THE SECRET MEDICAL ADVISES . BEING a practical Treatise on the prevention and cure of the VENEREAL DISEASE , and other affections of the urinary and sexual organs , in both sexes , with a mild and successful mode of treatment , in ail their forms and consequencea 5 especially Stricture , Gleets , * .-affections of the ' 'Bladdery Prostrate Glands , Gravel , &c . shewing also the dangerous consequences of Mercury , such as eruptions of the skin , pain in the bones , &c ., with plain directions for a perfect restoration : embellished with engrayingSi An ample consideration of the diseases of . women ; also nervous debility ; including a comprehensive dissertation on the anatomy of Marriage , imptiissance , celibacy , Rterility or barronness , and various other interruptions of the Laws of Nature . Also ; some animadversions on the Secret Sin of "V tiuth , which entails such fearful consequenceB on its victims . .,. ' ¦; . ^ ST This Work is undenia-bly 'tlxe mpst interesting and important that has hitherto been published on this subject , imparting information which ought to be in the possession of every one who is labouring under any secret infirmity , whether male or female . BY M . WILKINSON , CONSULTING SURGEON , &o . 13 , Trafalgar Street , Leedsi Of whom they may be obtained , or from any of his ¦" . . . ' . - ' ' " ¦ ¦ Agents . ; ; ' . ' ' ¦'¦¦ MR . M . W . having devoted Ma studies for many years exclusively to the various diseases of the generative and nervous system , in the removal of those distressing debilities arising from a secret indulgence in a delusive and destructive habit , and to the successful treatment of VENEREAL AND SYPHILITIC DISEASES / Continues to be consulted from nine in the morning till ten at night , and on Sundays till : tvfo ,- ^ -and country patients requiring his assistance , by making only one personal visit , will receive such advice and medicines as will enable them to obtain a permanent and effectual cure , when all other means have failed . In recent cases of a certain disorder a perfect cure is coiflpleted in one week , or no charge made for medicine after that period , and in those cases where other practititiohers have failed , a perseverance in his plan , without restraint in diet , or hindrance from business , will ensure to the patient * permanent and radical cure . A complete knowledge of the symptoms and treatment of these insidious and dangerous diseases , can only be acquired by those who are in daily practice , and have previously gone through a regular course of Medical Insteuction ; for ^ unforturtately , there are hundreds who annually fall victims to the ignorant use of Mercury and other dangerous remedies , administered by illiterate men , who : ruin the constitution by suffering disease to get into the systemj which being carried by the circulation of the blood into all parts of the body , th © whole frame becomes tainted with venereal poisoD , and most unhappy consequences ensue , at one time affecting the . skin , particularly the head and face , with eruptions and ulcers , closely resembling ^ and often treated as Bcuryy , at another period producing thei most violent pains in the limbs and bones , which are frequently mistaken for rheumatism } thus the whole frame becomes debilitated and decayed , and a lingering death puts a period to their dreadful sufferings . What a grief for a young person in the very prime of life , to be snatched out oftime , andfromall the enjoyments of life , by a disease always local at first , and which nevOT proves fatal if properly treated , as all its fatal results are owing either to neglect 01 ignorance . . - > . :... - ¦ ^ " ¦'¦ : ' .. ; ,: .- ¦¦ ' ¦ ¦ ¦ ' ° ; Mr . W . ' e invariably rule is to give a Card to each of his Patients as a guarantee for cure , which he pledges himself to perform , or xeturn hisfeei Tor the accommodation of either sex , . where distance or delicacy prevents a peraonal yisit , his PURIFYING ^ DROPS , price 4 s . 6 d . can be had of any of the following agents , with printed directions so plain , that theymaycure themselves without even the Knowledge of a bed-fellow . They are particularly recommended to betaken before persons enter into the matrimonial state , lest the indiscretions of a parent are the source of vexation to him the remainder of his existence , by afflicting his innocent but unfortunate offspring with the evil eruptions of the malignant tendency , and a variety of other complaints , that are most assuredly introduced by the same neglect and imprudence . ¦ ¦ - . ¦ - ¦ ¦ '¦ ¦ .

I was seized with violent pains ali over me , which nlU * mately / settled into a violent racking pain m the hip joint ; I had three doctors one after another and used willingly all the means they could devise without benefit . On my wife ' s asking the last one what he thought to my case , he replied , "Why these cases seldom get belter ; " meaning that it was likely to cost me my life .

At the time I commenced taking your medicine , it would have taken me most of half an hour to turn round in bed ; and in ten © r twelve days I was able to call on yon at your own sbop , I was really free , from pain after taking your medicine three days ; and , indeed , I think sooner than that .

Bsfore they came amongst us they produced their cards as as . sociates of the Royal National Repeal Association of Ireland , and one of the parties now in jail was proposed at the Corn Exchange by no less a personage than Daniel O'CosneU himself—( hear ) . The persoa who was turned out of our meeting to day is one of those -who denounced cs , and thongh apparently , and in all probability a harmless individual ; yet as he went away in bad company , and remained in that company till now ,
he ( Mr . O Higginsj did not deem it wiae or prudent to admit him without further inquiry . ( Hear , hear .

having been put into prison on a mocfe charge of sedition , and put into the same cell with men against whom there was evidence , and when the day of trial came , this nv . cfe prisoner appeared in his real character , which was that of a spt , and flippantly swore away the lives of his fellow prisoners .

MjNTROSE . —Graxd Victory of Principle Over Expediency . —On the evening of Tuesday last a general meeting of t ^ e inhabitants was called by handbills , in the Thistle Hall , by tbe Anti-Corn Law body , fo . - the pnrpose of hearing the Rev . Mr . Liw , of Forfar , give an account of his mission to the Conference still sitting in London . Bsfore the hour , ei ght o ' clock , the Hall was crowded almost to suffocition . Mr . Muckart , vice president , was called to the chair , who opened the meeting and introduced Mr . Law , who gave an eloquent account of the doings of the Conference—the heartrending misery and destitution so previlent in the land of freedom , as Britain is called , which struck terror into the minds of all but the callous , and the perpetrators of such atrocitks . Mr . L ^ w ia an able and
truly generous man ; one that is worthy of a better cause . He admitted in his discourse , in many instances , that no good can , or will , be got until the people be represented in the House of Commons . After the eloqceut lecturer concluded , a vote of thanks was heartily given , when David Strachan and Waikie asked a few qnestioca of ilr . law , which he answered in true Chartist iiyle : then the workies -went to work in good earnest , when the Rev . Mr . Hyslop rese , and stated that the meeting was got up for an express purpose and called upon the chairman not to allow any one to move any resolution unless conforming with its . object I
am , said Mr . Byslop , willing to go as far as any of you present . Call a meeting for this express purpose , and I will go the whole length with yen . Mr . Law stated that eTery one had a perfect right to move anythi ng he thought proper , wheii some one moved that this meeting be adjourned , and the chairman leave the chair , which wa 3 done—and the Rsv . Mr . Hyslop was unanimously appointed chairman , and acted the part of a good democrat—impartially . The good and tine of the cause oi liberty still adhered to their principles , notwithstanding the hisses , and shouts cf " Thrust them out , " of the corn craiks . Ddvid Stracban moved , ssd Divid Milne seconded , the following resolution : —
" We , the middle and working classes of Montrose , in public meeting assembled , havicg heard from the Ksv . Mr . Law an account of his mission to the Conference held in London at the beginning of the month , aia of opinion that the House of Commons as at present constituted , either will not or cannot do anything to relieve that distress which has so long and so heavily pressed upon the shoulders of the working classes , arid which i 3 now being felt by the middle class portion of tLs community ; ean see no other way by which our mutual condition can be ameliorated thin by adoptinz a plan by which the whole people may be fully , fairly , and freely represented ; and as we conceive the principles embodied in that document called the People ' s Charter qualified to do this , we , therefore , pledge on ? sel 7 e 3 to use every legal and con-. titutio = 3 l means within our power to have the same , a 3 soon as possible , made the law of the land . " An amendment was moved by Mr . Jamss Collison , an-J seconded by Mr . Georee Drummond , — " Tell it not in Forfar , let it not be heard in Luthermuir . " The secoadtr of the amendment , after explanations , found there was no difference between the amendment and the motion , only Mr . Drummond wished to expunge the word ' Charter altogether . The meeting seemed disgusted at such conduct , and on the amendment being put from the chair , only twenty-nine hands held np far it ; and on the motion being pnt , a denso forest of hands was up . and ii was carried with great acclamation . A vote of thanks was given to the chairman , who did honour to the class he belongs to . We may mention that the leaders of the anti ' s all made their escape before the motion was pat . Thus ended one of the first victories in this priest-ridden town ; -we hope it will be followed up with energy .

SHEFFIELD . f Receivedtoo lute for our last . ) TRIUMPHANT PROGRESS OF THE CAUSE . Hurrah for the Charter!—our Association numbers this day ( July 28 th ) One Thousand One Hundred and Fifty-five ! On Wednesday , a public meeting was held in Paradise Square , which was addressed by Messrs . Parkes and Edwin Gill , eighty-three new members were enrolled . Another public meeting was held in the Square , on Thursday night , which was addressed at great length by Mr . Harney . Thirty-five new members were enrolled . On Sunday last , Mr . Harney , aocompanled by a large body of the Sheffield Chartists visited Shire Green , four miles from Sheffield . The villages turned out -well , and seemingly listened With deep interest to the address of Mr . Harney . : ' - . . ;
In the evening , a glorious meeting Vwaa lield at Sky-Edge , one of the ont-districta of Sheffield . Sky-Edge Is an eminence looking down upon , and affording a splendid view of , Sheffield , a spot often frequented by tke Chartists in 1839 . Messrs . Harney , Evisson , and Edwin G 1 U addressed the meeting . Upwards of fifty new members were enrolled . . On Monday evening , a meeting called by placards was held , to take into consideration the propriety of electing delegates to attend the Manchester Demonstration on the 16 th of August next , and to attend the Conference , called to assemble in Manchester on that day . : ' . ' . - / . ¦ ¦ ¦¦ ¦ . ¦ ; '¦ : - ¦¦ ¦
As early as six o ' clock , a large number of persons had assembled in Paradise Square , from which the people adjourned shortly before seven o ' clock , first forming in procession in the Square , and in good order marching to Roacoe Fields . Here the Chartist National Anthem was Bung , and that staunch veteran , Mr . Wrag , oaviDg been called to ' the chair , opened the business in a brief but eltquent speesh . Mr . Harney followed , and in a lengthy address alluded to the anticipated battle with the Corn Law Repealers , and roused bis hearers to a high pitch , of enthusiasm , in expectation of the . coming contest . He concluded by moving the adoption of the following resolution : —
"That this meeting regards with undinuntshed horror and indignation the brutal and bloody attack upon the people of Manchester when assembled on the ever-memorable 16 th of August , 1810 , peaceably to petition for their just rights ; and thiB meeting pledges itself to agitate for the Charter , until it shall became the law of the land , and justice be done for thy horrible outrage committed by the drunken and ruffianly tools of a corrupt and tyrannical Government" '¦ Mr . Paekes seconded the resolution , entering into a detail of the horrible outrage spoken of in the resolution . Mr . P . was Iondly applauded . The resolution was then pnt and carried . Mr . Edwin Gill , in an excellent speech , moved the adoption of the next resolution : —
11 That the Chartists of Sheffield , being called on by the Executive to elect a delegate , or delegates , to represent them in the forthcoming Conference , to be keld in Manchester on the 16 th of August , we hereby elect Mr . George Julian Harney and Mr . Samuel Farkes as fit and proper persons to represent us in the aforesaid Conference , at the same time regretting that want of funds , in consequence ef general distress , prevents us sending more than two delegates to represent us in such an important meeting . " Mr . EvisON , in an able and energetic speech , seconded the resolution , which was carried unanimously . The meeting then sung— " We'll rally around him ;" and shortly afterwards formed again in procession , and returned to Paradise-square , preceded by a band of music that had volunteered its services . Arrived at the Square , Mr . Harney and Mr . Parkes again briefly addressed the people , exhorting peace and good order . The meeting was then dissolved .
The mass of people assembled on this evening was extremely large , and the enthusiasm greater than usual . Nearly a . hundred new members were enrolled . Tuesday Night , another first rate meeting was held in Koscod Fields , Mr . Evisson in the chair . Mr . Williams first addressed the meeting , and was followed by Mr . Edwin Gill , who read a letter ffem poor Joynea , lately deprived of his ernployent for attending the funeral of the murdered Holberry . - Mr . Gill ably commented upon this poor man ' s persecution . Mr . Parkes read a letter from Mr . Duncombe , M . P ., which was received with loud applause . Above sixty new members were enrolled . We now come to the crowning triumph of the week , the
GLORIOUS VICTORY OF THE CHARTISTS AND DEFEAT . OF THE LEAGUERS . It was a saying of the ancients that " those whom the gods mean to destroy they first drive mad . " This has been been shown in the persons of the Sheffield repealers , who , certainly must have token leave of their senses , when they decided upon abandoning tneir hole and corner mattings , and coming once more before the public : Tuesday morning , large placards posted through the town , announced the meetiDg . The following ia a copy : —
"To Thomas Ellin , Enquire , Master Cutler . We , the undersigned , request you will convene a public meeting of the inhabitants of Sheffield , to be held in Paradise-square , on the earliest convenient day , at twelve o ' clock , to take into consideration the propriety of presenting a respectful address to her Majesty , praying her not to prorogue Parliament until it has taken into consideration the wide-spread , unparalleled , and dsiiy-increasing distress of the country , and the probability of that distress being relieved by a repeal of the Corn and Provision Laws . ( Here followed tha signatures . ) in compliance with the above requisition , I hereby call a Public Meeting , to be held in Paradise square , on Weduesday next , at" twelve o ' clock at noon . —Thomas Ellin , Jun . Master Cutler . " Wednesday morning , green placards were posted on the pa-. t of the Fig-tree-lane Association . The following is a copy : —
" The last kick of the Whiga ! Chartists of Sheffield , a last attempt to delude and betray you is to be made to-day , by the treacherous Liberals ; who invite you to abandon your « Charter , ' for the miserable humbug of ' Corn Law Repeal . ' Rush , then , in your thousands , to Paradise-sqaare , at twelve o ' clock ; and by your united voices crush for aye and for ever the base , bloody , and brutal Whig Faction , who have betrayed and enslaved you before , and seek te play their old game of duplicity and treachery anew . Your undaunted Champion , Fergus O'Connor , is expected to be present ; th « a rally around him again and again ; ' Hurrah for the Charter , and no surrender !"
By the hour appointed , the square w . ts three parts rilled , and half an hour afterwards was crowded in every part , every iach of ground even to the church rails in Cainpo-lane being densely blocked up by the immense mass of people present .. A few minutes past twelve o ' clock proceedings commenced by a gentleman whose name we did not learn , proposing that in the abaer . ee of the Master Cutler , Wm . Fisher , Esq . should take the chair . This was se&snded , when Mr . Hamey proposed as an amendment that Mr . George Evisson , a working man , should take the chair . Mr . Edwin Gill seconded the amendment . On the question being put , Mr . Evisson was elected by a triumphant majority , amidst the clapping of bands and cheerB of the Chartists . The Chairman read the requisition , and , after a few excellent remarks , gave way ( or
Mr . Dunji , who in a lengthy , silky , plausible address , replete with the usual Whig fallacies , moved the adoption of tha following memorial :- — " The -humb ' e address of ihe undersigned inhabitants of Sheffield , chiefly of the working classes , in public meeting assembled , " TO THE QUEEN ' S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY , " Madam , —We , the undersigned , principally operatires of Sheffield , but part of your loyal subjects , respectfully beg to lay before your Majesty our ruinous condition . Thousands of us are unemployed ; we are dependent on parochial and othes charities , because the unjust Corn Laws have dfcstroyed our trades . "Tour . Majesty is a parent ; and ever may your offspring be virtuous and happy . But you have never known the pangs of hunger , anU have never heard your children cry for food . Judge , then , what our distress U , vrhen we assure your Majesty that these are sufferings with which many of us are familiar every day .
"Your Majesty ' s kindness has appeared on many occasions . We rejoice in a Queen that has shewn a tenderness of bean for her people that monarchs have seldom evinced . We earnestly thank you for your mandate to the clergy , to make collections for such of us as need alms ; bat your Majesty knows that the individual share of these subscriptions will not support us for more than a single day . ¦ ¦ •• : . : '¦ ¦ " " It is not charity , illastrious Madam , that we want ; tut the opportunity to earn our own support . We are for the most part laborious and industrious people , attached to order and peace ; but we have just reason to complain of the famine-creating Corn Laws , passed before your Majesty ' s birth , and supported by your Government and the majority of both Houses of Parliament . .
"It is impossible for us to describe our distress . Many of us in not more than half fed . Oar apparel and furniture are Bold , or pawned ; our wives and children are in rags ; we can neither procure them employment , education , nor medicine ; our sufferings are becoming intolerable ; the present is dreadful , bat the future will be indescribable , unleas the laws that restrict trade be instantly repealed . " We believe that an unfeigned affection to your Majesty is felt by all your subjects .. In that feeling we fully share . We think it , however , UDJusfc that your Majesty should be involved in the horrors which must arise from a people destitute of food ; and we are confident that , wheat tbe poor-rates fail , which tbey mnst do at no distant period , if the Corn Laws are not repealed , the country will realise the awful tiuth , that famine and civil order cannot long co-exist .
" We have . frequently appealed to tha Parliament , but in Tain . We turn , as onr last hope , to you Majesty , and implore you to command your Ministers to propose the repeal ef the food taxes , and to sreveint the
