tary Vice, that dreadful and destructive habit

nervousness, being alarmed at sudden soHnis,
bashiulness, with frequent blushing, ATTENDED
sometimes with arrangement OF mind, were cured

TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.

/ themselves by improper Indulgence and solitary
habits. which ruin both body and miHd, uniting
them for either business, study, society or mar

Love of Solitude, Timidity, &c., ar: some Of tn,
( evils produced
THOUSANDS Of persons OF all ages can now
judge what is the cause Of their declining health
losing their vigOr, becoming, weak, pale, nervou;
and cmaciated, having a singular appearance
about the eyes, cough and symptoms ofconsump
ton.
/ Who have injured themselves by certain prac

I sihic, and destroys both mind and body, SHOULD

What Pity that young man, the hope Of hi
country, the darling of his parents, should b,
snatchcA from all prospects and enjoymcnts O
life, by the consequence of deviating from tn
path Of nature and indUlging in a certain secrc
habit. Such persons MUST, before cOntempiatin,
MARRIAGE,
reflect that a sound mind and boly are the mos
fA
ness. Indeed without these, the journey through
life becomes weary pilgrimage; the prospec
hourly darkcns to the view the mind become
shadowed with despair and file! with the melan
choly reflection, that the happiness OF aYothc
becomes blightcd with our own.
= CERTAIN DISEASE.
When the misguided and mprudeut Yotpry O
pleasure finds that he has imbihcd the scc o
this painful disease ii too often happens HAT al
ill-tmel sense OF shame, or dread of discovery
datcrs him from applying to those who, from
education and respcctabty, can alone beir!en
him, delaying till the constitutional symptoms o
this horriI disease make their appearance, sucl
as ulcrrated sore throat, diseased nose, npctura
pains in the head and limbs, dimness of sight
deafness, nodes on the shin bones and arms
blotches on the head, face and eNtremitios, pro
crossing with frightful rapidty, till at last tn
palate of the mouth or the bones Of the nose ta)

a LOrTii object of cOmmiscratlOn, Til death pU'
Il period TO his dreadful suffering, b. seHiIn
him TO - that Undiscovered Country from wA-uc
no traveller returns"
It il a melancholy fact that thousands Dil
victims to this terrible disease. through ialu
into the hands Of Ignorant or unskiiliui PRE-
TENDERS, who, by the use of that deadly Poi
son, Mercury, &C., destroy the constitution, an
incapable of curing, keep the uiaHppv suiere
month after month taking IL % aoxious or in
iurious compounds, and instead OF being restore
to n renewal of Life NigOr and Happiness, in des
pair leave him with ruined Health to sigh owe
his CALLING disappointment.
