A CERTAIN DISEASE
When the misguided and mprudenI vOtasy of plea
sure finds he has nbed the seeds Of this painful dis
ease, il too often happens that an illmed sense OF
shame, or dread of discovery, deters him from apply
ing 10 those who, from education and respectabiity
alone befriend him, delaying till the constitutional
symptoms of this horrid disease make their appear
ance; such as uceracd sore throat, diseased nose,
nocturnal pains in the head and limbs dimness OF sight,
Deafness nodes on the shin bones and arms, bloches
on the head, aceand extremities, progressing with
irghttnl raPdty till at last the palate OF the mouth or
the homes Of the nose fall in and the victim of this aw
ul disease becomes hotTid object of commiseraton,
till death puts period to his dreadful sufierngs, by
sending him to ''that bourne whence no traveller re-
turns.' To such, therefore, Or. JOHNSTON pledges
himself to preserve the most inviOlabe secrecy; and,
from his extensive practice in the first hospitals Of
Europe and America, he can confidently recommend
safe and speedy cure TO the unfortunate victim OF
! this hond disease.
| 1t is melancholy fact, that thousands fall victim
to this borrd disease, owing the unskillfness o.
men, who by the Of that deadly poison, mercury,
ruin the constitution, and either send the unfortunate
suffer to an sntimey grave, or else make the residus
| of his life miserable.

IMP POTENCE-WE.4ENESS OF THE GEM
tai ORIGINS.
Loss of virile power is the penalty mOstrreq uenty
paid by those who give loose rein license 10 their
passions. Young persons are too apt to commite l.
cesses from not being aware of the dreadful effects
that may ensue. Although impotency occurs from
structure, deposites in the urine gravel and from
other causes yet the abuse of the sexual or
gans, by excessive venery sefpollution; par,icu
Iarly the latter is the frequent of IT, Now
who that understands the subject will pretend to deny
that the power of procreating the species is lost
by those who practice the solitary vice than by the
prudent. Besides, by premature impotence the d.
eestve functions deranged and the physical and
mental powers weakened by too frequent and too
great excitement of the genital organs Parents and
guardians are often misled, with respect TO the

How often do they ascribe TO other causes the vast

heart, Indigestion, arrangement Of the sys-
TEN, cough and SYMPTOMS, indicating consumption,
when the truth is that they have been caused by ins
duging in pernicous though allurng practice des:
tructive TO both mind and body.
INTOL UNT.ARY SEMINAL EMISSIONS.
Of this distressing disease, which is the common
result of the above mentioned secret habit but a very
brief description for many reasons, be given here,
The complaint comes gradually. II begins bv
too hasy discharge of semen in copulative and pas
sonate dreams. Such emissions being TOO basty,
have power, while the erections are feeble iinper-
feet and soon over, AS the disorder grows worse,
the discharges or emissions become more easily ex-
cited and treqaent, often brought on by lascivous
ideas, or by merely touching the part IN this depo
rable case, the emissions take place without any
pleasure and without erection and in this debitated
and sensitive state of the organs the dreu effects OF
pollution so runOus to health, iake place day and
night. Pale, emacated, and weak, the unhappy vic
tim of artificial qualification complains of pain in the
head and hack, has anguid look, dimness of sight,
flushing of the face when spoken TO, loWBess of sn-
rts, and vague dread Of something, often starting
with terror at a sudden sight or sound He also
loaths society, from an innate sense of shame, and
! feels dislike TO all bodily and mental exertion.-
Distressed, and his mind fixed upon his miseres he
slyy searches every source tha promises relief
Ashamed to make known his situation to his friends,
or those who by education study and practical know
ledge, able 10 relieve him, he appes TO The igno-
rant and designing, who flch him of his pecuniar
substance and instead of restoring him to health,
leave him to sigh over his CALLING disappointment the
last scene of the drama winds up with mania,
lepsy epilepsy or some terrible disease the
and death drops the curtain, hurrying the unhapp
patient TO an untmelY tomb, where his friends
totahy ignorant Of the real cause.
