REVIEWS OF THE WORK.

"The author of this singular and talented work is a legally quali-
fied medical man, who has evidently had considerable experience in
the treatment of the various disorders arising from the follies and
fraibles of early indiscretion. The engravings are an invaluable ad-
ditien, by demonstrating the consequences of excesses, which must
a..t as a salutary warning to youth and maturity, and by its perusal
many questions may be satisfactorily replied to, that admit of no ap-
peal, evot to the most confidential friend."—Era.
