DISEASES OF IMPRUDENCE.
When the misguided and imprudcnt vot.ry Of
pleasure finds that he has i1nbibed the seeds of
this painful disease, it too often happens thnl nn
il-tlncd sense of shame or dread of discovery de-
ters him from applying to those who, from cIu-
cation and respectabillty, can alone pclrlend hIm
delaying till the constitutional symptoms "i the
horrid disease makes their appearance, such rs
liberated sore throat, diseased nose, nocturnal
pains in the head and limbs dimness Of sight,
icnfness, nodes on the shin bones and arms:
botchcs on the head face end extremitics pro-
pressing with frightfu rapidity, till al !ast tho
palate Of the mouth Or the bones of the nose
fall in, and the victim of this awful disease be-
comes u horrid object of commiss"ration I'LL
death puts period to his dreadful suffering, by
sending him to that undiscovered country from
whence no traveller returns"
1t is \ melancholy fact that thousands DIE
victims to this terrible disease, through falling
into the hands of ignorant or unsHiiul PRE-
TENDERS who, by the use Of that .desdiy
Poison, Mercury, &c, destroy the constitution
and incapable OF curing, keep the unhappy suf
farer month after month taking their noxlous or
INJURIOUS compounds, and instead Of being re
stored to renewal Of Life, Vigor and Happiness
in despsir leaves him with ruined Ho"Lh to sigh
