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 ibesfc answer to the question, probably, is this— Ne7vouaneas is an natural condition of the nervous system. Sometimes this unnatural state is accompanied ■with consider able bodily weakness, loss of flesh 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 confused, afraid, and alarmed ; the heart beats violently, the hand shakes when writing, and the whole fratne 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 j. the ordinary duties of life become burdensome, society is shunned, and ; business neglected. ■-■■'■> :" n 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 nowfor 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? i • '.

Agents for New 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 sore 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 1 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 thfe 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 dulyqualified members of the profession."— Dr Copland's Medical Dictionary, 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 disgusting and villainous quackery, and treated with benefit to the patient, is by the scientific and conscientious practitioner openly taking them under his own charge.— Lancete 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 his work point out a way of escape. to sufferers from the injuries on their constitution, and the drain made on their purse by impudent charlatana To suoh sufferers we commend a purusal of Mr Beany's volume. —Victorian Telegraph,
