SPERMATORRHqiA, or Local WEAKNESS
~ CZAPkAY, late lecturer on Diseases of women
and children, and chief Surgeon of the Military
Hospital of Pesth, Hungary would call public at
tention to spermatorrhga or local weakness. There
is not in the catalogue Of human malades one more
to be deprecated than this well because of pres
ent Distress as the ultimate results The tone of
the system under its deterorating influence is
either impaired or entirely destroyed, and n class
OF symptoms superindueed. that units man for the
performance of any of the ordinary duties of life
The injuries done to the physical part of man are
truly lamentable, but trifing when compared to
those OF the censorium, the great nervous centre,
and to the great nervous system generally. This
disease which is too often consequent upon that sol
tary vice, selfabuse, involves pathological condi-
tons beyond the comprehension of the uninitiated
but which are we'll understood by the regular prac
titioner. Among the symptoms most conspicuous
are the following Love Of solitude, aversion to
business and society, distressing timidity. nervous
excitement from slight causes, loss OF memory, con
fusion of ideas, inability to reason, correctly low
spirits and assitude, dizziness of apprehension and
misanthropy. These being functional derange
ments are often the harbingers of horrld organic
lessons of the BRAIN which produces faulty, demen
tia and death.
For the cure of this and all kindred Of diseases
Dr. Czapkav has established his Institute where al
map rely with perfect confidence upon that skill
which long experience and thorough devotion {,
his profession has given. Those who suffer should
call without delay, and use the means by which they
may recuperate and live. All consultation, by let
ter or otherwise, free.

SYPll1l.lS AND GONoRRHGA.--Dr. l.. j. Czapkay
~ would ask especial attention to syphilitc and
gonorrheal diseases. In the first stages of these
complaints he guarantees perfect and efIectual
cure in few days without hindrance to business or
the slightest Inconvenience. The Doctors method
of treating them combines oil the latest improve
ments by the medical faculty with discoveries made
by himself more effective than anything vet known
which securesthe patient from the possibility of sec
ondary symptoms, and removes the disease in the
shortest possible time.
Secondary syphilis which appears in consequence
of the absorption Of the poison into the system and
produces Bubps Ulcerations in the throat and nose
which destroy the soft parts, and the bone TO
mortify, separate and come away, dsfguring the
patient horribly. Nodes or painful swelings in the
bones; splotches upon the skim cases of which the
Doctor daily in his Office and which are the re-
suit OF improper treatment Also, ulcers sores and
pimpes and injuries to the constitution, which af
ter long period of suffering, destroy life. II will
also be remembered that these disorders are heredit
airy, passing from parent to child, and entailng
upon the offspring a ruined constitution For the
cure of all these forms of diseases the doctor guar
antees cure or asks no compensation.

IMPORTANT TO MINERS, TRAVELLERS Erc.-There
i is no malady of deeper Importance, either in a
medical or moral point Of view, to which the hui
man family is more liable than that arising from
impure connection.
As a medical man, il is the duty of every physi-
clan TO look at disease as il affects health and life,
and his sole object shond 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
OF all the ills that affect man, none are more ter
rible than those of a private nature. Dreadful as
it is in the person who contracts it, frghtfu as are
its ravages upon his constitution, ending frequently
in destruction and loathsome grave, 1t becomes of
still greater Importance when it is transmitted to
innocent offspring. Such being the case how ne
cessary it becomes that every one having reason to
fear that they have contracted the disease should
attend TO ii at once by consulting some physician,
whose responsibility and education enables him to
warrant a 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 grons ulcers in the throat secondary syphil
is cutaneous eruptions alterations tertiary syphil
is, syphilis in children, mercureal syphilitc afec
tons, gonorrh9a glect, structures. false passages,
inflammation of the bladder and PROSTATE glands,
excavations, tumors, postues etc. are as familiar
to him as the most common things OF daily obscrva-
ton.
The Doctor effects a cure in recent cases in 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
picon, obge him to neglect his business, wheth-
cr within doors 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 sccresy, which he always preserves.
