Ad
Marriage reqaires the fulfilment of several conditions, in ore
that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could t',,"
veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be rals°,l,
and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many covw
it bo traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disal;
pointments. Excesses are always injurious; the gift, which lint
used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, .12,./
abused, the prolific source of mischief, and of greater or less ino
to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses,
the mature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dils
are productive of greater severity of misery to the human gain
than any other to which it is subject.
of
This work contains an accurate and complete account-
tif
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, ital.,
their relative conditions in health and disease. It deserve
requires the closest attention and study, for what subject ,c;
be of more importance than the preservation of the llegi„i`
and of the physical capabilities of which every man 01111„—/
be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unlla,w;
victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether
in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while stiffen.'
from their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear of sir°
plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread frequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints sre
ekla beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his se h.
, for assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus,
forgets that accurate discrimination in ascertaining the misty
disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, ins
riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to
.1
medical max who can show by his posse-sion of the requisite 111
qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his Pr°;;i:
sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended.
LA'MERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diPl°'" A
testify, and the great extent of his practice for many years le
„,,t
guarantee for his professional experienee, which has reference any
solely to the treatment of these diseases.
