A CERTAIN DISEASE.
When the misguided andimprudent vota ~ of plea

till death puts period to his dreadful sferings, by
sending him to "that bourne whence no traveller 10
turns" To such, therefore, DR., JOHNSTON pledges
himself TO preserve the most invioable secrecy and
from his extensive practice in the first hospitals Of
Europe and America, he can confidently recommend
safe and speedy cure TO the unfortunate victim 81
this hOnid disease.
Itis melancholy fact, that thousands fall victim
to this horrd disease, owing 10 the unskillfulness o.

ruin the constitution, and either send the unorunRsS

persons before contemplating
MARRIAGE,
Should reflect that sound and body are the most
necessary requisites to promote connubial happiness
Indeed, without these, the journey through life be-
comes weary pilgrimage, the prospect hourly dark

despair, and filled with the melancholy reflection, tha
the happiness OF another becomes blighted with
own.
CONSTITUTIONAL DEBILITY.
DR.. J, addresses young men and all who have iai
jGted themselves by private improper indulgences,
IMP OTENCE-WE.fKNES OF THE GEM
tai ORGANS.
Loss of virile power is the penalty mostGeq ueni}y
paid by those who give loose rein or license to then
passions. Young persons are too apt TO commite1-
cesses from rot being aware of the dreadful eifgc.I
that may ensue. Although iEpoteucy occurs from
structure, depostes in the urine, gravel and from nv
merous other causes, yet the abuse of the sexual
gans, by excessive VenCry or selp0lutiOn; paTticu
larry the latter is the frequent Of it, Now
VINO that understands the subject will pretend to deny
that the power of procreang the species is lost soon
by those who practice the solitary than by tbs
prudent. Besides, by premature impotence the d.
gestve functions deranged, and the physical and
mental powers weakened by too frequent and toe
great excitement of the genital organs Parents and
guardians are often misled, with respect to t1s
cases sources o. disease in their and wards
How often do they ascribe TO other causes the vast
ing fthe frame, diotcy madness, paptation of tho
heart, indigestion, arrangement of the nervous sys
TEN, cough and SYMPTOMS, indicating consumption,
when the truth is that they have been caused by iaa
dulging in pemicous, though aluriHg practice, desS
tructive to both mind and body.
| INVOLUNTARY SEMINAL EMISSIONS,
OF this distressing disease, which is the common
result of the above mentioned secret habit, but very
I Ds,ca
The complaint comes on gradually. II begins BY
too hasty discharge of semen IN copulative and pas
sionate Dreams Such emissions being too hasiy,
have no power, while the erections are feeble impey-
feet and soon over. As the disorder grows worse,
the discharges or emissions become more easily en-
cited and frequent, often brought by lasciViops
IDEAS or by merely touching the part. in this deplo
Ibe case, the emissions take place without any
pleasure and without erection, and in this debiliaed
and sensitive state of the organs the drefu effects Of
pollution so ruinous TO health, take place day and
