Colleges in the nitcd States, and the greater
part Of whose life has been spent IN the hospl-
tais of London, Paris, Philadelphia and else
where, has effected some of the most astonishing

TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
DR.. J. addresses all those who have injured
themselves by improper indulgence and solitary
habits. which ruin both body and mind, uRhttlng
them for either business, study, society or mar
riage. ,,,
fects produced by the early habits of youth, viz:
Weakness OF the Back and Limbs, rams IN tho
Head, Dimness of Sight, Loss of muscular Pow
er, Palpitation of the Heart, Dyspepsia Nervous
Irritability, Derangement of the Digestive Func-
tons General Debility, Syntoms OF Consump-

are a. much m to to be dreaded. Loss of Memory, Con-
fusion of Ideas, Depression of Spirits, Evil Fore
holdings, Aversion to Society, Self Distrust, Love
of Solitude, Timidity, SC, arc some OF the 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, nervous and
emaciated, having singular appearance about
The ewes, cough and symptoms of Consumption.
YOUNG MEN
Who have injured themselves by certain prac-
tice already described, a habit frequently learn
ed from evil companions or at school, tho ELECTS
of which are nightly felt, even when asleep, and
if not cured, renders marriage mpCssiDle, ana
destroys both mind and body, should apply I'M
medately.
What pity that young man, the hope OF
his country. the pride Of his parents, should be
snatched from sll prospects and enjoyment OF
life by the consequence OF devlatlng from tne
path of nature, and indulging in pernlcIous
habits Such persons must, before cOlntomplat-
ing. n,,.cp
Reflect that q sound mind and body arc tho
most necessary requisites to promote connubial
bann;noss Indeed without these the journey
through life becomes weary pilgrimage, the
prospcct hourly darkens to tho view, the mind
becomes shadowed with despair, and filed With
al at
another is blighted with our own.
DISEASES OF IMPRUDENCE.
When the misguided and imprudent votaryo
Measure finds that he has imbibed the seeds
his painful disease it too often happens that an
ill-tlined sense Of shame or dread OF discovery dc
ters him from applying To those VINO, from eau
cation and responsibility, can a aone befrlend HIM
delaying till the constitutional symptoms of this
horrId disease makes their appearance, such rs
liberated sore throat, diseased nose, nocturnal
pains in the head and limbs, dimness of sight,
deafness, nodes on the shin bones and aims,
blotches on the head, face ana e1lrenlles' pro-
crossing with frightful rapidity, till At last tho
naInte Of the mouth or the bones of the nose
fan in, and the victim of this awful disease be-
comes horrid object OF commlsscraton I'LL
death puts period to his dreadful suffering, by
sending him to that undiscovered country from
whence no traveller returns.
Il is 8 melancholy fact that thousands DIE
victims TO this terrible disease through falling
into the hands of ignorant or unskLful PRE-
TENDERS, who by the use of of that deadly
Poison, Mercury, &c, destroy the constitution,
and incapable Of curing &, keep the unhappy suf
m ierer mouth after month taking their no1ious OF
INJURIOUS compounds and instead of being re
stored to renewal Of Life, Vigor and Happiness
in dospair leaves him with ruined Health TO sigh
over his CALLING disappointment.
