yearly examinations which may occur while he is within the
prescribed limits of age. If he is unsuccessful at that exami-
nation, he will be allowed to present himself at any subse-
quent examination until he has exceeded the maximum age.

commissions in the Cavalry or the Line will be given, in the
order of merit, to those who attain the highest places ; the
number of such commissions having been previously announced
to the College. The remainder of those who are successfal
will be equally eligible with those who have passed the usual
examination for direct commissions, but they will have the
priority of appointment over the latter, provided they have
obtained certificates of good conduct- and proficiency in their
military exercises: -
8. Any gentleman cadet desirous of entering the Royal
Artillery or Royal Engineers will be permitted to offer him-
self-as a candidate at any of the competitive examinations for
admission into the Royal Military Academy at Woolwich, held

SELF-PRESERVATION.—A Medical Treatise
on the Functions and Disorders of the Generative System,
and on the cure of Nervous and Physical Debility, resulting
from vicious habits acquired during the critical passage from
youth to Manhood, with practical- observations on the Phy-
siology of Marriage in its social, moral, and physical rela-
tions. To which are added remarks on the wonders of the
Microscope in revealing the hidden mysteries "of Life with%
Life," and its advantages in detecting, by urinary examina-
tion, the cause and effect of every variety of these complaints,
with numerous engravings and cases.

rary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Li-
centiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c.
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 decayhat 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 grievous penalties, and when
wisdom and regret succeed 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. may be avoided, and, above all, that
there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional
derangement to,which the timely aid of science cannot apply
a cure.
