This disease is the penalty most frequently paid
by those who have become the victims OF improp-
er indulgences. Young persons are too apt to
commit excuses from not being aware of the dread
full consequences that may ensue. Now, who that
understands the subject will pretend to deny that
the power of Procreation is lost sooner by those
falling into improper habits by tho prudent. Be-
sides being deprived the pleasure of healthy off,
spring, the most serious and dest uctive symptoms
to both body and mind arise. The system becomes

prematur decay generally arise from the Des-
~tructive habit of youth, that solitary practice SO
fatal to the healthful existence Of man, and it is
the young who are most apt to become its Victims
from an ignorance of the dangers to which they
subject themselves. Parents and Guardians are
often mislead with respect to the cause or source
of disease in their sons and wards. Alas +! how
often do they ascribe to other causes, the wasting
of the frame, Palpitation of the Heart, Dyspep-
sy, indigestion, arrangement of the Nervous Syg-
tenn, Cough, and Symptoms of Consumption, also,
those serious Mental effects, such as loss of mem
DRY, depression of spirits or peculiar fits of Melan-
choly, when the truth is they have been caused by
indulging in Pernicious but alluring practices, des-
tructive to both Body and Mind. Thus are swept
from existence, thousands who might have been
of use to their Country, q pleasure to their friend:
