The following are a few of the numerous testimonials this
popular work has received, and which the limits of an adver-
tisement will only allow of being published :

sent time. The unavoidable .consequence of this is, that we
meet a very considerable proportion of indifferent, useless, and
even bad books. With the force of thin i"

minds, we with no little reluctance Were induced to peruse
Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled “Manhood ;" nor did it re-
quire much perusal fully to satisfy us that the book was not
one of the common stamp. The scientific views taken by the
authors of the source and origin of many of the most distressing
effects of certain depraved habits, fully establish their claim to
