burgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society,

The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful eon-
Vequmeee resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses,
wh'Eth have proauced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man-
hood, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, any
tether 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.
It is absolutely necessary thatall men should knew, that there are
Principles of personal management which cannot be violated without
Incurring grievous penalties, and when tasdom and regret succeed
the heyday of inconsiderate self-Indulgence, how these penalties
511aY be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed,
'and how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and above all,
that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional
derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.
The Author hal for a series of years been engaged in an extensive
aPraqice in the treatment of these delicate complaints, which have
c fortunately teen too generally, confided to the care of ignorant
eizeirice, who inflict great injury on those who arc induced to place
taith in their pretensions.j
