Fcrsois ruined in health by unlearned preun- lera who keen them triflinse niiiuth after month, i taking poisonous aud injurious compouu.l, should apply immediately. DR. JOHNSTON, Member. of the Royal College of Surgeons, Lon don, Graduated from one of the most eminent Col'ege in the United States, and the greater pHrt of w hose ife has been spent in the hospital of London, Pris, Philadelphia and elsewhere, has ejected some of the mot astonishing cures that were ever known ; many troubled with ring ing in the head and ears when asleep, great nervousness, being alarmed at sudden omuds, bashtalues;, with frequent blushiug, attended sometimes with derangement of miud, were cured immediatelv. TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE. Dr. J. addresses all those who have iujurrd themselves by improper indulgence and solitary habits, which ruin both body and mind, unfittiug them for either business, study, society or mar riage. 7 hee are tome of the sad and melancholy fleets iroducetl by early habit of youth, viz: Weakness of the Back and Limbs, Pains in th Back and Head, Dimness of Sight, Los of Mus cular Power, Palpitation of the Heart, Dyepepsy, Nervou Irritability, Derangement of Durealive Functions, General Debility, Symptoms of Cou cumption, Ac. MBSTalXY The fearful effects on the mind '. are much to be dreaded Loss of Memory, Con- ! fusion of Ideas, Depression of Spirits, Evil Forebodings, Aversion to Society, Self-Distrust, Love of Solitude, Timidity, fcc., are some of the evils produced. Thoi sauds cf persons of all age can now ludge what is the cause of their declining heuith, losing their .igor, becoming, weak, pule, nervous and emaciated, having a eingnlar appearance bout the eyes, cough and symptom of consump tion.

What a pity that a young man, the hope of his country, the darling f hi parent, should be sualchci from all prospect and enjoyments of life, by the consequence of deviating from the path of nature and Indulging in a certain secret iabit. buch persons mcst before conumplnting MARRIAGE. r"2ect that a sound mind and body are the raos1 uecetsary requisites to promote connubial happi- ues. indeed without 1 these, the Journey through t pUgr'image; the prospect ! view ; Cue mind becomes life become a weary hourly darken to the shadowed w ith despair and tiled with the tuelau' choly reflection, that the bappine'" of another becomes bliehted with our own. A CERTAIN DISEASE. When the misguided and imprudent votary of pleasure finds that he has imbibed the seeds of this painful disease, it too often happens that an ill-timed sense of shame, or dread of discovery, deter him from applying to those who, from education and respectability, can alone- befriend tia, delaying till the constitutional symptoms of this horrid disease make their appearance, such as ulcerated ore throat, diseased nose, noctural paint ia the head and limbs, dimness of sight, Jeafne, nodes on the shin bones and ants, Motches on the head, face and extremities, pro gressing with frightful rapidity, till at laet the palate of the mouth or the bone of the note fall in, and the victim of this awful disease becomes a horrid object of commiseration,-till .lejith puts . period to his dreadful suffering, by aenrtiug liim to "that Undiscovered Count r from whesre j no traveller returns." It is a melancholy fact that thousand DIE victims to this terrible disease, thr-jugh falling into the hand of Ignorant or unskillful PRE TENDERS, who, by the use of that deadly Poi son, Mercury, &c, destroy the constitution, and iijcupable of curing, keep the nuhappv sufferer month after month taking their noxious or in jurious compound., aud instead of being restored to a renew al of Life Vigor and Happiness, in des pair leave him with ruined Health to sigh over hi galling disappoint meet. To ucb, therefore, Dr. Joktos pledges him 4.e!f to preserve the moat Inviolable Secrecy, and from his extensive pracll'-e and observations in the great Hopitals of Europe, and the first ir. his countrv, viz : England, France, Philadelphia and elsewhere, is enabled to offer the most cer tain, speedy and effectual remedy in the world for all diseases of imprudence.

JA1ISS OILERl'.T. rretty, naucy Kitty went swinging up and down, up and down, her light muslin dress waving and fluttering in the breeze. "Glorious, Rupert, isn't it ?" she cried, railing to her pet anil companion, a uuge, shaggy dog. "I5ut where are you ? Why j don't you answer, sir?" And swinging; more slowly.shc looked everywhere around her. Kitty was down at the bottom of the old fashioned garden, back of her father's farm house, where a swing had been put up for her, iu a grove of trees. Suddenly a merry voice cried out "here," and a handsome young man leaped the low fence, and advanced toward her, laughing, and doffing his hat. Kitty was out of the swing and on her feet in an instant, her eyes flashing, her figure drawn up to its full height. She looked prettier than nver in her indigna tion. "I beg your pardon," said the intruder, bowing half-mockingly ; "but I was taking a short cut across the field, when I Iward you call me." "Call vott'' Kitty looked as jf she would annihilate him. "Certainly," with the utmost coo'nes. "You called 'Rupert,' didn't you ?' "I was calling my dog, sir," said Kitty, with infinite hauteur. "Well, I'm not exactly a dog," was the laughing answer, "but I've often been railed an 'impudent puppy' at your ser- vifM rriiaa And ei SrtWuf iii,alei arn. Aad he bowed again pro- foundly. j I should think so,' snapped Kitty, ! stamping her li little foot. And she muttered i to herself, not expecting to be heard. 'Im- j pudence !' i The stranger heard the word, ceverthe- less. His manner chaugt-d. lie became as serious and deferential as the most chiv alrous knight of old in presence of bis mis tress. 'I beg pardon. I'm afraid I'm trespass ing. But the path through the field was J trodden as if one had the right of way there, and I beard you call well, I made a mistake." Again the mirthful look danced in his eyes. "Gwd-morning !" Ha swept the very ground with bis hat. ns h executed another profound bow, i and then turned, and putting his baud on I the top of the fence, vaulted over, aud the ! next moment was out of sight. Kitty did not swing any more that day, i but went back to the house muttering, 'the ; impudent fellow,' while the real Rupert, 1 who had been off chasing a rabbit, re-appeared just at this juncture and accompa- nied her, frolicking and barking around ! her. But this was not the Rupert she : meant, when she said, 'the impudent fel ' low.' A week passed. Kitty saw no more of j the stranger, though she often wondered who he could be, and if he was staying in the neighborhood. At tho end of that time, she attended an evening party at i Judge Stacy'. Almost the first person ! she saw, on entering the room, was the j handsome s'.ranger. i 'I wish to introduce you to uiy uep2iew,' said the Judge, leading that personage up to Kitty. 'Ilia came, by baptism, is Ru j pert Mortimer ; but he is such a saucy fel ; low, that he is best known among bis friends, as 'that impudent puppy !" The eyes of the two young people met. Young Mr. Mortimer's were dancing with fun. For the life of her, Kittv could not help laughing. So they laughed in concert, and lie said, bowing low, and repeating the words he had used in the garden, 'Yes, 'that impudent puppy' at your service.' i 'He ih making sport of me,' said Kilty to herself, and drew herself up haughtily ; I and for the rest of the interview she was i cold and reserved, connaiog herelf to j monosyllabic replies. Yeiy boon, at the i appearance of one of her many admirer. ! she excused herself, and went off to dance. A h't of ii Tartue I'm afraid nolilo i i quized Rupert Mortimer. "Kut how pretty ; she if. She looks, too, as if she hsd a noblo character ; and she can take her own part i an I have found to my cost. But I'm j afraid sh has been spoilt by admiration. I To get iuto her good graces, one uiust go i on hi very knes to her, and faith ! it is almost worth while to do it. Hut ao ! Rupert Mortimer, my boy, keep your self i respect." Then, with a laugh, 'Is thy ser j vant a dog, that he should do this thing ?' Yet oftcu, that evening, Rupert found i himself, as if by some magnetic attraction, j drawn to Kitty's sid-;. Kitty, too, could ! not help, occasionally, glancing, admiring ! ly at his handsome face and graceful figuro-. .She saw, very sooq, that he w'a the bet i dancer ia the room. Ho, wheii a waltz ! struck up, and ho asked her to join in it,she j could not resist. 'If I don't dance with : him,' she said to herself, 'the other girls j will say be didu't ask me ; ani that would j never do.' Kitty had never tojoyed a waltz so much, j She forgot the ridiculous episode in the 1 swing, forgot the stranger's cool efl'rontery, forgot everything but the dreamy music ' and the rythmical movement of her com- paniou. When the band stopped, she sighi:d, involuntarily, wishing it wa all to : go over again. ! 15alls, pic-nics. and croquet parties fol lowed each other in rapid succession, for the summer was a gay on?. Kitty and i young Mr. Mortimer were together almost I con.1 ustanlly. Somehow, Kitty fell into theljugsr having swallowed a sab: bit of expecting Rupert always, as her j brought into the Charitc Hospital I hal. ! special escort ; and he begau to Teel that no I one but him had a right to Kitty, and to be ' very jealous, when others attempted to pay ! her attentions. As yet, however, no words j of love had pase?d between them ; for Ru i pert now thoroughly etiamored, feared to ' ruin all by too premature an avowel ; espe J daily as, once or twice, when he had ven j tured to approach the subject, Kitty had j suddenly grown haughty and cold, j A hnal pic nic had been planned, to close i the season. It proved a great success. The day passed morrily on, until lunch-time. Rupert had made up his mind to have a qui.it ramble with Kitty, after this meal, and if things went well, to speak cf hie love. Rut he had counted without his j cost, for when luncheon was over, and he ' had got rid of his aunt. Mrs. Judge Stacy, ! who had called him to her side to wait oa t t.or. ! f Kittv had disappeared. Foil of ' jealous fears, and determined to find out who his rival was, he set forth through the j woods to discover Kitty. He had not gone ! far. before her favorite dog came bounding toward bins, jumping and barking, and manifesting the greatest delight at seeing him. But when Rupert stopped and looked wistfully at Rupert, and then rushed on j again. I port. 'Whit can ho mer.n ? ??!'-!

Mr. Mortimer.' she cried, -vith a little sob, 'how glad I am to see you. I began to think I would have to stay here all night alone. I've sprained my ankle, so 1 can't walk. What shrtU I do?' And she burst into tears. Our hero took both the IiUh hands, and held them tightly in his own, while he questioned her anxiously as to the acci dent, relating meantime how he came to find her. 'But how ?' exclaimed Kitty, ruefully, when he had done, 'how am I ever to get "back ? I don't believe I can walk a step.' Of course you can't. Who said you could?' cried Rupert. 'But you'll get back right, all the same, for I intend to carry you.' 'Carry me ! Kitty gave a little scream, and shrank back, and covered her face with both hands, for she felt the hot blood in her cheeks. 'Oh, no ! that will never do,' and she blundered o;u, unthinkingly. j .what win ,1,, say v, J r- . .. , But Rupert did not stop to reply to this i question. Very little cared he what dco- nl aid.

' At first, Kitty struggled a little, but the strong, manful arms held her close, and soou she began rather to like it, and to think it all very delightful. 'At any rate,' she said to herself, 'I can't help it ; he is too masterful to resist.' With this com forting conclusion, her faxr head sank on bis shoulder, and for the first time in her ' life Kitty knew what it was to be supreme ly happy. Rupert carried his lovely burdon to his own buggy, which stood apart from the crowd, and carefully placed Kitty in it. 'There- now,' he said, 'I shall take you home immediately, and stop for a doctor on the way. Nobody can drive you, with ohttle pain, ae I can. he added, seeing ' y o i she was about to object. 'Besides, you must begin to obey me, so as to get your hand in for you are going to be my wife, I you know. j 'Your wife !' cried Kitty She gave a j pout, and a toss of her head, but she blush- i ed, and not with anger either.
