| IMPORTANT To MINERS TRAVELLERS, ETc.--Thert
L is no maady Of deeper Importance, either in Q
medical or moral point of view, to which the hui
man family is more liable than that arising from
impure connection.
As medical man, il is the duty Of every physi
clan to look at disease it affects health and life
and his sole object should be to mitigate as far a.
lies in his power, the bodily suffering Humun ma
ture at best is but rail all are liable to misfortune
OF all the ills that affect man. none are more ter
ribe than those of private nature. Dreadful al
il is in the person who contracts it, frghtful are
its ravages upon his constitution, ending frequently
in destruction and loathsome grave, it becomes o
still greater Importance when ii is transmitted &c
innocent offspring. Such being the case how ne
cessary it becomes that every one having reason tc
fear that they have contracted the disease, should
attend to il at once by consulting some physician
whose responsibility and education enables him &c
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 groins ulcers in the throat secondary syphil
is outaneous eruptions alterations tertiary syphil-
s syphilis in children, nercureal syphlitic affec-
tons gonorrhea. geet, structures. false passages.
Inflammation of the bladder and PROSTATE glands,
excoriations, tumors postues etc, as familiar
to him as the most common things of daily observa-
ton.
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-
picon. 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 (amountng 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.
