AND REFLECT.

If there's an hereafter,
And that there is, conscience, uninfucnced,
And suffered to speak out tells every man,
Then it is an awful thing to die,
More horrid yet to die at ones own hand.
Shall Nature, swerving from her earliest dictate,
preservation, fall by its own act7
Forbid it Heaven
The indulgence in secret pratice is the most
certain, though not always the most immedi-
ate and direct, avenue to destruction. Physi-
clans of all ages have been most unanimously
of opinion that the loss of one ounce of semi
nal secretions, by unnatural aid or emissions;
weakens the system more than the abstraction
of forty ounces of blood. One of the FIRST
writers on medical jurisprudence states that
three-fourths of the insane owe their malady to
such abuse.
How important then, it is for every one havs
ing the least cause to suspect any trouble in
that way to attend to it Immediately; even
one single occurrence should be sufficient to-
cause doubt, and much more so If the person
had ever INDUCED in the soul-killing habit,

There is no malady of deeper Importance,
either in medical or moral point of view, to
which the human family is more liable, than
that arising from impure connections.
AS medical man, it is the duty of every
physician to look at disease as it affects health
and life, and his sole object should be to miti-
gate, rs far lies in his power, the bodily suf-
fering. Human nature at best is but fr;lil all

Of all the ills that affect man, none are more
terrible than those of a private nature. Dread

portance when it is transmitted to innocent off,
spring. Such being the case how necessary it
becomes that every one having the least 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 a safe, speedy and per-
manent cure. In accordance with this necessi-
ty. DIR. YOUNG feels called upon to state

College, while performing the experiment of making
electrical light, recently was very nearly blinded by
the intenseness of the light; since which he has been
obliged to confne himself to dark room. So pain
fully intense is the impression left upon the retna of
his eyes, that though the room is so dark that his

What Is Intended.

The Garrison Abolition purity, says the New York
Express is only the advance guard Of what is called
. the Republican Party" Garrison, eight or ten
years ago, was but where the Republican party is
now-and hence where that party is to be ten years
hence we can see by the following Garrison pro-
gramne:
We reterate former declaration that the object
of the society is not merely to make liberty national
and slavery sectional nor to prevent the acquisition
Of Cuba, to restore the Missouri compromise,
to repeal the Fugitive Slave bill, nor to make
Kansas a free State, nor to resist the admission
OF any slave State into the Union, nor to term
nate slavery in the District of Columbia and in the
Northern Territoriesbut it is primarily, comprehen
svely and uncompromisingy to effect the immediate,
total and eternal overthrow Of slavery, wherever it
exists on American soil, and to expose and confront
whatever party or sect seeks to purchase peace or
success at the expense Of human liberty. Living or
dying our motto is No union with shareholders rei-
gionsly or politically a,.
In behalf OF the Executive Committee,
WM. LLOYD GARRISON, Pres't.
S. II. GAY and WENDELL PHILLIps, Sec'ys.
This is frank and manly, continues the same au-
thorty, and it is just what all aboltonism means
the dissolution Of tile union of the slayehoding and
non-slayeholdng States.
Undoubtedly there is no question Of the ultimate
designs OF the Abolitionists. The intentions of our
enemies are precisely the same, although the Black
Republicans pretend to veil theirs by protesting to
wage war only against the extension of slavery into
the territories Give them the power they expect to
obtain in $780, and they will become radical, unre
lentng and ferocous as. are the Garrisonian Adolf
tionists Of Massachusetts,. The Southern man who
holds to a contrary opinion has read history to nc
purpose and is as ignorant unborn babe Of the
| magn constituents of fanatcism. Fanaticism, like
revolution, must run its course or be crushed beneath
the heel of superior power As there is-no power in
the land to arrest the progress Of fanaicsm it will
its until it overwhens every barrier erected
by the Constitution to protect the minority in thu
