The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful can-
;evacuees resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and (moues,
etich have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man-
nod, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, any
• ther class of disease known to modern pathologist(. Its perusal le
,articniarly recommended to persons en'ertaining secret doubts of
their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded
the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is
entitled.

it is absolutely necessary that all men should know, that there are
ginciples of personal management which cannot be violated withoui
incurring grievous penalties. and when wisdom and regret succeed
the heyday of inconsiderate self-Indulgence, how these penalties
•i Ay be mitigated, hr the sting of their bitterness may be removed,
.n 1 how the evil and its consequences may he avoided. and above all,
that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional
erangeinent to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.
.ie Author has for a series of years been engaged in an extensive
actlce in the treatment of those delicate complaints, which have
• lortunately been. too generally confided tc the care of ignoreat

MELBOURNE, OCT. :U.
The Ben Nevis, one of the White Star line, sailed
on the 18th inst. As she is not a fast sailer, and
the Champion of the Seas is appointed to sail on
the 25th, I did not think it worth while to write
by the former, especially as I had written so re-
cently by the Donald McKay.
The commercial clasSes have certainly had their
time Of trial, and if seems almost out of the power
even of the steady increase in the quantity of gold
(no less than 65,000 ounces in the week ending
the 13th of October)- to -reanimate public confi-
demo; It no* seems more than prObable that the
land jobbers' turn is come, and. a. " land panic"
seems almost inevitable. The first effect of the
discovery of gold was to depress the demand for
and price of land in and near Melbourne. There
was a rush to-the diggings. The town was aban-
doned, and, as there was a considerable interval
before people came into the colony, it seemed to
the short-sighted that " Melbourne was ruined."
In one instance a property of about 30 acres, about
two miles from Melbourne, was sold for 1,2001.,
with a good house upon it. In the hands of a
skilful jobber,- cut up into small "lots to suit pur-
chasers," it would probably have realised 30,0001..
in 1853, and even now it is valued at 8,0001. An
other property of 40 acres in thesame neighbour-
hood, which &anged 'hands at 300/. some few years
ago, was sold in 1852 for 4,000/. ; and again a few
months later for 12,000/. It w,euld have realised
30,000/. or 40,000/. at the highest time, and al-
though large sums have been since expended on it
in improvements, I doubt whether it would now
sell for 12,0001.
The October Government land sale is just over,
and the result has greatly alarmed the jobbers.
Town land at North Melbourne, near an elevated
and healthy spot called the " Flagstaff-hill," was
put up in lots of about a quarter of an acre at the
upset price of 300/. per acre. Such of the lotsas were
sold brought a pound or two above the upset price,
and for many lots there was no bid, and they were
withdrawn. Eighteen months ago land in that spot
sold at the Government sale at the rate of about
3,0001. per acre, and I have been told that some
private sales—the seller tempting the buyer by
"liberal terms"—in plain English, part credit—of
land in the same locality yielded 18 times as much
per acre as the present upset price. I know some
land about four miles and a half from Melbo4rne,
which, in " lots to suit purchasers" with terms libe-
ral," sold, in 1853 or early in 1854, at 4501. or 500/.
per acre. The same land would scarcely now bring
50/. per acre, and even that price is the result of a
lingering delusion.
In this matter a sort of theory had grown up
the low prices for anything were utterly inconsis-
tent with our large supply of gold. It was asserted
in the Council that there cauld be no more insol-
vency. 1 believe the first to discover the mistake
were the importers of boots and shoes. They dis-
covered that, having brought into the colony four
or five times as many as people could wear, not
even 10,000,000 ounces of gold could prevent a glut
and mere nominal prices. Then followed the im-
porters of "revolvers." Having provided for some-
thing like the arming, or double-arming; of all our
women and children as well as our men, they were
puzzled to find that the Melbourne price was below
the London price, although 65,000 oz. came down
last week. In this way down tumbled article after
article—straw bonnets, lucifer matches, rum sperm
candles, Cork butter—everything except food, and
its turn is to come.
The fi:c; is, that the efficient demand for land for
use, as distinct from speculation or anticipated use,
is more than satiated. I have already, in a former
letter, pointed out in what manner Melbourne and
the smaller towns of the colony may be made to
contain many times their present population with-
out any extension of their present boundaries—
namely, by building on vacant spaces, and replacing
the many single-storey, or mere ground- floor houses,
by three and four storey dwellings and warehouses.
This process, called into use by the high price of
town land, is nove going on to a large extent. A
very large number of the purchases at the highest
prices were partly on credit, and properties are
now selling every day for less than the mortgage
money. Excepting town lands in a few favoured
streets of business, and villa lands in choice situa-
tions, for which people will pay " fancy prices," I
see no reason why the ordinary run of suburban
land as well as country land should not get down
to something like what may be called an agricul-
tural price ; that is, inasmuch as, if us3d at all,
they must be used for cultivation, the measure of
their value is what the cultivator can afford,to pay.
The Land Department here, which seems to have
seen about an inch beyond its nose, has favoured
the popular delusion by subdividing land into in-
finitesimal portions, creating townships where they
are not wanted, limiting the quantity exposed for
sale for the purpose of showing a high rate per acre.
Having thus fed the demand by instalments, as it
were, the accumulated supply now exceeds the
effective demand, and hence the result of the Oc
sales.

EXTENSIVE ISSUE OF PAPER MONEY

IN RUSSIA.

A few days ago we announced an Imperial ukase
as having been issued at St. Petersburg, authoris-
ing the issue of paper money to the extent of
54,000,000 of silver roubles ; the date of the ukase
it; 12th January, and the text runs as follows :

- -
" The notes of the Imperial Treasury of the 12th, 18th,
14th, 15th, 16tb, 17th, 18th, and 19th series, which were
emit:ed in conformity with the Imperial ukases of
March 10th and June 30th, 1848, ought to be called in
in 1856. In the enactment respecting these Imperial
treasury notes, the Government reserved to itself in
section 6 the right of renewing such notes as should
not have been paid in to Government offices in the
meantime, if this should be found desirable for the cir-
culation. For this reason, and en account of the extra-
ordinary outgoings caused by existing circumstances,
we have considered it neeecsary, in harmony with
the proposal of the Minister of Finance, which has been
examined by the Council of the Empire, to issuenew notes
in the place of the series mentioned above, and, in addi-
tion, to order the emission of 10 new series of Imperial
Treasury notes. We, therefore, order the issue of 18 new
series of Imperial Treasury notes, from xxxvii, up to
inclusive, each to the amount of 3,000,000 of silver rou-
bles (54,000,000 altogether), of which 8,000,000 will take
the place of those issued in 1848, and 10,000,000 will go
to recruit the Imperial Treasury. It is at the same time
entrusted to the Minister of Finance to apply to us for
special ukases from time to time for the gradual issue
of these series in proportion as necesoity may call for
them."

During the early part of this year, owing to the
enormous price of flour (401. to 501. per ton), there
was really a good demand for farms. This the
Land-ofliee ought to have met. But it was wedded
to the small allotment and high-rate system, and
neglected the golden opportunity of selling a large
quantity of country land until too late. There is
now no confidence in the maintenance of the price
of flour and wheat. Oats are very low. Hay is
moderate, and the demand for farming land has,
to a certain extent, passed away.
Reduced rents, a declining price of land, food at
a moderate price, the supply of gold increasing,
and trade reviving, aro features favourable to the
prospects of immigrants, and all these elements in
our condition now prevail.
The mineral resources of this colony are continu-
ally receiving fresh illustration and development.
There has been a great " rush" to Fiery Creek, and
the surface diggings are said to be yielding well.
Now diggings, a rich quartz vein, have been dis-
covered about 25 miles from Geelong. Their exact
position is kept " dark" by the discoverers until
they can get their claims marked out by the Com-
missioners according to regulations. The speci-
mens exhibited are very rich in gold, and will, if
the whole vein is equally rich, pay well for
crushing.
The general revenue for the quarter has increased
14,9871. Os. 2d., and for the year 89,335U85.10d.,
but the land revenue has fallen off on the quarter
317,437/. 2s. 3d., and ou the year 715,443/.43.8d.,
making the actual decrease on the quarter
302,4471.135. ld., and on the year 626,1071.55.10 d.
But the expenditure has been economised, and,
thanks to the resolution of the Council against ad-
ditional taxation, I believe the Governor will be
able to lay a more flourishing account of our finan-
cial condition before the Council when he calls
them together.

The heads of revenue for the years 1854 and
1855, ending the 30th of September, are as
follows :
Gold revenue (not ex- 1854. 1855.

We have received copies of our new constitution,
but not the official copies. They must await the
slow processes of the Colonial-office. As soon as
we get it we shall begin amending it, and fortu-
nately it does contain Biackstone's vis medicatrix in
express terms.
Such of your readers as occasionally see the Mel-
bourne papers must be amused by the column of
" Missing friends." Here is a specimen of one.
As the celebrated Anthony Collins, I believe, died
• unmarried, the wandering Anthony cannot be a
descendant of that philosopher :

In consequence of the arrival of the James
Baines in 77 days, with the August mails, the
Champion of the Seas will be detained until to-
morrow, to enable merchants to answer their Au-
gust letters. The mail will close to-day, and the
ship will sail at daylight in the morning.
