Colleges in the United States, and the greater

TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
DR.. J. addresses ell those who have injurrd

Who have injured themselves by a certain prac

effects of which are nightly felt, even whel

What pity that young man, the hope of hi
country, the darling of his parents, should b
snatchcd from all prospects and enjoymcnts q
| life, by the consequence of devisting from tn
| path of nature and indulging in a certain secre
| habit. Such persons MUST, before contemplatin
| MARRIAGE,
! reflect that sound mind and body are the mos
necessary requisites to promote connubial happ
ness. Indeed without these, the journey throuS
| life becomes Il weary pilgrimage; the prospeC
| hourly darkcns to the view the mind become
shadowed with despair and filled with the melar
choy reflection, that the happiness of anothC
| becomes blghted with our own.
CERTAIN DISEASE.
When the misguided and nnprudent yotary {
! pleasure finds that he has imbibed the seeds
this painful disease, it too often happens that a
ill-timed sense of shame, or dread of discover!
deters him from applying to those who, frol
education and respcctsbility, can alone befrien
him, delaying till the constitutional symptoms
this horrid disease make their appearance, sue
| as liberated sore throat, diseased nose, noctur
pains in the head and limbs, dimness of sigh
| deafness, nodes on the shin bones and arm
blotches on the head, face and extremities, pr
crossing with frightful rapidity, till at last Il
palate of the mouth or the bones of the nose IL
in, and the victim of this awful disease becom
a horrid object of commiseration, till death pu
a period to his dreadful suffering, by sendil
him to " that Undiscovered Country from when
no traveller returns"
1t is n melancholy fact that thousands Dl
victims to this terrible disease, through falliI
into the hands of Ignorant or unskillful PR
TENDERS, who, by the use of that deadly Pc
son, Mercury, &C., destroy the constitution, al
incapable of curing, keep the unhappy suiier
month after month taking their uoxious or i
furious compounds, and instead of being restor
to a renewal of Life Vigor aud Happiness, in dc
pair leave him with ruined Health to sigh oy
his CALLING disappointment.
To such, therefore, DR.. JOHNSTON pledges hiI
self to preserve the most lnviolable Secrecy, Al
from his extensive practice and observations
the great Hospitals of Europe, and the first
, this country, viz; England, France, Philadelph
and elsewhere, is enabled to offer the most Ct
tain, speedy and effectual remedy in the wor
for all diseases of imprudence.
