The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con-
sequences resulting from certain 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 recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of
their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded
the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is
entitled. The Author hat for a series of years been engaged in an
extensive practice in the treatment of these delicate complaints,
and has long directed attention to these enormous evils, from which
no grade of society is free. Their treatment has unfortunately teen
too generally confided to the care of unqualified and ignorant em-
Fides, who, with their pirated publications, assumed fcreign names
and titles, and pretended virtues of their patent nostrums, inflict
great injury on those who are induced to place faith in their preten-
sions. The serious con equences resulting from such mal-practice
snay easily be avoided if sufferers from these maladies were to finer
taro if their medical adviser be a member of the London College of
Physicians, Surgeons, or Apothecaries' Hall, as any one possessing
either of these qualifications usually appends it to his name, and thus
the legally qualified practitioner can at once be distinguished.

plans of business in the most patriotic manner, making corn
boad of peace and prosperity. Besides, E. Mosta and ox
oared
never neglect their old patrons and those who have long ho
them with their support, even though temporary interest might be
promoted by such transactions.
It is well known that E MOSES and Sox are the merchant tailors
of the Army and Navy ; that uniforms for a y service and complete
equipments for any country are s ionest obtained at their Establish-
ments, and their charges are considerably less than are customari y
m ; that every artistic and comfortable style of attire is presented
by them in the most accomplished workmanship and at the most
economical prices. They provide the best Dress for Noblemen,
Gentlemen, and Basins, men, Mechanics and Sailors, for Profes-
sional Gentlemen. Sportsmen, and all others. E. Mona and Son
have the esr'iest samples of New Materials for changes iii the sea-
son. and the most popular Fashions which will prevail ; the largest
and best-assorted stock of Hats, Caps, Hosiery Goods, Ladies' Cloth-
ing, and Youths' and Children's Dresses. Suoerior quality and very
economical prices are to be observed in every article.
In the Wholesa a Clothing, Root and Shoe, and other Departments,
E. Mows and • ore offer the greatest advantages to Merchants, Shia-
pers, and Emigrants, in the magnitude of the stock, suitability of the
goods, and very economical prices.
CAUTION.—E. MOSES and SON regret having to guard the
public against imposition, having learned that the untradesman-like
falsehood of " Being connected with their Establishment," or " It's
the same concern," has been resorted to in many instances, and for
obvious reasons, they beg to state that they have
