Just published , in Demy 8 vo ., BY MESSRS . PERRY & Co ., CONSULTING SURGEONS , 44 , Albion Street , Leeds , ( Private Entrance in the Passage , ) and 4 , Great Charles Street , Birmingham , ILLUSTRATED BY EIGHT FINE ENGRAVINGS , THE SILENT FRIEND , A PRACTICAL TREATISE on Venereal and Syphilitic Diseases , in their mild and most alarming forms , shewing the different stages of those deplorable and often fatal disorders , including observations oa the baneful effects of Gonorrhoea , Gleets , and Strictures . The Work is embellished with Engravings , representing the deleterious influence of Mercury on the external appearance of the skin , by eruptions on the head , face , and body ; to which are added very extensive observations on sexual debility , seminal weakness , and impotency , brought on by a delusive habit , all itsattendantsympathies and dangerous consequences considered , with the most approved mode of treatment and cure , without confinement or interruption from business , the whole accompanied by explanatory engravings , with general instructions lor the perfect restoration of those who are incapacitated from entering into the holy state of Marriage , by the evil consequences arising from early abuse , or syphilitic infection . This invaluable Work will be secretly inclosed with each box of Perry ' s Purifying Specific Pills , ( Price 2 s . 9 d ., 4 s . 6 d ., and lls . ) and the Cordial Balm of Syriacum ( Price lls . and 333 . per bottle ) , and is pointed out to suffering humanity as a Silent Friend , to be consulted without exposure , and with assured confidence of euccess . PERRY'S PURIFYING SPECIFIC PILLS , Price 2 s . 3 d ., 4 s . Gd ., and Us . per Box , are well known throughout Europe and America , to be the most certain and effectual cure ever discovered for every stage and symptom of the Venereal Disease , in both sexes , including Gonorrhoea , Gleets , Secondary _ Symptoms , Strictures , Seminal Weakness , Deficiency , and all diseases of tho Urinary Passages , without loss of time , confinement , or hindrance from business . They have effected the most surprising cures , not only in recent and severe cases , but when salivation and all other means have failed ; and when an early application is made to these Pills for the cure of the above complaint , frequently contracted in a moment of inebriety , the eradication is generally completed in a few days . The rash , indiscriminate , and unqualified use of Mercury , has been productive of infinite mischief ; under the notion of its being an antidote for a certain disease , the untutored think they have only to saturate their system with Mercury j and the business is accomplished . Fatal error ! Thousands are annually either mercurialised out of existence , or their constitutions so broken , and the functions of nature so impaired , as to render the residue of life miserable . The disorder we hare in view owes its fatal result either to neglect or ignorance . In the first stage it is always local , and easy to Be extinguished by attending to the directions fully pointed out in the Treatise , without the smallest injury to the constitution ; but when neglected or improperly treated , a mere local affection will be converted into an incurable and fatal malady . What a pity that a young man , the hope of his country and the darling of his parents , should be snatched from all the prospects and enjoyments of life by the consequences of one unguarded moment , and by a disease which is not , in its own nature , fatal , and which never proves so if properly treated . It is a melancholy fact that thousands fall victims to this horrid disease , owing to the unskilfuluess of iterate men ; who , by the use of that deadly

MEDICAL ADVICE . MESSRS . WILKINSON AND CO . SURGEONS , No . 13 , Trafalgar-street , Leeds . HAVING devoted their Studiea exclusively for many years to the successful treatment of the Venereal Disease , in all its various forms ; also , to tho frightful consequences resulting from that destructive praotice , " Self Abuse , " may be Personally Consulted from Nine in the Morning till Ten at Night , and on Sundays till Two . Attendance every Thursday at No . 4 , Georgestreet , Bradford , ( from Ten till Five . ) In recent cases a perfect Cure is completed within a Week , or no Charge made for Medicine after that period , and Country Patients , by making only one personal visit , will receive such Advice and Medi » oinesthat will enable them to obtain a permanent » nd effectual Cure , when all other means have failed . Theyhopethat the successful easy , and expedition ! modetheyhaveadopted . oferadicatingevery symptom of a certain disease , without any material alteration in diet , or hindrance of business , and yet preserving the constitution in full vigour , and free from injury , will establish their claims for support . . As this Disease is one which is likely to be contracted whenever exposure takes place , it is not like many other visitors , once in life , but , on the contrary , one infection may scarcely have been removed , when another may unfortunately be imbibed ; therefore , the practitioner requires real judgment in order to treat each particular case in such a manner as not merely to remove the present attack , but to preserve the constitution unimpaired , in case of a repetition at no distant period . The man of experience can ayail himself of the greatest improvements in modern practice , by being able to distinguish between discharges ot a specific and of a simple or mild nature , which can only be made by one in daily practice , after due consideration of all circumstances . In the same manner at birth , appearances often take place in children , which call for a propel knowledge and acquaintance with the disease , in order to discriminate their real nature , and which may be the means of sowing domestic discord , unless managed by the Surgeon with propriety and skilL Patients labouring under this disease , cannot be too cautious into whose hands they commit themselves . The . propriety of this remark is abundantly manifested , by the same party frequently passing the ordeal of several practitioners , before he is fortunate enough to obtain a perfect cure . The following are some of the many symptoms that distinguish this disease : —A general debility ; eruption on the head , face , and body ; ulcerated sore throats , scrofula , swellings iu the neck , nodes on the shin bones , cancers , fistula , pains in the head and limbs , which are frequetfSy mistaken for rheumatism , &c . &c . Messrs . W . and Co . ' s invariable rule is to give » Card to each of their patients , as a guarantee far Cure , which they pledge themselves to perform , or return the fee . For the accommodation of those who cannot conveniently consult Messrs . W . and Co . personally , they may obtain the Purifying Drops , price 4 s . 6 < L , at any of the following Agents , with Printed Directions , so plain that Patients of either Sex may Cura themselves , without even the knowledge of » bedfellow , Mr .

Amendment Act was to force the working classes of England to live on coarser food ? Little they know" of what is in store for them . An attempt will soon be made to force them to live on " lumpers , " a kind of potato upon which the Irish labourers are obliged te live , although the very pigs will not eat them wbjs » they can get any other sort Mr . O'Higgins sard rb * t be should then bring before the meeting the . motion of which he had given notice on that day fortnight . In doing so , or rather in ffiaeharging a public duty , which was by no means a pleasant one , bnt the very reverse , he shoTtid not enter into a lengthened account of the evidence which Mr . O'Connell gave before a . Committee of the House ef Lords on the subject of the disfranchisement of the forty-shilling freeholders . In his ( Mr .
O'Higgins ) opinion , it would have been wiser in Mr . O'Connell to have let that evidence sleep . His account of the character , the rank and station , and the motives which influenced the Irish Catholic priesthood to enter the Church is really incredible . How he can face them , and praise them , and cajole them now , is matter of anuzemeni It is really iacredib ' . e , Who would imagine that Mr . O'Connell would haTe stated in that evidence to which he has recently directed public attention , and which has formed the subject of the resolution which be , Mr . O'Higgins , should submit to the consideration of the meeting , that the Irish Catholic priests were the sons of a low class of Irishmen , whose first stop to an advancement in the world was to get their eldest sons into the church ; and that it was the
duty of the Government to take , means to secure the loyalty of the Irish Catholic clergy by a golden link from the Crown , that is to say , to be paid by the state , to be subject to the whims of that purest of princes , that pattern of virtue , that best of fathers and best of husbands . King George IT . This evidence contains a mass of information which , when published , will really astonish those who had no knowledge of it heretofore . The evidence against the Irish priesthood is dated the 11 th of March , 1 S 25 , and is to be found at page 8 in the Report Sorely , this will not be considered as abuse of Mx . O'Connell taken from Orange papers . Will Mr . O'Connell venture to say that this report is not true ? Will he charge the House of Lords or the House of Commons with the crime of giving to the world a false report ef his evidence ? If he do ,
I solemnly warn hbn , beforehand , of the consequences Mr . O'Higgins concluded by moving the resolution .- — " That although the members of the Irish Universal Suffrage Association have no wish to entangle Daniel O'Connell , Esq ., M . P ., in a dilemma , nor to add to bis mental agonies or embarrassments , but on the contrary , they feel a most anxious desire to assist in relieving him from the difficulties in which be has involved himself by his publicly acknowledged desertion of those principles to which he says he is pledged by an oath ; yet , they cannot conceal the astonishment and the regret with which they have read a speech of Mr . O'Connell's in the Dublin papers , of the 23 rd ultimo , in which he repudiates the doctrine of Universal Suffrage , and declares it to be absurd and ridiculous ; and calumniates its advotates , while is the very same speechhft
saysi * When I was examined before a committee of the House of Lords on the subject of a forty shilling franchise , I stated there , on my oath , that the remedy for the franchise would be the conceding of Universal SuffrO'je , I am the only public man in the British dominions who is bound by oalh the doctrine of Universal Suffrage . ' Now , he knows , right well , that the meaning of Universal Suffrage in 1335 , and before that period , was precisely th « same as it is now , namely , that every male inhabitant of Great Britain and Ireland , of twentyone years of age , of sane mind , and not convicted by a Jury of a felonious offence , should have the right to
vote at the election oi a MemDeroi Parliament As the sworn testimony of Mr . O'Connellin 1825 , in favour of Universal Suffrage , cannot be reconciled to his present denunciation of it , and of all those who relied upon his oath and acted upon it . We leave this contradic tory testimony between himself and his Creator in the hope that hU conscience may one day or other prompt him to adhere to his oath- " Mr . Thos . Wood , seconded the motion in a very eloquent and energetic speech of considerable length ; after which eleven new members were admitted , and notice for the admission of several others given , when the meeting separated highly gratified at the prospect now before them in the city of Dublin .
ABERDEEN . —On Friday evening , the 10 th inst ., a grand jubilee was held in tke Temperance Hall , George-street , in honour of Feargus O'Connor , Esq . Seven hundred and thirty sat at tea , and the evening was spent in such hilarity and good humour as will cause it to be remembered as one of toe kappiegt nights of Sootia's Bons . The Chairman of the evening was Mr . M'Pherson , comb manufacturer , whose easy and happy turn of mind gave a zest of pleasantness which charmed the whole andience . The speeches of the Chartist leaders on the platform were excellent and very far surpassed for soundness of matter and vivid flishes of wi ; , those of any previous meeting . On the whole , Chartism at no former period shone so brightly iu Aberdeen as it now does , and in this instance the company separated regretting nothing so much as that time had winged its way so rapidly .
Gea > -d demonsteatio- and Open Air Meeti . ng . —On Saturday evening last , a mesting was advertised to be held on the Inches at half-past five o ' clock . Long before the appointed time great numbers from all quarters of the city were seen travelling to the spot , and by the time advertised , thousands were on the ground . At eight o ' elock the chair was taken by Mr . M'Pherson who opened the business in a manly and straightforward speech . Mr . Smart addressed the immense crowd on the by-gone Bufferings of Mr . O'Conaer , and the bright prospects which would result to the cause of Chartism by his liberation , and concluded a neat and forcible speeefl , by proposing the following resolution : — " That this meeting hail with pleasure and delight , the release of their leng-tried and faithful
fneDd Feargus O'Connor , from the dungeon of our common oppressors , and we pledge ourselves , while he goes unarmed demanding liberty for the enslaved millions with such bravery and unshaken fortitude , we will stand by him , oi fall with him in the struggle , and that this meeting highiy approve the conduct of the Charter Union , in having invited Mr . O'Connor to visit Aberdeen . " The resolution tvas seconded by Mr . Datcan Nicholson . He dwelt at great length on what Mr . O Connor had done for working men ; what he had suffered for them , and what in all probability he might still suffer even to life itself , and in conclusion , aroused the congregated thousands to a ' sense of that injustice which had been too long practised upon them , and which had been altogether occasioned by their own apathy in not demanding redress . The second resolution was moved by Mr . John Legge , in a speech of great
force . It was " That it is the opinion of the meeting that although the Parliament as presently constituted , be not the representatives oi the people , yet no harm can possibly accrue to us by demanding our rights through the slavish door left open by petition . Therefore this meeting approve of again petitioning the representatives of the aristocracy and money jobbers , in Parliament assembled , to enact or cause to be enacted into law tfeat document entitled ' the People's Charter ' , and that the said petition contain an earnest prayer for the immediate restoration of . Jlessrs . Frost , Williams , und Joees ; and the liberation of rill our Cirartisl- brethren presect ' j" confined in the corumon gaols throughout Great Britain . " The resolution was irifcSy seconded by Mr . Joseph Rowell and carried ucinlincusiy . Mr . Richardson , editor of the Lundte Chronicle , text addressed the meeting , and spoke with great ability . ILe meeting shortly afterwards separated .

ADDRESS OF THE MEMBERS OF THE ULOOMSBURY NATIONAL CHARTER ASSOCIATION TO THEIR FELLOW . MEN . Broihers in Bondage , —You no doubt feel the hand of oppression as well as those who now , through the columns of the Northern Star , address you . You , the producers of wealth , are suffering all the miseries ef slow starvation , while those who produce nothing are fattening upon the produce of your labour . Look around you , which way you will , lasiness and luxury meet you on one hand , while slavery and misery
meet you on the other . Why should this be ? Is it our fault that numbers are out of employment ? No , but through the workings of machinery the great manufacturers are enabled to do the work of many hands ; the men of course not being wanted are discharged : consequently , machinery , which otherwise would be a blessing , has , through bad Government and class legislation , become a curse . Are we not willing to work ? We answer for ourselves we are , but not willing to slave from morning till night , when we know that the profits of our labour are squandered away on a useless class .
Fellow-men , how is this state of things to be brought to a close ? We answer , by uniting together to obtain the People's Charter , without which we are convinced we can never hope to b * tter our condition . We therefore respectfully request your attendance on Monday evening in each week , to co-operate with us in our endeavours to obtain for the working classes their emancipation from their present degrading position . J . Moore , sub-Secretary .
