THORLEY'S FOOD FOR CATTLE.---Every
person having an interest in domestic or farm animals
should obtain a supply of this celebrated and economical
food, which will prove invaluable during the approaching
season. For keeping horses in good condition it is unequal-
led. Pigs fatten with surprising rapidity upon it, and their
flesh increases in flavour and value. Cowkeepers will find
great advantage in the increased quantity and improved qua-
lity of the milk during its use. All animals are benefited by
it. A pamphlet on this interesting subject, accompanied by
Testimonials from the principal Nobility, Gentry, and Agri-
culturists, forwarded on application. In casks containing
448 feeds (measures enclosed\ price 505., carriage paid to any
Railway Station in the United Kingdom. Post-office orders
payable to Joseph Thorley, 77. Newgate-street, London.
N.B.—The public arecautioned against being imposed upon
by worthless imitations.

ON MEDICAL GALVANISM IN THE TREATMENT OF
NERVOUS DEBILITY, ORGANIC WEAKNESS, &c.
Just published. price is., post free, 13 stamps,
SELF-PRESERVATION A Medical Treatise
on NERVOUS DEBILITY and FUNCTIONAL
WEAKNESS, more particularly in reference to the INFIR-
MITIES and DISORDERS of the GENERATIVE SYSTEM;
tracing the Origin of these distressing afflictions to causes
which vitiate the very fountains of Life and prematurely de-
stroy the vigour of Manhood. With Practical Observations
on the Cure of these Diseases, and on the extraordinary re-
storative power of LOCAL GALVANISM in Spermatorrhcea,
Impotence, and Sterility, in which cases it is applied without
pain or danger, and is frequently successful without the aid
of medicine.
BY SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D.,
37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON,
Registered Licentiate of the London Society of Apothecaries,
Doctor of Medicine of the University of Erlangen, Honorary
*Member of the London Hospital Medical Society. &c.
An erroneous impression exists that public announcements
on these disorders emanate only from unqualified persons,
but as the new Medical Act provides that none but registered
practitioners shall assume any medical title, those that are
legally qualified can readily be distinguished—a point of °Teat
importance in cases where secrecy, confidence, and skill are
equally requisite.
In the new edition of Self-Preservation,' facts
of para
mount utility are brought tog-ether—facts appealing to the
prudence of all who are suffering from affections which in-
volve the enfeeblement and ultimate loss of those powers
without which man forfeits the dignity of nature, and sinks to
the most pitiable depths of physical and moral degradation.
In cases where the vital essences have been weakened by the
influences of tropical climates, by pernicious habits, indiscri-
minate excesses, improper diet, hardship, or by injudicious
treatment, the means of cure adopted by the author, in con-
junction with the application of Local Galvanism, have gene-
rally been found successful, even in cases where recovery had
been pronounced impossible.
