ADDRESS OF
THE STATE CENTRAL COMMITTEE.
To,the People of Pennsylvania
Fellow Citizens— The Central Committee
appointed by the Democratic Convention, which
assembled at Reading, on the 4th of June last, have
resolved to address you on some of the questions
which are to be decided at the next general election.
We approach the perfor/nance'of this duty with
we trust, a proper sense of the responsibility it im
poses upon us, and with a fulldetermination, ne’ithci s
to exaggerate the importance of the issues now
pending before you, nor to use any argument*
which are in the least unfair.
The effect which our election in this State m y
have on the Union of the States, and on the grea
interests of the whole country, will claim our at
tention, first—because this is a consideration which
transcends' all others in magnitude. We solemnh
believe that the re election of Governor JOHNSTON
would be fraught with danger to the peace of the
country, arid wiih consequent ruin to our commerce,
foreign and domestic; while we are equally wel
assured that the election of Col. BIGLER would be
everywhere hailed, by all true patriots, as a prool
that our good old Slate, ever loyal to the Constitu
tion, is still as true as steel to the great principles*
lor which our fathers shed heir blood.
The ConstiJMtion of'the United States is a most
ingenious piece of workmanship. The wisdom
displayed in the organic structure ol our whoh
system, is only equalled by the patriotism which
induced all the States, severally, to give up whar
was necessary lor the general good. One great
principle pervades the whole instrument; and that
is, that each State, within her owxi;sphere| is abso
lutely sovereign, and free to do precisely as she
pleases in regard to her own internal concerns
Any interference ol the people of one State with
the domestic affairs of another, is not only uncon
stitutional and uulawiul, but it is sure to be bitterly
resented as indecent. Pennsylvania shares as
largely in this spirit as her sisters; and would.re
buke intermeddlers in her business as sternly as any
of them. This condition of things makes.it abso*
lutely necessary that the States should abstain from
all impertinent interference with one another; or
else the harmony which is necessary'to the perpe
tuity of the Union, will be broken up and destroyed.
When kindess of leeling, and confidence in one an
other have once disappeared, the a Union will not last
very long—for it cannot possibly be held together
by force or fear. The Czar ol Russia may tarn**
his Puianders with the knout—the Emperor ot
Austria may reduce Hungary to submission by
murdering men anil scourging women—and the
British Government may keep Ireland in subjection
by starvation and the bayonet—but if the States O;
this Union cannot remain untied, without such ap
pliances, they will inevitably separate. We are
u ruled by moral ties—not held in reluctant con
nection by means ot physical power. Our-feelings
of fraternal kindness—our reciprocal justice and
regard for one another's rights—our veneration for
the name of our common lather, the great Wash
ington—our recollection of the revolutionary blood
that was mingled together in the same fields by the
men of all sections—our love of liberty—our pride
of empire—the boundless commercial prosperity
which tne Unioirwill give us. and the shuddering
consciousness that an unspeakable ruin awaits us ii
that Union is 'broken up—these are the bonds ol
our common.brotherhood, and when These are once
severed, the Union will cease to exist, as surely as
the. planetary system would tall into confusion it
the law of attraction were annihilated. To pre
serve them in all their force is the most sacred duty
we owe to ourselves, to our countrymen, and to our
children.
Negro slavery does not exi«t in the northern
States, while in the southern States the people Have
not determined to abousli it. This difference in
our domestic institutions has to dicus
sions which, at different times, have threatened us
with serious danger. The people of Pennsylvania
have ne\er lent a favorable ear to the abolition ag
itators. We are thankful that we have nothing to
do with slavery, and that Providence has thrown ihe
whole responsibility of dealing with that difficult
and dangerous subject upon the States where it
exists. We cannot intermeddle in it without yio
latingMhe Constitution, and, it e could, we would
not. The north has the numerical force which en :
«les her, at all .times, to control every branch of
e United States Government, Executive and Le
gislative. We ought, therelore, to Oehave with the
magnanimity which becomes the stronger party.—
It nothing else would prevent us Irom taking an
’unworthy advantage of our strengih, a proper sense
oi sell-respect and dignity should restrain us. The
south is powerless for any purpose of aggression
upon us, and has no protection hut the Constitution,
. unless she resorts to a revolu'ionary remedy.
Nevertheless, there have been men among us,
who not regarding their constitutional duty, but
taking counsel of their evil passions have lent all
their energies to the kindling of excitement against
the south. Coarse vituperation against all southern
men, and abusive epithets, harshly dealt upon all
northern men, who ventured to put in a plea for
their constitutional rights, was the fashion of these
politicians. The southern people, in consequence
of these incessant and bitter assaults, were in a
•state of high excitement at the termination ol the
war with Mexico. A vast territory had been con
quered, at the expense of southern, as well as.
northern, blood and treasure. The contest which
then came on in Congress, was long, angry and
. doubtful. The boldest men feared, and the wisest
could not foresee what might happen. But
promise was at length effected. This compromise
consisted of five distinct measures; all of'which.
except one, gave the advantage to the opponents
of slavery and the south. Let us enumerate Them
1. California was admitted into the Union with
a Constitution prohibiting slavery, notwithstanding
all complaints of irregularity and unjustifiable ex
tension of her boundaries.
2. Utah and New Mexico were organized into
•territories, without any change in the existing law,
which forbade slavery.
3. Congress agreed to purchase from Texas a
"f*large part of her territory, for the consideration ol
ten millions of dollars, and thus removed the ter
ritory, so purchased, Irom the jurisdiction of a slave
State.
4. A law was passed abolishing the slave trade
in the District of Columbia. .
5-. The fugitive slave law was passed.
None of these laws, except the last one, was of
any advantage to thfe South, or calculated to do the
•i. South any service. The lugitive slave law they ask
ed for in return, and it was granted to them, solely
' because they were entitled to it by the express words o/
the Constitution. To prevent any mistake, we will
transcribe from that sacied instrument the section
which relates to tbiS subject.
1 . 11 No person held to labor or service in one State under
the laws thereof escaping into another , shall in conse
guente of any law or ' regulation therein be discharged
, ; ' from such service or labor , but shall be delivered.
£ up on claim of the party to whom such service or laboi
f mayMdue.'*
Surely no part of the Constitution is more ..plainly
written than this, nor no duty more clearly defined
or more easily understood, than that which it im
* poses. When it is'.recollected that a law for the
- execution ot this provision was all we gave the
South, it seems like an insult to the people todoubi
that they will standi by the bargain in all honesty
‘ and good faith.
In order to understand fully the importance of
this issue, it must'be remembered that in roost oi
the southern States the old party lines have been
nearly altogether obliterated, and the people huv.
divided into the Union and secession parties. The
Union* men assert their confidence in,the justice am'
honor of the north, arid thriir ‘ belief 'that we wil
-land by the Compromise'and permit the Constitu*
ion to be executed. The.secessionists. on the othe>
land, base their opposition to the Union on the siip
■used, treachery of the north, and declare then
ipinion, that the fugitive slave law will be sr.
opposed, aad its repeal or modification so loudly
lemanced, that they cannot hope for quiet, or peace,
r justice, according to the measure of the Consti
'ution. The union party is now in the majority it*
11 the States except South Carolina; but their en
mies and the enemies of the Union,* will overwhelm
hem with defeat, if we demonstrate to them, tha l
tur loyalty to the Constitution, arid our submission
to the terms of the compromise, cannot be relied
>n. No wonder that all friends of the Union,
whether Whigs or Democrats, are waiting for our
lection with beating - hearts and breath suspended 1
•hall we give the triumph to our enemies—to those
who charged us with treachery—to those who as
•ert that we carried the compromise, by lalse pre
♦'rices, and that we are not to be trusted to execute
he Constitution? Or shall we so decide as to su?*-
*din our friends who have defended our character
md staked their success upon our fidelity to the
compromise? ,
The Democracy of Pennsylvania, loyal and true
o.the Constitution, have taken their ground in the
ollowing resolutions:
Resolved, That the time has arrived, when not
•nly the prosperity of our people, but the preser
vation of our blessed Union, require that the Dem
icratic party, in all its measures, snail strictly and
aithtully adhere to the fundamental principle?-
•siablished by its-wise, patriotic and glorious foun
ers; and among ihe most important of these prin
ciple's, we may enumerate a,strict construction ot
he Constitution of the United States—a total ab
stinence on the part of Congress, from the exefeise
•f all doubtful powers—a sacred regard for the
ights reserved by the sovereign States ,of which
.he confederacy is composed—an, absolute non
interference by the people of the several States,
vith the domestic institutions peculiar to each—
aid a rigid economy in the expenditure of the taxes
raised'from the people—confining the appropria
tions of public money by Congress-to national
Objects, plainly authorized by the Constitution.
Resolved, That had these vital principles of
Democracy been faithfully obse p ved in the admin
stration of the National Government since the
idvent of the Whigs to power on the 4th March.
1549, we should not now witness the spirit of dis
cord and alienation which at*present prtvails be
tween the North and South,on the question of domes,
tic slavery—threatening as it does eventually to dis
solve the Union. Nor should we have to deplore
the enormous appropriations of public money, ap
proaching in a time of peace to the war standard
•>f expenditure arid endangering an entail upon our
posterity of the frital incubus of a permanent na-
tional debt. 1
Resolved, That the Democratic party of Penn
sylvania are true to the Union, the Constitution and
he laws, and will faithfully observe and execute,
■.o far as in them lies, all the measures of compro
mise adopted by the late Congress, for the purpose
of settling the question arising out of domestic
slavery, and this not onfy from a sense of duty as
good citizens of the republic, but also from the kind
anil fraternal feelings which they cherish towards
heir brethren of the slaveholding States.
Resolved, That the sixth section of the act of
ihe Legislature of Pennsylvania, passed on the 3d
ot March, 1847, denying under severe penalty, the
use of our State jails for the detention of fugitive
da\‘es, while awaiting their trial, ought to be-ex
punged Horn our statute books, both because it in
erposes obstacles by means of Stale legislation, to
me execution of the provision ol the Constitution
>f- the United States, and because it is a virtual
lisregard of the principles of the compromise, and
is calculated seriously to endanger the existence of
the Union.
Resolved, That in Col. William Bigler, our
candidate for Governor, we recognize a long-tried,
.able and faithful Democrat, in whom there is no
guile, and a man, who by his own pre-eminent
.merit, has risen to the exalted position which he
mow Holds in the affection and respecj of his fellow
citizens We hail him as the worthv repreaenta-
ive and chosen standard-bearer ol our great and
glorious principles, and pledge ourselves to do.battle
for the cause of Democracy under his banner, until
we shall achieve a signal victory and redeem the
Keystone State from the misrule of its present
Wliig Governor.
Resolved, That we will cordially support the
election of Seth. Clover, as Canal Commissioner,
believing him to be an able, hone-t and incorrupt
ible Democrat, and well qualified to discharge the
duties of that responsible office.
Resolved That in the matter of levying duties
on foreign imports by the General Government, we
are in lavor ol the reciprocal interchange of our
products with the other nations ol the earth, in
consonance with the enlightened spirit of the age,
tecosjnizmg clearly the practice of the Government
io maintain and preserve in full vigor and safety,
all the great and industrial pursuits of the country
These resolutions form the two solid columns
on which the Democracy of the State and nation
rest so lar as this question is concerned. .Let them
be prostrated, and the Unionj itself will crumble
to pieces. Col. Bigler has given sanction to the
sentiments they embody in the most unequivocal
tnd emphatic j
On the other hand thtjWhig Convention, which
met at Lancaster, refused to pledge them their par
ty to an unconditional support of the fugitive slave
law. A resolution was offered to that effect, but it.
was voted down by a large majority.
They nominated a candidate for Governor who
was, and is, openly to it. Gov. Johnston,'
In his message ot January! 1851, took strong
ground against it. In his speecji before the Lancaster
Convention he declared that ij be had been a mem
ber of Congress he would have voted against it.—
He went still further, and expressed the opinion
that it ought to be so changed.as to make it “more
consonant to the wishes of thfe people, more accept
able to them, and more conformable to truth, justice
and the requirements of the Constitution.” These
are the strong words-in which he has chosen to
assert that the law is false , unjust and unconstitu
tional—for that is the substance of his denunciation
of it. We do not pretend tojknow what he means
by the allegation that it is not “ conformable to
truth .” That Washington approved a law in 1793
identical with this in principle is some authority in
favor of itsy'Msfice, and.the solemn decision ot every
judicial tribunal where the question has been raised,
ought to settle its constitutionality. But Mr. John
ston is opposed to it, and, lorjhis opposition, he bas
thought proper to give absurd reasons rather than
none. •{ .
When-we speak of Gov. Johnstony opposition
to this law, we are not to be understood as saying
that he has ever avowed his determination to-op
pose it by force, or resist its [execution with buck
shot and ball as one of his predecessors opposed and
resisted th£ election law, but we do assert that he
is opposed to the law a 6 it stands, and in favor of
agitating for i s repeal, and thus def ating the great
purpose for which it as welljas the other compro
mise measures were enacted, namely, a final and
peaceful settlement of the perplexing and dangerous
subjects to which they relate.
But this is not the only evidence Gov. Johnston
has given of his disloyalry to the Constitution. A
law was passed by the Legislature of Pennsylvania
m the year 1- 47, one section oi which forbids, un
der the seven 3t penalties, the use of the jails for
the confinerm nt 'of a runaway sfhve: At the time
of the passagi of this act there was no law in ex
igence authorizing agents or commissioners of the.
United State* to commit fugitives irom labor to
prison. It was therefore, al.most a dead letter on
the statute/book. Bur.' wh|en the “fugitive slave
law’’ of September, 1850, was passed, it was found
•dmost impossible to execute its provisions unless
fhis’part/of the Pennsylvania statute should be re
pealed /Accordingly, the Iriends of the Union,con.
istmg pf YVhigs and Democrats, proposed* its re
peal in the last session of the Legislature.—
I he ufmost influenee of'Governor Johnston’s spe
cial adherents was exerted to prevent the passage
-l this repealing bill, and they succeeded in staving
it off until very nearly the close ol the session.—
Then, however, it was passed, and presented to him
ior ; his approval. He refused, to sign it on the pre
set that he had not sufficient time for refection! He
nas not sighed it yet,, nor has be given his friends
/»y reason to hope that jhe will sign it but
/• n the contrary, the abolitionists confidently ex
>ect him to veto it, ancThe as confidently expects
their votes in consideration! thereof.
“THAT COUNTRY IS THE MOST PROSPEROUS, WHE P B LABOR COMMANDS THE GREATEST BEWABD.”—Buchanan.
CITY OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY MORNING, AUGUST 19, 1851.
• In such ways as these has Governor -Johnston
'•ommitted himself irrevocably to the- purposes of
hose heartless agitators who have already driven
us to the verge of destruction, and who, if they are
now backed by a majority in Pennsylvania, will
>lunge us into utter ruin and anarchy.
The Governor has attempted to justify the ex
periments he proposes to make on the temper ol
*he people, by declaring the Union is in no kind ol
tanger.- He ridicules, scouts, and 6neers at the
idea that the Union can possibly be dissolved by
my cause whatever.' He thinks it strong enough
o stand anything. In this- confidence be is very
singular. The greatest, best, and wisest men in
♦he country, of all parties, have thought and do now
hink, that unto justice and moderation prevail in
our councils, we,£re in danger. It can scarcely be
relieved that Washington would have warned his
countrymen against dissolution if dissolution had
been an impossible thing. Jackson was not apt to
be frightened by shadows, and it is well known
hat anxiety for the Union lay heavy on his heart
for many years of his lile. Still Mr. Johnston is,
without doubt, very sincere. It would be unchari
table to believe that he would advocate the doc
trines he.does advocate, for the mere sake of a few
iboliiion votes, if he could,see the effect df them
as others see it. *
We are no alarmists. We, too, believe tbjit the
Union will not he a’-solved. But we base that
opinion on our firm conation that Gov Johnston
will be defeated by a large .majority But, if we
could believe that Gov. Johnston, with such opin
ions as be has expressed, and such measures as he
is pledged to, could possibly be elected,'Our confi
dence in the salety of the Union would be very
much diminished. We have already said that pub
lie opinion in the south is divided between adher
ence to the Union and secession from it. The Union
men are our.friends, the friends of the north, the
friends of the whole country. They vindicate u<
when our fame is assailed by our foes, and boldly
risk all their political hopes on our good faith
Never has any set of men made a braver or more
successful struggle, than the friends of the Union
and the compromise have made in all the southern
States except South Carolina. But these friends of
ours adhere to the cause on one express condition,
and that is that the fugitive slave law shall remain
on our statute book as it is, and be faithfully execu-*
ted in the north. We venture to affirm that there
has never been a State Convention, county meet
ing, or any other assemblage of the Union party ot
the south, in which their adherence to the compro
mise and their continuance in the Union have not
been coupled with this condition Let Pennsylva
nia throw' all her vast moral and political influence
into the scale of the secessionists, by re-electing a
Governor who is opposed to the fugitive slave law',
and refuses to allow the repeal of a State law which
obstructs its execution, and what will be the effect ?
It will flush our enemies with a triumph which
nothing else could give them, and it will bring
bitter disappointment, humiliation, grief, and over
throw to the friends w r ho have long and gallantly
tough' for us and for the Union. Would to God
the Union were not in danger! But, if Gov. John
storis re-election would not put it in very great
danger, then are the mos* solemn declarations of
all parties in the south but as sounding brass and
a tinkling cymbal, and the recorded opinions of the
wisest statesmen in all sections and of all political
creeds mere idle fancies.
Remenflber, fellow citizens, that Col. Bigler’s
election will hold up the hands and strengthen the
arms Union men. Remember also that Gov.
Johnston's success will verify the charges which
the secessionists make against us, and probably
give them the ascendency in every State where the
issue has been made. Supposing the latter event
to occur, and a dosen States *o join Snu’h Carolina,
how is the Union to be preser/ed ? We leave your
imaginations to fill out the picture. But surely no
man w*bo has sense enough to know his right hand
from his left, can fail to see that in that case there
would begin such trouble as never seen
yet. Whether it would end in civil wMr or in
peaceful dissolution, we pretend not to conjecture.
The best hopes of every patriot would be crushed,
and the prosperity of this great country would be
gone in either case.
We have thus feebly attempted to do our duty
by faithfully warning you of the evils which the
re election of the present Governor may bring upon
you. The pleasant task remains, however, to be
performed of assuring you that the accounts we
have received from all quarters, leave us in no
doubt that Col. Bigler and the whole Democratic
Mate Ticket will be triumphant by an immense
majority.
This address having been already extended to
a greater length than we had designed, we; are com
pelled to leave the other important questions invol
ved in this campaign for future communications.

A young lady of wealthy parentage, a fledgling
from one of our fashionable boarding schools, a

the silken tie of matrimony to a gem of a beau.—

they were ‘fixed 5 in a mansion on Walnut street, on

A few days after this, a school companion of our

so many servants about the house. «•
‘Why, Mary,’ said she, ‘what in the name of
sense, have you so many people about you for? 5
‘Oh!'replied Madam, ‘Haven’t any more than
we want. There is but one cook, one chamber
maid, two house girls, one housekeeper, and—a—
child's nurse. I’m sure they are not too many V
‘Ha! ha!’said her friend, ‘what do you want
with a child's nurse! Oh! that is too funny.
‘ Well, haven’t any immediate use for her, but

would want one, and you know ‘it's not always

Extracts from opinions of the Press.. \
Sacred Scenes and Characters * —By; the Rev. J.T.
Headley. This work may very properly be consid
ered a companion to the “ Sacred Mountains,’*i by
the same author. It iB to illustrate and “render
more life-likethe sacred writings. It is not Uie
authors design to supersede ithe Bible. But [his
wish is to excite a solicitude to obtain, and to be
come intimately acquainted and perfectly familiar
with its history dotrine* and laws,Mo know its truth,
to imbibe its spirit, feel its power, aDd partake of its
salvation; in a word, to prize.in some measure.as
it deserves this treasure which is indeed beyond
price. We predict for it a circulation far beyond any
of the author’s former works.— 'The News, Jan. Ith,
S acred Scenes and ■ haracters. —By the Rev. J. T.
Ileadley, author of the “ Sacred Mountains,” &c.
This work will add greatly to the reputation of the
author. In literary merit it more than equals his
“ Sacred Mountains.” Mr. Headley excels in his
glowing style »nd vivid descriptions. His works
are a rich of all the sublimity of thought,
moving tende. ness of passion, and vigorous strength
ol expression, ’rich are to be;fc»und in all the lan
guages by which . ’rials declare their minds.—See
Daily Gl -be, Jan. btn.-
Rambles and Sketches. —By Rev. J. T. Headley.
We have not for a long time sat down to a book
with more pleasing anticipations,' or found those
anticipations more fully realized, than in the peru
sal of the work before us, and: we know it will be
hailed with graification by the many admirers of
the talented author. His “ Napoleon and his Mar
shals ” jwas, perhaps, as popular, and found atleast
as many enthusiastic readers as any book that can
be mentioned. We think the Rambles aad Sketches
are destined to be as popular at least as any of hie
previously published works. There -is not a dull
chapter] in the work, filled as it is with “ an infinite
variety.*’ The author has ample room and verge
enough for the employment of his fine talents to
great advantage and most sucßesfuliy has he re
complished the task. The biographical sketch of
the author is interesting and f 1 well considered,”
and adds much to the value of the book, which is
got up in a very neat and attractive style by the
publisher.—See Portland Transcript, Dec. 15th.
Mr. ikeadley is one of the most promising wri
ters of this country, and we have here on of his
bestbojks—one on which he ’ can-safely rest his
tame. It possesses the fatiguing charms of perfect
simplicity and truth. There is a graceful frankness
pervading the composition, which engages the in
terest of the Tender in the author as well as in the
subject His rambles about* Rome, Pari l , and
London exhibit a thousand lively traits of an inge
nuous nature, upon which a man of taste will de*
light to linger. We predict for this a sale equal to
ihat of any of the author’s works.—See New York
News. i e*
The collection is one of which nofauthor need
be ashamed. It consists, indeed, of some of Mr.
Headlejy’s most brilliant and highly flashed compo
sitions,[of those specimens of his abilities by which
he may be judged with the greatest, safety to bis
tame as a word painter and thinker.--— See New York

Opposed to all Monopolies.
THE have placed on the State Road,
an eati’e new line of passenger Cars, called
OJ>R LINE/’
These Cars have no superior in point of s'jle,
comfort and convenience. They have all the mod
ern improvements, and are No. 1 in every sense of
the word. This Line leaves
NO 272, MARKET ST., PHILADELPHIA,
everyday at ll| o’clock, A. M. (except the Sab
bath) for Lancaster, Columbia, York and Harrisburg,
and on its return leaves err’s hotel, Columbia, at
12; Lancaster at 12fr, and Downingtown at 2 o’clock,
P. M., and arrives at Philadelphia at 4 o’clock, in
time to take the eastern line at 5 o’clock for New
York. s
The cars are attached to the Way Train, and
run in the rear, which gives them a decided pre
ference over any other cars in case of a collision
ora run off, which under the best of management
will sometimes occur. Our passengers and cars
must, from their position in the train, be compara
tively free from danger.
The subscribers are aware of the monstrous
monopoly against which they have to contend, but
they are determined to encounter it, and relying
upon the encouragement of all' who are opposed to
monopolies and in favor of low rates of fare, they
will run this line at the following rates, viz: '
THREE CENTS PER MILE,
no more nor no less under any circumstances
These are the lowest rates at which passengers can
be carried over the road under the present rates of
toll charged by the State, which are two cents per
mile on each passenger, and $4,92 on each car.
In order that our friends may not mistake “OUR
LINE,” we give ’the color of the cars, which is
tbue blue, and ask the patronage of a generous
public to sustain us in our undertaking.

Member of the Royal College of Surgeons. Lon

leges of the. United States and the create* part ol
whose life has been spent in, the Hospitals of Lon
don, Paris. Philadelphia,' and elsewhere, has affect
ed some of the moat astonishing cures that were
ever known Many troubled with ringing in th»
ears and head when asleep,great nervousness, -eing
alarmed at sudden sounds, and 'bashfulness, wnh
frequent blushing, attended, sometimes, with de
rangement of mind, were cured immediately.
TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
Dr. J. addresses all those who have injured
themselves by private and improper indulgences,
••hat secret and solitary habits, which ruin both
body and mind, unfitting them for either bjsines>
orsociely.
These are some of the sad and melancholy ef
fects produced by early habits of. youth, viz:
Weakness of the back and limb 9, Pains in »he head.
Dimness of Sieht, Loss of Muscular Power, Pal
pitation of the Heart, Dyspepsia, Nervous Irrita
bility, Derangement of the Digestive Functions.
General Debility, Symptoms of Consumption, &c
Menially —The fearful effects on the mind are
much to be dreaded : Loss of Memory, Contusion
of ideas,' Depression of Spirits, Evil of Forebo
ding, Aversion of Society, Self Distrust, Love of
Solitude, Timidity, &c., are some of the evils pro
duced*
NERVOUS DEBILITY.
Weakness of the system, Nervous Debility and
premature decay generally ariseefr<>m the destruct
ive habit of youth, that solitary practice so fatal to
tlif healthful existence of man, and nis the young
who are the m<»st apt to become its Victims from
an ignorance of the dangers to which they subject
themselves. Parents and Guardians are often mis
led with respect to the cause or source of disease
in their sons and wards. Alas! how often do they
ascribe to other canses the wasting of the frame,
Palpitation of the Heart, Dyspepsia, Indigestion,
Derangement of the Nervous System, Cough and
Symptoms of Consumption, also those serious
Mental effects, such as loss of Memory, Depres
sion of Spirits or peculiar fits of Melancholy, when
the truth is they have been caused by indulging
Pernicious but alluring practices, destructive (o
both Body and Mind. Thus are swept from ex
istence thousands who might have been of use to
their country, a pleasure to their friends, an orna
ment to society.
WEAKNESS OF THE ORGANS a
immediately cured and full vigor rc^ored.
Oh, how happy have hundreds of misguided
youths been made,-who have been suddenly resto
red to health from the devastations of those terrific
maladies which result from, indiscretion. Such
persons, before con'emplaunir
MARRIAGE,
should reflect that a sound mind and body are the
most necessary requisites to promote connubial
happiness. Jntleed, without this, the journey thro’
life becomes a weary pilgrimage; the prospect
hourly darkens to the view ; the mind becomes
shadowed with despair, and filled with the melan
choly reflection that the happiness of another be
comes blighted with our own. Let no false delica
cy prevent you: but apply immediately.
He who places himself under the core of Dr.
JOHNSTON, may religiously confide in his hon
or as a Gentleman, and confidently rely upon his
skill as a Physician
TO STRANGERS.
The many thousands cured at this institution
within the last ten years, and the numerous im
portant Surgical Operations performed by Dr. J ,
witnessed by the Reporters of the papers and ma
ny other persons, notices of which have appeared
again and aeairi before the public, is a sufficient
guarantee that the afflicted will find a skilful and
honorable physician.
