"We regard the work before us , the "Silent Friend , " as a work embracing most clear and practical views of a series of complaints hitherto little understood , and passed over by the majority of the medical profession , for what reason we are at a loss to know .

L > a gentle stimulant and renovator of the impaired functions of life , and is exclusively directed to the cure of such complaints as arise from a " disorganization of the Generative S yste m , whether constitutional or acquired , loss of sexual power , and debility arising from Syphilitic disease : and is calculated to afford decided relief to those who , by early indulgence in solitary habits , have weakened the powers uf their system , aud fallen into a state of cbroiuc debility , by which the constitution is left in a deplorable state , and that nervous mentality kept up which places the individual in a state of anxiety for the remainder of life . The consequences arising from this dangerous practice , are not confined to its ;> ure physical result , but branch to moral ones ; leading the excited deviating aiiud into a fertile field of Eeducive error—into a gradual but total di- ^ radatiDn of manhood—into a perflicioa ? application « . f those inherent rights which nature wisely instituted for the preservation of her species ; bringing on premature decrepitude , and all the habitudes ot old age .

      MESSRS . MAUSTON AND CO ., SUKGEON'S , & . c , 204 , TOOLET-STBEZT , BOBOCGH , LOUDON . MESSRS . M . und Co . offer , through thi s medium , to the public at large , the benefit of their long and tried experience in the treatment of all diseases , especially to those wbo have fallen into a state of chronic debility , the consequence of one disease of a particular nature , or proceeding from other causes equally destructive to the healthy performance of the various functions of the human economy . There are certain habits contracted in the earlier periods of life , more particularly in large seminaries , alike affecting both sexes , which produce premature decay of the vital powers . To " all" w « address ourselves , confident in our own resources for permanent and speedy relief , and ultimate cure . Deing well acquainted with the diseases incident to females , their causes and effects , we would impress on their minds the necessity of early seeking medical advice ; and when they look around the churchyards , and number the years inscribed on each tombstone of ^ soine dear friend departed in the flower of youth and beauty , through neglect , they will feel it a duty to themselves , their parents , friends , and , above all , their Maker , to endeavour to prolong that life which lie gave them for useful und beneficial purposes . In all cases of general debility , from whatever causes proceeding ; indigestion , cough , loss ot appetite , pains in the limbs , nocturnal sweats , hectic flushes , nervousness , head-ache , lowness of spirits , trembling , loss of memory , eruptions , wasting and dryness of the skin , hysterics , 4 c . ic , the patient would derive real relief from the usp of Messrs ; M . and Co . ' s "Specific Pill ^ " and " Generative Balm of Bahama , " strongly recommended upon the test of long experience for the use of both seses , hundreds having found relief by their use when every other effort had failed .

      LONDON . Metropolitan District Council , 1 , Turnagainlane , Skinner-street , Snow-hill , December 15 , Mr . MyhiG in the chair . —Mr , Jamea Arnott moved the followiiig address , which was unanimously adopted : — An Address from the Metropolitan District Council to the Working Men of Londoncvnd its vicinity , who have been , but are not at present , members of die National Charter Association . Fellow Working Men , —You , with whom we have acted ; you , who Lave heretofore been our fellow-lahourevs in the glorious cause of political redemption ; you , whose professions had almost led us to believe that your very existence was bound up in the success of our righteous cause ; we address vou , not in the

      spirit of vindictiveness : wo address you with brotherly affection , and ask , what ia the cause of the stolid apathy , of the death-like torpidity that now prevails among you ? Is it that our wrongs are redressed ? Is it that our just demands have been conceded ? Are we now well fed , well clothed , contented , and happy ? ' . Arc we yet fully and fairly represented ? Have we a just , wise , merciful , and good government ? No ; we say empliatieaUy , no . Perhaps some of you have come to the determination to sit down with folded arms , in contented shivery ; to see yourselves despised , neglected , abused , oppressed , amid the scoffs and jeers of your oppressors ; those who are surrounded with all the luxuries that unbounded wealth and power can command , whilst

      you , the industrious" bees , from whom all wealth springs , are reduced to destitution , want , and misery , caused by political degradation and the want of legislative power . You have ceased your efforts—you no longer labour to emancipate yourselves and your order from thraldom and slave-like degradation . Perhaps you have doubts as to the efficiency of the Charter , when enacted , toproduce the good results Labour ' s sons were wont to anticipate . If such doubts exist , we point your attention to the blessings abounding in those countries where the people have had the good sense to adopt the principle contained in the Peoples ' ¦ Charter . After along , careful , and deliberate study of the Peoples' Charter , we still cling to the belief that that document is the most simple , yet most efiicent , political document , ever laid before the people ;

      that it in the luvw by which they will obtain political power— " equal rights , and equal laws . " We have stated that many of you have taken an active part in our movement . We thought you sincere ; we thought you the staunch advocates of liberty , truth , and justice ; and that , like ourselves , you wore the implacable enemies of misrule . We are still at our posts , with the same determination glowing in our breasts , still resolved never to rest satisfied until the Charter shall become the law of the land . But where are you ? We aak you , have you done your duty as brothers and as men i Can you , as patriots , behold with cahu indifference the murky and portentous atmosphere which now overhangs this misgoverned and oppressed nation ? Can you tamely view the

      ruin—> . " While lawless force with guilty s tride Spreads desolation far and wide ?" Can you , as fathers , valuing the destiny of your offspring , take a glance prospectively withcomplacency 6 r satisfaction ? Convinced as you are that Class Legislation is the cause of existing evils , and persuaded as we are that ours is the only effectual instrument to crush the hydra-headed monster , we call on you to put away your apathy—to cast aside your lethargy—to arouse yourselves , and again unite . Let all past disagreeable circumstances be forgotten . Rally onco more round the standard of Democracy :

      give vour support to our honest , faithful , and assiduous Executive . Enrol vourselves in the Nationil Charter Association . We have now that bright luminary , the Northern Star , shining with increased splendour among us . Let us second the noble , patriotio , and unceasing exertions of its indomitable proprietor . Let unity of action and concentration of purpose be your prevailing characteristic . If you would receive your fair proportion of the wealth you create—if you would that the maiiy govern the few , and not the few the many—it' you would lx- powerful and free , you must unite !

      Come now , let all unite , We mil the Charter gain ; And free our own—our native land , From slavery's galling chain ! Throw discord to the winds- *—united moot the foe ; Know ye not who would be free , themselves must strike tho blow ' On behalf of tho Council .

      Visit of tue Corn Law League to Rotuebhamakd Sheffield . —On Monday , Richard Cobden , Esq , and R . R . R . 11 . Moore , Ebq ., visited Rotherham , for the purpose of bringing before the Association , the intended operations of the League in placing forty shil * ling freeholders on the registry for the \\ est Ruling of Yorkshire . [ Application had been made to the magistrates by Thomas Badger , Esq ., for the use of the Court-hoube for the occasion , and Colonel Fullerton , on the part of the magistrates , returned the- following answer ! : — " That the Court-house would be engaged on that day by the magistrates , who were as anxious to maintain the laws as Cobdeii and the League were to pull them doAvn . " After applying at . several other places with like success , they were constrained

      to hire a club room in the "'lhree Cranes" public house , where jthe honourable member for Stockport , and Rory O'Moore related the "Sing Song tale " ( which seems jto be going the round of the country ) to a select fewj of their dupes . The whole aftair was "flat , stale , and unprofitable . " In the evening the gentlemen visited Sheffield , where the " Leaguers " ha *! made great preparations to receive them—all the known Free-traders in the town having been waited on and served with " circulars " , there being no announcement of the meeting , save a paragraph In the Independent , At half-past six o ' clock the doors of the Music Hall were thrown open , when we discovered a whole posse of policemen taking the circulars as the 1 parties presented themselves , and a

      Mr . '' JackeyV Wardle acting the part of Inspector , to see that none but the " right sort" were admitted . At seven o ' cloiek the deputation made their appearance , accompanied by the committee . The chair was taken by EcUyard Smith , Esq ., who opened the business by observing that it was strictly a Free-trade meeting , as proper steps had been taken to admit none but friends , and if any other were in the room , it must be by circulars that wore addressed to other people ; but they had taken the necessary precautions to maintain order , and he , therefore , expected he would have but little to do but to sit and hear the gentlemen who would now address them . After apologising for the absence of Mr . Bright , who was

      detained in London , but whose place was well supplied by their warni j hearted Irish friend , R . R . Moore , bsq ., he introduced ; Mr . Cobden to the meeting . [ It is useless to give a report of Mr . Cobden ' s speech , as he has delivered the same to our knowledge , without one additional new -sentence , at Hudderslield , Leeds , arid Covent Garden . It would be as well to have it stereotyped and circulated , and thus save the honourable {" member much time in travelling , and the League und'much expense . ] At the conclusion of Mr . Cobden ' s speech , printed cards , with the following inscription — " 1 have a desire to possess a qualification lor the West Riding of Yorkshire . Name ; Residence "—were

      circulated among the meeting , to be filled up , in order that they might know how many new voters they were likely to get . After about half an hour , the chairman announced that he had got seventy , which , with promises ! he had received before , would make a hundred , which was a very good start . . [ We were informed that ] there were but tour out of the hundred who were not already qualified , and on the register ; but there is nothing like puff . } The next speaker was R . R . R . i R . Moore , Esq . We had been often told that this gentleman was a great favourite with the ladies , anil that but few could pick their pockets with ao good si grace as he . We are not inclined to

      dispute this , if the remark be true " that ladies delight in listening to soft nothings ; " for of all the displays of baldfcraash and rigmarole that it has been our lot to listen to , Rory's was the " father of them all . " " Savelan age , " but didn't he spake "mighty grand intirely )! " and when he came to discourse of the condti ionjof the agricultural labourers , didn ' t he cry in " rale jcaynest ; " and when he pulled out his dune handkerchief to blow his nose , we could not help thinking that he had descended from the real " Keenthaughautns , " or else that he was intimately related to some of the " chief mourners" who were

      present at the wake of " Teddy Roe . " When the crying was over , Rory tried his hand again with the "ladies , " telling them that they could not beg any more this year , but they were going to hare a bazaar in Covent-garden , and they must go to work , and either by begging or borrowing' furnish them with something handsome froin Sheffield to recruit their funds , and enable them to carry on the holy war . After some routine business , the meeting-separated . — Correspondent .

Kidd , jone of the few middle-class Chartists in the town , ! was unanimously called to the' chair , and , after a fpw well-timed remarks , introduced me to address the meeting on the " Wrongs of Ireland , and a Repeal lot' the Union . " I occupied about ' two hours in reviewing the state of that country .- At the c ' ose of the lecture Mr . Miles attempted to negative one of my propositions , viz . : — - "That the people of Ireland had alright to a Repeal of the Union . " He

      denied that tliere was any such thing at all in existence as right , krguing that all right was measured by and founded upon utility . In support ol" his position , he quoted Lord John Russell on the presentation of the first National Petition , also Paley and David Hume . In reply , I contended , that if there was no such thing as i-iyht then there could be no such thing as wrong , and ! that Mr . Miles was not justitied in complaining of the present system , and if utilitywerc to be taken as the standard of right , I wished to know who was to boithe judire as to what reall y was useful . For , as in the [ case of the people of Ireland and the

      Tory Government , the former declared that a Repeal of tne Union would be both right and useful ,, but the latter contended that it would be neither . ' Who , then , was to decide ? I gave it as my' opiniott that right was always useful , and that nothing short of making right the rule of action in society could keep society itself together , ~ Mr . Miles complained that I had confounded political with social and moral rights . He did not mean that . I , on the other hand , adopted the maxim laid -down by Lord Ashley in the House of Commons ; ' that , " what was morally right could not be politically wrong , " and vice versa , " what was morally wrong could not be politically right . " The debate was carried

      On in the most friendly- manner , and the meeting broke up in good spirits . On the following evening ( Tuesday ) I lectured a ^ ain in the same place , on " the rights and duties ot Capital and Labour . " The veteran democrat , Mr . Archibald M'Douald , late of Aberdeen , ably filled the chair . The meeting was numerous and * attentive . At the close Mr . Miles moved the thanks of the meeting to me , for my lectures ; which being carried , I set to work at the enrolment , and had the gratification of organizing a splendid body of real out-and-out democrats . I am happy in being able to state that Chartism stands upon a real solid foundation in Dundee , all seeming to vie with each other in pushing the cause . On .

      Wednesday , I started for Arbroath , and in the evening lectured to a good audience , in an excellent hall , the property of the Chartist body .
