symptoms CT this horrd disease make their appeaF-
ance, such as liberated throat, diseased nosR

DEAFNESS, nodes on the shin bones and arms blotches
on tAe head, laceand extremes progressing on with
IgEtiu! rapdy till at last the palate of the mouth OF

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

Its melancholy fact, that thousands fall victim
to this hOrrid disease owing to the unskilfpess q,
men, who by the use of that deadly poison mercury

without causing other diseases, such as STRUCTURE

Structure. Yet this disease may exist, and none o.
these symptoms be perceptble, or IL at all they
so slight as to pass gnnotced; hence, we find thou
sands IabOrng under this affection who entirely
unconscious of it-such persons become weak in the
parts seldom haze children, and in the later stages OF
this complaint are incapable of enjoying Marriage
their systems become deranged, particularly tho
stomach, inducing symptoms of dyspepsia; also affec

! What a pity that young man, the hope of His
country, and the darling of his parents, should be
snatehed from all the prospects and enioyments 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 a sound and hOdy are the moEk
necessary requisites to promote connubia happiness
Indeed, without these, the journey through life be-
comes weary pilgrimage, the prospect hourly dark
ems to the view-the mind becomes Swallowed with
despair, and filled with the melancholy reflection thal
the happiness OF another becomes bghted with ON

II Loss Of vire power is the penalty mnstreq uensiP
paid by those who give loose rein or license 0theI
passions. Young persons are tOu apt TO commite Y
cesses from not hcng aware Of the dreadful eiecg
that may easue. Although lmpgtCuCy occurs from
structure. dtpOsitCS in the urine gravel and from M
mGtOus other causes, yet the abuse Of the sexual
gans, by excessive venery or se'tpolutiOui paTGcn
larry the latter is the more frequent cause Of il. Now

that the power OF procTeatlng the species is lost
by those who practice the SoitGryrice than by this

The complaint comes on gradually. II begins by
too hGsty discharge of semen ia cOpslativc and pas

have 70 power while the CTcctions arefeehe inpel-
feet and soon over. As the disorder grows worse,
the discharges or emissions become mere easily ex-

ideas, By merely touching the part. In this aeplo
