IMPORTANT TO MINERS, TRAVELLERS, ETc.-There
L is no malady of deeper Importance, either in a
medical or moral point of view, to which the hui
man family is more liable than that arising from
impure connection.
AS medical man, II is the duty of every physi-
oan to look at disease il affects health and life,
and his sole object should be to mitigate, far as
lies in his power, the bodily suffering. Humun ma
ture at best is but frai all liable to misfortune.
OF all the ills that affect man, none are more ter
rible than those of private nature. Dreadful as
it is in the person who contracts it, frghtu as are
its ravages upon his constitution, ending frequently
in destruction and loathsome grave, it becomes of
still greater Importance when il is transmitted to
innocent offspring Such being the case how ne
cessary it becomes that every one having reason to
fear that they have contracted the disease should
attend to it at once by consulting some physician,
whose respectabity and education enables him to
warrant safe, speedy, and permanent cure In ac-
cordance with this necessity, DR.. Young feels called
upon to state that by long study and extensive
practice he has become perfect master of all those
diseases, which come under the denomination of We
nereal and having paid more attention to that one
branch than any other physician in the United States
he feels himself better qualified to treat them.
Syphilis in all its forms, such as ulcers, swelling
in the grons, ulcers in the throat, secondary syphi
is, cutaneous eruptions ulceratOns tertiary syphi-
is, syphilis in children, mercureal syphlitic aiec-
tions, gonorrhGa, gleet structures. false passages
Inflammation of the bladder and PROSTATE glands,
excavations, tumors, postules, etc. as familiar
to him as the most common things of daily observa
tion.
The Doctor effects cure in recent cases in few
days and finds difficulty in curing those OF long
duration, without submitting the patient to such
treatment as will draw upon him the slightest sus-
pcion, or obge him to neglect his business, wheth
er within doors or without. The diet need not be
changed, except in cases of severe Inflammation
There are in California patients amounting to over
two thousand in the past year, that could furnish
proof of this; but these are matters that require
the incest secresy, which he always preserves
All letters, enclosing $40, will be promptly at
tended to. Office hours from A. NJ. to p. NJ.

tention to spermatorrhpa or local weakness There
is not in the catalogue of human maladies one more
to be deprecated than this well because of pres
ent Distress as the ultimate results The tone OF
the system under its deter0rating influence is
either impaired or entirely destroyed, and class
of symptoms supernduced that units man for the
performance of any of the ordinary duties Of life
The injuries done TO the physical part of man are
truly lamentable, but trihing when compared to
those of the censorum, the great nervous centre.
and to the great nervous system generally. This
disease which is too often consequent upon that sol
itary vice, selfabuse involves pathological condi-
tions beyond the comprehension of the unintiated
but which are well understood by the regular prac
ttioner. Among the symptoms most conspicuous
are the following Love OF solitude aversion to
business and society, distressing timidity. nervous
excitement from slight causes loss of memory. CON
fusion of ideas inability to reason, correctly, low
spirits and lasstude, dulness of apprehension and
misanthropy. These being functional derange-
ments. are often the harbingers of horrd organic
lessons of the BRAIN which produces faulty demen-
tia and DEATH
For the cure Of this and all kindred of diseases
DR.. Czapkay has established his Institute, where all
map rely with perfect confidence upon that skill
which long experience and thorough devotion to
his profession has given. Those who suffer should
call without delay and use the means by which they
may recuperate and live All consultation, by let

CONSTITUTIONAL Debility, or seminal weak
~ ness-Dr. Young addresses those who have in
jured themselved by private and improper indul-
gences in that secret and solitary habit which ruins
the body and mind, uniting them for either busi-
ness or society The following are some of the sad
and melancholy effects produced by early habits of
youth, viz Weakness in the back and limbs, pain
in the head, dmness of sight loss Of muscular pow
er palpitation Of the heart dyspepsia, nervousness
rritablity arrangement of the digestive functions,
general debility, symptoms of consumption DC.
MENTALLY the fearful effects on the mind are
more to be dreaded. Loss of memory, confusion OF
ideas, depression of spirits, evil forebodngs aver
sion to society sefdistrust love Of solitude, tmd
ity, &c, &C., are some of the evils produced.
All persons who are afflicted with any of the
above symptoms should not fail to call on DIR. \.

The attention of the reader is called to the fol-
lowing: 4 lady of high standing in society, and
great respectabiity, published card in the Phil
adelphia Sunday Dispatch, September lith, 1851
which is as follows:
"A CARD-The undersigned feels it her duty
to express her heartfelt gratitude to DR.. Czapkay.
for the successful cure Of herself and child. The
latter having been afflicted by severe attack of
Cholera Infantum,' was given up as incurabe by
some Of the most celebrated physicians, when she
called on DIR. CZapkay--of whom she heard very fa-
vorabe report and who, after short period, resto-
red the child to perfect health Encouraged by
this extraordinary result, she sought advice herself
for the scrofulOus malady with which she had been
afflicted for ight years, and which withstood the
treatment of the best physicians in Europe and
America. But Dr. Czapkay has succeeded in alor
ding her permanent relief, so that she can now en-
joy life, which, after eight years. had lost all
charms to her. She therefore deems il due to her
self and to all sick and afflicted to recommend DR.
Czapkay one of the most skllful physicians il
