DEPARTURE OF THE STEAMERs.-Tbf

DEPARTURE OF THE STEAMERs.-The
Pacific Mail Steamship Company's steamer
Golden Age, for Panama, and the Nicara-
que steamer Sierra Nevada, both left yes
terday afternoon-the latter about half
past three, and the other five. The Sier-
ra Nevada had over five hundred passen-
gers, of whom, we are informed, not more
than twelve or fifteen are destined for
Walker. The Golden Age carried some
seven hundred among whom, we regret
ted to notice, were a large number of la
dies. We dislike to lose any of our GOOD
citizens, more especially those of the gen
tie sex, for without their presence and en-
obling influence, San Francisco could ney-
er have attained her present prosperous
condition. The total number of passen-
gers by the two steamers is much LARGER
than has been taken on one day, for seye-
raj months, which fact may be attributed
mainly to the reduction in the rates of
passage. e.-Alta, 21st inst.

DIR. YOUNG addresses those who have iniur-
ed themselves by private and improper indul-
gences in that secret and solitary habit which
ruins the body and mind, uniting them for
either business or society. The following are
some of the sad and melancholy effects produc-
ed by early habits of YOUTH viz: weakness of
the back and limbs, pain in the head, dimness
of sight, loss Of muscular power, palpitation of
the heart dyspepsia, nervousness, irritability.
arrangement of the digestive functions, general
debility, symptoms of consumption, &c.
MENTALLY-The fearful effects upon the mind
are more to be dreaded. Loss of memory. con-
fusion of ideas, depression of spirits, evil fore
bodings, aversion to society, self-distrust love
of solitude, timidity, &C., are most of the evils
produced.
All persons who are afflicted with any of
the above symptoms should not fail to call on
DR.. Young, and be at once restored to perfect
health. Let no false delicacy prevent you, but
apply Immediately, and save yourself from the
dreadful and awful consequences of this terrible

There is no malady of deeper Importance,
either in a medical or moral point of view. to
which the human family is more liable. than
that arising from impure connections
As medical man, it is the duty of eyery
physician to look at disease as it affects health
and life, and his sole object should be to miti-
gate, as far as lies in his power, the bodily suf-
tering. Human nature at best is but frail: all
are liable to misfortune.
Of all the ills that affect man, none are more
terrible than those of private nature Dread
ful as it is in the person who contracts it.
frlghtful as are its ravages upon his constitu-
tion ending frequently in destruction and a
loathsome grave, it becomes of still greater i'm
portance when it is transmitted to innocent Off
spring. Such being the case, how necessary it
becomes that every one having the least reason
to fear that they have contracted the disease,
should attend to it at once, by consulting some
physician, whose responsibility and education
enables him to warrant safe speedy and per-
manent cure. In accordance with this necessi-
ty. DIR. 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 venereal
and having paid more attention to that branch
than any other physician in the United States,
he feels himself better qualified to treat them.
Syphilis IN all its forms, such as Swelling of
the Groins, Ulcers, Ulcers in the Throat, Sec
ondary Syphilis, Cutaneous Eruptions, Ulcera-
tions, Tertiary Syphilis, Syphilis in Children
Mercurial Syphilitic Affections Gonorrhea,
Gleet, Structures, False Passages, inflammation
OF the Bladder and PROSTATE Glands, Excoria-
tons, Tumors, Pustules, ETC., are as familiar to-
him as the most common things of daily obser--
vation.
The Doctor effects cure in recent cases in
few days, and finds no difficulty in curing those
OF long DURATION without submitting the pa
tient to such treatment as will draw upon him
the slightest suspicion, or oblige him to neglect
his business, whether 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

Hay~ For low spirit we recommend a
clear conscience, fresh air, lots of exer-
else and a taste for the flute "And it
came to pass when the evil spirit was in
Saul, that David took a harp and played
with his hands; so Saul was refreshed and
was well, and the evil spirit departed from
him." In treating diseases of the mind,
music is not sufficiently valued. In rails
ing the heart above despair, an old violin
is worth two doctors and two apothecary

BURSTING OF THE Big GUN.-On the
Sd Of August, whilst Mr. Dimick was ex-
perimenting on his newly invented rifle
cannon, it exploded, breaking into nine
pieces. The gun weighed 1888 pounds,
and was made of fine malable iron. The
front part of the gun-about five feet in
length-blew away from the breach, the
latter blowing into eight fragments. Some
of these, weighing five hundred pounds,
were thrown forward from two to three
hundred feet, and projected into the air
from forty to fifty feet. But the most
singular part of the story remains to be
told. The ball, which weighed eighteen
pounds, was thrown to nearly the elevation
which it would have reached had the burst
ing not taken place, striking the ground at
about $4,000 or 10000 yards.-&. Louis
