ON TRUE and FALSE SPERMATORRHCEA ;
with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors
in relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from De-
bility of the Generative system, or Sexual Vypechrondriasis.

Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD.

" 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 the
last, if he shall detect any other equally 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 Spermatorrhaea and the
various forms of disease which resemble 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. Pickford ;
but the moderate price at which the brochure' is sold, places
it within thq reach of every one interested in the matter."—

The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fear-
ful consequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities,
and excesses, which have produced more misery in Youth,
degradation in Manhood, and premature decay at all stages
of life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to
modern pathologists. Its perusal is particularly recommended
to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condi-
tion, and who are conscious of having hazarded the health,
happiness, and privileges to which every human being is en-
titled.
It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that
there are principles of personal management which cannot be
violated without incurring grievousiees,ei

THE CHANNEL SQUADRON.

A letter from Castletown-Berehaven mentions
the arrival there of the following vessels, composing
the Channel Squadron :--‘• At an early hour on
Monday, the Channel Squadron appeared in the
offing, at Castletown-Bcrehavcn, working up with
a brisk cast wind. The Royal Albert, 121 guns,
bearing the flag of Rear-Admiral of the Red, Sir
Charles 1-1. Fremantle, K.C.8., Capt. Rice, under
canvas up to royals, was the first to enter the har-
bour, and in quick succession was followed by her
Majesty's ship Brunswick, 80, Capt. Ommanney,
her Majesty's ship Renown, 91, Capt. Forbes ; her
Majesty's ship Orion, 91, Capt. D'Eyneourt ; and
her Majesty's ship Skipjack, 2, Lieut. Murray.
These ships had been preceded by her Majesty's
brig Wizard on Saturday, and her Majesty's steam
frigate Advice, on Sunday. On the approach of the
squadron the 'Wizard made sail and re-entered the
harbour with the other ships."

THORLEY'S FOOD FOR CATTLE.-
it is only a short time since this singularly efficacious
article of animal diet first made its appearance ; and already
its celebrity is world-wide. It has been a subject of wonder,
and has puzzled many a brain to explain how this has been
brought about. Yet when we are acquainted with a few facts
concerning the food, our wonder will cease. A few days since,
a gentleman wrote, stating that he had a horse which was a
" perfect bag of bones." He tried all kinds of things to get
the animal into condition, but in vain. He then bought some
of Thorley's food; and he says the effect was wonderful. The
horse rapidly grew fat, and in the course of a few weeks had
gained no leas than 12 stones. Again we find at the late agri-
cultural shows at Birmingham, Cardiff', &e., the animals which
carried off the highest prizes had been partly fed with Thor-
ley's food for cattle. Such facts speak for themselves, and we
are forced to the conclusion that its celebrity arises solely
from its own intrinsic merits, and the great demand for it can
proceed alone from the good opinion and testimony of those
who have tried it. All parties interested in horses and cattle
will do well to apply to 77, New,gate-street, London, for a
pamphlet which is sent post-free.

THE SHIPPING INTEREST.

A numerous and influential meeting of ship-
owners and others interested in shipping was held
on Thursday evening, in the Town-hall, Shields,
to take into consideration the present depressed
state of the shipping interest, and the measures
best to be adopted in reference thereto. The
Mayor took the chair, and explained the object of
the meeting. Several resolutions were passed to
the effect that the existing depression in shipping
has been greatly owing to the unfair competition to
which British shipping is exposed with foreign
countries ; that foreign ships should be placed on
as nearly as possible the same footing in British
ports as that on which British ships are placed in
foreign ports ; and that every effort should be made
for the removal of all those burdens and imposts
which press partially and unnecessarily upon the
mercantile marine of the country.
A meeting of shipowners, covened by the Cham-
ber of Commerce, was held yesterday, at the Com-
mercial Rooms, Bristol, for the purpose of consider-
ing the propriety of influencing the Government to
take such steps as will induce foreign governments
to remove the restrictions which at present press so
unfairly on the interests of the British shipowner.
The chair was taken by M. Whitwell, Esq., and
there was a numerous and influential attenance.
The Chairman adverted at some length to the man-
ner in which the repeal of the navigation laws and
the unfair restrictions which many foreign nations,
instead of actinq in a spirit of reciprocity, imposed
upon British shipping, had acted upon the mercan-
tile marine of this country, and concluded by mov-
ing,—" That the practice which is still main-
tained in many foreign states of imposing differen-
tial dues on shipping is unfair, unjust, and injurious
to all interests, and operates most prejudicially
against British shipping."
Mr. GREEN seconded the motion, which was
adopted, as was another moved by Mr. EVANS,—
" That clause 324 of the 16 and 17 Vie., cap. 107
(1853), which act was passed for the purpose of
regulating the laws relating to shipping, reserves
to her Majesty the power, by an order in council,
to place the ships of foreign countries on the same
footing in British ports as that on which British
ships are placed in the ports of any other country,
and that in the opinion of this meeting the time has
now arrived when that power should be exercised,
or that the Government should be urged to take
such other measures as to them may appear best
calculated to induce foreign nations to act fairly
and in the spirit of free trade towards this country.'
After sonic discussion, the resolution was adopted
ne»t. con.

Mr. J. . HYDE moved the appointment of a depu•
tation to an approaching conference in London on
the question, and gave statistics to show the in-
crease of foreign tonnage in the port of Bristol.
This motion was also adopted.

CARDINAL CULLEN.
The Evening Post—high Roman authority—con-
firms a statement to the effect that his Holiness the
Pope means to confer the purple on Archbishop
Cullen, who is at present a visitor in the Eternal
City. As London, with its two millions and a quar-
ter of Protestants, has a cardinal of its own, why
should not Dublin, the head-quarters of Romanism
in Ireland, be enabled to sport a scarlet hat upon
special occasions? The enthusiastic reception given
to Dr. Wiseman shows that the people can fully
appreciate the contemplated honour in store for the
Papal delegate in Ireland.

yesterday (Thursday), wherein Job Cobley, the celebrated
prizefighter, charged a young "lady" with robbing him of
£6 on the previous night, Mr. Bluck. who appeared for the
young woman, endeavoured to shake Job's evidence by casti-
gating him severely on lus being a member of the ".P.R."
Mr. Mansfield, in sending the case for trial to the sessions,
remarked, " that he could not see, even if a man W5B II

211IN1NG INTELLIGENCE.

(From the Mining Journal of this day.)
The Mining Share Market this week has not
been in a particularly buoyant condition, though in
a few mines a fair amount of purchases have been
made. Some of the tin mines have become flat,
without, as it would seem, any adequate cause ;
but many of the dividend copper shares have been
more in demand, even at advanced rates. One
feature of the week is the number of meetings
held; and as special reports of one or two mines
which have been prominently before the public,
both in the market and in this article, were made
by the best practical agents purposely for these
meetings, we shall refer to them at greater length
than usual, as they are of importance to all the share-
holders, and especially to those ignorant of the
ways of the market, and who are often in these
days of speculation frightened out of their shares
by adverse reports, circulated for the very purpose
of depreciating them, to suit private purposes. The
special reports also show that our remarks have
been based upon good foundations. In rderence to
the lead market, upon which we made a few re-
marks last week, we are informed that the rise is
only for ores containing a large percentage of silver.
Lead which does not yield much silver is rather
lower than otherwise. Silver bars, it is said, have
for some time past, been in great demand, and rising
in price. West Seton are not quite so firm, at 290
to 310; Copper Hill, 80 to 90. Wheal Uny, a
mine to which we constantly called attention when
shares were very low in price, has advanced this
week to 111, 121 per share ; the mine is reported
as looking much better. Wheal Basset have been
dealt in at 205 to 215. South Frances rose to 240,
as we stated last week, upon its becoming known
that a new lode had been cut, and, after a fair
amount of business, leave off 240 to 250 buyers ;
the discovery which is in the 95 cross-cut north,
130 fins. west of Harriet's shaft, is considered the
best discovery in the mine for a long time past.
West Frances and Wheal Grenville have both been
influenced by it, the discovery being towards
them; and the former have advanced to 15, 16,
buyers. Grenville rose to 305., buyers, but leave
off 265. to 28s. Rosewarne have been flat,
al 30. Gonamena, Bto 9, and still enquired for.
Craddock Moor, 25 to 26, buyers. West Caradon,
115 to 120. South Caradon have been in request,
and advanced to 400. East Russell have been
pretty extensively dealt in, and leave off 61, to 7,
with the call of ss. per share paid. It was con-
sidered at the meeting that this call was sufficient
to carry on the mine till the ore ground was laid
open in the 88 ; and might, probably, be the last
required. It was also stated by the committee, that
so many adverse opinions had been circulated for
market purposes, and chiefly emanating from
Tavistock, that they had considered it best to have
the mine inspected by two perfectly independent
agents, and their reports, which confirmed the
company's agent as to the excellent prospects of
this mine, were read to the meeting.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

CAUTION TO LADIES —Eliza Elliott and ilizaheth Hant-
well, two respectably-attired young females, were charged
with stealing a purse containing money from the person of
Mrs. Macgregor, a widow lady residing at Camden-town.
The prosecutrix said that on the previous evening she
was going towards Berkeley-square, and had just got into
Hanover-square, when the two prisoners came up and
politely asked her to direct them to the Colosseum• She

A very alarming collision occurred upon the
Shields and Newcastle branch of the North-Eastern
Railway this forenoon. Shortly after the 11 o'clock
train from Newcastle to Sunderland arid Shields
had left the Felling station, and was passing
through a deep cutting approaching a long tunnel
which passes under the village of Haworth, the
engine broke down, and the guard, knowing that a
goods train was following, called upon the passen-
gars to jump out. A regular scramble then took
place, but before they could all escape the goods
train, which could not be stop-ped in time, ran into
the train, and two passengers in a third-class
carriage were Ten, badly hurt. A first-class
carriage was partially thrown across the up-line
by the collision, and before the passengers
could clamber -up the wall to the embankment,
having- to cross the up line to do so, a cry was
raised that the Shields and Sunderland train was
coming through the tunnel, and in an et moment it
came flying by, the driver being ignorant, appa-
rently, that any accident had pccurred. his engine
carried away the end of the ffrst-class carriage with
a fearful crash. Fortunately, but a moment before
all the passengers had got across the line from their
train, but a stout old woman had to be held against
the wall as the up train was passing, to escape being
dragged under the engine by the footboard, and
crushed to death. The broken carriage having
been removed, the passengers were put into the
train again and passed through the tunnel of the
Pelaw Main station, by the engine of the pods
train, and were sent from thence to their homes.
The greatest alarm existed amongst the passen-
gers ; and they were, no doubt, in great peril.
