could find its way into the hands of those who stiffer fr mm the com-

be saved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is of
leas importance, though it is that which the quacks most prize—
much money—. —This volume is well qualified to put an end to the
empirical system of treating Spermatorrhcea, and to placs the treat-
ment upon a more rational and physiological basis. It is, therefore,
likely to do much good."—Medical Circular, June 16, 1852.

The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearflll con-
sequences resulting from c ,tain 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 It+ perusal Is
particularly re •ornmencled to persons entertaining secret doilbts of
their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded
and privileges to which every human being is
the health, happiness,
entitled.
It is absolutely necessary that all men should know, that there are
principles of personal management which cannot be violated without
Incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed
the heyday of Incoasideeate self-iedulgence, how these penalties
may he mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may he removed,
and how the evil and its con equenc es may be avoided, and arbove all,
that there is scarcely any decree of physical infirmity or functional
derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.
The Author has for a series of years been engaged in an extensive
practice in the treatment of these delicate complaints, which are
unfortunately teen too generally confided to the care of ignorant
empirics, who inflict great injury on those who are induced to place
faith in their pretensions.
