R. JOHNSTON,
Physician of this celebrated Institution, has
discovered tho most certain, speedy, pleasant and

DISEASES OF IMPRUDENCE.
Weakness of tho Hack or Limbs, Strictures,
Affections of Kidneys nnd Bladder, Involun
tary Discharges, Impoteney, General Deblll
i.y, Nervousness, Dyspcpsy, Languor, Low
Spirits. Confusion of Ideas, Palpitation of
the Heart, Timidity, Tremblings, Dimness
of Sight or Giddiness, Disease of tho Head,
Throat, Nose or Skin, Affections of Liver, Lungs,
Stomach or Bowels these terrible Disorders
arising from the Solitary Habits of Youth those
secret nnd solitary practices more fatal to their
victims than the song of Syrens to tho Mariners
of Ulysses, blighting their most brilliant hopes
of anticipations, rendering marriage, Ac., impos
sible. iOUNG MEN
especially, who have become tho victims of Soli
tary Vice, that dreadful and destructive habit
which annually sweeps to an untimely grave
thousands of young men of tho most exalted
talents and brilliant Intellect, who might other
wise have entranced listening Senates with the
thunders of eloquence or waked to ccstacy tho
living lyre, may call with full contidence.
MARRIAGE.
Married Persons or Young Men contemplating
marriage, aware of Physical Weakness, (Loss
of Procreative Power Impoteney), Nervous Ex
citability. Palpitation, Organic Weakness, Ner
vous Debility, or any other Disqualification,
speedily relieved.
He who places himself under the enre of Dr. J.
may religiously confide In his honor as a gentle
man, nnd confidently rely uoon his skill as a Pbv.
siciau.
ORGANIC WEAKNESS,
Impoteney. Loss of Power, immediately Cured
and full Vigor Restored.
This Distressing Atleetion which renders Life
miserable nnd marriage impossible Is the penalty
paid by the victims " of Improper Indulgences.
Young persons tire too apt to commit excesses
from not being aware of the dreadful conseqences
that may ensue. Now, who that understands
the subject will pretend to deny that the power
of procreation is lost sooner by thoso falling into
Improper habits than by tbo prudent ? Besides
being deprived the pleasures of healthy offspring,
the most serious and destructive symptoms to hot li
body and mind arise. The system becomes de
faulted, the Physical nnd Mental Functions
Weakened, Loss of Procreative Power, Nervous
Irritability, Dyspepsia, Palpitation of the Heart,
Indigestion, Constitutional Debility, a Wasting
of the Frame, Cough, Consumption, Decay and
Death.
A CURE WARRANTED IN TWO DAYS.
Persons ruined in health by unlearned preten
ders who keep them trilling month after month,
taking poisonous and injurious compounds,
should apply immediately.
DR. JOHNSTON,
I Member of the Royal College of Surgeons, I.on

Colleges in the United States, nnd the greater
j part of whose ife has been spent in the hospitals
I of London, Pris, Philadelphia and elsewhere,

TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
Dr. J. addresses all those, who have iniurrd
! theme.lve.s by improper indulgence aud solidity
j habils, which ruin both bo.iy and '"bid. uuli'.tiiig
them for either business, study, ijoeiety or mar
I rlaue.
i Tiiksi; arc some of tbo sad nnd melancholy
! effects produced by early habits of youth, vi. :
l Weakness of the Hack and Limbs, Pains in the
; Bnckand Head, Dimness of Sight, Loss of Mus
' citlnr Power, Palpitation of the Heart, Dyspepy,

Finn lions, General Debility, tsymptoms of Con- j

! fusion of Ideas, Depression of Spirits, Evil- j
! Forebodings, Aversion to Society, Sell-Distrtist, i
; Love of Solitude, Timidity, Ale., are some of the. i
! evils produced. " i
I Thousands of persons of ull nges can now '
: judge what is the cause of their declining health, I
: losing their vigor, becoming, weak, pale, nervous j
."Mi emaciated, having a singular appearance .
i about the eyes, couejliund symptoms of eonstimp- i
I tiun. ;
YOUNG MEN !
Who have Injured themselves by a certain prae- ;
tice iuUulged in when nloue, a habit frequently
learned from evil companions, or at school, the i
eliects of which are n'uhtly tell, even when i
asleep, and if not caved, renders marriage impo- i
Bible, aud destroys both lnin.l and body, should :
apply Immediately. '
What a pity that a young man, the hope of bis i
I country, the dariiug of bis parents, should he
snatched from ull prospects nnd enjoyments ol :
life, by the consequence of deviuting from the
path of nature and indulging In u certain set ret j
h.ibil. Such persons mi st, beforo contemplating
MARRIAGE,
, reflect that a sound mind and body urc the most
necessary requisites to promote connubial happi
ness. Indeed without these, the journey through j
life becomes a weary pilgrimage ; the prospect i
hourly darkens to the iew ; the mind becomes j
I shadowed with despair and tilled Willi the melan
choly reduction, that the, happiness of another !
becomes blighted uitli ouroun. '
j A I hit I AIN DISEASE.
I When the misguided aud imprudent votary of
I pleasure UndB that he has imbibed the seeds of
! this painful disease, it too often happens that an
j ill-timed sense of shame, or dread of discovery,
deters him from applying to those who, from
! education unit respectability, can alone befrieud
: him, delaying till the constitutional symptoms ot i
j ttiis horrid disease make their appearance, such '
; us ulcerated sore throat, diseased nose, noctural 1
pains lu the head am'. limbs, dimness ol sight, :
deafness, nodes on the shin bones and linns,
blotches on the head, face and extremities, pro
gressing with frightful rapidity, till at last the
palate of the lnoulli or the boues of the nose fall
in, aud the victim of this awful disease becomes
u horrid object of commiseration, till death puts
n period to his dreadful suffering, by sending
him to " that Undiscovered Country from whence
uo traveller returns."
It is a melancholy fact that thousands DIE
victims to this teriiblo disease, through fulling
into the bauds of Ignorant or unskillful PRE
TENDERS, who, by the use of that deadly Poi
son, Mercurv, &c, destroy the constitution, nnd
incapable of euriug, keep the unhappy suiferer
month after mouth taking lliuir noxious or in
jurious compounds, and instead of being restored
to a renewal of Life Vigor and Happiness, in des
pair leave him with ruined Health to sigh over
bis galling disappointment.
To such, therefore, Dr. Johnston pledges hini
seif to preserve the most Inviolable Secrecy, and !
from his extensive practice aud observations in
the great Hospitals of Euroiie, and the first in !
this country, viz : England, I ranee, Philadelphia
and elsewhere, is enabled to oiler the most cer
tain, speedy and effectual remedy iu tue world
for ull diseases of imprudence.

was practically associated by tuy friends,
Messrs. Clay mid Thompson, with them

Canada, invited a number of citizens of the

Thompson (no doubt very properly) placed
upon their powers find duties. 1 had no
hesitation in meeting the public men who
came to the fills, and expressed a desire
for my societv. That point being the most
conveuii iit and eligible for the t raus ictwm
of my own business, I remained there du
ring the whole period ol my stay in Cana

frequent aud extensive inb rcourse with
these gentlemen than either of my friends,
one of whom. Mr. Clay, made his head
quarters at St. Colhoritics. the oilier, Mr.
Thompson, at Toronto. Hositlcs a crowd
of less distinguished persons, I saw during
the course of the summer (in some inslan

other sources of information, including in
terviews with leading members of the order
of the Sons of Liberty, us to tins temper of
the Democratic party, and especially of
the people, of the Xot lliwrst, and the pros
pect of any action in that section favorable
1 1 our cause, I shall tlule iu another part
of this report.
Cirtuin editorials which appeared in the
Xew York Tfitmnc early in .lime, connect
ed with intimations from our friends hi
Now York, induced a hope (which with
me lias iipened into an abiding conviction)
that the able editor of that inlbiential ,i"tli'
nal entertained opinions upon the (subject
of jieaee. much more reasonable and modi-rale
than thosj of the Ib'pubiienn parly in
general. Tor Ihia reason nvilher Mr. Clay
nor myself (Mr. Thompson being in To
ronto, mid taking uo part iu thrse confer
ences, except wilh one or two gentlemen
men who visited him in that city) discour
ed Mr. Sunders from sending such an itivi
lati.ui through a third person to Mr. Gree
ley, as he had sent to others to come to the
falls anil sec us. Mr. Sanders soon reported
that this suggestion was most kindly re
ceived by Mr. Greeley, but thai he express
ed a preference for Washington as a place'
of meeting, nnd desired to know if we were
willing to go there. It did not occur to
us, as we hail no doulil trom what nail
subsequently transpired was the fact, that i
Mr. Greeley supposed we held any oci.-.i
diplomatic posi'ion. We had never writ- j
ten a line or uttered a word to justify such
an inference. The anonymous publications
attributing to us conversations, in which 1
various terms of peace and rccoust Miction !
were suggested, had no shadow of founda- !
tiou in truth. This impression of Mr. !
Greeley most probably nrouso from the ;
ignorance, folly of knavery of Colorado j
Jewell, w lio was the medium of communi
cation between Mr. Sat.ders and himself.
Nothing could ho further from the truth
than tho statement of our ingenious friend, j
Dr. Mackay, iu his Idler to the London
Time, that we laid a trap to catch Mr. I
Lincoln. Had we suspected liny delusion '
us to our true character, or tho informal j
nature of the proposed conference, it would j
have been promptly disellod. In con-
sidering the propriety of accepting the sug- i
gestion of Mr. Greeley to visit Washington, j
we most deeply regretted that it. was im- I
possible to submit the question to our own '
government for its decision. j
There germed to us, however, ution re- ;
flection, no doubt us to the line of conduct
which would advance the interests of our
country. The good to be accomplished by
such a visit would, in our judgment, have
greatly over-balanced any mischief that
could result from it. The publicity of our
presence iu tho United Stales, with the
sanction of its Government, must have im- 1
parted a mighty inlluence to tho cause of
peace by the free discussion it would have
authorized und invited. Tho npporluni-'
ties of general and unrestrained intercourse ;
might hau been improved bo ns to secure !
an insight into the temper and policy of j
the administration, tho views of leading i
public men. the spirit of the people and the j
resources of the country. Under this con- i
viction we authorized Mr. Sunders to sig- j
nify to Mr. Greeley our willingness to tiro- ;
ceed to Washington upon tho tender of an i
absolute nnd unconditional safe conduct !
from tbo President of the United Stales,
When Mr. Sanders submitted the note to I
us, which appears first in tho printed cor I
respondence, wo found that ho had, most I
uuexppeicfily, associated his name with our
own iu the proposed visit. There wero ,
tcriou-i objections to thia asbiiculiuii, but
believing Mr. Sanders to be a sincere and
zealous friend of the confederacy, thinking
Hint on this occasion his peculiar talents
might render him useful in acquiring tho
information w desired, and feeling that
if the safe conduct was tendered, his wishes
on this subject would he entitled to some
consideration, we permitted the nolo to ho
sent without correction. It is. however,
incumbent upon inn to ndd Ihnt, with nil
proper respect for Mr. Sanders, ho was nt
no time taken into my conlidence, nor J.
believo into that of Mr. Clay. In a few
days we received n, letter from Mr. Greeley,
advising us of his arrival nt the I ntci na
tional Hotel, on the America side of the
falls, and tendering us a safe conduct to
Washington, nnd his own escort, upon the
hypothesis that we were duly accredited
from Richmond as the bearers of proposi
tions, looking to the establishment of peace,
nnd desired to visit Washington iu tho ful
fillment of our mission. Mr. Clay nnd
myself were so deeply impressed with tho
brave responsibility which would attach to
any action tvu might take on this commu
nication, that we telegraphed to Colonel
Thompson to mrcl us at Si. Catherines and
unite in our deliberations. Whilst I can
only report tho reasoning which led my
own mini! to its conclusions, yet I may
add thnt the response which was made to
Greeley received the approbation of Mr.
Thompson, ns well ns of Mr. Clay and my
self. Our most obvious course was to
have informed Mr. Greeley that he labored
under a strange delusion, both ns to our
character and wishes, nnd that wo could
only meet him ns private citizens, and for
an informal interchange of opinion. This
course, however, ns I thought, would have
given to the parly now in power in the
United Slates the means of defending itself
against the charge which was used with
more edict by its political adversaries.
Neither the present nor nny oilier llt'publi
ran whiiinltirtilioik can secure the same de
gree of public support in the prosecution
of a war on a policy of confiscation and
emancipation, as on a policy which looks
simply to the restoration of the Union. Mr.
Lincoln was reproached wilh an unwilling
ness to make peace on any terms short of
the subjugation ol the States of this con
federacy, and Ihe niter ovei throw of their
peculiar social system, and a consequent
indisposition to ascertain the sentiments
of the Southern people, for fear they might
proli ss a readiness to submit to the au
thority of the United Stales on more rea
sonable conditions. Although no proposi
tion for peace which did not concede our
obsolule independence would have been
entertained by us for a moment, it did not
seem to mc w ise to give our enemies Ihe
moral ninl material bctielit to be derived
from a position they were not honestly en
tilled to occupy.
Had we returned the answer which has
been suggested, the friends of President
Lincoln could have appealed to tho letter
of Mr. Greeley as a proof of his willingness
to open negotiations on the. most liberal
basis. Thai, letter wholly abandoned the
altitude which tins Government of the
United States had niaininined since thf
secession of South Carolina, mid to which,
in-cording to the declaration of Mr. Seward
in his recent speech at Auburn, it has re
turned of "no negotiations willi rebels in
arms." It expressed a r- adiness 1o open
negotiations, and attempt toscttie through
diplomacy the question which has been so
lung in vain submitted to the arbitrament,
of war. It did not even announce that the
restoration of the Union was an indispensa
ble condition of peace, but prolli red a free
nnd untiammdcd conference. Had the
correspondence closed nt that point, it
must have added siivngth to the adminis
tration of Mr. Lincoln, nnd thus increased
its capacity to carry on tho war. Within
our own borders, it would have nourished
the delusive aud dangerous impo of a com
promise wilh our enemy on terms consis
tent with liberty aud self respect. A re
newed pressure would have been brought
lu bear on the President to send commis
sioners to Washington with the view of
open negotiations, ..l the hazard of ficsh
iudig'i'Uii s to the confederacy.
In framing our reply to the. letter of
Mr. Greeley, we endeavored to shape it so
as to compel such new developments from
Mr. Lincoln as would disclose the true
policy of his administration, or sach an
adherence to the position assumed in that
letter ns would enable, our Government to
act upon il with safety. This purpose was
fully accomplished in calling forth the
celebrated document, addressed '"To whom
il may concern," No paper probably ever
produced so great a revolution of public
sentiment in the same space of lime. Al
though a gross delusion sis to tho exteut of
thair recent military success has induced
a reaction, and secured the re-election of
Mr. Lincoln.it is destined to exercise an
enduring ititlucnce for good. Il has per
manently weakened nnd distracted the
War parly of the North, mid there is much
reason to hope that before many months
intervene, it will wholly deprive ilof Demo
cratic support. However this may be, it
has united aud animated our own people
more than any political action of our ad
versaries since the commencement of the
war.
It has been suggested that Ihe effect of
this correspondence, by rendering probable
the defeat of Mr. Lincoln at the polls, was
unfavorable in the Northwest by repressing
a growing tendency to revolution iu that
quarter. This was, no doubt, to some ex
tent, its temporary etl'ecl. but it has worked
no injury to our cause. The revolutionary
clement has been hitherto too feeble to be
employed in our service with any advan
tage.' llefore the correspondence took place
our sanguine friends in that region had
fixed upon various periods of revolutionary
outbreak, but they were deferred at their
own instance from time to time, as the con
viction gradually dawned upon their own
minds of extent to which they had exag
gerated their strength. From nil the de
velopments which have since been made, I
nm satisfied that no explosion could have
taken place previous to tho election, which
would not have resulted in permanent in
jury to our cause. The Northwest is not
now, and, without the systematic aud pos
sibly long continued application of tho
agencies which control the popular mind,
may never be, r'qie for resolution. Hut il
is fermenting with the passions, out of
which revolutions have been created. In
Illinois, Indiana and possibly Ohio, a ma
jority of the population nre hostile to the
'present administration. The reoent elec
tion furnished no evidence to the contrary,
for. witli a largo body of tho peaco parly,
M'Clellan was held iu as much odium as
Lincoln himself. The billerucks between
these hostile factious is intense. The one
lists received from tho other every outrugo
which tho strong oh licrpelrato ou tho
other every outrage which the strong can
perpetraUi ou the wenk. It would be a
JiiUil mibtuke, iu my opinion, to abandon
all effort to separate this section of the
United M.ie, because u j results h.ive as
yet been achieved commensurate wilh our
expectations. Tho hope of closing the war
by negotiations has been extinguished.
Unr resources are (luuimsli-.iig more rapid
ly, for obvious rensons, thnn those of our
enemy. To keep nlive with a degree of
apprehension ns will lead to the concentra
tion of large bodies of troops to repress in
surrection within llieir own limits, will, of
itself, bo an important diversion in our
favor. We should employ money mid talent
without stint, to give this brooding resent
ment tho proportions of nnnrchy nnd civil
strife. lift us preserve our communica
tions with our friends in the North. Wnrn
cd by our past experience, let us introduce
arms more gradually and cautiously, in
lur ns practically subsidize hiding presses,
nnd through the ordinary channels of news
pa ppers, n9 well ns of campaign documents,
enlighten nnd inlluelicc t lie public mind.
Kulist public men of uliaraclet; and in
fluence, whose principles nnd sympathies
fire willi us, by indemnifying them against
the hazards to which bold and decisive nc
lion may expose ihein. Wilh arms, lenders
and an opportunity, we could strike a
deadly blow.
It is proper to add that I have expressed
only my individual opinions, mid do not
know to what extent they would meet Ihe
concurrence of Messrs. Clay and Tl.otnp
son. "

A VImIoii of. Mr. Xiisbj'.
Our old friend, l'ctroletitn V. N'asby has ;
experienced another series of frightful !
dreams, which he communicates to tho
To'i(th) Hbi: from the Confederate X Roads
on June '22. After relating several dreams I
of a minor political und domestic nature!
he proceeds at length to describe an alt.nnpt j
to poison the Republican giant. He says :
Melhawt 1 wuz iu a buildin, where 1
coodent make out. Stretched out onto a !
couch and kivercd with a flag, wuz the 1
body uv an enormous giant the most huge !
and comprehensive giant 1 had ever seen, i
even in ilreems. His legs wuz like pillars,
his arms wuz like beams, and his hands
spread out like lb map uv our wunst hap
py but now opprest country. He seemed'
to bo hi the last stages uva fearful sickness.
He lied bit', iu his day, it giant uv immense i
strength and wu. even iu his illness ez
handsome a human b. iti ez I ever set eyes ;
onto. Put; it v. ttz evident that, he wuz go
ing fast. He drew bis breath painfully,
and from ugly wounds ou his body blood
oozed slowly but depletinly.
"Who is he "t"' I asked uv the Goddess
uv Liberty, which sot at his head in deep
inournin and weepin vink-nlly.
"Thai's Republicanism," she answered,
"tho only actooal, ginuine friend I ever bed

Hut. they nre kiliin him. That gash in bis

I looked, and lo '. P iss Tweed. Il.ifihian,
Seymour, Hendricks, .,nci a dozen uv my
pertikeler friends were comin in. They
had masks on their faces made of Noo York
VVi'jooij.s, but I kti'iwed 'em fir that. Hoff
man seezed the head uv the prostiaii. giant,
while Tweed poured down his throat a
nausous llooid from a jug marked "Cincin
nati,'' fairly 1'ircin it down him. ,The vic
tim shuddered ez he swallcivd it, ez il'il
was his last and linal shudder.
"Yoo've killed him '." .shrieked the God
dess. "We blecve we hev madam !'' shouted
the fellows iu korus. puliin oil their ma-ks,
"nnd you'll toiler him within a yeer."
"Kill her, now I" yelled one iif 'em who
wuz evidently from Georgy. "she ain't got
her champion to save her, this time."
And they seczed her and gagged and
bound her. with frightful yells.
And iu their joy tiu-y exeeoote,', a most
demoniac war dance about the corpse, in
which I jined, with anajility I didn't know
I wuz possessed. Hut jist ez our exhulla
tion wuz nt its highest the corpse gave a

The moment they wuz oil' hissluuiick the

to his cheeks and his wcakuis all left him.
(ilarin about furiously, he put one foot on
Greeley mid Hrown and their unliable com
panions, ez a man crushes lu elles, with the
other lie kicked the jug out uv the winder,
which jug wuz followed by Tweed and his
friends, who went through the same apcr

He cut the bonds oil' the goddess, tore olf
her inournin, ami wuz in tho net uv em

1 lay four hours cogitalin over this

That's the conundrum. Is il a warnin uv
