MANLY VIGOUR : a Popular Inquiry into
the CONCEALED CAUSES of its PREMA-
TURE DECLINE ; with Instructions for its COMPLETE
RESTORATION, addressed to those suffering from the De-
structive Consequences of Excessive Indulgence in Solitary
and Delusive Habits, Youthful Imprudence, or Infection ; with
Remarks on the Treatment of Gonorrhoea, Gleet, Stricture,
and Syphilis. Illustrated with Cases, &c.

lers in the United Kingdom.
The various forms of bodily and mental weakness, incapa-
city, suffering, and disease, faithfully delineated in this cau-
tiously written and practical work, are almost unknown, gene-
rally misunderstood, and treated upon principles correspond-
ingly erroneous and superficial, by the present race of medical
practitioners. Hence the necessity for the publication of a
timely safeguard, a silent yet friendly monitor; or, where debi-
lity has made threatening inroads, the means of escape and the
certainty of restoration. The evils to which this book adverts
are extensive and identical in their secret and hidden origin,
and there are none to whom, as Parents, Guardians, Heads of
Families, and especially of public Schools, is confided the care
of young people, who ought to remain for a moment devoid of
that information and those salutary cautions this work is in-
tended to convey. Not only are the most delicate forms of
generative debility neglected by the family physician, but they
require for their safe management the exclusive study of a life
entirely abstracted from the routine of general practice, and
(as in other departments of the profession) attentively concen-
trated in the daily and long-continued observation requisite for
the correct treatment of sexual infirmities.

If we consider the topics touched upon, either in a moral or
social view, we find the interests and welfare of mankind
seriously involved. The effects of licentious, indiscriminate
and secret indulgence in certain practices, are described with
an accuracy and force which display at once profound reflec-
tion and extensive practical experience.
The best of all Friends is the Professional Friend : and in
no shape can he be consulted with greater safety and secresy
than in " Lucas on Manly Vigour." The initiation into
vicious indulgence—its progress—its results in both sexes, are
given with faithful, but alas I for human nature, with afflicting
truth. However, the Authors have not exposed the evil with-
out affording a remedy. It shows how " Manly Vigour"
temporarily impaired, and mental and physical emasculation,
produced by uncontrolled indulgence of the passions, can be
restored; hew the sufferer, who has pined in anguish from the
consequences of early indiscretion—afraid almost to encounter
his fellow man, can regain the vigour of health and moral
courage. The work is written in a concise and perspicuous
style, displaying how often fond parents are deceived by the
outward physical appearance of their youthful offspring ; how
the attenuation of the frame, palpitation of the heart, derange-
ment of the nervous system, cough, indigestion, and a train of
symptoms indicative of consumption or general decay, are often
ascribed to wrong causes ; and instead of being the natural re-
sults of congenital debility or disease, are the consequences of
an alluring and pernicious practice, alike destructive to the
mind and body.
Although a newspiper is not the ordinary channel for the
expression of opinion upon the merits of a medical work, this
remark is open to exception in any instance where the public,
and not the isolated and exclusive members of the profession,
are the parties addressed. Upon
that which is directed to
men indiscriminately, the world will form its own opinion, and
will demand that medical works
for public study should be
devoid of that mysterious technicality in which the science of
medicine has hitherto shrouded its own ignorance. The work
before us treats of subjects we believe generally, yet very
strangely, neglected by the medical attendant, and requiring
doubtlessly ( as in operative midwifery and the surgery of the
eye) an entire devotedneEs to a deeply important branch of
study. The tone of this book is highly .moral, and it abounds
in well-written, harrowing, yet correct displays, of the suffering
consequent upon unbridled sensualism. No human being can
be the worse for its perusal ; to multitudes it must prove a
warning beacon, a well-told appeal to reason, a permanent
blessing. It is written in a clear, intelligent style, and is evi-
dently the production of a mind long and practically conver-
sant with the diseases of the most delicate division of the humn
organization.
he security of Happiness in the Marriage State is the chief
anxiety of all ; but many dread entering upon the wedded
union, through a secret fear of unfitness for the discharge of
matrimonial obligations. This essay is most particularly ad-
dre •sed to all suffering under a despondency of the character
alluded to ; and advice will be found calculated to cheer the
drooping heart, and point the way to renovated health.

The following are a few of the numerous testimonials this
popular work has received, and which the limits of an adver-
tisement will only allow of being published :
The rage for books in all departments • f Science, literature,
and the arts, was, we believe, never so prevalent as at the pre-
sent time. The unavoidable consequence of this is, that we
meet a very considerable proportion of indifferent, useless, and
even bad books. With the force of this prejudice on our
minds, we with no little reluctance were induced to peruse
Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled "Manhood ;" nor did it re-
quire much perusal fully to satisfy us that the book was not
one of the common stamp. The scientific views taken by the
authors of the source and origin of many of the most distressing
effects of certain depraved habits, fully establish their claim to
the character of experienced and judicious surgeons. To
quote passages from the work in proof of our assertion would
be departing from the established rules of the daily press. The
result, however, of our careful perusal of the work, has been
to impress us with a thorough confidence in the talent and
skill of the authors, and to satisfy us that those entrusted with
the care of youth are not a little indebted to them for fur-
nishing them with a means of preventing some of the most
frightful maladies to which flesh is heir.—Old England.
Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled "Manhood," is one of the
few books now coming before the public on such a subject which
can lay claim to the character of being strictly professional, at
the same time that it is fully intelligible to all who read it.
The moral and medical precepts given in it, render it invalu-
able.—Magnet.
The perusal of Messrs. Curtis's book entitled " Manhood,"
has really astonished us by developing a series of maladies, the
never-failing consequence of the vicious habit of which it
treats. The clear connexion pointed out between the assigned
cause and the effects is perceptible to every capacity. We
strongly recommend the work.—Age.
The multitude of books daily coming from the press, some,
nay most of them of a very questionable tendency, made us ex-
tremely reluctant to take up another. Having, however, been
induced by the character given of this work by an intelligent
friend, we ventured to open its pages, and now feel no hesita •
tion in saving that we arise from its perusal instructed and
edified. The clear exposition of the source of many of those
diseases which proves so fatal to youth, and which are set
down by the every-day observer as the result of common
causes, *Aril as exposure to cold, sudden vicissitudes of tempe-
rature, hereditary taint, &c., is truly convincing and extre-
mely satisfactory. We say " satisfactory," inasmuch as Messrs.
Curtis have shown that many diseases, such as Pulmonary
Consumption, Epilepsy, &c., hitherto the opprobria of medi-
cine, may, when taken in proper time, and submitted to judi-
cious treatment, be brought to as favourable a termination
as any other class of ffec
tions. We do not think we go too
far in saying that socie y is deeply indebted to the authors for
producing so useful, so much wanted, so valuable, and so truly
moral a book.—Conservative Journal.

We recommend the work entitled " Manhood," &c., to the
careful perusal of persons of all classes. The moral as well as
physical advantages sure to result from such perusal, will be
most readily recognised and felt by those who stand most in
need of them.—Statesman.
