Cure Of Strictures of the Urethra,

" The aim of the author is to present a common-sense view
of the Causes, Nature, Consequences, and Treatment of this
Disease, as also to free these questions from the Professional
Fallacies, the Popular Delusions, and the exaggerations of
Quackery by which they have hitherto been surrounded, to the
destruction of the health and happiness of thousands. These
objects arc discussed in a common-sense and highly practical
manner."—Medical Circular.

SELF-PRESERVATION : A Medical Treatise

WEAKNESS, more particularly in reference to the INFIR-
MITIES and DISORDERS oftlie GENERATIVE SYSTEM;
tracing the Origin of these distressing afflictions to causes
which vitiate the very fountains of Lice and prematurely de-
stroy the vigour of Manhood. With Practical Observations
on the Cure of these Diseases, and on the extraordinary re-
storative power of LOCAL GALVANISM in Spermatorrhcea,

An erroneous impression exists that public announcements
on these disorders emanate only from t'nqualified persons,
Abut as as the new Medical Act provides that none but registered
shall assume any medical title, those that
legally qualified can readily be disting-uished—a point ofgreat
importance in cases where secrecy, confidence, and skill are
equally requisite.
In the new edition of ' Self-Preservation,' facts of para-
mount utility are brought together—facts appealing to the
prudence of all who are suffering from affectiohs which in-
volve the enfeeblement and ultimate loss of those powers
without which man forfeits the dignity of nature, and smks to
the most pitiable depths of physical and moral degradation.
In cases where the vital essences have been weakened by the
influences of tropical climates, by pernicious habits, indiscri-
minate excesses, improper diet, hardship, or by iniudicious
treatment, the means of cure adopted by the author, in con-
junction with the application of Local Galvanism, have gene-
rally been found successful, even in cases where recovery bad
been pronounced impossible.

The Funds or Property of the. Company as at 31st Decem-
ber, 1857, amounted to X 017,801, invested in Government or
other approved securities.
Annual Income, upwards of Xlll,OOO from premiums alone.
CHAIRMAN.—The lion. FRANCIS SCOTT, M.P.
DEPUTY CHAIRMAN.—CHARLES BE RWICK CURTIS,Esq.
INVALID LlVES.—Persons not in sound health may have
their lives insured at equitable rates.
ACCOMMODATION IN PAYMENT OF PREMIUM.—OnIy one-
half of the Annual Premium, when the insurance is for life,
requires to be paid for the first five years, simple interest be-
ing charged on the balance. Such arrangement is equivalent
to an immediate advance of 50 per cent. upon the annual pre
mium, without the borrower having recourse to the unplea-
sant necessity of procuring sureties, or assigning and thereby
parting with his Policy-, during the currency of the Loan,
Irrespective of the great attendant expenses in such arrange-
ment.
The above mode of insurance has been found most advan-
tageous when Policies have been required to cover monetary
transactions, or when incomes applicable for Insurance are at
present limited, as it only necessitates half the outlay formerly
required by other Companies before the present system was
instituted by this Office.
LOANS—Are granted likewise on real and personal Secu-
rities.

plication to the Resident Director,

BIDIYULPII V. LEE.---WRIT OF EIinOIt.—IUDGMENT.

This was a writ of error from the Court of Queen's
Bench finding that, under the will of the late Richard
Biddulph, in 1760, his daughters and nieces took an estate
in fee tail only, and not an estate in fee simple.
Lord Chief Justice Cockburn delivered the judgment of
the court, affirming the judgment of the Court of Queen's
Bench. The other judges concurred.
