What a pity that s joung man. the hope of his country, the darling of his parents, .'hould be nulched from all prospects and enjoyments of life, by the consequence of deviating from .'he path of nature and lndulgitig in a certain secret habit. Such rer'or.s Ml'ST before contemnlat ing MARRIAGE, retlf i t that a sound mind and body arc the moJ ureci-sary requisites to promote connubial happi ness. Indeed without these, the journey through life beeumes a weary pilgrimage; the prospect hourly darkens to the view; the mind becomes tiadowed with despair and tilled with the melan choly reflection, that the happincas of another become blighted with our own. A CERTAIN DISEAbE. When the misguided and imprudent votary of pleasure finds that he has imbibed the seeds of this painful disease, it too ofteu happens that an Rl-timed sense of shame, or dread of discovery, deters him from applying to those who, from education and respectability, can alone befriend him, delaying till the constitutional symptoms of this horrid disease make their appearance, such as ulcerated tore throat, diseased nose, noetural pains in the head and limbs, dimness of sight, deafness, nodes on the shin bones and arms, blotches on the head, face and extremities, pro gressing with frightful rapidity, till at last the palate of the mouth or the bones of the nose fall I iii rwl M,e vietim f tbis awful disease Ueeomes . :. ... ; . r .J..r..f.., till ,i.. .ti. i,i. a p riod to his dreadful suffering, by (.ending hiiu to "that Undiscovered Count v from wis no traveller returns." Il is a melancholy fact that tliou-an l HIE Tietims to this terrible disease, through falling iuto the hands of Iirnorant or unskillful PP.E '1 ENDERS, who, by the use of that deadly Poi son, Mercury, &c, destroy the constitution, and incapable of curing, keep the utibappv suflerer month aff?r month taking their 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 Heaith to -irli .v -r his galling disappointment. To such, therefore, Dr. Johnston pledges him self to preserve the most Inviolable Seereev, and from his extensive practice aud observations in the reat Hospitals of Europe, and the first in this country, viz: Fnglaud, France, Philadelphia and elsewhere, is enabled to otTer the most cer tain, speedy and effectual remedy iu the world for al! diseases of imprudence.

His table was thickly strewn with old books, and engravings, some oi the former lying ; open, ethers with numerous slips of paper : sticking out from the leaves to mark certain places: for he was writing a hintory of the , drama backwards, taking the nineteenth century first, aud then goiug to the cigh- , teenth : and as he had accumulated enough j manuscript lor two octavo volumes without ! reaching Ceorgo the Third's reign, and , proposed to get as close to the flood as he j could, it threatened to be a voluminous, exhaustive aud costly work. Fortunately, j however, he never dreamed of its paying. i lr was a bachelor with a fair income, rid- i ing his hobby horse, and it was cheaper man a inorou"nnred. or even a bad.

'She wouldn't give her name,' replied the girl. 'Ask her, tell her" he began, but the entrance of the visitor in question, closely veiled, cut his directions short. He rose and hurried forward to oiler a i chair, eo disclosing a limp. ! Directly they were alone she raised her veil ; the man litteral'y staggered back, and caught hold of the table for support. .'Hush !' said the lady, phicicg her finger 1 on her lip as she went back to the door, 1 ! which she opened.
