—those mesa and solitary prackcas more fatal to their
victims than the song of yrens to the Mariners of Ulys
ses, blighting their most brilliant hopes or anticipations,
rendering marriage, &c., impossible.
Young Men
Especially, who have become the [victims of Solitary
Vice, that dreadful and destructive habit which annual
ly sweeps to an untimely grave thousands of Young
Men of the most exalted talents and brilliant intellect,
wbo might otherwise have entranced listening Senates
with the thunders of eloquence or waked to ecstasy the
living lyre, may call with full confidence.
Marriage.
Married Persons, or Young Men contemplating mar
riage, being aware of physical weakness, organic debili
ty, deformities, &0., speedily cured.
He who places himself under the care of Dr. J. may
religiously confide in his honor as a gentleman, and con
fidently rely upon his skill as a Physician.
Organic Weakness
•
immediately Cured, and fall vigor Restored.
This distressing affection—which renders I ife misera
ble and marriage impossible—ls the penalty paid hy the
victims of improper indulgences. Young persons are too
apt to commit excesses from not being aware of the
dreadful ooneequences that may ensue. New, who that
understands the subject will preload to deny that the pow
er of procreation is lost sooner by those falling into im
proper habits than by the prudent? Besides being' de
prived the pleasures of healthy offspring, the most se
rious and destructive symptoms to both body and mind
arise. The system becomes deranged, the Physical and
Mental Functions Weakened, Loss of Procreative Power,
Nervious Irratibliity, Dyspepsia, Palpitation of the Heart,

Dr. Johnson,
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons, London, Grad
uate from oue of the most eminent Colleges in the United i
States, and the greater part of whose due has been spout '
in the hospitals of London, Paris, Philadelphia and else
where, has effected some of the most astonishing surer
that were ever known ; many troubled with ringing In
the bead anti ears when sweep, great nervousness, being
alarmed' at sudden sounds, bashfulness, with frequent
blushing, attended sometimes with derangement of mind
were cured immediately.
Take Particular . Notice.
Dr. I. addresses all those who have injured themselves
by Improper Indulge uce 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 metaucholly effects pro
ducted by early habits of youth, viz : Weakness of the
Beek and Limbs, Pales in the Head, Dimness of Sight,
Less of Muscular Power, Palpitation of the heart, Dye
-
popsy Nervous Irratibli ty, Derangement: of the Digestive
Functions, General Debility, Symptoms of Coneumption,
&c.
Arzau.s.—The fearful effects on the mind are much
to be dreaded—Loss of Memory, therdealon of Ideas, De
pression of Spirits, Evil Forbodings, Avers'on to Society,
Self Distrust, Love of holitude, Timidity, &c., are some of
the evils produced.
Prenatal of persons of all ages can now judge what
Is the cause of their declining health, losing their vigor,
becoming weak, pale, nervous and emaciated, having a
singular appearance about the eyes, cough sad symptoms
of eonsumption.
Young Men
WhO hate injured themselves by a certain practice in
dniged In when alone, a habit frequently learned from
evil companions, or at school, the °nets 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 yoang man, 'the hope of his' wan
, the darling of his parents, should be snatched from
prospects and eejoymenta of Bib, by the consequence
of deviating from the path of nature and indulging in a
certain secret habit. Spch persons Hoer, before contem
plating
Mainage,.
reflect theta sound mind and body are the most neces
sary requisites to promote connubial happiness. Indeed,
without these, the journey through life becomes a weary
pilgrimage ; the prospect hourly darkens to the view
the mineLbecomes shadowed with despair and filled with
the melaneholly reflection that the happiness of another
becomes blighted with our own.
Disease of Imprudence.
When the misguided and Imprudent votary of pleasure
finds that he has imbibed the seeds of this pantiel dis
ease, it too often hapens that an di-timed sense of shame
or dread of discovery, deters him from applying to those
who, from emotion and respectability, can- alone be-.
friend him, delaying till the constitutional symptoms oil
this borr d disease make their appearance, such as ul
cerated sore throat, diseased , nose, nocturnal pains in
the head and limbs, dimness f sight, deatness, nodes on
the shin bones and arms, blotches on the h-ad, face and
extremities, progressing with trightfhl rapidity, till at
last the palate of the mouth or the bones of the nose fall
in, and the victim of this awful disease become a horrid
object of commiseration, till death puts a period to his
dreatfa l sufferings, by sending him to ti that Urdiscov
vered Country from whence no traveler returns."
It is a aulancholly fact that thousands fall victims to
this terrible disease, owing to the unakilfullness of igno
rant pretenders, who by the use of that Deadly Pois on,
Mating, ruin the constitution and make the residue o
life miserable.
Strangers.
Trust not year lives, or health, to the care of the many
Unlearned and Worthless Pretenders, destitute of know
ledge, name or character, who copy Dr. Johnson's adver
vertisemente, or style themselven in the newspapers,
regularly gducated Physicians incapable of Curing,they
keep you trifling month alter month taking their filthy
and poleonousness compounds, or as long as the smallest
tea can be obtained, and in despair, leave you with ruin
ed health to sigh over your galling disappointment.

DESTRUCTION OF COTTON AT
1:113
A special dispatch from Fort Wright at noon
yesterday, says the rebel tug this morning
rounded the point to reconnoitre. Everything
seems to indicate a renewal of activity. Both
sides were expecting an attack momentarily.
A deserter came on board the, flag boat,
Benton, yesterday, states that the rebel ram
in the engagement on Saturday was not sunk
atreported, but was horribly shattered. Our
gunners undoubtedly fired most of their shots
above the water line,
.and they struck where
the ram waa heavily plated.
Experienced naval men are of the opinion
that had the same number of shots been fired
at the water line or below, they would have
sent every rebel craft to the bottom.
~The deserter reported the fleet as laying
off the Fort busily engaged in repairing, dama
ges, promising faithfully to return in exactly
forty-eight hours.
M. W., Middletown
It is not expected that an attack would be
made on the enemy's position for several days.
Our Beige guns are not in position. •
Gen. Halleck is still advancing cautiously,
carefully fortifying as he advances. All his
movements predicated on the supposition that
the enemy is in large force at Corinth, and that
he intends making a stand.
Grand Junction is being fortified by Beaure
gard with the evident intention of falling back
there if beaten at Corinth. Thu number of the
enemy's troops is estimated at Halleck's head
quarters from one hundred and twenty to one
hundred and seventy thousand.
The Memphis . papers of the 11th recetted,
contain a dispatch from Natchez, and states
that the Federal fleet had retinxied to New
Orleans.
The Appeal commenting upon the growing
dispositien on the part of the citizens to refuse
confederate notes and Obaracterimm the parties
as traitors. •
The mune journal says the, only condition
upon which the South will accept peace is the
recognition of the independence, not only of
the cotton States, but of every border State
whose people desire allegiance with the confed
eracy.
The following dispatches were taken from the
AP &l . Provost Marshal of Memphis has order
ed the arrest of all persons refusing to take
confederate money in payment for goods,
The Appeal of the 11th says : "We have
certain intelligence that Halleck lost over 6,000
men by desertion; the country between the
Tennessee river and Kentucky being full of
them. The whole of the 40th Ohio deserted
and disbanded after the battle of the 7th.—
Numbers of Kentuckians and Missourians fol
lowed their example, in consequence of disaf
fection, produced by the late anti-slavery move
ments in Congress.
The 'report brought from Little Rock is that
Gen. Curtis' division of the Federal army have
commenced to march upon the capital of Ar
kansas.
Gen.' Steele is marching to the same point
from Fooohontas.
The following official dispatcher' have been
published :
Durum, Ark., May 10.—The enemy are re
ported to have been at Augusta, Jackson coun
ty. They took possession of all the cotton in
the neighborhood. They are reported to be in
considerable force at Jacksonport and Batesville.
Their destination is unknown. It is reported
to le eight or ten thousand strong. Seventeen
hundred bales of cotton were burned here to
day.
&ice the terrible thrashing' administered to
Pope's command, yesterday, by Price and Van
Dom, we have had no further. demonstration.
Matters are accordingly quiet this morning.
The following characteristic message from
Jeff Thompson is published.
Foss Warms, May 10.—We, Missourians,
cl
conuded to celebrate the anniversary of the
Camp Jackson massacre. We have shown the
enemy that we still own Mississippi, and can
run the blockade whenever we choose. We
gave them a few bullets this morning to show
them our power. After a handsome skirmish
of thirty minutes, we backed down the river,
with two killed and eight slightly wounded.
Our officers are all safe, and our gunboats un
injured. All, from Commodore down to pow
der boy, behaved like soldiers. The Appeal
publishes this dispatch without comment.

for the North. An adequate force is still here,
however, for operations in this direction. Our
'advance, uoder Gen. Osterhaus, crossed White
river on the Bth and took the road to Little
Rock, the capital of the State.
As many as one hundred and fifty persons
per. day have come forward and taken the oath
of allegiance, embracing judges, ministers and
many of the most influential citizens. The
sentiment of the people is rapidly becoming
more and more loyal.
News of our occupation of this place was re
ceived by Gov. Rector at Little Bock, on the sth
and produced great excitement. Some of the
citizens advised peace, while others were rain;

SENATE.
The Indian appropriation bill was taken up,
and, after its consideration and amendment,
the Senate went into executive session and sub
sequently adjourned. '
HOUSE OF REPItiIiiENTATIVES.
Mr. CALTERT offered the following: Provided
that no portion of the appropriation in this
bill shall be applied to keeping, supporting or
equipping negroes or fugitive slaves for service
in the army of the United States.

Mr. &muss, (Pa.) for reasons which he stated,
hoped that this would be voted down.

War Department for information on the subject
but received no answer. He had learned that
slaves when they wanted to return to their
masters had been restrained from so doing by
military authority. 'Eight slaves had teen
killed or shot by military order while trying
to escape from the control of the military au
thorities.
Mr. CALVIRT'S proposition waa rejected.
