Late Surgeon to the Melbourne Hospital, and to the Royal Victorian Artillery Regiment, formerly Surgeon to the 3rd Royal Lancashire Regiment of Infantry iu the Mediterranean, and Staff Surgeon to the Turkish Armj during the War in the Crimea.

"Spermatorrhoea, 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 diseased, 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 | removal of the morbidly disqualifying conditions about to be considered, but which 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, and that too 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 quilified members of the profession."—(Dr Copland's Medical Dictionary, Vol. 11.) Of Mr beaney's work "The Generative System" it may be honestly said that were it a subject matter more generally known many moral and social benefits would be the result to the human race. Physiology ia a branch of science ' tabooed' by mock modesly. But the neglect is terribly avenged by the slighted study, The spretm injuria forma! has (iu this instance of Physiology): reared a. brood of ills which it is fearful to contemplate. A sound knowledge of the leading tenets of Physiology is indispensible to the principal of a boarding school. We entirely agree with Mr Beaney when he remarks, "that the neglect of physiological education in scho 'Is is to be condemned, onthe ground that it deprives boys of material information which would be of eminent value to them in the perilous period of approaching puberty; and there cm be no question but if information could imparted iu 'such a manner as would not shock the moral feelings it would not only dispel the cloud of ignorance and misapprehension as to the most important physiological truths, in the minds of the young, but would promofc; a healthier and' manlier tons."—Australian School Review, Sept. 1873.

Dr Beaney's New Work.—This gentleman has contributed another very valuable volume to the medical literature of the Colony, on a subject of vast importauce to the most vital interests of the present and future generations, The subject is one which must recommend itself to the serious consideration of every philanthropist, and though it is one we are precluded, from .its delicate character, from treating upoa to any great extent, in our columns, still we cannot refrain from remarking that this gentleman, holding a high position in his profession, has stepped forward to fill the breach long open to the most unscrupulous impostors, who have entailed, probably, on a portion of the human family, more misery and suffering than the little i>ood they have done or may do by mere chance, can ever counterbalance. We have to acknowledge the receipt of a copy of the work,' and would urge upon tuose who take an interest in this scisuce,. and in the welfare of a people; to obtain a copy at the earliest opportunity; they will find it instructive and deeply interesting.^—Border Post, Albury, Dec. 23, 1872. The Generative System, and its Functions in Health and Disease.—This,work is a valuable addition to that class of medical literature, which has through false delicacy been neglected by medical men of standing and position, and therefore used and abused by charlatans. The volume coniaius 326 pages and forms a suitable companion to the other work.' .Parents will find most valuable information in it, which may aid them in rearing up a family in a healthy state, when without such knowledge they might see their children perish without ever Buspecting the cause.—Tasmanian Gomwull Chronicle, Dec. 4, 1874.

"The Generative System," by Dr Beaney, will be found of great value by many persons; We agree with the author, that " there ha 3, until within the past few yeara, been a morbid delicacy in the public mind with reference to books of this kind," but it is passing away, and although they will necessarily be restricted in their circulation, they cannot but be of great advantage to the} colonist, The subject is treated very fuLw indeed, and cases from his own extensive practice, as well as from that of others, are adduced illustrative of the principles advanced by tne 'author for the guidance and instruction of his readers.—Greswkk Adnrtmr, Jan. 8, 1873. We have to notice another work by Mr Beauey, entitled. "The Generative System" and ita functions in health and disease.' It is divided into two divisions; the first having reference to the generative .organs, and their functions in their normal condition; and the second deals with the generative organs, aud their functions in abnormal conditions. The nature of the subject selected, prohibits lengthly criticism, but the high posiiion att lined by the author iu his profession, is a sufficient proof of the ability displayed in the treating of this important subject.— WeeUy Leader, Hokitika, N.Z., Feb. 20, 1873.

Mr Beiney occupies so high a rank iii his profession, and is so generally regarded as aa undoubted authority on matters of this nature, that his opinions entitle hiui to every respect, while his boldness and fearlessness in stepping forward to the rolief of suffering humanity, gives him a claim upon our gratitude, Tho " Generative System and its functions in health and disease," is the title of another volume from the pen of the same talented author. This work lias been written with a desire to alleviate much of the misery ciused by imperfect knowledge of the functions o£ the orgnua of reproduction. To thoso not familiar with this important subject, it is clear tlut definite information of a physiological character will be found oi inestimable advantage, by supplyiug intelligent guidance in the conduct of i-exiia! life, aud to those m advho the perusal of so valuable book.—Marlbmk jjh Eqnw, 1 Feb. 22,18^3. £ B A I L L.I K .& E, . fyBIJSMiR, Molho.urn«,YiQiQttß(
