CERTAIN DISEASE.
Wneh inc misguided andimprudent vota ry of plea
sure mas he has mblbed the seeds ofhs painful dis
ease, ii too often happens that an ill-tmed sense Of
shame or dread Of discovery, 6eters him from apply
ing 10 those who, from education and respGctabity
can alone sefrend him. delaying till the constitutional
symptoms of this horrd disease make their appear
ance, such as liberated throat diseased nose,
nocturnal pains the head and limbs dmness of sight,
oeainess, nodes on the shin bones and arms boches
on the head laceand exemties, progressing on with
Ighttul rapdity, till at last the palate ofthe mouth or
e bones OF the nose fall in and the victim of this
u disease becomes honid object of cummiseration,
Till death puts period to his dreadful suierngs bR
sending him to Chat bourne whence no traveller re-
| turns" TO such, therefore, Dr. JOHNSTON pledges
himself to preserve the most nviOable secrecy; and
from his extensive practice in the first hospitals OF
Europe and America, he confidently recommend
safe and speedy cure 10 the unfortunate victim OF
| this horId disease.
Iii melancholy fact, that thousands fall victim
to this horrld disease, owing 10 the unskiulness o.
men, who by the use of that deadly poison mercury,
ruin the constitutions and either send the unfortunate
suffer to an untimely grave else make the residue

no other physician. II requires restraint of diet,
or hndrance from busness-it s mild, safe and EN-
caclous, Graduating every symptom of this affection,
without causing other diseases, such as STRUCTURE
and AFFECTIONS or THE BLADDER and PRosTRATH
GLAND, which impyrics and quacks so often create
| their noxious drugs and filthy infections.
STRICTURES-wheH there is a partial suppres
sion of urine, accompanied with uneasness in the
parts or frequent desire to make water, il is called
Structure. Yet this disease may exist, and none O.
these symptoms be perceptibe, or IL at ALL they are
so slight as to pass unnoticed; hence, find thou
sands laboTing under this affection who are entirely
unconscious of it-such persons become weak in the
parts seldom have children, and in the later stages OF
this complaint are incapable of enjoying Marriage
their systems become deranged, particularly the
stomach, inducing symptoms Of dyspepsia; also aIec-
tons of the mind, peculiar fits of melancholy, sc,
&c. which may end in some dreadful disease of the
nerves, andawill either case premature death OF
else make the rest of life miserable. To such per
| sons, DIR. JOHNSTON offers the most speedy remedy
that can be obtained in the United States.

What pity that young man, the hope of hi,

life by the consequences of devaing from the rath OF

necessary requisites to promote connubal happiness
Indeed, without these, the journey through life ne

despair and filled with the melancholy reflection TIA,
the happiness OF another becomes bligh,ed with our

ldrcd themselves by private improper indugences,
IMPO TEN CE-WE.fENESS OF THE GENT

Loss of Vrlie power is the penalty mostireq uentIr
paid BY those who give loose rein nr license tobcir
passions Young persons are too apt to c0n,rnita Z
cesses from not being aware OF the drcadfIl eAec,s
that may ensue. Although impotency occurs from
structure, deposites IN the urine gravel and from mn
hefous other causes, yet the abuse OF the sexual Or
sans, by excessive venery or seiEpOlutun; rartinu
iary the latter is the frequent cause of H. Now

sestlVe functions are deranged, and The physical and
mental powers weakened by too frequent and too
great excitement of the genital organs Parents and

How often do they ascribe to other causes the vast
