31- One half the world are desolately single, and the other,
supposing them married, Questionably contented. Diffidence, or a;
sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em-.
bitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea,
of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret an-1
COM prosin harry ; but .the" truth Iles deeper. Physical Incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness!
and social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour and justice denaand tkat health should form an item
in the compact ; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or
neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if'
:hese surmises concern you, procure Dr. CULYERWELL'S little!

they are offered as antagonistic to the empyrical trash put forth on

Marriage requires the ftfifilmont of several conditions. in order
that it may be really ..he canoe of mutual happiness. Could the
veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised,
and Its true source in every instance disclosed, Ir. how many could
It be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap-
anintments. Excesses are always injurious ; the gift, which when
used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when
abused, the Prolific source of mischief, and of greater or less Injury
to the constitutional an, . :hal powers. The part,cular excesses. of
.he nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate,
are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame,
than any other to which it is subject.
This work contains an accurate and complete account of the
of the ReproductiveOi•gans, and o.
tithretairtomreylataiyued
conditionsPisgyiloin health and disease. It deservedly
requires the closest attention and study, fir what subject can
be of more importance than the preserTation of the health,
and of the physical capabilities of which every man should
be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy
victim of excessive indulgence and vi,:ions habits, whether acrinired
In early life or from the follies ef advanced age, while suffering
from their invariable consegnemees, unwisely entertains a tear of ap-
plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so
frequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are
beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking
or assistance where alone it can he procured. In acting thus, he
forgets that accurate discrimination. n ascertaining the causes of
diseat.e, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva-
riably characterise the intelliout and practical physician. and to the
medloal man Who can show by his posse-sion of the requisite legal
qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his profes-
sional pursuits, the utmost confleience should be extended. Dr.
LA'MERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas
certif.)", and the great extent of his practice far many years is a
guarantee for his professional experience, which has reference almost
solely !o the treatment of these diseases.
