Diploma; also, a member of the Royal College Of
surgeons and Licentiate OF the Apothecary's Hall,

A CERTAIN DISEASE
When the misguided and imprudeRt vota ry of plea

can alone befriend him. delaying till the constitutional
symptoms of this horrd disease make their appear
ance, such as liberated throat, diseased moss,
nocturnal pains in the head and limbs dmness of sight,
deafness, nodes the shin bones and arms, blotchss
on the head laceand extremites progressing with
trightu rapdy, till at last the palate the mouth OF
the bones of the fall in and the victim this a-
u disease becomes hoIrid object of commiseration,
till death puts period to his dreadful sueTugs BY
seRdng Kim TO "that bourne whence no traveller re-
turns" To such, therefore, DIR, JOHNSTON pledges
Hlsei 10 preserve Inc most JnVOaDle secrecy; and,
from his extensive practice in the first hospitals OF
Europe and America, he can confidently recommend

this h0rlid disease.
It'll a melancholy fact, that thousands fall victim
to this honid disease, owing TO the unskillfuness o.
men, who by the of that deadly poison, mercury,
ruin the constitution, and either send the unfortunate
suffer to an Hntmely grave or else make the resdus
of his life miserable.

! TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
Young men whe have injured themselves by Ger
tain practice INDUCED in when alone-a habit FIRE
quently learned from evil companions, or at school
the effects of which nightly felt when asleep,
and if not cured renders marriage impossible and de-
stroys both mind and body.
What pity that young man, the hope of his
country, and the darling of his parents, should be
snatched from all the prospects and enjoyments OF
life by the consequences of devating from the path OF
nature and INDUCING in certain secret habit. Such
persons before contemplating
MARRIAGE,

necessary requisites TO promote cOnnubal happiness
Indeed, without these the journey through life be-
comes weary pilgrimage, the prospect hourly darh-
ems to the vew-the mind becomes Swallowed with
despair, and filled with the melancholy reflections that
the happiness OF another becomes blghted with our
OWn.

Loss of vire power is the penalty mostCreQ uentIy

merous other causes, yet the abuse OF the sexual or
