path of nature, and indulging in pernicious
habits. Such persons must, before comtemplat-

DISEASES OF IMPRUDENCE.
When the misguided and imprudent votary
Measure finds that he has imbibed the seeds
this painful disease, it too often happens that an
il-tllncd sense OF shame or dread of discovery dc
terS MIN ITOHl applying W 1hooo iiNAii Cuo
cation and respectabillty, can alone bcfriend him,
delaying till the constitutional symptoms of this.
horrld disease makes their appearance such ss
ulcerated sore throat, diseased nose, nocturnal
Iuins in the head and limbs, dmness of sight,
deafness, nodes on the shin bones and arms,
blotches on the head face and ext1emites re-! pro,
oalate Of the mouth or the bones of the nose
fall in and the victim Of this awful disease be-
comes a horrid object of conmisseration till
death puts period to his dreadful suffering, by
sending hi,r to that undiscovered country from
whence no traveller returns" -
It is melancholy fact that thousands PIE
into the hands of ignorant or unskiltul PRE-
TENDERS, who, by the use of that deadly
Poison, Mercury, SC, destroy, the constitution.
and incapable Of curing, keep the unhappy SUI
tnrer month after month taking their noxious OF
injurious compounds, and instead Of being re
stored to a renewal of Life, Vigor and Happiness
in despair leaves him nth ruined Health to sigh
over his Calling disappointment.
