DIR. JOHNSTON,

Diploma; also, member of the Royal College Of
surgeons and Licentiate of the ApOthecary's Hall,
London; and the greater part of whose life has been
spent in the first hospitals Of Europe and America,
viz: those Of London, Paris and Philadelphia, may
be consulted on all diseases, but more particularly
A CERTAIN DISEASE.
when the misguided andimprudenI votary of plea
sure finds he has mbibed the seeds Ofhs painful dis
ease, it too often happens that an il-tmed Of
shame, or dread of discovery, deers him from apply
ing to those who, from education and responsibility
can alone befriend him. delaying till the constitutional
symptoms cf 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 on the shin bones and arms, blutchea
on the head, aceand extromtes, progressing on with
rlgtu rapidty till at last the palate of the mouth or
the bones of the fall in and the victim of this aw-
full disease becomes a houidobjec OF cOmmiseatiOn,
till death puts period to his dreadful suferngs, by
sending him to 'that bourne whence no traveller
| turns.' To such, therefore, Dr. JOHNSTON pledges
himself preserve the most invioabla secrecy and
from his extensive practice in the first hospitals OF
Europe and America, he can confidently recommend
a safe and speedy cure to the unfortunate victim Of
this hOnid disease, ...
It'll melancholy fact that thousands fall victim
to this hOrrid disease owing TO the unskillfUlDess o.
men, who by the of that deadly poison, mercury,
ruin the constitutions and either send the unfortunate
suffer to an Hntimey grave or else make the residue
| of his life miserable,
GONoRRHGA AND GLEET CURED, by the
most speedy and the most pleasant remedy known 10
no other physician trequires no restraint of diet,
or hndrance from husiness-it is mild, safe and eff;
cacOus eradcating every symptom of this affection,
without causing other Diseases such as STRUCTURE
and AFFECTIONS OF THE BLADDER and PRosTRATE
GLAND, which impyrics and quacks so often create
their nOxious drugs and filthy infections.
STRICTURES-whes there is partial suppress
sion of urine, accompanied with uneasiness in the
parts frequent desire to make water, it is called
Structure. Yet this disease may exist and none o.
these symptoms be perceptible or Il at all they are
so slight as TO pass unnOuced; hence, we find thou
sands laborng under this affection who are entirely
unconscious of it-such persons become weak in the
parts, seldom haze chiLre 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 afiec-
tons of the mind, peculiar fits OF melancholy, &c,
sc. which may end in some dreadful disease of the
nerves. and will either caIse premature death OF

the effects of which nightly felt even when asleep,
and if cured renders marriage impOsslbe and de-
stroys both mind and body.
What a pity that a young man, the hone of his
country, and the darling of his parents, should be
snatched from all the prospects and enjoyments OF
life by the consequences of devatng from the path of
nature and INDUCING in certain secret habit. Such
persons before contemplating
MARRIAGE,
Should reflect that sound and body are the most
necessary requisites TO promote connubal happiness.
Indeed, without these, the journey through life be-
comes weary pilgrimage, the prospect hourly dark
despair, and filled with the melancholy reflection, thai
the happiness of another becomes blighted with our
own.
CONSTITUTIONAL DEBILITY.
DR., j addresses young men and all who have il;
jured themselves byprivate improper indulgences,
IMP TEN CE- WEAKNESS OF THE GEM
TIL ORGANS.
Loss of virc power is the penalty mostfreq uently
paid by those who give loose rein license 10 their
passions. Young persons are too apt to commute l.
cesses from not being aware of the dreadful effects
that may ensue. Although impotcucy occurs from
structure, deposites in the urine gravel and from nu-
mcrous other causes, yet the abuse of the sexual Or
gans, by excessive venery or sepo!Iution; particu
larry the latter is the more frequent cause OF it, Now
who that understands the subject will pretend deny
that the power of prOcreatng the species is lost SOON
by those who practice the solitary rice than by tho
prudent. Besides by premature impotence the d.
gestve functions are derauged and the physical and
mental powers weakeRed by too frequent and too
great excitement of the genital organs Parents and
guardians are often msled, with respect to the
sources of disease in their SONS and wards
How often do they ascrbe to other causes the vast
ing ofthe frame idocy, madness, papitation of the
heart, Indigestion, arrangement of the nervous syr
TEN, cough and symtoms indicating consumption,
when the truth is that they have been caused by in
duging in pemciouS, though aurng 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
brief description for many reasons, can be given here
The complaint COMES on gradually. Ii begins by
too hasty discharge of semen IN copulative and pas
siOnate dreams. Such emissions being too nasty,
have power while the erectiOns are feeble impel-
feet and soon over AS the disorder grows worse,
the discharges or emissions become easily ex-
cited and frequent often brought on by lasciviouz
IDEAS or BY merely touching the part. in this dcplo
rJS,lc case, the emissions take place without any
pleasure and without erection and in this iehilitated
and sensitive state of the organs the dTcil effects Of
pollution so ruinCus To heath, axe place dav and
