DISEASES OF IMPRUDENCE.
When the misguided and irnprudent votary of
pleasure finds that he has lmbloed the SEEDS OF
this painful disease, it too often happens that an
ill-tlncd sense of shame or dread of discovery de-

horrld disease makes their appearance, such as
liberated sore throat, diseased nose, nocturnal
pains in the head and limbs, dimncss of sight,
deafness, nodes on the shin bones and arms,
blotches on the head, face and extremties pro-
crossing with frightfu rapidity, till at last the
palate Of the mouth or the bones OF the nose
fall in. and the victim of this awful disease be-
comes a 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 t the hands of ignorant or unskiIful PRE-
TENDERS. who, by the use Of that deadly
Poison, Mercury, SC, destroy the constitution
and incapable of curing keep the unhappy sat:
INJURIOUS compounds, and instead of being re-
stored to renewal of Life, vi gor and Happiness
in despair leaves him with ruined Health to sigh
over his CALLING disappointment.
