The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con-
wieenees resulting from c.rrtain habits, irregularities and excesses,
which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man—
hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps. any
other class of disease known to modern pathologists Its perusal is
particularly re -commended to persons enterta'ning secret doubts of
their
physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded
happiness, and privileges to which every human being is
entitled. The Author has for a series of years been engaged in an
ihrealth.
