DISEASE OF IMPRUDENCE.

delaying tilt the constitutional symptoms of this
horrid disease makes their appearance, such as
liberated sore throat, diseased nose, nocturnal
nains in the head and limbs, dilnness of sight,
deafness nodes on the shin bones and arms,
blotchcs on the head, face and extremites, pro-
crossing with frighttul rspidity, till at last the
palate of the mouth or the bones of the
nose fall in and the victim OF this awful disease
becomes horrid object of commisseration till
death puts period to his dreadful suffering, by
sending him to that undiscovered country from
whence no traveller returns"

into lto' the hands of ignorant or unskilful PRE-
TENDERS, who, by the use of that deadly
Poison, Mercury, &c, destroy the constitution.
