The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con-
Sequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses,
which have proauced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man-
perusal is
hood, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, any
Other class of disease known to modern pathologic Its
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.
It is absolutely necessary thatall men should know, that there are
Principles of personal management which cannot be violated without
the ~ n 3 grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed
--' uoyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties
maybe mitigated,be removed,
of their
how the sting
and how 'tile evil and its consequences may be avoided, and above allnal
,
that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity
or fatio
derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.
The Author has for a series of years been engaged in en extensive
practice in the treatment of these delicate complaints, which have
unfortunately teen too generally confided to the care of ignorant
