Take Particular Notice.

There is an evil habit sometimes INDUCED in
By bows, in solitude, often growing up with
them to manhood and which if not reformed
in due time, not only begets serious obstacles
10 matrimonial happiness, but gives rise to .
series of protractet, lnsidious, and devastating
affections.
Few of those who give way to this PERM
cious practice are aware OF the consequences
until they find the nervous system shattered,
feel strange and unaccounlao sensations, and
vague fears 10 the mind. (See pages q, rs,
90, of Dr.. KS book on ''Self. Preservation.
The unfortunate thus affected become feeb-
le. is unable TO labor with accustomed yigor or
TO apply his mind TO study, his step is tardy and
weak; he is dull, mresolute, and engages even
in his sports with less energy than usual.
If he emancipate himself before the practice
hes done its worst, and enter matrimony his
marriage is unfruitful, and MS sense tets bin
that this is caused by his early follies.
These are considerations ,rhich should d,Cdken

Medical practice in Contrast.

DR.. Oliver Goldsmith, il is we'll known,
received medical education, and prae.
ticed to some extent among his friends,
bat with rather limited success. One
day, being disguised with the conduct of
one of these patients, he exclaimed to
his witty friend Beauclere, am deter.
mined henceforth not to practice any
more among my friends" "Tbst is
right, my Gear DOCTOR" was the reply.
When you propose to kill, advise you
to take your enemies"
Gen. Walker, of Nicaragua fame, was,
we believe bred to the same lprofe ssion,
but unlike the poet, he commenced prac
tioe among his enemies. His success,
too, is not to be 'despised, for We have
good reason to believe his " medicos"
have beon the death of some six or eight
thousand Central Americans 10 the space
Of few months, and had not his patients
become dfsgustsd with his practice, and
kicked him out, be might perhaps, have
disposed of the whole race. Forced to
quit this field, be has returned to his
friends, but what his success with them
will be, remains to be seen.
We think it safe at least to predict
that, should he be pstronizod by them
generally to the extent that he has been
in New Orleans, he will make such hav.
90 with them politically, as to fully sus.
tain his reputation.
The exhibition Gen. Walker has made
and is making Of himself and his cause,
10 the most remarkable demonstration of
the proximity of the sublime and the re.
dioulous, that this generation has been
privileged to behold. Anciently, when
6llibuatering was the great business Of
nations, q triumphal entrance into Rome
was but seldom accorded to the most
successful eouquerors, but now . missr.

ing but shameful defeat, has voted him.

could hardly expect cock who had inva.

forced to retreat sans fea theirs, sans tail,

himself for admiration in his own yard.
suoh impudsnce can only be expected of
Gen. Walker. 1. has been suggested
that be would probably be arrested and
made to answer for his crimes. We
hope this will not DO. A governme nt
Official has once interfered to snatch him
from the jaws of his enemies, and for
this the most uuqusstionable expression
Of friendship he has ever received, he
has been oursing him ever since, and 10
now making his complaints to the Presi

not again interfere and save him from
his friends, nor his friends and cause
from him. 1t is better to let him make
