No Mercury or Nauseous Drugs, Dr. Johnson, Member of the Royal College of Surgeons, London, Grad uate from oue of the most eminent Colleges in the United States, sad the greater part of whose life has been spent in the hospitals 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, bashfulnees, with frequent blushing, attended sometimes with derangement of mind were cured immediately. Dr. J. addresses all those who have injured themselves by improper indulge ace and solitary - habits, which ruin both body and mind, unfitting them for either business, study, society or marriage. These are some of the sad and melancholly effects pro duced by early habits of youth. viz: Weakness of the Back and Limos, Pains in the Goad, Dimness a.f Sight, Lose of Muscular Nwer, Palpitation of the heart, Dys pepsy, Nervous Irratibil ty, Derangement of the Digestive Functions, General Debility, Symptoms of Consumption, DurreLsr.—The fearful effects on the mind are much to be dreaded—Loss of Memory, Confusion of Ideas, De pression of Spirits, Evil Forbodlogs, Avers on to. Society, Setf Distrust, lcive of holitude, Timidity , &c.., are some of the evils produced. Vlooassine of persons of all ages can now judge what Is tho cause of their declining health, losing their vigor, becoming weak, pale, nervous end emaciated, having a singular appearance atibutthe eyes, cough and symptoms of consumption. • Young Men Who have injured themselves by a certain practice In dulged In when alone, a habit frequently learned from evil companions, oral 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 ayoung man, the hope of his coun try, the darling of his parents, should be snatched from all prospects and enjoyments of life, by the eenrequence of deviating from the path of nature and indulging In a certain secret habit. Such persons slyer, before contem plating reflect theta sound mind and body are the most neces sary requisites to promote connubial happiness. Indeed, without these, the journey through Ilk becomes a weary pilgrimage ; the prospect hourly darkens to the view ; the mind becomes shadowed with despair and filled with the metancholly rall mien that the happiness of another becomes blighted with our own. When the mhguided and imprudent votary of pleasure finds that he has imbibes the seeds of this painful die ease, it too often tiepins that an tihtimed sense of shame or dread of discovery, deters him from applying to those who, irom e intuition and respectability, can alone be friend him, delaying till the constitutional symptoms on this borr dliesse make their appearance, such' as ul cerated sore throat, diseased nose, nocturnal pains in the head and limbs, dimness of sight, deathess, nodes on the shin bones and arms, blotches on the h ad, face and extremities, progressing with frightful rapidity, till at last the palate of the mouth or the bones of the nose fall is, and the victim of this awful disease become a horrid object of commiseration, till death puts a period to his dreadful sufferings, by sending h m to " that Urdiscov vered Country from whence no traveler returns." It Is a onelancholly fact that thousands fall - victims to this terrible disease, owing to the unskilfuliness of Igno •ant pretenders, who by the uae of that Deadly Poison, Mercury, ruin theconstitution and make the residue o hie miserable. Trust not your lives, or health, to the care of the many Unlearned and Worthless Pretenders, destainte of know ledge, name or chamier, who copy Dr. Johnson's adver vertisements, or style themselves in the newspapers, regularly Educated Physicians incapable or Curing, they keep you trifling mouth after mordn taking their finny and poisonousorss compounds, or as long as the smallest fee can be obtained, and in despair, leave you with ruin ed health to sigh over your galling disappointment.

The city of New Orleans and its environs with all its interior and exterior defences, hav • ing been surrendered to the combined naval and land forces of the United States, and being now in the occupation of 'the Einited States forces who have come to restore order, main tain the public tranquility, enforce peace and quiet under the laws and Constitution of the United States, the Major General command ing hereby proclaims the object and pur poses of the government in thus taking possession of New Orleans and the State of Louisiana, and the,rules and regulations by which the laws of the United States will for the present, during the state of war, be en forced and maintained for the plain guidance of all good citizens of the United States, as well as others who may heretofore have been in re bellion against their authority. Thrice before has the city of New Orleans been rescued from the hands of a foreign government, and a still more calamitous domestic insurrection by the money and arms of the United States. It has of late been under the military control of the rebel forces, and at each time, In the judgment of the commands of military forces holding it, it has been found necessary to pre serve order and quiet by the enforcement of martial law. Even during the interim trorn its evacuation by the rebel soldiers and its actual possession by the soldiers of the United States, the civil authority found it necessary to call for the intervention of an armed body, known as "the European Legion," to preserve the public tranquility. The Commanding General —therefore will cause the city to be governed, -until the resto ration of the United States atailherityeattithie further orders, by Martial Law. All persons is arms against the United States are required to surrender themselves with their arms, equipments and munitions of war. The body known as the European Legion, not being understood to be in' arms against the United States, but organized to protect the lives and property of citizens, are invited to still co-operate with the forces of the United States, and to that end will not be included in the terms of this order, but will report to these headquarters. All ensigns, flags and devices tending to up hold any authority whatever, save those of the United States Government and the foreign consulates, must not be exhibited, but sup pressed. The American ensign, the emblem of the United States, must be treated with the utmost respect and deference by all persons, under pain of severe punishment. " All persons well disposed towards the Gov ernment of the United States, who shall renew the oath of allegiance, will receive the safe guard and protection in their persons and property, of the armies of the United States, the violation of which is punishable by death. All persons holding allegiance to the confed erate States will be deemed rebels against the United States, and regarded and treated as enemies thereof. All foreigners not naturalized, and claiming allegiance to their respective governments, and not having made the oath of allegiance to the government of the confederate States, will be protected in their persons and property as here toforo under the laws of the United States. All person who may heretofore have given their adhesion to the supposed Government of the Confederate States, or been in their service who shall ley down and deliver up their arms and return to their peaceful occupations and preserve quiet and order, holding no further correspondence nor giving aid and comfort to the enemies of the United States, will not be disturbed iu their person or property, except so far, under the orders of the Commanding General, as the exigencies of the public service may render necessary. The keepers of all public property, whether State, National or Confederate, such as collec tions of art, libraries, museums, as well as all public buildings, all munitions of war, all armed vessels, will at once make full return thereof to these headquarters. All manufacturers of arms and munitions of war will report to these headquarters their kind and places of business. All rights of property, of whatever kind,. will be held inviolate, subject only to the law of the United States. All the inhabitants are enjoined to pursue their usual avocatioru3. All the shops and places of amusement are to be kept open in the accustomed manner, and services will be held in churches and other religious houses, as in time of profound peace. The housekeepers of all public houses, coffee houses and drinking saloons, are to report their names and number to the office of the Provost Marshal, and will there receive license, and be held responsible for all disorders or distur bances of the peace arising in their respective places. A sufficient force will be kept in the city to preserve order and maintain the laws. The killing of American soldiers by any die. orderly persons or mob, is simply as.issination and murder, and not war, and will be so re garded and punished. The owners of any house in which such murder shall be commit ted, will be held responsible therefor, and the house be liable to be destroyed by the military authority. All disorders and disturbances of the peace and crimes of an aggravated nature, interfer ing with the forces or laws of the United States, will be referred to the Military Conrt for trial. The punishment of other misdemeanors will be subject,,to municipal authoritytw , it chooses to Civil causes between parties will be referred to.the ordintiry tribunals. PRICE ONE CENT The levy and collection of taxes, save those imposed by the laws of the United States, are suppressed, except thole for keeping in repair and lighting the streets, and for sanitary pur poses. Thete are to be collected in the usual manner. The circulation of Confederate bonds, evi dences of debts, except notes in similitude of bank notes, issued by the Confederate States or scrip, or any trade in the same, is for bidden. It has been represented to the Commanding General by the civil authorities that these Confederate notes, in the form of bank notes, are in a great measure the only substitutes for money which the people have been allowed to have, and that great distress would ensue among the poorer classes, if the circulation of such notes was suppressed. Such circulation will be permitted so long as they can be inconsiderate enough to receive them, until further orders. No publication by newspapers, pamphlet or handbill, giving accounts of the movements of the soldiers.of, the United States within this Department, reflecting in any way upon the United States, or tending in any way to influ ence the public mind against the Government of the United States, will be permitted, and all articles of war news or editorial comments, or correspondence m%knag comments upon move ments of the army of the United States, mast be submitted to the examination of an officer, who will be detailed for that purpose from these Headquarters. The transmission of all Manliunicatione by telegraph will be under charge of an officer from these Headquarters. The armies of the Unlte.i. States came here, not to destroy but to make good, to- restore order out of chaos, and the government of the laws, in place of the passions of men. To this end, therefore, the efforts of all well disposed persons are invited to have every species of dis order quelled, and If any soldiers of the United States should so forget their duty to their flag as tl commit outrage upon any person or prop erty, the Commanding General requests that his name be Instantly reported to the Provost Guard, so that he may be punished, and his wrongful act redressed.
