It has a Leather Diaphragm, with valve attached; it is simple in construction ; it can be easily applied to the Meter; it will govern all the lights attached to it; it will pre- vent all blowing at the burners ; it will require no attention after being set ; it will save 15 to 40 per cent of Gas.
N. B. - The passage-ways through it are always as large as the distributing pipe. The Gas Companies are applying the same principle to street lamps, for their own protection.

NEW SERIES OF THE boston Medical and Surgical Journal.
THE BOSTON MEDICAL AND SURGICAL JOURNAL has been issued every week, in an unbroken series, since the beginning of February, 1828, -its seventy-seventh volume closing January 30, 1868, and the period of its existence being exceeded by that of only one Medical Journal in the United States. The commencement of a new series, with such alterations and improvements as might be called for, and which were nnsuitable in a consecutive series ot volumes, has for several years been under con- sideration. The beginning of its fifth decade of years, in February, 1868, furnished a fit opportunity for a change of this kind, and Volume I. of a new series was then commenced. It is printed in a form of sixteen enlarged octavo pages, weekly, in double columns, the original communications in smaller type, and comprising about one-fifth more reading matter than heretofore. It will thus, it is believed, compare favorably, in general appearance and amount of matter, with any other medical peri- odical of the country. It is now under the editorial management of LUTHER PARKS, M.D., assisted by H. H. A. BEACH, M.D. ; and contributions are furnished by many of the leading physicians of Boston and vicinity, as well as of other parts of the country.
While most of the old features of " The Journal " will be preserved, it is hoped that enough of new will be added to make it more valuable to the physician than ever before.
The Journal will continue to be issued every Thursday. There will be two vol- utnes in a year, beginning in January and July. A monthly series will also be issued, on the first of each month, for distant subscribers, and others who may prefer it to the weekly series. Price, for either series, $1.00 a year, payable in advance. Orders by mail promptly attended to.

In nsing the Atomizer and Nasal Douche, the patient should apply to his physi- cian for the proper remedies.
A LARGE ASSORTMENT OF BEST PATTERNS from which to select, to meet the requirements of each case. If convenient, persons requiring Trusses should call at our establishment, where they can have a suitable Truss carefully fitted by a competent and experienced person familiar with the anatomy of hernia. When a call in person is impracticable, a careful description should be sent, stating whether the rupture is on the right or left side ; also the measure around the person two inelies below the top of the hip bone. If the rupture is at the navel, the measure should be around the boxty at the navel.

Of these goods we have several classes of silk and cotton, possessing different degrees of elasticity, the stout silk being usually the most satisfactory.

" 1503. CODMAN & SHURTLEFF, Boston, Mass. One Case Surgical Instruments and Atomizers.
" The Committee have no hesitation in awarding for this superb exhibition the highest premium. * * * The various other instruments for Inhalation of Atomized Liquids, and for Local Anæsthesia, were all apparently faultless, both in design and workmanship. The exhibitors are regarded as more especially deserving of the highest token of merit for having produced nothing except of their own manufacture. Gold Medal. (Signed), GILMAN KIMBALL, M.D., Chairman."
