What is Nervousness? — Various answers might be given to this question, according to the constitution and knowledge of the individual. Strong healthy persons, whether medically educated or not, generally regard * nervousness as more or less an "imaginary " complaint ;" it is sometimes only believed to c j be real when the patient is found to be dying * or dead. The best answer to the question, & probably, is this— Netvousness is an un- • natural condition of the nervous system. Sometimes this unnatural state is accompanied with considerable bodily weakness, loss of ■1 flesh and loss of strength ; but in most cases c there is in the earlier stages of the disorder no outward sign of weakness. The sufferers are found in both sexes ; they often have tbe blnom of health upon the cheek ; they are surrounded by kind friends, yet existence to them has no charms, for they feel that they cannot enjoy it. Without intending it, they ~ annoy other people about the merest trifles ; " if they encounter some person unexpectedly they feel confuspd, afraid, and alarmed ; the heart beats violently, the hand shakes when writing, and th« whole frame at times experiences a complete tremulousness. Tht intellect also is sometimes clouded, the memory fails, the judgment becomes indise tinct, the will capricious and undecided, tbe y taste vitiated, the imagination, broods upon d unpleasant topics, thespirits are vervlow oi very excited, the ordinary duties o£ life become burdensome, society is shunned, and k ' business neglected. I, A Stange Spectacle. —lt is certainly v strange, but not the less true, that perfectly sane persons in the prime of life, with firm step and heal hy countenance, may occasionally be met with, who, in spite of possessing n all the advantages of education, religion, c amrle means, and kind friends, nevertheless are victims of the nervousness above des scribed ; unhappy themselves, they render other people unhappy. Why is this ? What cause has operated to change tbe cheerful, active, obliging, unsuspecting, and unconi- _ plaining youth into the unnappy, drowsy, listlest, suspicious, and gloomy misanthrope ? Many causes, or one cause only, may operate to produce this sad state ; the cause may be either mental or physical, or both combined. A ttemvts to Cure Nervousness by tneava o ordinary tonics have so frequently proved fruitless that the leading physicians now for the most part recommend hygienic means, such as exercise in the open air, regular * habits, sea bathing, the cold bath friction ; change of air and scene, as in travelling. If all these fail, as they often do, what is to be done? The Answer will be found by carefully perusing the Following Work: — c Ninth Edition, post free Is 4d, ' NERVOUS DEBILITY, ITS CAUSE AND c CURE, - With Plain Directions for Perfect Restoration to Health.

SPERMATORRHOEA, In its Physiological, Medical,, and Legal Aspects, > By JAMES GEO. BEANEY. F.R.C.S., Formerly Surgeon to the Melbourne Hospital and Her Majesty's Troops during the War in the Crimea. Agents for Isew Zealand— Messrs WISE. Dunedin. Spermatorrhoea, with impotence and sterility "are subjects of mucli greater practi- . cal importance than has been conceived bj ' many, and often involve the happiness an« perpetuation of families. Yet have they, b} a sore of professional prudery, been eithe) entirely overlooked by medical writers or very imperfectly discussed, and thereby re linquished to the irregular practitioner, or ti the entirely unqualified empiric. In the present era of high refinement and of luxurious if not vicious enjoyments, and under the influence of noxious plans and systems of education, instances are very numerous for which medical advice is required for the removal of the morbidly disqualifying conditions about to be considered, but is not resorted to so frequently as it ought to be Since advice is thus often necessary, the ability of those from whom the community have a right to expect it, of the most judicious kind, should be equally great in providing it. There is every reason, also, to believe that it would be oftener sought after if the subject were known to be more fully entertained by the duly qualified members of the profession." — Dr Copland's Medical Die tionary, vol. 11. " The only way by which some of the most important functional ailments and aberrant physiological states affecting humanity can be rescued from the grasp of the most dis gusting and villainous quackery, and treated with benefit to the patient, U by the scientific and conscientious piactitioner openly raking them under his own charge. — Lancet 30th May, 1557. We are glad that Dr Beaney, a Melbourne surgeon of established reputation, has had the courage to grapple with this subject, and •y the publication of this work point out a way of escape to sufferers trom the injuries on tbeir constitution, and the drain made on iieir purse by impudent charlatans. To such ufferere we coanmuid a perusal of Mr Uean«y's volume. —Victoria itkgraph.
