DEAFNESS, nodes on the shin bones and arms, botchss
ON the head, acesn9 CXremites, progressing ON with

turns" To such, therefore, DR.. JOHNSTON pledges
himself to preserve the most rvioable secrecy and
from his extensive practice in the first hospals OF
Europe and America, he can confidently recommend

without causing other diseases, such STRUCTURE
and AFFECTIONS OF THE BLADDER and PROsTRATR
GLAND, which impyrics and quaeks so often create
their nOXiOus drugs and filthy infections.
STRlCTURES-Wheh there is q partial supprgE
sion of urine, accompanied with uneasness in the
parts or frequent desire to make water, it is called
Structure. Yet this disease may exist, and none OF
these symptoms be perceptbe, or II at ALL they
so slight as to pass Hnnoticed; hence, find thou
sands laborng under this affection who are entirely
unconscious of it-such persons become weak in thG
parts seldom have children, and in the later stages Of
this complaint are incapable of enjoying Marridge-
their systems become deranged, particularly the
stomach, inducing symptoms of dyspcPsia also alice
tons of the mind, peculiar fits of melancholy, sc.
SC. which may end in some dreadful disease of the
nerves, and will either caLse premature death OF
else make the rest of life miserable To such per
sons, DR.. JOHNSTON offers the most speedy remedy
that can be obtained in the United States.

! Young men whs have injured themselves by a cey
tain practice INDUCED IN when aunz-d hobit fra
quently learned from evil companions, or al school
the effects of which nightly felt even when asleep,
and if not cured renders marriage Impossible, and de-
sroys both mind and body.
| What a pity that a young man, the hope of hiB
country, and the darling of his parents, should be
snatehed from all the prospects and enjOyments Of
life by the consequences of deviang from The path Of
nature and indulgRg in certain secret habit. Such
persons before contemplating
MARRIAGE,
Should reflect that sound and hody are the most
necessary requisites TO promote cOnnuhal happiness
Indeed, without these, the Journey through life be-
comes weary pilgrimage the prospect hourly dark
ems to the vew-the mind becomes shadOweg with
despair, and filled with the melancholy reflections thai
the happiness Of another becomes blighled with our

Loss of yire power is the penalty mcstl'rag uenHy
paid by those whe give loose rein or license 10 their
passions. Young persons are to" apt To c0mmite K
from not being aware of The dreadful eGscts
that may ensue. Although mp0tency occws from
structure, deposes in the urine gravel, and from nu-
merous other causes, yet the abuse Of the sexual
gans, by excessive Venery or self pol utOu; pafcu
larry the latter is the more frequent cause Of IT, Now
VINO that understands the subject will pretend to deny
that the OWer Of pTOcreang Ill species is lost

mental powers weakened by a too frequent and toa
great excitement of the genital organs. Parents and
guardians are often misled, with respect to the
