What pity that q young man, the nope oi
his country, the pride of his parents, should be
snatched from all prospects and cnjoyments3 OF
life by the consequence or deVlating from Inc
path Of nature, and lndulSlng IN \ ceFtain Se

plating .or
reflect that q sound mind and body are the most
necessary requisites TO promote connublal hap
pincss Indeed, without these the journey
through life becomes q weary pilgrimage; the
prosp, ct hourly darkcns to the view, the mind
becomes shadOwcd with despair and filled WITH
the melancholy reflection that the happiness g.
another becomes blighted with your own.
DISEASES OF IMPRUDENCA.
when the misguided and imprudcnt Votsry
of pleasure finds that he has mbibed tho seeds
of this painful disease it too often happens that
an il-tim imel sense Of shame or dread OF discoV-
cry dctcrs him from applying to those, VINO,
from education and responsibility, can alone
befriend him, delaying till the constitutional
symptoms Of this horrd disease make their ap,,
pearance, such as liberated sore throat, dlseaSeo
nose nocturnal pains II the head ana hmos'
dimncss of sight, deafness, nodes on the SHIN
bones and arms, botches on the head, face ana
extrcmities, pro crossing with frighttul rapdlty
till at last the palate Of the mouth or the bones
Of the nose fall in, and the victim OF this aWlnL
disease becomes a horrd object of commlssera-
tion till death puts period to his dreadful sut-
fcrings, by sending him to that Undiscoverct
Country from whence no traveller returns"
1t is a MELAN CHOLY FACT that thou
sands fall victims to this terrible disease, owing
to the unskilfulness Of ignorant pretenders, W39:
by the use Of that DEADLY POISON, MY T.
curry, ruin the constitution and make the
residue Of life miserable.
