" The various positions of Lover, Husband, and Parent, the in-
' herent privileges of mankind, are frequently marred and prevented
through the follies and frailties of early indiscretions. To such, among
ethers, this Essay addresses itself; and by its perusal many questions
may be satisfactorily adjusted that admit of no appeal even to the
most contldential friend."—Stafford Gazette.
Long- experience in the treatment of a class of diseases hitherto
neglected and most imperfectly understood by the great bulk of the
medical profession, has enabled the writer to prove that there are
concealed causes of Nervous Debility in existence, where the mere
routine practitioner would never dream of finding them ; traceable
to certain habits, forming the most secret, yet deadly, and fatal
springs of domestic misery, and premature mortality."—Wakefield

.I\TORTHERN LUNATIC ASYLUM,
London, Colonade Hotel, Charles-street, St. James's-square.
sth June, 1845.
At a Meeting held on the 20th ultimo, of the Committee appointed
by the County of Inverness, for promoting the erection at Inverness
of a Lunatic Asylum, for Pauper and other Lunatics of the Northern
Counties of Scotland ;
We, the undersigned, William LI. Colquhonn, Advocate, Sheriff-
Substitute of Inverness-shire, and John Mackenzie, banker in In-
verness, were appointed a Deputation to solicit Subseriptions In Lon-
don, in aid of the proposed Asylum.
And being now arrived here, in pursuance of our mission, we beg leave to send you some particulars regarding the proposed establish-
ment, in the hope that you will be pleased to give it the benefit of
your support by contribution or otherwise, Under that impression,
we will do ourselves the honour of waiting on you, in a day or two,
to learn your determination; but should we be so unfortunate as not
to have an opportunity of seeing you personally, we hope you will be
kind enough to favour us with your 'views, to the above address, on
or before 12th instant.
The primary object of the projected Institution is the accommoda-
tion ofpauper lunatics, and of other lunatics in poor circumstances,
in the northern counties .f Scotland, which comprise an extent of
surface equal to one-third of all Scotland, and have a population of
about 250,000. Yet, with the exception of a very few cells attached
to the infirmary at Inverness, there is not any provision made in all.
this wide district for the secure confinement or medical treatment of
the Insane, the poorer classes of whom, amounting in number to up-
wards of 700, are left in aetateof wretched destitution, either burden-
some to their poor relatives and paralysing their industry, or roam •
ing about the country in search of a precarious subsistence--pitiable
on account of their calamity, often alarming and dangerous to the
community, froin their furious conduct, at once the disgrace, the in-
jury, and the terror of the country.
To abate this crying evil, this heart-sickening and frightfill neglect
and destitution, it is proposed to erect at Inverness, as the most
central and convenient point, an Asylum for pauper lunatics, and for
other lunatics in poor circumstances belonging to the northern coun-
ties. As a subsidiary and ulterior measure, provision will be maele
for the addition afterwards of apartMente forxiclier classes of patients,
The made far this purpoae can only be obtained Iy the voluntary
contributions of such benevolent persons as are interested in the wel-
fare of the wide district of country referred to, or in the mitigation of
human suffering generally. It is estimated that at least B,ooof. will
be required to erect thu necessary buildings, and to form a fund for
the permanent endowment of the Institution. Already considerable
progress has been made, principally In the North of Scotland, in pro-
curing subscriptions- ; and hopes are confidently entertained that
with Metropolitan, and perhaps Colonial aid, the necessary thuds
will be obtained to secure this invaluable boon for the poor, and re-
move one of the worst blots on the lunnaulty of our countrymen.
The rules for the government of the Institution will be of course de-
terinined at a general meeting of the Subscribers, and will be sub-
mitted to them on principles fitted to secure a liberal and efficient
system of management, comprehending the chief official funtionaries
of the district, but giving to the Sitbscribere due and ample powers of
control and recommendation.

We are, respectfully,
Your very obedient servants,
(Signed) W. 11. COLQUROUN.
