ON THE SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT of
STRICTURES of the URETHRA; showing why they

removed by the most simple means.
By F. B. COURTENAY, M.R.C.S.E.,

And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for th.
Cure of Strictures of the Urethra.

This work is the production of a surgeon whose specify'
attention has been directed, through a long professional life.
to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases
,vhich Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his
;rent discriminative power in the diagnosis of the varicu:
chide of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which,
'heir management is founded. By his systematic management
y) immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is
ittained, and future mischief prevented. The work we earl
most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuaLlej

'procession approaching over the gravel came nearer
~,I,ery minute. With the first tokens of its approach
;, the head of the funeral procession was formed two
deep, passing along down the south aisle and up
the centre of the nave to near the choir. The south
door was then opened, and Lord George Lennox,
hearing the Field Marshal's baton, sword, and hat
, of the deceased Prince, followed by Earl Spencer,
carrying his crown, entered the aisle. In a minute
afterwards the coffin was carried in by ten bearers
and laid upon the bier. Here it was entirely hidden

first, those of the Queen were on a ground of silver

''' tissue; those of the late Prince on deep black; so
:',. that the contrast betweeii these rich armorial bear-
ings was as startling and marked as that be-
tween the white border of the pall and its gloomy
, centre. When all was arranged the Lord
Chamberlain, accompanied by the Vice-Cham-
berlain, Lord Castlerosse (only four months ago
'the genial host of his late Royal Highness at
Killarney), proceeded up the choir to Wolsey's
chapel, where the Royal mourners had already
assembled, and who at once slowly crossed the
chapel and took their stations in the south aisle at:
ithe head of the corpse. The Prince of Wales, as'
it, chief mourner, stood in the centre ; on his right was
Ithe little Prince Arthur; on his left, the deceased
. Prince's elder brother, the Duke of Saxe-Coburg
and Gotha, remained at the head of the coffin
motionless. The Prince of Wales bore up with
great fortitude, and though he, like all the rest, at
times gave way to irrepressible bursts of tears, he

The cold, bleak, wintry aspect of the day at'i
Windsor was mournful and cheerless enough, but
oven its empty streets and rows of muffled windows;
had an air almost of light and life compared with the
- ippearance of St. George's Chapel. The aspect of
this was alone enough to impress with gloomy awes'

!ors, if any such could possibly have witnessed the r
mournful rite of yesterday. The silence of the graveV

ironed down by the general gloom, and to become
fin their stiff lifelessness as a part of the mourning-'

'stall beneath a silver-gilt escocheen, placed beside,

great House of Montmorenci, who were Constables
of France, and before all by the English Knights
who were the first Governors of Calais ! The event
of yesterday was one which history will record with
mourning, but even at such a time it was difficult
to repress the reflections these escocheons suggested.
Whole families of dynasties, whose styles and titles
dare here so gaudily emblazoned, have passed away
like a tale that is told, yet with ourselves each cen-
tury has only knit strongly and more strongly the
bond of love and kindly feeling between the
Sovereign and the people. Now each affliction

fort of her life and guide of her throne, was laid

Tittle from the aspect of solemn gloom and statel3
!mourning it always wears on these most mournful
'occasions. A raised platform had been constructed
down the centre nave, leading from the south en
e.ance to the choir, with balustrades dividing it f.
TOM
the
north and south aisles. All this, of course.
!was carpeted and draped with black, so that the .1
change, though slight in fact, being one of colour.
!completely altered the aspect of the fine old build-
ing. The basement seemed black everywhere— A
'black over nave and aisles and side walls, am',
,deeper and more dense than all seemed the black
within the dimly-lighted choir, where the empty
oaken stalls and vacant canopies of the Knights of
the Garter gave a still more desolate aspect to the
scene. The steps leading to the Communion table.
the Communion table itself, even the walls at the
back, were hung with solemn black, and thus the
groined arches and fine white fluted columns of the
building had, by contrast, a bleak, shrunk, ghastly
look; while over all beneath, so absorbing was the
dark hue that it was difficult at times to distinguish
the forms of the attendants as, clad in deep mourn
ing, they crowded the floor, like shadows flitting
noiselessly to and fro. So complete was this muffled
obscurity of the basement that all the steps leading
to the stalls would have been quite undistinguisb-
able but that the outline of each stair was marked
Bong its edge with a thin line of white, which, if
possible, gave a still more cadaverous and skeleton;
aspect to the whole interior. Only one thin nar-
row strip of white broke the darkness of the
centre of the floor, stretching from the west end
of the nave to the front of the Communion
table. This was laid to guide the assistants,
who, when covered completely by the pall, would
have to move the heavy bier up the centre of
the Chapel to the platform, where it was to be
lowered to the passage leading to the Royal vault.
This thin line ended at a broad square aper-
Lure in the floor, the external entrance to the Royal
tombhouse below; though the mouth of this gloomy
chasm, with its cloth-lined walls, was so little dis-
tinguishable amid the general blackness that, had
not its edge been marked with white bands, it might
have been dangerously overlooked by those engaged
in the choir beneath. But in all this there was no:
much that differed from other Royal funerals. The
north and south aisles were carpeted with black
and along the raised dais in the centre of the nave
at either side were rows of seats for the servants of
the Royal Household and the bailiffs and others con
nected with the management of the late Prince's
farms. There was also a gently-sloping incline,
leading from the:southern door up to the dais, fen
the passage of the bier; but, except in these parti-
culars, the arrangements were precisely the same as
those made for the funeral of the late Duchess of
Kent.

The Duke of Saxe•Coburg, who was devotedly

iConsort. At the same time Lord George Lennox,
Lord of the Bedchamber, laid the baton of the late
Prince as Field Marshal, crossed with the sword)
and surmounted with the Field Marshal's hat andl
plume, on the foot of the coffin, above the insignia
,of the Garter. All these memorials were fastened'
Ito the heavy black velvet cushions on which
they were laid. Thus left alone in the midst of,!
Ithe wide expanse of black, the melancholy
1
,gorgeousness of the crimson coffin stood out the;
lone conspicuous centre in startling contrast, almost,'
the only solitary object in all the Chapel which was
not covered with black and draped in solemn(
mourning. As this last ceremonial ended the at-
tendants retired from the grave, and there was a
silent pause, during which, as the wind mourned
hoarsely against the casements, the quick sharp
rattle of the troops outside reversing arms was;
plainly audible.: Then came the muffled toll;
of the bell, the boom of the minute guns, and the;
coffin slowly and at first almost imperceptibly began
to sink into the grave.
There was more than mourning at this most
solemn time. The Princes hid their faces and
sobbed deeply. All, not in the Royal train, bat in
the chapel, allowed their tears to flow almost un-
checked, and some, such as the Crown Prince of
Prussia and the personal attendants of his late'
Royal Highness, among the pall-bearers seemed
not less deeply moved for a time than the Royal
orphans themselves. Still, the coffin continued to.
sink. It is but a few short months ago since4he
!ate Prince stood at the head of the same sombre
opening and wept as the remains of the Duchess of
Kent were in the same manner lowered slowly to
the Royal mausoleum. The ceremony then was
gloomy and mournful enough, though, after all, it
was but the burial of a member of the Royal family •
long retired from 'public life, full of years and
'donours, and one who had already passed the term
:allotted to mankind. But here, with the Prince
Consort, the husband of our Queen, a young man
in the pride of life and usefulness, of health and
strength and manly beauty, the loss seemed more
than could even then be realised; and it was diffi-
cult—it seemed almost impossible to believe
that the coffin then so slowly creeping
down the wide black groove held all that was
mortal of Prince Albert. It was a solemn,
period, and a most trying one for the mourners)

the foot of the coffin was at the gates of the Royal
ivault. There it remains, though it was not left tc
the gloom of its dark and narrow home till some
dear memorials of love and fond regret from the
:bereaved Queen and children, whom he has so un-
timely left, were sorrowfully deposited by kindred
hands upon the coffin. Yesterday a Queen's mes-.
senger brought from Osborne to Windsor three
little wreaths and a bouquet. The wreaths were

the three elder Princesses—the bouquet of violets,

parts of the choir, as with the faintest and slowest,
motion the coffin still continued sinking. The'
silence within the Chapel was intense—every
movement among those present could be distinctly
heard; the wind moaning round the building
sounded with a hoarse rush, which now and then
was almost noise, and the muffled knells from all the;
spires of Windsor seemed booming above the Royal
grave itself. Slowly fading from the sight the coffin
gradually became level with the floor, then sank

was perfectly irrelevant to the question at issue,
for a person of the humblest rank was as much en-
Titled to justice as the highest. The question was
whether those persons were married, and it would
'just be as competent for the pursuer to call evidence
hat Major Yelverton was a man of immoral con-
Juct, as to prove that the pursuer was not of pure
Jloo d. Even if the defender had proved that the
!pursuer had deceived him on the question of her
lineage, that would constitute no ground in :aw for
nullity of marriage. There was also an attempt on
lthe part of the woman Alsop, who was actuated by

jealousy, to show that the pursuer was not legit],
:nate, that her parents were not married; but what
course was the pursuer to adopt ? Was she to be
called upon to lead counter proof to show that her
parents were married, which he must do if this were
Held to be relevant evidence.

Lord Ardmillan said the pursuer was entitled to
justice, legitimate or illegitimate ; but as she had
chosen to make statements on the record, and had
called her relative, the Countess de Prinnsay, as a
witness to speak to her own parentage, the defender
must also be allowed to lead evidence in the same
matter.

Mr. Fraser— She called a lady of quality to prove
her identity ; but, even supposing that an irregu-
larity had been committed in taking that evidence,
was the irregularity to go on after the objection
was taken P He granted that the defender was
entitled to meet whatever line of evidence was
opened by the pursuer, yet when the objection was
made to this proof, taken at enormous length, being
nearly half the defender's proof, and consisting of
an attack on the lineage of the pursuer, and at-
tempting to show that her father and mother were
not married, that her mother's three brothers were
engaged in trade, and that her grandmother kept
a shop, surely the court was bound to give effect to
the objection. Equally irrelevant was this attempt
to show that the pursuer's conduct in former days
had been somewhat light, and that before she met
Major Yelverton she was in love with Dr. Alsop. All
this was to set up a collateral issue which was no part
of the res gestee of the case. The whole object of this
proof was to throw dirt on the plarsuer,and all applied
to a period before her intimacy with the defender
had commenced. Now, it would be a great cost and
waste of time to get up proof in answer; and in
making his objection to this proof the only reply
was, not that it was relevant, but that the pursuer
began it.

Lord Ardmillan—l do not place any weight on
this proof; for the humblest person of the worst
lineage was entitled to justice; but if the one side
of this proof was relevant, so was the other.
• Mr. Fraser proceeded to refer to his other objec-
dons. He objected to the evidence of Mr. Tippets,
the London solicitor for Mrs. Forbes Yelverton, on
the ground that he was an agent in the cause.
Mr. Millar, for the defence, repudiated the im-
putation of attempting to throw dirt at the pursuer.
All the defender had done was to strip the case of
any little meretricious effect the pursuer had
had endeavoured to throw around it. They had
'imply brought out what they believed to be the
facts of the case, leaving it to his Lordship to deter-
mine its competency, and value of the evidence.
He did not say that to enable the pursuer to succeed
tf her case were otherwise good, she was called on
-o give any account of herself at all, but if she chose
-o set forth circumstances which she thought would
;ive strength or effect to her case, then undoubtedly
,he must stand the result of inquiry by the defender
nto all the circumstances. He sympathised with
• he pursuer in thinking it would have been better
lot to have called any evidence in this matter, but
when the pursuer attempted to make herself out to
le a great lady, and to cast a halo round herself by
showing her fine feelings and susceptibilities, was
,he to be entitled to say to the defender, " You
;han't inquire whether my statements are true P" It
,vas true that all this evidence did not affect the
•vain issue, but the pursuer had chosen to make a
collateral issue of her character and status and they
must meet her upon that issue. Mr. Millar defended
rho admission of Mr. Tippet's evidence on the
;round that he was not an agent in the cause, al-
though he had been employed as an agent on a mat-
ter arising out of the same cause.

Mr. Fraser, in reply, objected to the evidence as
'to ancestry and character being left on the record
In two practical grounds. The first was that it
would be extremely expensive and troublesome to
meet it, and the second was that it was utterly irre-
levant to the case. With the former ground the
court, of course, had nothing to do, though it
weighed very much with the pursuer's counsel; but
)11 the second ground the court was bound to pro-
tect the court from the attempts of parties to encum-
ber the procedure with a great amount of useless
irrelevant matter. Here were a great number of
stories and collateral issues which had nothing at
sll to do with the present case, and could not affect
it one way or another. Here was a story about a
Dr. Alsop having at some former period courted
Kiss Longworth.

Mr. Millar—Miss Longworth courting him.
;Laughter.)

Mr. Fraser—Well, he courted her, or she courted
him. That had been thrust into the record by
the defender, and why were they (the pursuer's
counsel) to be forced to meet a piece of scandal of
that kind ? Then the question about her legitimacy
was thrust in, without ever having been raised
by the pursuer, and it also had no bearing on the
case, even although it were proved. As to the
point about her ancient family, it had only been
stated incidentally by the pursuer, and it might or
might not be corrected without prejudicing her
case one way or another. It might be quite true
that her three brothers were engaged in trade, and
it might be a very interesting family inquiry
whether it could be shown that the Longworths
had not been at the battle of Bosworth-field; but
to erush a quantity of gossip and scandal of that
kind into the record, and force the pursuer to meet
it was exceedingly hard.

Lord Ardmillan—That is not the point. Ido
not think the evidence of the slightest value in the
ease one way or the other. It is vain to suppose
that the lady can be either the better for her long
lineage or her short lineage in this particular case;
but I never heard of a defender being refused leave
to follow the pursuer into a line of evidence which
the latter had originated.
Atter some further debate about the evidence of
Mr. Tippets, in which his lordship expressed his
opinion that he was clearly an agent, but that the
objection had not been taken at the proper time.
Lord Ardmillan intimated that he would issue
an interlocutor admitting the evidence already given
by the defender, leaving it to be met by the pur-
,suer, because he could never allow one party to
e make testative statements, and to withdraw them
4 fter evidence had been prod need against them.

A letter from Cannes, of the 19th, says :—" On

from the Villa Leader to the Hotel Bellevue, in the neigh-
