the Liver, Lungs, Stomach, or Bowels,
those terrible disorders arising from Soli-
tary habits OF Youth-those secret and
solitary practices more fatal to their vic
tins than the song of the Syrens to the
mariners OF Ulysses, blighting their most
brilliant hopes or anticipations, render
ing marriage, etc., impossible.
YOUNG MEN ESPECIALLY,
who have become the victims of Solitary
| Vice, that dreadful and destructive habit
which annually sweeps to an untimely
grave thousands Of Young Men Of the
most exalted talents and brilliant intellect
who might otherwise have entranced list
ening Senates with the thunders Of elo-
quence, or walked to ecstacy the living
Tyre, may call with full confidence.
MARRIAGE.
Married persons, or young men contem-
plating marriage aware Of Physical Weak

ORGANIC WEAKNESS,
Impotency, Loss of Power, Immediately

This distressing affection-which rem
ders life miserable and marriage impossi-
ble-is the penalty paid by the victims of
improper indu.gences. Young persons
are too apt to commit excuses from not
being aware of the dreadful consequences
that may ensue. Now, who that under
stands the subject will pretend to deny
that the power of procreation Is lost sooner
by those falling into improper habits than
by the prudent? Besides being deprived
Of the pleasures of healthy offspring, the
most serious and destructive symptoms to
both body and mind arise. The system
becomes deranged, the physical and men,
tai functions weakened, loss of procreative
power, Nervous Irritability, Dyspepsia,

stitutional Debility, a Wasting of the

DIR. JOHNSTON,
| MEMBER OF THE ROYAL COLLEGE OF SrR-
GEoNs, LONDON,
| Colleges I'm the United States, and the
greater part Of whose life has been spent
In the hospitals Of London, Paris, Phna-
delphia and elsewhere, has effected some
Of the most astonishing cures that were
ever known; many troubled with ringing
I'm the head and ears when asleep great
nervousness, being alarmed Mt sudden
sounds, bashfulness, and frequent blush
ing, attended sometimes with derange-
ment Of mind, were cured Immediately.
A CERTAIN DISEASE.
When the misguided and imprudent
votary of pleasure finds that he has i'm
bibed the seeds Of this painful disease. ft
too often happens that an ill-timid sense
of shame or dread Of discovery, deters
him from applying to those who. from ed
ucation and responsibility, can alone be-
friend him. He falls into the hauds OF
ignorant and designing pretenders, who.
incapable of curing,
FILCH HIS PECUNIARY SUBSTANCE
keep him trifling month after month, or
as long as the smallest fee can be obtained,
and in despair leave him with ruined
health to sigh over his CALLING disappont-,
mcnt; or, by the use that deadly poison,
mercury, cause the constitutional symp-
toms Of this horrid disease to make their
appearance, such as liberated sore tAroat,
diseased nose, nocturnal pains In the head
and limbs, diinness Of sight, deafness,
blotches an the head, face and extremities
progressing with frightful rapidly, until
at last the palate OF the mouth, or the
bones OF the nose fall In, and the victim Of
! this awful disease becomes hOrrid object,
till death sends him to that undiscovered
country "from whence no traveller re-
| turns"
TO such, therefore, DIR. Johnston offers
the most speedy, pleasant and efiectual
remedy i'm the world.
TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
d. j. addresses all those who have I'm.
jured themselves by improper indulgence
and solitary habits, which ruin both body
and mind, uniting them for either busi.
ness, study, society, or marriage.

limbs, pains In the head, dimness Of sight
loss Of muscular power, palpitation Of the
heart, dyspepsia, nervous irritability
arrangement Of the digestive functions,
general debility, symptoms Of consump.

MENTALLY.
The fearful effects on the mind are much
TO be dreaded: Loss Of Memory, Confusion
Of Ideas, Depression Of Spirits, Evil Fore
bodings, Aversion TO Society, Self-distrust
Love OF Solitude, Tlmidity, etc., are some
Of the evils produced.
YOUNG MEN
who have injured themselves by certain

frequently learned from evil companions,
or at school the effects Of which are night
ly felt. even when asleep, andif not cured

both mind and body, should apply imme-
diately.
What pity that young man, the hope
of his country, the darling Of his parents,
should be snzt ched from all prospects and
enjoyments Of life. by the Consequence OF
deyiating from the path of nature, and In
duIging in a certain secret habit. Snch
persons must, before contemplating mar

ASoUND MINDAND BODY
are the most necessary requisites to pro-
mote connubial happiness. Indeed, with
out those, the journey through life be-
comes weary pilgrimage; the prospect
hourly darkens to the view; the mind be-
comes Swallowed with despair, and filed
with melancholy rejection that the happi-
