!VIE TREATMENT of STRICTURES of the
URETHRA ; showing why they so often appear In-
curable, when in reality they might be removed by the most
simple means.
By F. B. COURTENAY,

And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for the

Cure'of Strictures of tile Urethra.

" This work is the production of a surgeon whose special
attention has been directed, through a long professional life,
bo the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases
which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his
great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various
kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which
their management is founded. By his systematic management
an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is
attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can
most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable
contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and
ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject
to stricture."—Medical Circular, Dec. Ist, 1858.

TH E FIRE K.IN G.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SlR,—Will you have the kindness to insert the following in
your paper :
" We, the undersigned, believe that Francesco Filliponi,
the man condemned for perjury, has been deceived by Davidi
Robini, the mail who made the declaration before the magis-
trate that Christoforo Buono Core wished to poison Fran
cesco Filliponi, but who afterwards disappeared ; and we beg
to submit to the public the very words of Filliponi himself.
" Giovanni Sartorelli, the confidential friend of the pri-
soner and promoter of the subscription ; Joseph
Trefoldi, the landlord of Filliponi ; Pietro Ver-
. duccini, the secretary of Filliponi ; Giovanni
Borgo, William King, G. C, Young, John Stowell,
James Corrotti, Michele Colla, Thos. Flowers,
Guardi Domenico, De Bianchi Bellinetti, T. C.
Bantasi, De Grussa Giacomo, friend of prisoner ;
Francesco Dessimone, he who recommended those
persons to the inventor to be taught ; Henry Fe-
.
drani, Sontano Francesco, Comanisci Antonio,
W. A. Flarman, John Mombetti, Boosigio Sus-
soni, Daniel Connor, Hubert Edilier, 11, Riley-
street, Chelsea, landlord of Filliponi.
" The accusation Buono Core makes against me is that I
did swear falsely. It is not true that he is the sole invntor
of Fire-proof, for he has learned the composition from F!ede-
rick Smith Gonsalez, who is the inventor, who taught both me
and Buono Core, and he has all his certificates from Italy to
prove it." •
