QTERILITY.—Whatever is unproductive is with-
k 7 out intrinsic value. Man and his Maker alike condemn that
which " yields is fruit," and we find large tracts of land abandoned
for the same reason thlt caused the barren fig tree to be cursed.
This curse clings to Sterility in erery shape ; it brings upoi the earth
famine. But the malediction breathes loudest and deepest into the
ear •1 those of the human race who remain childless in a community
which must altogether fail, without continual additions. Not only
do such encounter the silent scorn or pity of their fellow creatures,
but their own hearts condemn them ; wealth brings no consolation
to the wifele... hogora —brines no return for the childless home.
It is a remarkable fact that the unproductiveness of soil and
species arises from similarity of calve. Some lands are
the produce of vitiated strata that yields an offspring es
unhealthy as itself. Others nurture in their juices the poison of
minerals, which form the foe to vegetation. Others again lose value
by being too early worked, before they are fit for cultivation, Some
soils, originally fertile, become barren by excess of tillage; others
are spoiled by unwholesome manures ; and others, again, by the
want of perseverance and nerve In the husbandman. Mark the an: -
logy ! Man also is too often vitiated by the parent from whom lie
springs. Man is too often ruined by the indiscriminate use of mine-
rals, such as mercury, &c. Man also tries his constitution too ear,y,
and ,Ivertasks it too late. Man, by unwholesome contact can also in-
fect his f-ame and, to render the comparison complete, man can
render a naturally vital constitution unproductive through ignorance
of his orga dzation and diffidence in his powers. Nor does the analogy
cease here. The detriments to cultivation above detailed have diem
recently se entirely overcome by modern improvement in agricul-
ture, that farmers are now enabled to produce crops almost from
stone itself; and, in like manner, Sterility in the human race is now
removable through the profound discoveries lit physic which enlighten
the present age. In testimony of this, a volume has recently been
produced which fills the heart with hope and is calculated to remove
sterility altogether. It is from the pen of Messrs. J. L. CURTIS
AND CO., consulting Surgeons, 7, Frith•street, So. CURTIS
London, and bears the title of " MANHOOD: The Causes of its
Premature Decline, with Plaia Directions for its Perfect Re-
storation ;" and is sent by W. STRANGE, bookseller, 21, rater-
noster-row,London, post-paid, in, a sealed envelope, by initial or to
any address, for 2s. Gd. in postage stamps, secure from observation.

It is illustrated by Three Explanatory Engravings.
PART 111. treats of the diseases resulting from infection, either in

PART IV. treats of the Prevention of Disease by a simple ap-
plication, by which the danger of infection is obviated. Its action
is simple but sure. It acts with the virus chemically, and destroys
its power on the system. This important pert of the Work should
be read by every Young Man entering into life.
Pare Y. is devoted to the consideration of marriage, aid its
Duties. The causes of unproductive union are also considered, and

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 than ambition. No man is exempt from
its influence, sr 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 does not take plac, however, this passion, this
fervour, this golden 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 to 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, er 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 et important
ends. The wretched condition of such a being must subsequently be
beyond measure deplorable 1 Loving and beloved, he entails the
mast 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
SELF-PRESERVATION,
illustrated by forty coloured engravings on the anatomy. physiology,
and diseases of the reproductive organs ; with practical observa-
tions on the secret infirmities of youth and maturity, resulting from
solitary habits,

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- ,
tanned the highest medical honours, is a guarantee for his profes-
sional experience, which has reference almost solely to the treat-
ment of these diseases.
REVINW OF Till VICIR.
La'Mert on the Infirmities of Youth and Maturity.—" There are
scenes is the drama of life which arc 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 us
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
propriety. A father may trust it in the hands of his boy. By un
taught innocence the book is not, of course, needed ; but wherever
laxity has prevailed, the tender yet awful voice breathing in these
pages is likely to prove as strikingly beneficial as the admonitions of
I a homily blended with the practical advice of a writer on medicine."
