A LADY'S ESCAPE from GWALIOR, an d
A LIFE in the Fort of AGRA during the MUTINIES
of 1857. By Mrs. -CDOPLAND.'
" This book is valuable as a contribution to the history of
the great Indian rebellion. The description of the retreat at
Gwalior was a desideratum, and must ever be read with in-
terest."—Athenmurn.
" The merit of this book is its truth. The chronicles of
those who were eye-witnesses of this great struggle havenow
formed a little library, to which the narrative of Mrs. Coop-
land is most fitly added. It contains some passages that
never will be read by Englishmen without emotion."—

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. 13. COURTENAY, M.R C.S.E.,
And formerly Surgeon toricttures trope olUrethralnfirmary for the
Cure offt

" 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, Dec. Ist, 1858.

ELECTRICAL INFLUENCE IN HEALTH AND
.DISEASE.
Just Published, price le., free by Post for Fourteen Stamps,
GIECOND LIFE : or ELECTRICAL NERVOUS
FORCE ; a MEDICAL WORK, intended for the special
perusal of all who are suffering from the various forms of
NERVOUS and PHYSICAL DEBILITY, and the distress-
ing- ulterior consequences to which they lead ; with practical
Observations on the great Curative power of ELECTRO-
GALVANISM in the treatment of these Disordem by infus-
ing tone and vigour in constitutions relaxed or debilitated
from various enervating causes. Illustrated with Cases com-
piled from the Note-book of a Registered Medical Practi-
tioner of twenty years' standing.
Unlike many vaunted restoratives, Electricity is one which
commends itself to the medical man as being accordant with
the soundest teachings of physiology. By the most obvious
indication it admits of being shown that the Electrical and
Nervous energies are identical hence, that when the latter
fails, the former can take its place, and that when, from irre-
gularities of any kind, the nervous system has become debili-
tated, paralysed, or exhausted, and the patient brought to a
condition little short of total prostration, then bye medicalaction
of Electricity, imparting certainty and efficacy
treatment, he can be re-invigorated, and his health re-esta-
blished to a degree almost warranting the designation of
SECOND LIFE.
