Marriage rewires the fulfilment of several conditions, in order
tkat it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the
veil..which clovers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised,
and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many could
tt be traced to' physical disqualifications and their attendant disap-
pointmehts. Excesses are always injurious; the gift, which when
used la moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when
abused. the Prolific source of mischief and of greater or less injury
to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on
the nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate,
are productive of greater severity of misery to the ;Inman frame,
than aay other to which it is enbiect.
This work contains as accurate and complete account of the
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of
their relative conditions in health and disease. It deservedly
requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can
be of more importance than the preaervatien of the health
sad of the physical capabilities of which every man should
be possessed. It ikairtunetely happens that the unhappy
victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether aoquired
hi early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering
from their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a tear of ap-
plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so
frequently, bat erroneously entertained that these complaints are
beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking
for assiatanco where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he
forgets that accurate discrimination n ascertaining the causes of
disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva-
riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the
Medical man who can show by possession of the requisite legal
qualifications that lie is entitled to esteem and respect in his profes-
sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr.
L4122N1E la has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas
certify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a
guarantee for his professional experienee, which has reference almost
solely to the treatment of these diseases.
