AN IMPORTANT DISCUSSION.—The
"Times," the "Lancet," and other leading journals
have been lately canvassing the social considerations in-
volved in " the amount of death and disease caused by vice."
Some interesting statistics are brought to bear upon the
inquiry ; but it would greatly add to their value if they in-
cluded the facts respecting the origin, the ravages, and the
prevention of that SPECIAL VICE, which wars more than any
other against the welfare of society—destroying the happi-
ness and disappointing the objects of matrimony, under-
mining the constitutions, blasting the prospects, embittering
and shortening the lives of its victims, and spreading desola-
tion through families.
The essential particulars relating to this great social evil
(the besetting snare of inexperienced youth and the curse of
maturity), together with ample instructions for removing its
dlects, and recovering health, vigour, and all the ennobling
privileges of our being, are contained in Dr. LA'MERT'S
