This work contains an accurate and complete account of the
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs. It un-
fortunately happens that the unhappy victim of excessive indul-
gence and vicious habits, while suffering from their invariable con-
sequence., unwisely entertains a fear of applying to a qualified physi-
cian for relief. Shame and the dread so frequently, but erro-
neously entertained that these complaints are beyond the reach of
art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking or assistance where
alone it can be procured. Dr. LA'MERT has taken the highest
medical honours, as his diplomas testify, and the great extent of his
practice fur many years is a guarantee for his professional experi-
ence, which has reference almost solely to the treatment of these
diseases.

MEETING OF MIDDLESEX
MAGISTRATES.
On Thursday the magistrates of the county of
Middlesex assembled at the Sessions House, Clerken-
well (by adjournment from the sth instant, when a
court could not be formed, in consequence of the non-
attendance of magistrates), for the purpose of trans-
acting general county business. There were nearly,
thirty magistrates present. Mr. Pownall, the chair-
man of the bench, presided.
Mr. ALLEN, the county treasurer, offieiAted for the
deputy clerk of the peace, and read the minutes of
the pi eceding court. In conformity with a rule of
the court, requiring its attention to be called to any
new Act of Parliament, affecting the interests of the
county, or relating to justices in Petty or General
Quarter Sessions, Mr. Allen laid before the court the
recently passed Act to extend summary jurizdiction
in cases of simple larceny.

CLAMP/CATION OF PRISONERS.
Mr. WILKs called the attention of the bench to the
report of the Select Committee on Prison Discipline,
and upon his motion copies of the report, excluding
the evidence, were ordered to be printed and circu-
lated amongst the magistrates.
Some discussion then took place as to the mode in
which the recent order of the court for the classifi-
cation of prisoners in the county prisons should be
carried into effect. Ultimately it was ordered " that
all prisoners who, in consequence of the order made
by the court on the 18th ddy of July for the classifi-
cation of prisoners in the prisons of this county, cannot
lawfully be detained in those prisons from and after
the 29th day of September inst., be, on the 30th
day of September inst. removed by the governors of
the respective prisons in which they shall then be in
confinement to the prisons applicable to their recep-
tion, and that a list of all such prisoners'be signed
both by the governor sending and the governor re-
ceiving them." And,that a letter be forwarded to all
the police magistrates of the county, requesting them
to specify in each commitment the age of the person
committed.
