IMPORTANT TO MINERS, TRAVELLERS. ETc.-There
i is no maady 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, 1t is the duty of every physi-
clan to look at disease as il affects health and fe
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 are 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, frghful are
its ravages upon his constitution, ending frequently
in destruction and oathsome grave, 1t becomes of
still greater Importance when it is transmitted to
innocent offspring Such being the case how ne
cessary il 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 ve
nerea, 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 cutaneous eruptons ulcerations tertiary syphil
is syphilis in children, mercureal syphiltic afiec
tons gonorrhGa geet, structures. false passages,
inflammation Of the bladder and PROSTATE glands,
excoratons, tumors postules ETC., as familiar
to him as the most common things of daily observa-
tion.
The Doctor effects 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-
pcon, oblige 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.

jured themselved by private and improper indul-
gences in that secret and solitary habit which ruins
the body and mind, uniting them for either bust
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, dimness of sight, loss of muscular pow
err palptation of the heart, dyspepsia nervousness
irritability; arrangement of the digestive functions
general debility, symptoms of consumption, &c
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, tmid-
ity, &C., &C., are some of the evils produced.
All persons who afflicted with any of the
above symptoms should not fail to call on Dr. \.
and be at once restored to perfect health. Let no
false delcacy prevent you, but apply Immediately,

inc so speedily recovered. Icannot depict the suf
fering of mind which / endured, whilst my bodily

confusion in my brain, timidity, the nervousness,
when would get the least excited or alarmed, the
love of solitude, the want of appetite and weak
ness generally but particularly of my limbs, have
all disappeared, as have the nocturnal emissions,
and the remains, of an old disease that my folly
had brot on me. For all this feel truly thank
