" We earnestly recommend the cases related by Dr.
Courtenay, to the perusal of such of our readers as are
afflicted with the complaints which the author has made
the subject of these observations. Several instances are
adduced of the recovery of perfect health from states which
were considered hopeless by practitioners of eminent talents
and very extensive experience. We entertain the highest
opinion of Dr. Courtenay's professional skill, and congra-
tulate him on his successful and judicious application to
these severe and often fatal diseases."—European Magazine.
Of whom also may be had,

Dr. Courtenay's last popular Work, a New Edition,
An HISTORICAL and PRACTICAL TREATISE
on SYPHILIS and its CONSEQUENCES.
To which are added, Practical Observations on Diseases
of the Generative System, on Nervous, General, and Local
Debility, and on the pernicious effects of a solitary vice
so unhappily pursued by the youth of both sexes. In the
one it will be found an unfailing source of barrenness, the
other have its ravages fatally developed by a distressing
state of debility, which, if not timely remedied, terminates
in impotency ; these are its remote and ultimate effects,
whilst Consumptions, Less of Muscular Power, and va-
rious other complaints, usually characterise the earlier
stages of these distressing diseases, for the cure of which
the Author has laid down a plan of treatment which,
during his experience of upwards of thirty-five years' ex-
tensive practice, has invariably proved successful. Price 4s.

" Amongst the numerous medical and surgical works
of the day, we consider that written by Dr. Courtenay on
Syphilis and other frequently fatal complaints, to be
worthy of the highest encomiums, and justly deserving
the serious attention of all tho,e persons who may unfor-
tunately happen to be afflicted with the maladies which
form the subject of this very interesting publication. The
luminous views taken of these diseases, together with the
important warnings against excesses, entitle this work to
great praise; and we may add, as a farther recommen-
dation, that it is written with much delicacy and mora-
lity."—lnspector and Literary Review.
