Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions. in order
that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the
veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised,
and its true source ii every instance disclosed, in how many could
it be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap-
pointments. Excesses are always injurious; the gill, 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 and vital powers. The particular excesses, on
the nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate,
aro 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 acconnt of the
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, aid of
their relative conditions in health anti disease. It deservedly
requires the closest attention 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 anti vicious habits, whether acquired
in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering
Irons their invariable consequences, 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 aro
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 causes of
disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva-
riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the
oieoldical man who can show by his posse,sion of the requisite legal
