Ai—NY-be consulted, personally, or by letter, on
the'varions disorders of the nervous and generative system,
resulting from hivetileirremilarities and excesses, which have pro-
duced more misery in youth, degradation in manhood, and prema-
ture decay at all stages of life, than perhaps any other class of dis-
cases known to modern'plthologists. Long and practical experience
the 'treattnent of these diseases has proved that there are in exist-
ence secret causes of self-acquired miseries and disappointed hopes in
tr-bitdnee, traceable to certain pernicious habits, to which Nervous

erldleas modifications owe their almost entire origin.
It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are
rrlnciPlei of personal management which cannot be violated without
the heyday
grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed
heyday of inconsiderate self-indnigence, how these penalties
waY be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed,
!..nci how the evil and its oon.equenc es may be avoided, and above all,
rat there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional
'e,„rangernent to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.
OCTOK LA'MEIIT has for a long series of years been engaged
7 an extensive practice in the treatment of these delicate c0rn-

the taunts and envy of the hypocritical and mock-modest, has had
the confidence, through the 'medium of 'the public press, to direct
;,.ttention to these enormous evils, from which no grade of society is
'ell. In selecting this department of practice, he has been amply
ie:reArded by the great success that has attended his efforts in the
treatment of these cases, which are too generally confided to the
of unqualified and ignorant empirics, who, with their pirated
irlblications assumed foreign names and titles, and pretended virtues
