Pointmeats. Excesses are Always injurious ; the gift, which when
th.....ertieration is fraught with advantage, becomes, when
.tirolific source of mischief and of greater or less injury
to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on
the nature and conseauence of which this Treatise professes to dilate,
are Productive of greater severity of misery to the kuman frame,
than any other to which it is subject.
This 'WUrk contains an accurate and complete account of the
Anaterny 'and physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and 01
their relative conditions in health and disease. It deservedly
requires the closest attentisa and study, for what subject can
be of more Importance than the: preservation 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 vicious habits, whether acquired
la early life or tom the follies of advanced age,
while suffering
from their invariable eongequencea, unwisely entertains a fear 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
tor assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he
forgets that accurate discrimination n ascertaining the causes of
dleease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, lava-
-1144 ay etiaracterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the
medical man wl.O can show by ht., posse, sion of the requisite legal
qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his profes-
sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr.
'SIERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas
.mll5. and the great extent of his practice for many years is a
guarantee for his professional experience, which has reference almost
solely to the treatment of these diseases.
