" Manhood.' A Medical Work.—To the gay and thought less we
trust this little work will serve as a beacon to warn them of the
danger attendant upon the too rash indulgence of their passions,

" Manhood.' By J. L. Curtis, and Co.—Their long experience

The Parent, who beholds his beloved child pining away, and fast
approaching to a premature grave, in consequence of some disease,
which, for want of careful investigation of its real cause, has been
set down to the score of consumption, will, on perusing this work,
be astonished to findw, that in nine-tenths of the cases of young sons sot both sexes, ho perish of what is called pulmonary cper-
on-
sumption, heart disease, tabes, &c., the sole and exclusive origin has
been the indulgence in certain destructive habits practised by youth
much more frequently than it is at all suspected.

ALARMING MORTALITY AT MONTROSE.—Making
all due allowance for the increase of our population, we
are safe in saying that the mortality during the last
month has been greater than it has been for the last
thirty or forty years. Typhus fever, smallpox, measles,
cholera and many other diseases, have visited us in the
above mentioned period, but none of these disorders have
proved nearly so fatal in so short a space of time as the
scarlet fever which now rages in the town with great
virulence. In a population of less than 16,000, there
have been more than 100 deaths during the past month,
which is one out of every 160 of the inhabitants, and
fully four times our average mortality. We do not say
that all these have died of scarlet fever, but the great
majority of the deaths have been from this disease,
which has been dreadfully fatal among children, more
especially such as had weakly constitutions. Many
families have lost one, and in some cases two of the same
family have been carried to the churchyard together
and laid in the.same grave. The places of the town that
have suffered most have been Clerkholm and Union-
street, which are two of the cleanest parts of the town,
and, from their airy situation, might be supposed to be
the most healthy. Such, however, is not the case, for,
in Reform-st.reet alone, v..hie'n is only a portion of Clerk-
holm, the.re have been no fewer than fifteen or sixteen
deaths within the last five or six weeks, almost all chil-
dren under eight or ten years of age.—DundeeAdertiser.
