NERVOUSNESS : ITS NATURE & CURE ■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 be real when the patient is found to be dying or dead. The best answer to the question, probably, is this— Netvoumess is an unnatural condition of the nervous system. Sometimes this unnatural state is accompanied with considerable 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 frame at times expe-i riences a complete tremulousness. The intellect also is sometimes clouded, the memory fails, the. judgment becomes indis--tinct, 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 shunned, 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, religionj amj'ie means, and kind friends, nevertheless are victims of the nervousness, above' def scribed ; unhappy themselves, they render other people unhappy. Why is this? What j cause has operated to change the cheerfulj 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; A ttempts 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? -■;. • . : | The Answer will be found by carefudy perusing the Following Work :— \ Ninth Edition,^ post free Is 4d, j NERVOUS DEBILITY, ITS CAUSE AND ■ : CURE, , .

SPERMATO R R H CE A , 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 Sew Zealand- -Messrs WISE, Dunedin. , Spermatorrhoea, with impotence and ste rility "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 entinly overlooked by medical- writers or very imperfectly discussed, and thereby relinquished to the irregular practitioner, or to the eiitirely 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 1 the community have a righit 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 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 •yith benefit to the patient, is by the scientific and conscientious practitioner openly taking them under his own charge. — Lancete 30fchMay, 1857. j We are glad that Dr Beaney, a Melbourne | surgeon of established reputation, has. had | the courage to grapple with this subject, and Iby the publication of his work point ou|t a . way of escape to sufferers from the injuries on their constitution, and the drain marie on 1 their purse by impudent charlatans. To such sufferers we commend: a purnsal >of Mr Beany's volume.— Victorian Telegraph.
