THE CLOCK
and theil Stockl‘,l A R
The Mart of E. MOSES and SN" with
May in snarly respects b
And I think I be compared to a clock ;
cas make it appear in my • rhyme,
That the clock•mart in question keeps very good time.
It is never too fast, and is
never too slow,
And though never wound up, it continues to go.
And bringing a well known expression to b
' The trade is conducted like One o'clock there,ear
While MOSES and SON, in their capital stock,
Have proved very clearly they know what's o'clock.
F.. MOSES and SON have attained a renown,
As two heavy weights which can ne'er be run down ;
And their dress, which in all points is made to your liking,
Has ever been viewed as remarkably striking ;
And thousands by cheapness and quality won,
Are striking good bargains with MOSES and SON.
The very low figures tempt poople to buy,
And tie very good hands make the Mart to rank high.
Thus the Warelnuse of MOSES and SON with its stock.
Has in many respects been compared to a clock;
And I now think it better to wind up the rhyme,
With the hope that the reader will ask what's the time.
N.8.--E. MOSES and SON invite especial attention to their pre-
sent Stock of juvenile attire. The designs are elegant and unique,
and the workmanship and materials are such as to command univer-
sal approbation, while at the same time the prices are unusually mo-
derato.

QELF-PRESERVATION; a Medical Treatise
on the Physiology of Marriage, Infelicitous and Unproductive
Unions, and the Secret Infirmities and Disorders of Youth and Ma-
turity, usually acquired at an early period of life, which enervate
the physical and mental powers, diminish and enfeeble the natural
feelings, and exhaust the vital energies of Manhood ; with Practical
Observations on the Treatment of Nervous Debility and Indigestion,
Whether arising from these causes, close study, or the influence of
tropical climates: Local and Constitutional Weakness, Syphilis,
Stricture, and all Diseases and Derangements resulting from Indis-
cretion. With Forty coloured Engravings, illustrating the
Anatomy, Physiology, and Diseases of the Reproductive Organs,
explaining their strictures, uses, and functions, and the various
injuries that are produced in them by solitary habits, excesses, and
infection. BY SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D.,

Marriage reqeires the fulfilment of several conditions. in order
that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the
veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised,
and Its true source is every instance disclosed, in how malty could
it be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap-
pointments. Excesses are always hilarious ; the gift, which when
nsed in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when
abused, the nrolific source of mischief and of greater or less Injury
to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on
the nature and conscouence of which this Treatise professes to dilate,
are productive of greater severity of misery to the kuman frame,' han any other to which it is subject.
This work contains an accurate and complete account of the
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of
their relative conditions in health and disease. It deservedly
requires the closest attentiou and study, for what subject earl
be
of more importance than the preservation of the health
and of the physical capabilities of which every man should
be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy
victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether aoquired
in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering
Item their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear of up-
plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so
frequently, but erroneously eutertained that these complaints are
beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking
for assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he
forgets that accurate discrimination n ascertaining the causes of
disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva-
riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the
medical man who can show by his possession of the requisite legal
qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his proles_
'"nal pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr.
LA'MERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas
afY. and the groat extent of his practice ter many years is a
Mralltee for his professional experience, which has reference almost
t• the treatment of these diseases.

BEES. .On Tuesday last a swarm of bees alighted
on a lamp-post in the High-street, Stockton, and took
possession of the interior of the hollow of it, without
any preliminary proceedings whatever. During the day
and towards the evening hundreds of people went to
whold this rather singular phenomenon of a lamp-post
being motamorpoosed into a beehive. A part of the
intruders were induced to decamp that night, but a con-
sid,rable number retained possession till the next day,
and many of the str:igglers may still be seen hovering
round their formidable fortress,—Darhaxs ddratestr.
