OPINIONS OP THE PRESS.

" We regard the work before us,'' The Silent Friend,' as a
work embracing most clear and practical views of a series if com-
plaints hitherto little understood, and passed over by the majority of
the Medical profession, for what reason we are at a loss to know.
Wemust, 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 of past folly, or suffer-
ing from 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 class 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 recommend it to a careful perusal."—Era.

FORGERY ON THE BANK OF ENGLAND.—(From
the Brussels Gazette.)—We would put our readers on
their guard against an extensive forgery of notes of the
Bank of England for one hundred pounds sterling each,
at present in circulation in Belgium and other parts of
the Continent. These notes are so well imitated as to
baffle the closest inspection. Indeed, we are informed,
that even the Bank itself has been deceived by them, for
that one was actually paid upon preset.tation there, and
it was only when the genuine note bearing the same
number afterwards made its appearance, that the fraud
was detected. We have heard of 7001. of the said for-
geries having been cashed by a changeur at Brussels,
and 2001. in Antwerp; but that the Bank has acted in
the most liberal manner by having already liquidated
nearly the whole amount of these, and it is probable they
will do the same with regard to the others as they come
in, that can be proved to have been taken in a regular
course of business. The person whol (Japed the said
parties is apparently a Frenchman, of small stature, with
a,good address, but unprepossessing look, and an agent
of the bank has come over in purtuit of him.
