"coffee is almost wh. 'L-
amed by hand or steam power over a coke fire. Coffee la' let
in and out of the cylinder by Means of a slide, which is the whole.
*1 of the cylinder, and which it is next to impossible to render-
perfectly air-tight I the consequence of this defect is, that the sul-
phurous and noxious fumes of the coke penetrate into the cylinder
and mingle with the Coffee. We will suppose, however, the cylinder
containing the Coffee to be placed over the fire, which is then co-
vered in, cylinder and all, and the process of roasting to be commenc-
ing. The first evidence of this fact is the vegetable vapour which is
given off by tile Coffee, and which vapour is more or less impregnated
with gallic and mallic acids, which acids, acting upon tile iron, form
gallates and malates with that metal. The heat continues, the va-
pour is condensed, and forms a most noxious fluid, which is mingling
with the Coffee, and by the increasing heat is again vaporised, and
is assisted in its destroying work by one of the most powerful acids
known, namely, by the pyroligneous acid, which is now beginning to
be given off by the Coffee most freely. This vicious acid continues
forming with the iron the acetate thereof, and imparting the same to
the Coffee, which receives, in addition, a sulphurous flavour from the
coke. It should be observed, that so astonishingly great is the quan-
tity of pyroligneous acid formed, that many ounces may be collected
from the roasting a single hundred weight of the berry. The action
of the pyroligneous acid upon either iron or copper cylinders is wall
known; with the former a compound is formed which, if not de-
cidedly injurious to health, gives to the berry a most acrid and dis-
agreeable flavour; whilst, with the latter, the result is verdigris.
Again, by the usual roasting process, which is nothing more nor
less than a s'peclee of destructive distillation, what possible chance
has the aroma of this valuable berry of being properly developed?
Supposing for one moment that it were properly developed, it is well
known to be exceedingly volatile, and would quiekly escape thitiugh
the crevices 1n the slide of the:cylinder ; whilst the vegetable vapour,
being exceedingly sluggish, and containing the vicious and noxious
aelds, would remain behind, giving to the Coffee that cankerous,
acrid, and metallic taste, that renders the infusions of this otherwise
most valuable and wholesome berry a beverage avoided by the deli-
cate, and highly injurious to the health of many who consume it.
For guarding against all these evils, and for doing away with all
those long-complained-of imperfections, her Most Gracious Majesty
has been pleased to grant to Dakin and Company her Royal Letters
Patent.
Ihe plan on Which " Dakin's Royal Patent Coffee" is roasted and
prepared is as follows :—The iron cylinder is altogether done away
with, and the Coffee is never, under any circumstance, allowed to
come in contact with nos. A SILVER cylinder is substituted, and
the heat is obtained by means of the atmospheric air passed over hot
plates, by which 'plan, as neither the fire, nor the fumes thereof, are
in any way allowed to be in contact with the cylinder, the evils
arising from the sulphurous vapours of the coke mixing with the
Coffee are entirely avoided The SILVER cylinder is so constructed
that, through apertures made for the purpose, the vegetable vapour
which contains the vicious acids from the Coffee, is allowed to es-
cape, whilst the apertures, being cloicable at pleasure, are imme-
diately closed as soon as this, the first Part of the process of roasting,
is accomplished. The SILVER cylinder then becomes air tight, and
the aroma, which otherwise would escape, is condensed on the berry,
which thereby contains all its valued and inherent excellence. The
Coffee, after being sufficiently roasted in a SILVER cylinder, and
after being cooled down in a SILVER cooler; is ready for purchasers
who buy their Coffee whole : whilst the Coffee that is supplied
ground, is pulverised between powerful stones, and for better
preservation from the atmosphere, is recommended to purchasers
packed in glass bottle=, containing two pounds each, which are
oorked down.air-tight, and sealed with the Royal Arms.
DAKIN and CO. will have great pleasure in showing many testi-
monials which they have received from the most eminent physicians,
surgeons, and gentlemen of the faculty, as to the beneficial effects
and advantages of " Dakin's Royal Patent Coffee." The following
certificate of Mr. Alfred S. Taylor and Mr. Arthur Aikin, the great
authorities on chemistry, medical jurisprudence, :and the sanitary
question, will, however, no doubt be deemed conclusive :
" We hereby certify that we have chemically examined four
" varieties of coffee—namely, best Mocha, Jamaica, Very Fine and
" Good Plantation (Ceylon) Coffee, both in the raw state and as
" prepared and roasted by the patent process of Messrs. Dakin. We
" have likewise chemically examined samples of the same varieties
" of Coffee roasted at the same time :in the usual way, and the result
" of this examination is that in delicacy of flavour, odour, and as au
" article of diet, the Coffee prepared by Messrs. Dakin's process is, in
" our judgment, superior to that prepared in the ordinary way.
"We have also examined the apparatus used by Messrs. Dakin
" for roasting Coffee, and we find that all the surfaces with which
" the Coffee comes in contact during this process are of silver. We
" find also that great care is taken so to regulate the degree of heat
" and the mode of its application as to render necessary it longer
" time and lower temperature to effect the roasting, whereby all
" risk of charring the berry or of producing empyreumatic oil is
" prevented, the separation of acid vapour is more grpAuni and corn-
" plete, and a larger portion of aroma is retained than occurs in the
" usual methods of coffee roasting.
" The process of Messrs. Dakin appears to us, therefore, in a
" chemical view, better adapted than any yet suggested for procuring
" roasted Coffee in a pure and wholesome form.

L 0 V E is the leading feeling of the human
breast. More exalted than mere passion, it soars high above
every other impulse of nature, and is not only stronger than avarice,
but more engrossing even that ambition. No man 15
exempt from
its influence, or can avoid its sway ; and business, pleasure, philo-
sophy, and divinity itself become neglected under the enthralling
power of LOVE, which, unlike most things, increases in intensity
with time, until it receives the sacred consummation of marriage.
When union dots not take place, however, this passion, this
fervour, this galden tide of the manliest feelings becomes a deadly
poison in the heart, which now darkens, as it before bright-
ened, all things upon earth. How is it that men, of most un-
changeable habits, will change at the very altar, and after a life-
time spent in the fulfilment of every engagement, snap the very con-
tract asunder which should be most binding to an honourable mind?
It is the effect of conscience. The Lover, by enervation of early
habits, •r the results of secret disease, knows himself to be
disqualified, and dares not enter a state which has been
instituted by Divine Law for the fulfilment •f important
ends. The wretched condition of such a being mast subsequently be
beyond measure deplorable ! Loving and beloved, he entails the
most miserable disappointments on the object of his choice, and upon
himself a desolation the most horrible, when the simple possession of
natural attributes would change the scene, and yield to both a life of
unalloyed happiness. The subject is interesting, and deserves the
attention of all. Those desirous of investigating it will find the
fullest and most satisfactory information in the little work entitled
S ELT -PRESERVATION,

and diseased of the reproductive organs ; with practical - observe,
tionson the secret infirmities of youth and maturity, resulting from

This treatise is the result of a long course of study in. a peculiar and
much neglected branch of medical practice, and the author having ob-
tained the highest medical honours, is a guarantee for his profes-
sional experience, which has reference almost solely to the treat-
ment of these diseases.

REVIEW OF THE WORK..
La'Afert en the Infirmities of Youth and Maturity.—" There aro
scenes in the drama of life which are acted with no spectator but
Conscience ; and of these the result is ever disastrous. Happy the
mortal who meets with a timely mentor to snatch him from the gulf
into which such scenes must plunge him 1 In the book before it
such a monitor is to be found, calculated to warn and instruct the
erring, without impairing one idea that can vitiate a mind not al-
ready tutored by the vices of which it treats. It is written in a style
of masterly precision and lucidity, blending the profoundest truths of
philosophy and physics with the loftiest precepts of morality. It is a
production calculated to confer a vital benefit, physically and morally,
upon all who are tempted from the rigid path of abstemiousness and
