REMARKS AND CASES.

A N HISTORICAL "and PRACTICAL
TREATISE on SYPHILIS, its Consequences, on Stric-
tures, Eruptions, Nodes, and Nocturnal Pains, so frequently mis-
taken for Rheumatism. These subjects are illustrated by a variety
of highly interesting cases, together with the miseries of a secret
vice, so long and so unhappily pursued by the youth of both sexes.
In the one it will be found an unfailing source of barrenness, in
the other have its ravages fatally developed by a distressing state
of debility which, if not timely remedied, terminates in impotency
these are its remote and ultimate effects ; whilst Consumption,
Loss of Muscular Power, and various other complaints, usually
characterise the earlier stages of these distressing diseases, for the
Cure of which the Author has laid down a plan of treatment which,
during' his experience of upwards of thirty-five years' extensive
practice, has invariably proved suecesiful; with concluding remarks
on the evils resulting from attempts at self cure.

-0 LAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS•
kffi--The decided superiority of this medicine over every other
hitherto offered to public notice, for the cure of those dreadfully
painful diseases, Gout, Rheumatic Gout, Rheumatism, Lumbago,
&c., is so fully manifested by a rapidly increasing sale, and the testi-
mony of thousands in every rank of life, that these who are aware
of the existence of such a'remedy, and have not availed themselves
of trying its efficacy, cannot truly be objects of sympathy. The
testimonials of the astonishing effects of this medicine are univer-
sally accompanied by the fact, that no inconvenience
of any sort
after's its administration, but that the patient, without feeling the
operation of the medicine, is universally left in a stronger and better
state of health than experienced previous to being afflicted with this
disease-. and in all cases of acute suffering, great relief is expe-
rienced in a few hours, and a cure is generally effected in two or
three days.
This i;aluable discovery is sold by Thomas Prout, '229, Strand,
London ; and by his appointment, by all 111z1icine Venders in the
Kingdom.
Price 2s. 9d. per box.—Ask for Blair's Gout and Rheumatic

ROYAL GEOGRAPHICAL SOCIETY.

The first .meeting of this Society was held at its rooms in
Regent-street yesterday evening, Sir JOHN BARROW, Pre-
sident, in the Chair. Great interest was excited on account
of its being known amongst the members that Captain Back
would be present, and that a paper•would be read from him
containing an account of his late expedition, undertaken in
Search of Captain Ross. The large room in which the meet-
ings are held was crowded to excess, and at least 400 gen-
tlemen were present. '
Captain MACONOCHIE, the Secretary, read the minutes
of the last meeting, including a paper from Dr. Hancock
on the changes which have taken place in the climate,
tides, &c. in Guiana during the last twenty years. He also
announced that a great variety of donations had been re-
ceived during the recess, consisting, of presents of books
from the Geological and Royal Asiatic Societies. Depot de
la Marine de France, Astronomical Society, Sir James Bar-
row, Mi. BrockedOn, Lieutenant Holman, Sce. The Rev.
J. P. Lee, one of the Masters at Rugby School, was elected
a Fellow-; and, at the recommendation of the Council, the
Swedish Consul at Florence was admitted a Corresponding
Member of the Society.
Captain MACONOCHIE, previous to reading the paper of
Captain Back, gave a cursory description of the objects
and course which that gentleman had undertaken in his
journey, the direction of which was pointed out on a map
of a large 'size, drawn out for the purpose. It appeared
that the extent of his journey had been 1,200 miles up
the Slave Lake and Mackenzie River, and that he had
discovered upwards of 90 falls during his course ; the
banks in some places • being of a native red granite, and
others of a slate-coloured grey stone, of 50 and 60 feet
perpendicular height. The paper minutely described the
appearance of the land on the sides of the river, and the
abundance of tributary streams falling into
.it. He also
discovered a cataract 1,000 feet high, of from 150 to 200
feet wide, at the mouth of the Slave Lake, in which were
many small pointed islands forming groups. About 400
miles from this, four islands were visible, and the lake was
joined by another large stream. The shores of the lake,
citber from the crushing of the ice, or the rolling of the
bolders, produced a coast of pudding-stone to a consider-
able distance. In a contracted part of- the channel, the
water was said by the Esquimaux never to freeze, which

Swiety's.second concert took place last night in the
Hancv3r-square rooms. The performances afford no room
for particular remark. As usual, they displayed consider-
able talent on the part of the young composers ; but the
pieces were by no means of a quality sufficient to furnish a
whole evening's entertainment. To write a great symphony
is an undertaking which has been successfuly achieved by
a very few only of the most illustrious masters. It must
be the production of the highest genius, matured by severe
study and long experience. Young composers should write
symphonies in abundance as exercises, hut should be very
slow to bring them before the public. We wish well to this
Society, and think it may be turned to good account. , Its
object—that of bringing 'before the public the compositions
'of its members—is quite a legitimate one ; but it would be
answered more effectually by ming,lin;, those compositions
with the classical works of the great masters. During last
evening our cars thirsted for a few sounds of Mozart or
Beethoven. Had we been refreshed with them we should
have listened with greater complacency to the music we
were entertained with. We were much pleased with the
piano-forte playing of young Litolff, a favourite pupil of
Moschellcs. His strength of hand, smoothness and even-
ness of tone, and clearnsss of articulation, would have
been well employed on a concerto of Mozart, Hummel, or
his master, but were thrown away ou a crude composition
of his own. It is a very common, but a great mistake in
instrumental performers, to think that, as soon as they
have acquired a command of their instrument, the power
of composition comes as a matter of course, and hence
many an excellent performer, who might delight his audi-
ence by playing good music,' wearies them to death by in-
sisting on playing his own music. M. Litolff appears to
have some talent for composition. Let him cultivate it as-
siduously ; but let him not produce the fruits of his labours
before they are ripe—an advice which, in all friendship and
good will, we would tender to other members of this So-
ciety, whose long and laboured compositions form too large
a portion of its concerts.

THE BIUSSOS wan 400 MEN.
" Isaac Parker has just arrived from Texas, bringing the
intelligence that General Cos has landed near the mouth of
the Brasses with 400 men, with the intention of joining the
700 federal troops stationed at San Antonio de _flexor, and
marching upon the people of Texas. He has issued his Pro-
clamation, declaring that he will collect the revenue, disarm
the citizens, establish a military Government, and confiscate
the property of the rebellious.' Messrs. Johnson and Baker
bore the express from San Felipe to Nacogdoches. Stephen
S. Austin has written to several-citizens of Nacogdoches, that
a resort to arms is inevitable.
"They have hOisv7d a flag with the Constitution of 1824'
inscribed on it, and 200 freemen gathered around it, deter-
mined to stand or fall with it.
We subjoin the following letter
,from General Houston to
the gentlemen who brought the intell•genec.
San Agostino, Texas, Oct. 5, 1835.

DEMI SIR,—At your request I hand you a memorandum,
that you may be informed of cur situation. War in defence of
our Rights, our Oaths, and our Constitutions is inevitable in

Texas.
Volunteers from the United States would join their
brethren in this section, they will receive -liberal bounties of
land. We have millions of acres of our best lands unchesen
and unappropriated.
Let each man come with a good rifle and one hundred
rounds of ammunition, and come soon. _ .

Our war-cry is " Liberty or death !" Our principles are to
(port the Constitution, and down with the Usurper !—Your

" We bare no time to make comments. The people of the
United States will respond to the call of their brethren in

" Those gentlemen friendly to the rights of free and Re-
publican Governments are requested to meet at the Red River
EN.ehange, on this evening, at half-past seven o'clock, to take
into consideration the situation of their fellow-countrymen in
Teas.

" Nacogdoches, Oet. 7, 1835."
(From the ./17cm, Orleans True American of the 12th.)
TEXAS.
By the politeness of our friend Crptain Ramarre, we have.
been put in possession of the intelligence to be found in
our paper to-day from Texas. As we anticipated—the
first hostile movement, however insignificant, on the part of
the Mexicans, has been the signal of war. It appears:that
General Cos has landed troops, arms, and ammunition at Co-
peno, with a view of forcing the Tc'xonians to submission.
The effect of this rAovement has been electric—all Texas
is up and in arms, and peace is no mere ta:lked -of. A ge-
neral rendezvous has been fixed upon, and every man is
preparing for battle. Before the Convention' assembles it
is probable that blood will have been shed, and .that that
Lodv trill declare the independence of Texas, and assume
authority until that independence is achieved.
It seems that. Cos has had the impudence, in the name
of Santa Ana, to demand the delivery to him of several
distinguished citizens of Texas.

" TO TILE PEOPLE OP TOE JURISDICTION OF COLUMBIA.
War is our only resource; war is upon us ;" so says the
Committee of Austin; "and the fact is established beyond a
doubt. Heretofore a difference of opinion has unfortunately
existed among us; now the evidence is so convincing, that an
honest difference of opinion can no longer exist. Your Com-
mittee, therefore, have no hesitancy in declaring, that he who
says there is no just =Se to apprehend danger, and recom-
mends a supine course, is a traitor, and as such should be
punished. Fellow Citizens 1 let not a difference cause or
continue an estrangement. \Ve have a common cause, a
common interest, and a common foe, and we should be united.
General Cos bee just landed at Copeno with 400 soldiers and
munitions of war. His object is to unite with the forces at
San. Antonio, and _our policy is to intercept him before the
union takes place ; by so doing:we will fall upon the enemy
divided, and if we capture the forces of Cos we will gain arms
and munitions of war, and the news of Cos's defeat will be
the signal for the surrender of San Antonio into our hands ;
in addition to this it is better that we should carry the war into
the enemy's country, for then we shall be enabled to gather
the present ems), and our slaves will be less likely to become
refractory. Again, the military, the tools of the despot,
have lately made a treaty with the Camanches and other tribes
of savages, 'and have engaged them to fight against us; and
should we defeat Cos, before they take the field, they will most
assuredly desert their fallen allies. All these reasons calling
upon us so loudly, uryiny us so stew/As—let us take the field.

for teams to transport his munitions of war, we will have time
to take our station on the road between him and San Antonio,
in which event victory %rill be certain. All Texas has been
informed of war, and many of her citizens are now marching to
the principal place of rendezvous, (Jas. Kerr's, on the La-
been). A large company have engaged to leave Brazoria on
the 29th inst., at which time and place every patriot should
present himself ready for action.
" Fellow Citizens, we have now an opportunity of opening
the war with a glorious triumph, which in its ultimate conse-
quences will prove thnsalvation of Texas.
" By defeating of Cos, Santa Antonio- will fall as a matter
of course, and then there will not be a formidable division of
the Despot's troops within a thousand miles of Texas ; months
will pass, ere they can get here ; before which period you
will be armed, prepared, and disciplined for war ; and in a
situation to defy any force, which the Despot can send
against you.

which you have espoused, or the fees to ivlina you4sro
