TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
Young men vine have injured themselves by a Ger
tain practice INDUCED in when alone-a habit fro
quently learned from evil companions, or al school
the effects of which nightly felt even when aseen
and il not cured renders marriage impossible and do
stroys both mind and body.
! What pity that young man, the hope OF his
country, and the darling of his parents, should be-
snatehed from all the prospects and enjOyments OF
life by the consequences of deviang from the path OF
| nature and INDUCING in certain secret habit Such
persons before contemplating
MARRIAGE,
Should reflect that a sound and bod " are the pno.,
necessary requisites TO promote connubal happDesa
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 thas
the happiness OF another becomes blghted with ouI
own.
CONSTITUTIONAL DEBILITY.

jGIed themselves by private improper induleences,

Loss OF vlrile power is the penalty mostCreg uentv
paid by those who give loose rein or license to theI
passions. Young persons are too apt to commitex.
cesses ifOm not being aware of the dreadful effect,
that may ensue. Although mpOtency occurs frou
structure, deFosltes in the urine gravel and from nUl
merous other causes, yet the abuse OF the sexual or.
gans by excessive venery sel-pOllution: particu
larry the latter is the frequent cause of it, Nov

OF this distressing disease, which is the common
result of the above mentioned secret habit but yery
brief description for many reasons, be given here
The complaint comes on gradually. /, begins by n
too hasty discharge of semen in copsative and pas-
sionate dreams Such emissions being too hastv

the discharges or emissions become more easily en-
cited and frequent, often brought on hy Iasciyous
