DR. JOHNSON,
BALTIMORE
LOCK - HOSPITAL,
XiAS discovered the most. certain, speedy
and effectual remedies in the world for
DISEASES OF IMPRUDENCE
RELIEF IN SU.' TO :TWELVE
NO MERCURY OR NOXIOUS DRUGS
A Care Warranted, or No Charge, in from One
to Two Days
Vealatesr , of the Back, Affections of the Kidneys and
Bladder,_lnvoluntary Discharges, Impote,pcy, General De
bility, ::s.ervousness, Dyspepsia, Languor, Low Spirits,
Confusion of Ideas, Palpitation. of the Heart, Validity,
Tremblings, Dimness of Sight or Giddiness, Disease of the
Head. Throat, Nose or Skin, Affections of the Liver,
Lungs, Stomach or Bowels—those terrible disorders
arising from the Solitary Habits of Youth—those secret
and solitary practices more fatal to their victims than the
song of Syrens to the Mariners of Ulysses, blighting their
most brilliant hopes or anticipations, rendering marriage,
&a., Impossible. , .
YOUNG MEN
Especially, who have become the victims of Solitary Vice,
that dreadful and destructive-habit , which annually sweeps
to no untimely' grave thousands of Young Men of. the
most exalted talents and brilliant intellect, who might
otherwise have entranced listening Senates with the . thun ,
dere of eloquence or waked to ectesy the living lyre, may
call with fall confidence,.
MARRIAGE
tilavied persots, Ydung Men contemplating. marriage,
being aware of philikia. weakness, organic debility, defor
mities, &c., speedily otrod.
He who places himself Wider the care of Dr. J. may re
ligiously confide in his honor as a gentleman, and confi
dently rely upon his skill-as a Physician.
ORGANIC WEAKNESS
Immediately cured, and full vigor restored.
This distressing affection—which renders life miserable
and marriage impossible--is the penalty paid . by the c
t imrof improper indulgence. . Young persons are he apt
to commit excesses from not being aware of the dreadful
consequences that may ensue. Now, who that..-under
stands the subject will pretend to deny, that the power of
procreation is lost sooner by those falling. Into. improper
habits than by the prudent. Besides being deprived the
pleasures of healthy offspring, the most serious and de
structive symptoms to both body and tnind arias.
The system becomes deranged, the physical and ''mental
functions weakened 7 loss of procreative pciwer, ,nervous
irritability, dyspepsia, palpitation of the heart, indigestion,
constitutional debility, a wasting of the frame, cc‘igh, con
sumption, decay and ddath.

uate from one of the most eminent colleges in the United
&lima and the greater part of whose life has been spent
in the hospitals of London, Paris.„Philadelphia and else
where, has effected esme 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
were cured immediately.
TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE
Thase.are some of the sad and melancholy effects. pro
.duced 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, ner
vous irritability, symptoms of consumption, O.
MECFALLY.—The fearful effeCts on the mind are much
io be dreaded—loss of memory, confusion of ideas,.., de
pression of spirits, evil forebodings, aversion to society,
self distrust, love of solitude, timidity, &c., are some of
the evils produced.
YOUNG 'IA;,EN
Who have injured themselves by a certain practice in
dulged in when alone, a habit frequently learned frog&
evil companions, or at school, the effects of which are
nightly felt, even when alleep, and if not aired renders
marriage .a jos sible, and destroys both mind and body,
should tj Hq, mmediately.
What t het a young man, the hopeof his.coutury,
the darling of his perentS, should be snatched from all
prospects and enjoyments of life, by the consequence of
deviating from the path of nature and indulging a
certain' secret habit sUch persons limn, before contens-
MARRIAGE,
Reflect that a sauud mind and body arc the most necessary
requisites to promote connubial happiness. Indeed,with
out these, the journey through life becomes a weary pd.*
grimage ; the prospect hourly darkens to the view the
mind becomes shadowed with despair and.filled with the
melancholy reflection that•the happiness of another ,be
comes blighted with our own.
DISEASE OF IM:PRIJDENCE

Ands he has iinbibeil the seeds of this painful disease, it
too often happens that. an 'Minted sense of shame or the
dread of discovery deters Min from applying to those who

He falls into - the hands of ignorant and designing pretend
ers, who; inCapable of curing, filch his pecuniary' sub

the smallest fee can be obtained, and 'hi despair leave him
With ruined health to sigh over hisgalling disappointment,

The Capture of the Titan.
WASHINGTON, ]ffiH'ell 9
The Star has the following: The steamer
Paltimore arrived here yesterday from Plank
stank, whither she went on Saturday to head
off, if possible, the tug Titan, captured near
Cherrystone Point.
The Titan, in amp of a Confederate raid
ing party, vras discovered about 4 o'clock on
Saturday afterpon ktlowly hugging the shore,
but on reaching the mouth of the Piankataxik
she increased her speed and traveled up the
stream.
One of the federal gunboats, the Tulip, was
immediately dispatched after her, but she
escaped, as the Tulip, on account of shallow
water, was not able to follow her.
The Titan was taken to a place called Free- .
port, where she was burned by the rebels on
Idonday morning, after her machinery had
been taken out.
The goods were removed to this place on
Monday, and some of her captors were about
to have an auction sale, but the gunboats
making their appearance the goods were hast

The officers of the Baltimore learned in the
Fiankatank tliat the raiders were led by Lieu

For the same reason that the Tulip was un
able to overhaul the Titan, the boats of the

Nkw Youx, March 9. - -The steamer Bavaria
arriired this morning. Her advices have been
anticipated.
• The London Morning Advertiser states that
not ;only has the channel squadron been re
,called from Lisbon, but the Admiral is under
,orders to proceed forthwith to the Baltic, in
;order to be prepared not only for possible,
"but probable eventualities.
ThelAduertiser further states that the Gov
ernment has resolved that rather than that
Denmys proper shall suffer the loss of any
territories, to employ the logic of our naval
force to any extent which circumstances may
render necessary..
The Post says the language of Lord Pal
merston last night, in reference to a peace be
tween the present belligerents, is a remote
contingency, while war is a certainty.
The Post thinks the prospect of assembling
a conference, psndinghostilities, is one which,
':ven
_Lt„..tealized, can never be productive of
satisfactOry results.
Lowooic 26.—Thr Paris Constitutional-re
lative to the proposed conference, says France
would gladly hope for success, but it is doubt
ful if the Denmark and German confederation
will accede.
The article of -the London Post says,
private advices from Paris, upon which we
believe _reliance can be placed, again allude
to the negotiation now in progress prepara
tory to the recognition of .the Confederate
States by the French government, although
any official acknowledgement of the fact
would at this moment be thought premature
and undesirable.
'A steam ram, nearly as large as the Hector,
built for the Danish Government, has been
launched on the Clyde.
The Times city article says the applications
at the Bank yesterday at the reduced rate,
were still of moderate amount, although more
numerous than those of Wednesday. - At
present the tendency in the supply of money
seems towards .a further fall, but there are
apparently more who- are so sanguine as to
to expect, under any circumstances, that the
rate can go permanently below five per cent.,
even supposing that the harvest prospects for
the year should again prove favorable.

ry. Kernan (N. Y.) offered a preamble set
ting forth that
Whereas, Th 9. law exempts United . States
bonds from taxation, thus enabling corpora
tion% and individuals to withdraw a. large
amount of personal estate from taxation, and
escaping the first share of burdens, which are
thrown chiefly on real estate; therefore,
Resolved, That the Committee on Ways and
Means be instructed to inquire into the expe
diency of so changing the law as not to ex
empt such bonds from State and municipal
taxation. ,

Mr. M'Clurg, in reviewing his colleagues,

licious, and supported only by falsehood. He
also spoke of them as renegades and turn
coats.,

Mr. Farnsworth, e 115.,) from the Commit-.
tee on Military Affairs, reported back sundry
memorials and resolutions to reimburse
soldiers for the clothing lost or de
stroyed, while on the march or in bat
tle, and asked to be discharged from
their consideration, on the ground that the
law of July, 1862, authorizes the Secretary of
War to furnish clothing to trio sick and wound
ed and other soldiers, who have lost the same
by the casualties of war, and therefore no fur
ther legislation was necessary.
The report was recommitted to the Com

Mr. Garfield, (Ohio,) from the Committee
on Military Affairs, reported back, with an
amendment, the Senate joint resolution
of thanks to Maj. Gen. Thomas and the offi
