i is no malady of deeper Importance. either in a
medical or moral point of view, to which the hu-
man family is more liable than that arising from
impure connection.
As a medical man. ii is the duty of every phvsi-
clan to look at disease as it affects health and life
and his sole object should be to mitigate, as far as
lies in his power the bodily suffering Humun ma
ture at best is but frail all liable to misfortune

rible than those of a private nature. Dreadful rs
it is in the person who contracts it, rightful as are
its ravages upon his constitution ending frequently
in destruction and loabsome grave il becomes of
still greater Importance when il is transmitted to
innocent offspring. Such being the case how ne
cessary 1t 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 respectability 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

eXcoratons, tumors, postules, etc, are as familiar

The Doctor effects a cure in recent cases in a few
days, and finds no difficulty in curing those of long
duration, without submitting the patient to such
treatment as will draw upon him the slightest sus-
picion, or oblige him to neglect his business wheh-
er within doors or without. The diet need not be
changed except in eases Of severe inflammation
