=STERILITY.—Whatever is unproductive is with-
.'" out intrinsic value. Man and his Maker alike condemn that
?Web " yields ne fruit," and we find large tracts of land abandoned
for the same reason thit caused the barren fig tree to be cursed.
ls curse clings to Sterility in every shape ; it brings upon the earth
'amine. But the mtledtction breathes loudest and deepest into the
...Prat' of thove of the humipt race who remain childless in a community
Pilch must altogether fail, without continual additions. Not only
r such encounter the silent scorn or pity of their fellow creatures,
but their own hearts condemn them ; Wealth brings no consolation
In the wifeless bosom—brings no return for the childless hems.
It is a• remarkable fact that the unproductiveness of soil and
Tecies arises from similarity of cause. Some lands are
the produce of vitiated strata that yields an offspring as
unhealthy as itself. Others nurture in their juices the poison of
nlinerals, which form the foe to vegetation. Others again lose value
' by
too early worked, before they are fit for cultivation, Some
80118, originally fertile, become barren by excess of tillage; others
are spoiled by unwholesome manures ; and others, again, by the
.rant of perseverance and nerve In the husbandman. Mark the ana-
logy ! Man also is too often vitiated by the parent from whom he
spring.. Man is too often ruined by the indiscriminate use of mine-
141s. such as mercury, &e. Man also tries his constitution too early,
and avertasks it too late. Man, be unwholesome contact can also in-
'et his frame ; and, to- Tender- the comparison complete, man can
render a naturally vital constitution unproductive through ignorance
()this orga iize.tion and diffidence in his powers. Nor does the analogy
Cease here. The detriments to cultivation above detailed have iieen
recently se entirely overcome by modern improvement in agricul-
ture, that farmers are now enabled to produce crops almost from
atone itself; and. in like manner, Sterility in the human race is now
removable through the profound discoveries in physic which enlighten
the present age. In testimony of this, a volume has recently been
produced which fills the heart with hope and is calculated to remove
Sterility altogether: It is from the pen of Messrs. J. L. CURTIS
.AND CO., Consulting -Surgeons. 7, Frith- street , Soho-square,
London, and bears the—title of " MANHOOD: The Causes of its
Premature Decline, with Plain Directions for its Perfect Re-
storation;" and is sent by W. STRANGE, bookseller, 21, rater-
noster-row, London post-paid, in a sealed envelope, by initial or to
any address, for 28:6d. in postage stamps, secure from observation.
