| IMPORTANT TO MINERS. TRAVELLERS. ETc.-Thert
i is no malady of deeper importance, either in Q
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, il is the duty of every physi-
clan to look at disease as it affects health and life
aud bis sole object should be to mitigate, as far
lies in his power, the bodily suffering Humun ma
ture at best is but rail all are liable to misfortune
Ofall 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, rightful are
its ravages upon his constitution, ending frequently
in destruction and loathsome grave, it becomes of
still greater Importance when il 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 il at once by consulting some physician,
whose respectabity and education enables him to
warrant u safe, speedy and permanent cure. In ac-
cordance with this necessity, DIR. Young feelscalled
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-
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 ulcers, swelling
in the groins ulcers in the throat secondary syphi
is cutaneous eruptions alterations tertiary syphil
is, syphilis in children, mercureal syphiliic atlec
tions, gonorrh9a, glee structures. false passages,
inflammation of the bladder and PROSTATE glands,
excoriations, umors, postules, etc, are as familiar
to him as the most common things of daily observa-
tion.
The Doctor effects n 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-
pcion, or obige him to neglect his business, wheth
er within doors or without. The diet need not be
changed, except in cases Of severe inflammation

two thousand in the past Year, that could furnish
proof of this but these are matters that require
