THE CAUSES of PREMATURE DECAY.—
Authors of eminence have ascribed the decline of the
Roman empire to the effeminacy of manners, Which precluded
resistance ; and this effeminacy they trace chiefly to viciuus
habits acquired in early life, by winch, in our own time, an
influential journalist has endeavoured to account for the de-
cline of population in the Asiatic provinces of Turkey.
The peculiar source of physical and moral degeneracy al-
luded to has at all times been specially deprecated by philo-
sophers and philanthropists. It besets inexperienced youth,
laying the foundation of future misery, poisoning the nuptial
cup with bitter malignity; destroying health, curtailing life,
and making it, during its brief career, a scene of anguish, from
the consciousness of humiliating infirmity.
The evil is but too rife in our age and country ; and expe-
rience can often discern the sad results in the early deaths,
the hereditary and perpetuated ailment 4, and the matri-
monial discords and snandals, described, in convential par-
lance, as " unaccountable " and "mysterious." In cases of
threatened injury to or suspension of faculties whose sound-
ness and vigour form su h a prominent constituent in human
happiness, sufferers may have their fears removed, the mis-
chief, however severe and inveterate, eradicated, and their
warmest hopes of restoration to life's prerogatives fully
realised.
Dr. L A.'MERT, M.D., has been engaged for 20 years in the
treatment of these disorders, and his treatise on "Self-Pre-
servation ' describes how all the attributes of Manhood are
