CRYSTAL PALACE —Entire re-organics ition
of the Refreshment pep irtment.—Messrs. SAWYER and
STRANGE, of thel.ond in, Fleet- ste et,), eying taken thisdepartment,
feel it to be but due to the public and to themselve- to state the ar-
rangements by which they hope to secure the patronage of all ea SSW
of visitors to the Palace: In embarking upon this responsible under-
taking, thdy feel that their surest expectation of success rests on
their henceforsh rendering the R lITMENT
a splepdid and distinctive feature in he generalAttTections. Their
first act, which 'hal the sanction of the direciors, wilt be te throw
Open a Series of magnific ty saloons in those localities 'of the.
Palace commanding the-best views of the troutal4,• the founiaius,.
and the exquisite scenery of the surrounding country. It is
4:osidd'utly hoped thae..avery clasS orthe' community yis.ctins the
•
'Palate will' find both their tastes and their puris.s crinstiTted in the
reireshment arrangements ; for while the cuisine .wi 1 contain
everything that is recta, rche in the be.st Enelish clubs, ample
accommodation will he afforded to that large class who may
wish to study e enemy, and a, the same time seek corn n t.
It will be the aim of the new proprietors to give the nubile
as many facilities for enjorng the p'easnres of the table as thry
could mice' at the hest lesuses ef entertainm nt, either at the
West Krid or in the City. it is hoped that by a syst.m of manage-
ment at once liberal and economic, the h' lders of season tickets and
families will be induced to avail tbemse'ves of the opeortenities
about to be afforded of dining well and ,he ply. The arranvements
•
for the general public must n-cessartly be of a very comprehensive
character, and while the proprietors undertake to satisfy the most
refined tastes, they will not r -elect the more sntre oats. Ily
judicious blendinr of the English with the brel ,n forms of the culi-
nary art they hope to make the de artment worthy of that world-
wide patronage which is testowed on the Palace itsei . A nor 1
feature will consist in the construction of a suite of smoking rooms,
which will be of easy access from the refreshment 'saloons. The
refreshments are now supplied by the new proprietors, hut imme-
diate notice will he given of the completion 01 the larger arrange
ments.

The essential object of this treatise is to point ont the ream, con-
sequences resulting from certain habits, irreolanties, and exc'es,a
perhaps, any
hieh have produced more misery in ti oath, degradation in Man,
hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than,
other cla,s of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is
particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret d
their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazar,deoi
the h.alth. happiness, and privileges to which every
hhuman beingB

It Is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are
principles of personal management which cannot Le violated with-
o it incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret sac-
.,cl the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how those penalties
map be mitigated, how the.sting of their bitterness may he remove,!,
and bow the evil and its consequences maybe avoided, and, above all,
that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional
derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot imply a cure.
