Incomes shadoWed with despair, md Tiled with
tLe me- sncholy reflection that the happiness Of

DISEASE OF F1MPRUDENCE.
When misguided and imprudcnt vots.ry OF
pleasur1 nds that be has lnblbed tho seeds OF
this Sin .u disease, it too often happens that Nh
l-tanes ense Of shame or dread OF discovery de-
ters INN from applying to those who from educa-
ton a1drespcctability, can alone betrend him,
delaying't till the constitutional symptoms of this
horrid disease makes their appearance, such rs
liberated sore throat, diseased nose nocturnal
pains in the head and limbs, dnnsss of sight
deafness, nodes on the shin bones and arms
blotches on the head, face and extremi:iccs, pro
crossing with frightful rapidity, till at ast tho
Ualate of the mouth or the bones Of the
nose fall in, and the victim Of this awful disease
becomes u horrid object of commisseraton till
death puts 3 period 10 his dresdiul suffering, by
sending him to mat undiscovered country from
M tr. weller rptIirus.'
II is u melancholy fact that thousands DIE
victims to this terrible disease, through, nI!Tns
into the hands Of ignorant or unakillui PRE-
TENDERS, who, by the use oil that dcsIly
Poison, Mercury, &c, destroy, tic constitution,
and incapable Of curing, keep the Unhappy s'h'
INJURIOUS compounds, and instead Of being e
stored to q REM wal ol Life, VgornnI Happiness
in despair leave him with ruined Hes.Lh :" sigh
over his calling disappointment.
