WHEN .an individual has experienced any par-
ticular mark of kindness, in which his weltare and
happiness haae been considerably promoted, nothing is more
hatural than to seek out the person by whom we have been
served,. for the purpose of expressing our grateful sense of the
favour bestowed. But, in cases of health, where we have
been recovered front the last deplorable stage of debilitated
nature, and rtored to the full enjoyment of all the various
blessings of life, we are forcibly called on by every consi-
deration, to acknowledge it in the most public manner. We
owe this equally to our own feelings, which must be sensibly
awakened on the occasion, to the skill and talents of the Doc-
tor, .which merit every encomium, and to the public at large,
in orderahat those who may stand in need of similar benefits,
may know where to receive them. Having made these ge-
neral observations, I sliallvroceed to state the particular case
that has occasioned them, and to lay before the Public-thesa•
lutary effects that I have experienced under the greatest
afflidions that can possibly befal us. I was born and educated
at Winchester, and at seventeen years of age went to the Uni-
versity at Oxford. Prior to my leaving Win Chester, and
more particularly at College, I was reduced to the most
grievous: state, by the horrid and unnatural praetices too in-
cident to youth, and which ate not more baneful to our
lieftlth,. than sinful in the eye of God. I was at first afflieted
with a dimness pf sight, a weakness in my loins, and a de-
pression of spirits. In tbis situation I applied to Baron
Wenzel, the famous Oculist, who informed me it proceeded
from the optic nerves. I for some time followed his advice,
till oiaeaday returning from shooting,. I was seized with a
'numbness in my limbs to. such a degree, as to lead me to
conclude that I should entirely lose the use of them. This
induced me to put myself under the hands of Dr. W. of Ox-
ford; but neither- his aid, nor the waters at Baal, which
place I visited, afforded me the least relief; my spirits at
length were so seriously depressed with violent. palpitations
of the heart, and my flesh so much decaiyed, that I became
a mere skeleton. 0 bserving;Thowever in the Bath Papors,
a publication by Dr. BrodUm, intituled, " A Guide to Old
Age," dedicated to His Majesty, I was induced to peruse
the same, when I fortunately discovered the complaint I had
so long laboured under.
' " I have the happiness to add, that by following the ad-
vice contained therein, and going through a complete course
of Dr. Brodum's invaluable Nervous Cordial,\ I am now,
thank Heaven, perfeCtly recovered, and as well as ever I was
in my life.
" I have since quitted the University, and am going to
' eater into the holy state of matrimony, with a determination
- never to be without " A Guide to Old Age ;" and; at the
tame time, I think it my duty to advise all young men to.
follow my example, as a perusal of this'Excellent book may
happily prevent the afflieted from being precipitated headlong
to an untimely grave, which, but for Dr. Brodum, would
most inevitably have been my case.
