"The various positions of Lover, Husband, and Parent, the in-
herent Frivileges of mankind, are frequently marred and prevented
throurz the follies and frailties of early indiscretions. To such,
among others, this Essay addresses itself; and by its perusal many
questions may be satisfactorily adjusted that admit of no appeal even
to the most confidential friend."—Stafford Gazette.
" Long experience in the treatment of a class of diseases hitherto
neglected and most imperfectly understood by the great bulk of the
medical profession, has enabled the writer to prove that there are
conccale I causes of Nervous Debility In exi tense, where the were
routine practitioner would never dream of finding them ; traceozlo
to certam habits, forming the most secret, yet deadly, and f ••al
springs of domestic misery, and premature mortality."—Wakefield

if We regard the work before us, "' The Silent Friend,' as a
work embracing must clear and practical views of a series of com-
plaints hitherto little understood, and passed over by the majority of
the Medical profession, for what reason we are at a losst o know.
We must, 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
fail to recommend it to a careful perusai."—Era.

POST-OFFICE.—CAUTION.
PRICE and CO., perfumers to her Majesty, 28'
Lombard-street (late Price and Gosnell's, and formerly
Patey, Butts, Price, and Co's.), by the recommendation of the Se-
cretary of the Post.offlce, beg to " impress upon their Corre-
spondents the necessity of precision in the address of all letters in.
tended for them," thus—" Price and Co." (and not " Price and
Gosnell"--that firm ceased to exist in 1831), as the only means of
guarding against the fraudulent conduct of individuals who take
in and retain letters and orders intended for Price and Co., by il.
legally assuming the firm of " Price and Gosnell," well knowing
hat they never were in any way connected with that firm
OTHERWISE THAN AS SERVANTS.
Price and Co.'s Perfumery is so superior to any other, and in such
general demand, that many shopkeepers are basely deceiving the
Public by selling, o urious imitations. Price and Co. respect-
fully solicit Ladies and Gentlemen when they purchase not to
take any article without the protection label, from a design by Sir
William Cougreve, being affixed to it, with the signature of
" Prices nd Co. Lombard-street," in red ink, and " conspi-
cuously in its centre.
Price and Co. are the sole Wholesale Agents for
DELCROIX'S KALYDOR,

Majesty the Queen, and her Majesty the Queen Dowager, by es.

DELCROIX'S MACASSAR OIL,

of her Majesty and his Royal Highness Prince Albert. Price

DELCROIX'S ODONTO.
" We do not hesitate to recommend, from experience, DEL.
CROIX'S ODONTO, or the Queen's own Dentifrice, as the most
valuable means of purifying, preserving, and embellishing the
Teeth and Gums, hitherto offbred to the Public."--Court Gazette.
The litouquet Duke of York is the last new fashionable
perfume of the season 1844 ; but though the last, is net the least
i nperfection, as it happily combines the preceding excellence of all
the royal bouquets, with tke delicate and delicious fragrance of the
white moss rose.
Let him who is a true born gentleman,
And stands upon the honour of his birth
If he suppose that I have pleaded truth—
From off this briar pluck a white rose with me.
Messrs. J. Delcrolx and Co., 158, New Bond.street, have pleasure
In offering this their last bouquet of the season, and beg to inform
the Nobility and their Patrons that, during the recess, all orders
for their " unique cadcau" of a case containing the six royal bou-
quets for one guinea, comprising the bouquets de la Reine, d'Albert,
Prince of Wales, Duke of York, Princesse Royale, and Princesse
Alice, will be forwarded to any part of the country, carriage paid.
To insure the genuine, particular attention is required in observing
that No. 158, New Bond.street, London, be upon each case and
every bottle, as worthless counterfeits, for the sake of profit, are
sold by Druggists and Hairdressers in town and country.
SHAVING A LUXURY.

PRICE and CO.'s RYPOPHAGON surpasses every soap ever
invented for shaving. One trial will prove that the luxury of a
good shave can be enjoyed only by those who use Price and Co.'s
Rypophagon, which renders shaving (hitherto disagreeable and
often painful) pleasant and easy.
Prepared by Price and Co., 28, Lombard-street (late Price and
Gosnell's), and sold by Delcroix and Co., 158, New Bond-street,
