DR.. JOHNSTON,
a distinguished graduate from one of the first CO.
leges nthe United States, which may he seen by his
! Diploma; ALSO member of tho Royal College of
! Surgeons and Licentiae of the ApothGcays 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 ahdimprudent votary Of plea
sure nnds he has imbbed the seeds of this painful dis
ease, il too often happens that l-tmed sense Of
shame, or dread Of discovery, deters him from apply
ing to those who, from education and responsibility
can alone befriend him. delaying till the constitutional
symptoms of this h0rrid disease make their appear
ance such as liberated sore throat, diseased nose,
nocturnal pains in the head and limbs dimness of sight,
deafness, nodes on the shin bones and arms blOtches
on the head facednd Gxtremtes, progressing with
rightu rapdy, till at last the palate of the mouth
the bones of thenose fall in and the victim of this
tu disease becomes horEd object of Commiseraton,
till death puts period 10 his dreadful suerngs, by
sending him to "that bourne whence traveller re-
turns" To such, therefore, Or. JOHNSTON pledges
himself to preserve the most invOable 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 Of
this hOnid disease.
Itis melancholy fact, that thousands fall victim
to this horrd disease, owing 10 the unskiulness o.
men, who by the use of that deadly poison, mercury,
ruin the constitution, and either send the unfortunate
suffer to an snmely grave, or else make the residue
of bis life miserable.
GoNORRHGA AND GLEET CURED, by the
most speedy and the most pleasant remedy known 10
no other physician. 1t requires restraint of diet,
hindrance from business-it is mild, safe and eff
cacious, Graduating every symptom of this affection,
without causing other diseases, such as STRUCTURE
and AFFECTIONS OF THE BLADDER and PROsTRATH
GLAND, which impyrics and quacks so often create
their noxous drugs and filthy infections.
! STRICTURES-wheH there is a 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 Oh
these symptoms be perceptble, or x at ALL they are
so slight to pass unnOtced; hence, we find thou
sands laboring under this affection who entirely
unconscious of it-such persons become weak in the
parts, seldom hare children and in the later stages OF
this complaint incapable of enjoying Marriage
their systems become deranged, particularly the
stomach, inducing symptoms of dyspepsia; also aec-
tons of the mind, peculiar fits OF melancholy, &c'
Sc which may end in some dreadful disease of the
nerves, and will either caLse premature death
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.

TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
Young men whe have injured themselves by a Ger
tain practice INDUCED in when alOne-a habit ire
quenty learned from evil companions, or at school
the effects of which are nightly felt even when asleep,
stroys both mind and body.
What a pity that a young man, the hope of his
country, and the darling of his parents, should be
snatched from all the prospects and enjoyments Of
life by the consequences Of devang from the path OF
nature and indugiRg III certain secret habit. Such
persons before contemplating
MARRIAGE,
Should reflect that a sound and body are the most
necessary requisites to promote connubia happiness,
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 THAI
the happiness of another becomes bghled with our
own.
CONSTITUTIONAL DEBILITY.
DR.. J. addresses young men and all who have iDi
jured themselves by private improper ndulgences
| IMP TENCE-TVE OF THE GEM
tai ORGANS.
Loss of vrile power is the penalty mostfreq uently
paid by those who give loose rein license to the
passions. Young persons are too apt 10 commute 4
cesses from not being aware of the dreadful effects
that may ensue. Although mpOtency occurs from
structure depostes in the urine, gravel, and from nu-
merOus other causes yet the abuse of the sexual Or
gans, by excessive venery or selfpOutOn; paYticu
larry the latter is the frequent OF it. Now
who that understands the subject will pretend to deny
that the power of pTOcreatng the species is lost
or by those who practice the solitary rice than by the
prudent. Besides, by premature impotence the d.
gestive functions deranged, and the physical and
mental powers weakened by teo frequent and 100
great excitement of the genital organs. Parents and
guardians are often misled, with respect TO ihe
sources of disease in their and wards
How often do they ascribe to other the vast
ing of the Frame idiOtcy, madness, papation 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 peniciOus though aluring practice, dess
| tructive to both mind and body.
INTOL UNT.ARY SEMINAL EMISSIONS,
OF this distressing disease, which is the common
result of the above mentioned secret habit hut very
brief description for many reasons, be given here,
! The complaint comes ON gradually. 1t begins by
hasty discharge of in cOpulative and pas
siOnate dreams. Such emissions being too hasty,
have power, while the ercctions are feeble imper
| feet and soon As the disorder grows worse,
the discharges or emissions become more easily eI-
cited and frequent, often brought by lascivious
ideas, or by merely touching the part. In this deplo
| rSble case, the emissions take place without any
pleasure and without erection, and in this debated
and sensitive state of the organs the diref effects Of
pollution so ruinous TO health, lake place day and
night. Pale, emacidted, and weak the unhappy vic
tim of artificial qualification complains OF pain in the
! head and back has a anguid look, dImness of sgh,
flushing of the face when spoken 10, Owness of spi
rits, and vague dread of something, often starting
with terror at a sudden sight or sound He also
oaths society, from an innate sense of shame, and
feels dislike to all bodily and mental exertiOn.-
! Distressed, and his mind fixed upon his mseries he
! slyly searches every source tha promises relief,
Ashamed TO make known his situation to his friends,
or those who by educdon, study and practical know
ledge are able to relieve him, he applies TO the igno-
rant and designing, who fitch him of his peCunar
substance, and instead Of restoring him 10 leatlth,
leave him to sigh over his CALLING disappointment; the
last scene of the drama winds up with mania, cata-
epsy, epilepsy or some terrible disease OF the nerves
and death drops the curtain, hunying the unhapp
patient to an untimelY tomb, where his friends
totally ignorant Of the real cause.
