Thy house, and (in the cep of I.fe,
Thst honey-drop) the pleasing wife.
SOCRAI'ES, by his !fist:nurse ua 3larrisge, Co. en.:
raptured his anilitors kith the sohject, that the
married men flew to their wires, and the bache!ors hastened
to be wedded ; and "The Spe..,tntor" has aliiriewl, that 1110
word `• wife" is•the most agreeable and delightful name l 3

The sacred institution, then, of marriage, compasses the
desideratum of our enjoyment; teeming not only with hap-
piness on earth, ',it disposing the soul itself to harmonize
with bliss hereafter.

Previous, however, to entering into this hallowed obli-
gation, it becomes an imperative duty, not only to regulate
the passions, but to cleanse the er..sser nature from those
impurities which the freedom of unrestricted pleasure may
have entailed upon it. To the neg•ect of such attention are
attributable, many of those hapless instances, which, while
they excite the commiseration of the beholder, should also
impress him with the fear of self-reproach.
Luxurious habits will efferninize the body—a residesice in
the tropics will relax the elastic fibre—hut more especially
does the premature infatuation of youth too frequently com-
promise the natural-dignity into a state of inanition, from
whence the agonized sun-e'er more than doubts the chance
of relief. To all such, then, we addre-ts ourselves, offering
hope—energy—muscular strength—felicity' nor will our
advances appear questionable, sant-tinned as they ere by the
multiplied proofs of twenty rears successful experience.
The easy cares of married life are sometimes disturbed
by the suspension of those blessings which concentrate the
nuptial wreath—for the female habit is often constitutioNally
weak—yet it can be strengthened, and deficient energy im-
proved into functional power.
In every case of syphilitic intrusion, as well as in every
relaxation of the genet-Oleg economy, we pledge our ability
to cure speedily, and with 'effect. Earnestly solicitous to
expel the unfeeling empiric from the position so presumptu-
ously taken up, we deviate from general principles with
less hesitation; and confident in our own honourable inte-
grity as Members of the College of Surgeons, we refer the
suffering community of either Sex (especially those enter
Ing into matrimonial, life) at once to our houses, where daily
attendance is given for personal consultation ; and letters
from the country ere immediately answered; these must
contain a remittance for Acivice and Medicine, which can be
forwarded to any part of the world, however distant.
