrease,. as compared with the Preceding month,
of 63,490/., which has been produced by a de-
crease in the Joint-Stock Banks of 98,2491. less
a slight increase in the private banks of 34,759/.
The total decrease in the circulation of England
is, therefore, 338,4901.
In Scotland there has been an increase of
179,3331., and in Ireland an increase of 698,541/.
The result of the whole, therefore, presents an
