A CERTAIN DISEASE.
when the misguided aHdimprldent votary of plea
sure fnds he has imbbed the seeds ofthis painful dis
ease, 1t TOO often happens that an itimed sense OF
shame, dread of discovery, deters him from apply
ing to those who, from education and responsibility
can alone befrend him, delaying till the constitutional
symptoms of this hOrrid disease make their appear
ance, such as liberated throat diseased nose,
nocturnal pains in the head and limbs dmness OF sight,
Deafness nodes the shin bones and arms, bloiches
on the head, facednd CXtremtes progressing with
rightu rapidly, till al last the palate of the mouth or
the bones Of the fall in and the victim Of this
full disease beco holrd object of COmmiseratiOn
till death puts period to his dreadful suierngs, by
sending him to ''that bourne whence no traveller re-
turns" To such, therefore, Or. JOHN STOR pledges
himself to preserve the most nviolable secrecy and
from his extensive practice in the first hospitals OF
Europe and America, he can confidently recommend
safe and speedy cure 10 the unfortunate victim OF
this hOnid disease.
1t is a melancholy fact, that thousands fall victim
to this hOrrid disease, owing 10 the unskifulness Ga
men, who by the of that deadly poison, mercury,
ruin the constitutions and either send the unfortunate
suffer to an Hnmely grave, or else make the residue
of his life miserable.

TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE,
| Young men who have injured themselves by Ger
tain practice INDUCED in when alone-a habit IRE
quenty learned from evil companions, or al school,
the effects of which nightly felt even when asleep,
and if not cured renders marriage impossible, md de-
strOys both mind and body.
What pity that a young man, the hope OF his
country, and the darling of his parents, should be
snatehef from all the prospects and enioyments OF
b tl1B nfb pi
nature and indulgBg in certain secret habit. Such
persons before contemplating
MARRIAGE,
Should reflect that sound and hOdy are the most
necessary requisites promote connubia happiness.
Indeed without these, the journey through life be-
comes weary pilgrimage, the prospect hourly dark
ems to the yiew-the mind becomes Swallowed with
despair, and filled with the melancholy reflection, that
the happiness of another becomes blighed with our
own.
CONSTITUTIONAL DEBILITY
DR.. ] addresses young men and all who have in
Jared themselves hypriVate improper indulgences
IMPO Ten CE- ~ E.iKNESS or THE GENE
TAI ORGANS,
Loss of vire power is the penalty mOstffeI uently
paid by those who give loose rein or license to then
passions. Young persons are too apt to connile K
cesses from not being aware OF the dreadful effects
that may ensuc. Although impotency occurs from
structure, drpoSltes III the urine, gravel, and nom
mCtOus other causes, yet The abuse of tie sexual
gans, by excessive yeneTy or seii-pDlu liOn parcu
larry the latter is the frequent OF it, Now
VINO Jiidt UNDERSTANDS Tue SUBJECT WIZ pretend 10 deny
that the power Of procreatng the species is lost
by those who practice the SOLITARY rice than by the
prudent. Besides by premature impotence the di-
gestve functions afe deranged AMI 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
causes Of disease in their sons and wards
How often do they ascfibe TO other causes the vast
ing of the frame, idOtcy, madness, paptatOn of the
heart, indigestion, arrangement of the nervous sys-
TEN, cough and SYMPTOMS, indicating consumption,
when the truth is that they have been caused by in
dulgng in pemicious, though alluring practice, des
tructivC TO both mind and body
INVOLUNTARY SEMINAL EMISSIONS.
OF this distressing disease, which is the common
result of the above mentioned secret kdbt, but very
brief description for many reasons, be given here
The complaint comes on gradually. IL begins by
too hasty discharge Of semen ia cOpuatlve and pas
sionate dreams. Such emissions being TOO hasty,
have no power, while the ercCons are feeble imper-
feet and soon over. As the disorder grows worse,
the discharges or emissions become more easily ex-
cited and frequent, often brought on by ascivious
ideas, by merely touching the part. In this deplo
rable case, the emissions take place without any
pleasure and without erection, and in this debilated
and sensitive state of the organs the dire effects of
pollution so ruinOus to health, AXE place day and
night. Pale, emaCiated and weak. the unhappy vic.
tim of artificial gratihCaou complains Of pain IN ths
head and back, has n languid loOk GnuCsS OF sight,
flushing of the face when spoken 10, luwnesS of spi-
tits, 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 10 all bodily ana mental eXerton.-
Distressed, and his mind fixed upon his mseries, he
slyly searches every source that promises relief
Ashamed to make known his situation to his friends
or those who by education, study land practical know
edge are able relieve him, he applies to the igno
rant and designing, who flch him of his peruniar
substance and instead OF restoring him TO health .
leave him to SIGH over his calling disappointment; the
last scene Of tie drama winds IN with mania cata
epsy, epilepsy or some terrible disease ofthe nerves
and death drops the curtain, hurrying the unbapn
