and full Vigor Restored.
Thla Distressing Anectlon which renders Lire

Wild by the victims of Improper Indulgences.
Young persons are too apt to commit excesses
from hot being aware of the dreadful conscqauees
thBt may eusuc. Now, who that understands
the subject will pretend to deny that the power
of procreation Is lost sooner by those falling into
Improper habits than by the prudent t Besides
being deprived tho pleasures of healthy offspring,
the most serious and destructive symptoms to both
body and mind arise. The system becomes de

Persons ruined In health by unlearned preten

should apply Immediately.
DR. JOHNSTON,
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons, Lon
don, Graduated from one of the most eminent
Colleges In the United States, nnd the greater
part of whose Ifa has been spent in the hospitals
of London, Prls, Philadelphia and elsewhere,
has effected some of the most astonishing cures
that were ever known ; many troubled with ring
ing In the head and ears when asleep, great
nervousness, being alarmed nt sudden sounds,
liaslifulness, with frequent blushing, attended
sometimes w ith derangement of mind, were cured
immediately.
TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
' Dr. J. addresses all those who have injurnl
themselves by Improper indulgence and solitary
habits, which rnlii both body and mind, uulittiiig
them for cither business, study, society or mar
riage. Tiif.se are some of the sad and melancholy
effects produced by early habits of youth, viz:
Weakness of the Back nnd Limbs, Pains in the
Buck and Head, Dimness of biirht, Loss of Mus
cular Power, Palpitation of the Heart, Dyspcpsy,
Nervous Irritability, Derangement of Diu i-live
Functions, General Debility, Symptoms of Con
sumption, &e.
M KNTiM.Y The fearful effect on the iniml
nre much to bo dreaded Loss of Memory, Con
fusion of Ideas, Depression of Spirits, Evil
Forehndiiig. Aversion to Society, Self-Distrust,
Love of Solitude. Timidity, cce., uie wmio of the
evils produced.
TiioVSiNps of persons of nil ages can now
Judge what is the cause of their declining health,
losing their vigor, becoming, weaK, pnie, nervous
nnd emaciated, having a singular apjwarance
about the eyes, rough and symptoms ot consump
tion.
YOUNG MEN
Who have Injured themselves by a certain prac
tice Indulged In when alone, a habit frequently
leurned from evil companions, or at seheol, the
effects of which nre nightly fell, even when
asleep, aud if not cured, renders marriage lnios
sllile, and destroys both mind and body, should
apply Immediately.
nut a pay mat a young man, mc nope oi m
country, tho darliug of his parents, should be
snatched from all jyrospects and enjoyments of
life, by tbe consequence or deviating irom me
path of nature and indulging in a certain six-ret
habit. Uuch persons mcst before contemplating
MARRiAUE,
relied that a sound mind and body are the most
necessary requisites to promote connubial happl
ueiw. Indeed without these, the journey through
life become a weary pilgrimage) the prospect
hourly ilarkeus to tho view ; tbe infud becomes
hndowed with despair uud lilled with the melan
choly reflection, that the happiucss of another
Itecorues blighted with our own.
A CERTAIN DISEASE.
When the misguided nnd imprudent votary of
pleasure Uuds that he has imbibed tho seeds of
this painful disease, it too oil en happens that an
Ill-timed seuse or shame, or dreud tf discovery,
deters him from applying to those who, from
education and resjieetability, can alone befrieud
him, deluvlng till the constitutional symptoms of
this horrid disease! make their uppearanee, such
as ulcerated sore throat, diseased nose, uoctural
pains in the head and limbs, dimness of sight,
deafness, nodes on the shiu bones and arms,
blotches ou tho head, face and extremities, pro
gressing with frightful rapidity, till at lust tho
palate of the mouth or the bones of the nose fall
lu, aud the victim of this awful disease becomes
a horrid object of commiseration, till death puts
a period to his dreadful suffering, by sendiug
him to " that Undiscovered Country from wheuco
no traveller returns."
It is a melancholy fact that th sands DIE
victims to UiU terrible dismjy, ikvoiigh falling
Into the hauls of ItfeTuMarytinskillful PRE
TENDERJs, sbn ii uMf that deadly Pol
son, Mer8nry,e.,aj.wy tha constltutiou, und
Incapable of arcing, keer M unhappy ufferer
month after month taking their noxious or In
jurious compounds, and hmcad of being restored
to a renewal of Life Vljjor and Happiness, lu des
pulr leave hiin with ruined Health to sigh over
his galling disappointment.
Te such, therefore, Dr. JonwsTov plodgcs him
self to preserve the most Inviolable Secrecy, and
from his extensive practlco and observations iu
the great Hospitals of Europe, and tbe lirst in
this country, vis i England, Franco, Philadelphia
aud elsewhere, is eunbled to offer the most cur
tain, sicedy and effectual remedy lu tbe world
for all diseases of Imprudence.

HAVE YOU A MOTHER!
Have yn a mother? love her well,
While she Is spared on earth t
Walt not till death shall cull her hener,
To know her previous worth.
Walt not till she lies cold and still,
Most beautiful, though dead,
To think of what yon should have done,
Bcforo her dear life tlot.
Think now how much she should be loved,
, And prise her ns you ought,
Or else, your life when she e gone,
With sorrow shall be fraught.
Oh. wnlch her, guard her with your love,
While with you she Is left,
For when she leaves you, life will seem
Of every Jfty bereft.
Oh, soothe her In her hours of pain,
Be gentle and be mild ;
r tinw sweet 'twill be for you to know
You've been a faithful child. '
Miscellaneous.
An Evil and lis Remedy,
Oue mail with any trade is worth n thou
sand without otic. A return to the old
plan of apprenticing boys to trades is be
ing advocated. Tho bus In of young men
iu every large city who apply for employ
ment, and fail to get it, for the reason that
they cannot truthfully ntlirni that they nre
educated nr especially fitted for nny parti
cular business, constitutes a polent argu
ment in favor of reform. Under tho ap
prentice system we should have fewer igno
rant mechanics aud incompetent busiuess
men. A trade is half a man's fori inc.
It presents iu a uutsliull the gront evil of
tho times. How many thousands of young
men are now idle in our great cities in
our towns and villages who profess to
be seeking work, yet avoid the foundry, the
machine shop, the shop of the builder, nnd
every other place where useful trades are
taught and practiced, as they would avoid
a pestilence. They seek ouly such em
ployments as promise little work and largo
pay. With the most of our young men the
learning of a trade is not respectable. And
who is to blame for this sentiment, so uni
versal among our youth V It is the pa
rents it is society, so called. Society is
understood to taboo the mechanic and
working man, and hence it is believed that
there is no road to respectability through
the mechanic's shop.
No greater or more fatal mistake was
ever made. No system nfcdueatiou was
ever so false and dangerous as that which
i'.culcatcs the idea thai labor is a badge of
dishonor or that the laboring man is not
the peer of the most exalted in the land.
Tho work shop is tho best and surest
road to usefulness and to fortune. It lies
directly in the path of honor ami distinction
nnd wealth. It is the best theatre now of
ten d for tho most perfect develoeiiracut of
the man of genius and of talent. There is
no place where the man of education can
demonstrate Ids .capacity fur usefulness
belter than the machine shop, nnd amidst
the steam and machinery of our great inan
'il'ai'torii s. It i.-i above all others, the place
for the young man who really wants to
work and win his way to wealth and to an
honored and honoiable position among his
fellow nun.
We need not go beyond our own city to
find examples which any young man, how
ever distinguished hi family or illustrous
his lineage, may well emulate. Tho front
rank in the grand army of progress is nc
o r. ling to them and to men of their stamp
throughout tho land. I.et our young nieu
of education look to tha life which the stur
dy meebani ; furnish' 8 ns one worthy to be
followed, aud we shall have fewer upon
themselves ami shame and dishonor upon
their families.
Tub Kino and the Soldier. Fred
rick of Prussia had a great mania for en
listing gigantic soldiers, into tho Hoyal
Guards, aud paid an enormous bounty to
his recruiting ollleers for getting them.
One day the recruiting sergeant chanced to
espy an Iliberuian who was at least seven
feet high : he accosted him in English, and
proposed that ho should enlist. The idea
of military life and the large bounty so de
lighted 'Patrick that he immediately con
sented. "Hut unless you can speak Germon, the
king will not give you so much."
"Oh!" said the Irishman, "sure it's I
that don't know a word of Herman."
'Hut," said the sergeant, "three words
will be sulllcicnt, and those you can learn
in a short time. The king knows every
man iu the guards. As soon as he set s
you, l.e will ride up and ask you how old
you arc; you will say, Tireutii-ma u ;'
ucxl.how long have you lieen in the service :
you must reply, '7Vce imX,' finally, if you
are provided with clothes aud rations ; you
