NERVOUSNESS: ITS NATURE & CURE What is Nervousness?— Various answers might be given to this qnestion, 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 be real when the patient is found to be dying of diaad. The best answer to the question, probably, is this— Neivousness is an unnatural condition of the nervous system. Sometimes this unnatural state is accompanied with considerable, bodily weakness, loss of flesh 1 and 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 about the merest trifles ; if they encounter some person unexpectedly they feel cpnf uspd, afraid, and alarmed ; tne heart beats violently, the hand shakes when writing, and the whole frame at times experiences a complete tremulousness. The intellect also is sometimes clouded, the memory fails, the 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 burdensome, society is Bhunned, and business neglected. ' A Stange Spectacle.— lt is certainly strange, but not the less true, that perfectly sane persons in the prime of life, with firm step and healthy countenance, may occasionally 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 the cheerful, active, obliging, unsuspecting, and uncomplaining 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. Attempts to Cure Nervousness by means of 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?

F.R.C.S., Formerly Surgeon to the Melbourne Hospital and Her Majesty's Troops during ; the War in the Crimea. A gents for Rew 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 and perpetuation of families. Yet have they, by a* gore of professional prudery, been either entirely overlooked by. medical writers or very imperfectly discussed, and thereby re-, linquished to the irregular practitioner, or to thf 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 if or 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 pro,viding it. There is every rea§o«, afepf to believe .that it "would fee o|te»er sought after if the subjjept were known to be more fully ..' entertained by the duly qualiiied members of ' the profession."— -Dr. Copland's Medical Dietio7iary,Y6l. 11. " The only way by which' some of the most , ] important functional ailments and aberrant , physiological states affecting humanity ca.n be rescued from the grasp of the «\ost dis- ; gusting and villainous auapkejy, and treated j ivith benefit to "the patient, is by the scientsc ; and conscientious practitioner openly 1 taking them under his own charge.— Lancete < 30th May, 1857. ■ :>:■.-.,■• We are glad that Dr Beaney, a Melbourne y surgeon of established reputation, has had the courage to grapple with this subject, and, by the publication of his work pphit out a < way of escape ' to sufferers froxu" tke injuries J on their constitution, and the drain made on their purse by ppuderit charlatans. To such sufferer? we , commend a purnsal- of Mr Beany's yon-une.— Victorian TeUgrayh,
