Marriage requires 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 in every instance disclosed, in how many could
it be 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 injury
to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on
the nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate,
are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame,
than any other to which it is subiect.

Tkis work contains an accurate and complete account of' the
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs,
their relative conditions in health and disease. and of
It deservedly
requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can
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 acquired
in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering
from their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear of ap-
plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so
frequently, but erroneously entertained 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 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
marantee for his professional experience, which has reference almost
solely to the treatment of these diseases.

PRINTERS' ALMSROUSES.—The annual meeting of
the subscribers to the printers' almshouse fund took
place last evening, at the Mechanics' Institution, South-
ampton-buildings, R. 'Taylor, Esq., presided.lrss
The report congratulated the subscribers the ogre
which had been made by the Committee in furtherance
of the object in view—the erection of the almshouses. A
piece of ground as a site for the proposed building had
been obtained at Wood-green, near Tottenham, at a total
cost, including legal expenses, of 6031., and it was pro-
posed to lay the first stone in the spring of next year.
The total receipts to the present period amounted, de-
ducting expenses, to 2,174/., which, it was hoped, would
remain with the committee as funded property ; it being
confidently expected that the greater part of the sum
necessary for the erection-I,sool.—might be obtained
from other sources. Amongst the present subscribers
are Lord George Bentinck, M.P., Mr. Thornely, M.P.,
&c. It was intended to fix the age for admission into the
asylum at 60. A variety of statements having been
read, and subscriptions announced, the report was
agreed to. The meeting soon afterwards separated.
FATAL FIRE AT HAMPTON.—On Saturday night,
nt half-past ten o'clock, much alarm was created in the
quiet village of Hampton, Middlesex, by a fire breaking
out at Thames Cottage, the residence of Elisha Hamick,
Esq. The police and a large body of the inhabitants
were soon on the spot, and by their united exertions the
fire
was confined to the room it broke out in, a sleepiug
apartment, which was at the time occupied by William
Edward
. Osmond Placey, a fine youth about seven years
of age, who was burnt to death before assistance could
be rendered., The deceased was on a visit at Mr.
Hamick s, and the servant girl, after putting him to bed,
imprudently left a lighted candle in the room, which is
supposed to have ignited the bed curtains or some' other
light material.

"The Bishop of Gloucester had an interview yesterday
with Lord John Russell.
