Tho Work which ia now presented to the public is the result of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affections , which for some unaccountable reason have been either altogether overlooked , or treated with apathy , and almost indifference , by the ordinary practitioner . To enter into tho details of these affections , to point out their causes , and to mark the terrific consequences , social , moral , and p hysical , which are sure to follow fro » indulgence in certain habits , would be entirely out of place in an advertisement . We have no hesitation , however , in saying that there is no member of sooiety , by whom the book will not be found interesting , whether such person hold the relation of a PARENT , A PRECEPTOR , or a CLERGYMAN . — Sun , Evening paper .

DEFEAT OF " MR . WALTER'S MEETING " AT THE CROWN AND ANCHOR , AND TRIUMPH OF THE CHARTISTS . A meeting , advertised for twelve to-day , took place at one o'clock , " to remonstrate against thu continuance of the Poor Law Commission . " Mr . Walteb , on takiug the chair , said , —Though he bad no share in calling the meeting , ho -had readily obeyed the summons to take the chai r ; and he trusted that the more opulent of the community wonJd feel that socioty could not subsist in this or any other country where a wide chasm Beparited the affluent from their more humble fellow creatures . There was no disaffection or turbulance resulting frrm tho law , whieh he had not predicted at the
time of its introduction : it -was stated at first that the law was only to be an experiment ; now they seek to . make that law perpetual , for whether the ministry seek to renew the term for five years , or for ten , signifies nothing , tho drift is to perpetuate it ; but before the term is expired for which they may renew it , there will be a convulsion in the country . ( Hear , hear . ) He then referred to the statement made by Lord John Russell in the Honse of Commons , that Chartism waa to be ascribed to tbe agitation got up in opposition to tha New Poor Law . Thoy had all heard tho history of tae unfortuaatfl , and he would fay , mi ? t ; u ; ded criminal . Frost . ( Cries of" No . " "He ' ^ an honest man . '' ) Well , he ( the speaker ) still thought
that he was criminal , because the constitution ] ft open peaceable meana to procura a redress of # rjevances ; though , undoubtedly , tbe legislature ought to havo paid great dfferonoeto the opinions of such oiv : i ai Mr . Fro 3 t . Ho (\ lr . Walter ) had receiv 3 d two letters from Mr . Frost , when the latter held the V ; " : a * . i ( in of Mayor cf Newport , and when he had - e-. u juit appointod a guardian of the poor . Iii one t' ilur > c letter .-:, M ; . Frost expressed his opinion that ihe poor law dietary table was insufficient to sustain lie . Vet , the Board of Guardiaus were cwnp- ;' . ed to ad .-pt one of six of such tables , seat by the Tc-or Law Commissioners , and ho iFro ^ tj wou ' . d not , in tha situation be held , ¦ vhuther be . i . nxnded the Poor Law Commissioiier . -i
or no . allow those who were unfortunately reduced to seek relief , to bo starved under their regulation ; . ( Loud and general cheering . ) In the second letur , Mr . Fri < s > t r-XjTcssed his conviction that tho hatred to the Poor Law vtus strongly increasing ; and that it was monstrous tu think that three hired men f \ vju 1 u have so much power in thrir hand * , while iLe Buarcis of Guardians were mero ciphers ; ¦ . hough , if it were not for the Guardians in populous places , the p ^ or would be much worse off . ( Loud , long , and continued cheering . ) His ( Mr . Waiter ) correspondence \ rhh Mr . Frost begun and ended with thase letters . He contended that the New Poor Law , in operation and in apprehension , stimulated that feeling which eventually broke out in
overt aces of ' . reason . [ Messrs . Wakley and Duncombe hero entered the room , and were louuly cheered . ] The Commissioners would not allow the Guardiaiu to give the p-.-or one ounce of foou beyond the allowance in their dietary tables , but the Board was left the odiuns po . ver of reducing it , if they could s&feiy do su . In the more populous districts the Commissioners dure uot apply the whoJo rtgoure of the law ; lor the workhouses have been so crowdeu that the Guaroiana Dave been compel . ml to administer ont-dosr relief on their miserable scale . . Mr . Waiter tiieu reaJ a letter , in which it was asserted tnat poor families had subsisted for several days on Swede turnips , rather than submit to the infamous r . ^ ulatioiis ol this odious law . One of tho iie > t regulations ( .-aid ht ) of our excellent church Cloud laughter ) was , that ihe poor were entitled to
the firsi care . Bishup Hall cajs , " No miiehieF is so derijisa as when it ie claaked with piety . " ( Loud and general cheering ) The Commissioners say that the duty of supporting parents aud children is so a'irongi ' y implaated in our nature as to ba observed even amui . 'jj savages ; and yet , that England is the on . y European nation where that duty is neglected;— he ( Mr .

Member took the chair , aud called upon the mover of tho iirbt resolution .
Dr . Ma . uns ? ll said , as a stranger , lie would rely upon ihsir iudul ^ etsce for a few mo ments only . Ho b ; ^ iui by readiug a long resolution , staling vhat the attempt to conlinue the power of the Comisnissioneris waa . i ! . ke ucprincipled , treacherous , » nu baso . He ( clic sccaKrrr )~ thou ;; ii opposed , tolo cce ' o , to the present Poor Law , ttdl thought tLe pocr ha i a rialu to relief , lie next read a letter t ' rutn Mr . Uoyts , stating , ia resigning his suuaion as a guardian , tiiat the- law was cue for stripping the j > oor ofthtit last reniuiiiin ^ ri ^ ht , unuur iircieuoo ot iriviiiK thtin
eiBp : i » Tiueiit ; to rob the rate-payer othis inonty ; and to piaco those who violate the order of the couimissio ! era ui- 'Oii the trcaduiili ior a mouth , without even jriai by jury . ( Shame , shame . ) The Gunmi ^ sioncrs have puoh .-hed orders , makiug it penal ( or & reporter from tLe public press to be present at any meeting of Guaruiaus ; and one ot the Guardians who > liacl exposed a most flagitious job received a letter from the Government , ytating mas his services as ined ' . cai attendant to the luuaiic asylum would be dispensed wah it" he continued to act a- ) guardian . The speaker gat down , louuly cheered .
Mr . Haxso . v said they bad taken tho legal and constituuunal means of remonstrating with the House ot Cominon 3 on tlu attempt to re-appoint the three despots of Somersst House ; and to petition the legislature not ti > carry out this ilctestable measure any further . Having referred to the plurality of votes , ho averred that if , in the late inclement weather , private charity had not been extensively applied , huuureds must have d ; ed from actual Etarvano ::. In tLe last report of the
Commisstonev ^ , tn-: y put lorward to the Houl-g of Commons the best u ' . etary table , whtre fifteen ounces of m-.-j . i are allowed par week —( a cry of "read the Chartist Circw ")—instead of that table which allows only live ounces a week . Ho trusted that anything of a political feeling would bo thrown aside ; they had a ^ senibkd for a , humane and a particular purpose ; aud they bad seen that the iut . roenction of ether topics had destroyed the effect of many meL-: a ; g « . ( Loud laughter , amid which the speaker .-at down . )
Mr . Clkavl , amid tremendous cheering , moved the followiii ^ ameudmens : — '' That this meeting , while it would solemnly record its detestation of the principles and the adminisiiation of the Ntw Poor La-w , seesiio efficient remedy for tl . at and numerous other bad laws under which tbe industrious classes of thi 3 coumry suiFur , until class legislation be abolished , by every man capable of bearing arms in defence of this country , exercis \ Ut his coiiStituiional Ti ^ ht to vote i ' or xho ' e per- ? ous who make tha lawa which all classes are called upun zo obey . "
The man who was most anxious to serve the cause of liberty and of the poor (> aid Mr . Cleave ) would hear fairly and fully every man . who addressed them ; there was but one feeling in that meeting—a KOiemn and determined feeling of detestation against , both the r-riie'pl ^ s and the practices of tho Poor Law Coumissiuners ; the Whigs havy called Bomo of tho people Tory-Radicals ; but there was no isuate lova of Toryism in them , aud if they had played into tho har . < L = of any party , it was to endeavour to destroy one faction through the agency of another : they all ki ; e > v the history of Mr . Walter ( loud checT 3 ami much inteTruption ); they were , however , indebted to the paper with which he was connected—the Times—( loud groans );—for its
oppofcinon to the Poor Law ; ha road a dietary table , which first saw tho light through the means of that paper ; in that table fivo ounce 3 of animal food were allowed on a Sunday for the whole we * k—( hear);—but owing to the exertions of some influential parties , this table wa 3 amended , by the allowance being divided , and fwo and a half ounces given on Sunday , and the other two and a half on Wednesday . ( " Shame . " ) The food allowed to the convicted prisonei-3 in Tothill-fields House of Correction was more than that allowed to tbe paupers in the workhouses ; nay , it was even mora than was enjoyed by tho free agricultural labourer ? . For the people to remonstrate with such a Houso as the present , would bo madness ( loud
shouts , aud long-continued cheering ); the meeting s&emed to think with him , that the reformed House must itself be reformed , and that the unwholesome a : id debilitated constituency must be strengthened by a strong infusion of the democratic spirit . ( Tremendous cheering . ) - The infamous wars planned by the aristocracy were all entered upon to keep back Universal Suffrage ; and of what use , then , would it be to talk about tbe Poor Law , when , if the Whigs were out of office to-morrow , the accursed Bill would be continued by the Tories . If they thonght with him , they wonld pass that amendment . ( Loud cheers . ) With these feelings he moved the amendment , and committed it to their goodly keeping , quite content with the issue .
Mr . Spure seconded the amendment . He had prepared an addendum to the remonstrance ; but they were not there bo much to deprecat e the evils of the Poor Law Bill , as to seek the mcaus of remedying it . The Chairman had alluded to John Frosthe never would have been transported , bad he not opposed thoso who sought to oppreaa the poor ; but they would allow him to say tnat they would goon have him back again . ^ Several distinct rounds of applause were given as Mr . Spurr concluded . ) Mr . Boggis Bupported the amendment .

Tho Chairman , before patting the question , . rea <* a letter from Lord Stanhope , deprecatory oi tW New Poor Law , and stating that the industrious classes should ba fully represented ; and he ( . Mr . Walter ) suggested , that Mr .. Cleave should withdraw the amendment , to preserve unanimity . Mr . Ctsave dissented . - The partizans of the Chairman besought Mr . Cleave to compromise , > but without effect ; and , ultimately , amia load cries for the amendment , Mr . Waklby rose , and stated that nothing could be more untrue than the statement made that day , that he bad promised to support the Poor Law Amendment Act . Forfiveyears he was against it for oven a day ; from the bottom of his soul he detested it . He had a mixeu motive in cominsr herefirst , to concur with them in expressing their detestation at the infamous law ; and , secondly , to record
his respect for the honourable chairman . ( A . cry" He won't give us the Suffrage . ") He ( the chairman ) was one of the four Tory members who voted for the roeall of the Dorchester labourers . ( Loud and . enthusiastic cheerina . ) Ho ( Mr . Wakley ) uever w ^ uld forget suck noble and disinterested acts ; and he knew no single act of Mr . Walter ' s against the people , except on the question of the Bunrage . ( A y j ce _ " Qjye us that , and we'll get the test . " ) He agreed with those who thought that Parliament would never be properly constituted till the working classes wero fully and fairly represented—( loud cheer?)—and cordially agreed with Tboth tho motion and the amendment ; but he thought the object for which they had assembled claimed their undivided attention . He recommended thein , therefore , to carry their smcadmoat at the end of the resolution . (" Nono" ) - ¦
, . A gentjoman , who announced himself as a radical reformer of twenty years , said Mr . Wakley must know that the Houso of Commons , as at present constituted , would not listen to their prayers ; and ho { the speaker ) was , like thomselros , for the amendment . ( Loud cvies of "question" being raised , Mr . Walter said they had met there for a distinct object ; and he would net consent to the introduction of any political question . ( Hisses and gro .: n ' . ) He had been al great expense in getting up the meetiny , aud lie should dtcline to pat the amendment .
A scene now ensuod that bafflas description . The wholo meeting , with the exception of a score of persons at tho utmost , vented their indignation at thia impudent defiance of the opinion of tho meeting . At length , Mr . Wall moved that Mr : Walter do leave the chair , which waa seconded , and carrioa almost unanimously ; Mr . Neesom was tnen elected to that post ; Mr . Walter would not " quit ; " and for some time two chairmen contended for tho control of the moeting ; who , however , would not bo controlled , so long as Mr . Walter remained as chairman . At length , Mr . Wells , the newly-eleccd oonainoa-counf . ihnan , obtained a hearing , and sait ' , auor a storm thow generally cunio a cairn ; and he , therefore , moved tiie adoption of a remonstrance to the Houso of Cjoimond ; which being read by the secretary , aud seconded .
Mr . Lee said , he would not allow the " brave London garrison , " as thoy had been justly denominated , to stuUify themselves , after having nobly done their duty , in spite of the gross partiality of their ex-Chairman ; thoy had adopted au amendment ,- declaratory of their having no isopo of redress till the whole people were -fully represented , and yet they were about to romon pirate with a House , whose political right of existence they repudiated . He , therefore , moved , "tftat Mi * . Walter , by his gro-ss partiality in refusiiifc'to put the amendment , had justiy incurred the cen > uro of tne meeting , wnich was thereby accorded to him : and that , having declared their . sentiments , this meeting do now peaceably separate . " 3
This proposition , which found adozen " seconders , ' was received with tutuultuoua chooriug ; in the mid .-t of which tho Hon . Member for Berkshire , accompanied by Messrs . Buncombe and Wakley , and about a dozen other gentlemen , retired , greeted with palpable tokens or" disapprobation . The Chairman put Mr . Leo's motion , which was adopted utin , ninwusly , and the assembly Tory peaceably s < parated .
