‘. We earnestly recommend the cases related by Dr.
Conrtenay, to the perusal of such of our readers as are
aflicted 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 Mat on his successful and judicious application to
these severe and often fatal diseases."—European Magazine.
Of whom also may be had,

Dr. Courtenay's la%t 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 nut timely remedied, terminates
in impotency; these are its remote and ultimate effects,
whilst Consumptions, Less of Aluscular 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 tlio'e persons who may unfor-
tunately happen to be afflicted with the maladies which
fofna,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 ta farther recommen
dation, that it is written with much delicacy and more
ity."—lnspector and Literary Review.

SIR WALTER SCOTT'S
MISCELLANEOUS PROSE WORKS.

On the Ist of May will be published, uniform with the
Waverley Novels, and his Poetry, now in course of

publication,
VOLUME FIRST of a new, extended, and
corrected edition of the MISCELLANEOUS
PROSE WORKS of Sir WALTER SCOTT, Bart., to
be continued in monthly volumes, with notes and illustra-
tions. Embellished with portraits, frontispieces, vignette
titles, and maps. The designs of the landscapes from
teal scenes, by J. M. W. Turner, R A.
The great success which has attended the periAical
issues of Sir Walter Scott's Novels and Poetry, leads the
Proprietors to. bring forward in a similar form his Miscel-
laneous Prose Works, which they will endeavour to do so
as equally to deserve the patronage of the public.
It is their purpose to observe the chronological order
with as much strictness as they shall find possible. The
early volumes will contain the Lives of Dryden and Swift,
and the as yet lees widely circulated, though even more
interesting, Biographical Memoirs of Richardson, Fielding,
Smollett, Cumberland, Goldsmith, Johnson, Sterne, Henry
Mackenzie, Walpole, Reeve, Radcliffe, Le Sage, John-
stone, Bage, Charlotte Smith, Sir Ralph Sadler, Dr. Ley-
den, Miss Seward, De Foe, &c. These volumes will be
enriched with Portraits of Dryden, Swift, Smollett, and
Mackenzie, besides vignette embellishments.
Another important portion of this series wiil be the Life
of Napoleon Boniparte, which, besides two authentic
portraits, and engravings after Turner's drawings of the
places most strikingly associated with the history of that
extraordinary man, will have maps of his campaigns,
drawn and engraved expressly for thisspublication.
The text of the Life of Napoleon bad been revised with
great care by Sir Walter Scott himself; two interleaved
copies of the last edition are now in the hands of his
Executor;—the language has been corrected an .I condensed ;
the utmost accuracy has been attended to as to dates; a
most careful comparison has been made with the numerous
biographies that bad appeared since the publication of the
First and Second Editions of the work—and copious
Editorial notes will now be attached, containing brief
notices of the many distinguished men who acted a pro.
minent part in the eventful wars which followed the
French Revolution.

One or more volumes of this collection will comprise
Sir Walter Scott's contributions to the principal periodical
works of his time. It is well known that he was at one
period among the chief supports of the Edinburgh Review,
and at a later one of the Quarterly, and his Essays (now
first collected) from these Journals and others, must ever
form a most interesting feature in his literary, and even in
his personal career.
The Seris will close with the far•famed Tales of a
Grandfather, which will also have the benefit of Mr.
Turner's illustrating pencil.
The Work to be comprised in Twenty-Four Volumes ;
the publication to commence on the Ist of May, 1834,
and to be continued on the Ist day of each month till
completed.

INTRODUCTION TO C OUR T.
Oh ! Warren's born to polish courts and halls,
And give eclat to drawing-rooms and balls;
Without whose aid no foot can e'er presume
To hope for entrance in a well-dressed room:
Blest by whose favour, mortal soles may Lo-a
From dust that has been to be dust no more.
Oh I may thy Blacking shine for length of days,
And gain thee profit, as it gains thee praise!
