What is Neryqusness? —^Various answers might be given to this question, according to the constitution and knowledge of the in? dividual. Strong healthy persons, whether medically educated or not, generally regard nervousness as more or less an "imaginary complaint ;" it is sometimes only believed, to be real when the patient is found to be dying or dead. The best answer to the question, probably, is ,this— Neivousness is an unnatural condition oftlie nervous system. Sometimes this unnatural state is accompanied with considerable bodily weakness, loss of flesh arid loss of strength ; but in most cases there is in the earlier stages of the disorder no outward sign of weakness. The sufferers are found in both sexes ; they often have the bloom 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 abont the merest trifles ; if they encounter some person unexpectedly they feel confused, afraid, andalarriied; the heart beats violently, thphapd phakeswhen writing, and the whole frajne at tijnes experiences a complete tremulousneßS. The intellect also is sometimes clouded, the memory fails, tbe judgment becomes indistinct, the will capricious and undecided, the taste vitiated, the imagination broods upon unpleasant topics, the spirits are very low or very excited, the ordinary duties of life become burdepsome, society is shunned, and business neglected. : A Stance Spectacle.— # js certainly •trange, but not the less true, that perfectly sane persons in the prime of life, with firm step and healthy cQuniep&pce, may .occasion: ally be met with, who, in spite of possessing all the advantages of education, religion, ample means, .and kind friends, nevertheless are victims of the -nervousness above described; unhappy themselves, they render other people unhappy. Why is this ? What cause has operated to change tbe cheerful, active, obliging, unsuspecting, and unconir plaining youth into the. unhappy, . 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 ttempte tp Cure tfervoyeness .by means o ordinary' tonics have so frequently prOYpd fruitless that the leading physician's 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?

BEANEY, F.R.C.S., Formerly Surgeon to the Melbourne Hospital and Her Majesty's Troops during the War in the Crimea. . Agents for l\ew Zealand — Messrs WISE, Dunedin. Spermatorrhoea, with impotence and sterility "are subjects of much greater practical importance than has been conceived by many, and often involve the happiness anc perpetuation of families. Yet have they, by a sort of professional prudery, been either entirely overlooked by medical writers or very, imperfectly discussed, and thereby relinquished to the irregular practitioner, 'or to 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 rißr moval 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 iv providing it. There is every reason, also, to believe that it would be oftener sought after if the siibjeet were known to be more fully entertained by the duly qualified members of the profession." — Dr Copland's Medical Die Uonary, 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 withi'benefit to the patient, is by the scientific and conscientious practitioner openly taking them under his own charge.— Lancet 30th May, 1857. We are glad that Dr Beaney, a Melbourne surgeon of established reputation, has had the courage to grapple with this subject, and by the publication of this work point out a way Of escape to sufferers from the injuries pn their constitution, and the drain made on heir purse by impudent charlatans.
