The essential object of this treat'se is to point out the fearful con-
sequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses,
which have Produced more misery in Youth, degradation in M in-
hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any
other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is
rartienlarly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of
their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded
the health, happiness, and privileges o which every human being is
entitled,
It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are
iples ooutf personal management which cannot be violated win-
ncurric
g grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret sue •
c'ed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulmice, how those penalties
'nay be ln mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be remcved,
I.d how the evil and its consequence-8 may be &voided, and, above all,
that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional
derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.
