Dr. CURTIS has devoted twenty years of his ex-

SEXUAL AND NERVOUS DISEASES
arising from Exhausted Vitality, Abuses OF the
tons, Excess and Others appertaining thereto and
offer. his services to nvalids laboring under such
maladies.
The most continent and pure minded men oc.
casionally find themselves fit subjects for these
distressing Affections. In this manner and for
these causes, we frequently met with men of good
intellect high moral worth and refinement, who
in consequence OF infirmity. suffer much mental
cases demand both MORAL and MEDICAL TREAT.
MENT and should enlist our best efforts. Some
practitioners affect great indifference and even
aversion to inaividuas who are in a suffering con-
ditisn from the disease under consideration. Such
patients, although they may be reaping the re.
wards of their own folly, are nevertheless, the
very who have special need of correct counse;
and are for the most part, in just the flame or
mind to appreciate advice fifty rei dered BY a
judcious mec ical man. in my experience, it has
always appeared strange to me why treatment Of
these diseases should remain abandoned by re-
spectacle members OF the profession to the benefit
of quacks and those vile harpes who prey on this
CT ass of victims.
Medical men too apt to treat the complaints
of such patients lightly, making no effort to allay
their anxiety-a course which often leads them to
apply for aid in llegitmate quarters, and to be-
come the victims of unprncipled men.
The brain is usually the first organ to give indi.
cation of disturbance. Therefore, many years of
experience have taught me the utility of diree ting
nv treatment to a regeneration OF the cerebral
organs
The Medical Times saws: "Dr. Curtis system OF
treatment, the result of twenty years successful
practice differs essentially from all Others in gen
era use and from its simplicity cOmmends itself to
the afflicted as the only true source of relief Many
important cases pronounced incurable have yielded

stated that Mr.. j. j. MaKlnnon, repre-
sentative of London Syndicate.
known al the American Bond Fund
aud Blinking Association, is now ira
Yelling through the South, and engaged

TIE City Council Of Baltimore per-
mitted their generosity to outrun their
discretion few days ago and they
passed resolution appropristing $25,s
900 for the relief OF the sufferers by the
Louisiana flood. Mayor VANsANr
has vetoed the appropriation upon the
ground that the council has no legal
right to thus dicpose OF public iunts'
and his veto has been sustain
ed. There is no law to pro
hibit the citizens OF Baltimore
or OF any other city from contributing
whatever they will for the relief of the
destitute in other localities, and such
literally is in the highest degree COM
mendable, but Mayor VANsANr is en-
tirely correct IN ruling that funds rails
ed by taxation for specific purposes Of
city government should not be diverted
to other ends, even though it be to re.
lieve the destitute in Louisiana or else
where.
