elf there is hereafter,
And that there is, conscience unin-
fuenced,
And suffered to speak out, tells every
man,
2Aen it is an awful thing to die,
More horrid yet to die by ones own

Self-murder-name it not
Shall Nature, swearing from her ear
Hest dictate,
Self preservation, fall by its own act'
Forbid it, Heaven"
THE indulgence in secret practices is
the most certain, though not always the
most immediate and direct avenue to
destruction. Physicians of all ages have
been most unanimously Of opinion that
the loss of one ounce Of the seminal Sc
cretions, by unnatural aid Or emissions,
weakens the system more than the abb
straction of forty ounces of blood. One
of the FIRST writer's on medical juris-
prudence states that three fourths of
the insane owe their malady to such a.
buse.
How important, then, it is-for every
enc having the least cause to suspect
any trouble in that way, should attend
to it Immediately; even one single oc-
currence should be sufficient to cause
doubt, and much more so if the person
had ever INDUCED in the soul killing
habit. The treatment pursued by the
justly celebrated Or. J C. Young, in
cases of seminal weakness, impotency,
sterility, nervous debility, and paralysis,
(the last is the most dangerous, and
when it once occurs, is incurable,) is
surpassed by any physician in the coun-
try. 1t is the same as that followed by
him for years, under the guidance Of
the world renowned Record of Paris,
and Acton of London. DR.. Young

A CARD.

FROM DR.. J. G. Young's Private
Medical Office.-To THE AFFLICTED.
In this age of progress, when science is
developing itself in such manner as to
appear almost miraculous, everything in
common place is looked upon as not
worth notice. In view of this fact, DR..
YeUNG, corner Of Montgomery and
California streets, San Francisco, Cali
fornia, has concluded to leave the beat
en- track hitherto pursued by most sci
entifc physicians, (that of waiting for
the public to find you out alone, and
publish to the world ,as much as may be,
his knowledge of the healing art, to let
those who are in need of assistance
know where they can find relief, with
out fear of being imposed upon.
In continuation of this object, DR..
Young would say that for the past ten
years he has pursued the practice of
medicine in one of the largest cities Of
the United States, with the highest sue
cess, and that his standing as physi-
clan is without reproach, having at one
time been lecturer at the University of
Pennsylvania on venerial diseases, &c.
Upon all these considerations, DIR.
Young has confidence in introducing
himself to the public, knowing that they
will sustain we'll earned merit
The following are few of the many
testimonials, which have appeared in the
public journals the last few years:
From the Boston Medical Journal.
Although we are opposed to the 'sys-
tenn of advertising, for good and suffi-
Gent reasons, still We deem it but JUS
tice to say that DR.. Young is one of the
most industrious and indefatigable vo-
taries of the medical science in the Uni
ted States.
From Professor Jackson
The subscriber is personally acquaint-
ed with DR.. Young, and has seen much
of his practice, and can bear testimony
to his merits as practitioner.
From the New York Herald
The eniinence of this distinguished
gentleman in his profession, and the
very extended opportunities possessed
by him for the observation of veneral
disease, makes his services invaluable
to those afflicted with the above COM
plants.

PRIVATE MEDICAL OFFICE.
HUNDREDS of those who have con-
tractcd disease are disappointed of a
cure by not calling on DR.. YOUNG at
first. He will forfeit any sum if he fails
to cure any case that may come under
his care, no matter how long standing
and afflilting, such as ulcers, tumors,
nodes, punches, pimples on TIE face and
body, pains in the bones and joints,
wakcfulness, trembling, copper olored
sores. wasting of the bones, emancia-
ton; loss of appetite, strength and flesh,
sores in the nase and ears, loss of hair,
weak eyes, itching humors, &c., &C.
Many persons, after being relieved of
all external appearances of private dis
ease, suppose themselves cured, but af-
ter few months find they are troubled
with various symptoms which they new
er had before, and which they find it
impossible to relieve.
10 all who are afflicted in this way,
DR.. Young would particularly recon-
mend trial of his skill. The symp-
toms with which you are troubled are
caused by taints in the blood, which
sooner or later will destroy your health
and happiness No person who has ev-
err had an attack Of any private COM
plant should fail to consult DR.. Young,
and take few bottles Of his invaluable
purifying medicine. as they can rest as
sured that their blood is in perfectly
pure and healthy condition, and that cv-
cry trace Of disease is removed from the
system.
Recent cases cured in from two to
five days, without change of diet or
hindrence from business, or no charge.

the cure Of old, long standing cases of
gonorrhea and elects, which he has tri-

skill Of eminent physicians for years !;
and in not one single case has it failed,
nor can it ever fail, as the nature of the
remedy is such that it strikes at the
root Of the complaint, and eradicates it
completely in few days. New cases

" The PROPER STUDY OF MANKIND is
MAN"
BY J.C. YOUNG. MD.
Author of "Comparative Anatomy
etc., Graduate ofthe University of P enn-
sylvania, Honorary Member Of the Roy
al College of Surgeons, ETC., etc.
The above work is emphatically the
book for the age 1t is one of the most
complete works of the kind that has ever
been published, presenting as it does the
minute analysis of every form of veneri-
al disease incident to both sexes, and
above all entering into aud describing
particularly the awful work of that ter
rible disease so common among young
men, known as masturbation. The
knowledge to be derived by every one
in having a copy of this work in their
possession is beyond conception ; as any
person who has the slightest reason to
believe that they are afflicted with a
disease, of which they have been igno-
rant, can, by referring to its pages, in a
few minutes fully understand the nature
of that disease, and be made aware of
the effects attending it; and thus they
may in season apply the proper remedies
and avert its heretofore unseen progress,
which was fast undermining their con-
stitution, and would have resulted either
in death, or what is as awful to contem-
plate, destroying forever the health and
happiness of the unfortunate victim.
In the preparation of this work, the
author has not only given a practical
exposition of his own labors, but has
freely consulted and compiled from the
works of the most popular writer's of the
day, thus presenting careful and well
digested compendium of the most impor-
tant facts and principles furnished by
the ablest writer's that ever lived. This
is sufficient, it is hoped as test of it's
accuracy and of its untold practical value
and utility.
On the receipt of enc dollar, this in
valuable work will be sent to any part
of the state.
