Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions. in order
that it may .he really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the
veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised,
and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many could
i the traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap-
pointments. Excesaos aro always injurious ; the gift, which whey
used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when
abused, the prolific source of mischief and of greater or leas injury
to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, en
.he nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate,
are productive of greater severity of misery I. the human frame,
than any other to which it le subject.
This work contains an accurate and complete Recount of the
Anatomy and Pkyt•tolegy of the Reproductive Organs, and of
their relative conditions la health and disease. It deservedly
requires the eloseet attention and study, for what subject can
be of moro importance than the preservation of the health,
and of the physical capabilities of wilds every man should
be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy
victim of excessive indulgence and vicioae habits, whether aoquired
in early life or frora the follies of advanced age, while suffering
from their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear 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
!or assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he
forgets that accurate discrimination. n ascertaining the canoes 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 his posee:sioa of the requisite legal
qualifications that ho is entitled to esteem and respect In his profes-
sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr.
LA'MENT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas
eertify, 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.
