TRAINING INSTITUTION FOR NURSES
FOR HOSPITALS, FAMILIES, AND THE POOR.
All who are professionally conversant with the condition of oar
Heap', als complain of the inadequate supply of well-trained nurses as
en evil seriously interfering with the efficient discharge of their do-
ties. 'they cannot trust to their orders being executed by t
nurses, and they find that the patients sutler from faults of those on
whom, in their state of helplessness, they are almost entirelyharac-
dei en-
dent ; and it is obvious that any defects in the tempers and c
ters of these who are constantly with the sick must exercise a hurt-
ful influence upon the state of their minds, and must tend to neutral•
lac: the effect of the religious Instruction and consolation which they
receive while in the hospital.
It I. also matter of general notoriety that great difficulty is found
in oetaining well qualithal nurses to attend on patients in private
(amino, especially in those of the middle and lower classes; and
parochial clergymen feel the want of competent persons on whom
they could rely, in visting the sick of their respective parishes, and
administering to their bodily wants.
The moot effectual, perhaps the only effectual. remedy for these
evils, Is to train up a body of nurses who shall be taught to look
spas their work as a religious one, to undertake it with habits of
self-c-oretrce, and with a mind understanding it fully, and prepared for
its trying and painful duties.
'the want here spoken of has been felt in other countries as well as
in our own, And attempts have been made to meet it. Orders of
persons devoting themselves to visiting the sick exist in Roman
Catholic countries: an " Institution of Deaconesses" hiss been found
useful in Prussie ; a recent attempt to improve the respectability of
professional nurses has worked beneficially in England. The Insti-
tution which It is proposed to found under the name of " Training
Institution for Nurses" will be based on the doctrine and discipline
of the Church of England ; and it will seek to accomplish its object,
not by selecting the self-devoted few who are permitted by freedom
from other ditties to give themselves entirely to this, but by endea-
vouring to act, both directly and Indirectly, uponh
the whole body of
persons who are pursuing this as their regular calling in life. To
raise the character of the class by offering to its members a training
which shall qualify them for their professional work, and be at the
mne time aesentially a religious training to hold out, to those who
are justified in seeking for it, the prospect of a higher professional
position than theyld otherwis

and to afford also to
those who are read withouty hope

labour: these are the means which, as they have been suc

land, may, it is hoped, be now instrumental, under God's blessing,
in raising that of a body which is at, present so much in Want of
improvement.
it is proposed that the Training Institution should be under the
immediate superintendence of a clergyman of the United Church of
England and Ireland, as Master.
That the inmates of the Institution should consist of three
classes :-
1. These under training as probationers.
2. Those who, after passing through the period of probation sa-
tisfactorily, are admitted as nurses, on condition of their engaging
to continue in connexion with the institution for a period of five
years from their admission. During this period they will be clothed
and maintained, derceiv a fixed annual stipend, and in return
will be entirely un the control of the governing body of the In-
stitution.
At the end of these five years they will be entitled to receive from
the institution a certificate of their qualification as muses, and
thenceforward to pursue their calling, either in connexion with the
Institution, or independent of any direct sontrol from it. It is be-
lieved that this will be a very important step towards gradually
retiring the character of the whole class.

upon them, and will encourage those who are looking forward to this

3. In addition to these there will be a class of sisters, which is in-
tended to comprise persons, of whatever station in life, who are
willing to devote themselves to the work of attending the sick and
poor, or of educating others for it under an organised system like
that which a ill be here provided for them.
The management of the Institution will be confided to a council
of twenty-tour members, (exclusive f the master, who will be
ex officio a member,) belonging to the United Church of England
and Ireland, who shall be chosen by the Governors out of their
own body.

Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions. in order
that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the
veil, which Cfrfe,':, the origin of domestic wretchedness, he raised,
and its true source la every instance disclosed, is how many could
toe traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap-
pointments. Excesses are always injurious ; the gift, which when
used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when
abused, the prolific source of mischief and of greater or less Wary
to the constitutional aid vital powers. The particular excesses. ea
4w nature and conseauence of which this Treatise professes t• dilate,
are productive if greater severity of misery to the hums,' frame,
than any ether to which it is subject.
This work contains ai accurate aid complete account of the
Anatomy and Phyi.iology of the Peproninctive Organs, aid of
their relati•;e conditions in health aid disease. It deservedly
requires the closest atteatien aid study, fir what subject cam
be of snore importance than the preservation if the health,
and of the physical capabilities if witch every man should
be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy
rictus it excessive indulgence aid vicious habits, whether acquired
in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while safferiig
trent their invariable conseqnciees, anwisely entertains a fear of ap-
plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread se
frequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are
beyond the reach if art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking
'or assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he
forgets that accurate discrimination. a ascertaining the canoes of
disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, lava-
riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the
medical man who can show by hl.s posse.sion of the requisite legal
qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect la his profes-
sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr.
LA'MERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas
certify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a
guarantee for his professional experience, which has reference almost
solely to the treatment of these diseases.

ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY A-YEAR.
At the present political juncture we hear
Tory much of " Ono Hundred and Fifty a-Year,"
And I certainly think it will nit be amiss,
To say a few words on a subject like this;
For the topic of income is certainly one
Which calla for a line from E. MOSES and EON.
Many persons indignantly " set up their backs"
At the thoughts of an income and property-ta.x
F.specially so when it reaches the sphere
Of a limited " Hundred and Fifty a-Year."
The statesmen themselves ars divided about it,
Some wish to retain it, while others would scout it ;
Some cry " Let us Lava it," and others cry " Waive it;"
But the neutral language of MOSES is " save it
All persons poseeesed of a " hundred and Fifty,"
Mayo need to be prudent, and cautious, and thrifty,
And the fset of an income and property-tax,
Should teach them to wear MOSES' coats ou their backs.
'll.O savings by MOSIIS would shortly appear
In the tax on a " hundred and Fifty a-Year,"
The coats, vests, and trewsors, the hate, and the abets,
Weald save theta far mere than the taxes would lose ;
And the worth of the garments would make them appear
POSBeB,9'd of Five Hundreds and Fifty a-Tear ;
And thus have we proved that the subject is one
Whion specially bears on E. MOSES aid SOX.

TO MR. PROUT, 229, STRAND.
" No. 208, Piccadilly, Lendon, October 19, 1847.
" Sir.—lt is new three and a half years since I was sorely afflicted
with Rheumatic Gout, the suffering from which induced tie to try
all the proposed remedies that extensive medical experience could
devise, without obtaining any satisfactory relief from pain. During
one of the paroxysms a friend advised me to try FLAIR'S GOUT
and RHEUMATIC PILLS, observing that he had in some severe
oases taken them himself, and they proved very successful. I in-
stantly adopted his advice, and to my joy the excruciating torment
soon began to abate, and a few boxes restored me to health, since
which I have had no return of the complaint. _ _ _

" I trust you will give publicity to my case, that suffering humanity
may know how to obtain a remedy for this distressing disease.
" I am, Sir, your obedient humble servant,
"MICHAEL IiA.SMYTH."

The above testimonial is a further proof of the efficacy of h air's
Goat and Rheumatic Pills, which afford. speedy relief to those afflicted
with gout, rheumatism, lumbago, sciatica, tic doloreux, pains in the
head and face, and all analogous complaints.
The never-failing effects of BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC
PILLS in curing every description of Gout and Rheumatism, have
secured to theca a celebrity unequalled by any medicine of past
or present times. They not only give relief in a few hours, but re-
store to perfect health in an inconceivably short space of time. They
are equally speedy and certain in lumbago, sciatica, pains in the head
or face, and indeed in every rheumatic or gouty affection : in fact,
such has been the rapidity, perfect ease, and complete safety of this
medicine, that it has astonished all who have taken it ; and there is
scarcely a city, town, or village in the kingdom but contains many
grateful evidences of its benign inluence.
Sold by Thomas Trout, 229, Strand, London, and, by his appoint-
ment, by all respectable Medicine Vendors throughout the United
Kingdom. Price 2s. 9d. per box.

OWLANDS' MACASSAR OIL.

It may with truth be averred, that ROWLANDS' MAC AS-
SAR OIL has enjoyed an extent of patronage and public favour dui.
ing the last half century which is totally unexampled in the annals
of felicitous discovery. The extraordinary efficacy, and happy amal-
gamation of its purely exotic materials, have rendered it justly re-
nowned throughout the world for its remarkable virtues in nourish-
ing, preserving, and beautifying the Human Hair. It insinuates
its balsamic properties into the pores of the head, nourishes the Hair
in its embryo state, cleanses it frail scurf and dandriff, accelerates
its growth, sustains it in maturity, and continues its possession of
healthy vigour, silky softness, and luxurious redundancy to the latest
period of human life. In the growth of Whiskers, Eyebrows, and
Mustachois, it is also unfailing in its stimulative operations. For Chil-
dren it is especially recommended, as forming the basis of a Beau-
tintl Head of Hair, and rendering the use of the flue comb unne-
cessary.
Its invaluable properties have obtained the especial Patronage of
her Majesty the Queen, the Court, and the whole of the Royal Family
of Great Britain, and of every Court of the civilised world ; and the
high esteem in which it is universally held, together with numerous
Testimonials constantly received of its efficacy, afford the best and
surest proofs of its merits.

ADVENTURES
OF A
MEDICAL STUDENT.—This work consists of a series of
stories rather resembling ' The Diary of a late Physi-
cian,' resembling it certainly in the tragical (and often
terrific) character of the tales. They have most of them
a striking, many of them, a startling species of interest,
and indicate no common power of imagination. The
work will be enjoyed by the readers of fiction, and the
more so on account of the variety of incident which it
embraces, there being upws.rds of twenty distinct tales.
In many of them, where the interest is more of a domestic
nature, the scenes are ofa
mat
itender and touching
character; in others, the interest s more terrible in its
nature, touching upon dark deeds of bloodshed. Nor
are there wanting stories: f the strange and then uper-
natural. In fact, we the first fruits of wild
and fervid fancy, revelling in its full luxuriance.—

Amongst those relations in which one man feels
very repugnant to stand with another? is that of security ;
and although a friend may express his willingness to do
much to serve you, he evinces a strong disinclination to
become responsible for your actions or fidelity. This
feeling so generally pervades mankind, that it is a matter
of difficulty to procure persons who are not under its
influence. This difficulty is, however, now happily re-
moved by the formation of an association, professing to
stand responsible for the fidelity of persons in situations
of trust, for a trifling annual per tentage, and which,
under the direction of influential gentlemen,
has offices
in the capitals of both England and Scotland. In the
former, at 9, IVnterioo-place! Pali-mall, and in the latter,
at 127, Princes- street, Edinlin.r9l!. The Lords of the
Treasury, the Poor-law Commissioners, and others, are
amongst those who, convinped of the beneficial nature
of this association, have given it their
,sanction, and
accept it as ample security.
[Ae,VEUTISEMENT.]—The most
,immediate remedy
for Coughs and Colds is llolloways Pills.—This cele-
brated and extraordinary, medicine is not only an effec-
tual cure for coughs, colds, hoarseness, or even loss of
voice, but is likewise a certain remedy in all cases of
wheezings, shortness of breath, and asthmas. Persons
who may be so bad as not to be able to lie down in bed
lest they be choked with phlegm may be radically cured
by these pills when every other means have failed. This
atter class of sufferers mays,epend. upon getting great
relief in the first three day and
.in. ten days they will
