feel it to be but due to the public and to themselve- to slat, the ar-
rangements by which they hope to secure the patronage of all c'asses
avisit ors to the Palace. In embarking upon this responsible under,
taking, they feel that their surest expectation of success rests on
thlir henceforth rendering the REFRESFIMENT DEPARTMENT
a splendid and distinctive feature in ,he general attractions. Their
first act, which has the sanction of the directors, will he to throw
Open a ' mike of magnUlc nt saloons in those localities of the
Palace commanding the best views of the erounds, the fountains,
and the exquisite scenery of the surrounding country. It is
cOntld ntly hoped that every class of the community visiting the
Palace will fiiid both their tastes and their purses consulted in the
refreshment arrangements ; for while the cuisine wi'l contain
everything that is recherche in the . best English clubs, ample
accommodation will be afforded to that large class who may

It will be the aktr of the new prUprietors Id' dye the public
as many facilities for enforng the pleasures of the table as th,y
could expect at the best houses of entertainment, either at the
West End or in the City. It is hoped that by a system of manage-
ment at once liberal and economic, the 11,1ders of season tickets and
families will be induced to avail themselves of the opportunities

about to be afforded of dining well and chez ply. The arrangements
for the general public must n,•cessarily be of a very comprehensive
character, and while the proprietors undertake to satisfy the most
relined tastes, they will not neglect the more simple ones. By a
judicious blending of the English with the forel,n forms of the culi-
nary art they hope to make the der artment worthy of that world-
Wide patronage which Is bestowed on the Palace itsel . A novel
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 be given of the completion of the larger arrange
inents.

The essential object
of
sequences resulting from certain habits, irregniarws o_,
and eacese
which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation BsMan-
hood, 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 condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded
the hanith, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is
e tied.
It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are
principles of persanalmanagement which cannot be violated with-
o incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and' regret suc-
ceed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how those penalties
may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed,
and how the evil and its consequences maybe avoided, and, above all,
that thereis scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional
derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.
