Immediately Cured, and full vigor restored.
This distressing affection—which renders life
miserable and marriage impossible—is the pen
alty paid by the victims of improper indulgence.
Young persons are too apt to commit excesses
from not being aware of the dreadful conse
quences that may ensue. Now, who that un
derstands the subject will pretend to deny that
the power of procreation is lost sooner by those
falling into improper habits than by the pru
dent. Besides being deprived the pleasures of
healthy offspring, the, moat serious and destruc
tive symptoms to both body and mind arise.

DB. JOHNSON,
Member of the /3.0yal College of Surgeons, Lon
don, graduate from one of the most eminent
colleges in the United States, and the greater
part of whose life has been spent in the hospi
tals of London, Paris, Philadelphia and else
where, has effected some of the most astonishing
cures that were ever known ; many troubled
with ringing in the head and ears when asleep,
great nervousness, being alarmed at sudden
sounds, bashfulness, with frequent blushing,
attended sometimes with derangement of mind
wire =ad immediately.
These are some of the Bad and melancholy
effects produced by early habits of youth, viz :
weakness of the back and limbs, pains in the
head, dimness of sight, loss of muscular power,
palpitation of the heart, dyspepsia, nervous
irritability, symptoms of consumption,. Sire.
liburretts.—The fearful effects on the mind
are much to be dreaded—loss of memory, co.;
fusion, of idea!, depression • of spirits, evil fore
bodinge, aversion to society, self distrust, love
of solitude, timidity, &c., are some of the evils
produced.
YOUNG lifEN
Who have injured themselves by a certain
practice indulged in when alohe, a habit fre
quently learned from evil companions, - or at
school, the effects of which are nightly felt,
even when asleep, and if not cured renders
marriage impossible, and destroys both mind
and body, should apply immediately.
What a pity that a young man, the hope of
his country, the darling of hie parents, 'should
be snatched from all prospecta and enjoyments
of life, by the consequence of deviating from
the path of-nature and indulging in a certain
secret habit. Such perions muss, befom contem
plating
MARRIAGE,
Reflect that a sound mind and body are the
most necessary requisites to promote connubial
happiness. Indeed, without these, the journey
through life becomes a weary pilgrimage : the
prospect hourly darkens to the view
. ;
the mind
becomesahadowed with despair and filled with
the melancholy reflection that the happiness of
another becomes blighted with our own.
When the misguided and imprudent votary
of pleasure finds he has imbibed the seeds of
this painful disease, it too often happens that
an illtimed sense of shame or the dread of dis-•
oovery deters him from applying to those who,
from othication and resptctabillty, can alone
befriend him. He falls into the hands of igno
rant and designing pretenders, who, incapable
of curing, filch his pecuniary substance, keep
him trifling month after month, or as long as
the smallest fee can.be obtained, and in despair
leave him with ruiriedhealth to sigh over his
galling disappohatment; or by the use of the
deadly poison, Mercury, hasten the constitu
tional symptoms of this terrible disease, ouches
affections of the Head, Throat; 'Nose, Skin, etc.
progressing.with frightful 'rapidity till death
puts a period to his dreadful sufferings by send
ing him to that tundisoavered country from
whence no traveller returns.
INDORSEMENT Ole THE PRESS.
The many thousands cued at this institution
year after year, and the numerous important
surgical operations performed by Dr. Johnson,
witnessed by the reporters of the Sun, Clipper,
and many other papers, notiee' s of which have
appeared again and again before the public, be
eider hie standing as a gentleman of character
and responsibility, is a sufficient guarantee to
the afflicted.

DEATH OF REBEL GENERALS.
Arrest, of a Female Spy in Richmond,
We have received Richmond papers of Mon
day and Tuesday list. The most important
news they give'is contained in dispatches from
General Beauregard, announcing the fusions
bombardment cf Fort Wagner, Morris Island,
and a second unsuccessful assault upon the
Fort by our forces. It will be seen that the
fight took place on the 18th, and, that on the
21st the shelling of the Fort recommenced,'
showing that the attack liad.not been abandOn
ed. Tho Richmond Whig's statement that we
lost two thousand in the attack is undoubtedly
and' exag gerat
CHARLESTON ) July 18.— The Ironsides, five
Monitors; five gnu. and mortar boats, asaisted
by two laad.batteries mounting five guns, fired
furiously at Furt Wagner all day. One of our
gun carriages was dismounted.
Cuautssios, July l9.—After a furious both
bardment of eleven hours the enemy assaulted
Battery Wagner desperately and repeatedly.
our people fought desperately and repulsed the
attack with giant slaughter. Oar loos was re
latively light, but includes many valuable
officers. • '
"Brigadier General Taliafferro commanded
on our side. G T. BEAUREGARD."
"Cnasiossrort, July 22 ---The Richmond Whig
says: The enemy commenced shelling again
yesterday, with but few casualitles. We had
in the battle of the 18th instant about 150
killed and wounded. The enemy's loss, inclu •
ding prisoners, was about 2,000. Nearly 800
were buried under a flag of truce. Col. Putnam,
Act ng Brigadier General, and Colonel Shaw,
commanding the 'negro regiment, were killed."
The exact whereabouts of General Lela's
army seems, to be unknown to all:save the au
thority at Richmond. A report reached Lynth
burg, Sstarday; by, the Orange aud Alexandria
railroad that Illeadelaad crossed the Potomac at
Leesburg." If this be true, as is doubtless the
c se, It will necessitates change of
,movement
of our troops in the. Valley. It is stated that
Longstreet is already on the east side of the
Blue Ridge.
The victory gained by our cavalry at Bunker
Hill on Thursday, to which reit mile° is made
in the telegraphic department of to-day's Ex
press, is due to Fitzhugh's Lee's brigade which
is acid to have fought with unsurpassed gal
lantry.
The Central train to Richmond, Saturday
evening, brought down one hundred and e:ghty
Yankee officers, captured at Gettysburg.
' The death of Brigadier General Semmes,' of
Georgia, in conseq ience of a wound received at
Gettyriburg, is announced.,
Brigadier General Pettigrew, of North Caro
lina,a.died at 'Winchester, Thursday, from the
effects of wounds received at Gettysburg and
since.
Both were excellent officers, noble patriots,
and men of brilliant talents. Their services
will be greatly missed.
WYTHEVILLE RAIDERS CAPTURED
LYNCHBURG, July 24.—Passengers by the Ten
nessee train report that the Wytheville Yankee
raiders were Captured Monday at East River
Mountain, Mercer county, by the command of
Col. M.cCausland. A number of negros and
horses, captured by the Yankees, were recap
tured. About twenty houses were burned in
Wytheville, among them the office of the Dis
patch and fixtures.
Wnrcuserszt, July 21.—There is nothing new
from our army. All quiet. We have many
repOrts regarding the position of the Yankees;
butnothing• positive. It Is believed they hive
recrossed the Potomac, but in what force or to
wards what position they are making, is-un
known. Their movements are all known to
Gen. Lee, who is making arrangements accord
ingly.
It is rumored today that there has been a
riot in Philadelphia.
W.montersa, July 18.-1 was unable to get a
message through yesterday. All is quiet in the
army. Nothing from the enemy.'
There was heavy skirmishing on the 16th at
Shephardstown. The enemy attacked our cav

FROM RICHMOND.
IMPORTANT DISCLOSURI2- FRMALIE SPY-WIFE OF A
'N D .•1(
For some months past (says the Richmond
Sunday Morning Times) it has been a well ascer
tamed fact that there is in our midst, a spy who
enjoyed frequent opportunities of commianicit
big with the enemy, and of imparting informa
tion of a very important character to him. 'the
recent publication in the New York herald of
let'ers purporting to be written in the South,
ar , used the authorities of our governmenteano
consequently orders were given to have the
confederacy, especially the city of Richmond
scoured from one end to the other, in search of
the guilty parties.
Information reached Gen. Winder that sled)
in this city, Northern by biith, though the
wife of a wealthy cite n of Richmond, we
holding constant communication with the
enemies of the Confederacy, by letter, through
the blockade runners. M. asuree were at once
adopted to intercept one of these pistles for
the purpose of examining its contents. The
vigilaut detectives were not long in obtaining
0088eesion of two of these lettere. One was ad
dressed to a young lady in Yankeedom. bur
contained a letter to the . "Rev. Morgan Dix,"
who is the father of the notorious Yankee Gen
Dix. The other letter was aderessed to het
sister in Cincinnati: In her letter to her sister
she terms General Stoneman " a white gloved
general," meaning that be was "too easy and
timid with the rebels." She blames him for
not burning the residence and devastating the
farm of Secretary of War, Mr. Seddon, in
Goochland.
In a letter addressed to Dix, she gives the
names of two clergymen in New York and a
lady in Washington, whom she accuses of being
rebel sympathizers, and says they should be
arrested. In the same letter she speaks of the
mission of the Rev. Dr. Hoge to Europe—says
the report of his having gone to Earope to buy
Bibles is all g4mmon, and asserts that his busi
ness there is to exert his influence in behalf of
the South. She also tells when and bow be
will return, and conjures the Yankees to arrest
him by all means, and keep him in close con
finement during the war. -She also gives in the
same epistle the location of several farms on
James river which she says should be destroyed.
Tells where the Yankees can mount guns to
command several plantations, and expresses
the hope that all rebels may be "crushed
out." She concludes her letter by saying, that
"if the United States does not suppress the re
bellion, they do not merit the respect of the
world. •
Immediately upon the development of these
startling disclosures, a guard was sent to the
residence cii the Rev. Dr. Hoge, at whose house
the lady was temporarily residing, with instruc
tions to arrest and bring her before General
Winder. Finding that the dead body of a child
was then lyteg in the house, awaiting inter
tient, Gtn. Winder told his dicers not to break
in upon. the grief of the family, but to keep; a
vigilant watch over the lady, who was instruc
ted th consider hersilf under arrest.
After the burial of the child, a partial exam
ination of the case was held before Glen. Winder.
The lady denied the authorship of the letters,
but says they were given to a nAgro man to give
to her fur the purpose of having them sent
North. We are informed. however, that she
subsequently admitted having written one of
the letters. She was accordingly placed in
charge of the Sisters at the Asylum St. Francais
de Stves.
Knowing ones assert that the lady evidently
gave stoneman all the information which led to
the raid into Elomlaland and Fluvaona a short
time since.
It will be seen from the extract from the let
ter quoted above, that this young lady pray
for the arrest of Rev. Dr Hoge, at whose house
she was an intimate, thus betraying the co.-fi
deuce reposed in ht-r by the fa oily of the Rev.
Doctor. She remained there under the survAl
lance of a policeman, until it bi came disagree
able to Mrs. Hoge. when she was removed to
the Catholic Asylum named above.
Why this deference, this favoritism should
be shown to wealth, we are at a !cf.'s to con
ceive. Is an enemy of our country less an
enemy because he or she happens to be rich in
worldly goods,? If the lady in question is in
nocent of the above charges, why is she placen
in the hands of the good sisters of charity? If
sheds guilty, why is she not confined in the
place assigned fur the reception of persons wh
have given aid and comiort to the enemies of
our country's liberties? We ask again, why
this favoritism
