THE 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 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. Byhis 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.

THE NA YE

The screw steamship Edgar, 91. Neptune, 91,
and Imperieuse, 51, left Portland harbour early
this morning for a cruise in the Channel.
The crew of the Himalaya screw troopship, Coin.
Seccombe, at Portsmouth, have been paid wages
and granted leave of absence.
In consequence of the activity which prevails in
the shipbuilding and other departments at Chatham
dockyard, 30 additional labourers have been en-
tered for the service of that establishment.
The lighter Rochester is shipping dockyard stores
at Chatham for Portsmouth and Devonport dock-
yards.
The Inkermann, lighter vessel, belonging to the
military store department, left Woolwich yester-
day for the special purpose of conveying a 70-
pounder breech-loading Armstrong gun to Shoe-
buryness, for experiments, which are ordered to
take place forthwith.
The following appointments were made yesterday
at the Admiralty :—George Love, paymaster, to be
Secretary to Rear-Admiral Dacres ; Richard Cur-
genven, paymaster, to the Pearl ; W. H. Richards,
paymaster, to the Arrogant ; and John T. Stockyer,
master's assistant, to the Arrogant.

TILE ARMY.

In order to test the superiority of Major Rhodes's
tents in the greater ease and quickness with which
they can be pitched and struck, in comparison
with the ordinary tents hitherto used by the
Government, some trials have just been made at
Chatham, in the presence of several of the officers
attached to the staff, at the garrison, and the medi-
cal officers of the military hospitals, in order that
the board of officers appointed by the Duke of Cam-
bridge might embody the results in their report of
Major Rhodes's inventions. The first trial was
made with one of the ordinary hospital tents now
standing in the grounds at the garrison hospital,
15 troops of the line, who were accustomed to that
description of tent, being ordered to strike it. This
they succeeded in doing in exactly 20 minutes,
which was considered to be a very short time, the
hospital tent being an unusually large one, and
having about 180 ropes and pegs to support it. The
same number of men were then ordered to strike
Major Rhodes's curvilinear hospital tent, which is
somewhat larger than the Government hospital
marquee. Notwithstanding, however, that the ar-
rangements of this tent were quite new to the men,
they succeeded in striking it in exactly 7 minutes, or
nearly one-third of the time occupied in removing the
hospital marquee. This portion of the trial was
pronounced very satisfactory, and it was then pro-
posed that the same men should pitch the tents.
This was done, but the time occupied by the troops
in erecting the two tents was equal, there being no
decided advantage in favour of either, although
there can be no doubt that, after any number of
men have pitched Major Rhodes's tents once or
twice, they will be able to accomplish that opera-
tion in less than half the time now occupied. It
should, however, be borne in mind that it is of far
greater advantage that troops should be able to
strike their tents rapidly as a camp is generally, of
necessity, broken up with greater haste than it is

CORN EXCHANGE.

Our market, to-day, was but moderately supplied with
English wheat—both old and new—and the general quality
of the samples was by no means first-rate. The trade ruled
inactive ; but compared with Monday, no change took
place in the quotations.
There was a good show of foreign wheat. Even the
finest qualities met a dull inquiry ; nevertheless late rates
were supported.
Barley was in fair request at very full prices. The supply
on offer was very limited.
There was a slow inquiry for malt on former terms.
The oat trade was heavy, owing to large arrivals from
abroad, and prices wore fully 6d per quarter lower than on
Monday.
Beans and peas maintained late rates ; but country flour
was rather lower to purchase.
The imports from abroad continues on a very limited
scale.

THE MOST SUCCESSFUL ARTICLE EVER KNOWN
in the GROWTH and IMPROVEMENT of the HUMAN

HAIR is
OWLANDS' • MACASSAR OIL, proved
-1-11) beyond question by its successful results for more than
half a century past, and when other specifics have failed. It
prevents hair from falling off or turning grey, strengthens
weak hair, cleanses it from scurf or dandriff, and makes it
beautifully soft, pliable, and glossy. For children it is espe-
cially recommended as forming the basis of a beautiful head
of hair.
Its invaluable properties have obtained the patronage of
royalty, the nobility, and the aristocracy throughout Europe,
while its introduction into the nursery of royalty, and the
high esteem in which it is universally held, with numerous
testimonials constantly received of its efficacy, afford the
best and surest proofs of its merits. Price 3s. 6d. and 7s. ;

Sons," in red ink. Sold by all chemists and perfumers.

THE STATE OF THE COURT AT GUILDHALL.

In the course of the trial of the above cause, Lord
Campbell noticed the unseemly attitude of the
defendant, standing with his back to the Judge and
leaning over the first row, where the Queen's
Counsel sit.

The attorney explained that he was taking notes
of the evidence in the temporary absence of the
leading counsel, and as there was no table provided
for the attorneys he was obliged to stand and write.
He was very glad of the opportunity of noticing to
his lordship the fact that in no other court were
the attorneys left without the accommodation of a
desk or table.

Lord Campbell said he quite concurred in the
justice of the complaint, and he supposed that if it
were noticed in the usual manner something would
be done to remedy it.
. The next case was not concluded at 5 o'clock,
when the Court was adjourned until Monday.

SECOND COURT.

(Sittings at Nisi Prius, at Guildhall, before Mr.
Baron Bramwell, and a Common Jury.)
PAGET V. BOTTOMLEY.

This was an action brought to recover damages
for an alleged slander. The defendant pleaded
not guilty . •
Mr. 0. B. C. Harrison appeared for the plaintiff;
Mr. Henry James represented the defendant.
It appeared from the plaintiff's case that the
parties were housekeepers at 55, Broad-street.
City, and, a letter containing bills of exchange
having been missed from a room under the control
of the defendant, she made use of the words com-
plained of—namely, "NO doubt that the woman
up-stairs has taken it, and has given it to her friend
the Frenchman."

At the conclusion of the plaintiff's case Mr. James
submitted that the words used did not amount to a
slander.

Mr. Baron Bramwell—l have very considerable
doubt whether they do, and it is very singular that
there is no case upon the subject. It seems to me
if any person states the conclusion at which, upon
certain facts, he has arrived he is not guilty of
slander. However, Mr. James, you had better go
to the jury. This is a sort of make-believe action,
for if one party recovers she gets nothing, and
about a few paltry words which no one believed
costs have been incurred amounting to upwards of
£lOO. I must say it is a scandalous action.
The learned Counsel having then addressed the
jury on behalf of their respective clients,
His Lordship summed up.
_- - -

The jury asked what amount of damages would
carry costs.
Mr. Baron Bramwell said he was not sure that
he ought to tell them if they were going to make a
bad use of the information, as they would do if
they allowed their verdict to be influenced by it.
However, Lord Campbell had said that it was a
part of the law of the land, and, therefore, a jury
should be made acquainted with it. The amount
of damages which would carry costs was 40s.
The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff,
damages one shilling.

TRANSIT OF BATTERIES TO INDIA

Sir Do L. EVANS asked the Secretary of State for
India whether it was the fact that 12 field batteries of ar-
tillery were ordered or intended to be sent to India ; and
whether the transit of troops to India by way of Egypt was
ordered to be totally discontinued ?
Lord STANLEY said the batteries were ordered, but
would not be sent out at present; and with regard to the
second question, the practice would be discontinued.

FORGERY.

Robert Ball Palmer, 41, watchmaker, was indicted for
forging and uttering a bill for 145, and a warrant for the
delivery of certain goods.

The prisoner pleaded guilty.

On behalf of the prisoner it was urged that the offence to
which he had pleaded guilty was committed under pecu-
liarly painful circumstances. For some time he had carried
on business in Bath, but from domestic affliction his re-
sources became exhausted, and he was utterly unable
to maintain his family. ,After struggling for some
time in a manful way against adversity, ho came to
London, and then, after finding all things fail, he com-
mitted the offence with which he stood charged. The
learned counsel said he had a memorial from Bath in favour
of the prisoner's character, signed by several of the most in-
fluential persons resident there, and he trusted that under
all the circumstances of the case his lordship would deal
mercifully with the prisoner.

The Recorder said there certainly was some difference in
this case from those usually tried in that court, and he
should therefore sentence the prisoner to only 18 months'
imprisonment.

The whole of the disposable men belonging to the

has recently disembarked from her Majesty's ship
Hecla Commander Elphinstone D'O. D'A. Aplin,
