" We earnestly recomm. nd 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 observa•ions. Several instances are
adduced of the recovery of perfect health from states which
were considered hopeless by practitioners of emin-nt 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.

other have its savages fatally developed by a distressing
stare of debility, which, if not timely remedied, terminates
in impotency; these are its remote and ultimate effects,
whilst Consumptions, Less of Alu.cular 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
.ears' 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 flora.

VAMINE DISCER NM EN
Twelve Agents of twelve Blacking-makers had met,
Each lauding as best his employer's tine Jet,
When thus they agreed—that, all doubt to ab.lish,
Each man should his boot with his own blacking polish,
Which rang'd in next room, that a dog should be chosen
The bright, st of all to pick out from the dozen,
A boot like a mirror t e dog soon selected,
Though not of the choice that his master expected,
But one that its lustre, transcendently grand,
From Warren's Mart gained—No. :30, the Strand.

'IIIHE ORIGINAL VEGETABLE
I SYRUP of DE ViILNOS continues to be prepared
by Mrs. CANHAAI, the Sole Proprietor, in increased
quantities, at this season, at her Laboratory, No. 52,
Berners-street, Oxtord-street. The experience of up-
wards of ball a century, coup ed with its extensive sale,
has proved this Medicine to t,e the most effectual, yet the
most innocent atterative. It is particularly adapted to the
cure of Scrofula, Scurvy, Scorbutic Palsy, Diseased
Liver, Asthma, Gout, Tianouis, and Ulcers. The most
emaciated constitu ion, or those hurt by mercurial Medi-
cines, may with certainty and safety expect from this spe-
cific what the whole Materta Medica cannot perform with-
out it—a perfect cure. It is a Medicine calculated for all
the impurities of the blood and jaices, and, from its mild-
ness, peculi irly adapted to the female sex, as they may take
it at all times and at all seasons. From a-conviction that
particular cases published have been thought too fte-
quently a glaring insult on the understanding of the public,
owing to the many fallacious ones too frequently set forth,
Mrs. Canham has be;rl unwilling to fall into that error,
notwithstanding she is in possession of innumerable proofs
of cures effected by her Medicine. The Syrup is i.old in
Berners.atrect, as usual, at 13s. a bottle: it may also be
pioeured from most of the respectable Medicine Vender',
in London, and every considerable town in the United
Kingdom. The c.tncentrated, for warm climateg, is solo

THE COLLINGHAM GHOST.—The inhabi-
tants of this lit le vii age have been thrown into a state of
excitetnent and alarm for the last fortnight by a very un-
usual nocturnal visiter. About the hours of nine and ten
at night, (heedful moans are heard to issue from a large
plantation situated on the brow of the hill between Col-
lingliam and Thorpat ch. These noises take a direction
across the fields down to the brook which runs parallel to
the Wetherhy road ; at itvervila loud and distinct groans
issue in various directions marking its route. Ttiough
nothing visible has hitherto been detec'ed, it generally re-
turns to the wood from whence it commenced its pere-
grinations, after about two hours' exercise. Groups tit
countty people have assembled almost every night in ,• rder
to ascertain the nature of these supernatural sounds, but no
light has as yet been thrown on the c .use of so remarkable
a visiter. Some supose it to be the troubled spirit of a hlack-
smith, a notorious poacher, who died at the village a therm
time since, as the sounds were first heard the night after
his funeral. Whatever they may be, it has for the pre-
sent thrown the whole of the neighhourhood into such a
state of terror that few dare venture out after dark. Va-
rious Lughable adventures have been the consequence. A
party of five men on Friday came down from the village of
Boston, determined to surround the ghost. They took their
stations accordingly; presently the dread sound approached:
it seemed to issue tram the ground close to them; nought
however was to be seen ; this was tai great a trial of their
courage, they simultaneously betook to their heels, and
with all speed returned to Boston to report the awful
event. The turnpike keepers at Gillingham hear the
moans regularly, and hardly dare venture out to open
their gates at night; indeed. trav,llers may now pass tub
free of er dark. It is said that a few blood hounds were
sent into the wood some nights ago, but they all quickly
returned with their tails between their legs.—Leeds
Intelligencen

Mr. GROTE said, that as Chairman of the Committee
of Privileges, now sitting, he had been requested to submit
A motion for the addition of one Member to the present
:lumber of the body. It would be recollected, that when
the Hon, and Learned Member for Dublin (Mr. O'Con-
nell) moved for the appointment of the Committee, he not
only abstained from inserting his own name in the list,
!although it had been the almost. invariable practice that
the mover should take the chair; but, from peculiar feel-
in9s of delicacy, he had omitted all who were in any
way, whether publicly or privately, connected with the
Hon. Member for Tipperary (Mr. Shell). Immediately
they entered upon their inquiry, the Committee arrived at
a strong conviction that they should not be able to prose-
cute it to their own satisfaction, or with a certainty of
'Laing entire justice to the Hon. Member for Tipperary,
unless some Member were added to the Committee in
whom he could implicitly confide, and by whose advice
he was willing at all times to be guided. It W-18, there-
fore, proposed that the name of Mr. O'Connell should be
added to the list of the Committee. He (Mr. Grote)
had only farther to state, that this motion emanated solely
and exclusively from the unanimous wish of the Com-
mittee, and that the Hon. Member for Tipperary bad
P.Vitheea-liggested nor encouraged it.

Lord J. RUSSELL wished the motion to be made
tomorrow. In itself it seemed a very extraordinary
propo,ition, after what had already passed upon the sub.
j,ct, and after the formation of the Committee without
the Hon. and Learned Member for Dublin, that it should
nnw b? proposed to insert his name, without uiving any
similar advantage to the other side. He (Lord J. Russell)
did not say that he was prepared to oppose the motion,
but be trusted that a day's notice would be given to afford

time for consideration.
11r. GROTE was quite ready to defer the motion till
to-morrow. He begged again to say that it proceeded
from the unanimous wish of the Committee, and from not
other quarter.
Mr. FERGUS O'CONNER hoped that the proceed-
ings of the Committee would be stayed'until the point was
decided. We understood him to add, that the question
was one of a most ridiculous nature to be submitted to
the solemn aditofication of a Committee.

The SPEAKER remind •d the Hon. Member that it
would not be necessary to put any restraint upon the
Committee. The Hon. Member for London bad stated
that it was the unanimous oeinion of the Committee that
justice could not be done, and the inquiry duly proseruted,
unless the additional Member were appointed. There-
fore, whether the present question wire or were not post-
poned, reliance might safely be placed in the Committee
either as to the course or speed of its proceedings.—
(Hear, hear.)
Mr. FINN alluded to the appointment of Colonel
Evans, and of two other Members without any com-
munication with the Han. Member for the city of Dublin.
Mr. G. ROBINSON re-enforced what had been sug-
gested by the Speaker.
A A EMBER under the gallery said, that in the Com-
mittee the question had not been put by the Chairman,
so that the wish of the body upon the question bad not
been formally taken. If a Member were named on the
part of Mr. Sheil, it might be just also that another
should he added on nehalf of Mr. Hill.—(Hear.)
Mr. WARBURTON observed, that the Member pro-
posen to be added was to act somewhat in the capacity of
nominee. f the question hid not been formally put.
there was not a single dissentient voice to the prop coition.
that the present motion should be made. It was the
anxious desire of the Cotnnii tee that the Hon. Member
for Tipperary should have some friend present during the
ex mination of the witnesses upon whom he could rely,
and lie trusted that the House would not object to the ap-
pointment of the Hon. and Learned Member for I )üblin.

The SPEAKER asked whether the motion would be
pres.ed to-nay ?
Mr. GROTE thought he had no choice put to post-
pone it till to-morrow if that were the wish of the Noble
Lord.

Lord JOHN RUSSELL did not know that to-mor-
morrow any resi,.tar.ce would he made to the motion : hut
as it was somewhat extraordin.ry, it reluited considera-
tion. To_nmorrow, slsn, theme might be a tedier.attendance.
As the Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Grote) c.me armed wi:h
the unanimous wish of the Committee, he could not anti-
cipate that there would be any resistance to-morrow.

Air. WARBURTON added that the rf•ct would be
;o suspend the pr.,e.edmes of the Committee for one day.

SHAW said the Committee had been unanimous,
although the question was not reeularly put from the
chair. He also alluded to an obj.ction taken by the Hon.
Member for Tipperary, even to def-rring the present mo-
tion from the early to the later sitting of the House.
Mr. H. GRATTAN expressed some surprise at the
motion, looking at the names already on the Committee,
and observed that all the proceedings were so stricly
seere,, that no other Member was allowed to he present.
Mr. O'CONNELL might be permitted just to say that
the Committee had done him the honour to send for

to be present at their proceedings ; hut that when he came
inm toe riom, he had stated his extreme unwillingness to
remain there in the doulryful capacity of adviser, when he
had no right to take part in the proceedings as a Member
of the Committee. He had, therefore, totally declined
attending until the House had decided the point now in
.•

questiqn,
Sir R. PEEL slid that the opinion that the Hon. Member
should belong to the Committee was unanimous. The
charge personally aff,•cted a Member of the House, and it
was considered very important that he shi uld have some-
body present who was possessed of his entire confidence.
He had thought that the individual who moved for the
Committee would have ben a member of it, and would have
acted in that capacity, and not mere), as amicus curie It
was necessary that the witness, a should be cross-examined,

and it wculd very much paralyse the abillies and mar the
tfforts of any man who undertook this tisk, if, not being a
Ali-tuber of the Committee, he was obliged to put his
questions in writing, or at least through the medium of a
third person.--(Hear, hear.) He hoped that no resist-
ance would be m ide to deciding upon the motion now.
Lord J. RUSSELL was anxious chiefly for a little time
for considereion, and certainly did nut mean to oppose

any obstacle to the choice of the Hon. Al.inber for Dublin,
It was not to be forgotten, howev r, that the public cha.
_ _ .

racier and private honour of the Member for Hull were
likewise involved.—(Ch ers.) It would hardly be fiat
that the Hon. and Learned Member for Dublin should

h ,ve the opportunity of putting all his questions with the
ability he was known to possess, in favour of his friend,
and that no other Member should be present for the same
purpose on behalt of the Member for Hull.
Sir IL PEEL entered into the feelings of the Noble
Von!, but begged to remark that the Hun. Member for
Hull was not a party accused.
After a single observation front the Member under the
gallery who had before spoken, the question was put—
" That Mr. O'Connell be a membet of the Committee,"
and it was carried.

Mr. IIUNIE bean to state his wish to be exvu,ed from
attending the Canmittee, but suddenly resumed his sear,
and the subject was dropp-d.
On the motion of Mr. GROTE some returns regarding
woes of timber imported were ordered.
S r W. FOLKES moved for a return of rules Nisi,
made absolute or dischitged, in the Courts of Westminster
since the year 1831.—Ordered
