those terrible disorders arising from Solitary Hab

fatal to their victims, than the songs of the Syrens

This distressing affection—which renders life
miserable and marriage Impossible—Ls the penalty
paid by the victims of improper indulgences.-

the subject will pretend to deny, that the power of

deprived of the pleasures of healthy offspring, the

DR. JOILNSTON,
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons, Lon
don. Graduate of one of the most enstnerit Col
leges In the United States, and the greater part of
whose life has been spent in the Hospitals of Lou
don, Paris, Philadelphia and elsewhere, has effect
ed Sonic of the must astonishing cures that were
ever known; many troubled with ringing in the
head and ears when asleep. great nervousness,
being alarmed at sudden sounds, bashfulness, with
derangement of mind, were cured inunedintely.
TAKE PARTICTI,A2 NOTICE.
- -
Dr. J. addresses all those who have Injured
themselves by Improper illthllgellee3 and solitary
habits, which ruin frith body and mind, unfitting
them for either business, study. society or mar.
riage.
These are some of the sad and melancholy
effects produced by the early , habits of youth, viz:
Weakness of the Back and Limbs. Pahl., In the
Head, Pinies:3o( Sight, Loss of Muscular Power,
Palpitation of thelieart, Dyspepsia Nervous liTi•
[ability', Derangement of the Digestive Functions,
General-Debility. Syniptinds of Consumption, &c.
MENTALLY.—The fearful effects of the mind are
pinch to be dreaded. Loss of „Memory, Confusion
of Ideas, Depression of Spirits, Evil Forebodiugit,
Aversion to Society, Self-Distrust. Love of Soli
tude, Timidity, &c., are some of the evils pro
duced.
Thousands of persons of all ages call now Judge
what is the cause of their declining health. losing
their vigor, becoming weak. pale, nervous and
emicated, having a singular appearance about the
eyes, cough and symptoms of Consumption.
YOUNG MEN
who have injured themselves by a certain wag.
Yee, Indulged in when alone, a habit frequently
learned from evil nompanions or at school, the
ellects of which are nightly felt. even when asleep,
and if not cured. renders marriage Impossible,
and destroys both mind and body, should apply
immediately.
What a pity that a young man, the. hope of his
country, the pride of his parents, should be
snatched from all prospects and employments of
life, by the consequence of deviating from the path
of nature, and listtunymon a certain sec et habit.
Such persons must, before conteuiplatin
reflect that a sound mind and body are he most
necessary requisites to promote connubial happi
ness. Indeed. without these, the journey through
Me becomes a weary pilgrilllagt2, the prospect
hourly darkens to the lie%%. the mind becomes
shadowed to despair. and Idled with the melan
choly reflection that the Impillic,s lof another is
blighted with our ow u.
.DISEASE OF 1311TUDENCE
- -
When the misguided and imprudent votary of
pleasure finds that he has Imbibed the seeds of
this painful disease. It too often happots that an
ill-timed sense of shame ur dread of discovey tie
ters him from applying to those who, from educa
tion and respectability can alone befriend hint,
delaying till the osinstiintional symptoms of this
horrid disease maises their appearance, such as
ulcerated sore throat, diseased nose, nocturnal
pains In the head and limbs, dimness of sight,
deafness, nodes on the shin bones and arms,
blotches on the head, face and extremities, pry
greSsing With frightful rapidity, till at last the pal
ate of the mouth Or the bones of the nose fall In,
and the victim of this awful disease becomes a
horrid object of commiseration till death puts a
period to his dredful SUfTerings, h sending him
to that undiscov a ered country, from " whence no
traveler returns."
It is a melancholy fact, that thousands DIE vic
tims to this terrible disease, through failing into
the hands of Jgnorant or Unskillful PHETE.ND
EW, who by the use of that deadly Poison, Mer
cury, Ste.. destroy the constitution, and incapable
of curing. keep the unhappy sulli.rer month after
month taking their noxious or injurious com
pounds, and instead of being restored to a renew
al of Life, Vigor and happiness, In despair leave
him with ruined Health, to sign osier his galling
disappointment.
To such, therefore, Dr JOHNSTON pledges him
self to preserve the most Inviolable Secrecy, and
from his extensive practice and observations in
the great Hospitals of Europe, and the first In
this country, viz: England, France, Philadelphia
and ellewher ,r 1 isenabled tooffer must speedY,
Certain and Effectual Remedy In the World for all
diseases of Imprudence.

FOR ALL THE PUPOS'.F+S OF A
LAXATIVE MEDICINE.
Perhaps no one medicine is so universally re
quired by everybody as a cathartic, or was ex
any before so universally adopted into use, !A
every country and among an classes, as this mild
but efficient purgative Pill. The obvious reason
bi, that it is more reliable and far more effectual
remedy than any other. Those who have tried it,
know that it cured them ; those who have not,
know that It cures their neighbors and friends,

A MOTHER out West recently - addressed
her daughter thus: "My daughter, you
are now fifteen years of age, engaged to
be married, and without a freckle on your
face. I have done my duty."
"I NEVER i.-hot a bird in my life," said
a gentleman to another, who replied; "I
never shot .anything in the shape of a bird
but a squirrel, whichl killed with a stone,
and it fell into the river and was drowned."
"Jogs," asked a physican of the apothe
cary't apprentice. "did Mrs. Green get
the medicine I ordered?"
"I guess so," replied John, "for I saw
a crepe hanging on the door-knob this

"Foy say," ;;aid a judge to a witness,
"that the plaintiff resorted to an inge
nious use of circumstantial evidence; state
just exactly what you mean by that.''
"Well," said the witness, "My exact
meaning is that he lied."
THE following epitaph may be seen otr

Maine:
"I lost my life on the raging seas ;
A sovereign God does as he plwase—
The Kittery friends they did appear,
And My remains they buried here."
"Bur, father, you know love . makes

SMITH'S NEW CLERK
Jenkini met Smith, his senior partner
at the depot, who had iwen ab , ent on
business tour.
"Tlow's business?" inquired the latte
"All right. Got a new clerk."
"Got a new• clerk: eh ? Where's Jones?
"Discharged him. An idle, extravagant,
imprudent young dog!"
^True enough; and the new oue won't
be any better. Drinking, gambling, late
hour*, and fast horses—that's the way
with 'em all."
Smith groatied.
Jenkins! eyes twinkled. He well knew
the peculiarities of his good-hearted, but
eccentric bachelor partner.
"Well, the new clerk don't drink ruif
gamble, rin certain of that; and has thus
far been very industrious and attentive."
"Thus far? Oh yes. Wait a nnmth.
New brooms sweep clean. -
"Oh, well, if the new clerk don't suit
you, you can send the new clerk adrift,
that's all. I only took lier—ahem;—the
new clerk on trial.''
Mr. Smith stared at his partner.
"I truppoSe the new elerk'sgot a name?"
he remarked dryly.
"Oh, yes. Ifer—that is to say, the new
clerk's name is Gardner. But here we
are."
As was his usual custom, Mr. Smith
went through the store, passed the array
of clerks on either side of the counter,
without glancing to the right or left. But
when he reached his private office, at' the
further end, he looked through the glass
door, that was so situated that he could
see all that was going on in the store.
As his eyes fell on the occupant' of a
desk near the door, he started.
"What's that ?" he said, turning sharp
ly upon his partner who had followed him.
Jenkins gazed very composedly upon the
slender form, whose graceful head was
bent intently over a ledger that lay open
upon the desk before her.
"That ? Why that's the new clerk."
Smith rubbed his eyes and looked again
"Why, it's a woman;;' he exclaimed,
with au air of credulity and horror.
I should say it was," said 'Jenkins,
000ly; "and a confounded pretty one at
that."
Smith gave his partAer a look of virtu
ous indignation. •
"Mr. Jenkins, this is no place for a
*Oman!"
"Think not ? Now it strikes me she
tits the place very neatly."
, "The proper place for a woman is hi the
sonctuary of home!"
This was a pet observation of Mr.
Smith's which be had read somewhere an
which he considered as a clincher in any
such argument.
"But suppose she hasn't any?"
This was a poser; and, in his efforts lo
iarmountit Mr. Smith got excited.
"Hasn't any ? Why, sir she must, she
ought to have one!"
'Very true. In fact, so confident am I
on that point, that I have some thoughts
of offering her mine—or, at least, tp share
it with her."
"Mr. Jenkins, this is lint a fit subject
for jest!"
"It's a serious matter, I know; so on
the whole, perhaps, I'd better think it
crier a while longer. Besides, there's no
knowing if she would except my offer, to
gether with the encumbrance that goes
With it."
((Jenkins," returned Smith severely,

With this parting shot he disappeared.
Now Smith had a nervous horror of
women, as his partner well knew—especi
ally of young women—and never spoke to
one if he could help it.
Had it been a man, he would know
what to say, and experience no difficulty
in saying , it, but a woman was another
thing.
But his partner's last words hadtottched
his pride, and summoning all his resolu
don he opened the door and walked out.
But his courage failed him, as he came
opposite the desk where she sat, and he
passed by.' glancing sideways at the un
conscious occupant, who did not lift her
head at his approach.
After speaking to the Clerk at the fur
ther end of the room, lie walked slowly
back to where the young lady sat, and
who, as he paused by the desk, raised a
pair of soft blue eyes, shooting a swift,
bewildering glance inSmith's that he felt
to the toes of his boots.
"Mks—Miss"—he stammered
"My name Georgians," said the
young lady, Smiling. "Some call me
George, for sh6rt.''
"Well, Miss George—Georgiana. rin
afraid that you find your situation rather
unpleasant."
"Not :it all, sir. On the eontrary, I find
it very plc•aeant and comfortable."
"Ahem'--but I fear that you will be
hardly equal to the discharge of its
luties."
Lope nut. If yin will run your eye
,ver this balance sheet, yotiwill find eve-
rything. correct."
With the desperate hope that there
would he someting amiss, Smith did so,
but was disappointed.
"I hope you haye no fault to find ?"said
the new clerk. a little anxiously, , on per-
CIA ing that he hesitated.
- You are a woman"—
! Here. whether abashed by the sudden
display of dimples in the pink cheeks, that
grew still more pink at this unnecess
assertion, Smith came to an abrupt pause:
At this, the smiling face settled into
an expression of demure gravity.
`•I must plead guilty to the charge of
being a woman. But though it may be a
misfortune, it can scarcely be called a
fault: at any lute, it is one for which I am
not answerable."
••You misunderstand me, ma'am. What
I meant to say was, that 'there are cer
tain duties connected with your office,
such as opening the store, going to the
post-office, which you cannot very well
perform."
I agsure you, sir, that I shall like noth
ing better than an occasional walk in the
open air. And as to the opening the door,
;weeping and dusting, I don't know why
it should be harder to perform that office
for a store than for a house."
••I claim no consideration for my sex,"
resumed the young lady, casting a slightly
reproachful glance at the perplexed coun
tenance of her employer, "hut I ask, in
common justice, if I perform my duties
satisfactorily, that you will not ,discharge
ow simply becausa I am a tcomau!"
Muttering a disclaimer of some kind., he
hardly knew what, Smith beat a sudden
retreat to his own room, assuming a bold
/And as he met his partner's inquiring
but with anin ward consciousness that he
had been totally routed by the enemy.
"Going?" said Jenkins, with provoking
nouele+ lance.
"Well no, not to-day. What the tl-1
are you grinning at?"
"Oh, nothing—nothing at all," respond
ed Jenkins, throwing himself back in his
chair and regarlling intently a fly upon
Le ceiling.
"What I was going to remark was," re
sumed Smith, with quite an unnecessary
assumption of dignity, "that I have con
cluded to let the yOung lady remain until
—until I can find some situation for her
more iu accordance with her sex.
"Very kind and considerate of you,"
said Jenkins, dryly; especially, taking
into view that she does-her work better
than any clerk we ever had, and for less
pay, too."
Smith was by no means the ogre he
seemed. Aside from his prejudice he was
a sensible kind-hearted pn. Georgiana
was not called upon to open. the store or
run errands though she offered to do both.
Curious to relate, as days and weeks
passed, Smith's repugnance to her pres
ence not only vanished with them, but he
began to regard it with positive pleasure.
He used oftewto look through the glass
door watching the graceful poise of the
head and the motionsef the deft little lin
gers as they glided over the paper. Until
at last curious fancies seemed to creep
through his bran), and he began to indulge
in glowing dreams of how wonderfully
such a little woman as that would bright
en up his lonely and cheerless home.
But he determined to proceed cautiously.
Lie bad it. His housekeeper was about to
leave, he would offer Miss Gardner the
situation—and then? -
Having formed this resolution lds next
step was to request the young lady's pres
ence in his private office, a summons that
was promptly obeyed. •
"Miss Gardner, don't you think the
Situation of housekeeper in a quiet home
like mine for instance, would be prefera
ble to your situation here?"
"Perhaps, iu some respects, it might,"
said Georgiana, coloring st the abrupt in.
gully, and the look that accompanied it.
Was the old gentleman about to make
her au offer
But his words relieved her of her appre
hension:
"fly housekeepers soon to lehve me,
and I should be very happy to have you
supply her place."
- Georgians's cheeks grew very red, and
her mouth dimpled the smiles that she
strove vainly to suppress, •
( IYou are- very kind, sir, but the fitet is

"Mr. Jenkins?" •
"Tea sir. asked me Who his house

MRS. BLOBBN AT LOBO BRANCH
In the middle of the season the Rev
Mr. Blobbs, who is theologically "sound,"
sent his wife, who is physiologically nn
sound, and their son Billy to Long Branch.
Billy, who is a precocious child, and
whose father had cautioned him 'not to
forget to write to him, penned a letter a
few days after, aud: unread by his mother,
sent it. The same mail carried to Mr.
Blobbs a letter from his wife. We print
both letters - below. The first, Billy's,
read thus:
DEAR DADDY: It's awful nice here in
the country, and me and ma are having
such jolly times. I think - the nicest place
in the world is a watering place, don't
you, daddy? °At first it felt awful lone
some without you, and says I to dear ma,
"when is pa coming up from the city
ma:"'
"Never, rhope, Billy," said she, "your
father's such a dry old stick, and we are
much better without him."
U daddy! you would'nt know ma now,
if you had seen her before, she is looking
so well and young. She has taken to wear
such lots of hair and fine things; and our
maid, Sally, says she dosen't look any
older than many a gal of 17. Ma's got a
real splendid beau, too, with mustaches
snd whiskers! Ma calls him Charlie. I
call him a brick, because he gives me heaps
of candy. Sally says he's the nicest gen
tleman she ever saw. ,
The waiters here aretnlly bogs, an
get no end of stale tarts, pigs and pound
cake, besides bottled ale and tobacco.
They are teaching me to play euchre, too,
and I think it's a real nice game. Ma has
no time to look after me; she's so taken
up with dressing, dancing and dear Mr.
Charlie.
O pa: I want to see you awful bad; but
don't come yet—it would make ma so
hopping mad. Please write soon, and
don't forget to send me plenty of pocket
money. A fellow can't do without "tin"
here. Your affectionate son BILLY.
Mrs. Mons wrote as follows, the only
point of contrast being that it gives a dif
ferent view of the matter.
MY DEAR lICSRA.NR:-My health is a
little better, thank the Lord, and I begin
to enjoy the Sabbath-like peace of this
splendid place. I miss you very much,
and my thoughts are often with you, but
fur the sake of our dear flock, I will not
ask you to join me at present. Dear lit
tle Billy and the bible are my usual com
panions, though when I seek it I find a
good deal of religious society here. Are
you lonely without me, dear husband? I
hope not, for the fresh, invigorating air
here is doing me more good than medi
cine, and if I could remain until Septem
ber, I believe I might be restored to my
former health.
Give my fondest love to the dear sisters
of our church, and tell them I remember
them iu my prayers. I read your soul
stirring sermon in Monday's Tnguirer. It
filled my heart with great peace and com
fort. With love and many kisses L bid
you adieu. Will you write again. Billy
sends you a note, which you will • receive
with this. Your loving wife.
Hr. Blobbs, in a state more easily im
agined than described, left for Long
Branch immediately after reading the
above epistle. How Mrs. received her in
diont lord and master, we don't know,
but he brought her back to Gotham.
Last Sunday she sat in her old pew at
church, looking very sorrowful. The pas
tor, Mr. Blobbs, preached a very eloquent
sermon, taking few his text the following:
"Who can find a virtuous woman ? for her
price is far above rubies."
A DILI doxr..—ln a shady Schuylkill
cove some half dozen young gentlemen
bathers were disporting thenarielves in the
cooling river waters, having left their
clothes upon the shore. qr
While they were at their height of their
enjoyment, two young ladies each
with a book in their hand, came down a
steep, narrow path, and seated themselves
on a moss-covered rock, undera spreading
tree, opened their books and began to
read. The young men swam around
projecting point of the rock and waited
for the damsels to go away, but they con
tinued to read on and on, turning slowly
leaf after leaf, so interesting were the sen.
sation novels they were perusing. And
all the while they were closely watched by
the now shivering and impatient bathers.
For nearly twq hems the two yiking la
dies stirred not; but, as the sinking sun
began to throw long shadows over the
leaden watrs, they arose, and arm in arm
they began to move an, when suddenly
one of them paused, threw off her big
straw hat, unlaced, unbuttoned,:drapped
her frock, and called aut.
"Cgruc ashore boys! Put on your
clothes. We've got through reading."
They were not young ladies at all, but
two wild, mischevious wags, fond of fun
and practical jokes of the most unscrupu
lous kind, who had come out to play a cruel
trick on their unsuspecting companions,

TIIE HULLS BODY.—A number of C intlN
cases of the progress of Musket-balls item
the place where they first lodged 1 ial a he en
observed - by military surgeons. We have
' heard of a very remarkable case where the
musket-ball struck the forehead stliiive die
nose, and having divided into two halves,
one half went round beneath the skin on
the right side, and the other on the left,
advancing in contact with the skull. We
do not ask our readers to believe the poet
ical edition of this fact, that the two,l,lf
bullets met again behind, and having per
formed the circuit of the head in opposite
directions, and, advancing with a slightly
diminished force, united and killed an un-
fortunate man who stood in their way; but
the fact of the splitting of the ballet, is
unquestionable. The singular progress
of a musket-ball from the forehead to the
thront has been recorded by Dr. Fielding.
At the first battle of Newbury, in the
time of the civil wars, a medical gentle
man was shot near the right eye. The
skuP was fractured at the place; but
though the surgeon could see the pulsa
tion of the brain beneath the wound, yet
the bullet had turned to ono side and could
not be discovered. Various bones were
diticharged from the wound, the mouth,
and the nostrils. At the time of the sea T
ond battle of Newbury the wound healed
and could not be kept open; but about
twelve years afterwards, when the doctor
was riding in a cold, dark night, he felt a
pain on the left side of his head, about
the "almonds of the ear," which occasion
ed a partial deafness. Having stopped
his ear with wool he - was surprised one
day in March, UM, by a sudden puff or
crack in his par, when all that side of his
cheek hung loose as if it had been paralyt
ic, and a hard knot was felt under the ear.
Various turners now appeared about the
throat, and in August, ifin, the bulb.t
was taken out of the throit near the 7 ,,, -

violet which hidnl ita blushing beauties
behind the bush; and the moon when she

sonrces of inspiration. Modesty is to

—it gives it boldness and prominence.—
Nothing adds more to female beauty than
modesty; it sheds around the eountenanee
a halo of light, which is borrowed from
virtue. Botanists have given the rosy hue
which tinges the cup of the white rose
the name of "maiden blush." This pure
and delicate hue is the only paint Chris.

ornament. A woman without modesty is
like a faded flower diffusing an unwhole
some odor, which the prudent gtudner
will throw from him. Her destiny Is mob

repe . ntance. Beady-passed like the flow
ers of the which bloom and die in a

charms which supply the place of the
transitory freshness of youth.

Brave, trusting little fellow! He did not
grow restless or impatient under the bur

his father knew his strength or rather the
weakness of that little arm, and would
not over-task it. More than • all, his
father loved him, and therifore would not

trust in Him, that God desires all his
