hood iu its iimnatnre deelhie. embracing critical and prac-

"The Proper Study of Jfankintl is ¿MaH=," by J. C. Yc-l'SC,
M. 1)., author el"Compara!he Anatomy." etc., Graduate of
the'University «f Pennsylvania ; Honorary Member of tine
Royal College of Surgeons, elc. etc.
The above work is emphatically the book for the age-. It
¡a one of tlie most complete works of the kind thai han
ever been published, ¡.resenlmg as it dees the minute analysis of every form of venereal disease incident to hoth
sexes, and above all entering into and describing particularly the aivlnl work of thft* terrible disease no common
among young men, known as masturbation. The knowledge to be derived by every one in having a copy of thin
work in their possession is beyond conception ; as any person who has llie slightest reason to helieve that they are
afflicted with a disease, of wkich they have been ignorant,
ean, by referring to its page*, in a few minutes lully un
derstand the nature of that disease, aud he made aware
nf the effects attending it ; and thus tliey may in season
apply the proper remedies and avert its heretofore unseen'
progress, whieh was last undermining their constitution,
.ud would have resulted cither in death, or what is as awful to contemplate, destroying forever the health and happiness ofthe unfortunate victim.
In the prepara I ion of the work, the author has not only
given n practical ex j osit.ion of liis own labors, but has freely eonsiilled and compiled liom the works ofthe moj-t popular writers of lho day, 1 li up presenting a careful and
well digested compendium of the most important facis and
principles furnished by the ablest writers that have ever-
lived. This is sufficient, it is hoped, aa a test of it ai cura-
cy and ol lis unli.id.pracli.al  viiiu-  and . 1,1 ty.

Some six or ssven years, ajro, a tafcple were

the fact, which grieved ber very much, andnlmost
broke her heart. However, her heart did not break,

nice young man, w!io will maKe the widow a most
excellent husband, and will, in a measure, supply
the piase, now v&oantaiKl deserted, in the widow's
heart. After a great deal of per ua on, tl ¡widow fiaally agrees to marry again. Some two years
ago saa was united in marriage toasmaiil i3ized
man, although her first husband wa? a veiy large,
strappiag big fellow. Timestill rolled oa, and no

He was still in the land ofthe living, however,
at work in California. Having amassed'*a pile,"

His wife still retained his nam ■, although married
!o another, for tiie reason, that she be ng e i^age 1
in .business, with «gnspainted and cards prlntei,
¡t would he too expensive to change, and besides
all this, her old customers would not know i¡- r by
her. new name, and would, therefore, be likely to
deal with .some one else, not knowing her whereabouts. Husband No. 1, a;-; soon as he arrived, obtained a city directory to ascertain the location of
his wife, but was unable to discover it until last
Thursday night, about 9 o'clock. Heiinmediati ¡y
started lor his abode, and when be reached it, for
the purpofo of giving her an agreeable surprise,
entered without giving any alarm at the dour. The
first object tbat arrestedlii^ attcuiiou. to himamost
horrible sight, and which caused the green eyed
monsterjealousy. to fire his. brain almost to madness—[us wife was seated by thesideof, to him, a
stranger, and om.: elbow resting on his knee, as -iie
-leaned up to him" aud looked loving in his face.
The stranger sprang to his feet and demanded the
nature $ the business of the intruder.
She turned suddenly round, met husband No 1'.-
eye**, uttered a scream, sprang toward him, and
Ikiniel in his arms. She Boon recovered, and by
this time th° confusion had become general. Hus-
bandNo. 1 charged her with iníídeiity, and drew a.
pistol to shoot husband Xo. 2. Husband So. 2 cursed, and swore vengrance on theheadof the man
who had so dread id ily frightened kis ¡vile, and attempted io t-n.e her ont oftiiíi oiher'-s aims. The
wife had now entirely recovered, aud attempted to
explain, but her voice wasdrowucd by tha noise of
the others, and her own eobs and tears. Husband
No. 2 ordered the intruder to leave the iiouse. and
let his wife go. HusbandNo. 1 informed him that
she *.vas his wife, and tbat he had no notion of'leav-

Mr. Meek, who arrivejl here in the Equator front
Manila, furnishes us-with the following account of
the wreck ofthe -whaleship Canton, 1st ofNew Bed-
f.ird, A. J. Wing, master. The ship sailed from
Tahiti for the Marian and the Sandwich Islands.
On tiie night of March 5!h, at .12 45A.M.,shestrt=tek

173° 3S; West. Tin' sea was very high at the time,
and every wave made a clean breach over her. Ao
laud was visible. The crew managed tooling to
the wrack during the gloomy injurs 'oi night, and
at daylight contrived by the aid of one oi' the boats
and a liue carried to tbe desert sand Island oa which
they struck, io reach the shore in safely, but almost
worn out by their sufferings. There waa no water
or vegetation on the islam!, and starvation stared
them in itie iacc. On the üth the stern of tiie ship
was broken oh'by tho sea. and fortunately nineteen
casks of water floated ashore, and were fjccurcd,—
The same day tiie crew succeeded la saving three
more tii' the boats, and by the assistance oi e:i ex-
pert Kanaka swimmer were enabled to communicate through the;rough .seawith ¡he wreck, bum
which they saved aquantityóf bread ¿ad other
provisions. Shortly after die sido Went to pieces,
and her cargo of twelve hundred barrels of oil was
lost. Tho officers and crew, consisting of twenty-
eight persons, remained upon th'e i. h-..rd rfntii the
51st pf March, when finding their supplies getting
shortand no prospect of relief, with a lingering
and horrible death awaiting them if xUcy remained
where they were any longer, they put to sea in
their open boats, ana after forty-nine days of extreme hardship and de^iituiion, being reduced to
half a biscuit a day io each man. they arrived safely at Guam, one of the Marian IslanQs, belonging
to Spain, where every kindness was extended to
idem by the diovernor. Here th .. ■■
