ment of the nervous system, cough, indigestion, and a train Of
symptoms indicative uleonsumptitui or general decay, are often
ascribtd ttl'wriing causes; and instead Of being the natural re-
sults of congenital debility or disease, are the Consettliene& bf
an alluring and pernicious practice, alike destructive to the
mind and body.

Although a newspaper 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 prefession,
are the parties addressed. Upon that which is directed to
men indifcriminately, the world will form itsnwn opinion, anti
will demand that medical works for public study should be
devoid of that Mysterious technicality in which the sc►ence 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 devotedners 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 sensualinn. No human being can
be the worse for its perusal ; to multitudes it must prove a
warning beacon, a wed-told appeal to reason, a permanent
blessing. It is written in a clear, intelligent style, and is evt-
dently the production of a mind long and practically conver-
sant with the diseases of the most delicate division of the human
organization.

The 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 various positions of Lover, Husband, and Parent, which
the world are severally anxious to fulfil, are the inherent privi-
leges of mankind, and but for the accidents of mortality would
be awarded equally to all. To such, among others, this essay
addresses itself; and, by its perusal, many questions may be
satisfactorily adjusted,
that admit of no appeal, even to the
most confidential friend. To fan the spark of hope, to dissi-
pate groundless alarm, to restore failing confidence, and point
to the means of securing a happy old age, is no trifling recom-
mendation of an effort directly tending to the social and moral
welfare of all classes of the community.
Mr. La'Mert is to be consulted daily, at his residence, and

cation; and in all cases the most inviolable secrecy may be re.
