The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con-
-3 ouences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses,
vhich have produced more misery in Youth, degradation In Man-
,:ood, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, any
;titer class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is
larticularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of
their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded
the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is
e atiti ed
It is absolutely necessary that all men should know, that there are
Jrinciples of personal management which cannot be violated without
incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed
:he heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how, these penalties
',ay be mitigated, hew the sting of their bitterness may be removed,
Ind how the evil and its consequences maybe avoided, and above all,
that there Is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional
lerangement to which the timely aid of science e,annot apply a cure.
f'he.itnthor has for a *series of years been engaged in an extensive
;ractice in the treatment of these delicate comptaints, which have
u,' fortunately been too generally confided to the care of ignorant
empiric, who inflict great injury on those who are induced to place
faith in their pretensions.

THE CLOSE or THE HARVEST..There are few districts
in Devonshire in which the harvest is not now com-
pleted ; and the accounts from almost every quarter are
of the same satisfactory nature. The grain crops
generally have been exceedingly good, and, on the whole,
above the average. The wheat crop varied somewhat in
different localities, but except in a few instances there
has been little cause for complaint. Smut made its ap-
pearance here and there, but it did not extend far, and
consequently caused little injury. On the whole the
yield was large, and the grain exceedingly good. Barley
and oats have also been a good crop, though there have
been more variations than in wheat. Potatoes are un-
fortunately affected with the disease, though not to such
an extent as has been generally reported. Still there is
no denying that it does exist, and it has already had the
effect of raising the price. The crop of apples, to which
great attention is paid in Devonshire, is, generally
speaking, much below the average, the orchards in many
places haying scarcely any fruit on the trees.
