(IN THE SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT of
STRICTURES of the URETHRA; showing why they
so often appear Incurable, when in reality they might be
removed by the most simple means.
By I'. B. COURTENAY, M.R.C.S.E.,
And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for the
Cure of Strictures of the Urethra.

" This work is the production of a surgeon whose special
attention has been directed, through a long professional life,
to 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.

A LADPS OPINION OF AFFAIRS.

" I am much interested in the aspect of the war,
and my blood will boil without a fire if they in head
quarters do not make tha braggarts do what is right.
The flag of an Englishman' is not to lose its
colour by the squirt of a Sherry Cobler. I am
only a woman' and not a very ' strong minded one,'
but I should cheer on the Britishers,' and urge
them to give loud mouthed Yankees a ' tarn ation
licking.' Let us have a game at Armstrongs,'
and see literally which arm is strongest."

TILE ROYAL NAVAL RESERVE.

TO TUE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Srit,—The great success of tha Royal Naval Reserve
force naturally leads to the inquiry—To whom are we
indebted for the scheme?

On reference to the Report of the Royal Commissioners
on Manning the Navy, dated 19th February, 1859, I find
that the rules and regulations now governing the force are
founded upon the suggestions of /qr. C. H. Greenhow,
shipping master, North Shields, as contained in his letter
of 27th May, 1850.—See Appendix No. 21, page 369.
Ought not this fact to be generally known ?
Yours faithfully, P.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

ROBBERY IN HYDE-PARK.—George Taylor, a young
man, described as a grocer's assistant, was charged before
Mr. Tyrwhitt with stealing a watch of the value of £5 in,
Hyde-park.

Mr. Thomas Crittle, of the Three Tuns, Sydenhana, said
ho met the prisoner at the Cattle Show, he being an entire
stranger to him. They left togeher and walked on till they
got into the park, where prisoner seized his watch, and on
asking for it he knocked him down, and they had a scuttle
for it. He ran after the prisoner, calling " Stop thief,"
and 'on a constable coming up prisoner handed him the
watch without saying anything.
Prisoner—You spoke to me first.

Prosecutor—l was going across the park to get to Lon-
don-bridge, and went under a tree.

Floyd, 153 A, said he heard the cry of "stop thief" from
near the Magazine Barracks. Prosecutor said prisoner had
stolen his watch, but had given it him back. Prisoner said
it was only a lark, but prosecutor had marks of blood on
the mouth. Prosecutor said prisoner had offered to show
him the way across the park to London Bridge.
Prisoner set up a defence that prosecutor had acted im-
properly.

ROYAL NAVAL RESERVE.

The following addresses have been unanimously
adopted by the members of the Naval Reserve at
the several ports of Aberdeen, Alloa, and South-
ampton :

" To Captain W. MOULD,
"Drill Station, Aberdeen, Dec. 6.
"Sir,—Having been informed through the public
papers that the British flag has been wantonly
violated on the high seas by the San Jacinto, an
American ship of war, and that four of the passen-
gers of the Royal Mail steamer Trent were forcibly
removed and made prisoners while claiming its
protection, we, as British seamen connected with
the Royal Naval Reserve, who love their Queen
and country, feel the insult as a personal one, and
are ready to a man to avenge it.
" We respectfully request you to report our de-
termination in the proper quarter.
" Signed on behalf of the Royal Naval Volunteers
presently undergoing their drill at Aberdeen.
"JAMES CLARK, R.N., Volunteer."

"To J. J. ANSELL, ESQ., SHIPPING MASTER.

" Alloa, Dec. 10.

" We, the undersigned seamen of this port, be-
longing to the Royal Naval Reserve, feeling deeply
indignant at the late flagrant insult perpetrated on
the British flag, beg to express through you our
intention to be prepared to assist in avenging such
insult whenever called upon; and in our name and
those of our comrades of the Reserve still afloat,
we request you will convey to the proper quarter
the strong expression of our wishes."
(Signed on behalf of the Members of the
Naval Reserve.)

The following patriotic address has been generally
signed by the Royal Naval Reserve at Southamp-
ton, and forwarded to Capt. Willcox, her Majesty's
ship Dauntless :

" Sir,—We, the members of the Royal Naval
Reserve now in the port of Southampton, desire
through you to express our-readiness at any moment
to join any of her Majesty's ships of war, in order to
chastise the American or any other nation that shall
dare to insult our old English flag, as has been
done on board the Trent, and to defend the honour
of our dear Queen and country."

(Signed by all the Reserve men in port,
on behalf of themselves and brother
sailors.)

T FRIGHT'S RACING RECORD.

The winter edition of this well-known turf record
has just made its appearance. It contains a large
amount of information, commencing with the Derby
lots for 1862, trainers in Great Britain and Ireland,
jockeys, their lowest riding weights, &c., all the
racing and steeplechasing in the three kingdoms
during the past season, list of winning jockeys is
1861, nominations in England and Ireland for
1862-3, new laws of betting, and a host of other
matter invaluable to racing men and amateurs as
well. It is most carefully indexed, and in every
case where it was possible, the trainer of each animal
is included in the list of horses that ran during the
year. To sporting men it will be found invaluable.

The Duke and Duchess of Manchester have left
their residence, in Stanhope-street, on a visit to the Earl
and Countess of Derby, at Knowsley-park, Lancashire.

The Earl and Countess Delawarr have left town
on a visit to the Marquis and Marchioness of Salisbury, at
Hatfield House, Herts.
The Earl of Lincoln was so far recovered from
his recent indisposition as to take carriage airing on Wed-
nesday and yesterday. Should the noble earl be so far pro-
gressed to recovery, he will leave town to-morrow for
Clumber Park, in order to meet the electors of Nottingham
by Monday.

Canada.
The route having arrived at the Sheet-street bar-
racks, Windsor, yesterday morning for the imme-
diate departure for town of 200 rank and file of the
Ist battalion of Scots Fusileer Guards, who have
been doing garrison duty at Windsor Castle since
October last, the men were in readiness as early as
10 o'clock in the forenoon. They marched through
the town in high spirits to the South-Western sta
tion en route for Paddington, headed by their fine
band, playing " I'm off to Charleston early in the
Morning," and were loudly cheered by the inhabi
tants. On arriving in town they will join the 2d

Officers to wear the same uniform as officers of correspond-
ing rank in the Royal Navy, with the following- exceptions,
viz. :

Lieutenants.—lnstead of the stripe of half-inch lace
round the sleeves of the coats there is to be a stripe
formed of two waved lines of quarter-inch gold braid,
intersecting each other, so as to form a band half an
inch wide, the blue cloth to show between the curves.
Sub-Lieutenants to have one such waved line of the same
braid,

The buttons of both classes to be of the Royal Navy
pattern, with the letters " R.N.R." in old English

21IE NAVY.

The Euryalus and Shannon frigates, at Ports-
mouth, have as yet no officers named to commission
them. Both vessels, however, are complete in
every respect, and can proceed to sea within 12
hours, if necessary. The Vigilant and Pandora
screw sloops! are held in equal readiness, but, as in
the case of the frigates, no one has yet been named
to their command. The Chanticleer, 17, screw, is
flying the transferred pennant of the Wasp, with
her officers and crew on a week's leave. On their
rejoining, she can proceed to sea at a day's notice,
if required. The case is very different with the
Geyser, 6 paddle, which vessel, on being ordered to
the Pacific, has been discovered to have serious de-
fects, and has, in consequence, turned her crow
over to one of the hulks in the harbour. She will
be taken into the steam basin to-day to undergo the
necessary repairs, the extent of which and the time
occupied will depend, as a matter of course, upon
the extent of defects discovered.

The Hannibal, 89, screw, Capt. A. Farquhar,
arrived at Spithead yesterday morning from the
Mediterranean. The Hannibal has brought home
the seamen pensioners discharged from the ships
on the Mediterranean station, in accordance
with the orders recently issued to that effect by
the Admiralty. They were landed from the ship by
Government steamer during the day. The Hannibal
is expected to go into Portsmouth harbour to•mor
row to pay off her crew and be put out of commis-
sion. Her boilers and machinery are very defective.
She sailed from Malta on Nov. 25tb, and from Gib-
raltar on the 2d inst.

Prince Adalbert, Lord High Admiral of Prussia,
has addressed a communication to the Chevalier
Van den Berg, Prussian Consul at Portsmouth, di-
recting that inquiries shall be made of the pilot
boats in the Channel for tidings of the Prussian 18-
gun corvette Amazone, which left Elsinore on Nov.
2d for Lisbon, nothing having been heard of her
since. It is feared that she was lost during the gales
off the Doggerbank, which succeeded her departure
from the Baltic.

The Osborne paddle yacht, Master Commander
G. R. Bower, specially fitted for the accommodation
of H.R.H. the Prince of Wales and suite during the
visit of his Royal Highness to the Mediterranean, is
expected to sail from Portsmouth about the 16th
lust, It is probable that his Royal Highness will
embark at Devonport, the yacht calling in there
after leaving Portsmouth.
Orders have been received at Sheerness directing
Mr. J. Greig, storekeeper at that station, to embark
forthwith for Canada. Mr. Greig is succeeded at
Sheerness by Mr. J. Moore, from the storekeeper's
department at Woolwich.
Commander M'Crea, gazetted to the command of

the paddlewheel steamship Devastation, for service
in the Atlantic, yesterday took up his commission,
and hoisted his pennant at the topmast of the ship
in basin at Woolwich.

The undernamed gentlemen have been nominated
to naval cadetships : —E. V. B. Gaunt, Wm. Nigel
Madan, Gerald John Roberts, Ford E. W. Lambert,
and Horace Baker.

THE GREAT FIRE IN TOOLEY-STREET.--The fire
is far from being extinguished, and about noon yesterday,
a fresh outbreak took place in one of the vaults nearest the
northern extremity, which had hitherto escaped. This de-
partment contained some thousand bales of bacon and tierces
of lard, as well as a great number of hogsheads of salted
beef. Several explosions also occurred about noon, no
doubt caused from the ignition of saltpetre and casks of
tallow. An opening has been made under the Customs'
department, next to the Grapes Tavern, and immense quan-
tities of pickled beef and pork are being taken out, and tons
weight of liquid tallow and oil are being skimmed by means
of large ladles off the surface of the sewage water, as it is
forced by the same element from the Thames, and the
stand pipes supplied by the Southwark Company. The
two powerful steam floats are still obliged to be kept at
work, and are throwing, one, six tons of water per minute,
and the other, four tons in the same time. The result of
all this is hardly perceptible beyond the fact that it drives
the oil and tallow into the sewers. The inside walls are
in such a dangerous state that they axe expected hourly
to fall.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE,

BETTING AT MANCHESTER—THURSDAY.
There was very little done on anything for the future
to-day. Russley, about whom 10 to 1 was taken, was the
only horse brought into notice for Liverpool Cup. For
the Goodwood Stakes, 17 to 2 would have been taken about
Shipwreck. 8 to 1 was offered against Schism, and an offer
to take 9to 1 was declined. Starke, against whom 100 to
6 was laid yesterday, had friends to-day at 100 to 8. The
events of the day appeared to find full employment for those
present.

WORCESTER RACES.—THURSDAY.
The sport commenced with the Trial Stakes, for which
four " sported silk." After Curlew had won the Mile
Handicap, which be did in gallant style, the telegraph
displayed eleven runners for the great event (the Worcester
Stakes) which Von Stroom could have won in a canter.
J. Snowien immediately afterwards weighed in for Von
Stroom, amidst considerable uproar and confusion, he being
protected by policemen. The jockey, however, came up to
the reporter's room, and offered to go before the stewards
of the meeting to give an explanation, but he was not
called upon to do so, as no investigation had taken place
up to the time our report left. Some of the jockeys riding
in the race said that Snowden went on the wrong side of a
post at the top turn, when they called to him to come back ;
but Snowden said he could not stop Von Stroom, who held
the lead to the Stand, when he pulled him up.

relating to the lunatics under the care of the Court of
Chancery ?

()N THE SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT of
V STRICTURES of the URETHRA ; showing why they
so often appear Incurable, when in reality they might be
removed by the most simple means.
By F. B. COURTENAY, M.R.C.S.E.,
And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for the
Cure of Strictures of the Urethra.
" This work is the production of a surgeon whose special
attention has been directed, through a long professional life,
to the treatment of strictures o 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 valuab.
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.
