Translated from the German of Dr. PfoIiFORD.

" Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent
practical contributions to German medical literature. This
is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself
to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be th•
last, if he shall detect any other squally flagrant evil which it
may be in his power to correct."--London Medical Gazette.

" The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers
from this distressing malady by translating this little book,
and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified
adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they
know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own
purses. The difference between true Spermatorrheea and the
various forms of disease which resemole it are accurately de-
scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of
the malady."—Medical Circular.

" We have delayed so long upon the contents of the preli-
minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for
any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. I'ickford ;
but the moderate price at which the 'brochure' is sold, places
It within the reach of every one interested in the matter."—

BETTING AT MANCHESTER-TUESDAY.

The Chester Cup has not, up to the present time been suffi-
ciently tempting to induce the large bookmakers to embark in
speculation upon the race, consequently no horse which was
not exactly a "safe one," could at present be invested upon
to win a large stake except a very low figure would be taken.
To-day Longrange was supported for en(' at 25 to 1, without
at all improving his position, that price being offered against
him up to the close. Viatka was nibbled at at 25 to 1, and
although that is her nominal quotation, offers against her are
not by any means plentiful. Birmingham and The Brewer
were in considerable force at 40 to 1, at which price Arsenal
was invested upon. 500 to 15 was taken once about Gaspard.
For the Two Thousand Guineas Stakes Buccaneer and The
Wizard are equal favourites at 4to 1, take fto 2 each. Lu-
pullus remains firm at any advance upon 6to 1. Umpire ap-
pears to be gradually declining, he having no friends in this
market; indeed, we do not remember to have seen him in-
trusted with a guinea these many weeks for either the Two
Thousand Guineas or The Derby. For the latter event 1000
to 20 would have been taken about the King of Diamonds,
against whom 1000 to 25 would have been laid ; not a single
transaction, however, upon this event came under our notice.
Although the weights for the Liverpool Steeplechase h id
received a limited emulation, Xanthne was the only horse
inquired after, but what few books are opened upon this event
are upon a very small scale. In fact, upon the whole we
never remember to have observed less inclination on the part
of the leading members of the ring to gamble than is mani-
fested on their part at present.

(From the Gazette of last evening.)
At the Court at Buckingham Palace, the 23d day of Jan.,
1860, present, the Queen's Most Excellent Majesty in
Council.

Whereas her Majesty was graciously pleased by her
Royal Proclamation, bearing date the thirtieth day of

jesty's service should be paid in the manner thereby
directed to every such able and ordinary seamen, not above
Ole age of forty-five, nor under the age of twenty years, who
should, on or before the fifteenth day of June then follow-
ing, enter themselves to serve in her Majesty's Royal Navy,
either with the captains or lieutenants of her Majesty's
ships, or officers employed in tenders, or at rendezvous of
shore for raising men for the service of the Royal Nary ; and
whereas her Majesty was also graciously pleased by her said
proclamation to declare that all ablebodied landsmen, not
above the age of twenty-five, nor under the age of twenty
years, who should so enter themselves as aforesaid, should
receive the sum of forty shillings each man as her Majesty's
Royal Bounty :
And whereas the time limited for payment of the said
bounties, so far as they relate to able seamen and ordinary
seamen, was, by order in Counoil of the eleventh day of

day of June to the thirty-first day of July last ; and

ties have been sinee reduced to Eight Pounds and Four
Pounds respectively, and lastly to Six Pounds and Three
Pounds respectively ; and the time limited for the pay-
mentof the said last-mentioned reduced Bounties 'was lastly

ordinary seamen, be continued to be paid for some time longer,
but that the same be further reduced to four pounds and
two pounds respectively ; her Majesty, with the advice of
her Privy Council, doth therefore order, and it is hereby
accordingly ordered that the time limited for payment of
Bounties of four pounds to able seamen, and of two pounds
to ordinary seamen, be prolonged and extended from the
let day of February next to tho 31st day of March next,
inclusive; whereof all persons concerned aro to take notice,
and govern themselves accordingly.
