Of human ills and frailties I discourse,
Those taught by nature and by art acquir'd.
Of griefs coneeard, and disappointments keen,
Which young and gentle—the matured and sago—
The lonely and the mated—all sustain ;
In, kindly spirit herein counsel's given,
How health, how hope, how happiness to gain."

OPINIONS Or TEX PRINS.
We regard the work before us, The Silent Friend,' as a
work embracing most clear and practical views of a genes of com-
plaints hitherto little understood, and passed over by the majority of
the Medical profession, for what reason we are at a loon o know.
Wesnust, however, confess that a perusal of this work has left such
a favourable impression on our minds, that we not only recommend,
but cordially wish every one who is the victim *f past folly, or suffer.
Sag front indiscretion, to profit by the advice contained in its pages."
—Age and Argus.
" The Authors of ' The Silent Friend,' seem to be thoroughly
conversant with the treatment of a clam of complaints which are, we
fear, too prevalent in the present day. The perspicuous style in
which this book is written, and the valuable hints it conveys to
those who are apprehensive of entering the marriage state, cannot
fall to recomme it to a careffil
YRI perusal."—Era.

SIGIKT AND 1111ANINO.-39, Albemarle-street,Picca-
dilly. Newly-invented spectacles, telescopes, opera-
glasses, microscopes, &c. Patronised by Generals Sir
Edward Paget, Sir Evan Lloyd, Frederick Meister,
Clayton, Galway, Grosvenor, Morrison, Dyott, Robert-
son, and Mackenzie ; Major-Generals Sir H. Elphin-
stone, P. Fyers, D. Macleod, Hamilton, and Wemyss ;
Lieut.-Generals Sir Henry Boaverie, Sir J. Macdonald,
Sir R. Barton, Sir T. Dallas, Lord John Hay ; Admirals
Sir George Cockburn, Sir George Munday, Sir G.
Martin, Sir James H. Whitshed, Sir D. Gold, and
Ross. By the use of these newly-invented spectacles,
imperfect vision becomes preserved and strengthened,
and very aged persons are enabled to employ their sight
at the most minute occupation, and can see with those
lenses of a much less magnifying power, nor will they
require the frequent changes to further helps ; also
newly-invented achromatic waistcoat-pocket telescopes
and opera glasses. Every kind of telescope of larger
sine with increasing powers, for shooting, sea purposes,
and, upon stands, for astronomical purposes, with the
same celebrated lenses, the powers are so great, and the
lenses so bright and brilliant, that minute objects at an
extraordinary distance are brought completely under the
eye. Sportsmen, tourists, and sea-side ♦isitors will
have a great treat. Their invisible voice conductor gives
immediate relief to old standing extreme eases of deaf-
ness. Caution—Messrs. S. and B. Solomons, opticians
and aurists, are not in any way connected with a person
of the same name in their immediate neighbourhood, nor
in any part of the country. To prevent mistakes be
cautious and observe, only to be had at 39, Albemarle-
street, Piccadilly, opposite the York Hotel.
SPANISU CONSISTENCT.—It is a curious coincidence
that, while the Legislative Chambers at Madrid are dis-
cussing the Reform Bill, the Ministry are engaged in
committing excesses never surpassed, if equalled, by
former brigands. General Narvaez is created Duke of
Ardoz and a grandee of Spain of the first clam because
we presume he is an assassin of the first order. Ile gives
a banquet to the Queen one day, and the next orders the
execution of the son and brother-in-law of Zurbano.
We would suggest that the British Government imme-
diately present General Narvaez with a red riband. Any
other colour would not be in keeping with such a blood-
stained monster.—The Great Gun.
LIE COUNTESS OF BLESSINGTON.—The novel-read-
ing public are on the qui vice for the new work of
" Strathern," from the pen of this accomplished authoress,
whose productions are ever received with a cordial wel-
come by all classes :of readers, on account of the ori-
ginality and knowledge of life which they display.
Many of the characters in this work are said-to be por-
traits drawn from real life,figuring in a series of remark.
able scenes at home or abroad. To specify two or three
of the leading ones :—ln Lord Fitzwarren, the good-
natured foxhunter, may be recognised a certain Noble
Peer of the present day ; in Lady Mountserrat, a rich
and vulgar parvenue, whose strange " sayings and doings"
have repeatedly been a theme for remark in the fashion-
able world ; and the designing and unprincipled Wel-
lerby family are likenesses much too striking to be
mistaken.
