IMPORTANT TESTIMONIAL

Copy of a Letter from Colonel hawker, the well-known Author on

" Guns and Shootlag."

"Longparisli House. near Whitchurch,
October 21,1846.

" Sir,---I cannot resist Informing you of the extraordinary effect
that I have experienced by taking only a few of your lozenges. I
had a cough for several weeks that defied all that had been pi e-
scribed for me, and yet I got completely rid of it by taking about half
a small box of your lozenges, which I find are the only ones that re-
lieve the cough without deranging the stomach or digestive organs.
" I am, Sir, your humble servant,
" P. ii.iwKER.
" To Mr. Keating, 79, St. Paul's Churchyard."

LOVE is the leading feeling of the human
breast. Mere exalted than mere passion, it soars high above
every other impulse of nature, and is not only stronger than avarice,
but more engrossing even than ambition. No man is exempt from
its influence, or can avoid its sway ; and business, pleasure, philo-
sophy, and divinity itself become neglected under the enthralling
Power of LOVE, which, unlike most things, increases in intensity
with time, until it receives the sacred consummation of marriage.
Wben union does not take place, however, this passion, this
fervour, this golden tide of the manliest feelings becomes a deadly
Pelson in the heart, which now darkens, as it before bright-
ened, all things upon earth. How is it that men, of most un-
thangeable habits, will change at the very altar, and after a life-
tirae
_spent in the fulfill/len, of every engagement, snap the very con-
tract asunder which should be most binding to an honourable mind?
It is the effect of conscience. The Lover, by enervation of early
habits, or the results of secret disease, knows himself to be
disqualified, and dares not enter a state which has been
instituted by Divine Law for the fulfilment of important
ends. The wretched condition of such a being must subsequently be
beyond measure deplorable 1 Loving and beloved, he entails the
most miserable disappointments on the object of his choice, and upon
himself a desolation the most horrible, when the simple possession of
natural attributes would change the scene, and yield to both a life of
Unalloyed happiness. The subject is interesting, and deserves the
attention of all. These desirous of investigating it will find the
fullest and most satisfactory information in the little work entitled

Thl treatise is the result of a long course of study in a peculiar and
much neiglected branch of medical practice, and the author havineoh-
tained the highest medical honours, is a guarantee for his pro

ment of these diseases.
