The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con-
;• q aences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses,
hid' have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man-
nod, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, any
:her class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is
articularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of
their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded
e health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is
entitled:
It is absolutely necessary that all men should know, that there are
.rinciples of personal management which cannot be violated without
ncrirring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed
• o heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties
.ay be mitigated, bow the sting of their bitterness may be removed,
Ind how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and above all,
at there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional
lerangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.
"he Antbor ha; for a series of years been engaged in an extensive
ractice in the treatment of these delicate compiaints, which have
I 'fortunately been too generally confided to the care of ignorant
emoirics, who inflict great injury on those who are induced to place
faith in their pretensions.

ROYAL PorAT
ECHNIO INSTITIITION.—Last evening
the first of a aeries
this institutionb of dramatic readings was given at
play was Mr. Sheridan Mr. Adolphus Francis. The
, Knowles's popular and classic
tragedy " Virginius.
rlir. Francis has many qualifica-
tions for a successful ,cand flexible voice, and :ler." He has a very pleasing
inconsiderable power of dra-
matic impersonation and in'
anvefrte dignity but real in-
out with admirable effect the
Roniaher, and the tender
tensity of feeling of the Ito
rbouutgchomplpeohseeidanpsntruiltdyinoefsstohfe
the
developed
of the de-
oennt virgin : while the
Hauteur
Siccius Den-
praiospeed with tatus, and the supercilious patrician
cemvir Appius Claudius, were both d
ade-
quate dramatic effect. tis the best
we
leaso can
f v
portraitr
give
to the reading to say, that it was best in the
more mas-
terly scenes of the poet—in the well-known
scene, and in that fine delineation of the madn
ginius which closes the tragedy. Where the main -
fea-
tures were so good, we are not inclined to criticise
minute faults. Mr. Francis has, no doubt, some faults
to conquer and some defects to amend, but he has, we
think, the powers requisite to attain a very prominent
I position in the branch of dramatic art to which he has
devoted himeelf. . .
