Organio Weakness

This distressing Affectlon—wtdch renders life misera

victims of Improper, indulgences. Young persons - are too
apt to commit excesses from not being aware of the
dreadful oonseq.ences that may ensue. New, who that

that were ever known ; many troubled with ringing in
the head and ears when asleep, great nervousness, being
alarmed at sudden sounds, bashPainess, with frequent
blushing, attended sometimes with derangement of mind

Take Particular Notice
Dr. J. addresses all those who have injured themselves
by improper indulge.ce and solitary habits, which ruin
both body and mind, unfitting them for either business,
study, moiety or marriage. '
These are some of the sad and melancholly effects pro •
dosed by early habits of youth, via : Weakness of the
Back and Limbs, Pains in the Head, Dimness of Sight,
Loss of Muscular Power, Palpitation of the heart, Dye
pepsy Nervous IrratibiLty, Derangement of theDlgesUve

to be dreaded—loss of Memory, Confualon of Ideas, De
pression of Spirits, Evil Forbodings, Avers'on to Society,
Self Distrust, Love of Solitude, Timidity, an., are some of
the evils produced.
PsOrsissina of personsof 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 and symptoms
of consumption.
Young Men
Who have injured themselves by a certain practice I n
dulged In when alone, a habit frequently learned from
evil companions, or at school, the erects of which are
nightly felt, even when asleep, and it not eared renders
marriage impossible, and destroys both mind end body,
should apply immediately.
What a pity that &young man, the hope of his coun
try, the darling of his parents, should be snatched lrom
all prospects and enjoyments of life, by the consequence
of deviating from the path of nature and indulging in a
certain secret habit. Such persons mum, betore contem

reflect that a gland mind and body are theEmost neces

without these, the journey through life becomes a weary
pilgrimage ; the prospect hourly darkens to the with
t h em e mind.becomes shadowed with despair and lined
the melanoholly reflection that the happiness of another
becomes blighted with our own.
Disease of Imprudence.
When the misguided and 'lmprudent votary of pleasure
finds that he has imbibed the seeds of this painful dis
ease, it too often hapens that an tit-timed sense of shame
or dread of discovery, deters him from applying to those
who, from oiuoation and respectability, can alone be
friend him, delaying tilt the constitutional symptoms on
this borr d disease make their appearance, such as ul
cerated core throat, diseased nose, nocturnal pains in
the head and limbs, dimness of sight, deafness, nodes on
the shin bones and arms, blotches on the brad, face and
extremities, progressing with frightful 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
dreadful sufferings, by sending him to that usdmesv.
lured Country from whence no traveler returns."
It is a stetanchotly fact that thousands fall victims to
this terrible disease, owing to the unskilfulness of igno
rant presenders, who by the use of that Deadly PefsOn,
Mercury, ruin the constitution and make the residue o
ate miserable.

WASHINGTON, Jane 19
The Poet-office department has concluded, an
arrangement with the Hamburg, Bremen and
Liverpool lines of trans-Atlantic steamers, by
which the fastest steamers of each of those
lines are accepted for the United States mail
service throughout the year, thus securing
a fast steamer for the conveyance of the
mails on each United States sailing days, viz :
On Saturdays from New York, and on Wednes
days from Southampton or Liverpool. \ This ar
rangement so long desired by the Departnient
will give increased efficiency to the United
States mail service, and prove of great advan
tage to the commercial interest of this country
and Europe.
The Post Office Department re-opened to
day—the post office at BeaufOrt, N. O. being
the first post office regularly're-establishes since
the occupation of that place by the United
Statea forces.
According to a ganeral order just published,
furloughs will not be given by captains of com
panies or a furlough from such authority will
not relieve a soldier from charge of desertion.
Enlisted men absent from their regiments
without proper authority, are in fact deserters,
and not only forfeit all pay and allowances,
but are subject to penalties awarded by law to
such offenders.
No plea of sickness or other cause not official
ly established and no certificate of a physician in
civil life, unless it be approved by some officers
acting as a military commander, will hereafter
avail to remove the charge of desertion or pro
cure the arrears' of pay when a soldier has
been mustered as absent from his regiment
with leave.
FROM MANASSAS.
The rebel mail carrier, Granville W. Kelly,
who was captured day before yesterday, proves
to be a man of considerable importance. He
is the owner of a large flour mill, cloth factory,
and plantation near Culpepper, and since the
rebellion has been constantly at work foe the
rebel Confederacy.
He says the rebel Government is largely in
debted to him, and the $lO,OOO in Confederate
bonds found upon his person were taken in
part payment of the debt.
Two deserters who were formerly from the
North, but impressed into the rebel service, at
New Orleans, same within our lines this morn
ing. They have been under Jackson, but
could give no Information of any value to the
Commanding General, and were accordingly
allowed to go at large.
XXXVIIth Congress—First Session

The Pacific railroad bill being the special or
der was taken up.
Mr. COLIAKIEB:I3 amendment providing for

The House then proceeded to the considera
tion of the bill relating to claims for the loss
and destruction of property belonging to loyal
citizens and the damage done thereto by the
troops of the United States during the present
rebellion.
Mr. Wimumm, (M 0.,) spoke of the import
ance of this measure, and of the losses sus
tained by citizens of border States, which
necessarily succeeded their occupation by
our troops, whose animals must have forage
and whose . forests had to be cut down
for fuel and buildings ocupied as quarters.
While the loyal people do not complain, they
look to Government for speedy redress, which is
their right.
Mr. VVerroN, (Ohio,) and others spoke on the
question. Adjourned.

HORRIBLN—FORTY Hex SINGULARLY POLSoNZD
OR Dissasits—Sume thirty boatmen yesterday
morning called at the office of the Board of
Health for medical treatment. They had just
arrived in a steamer from up the river, and had
been dreadfully poisoned or diseased through
handling certain bags of wheat. All who had
been engaged iu stowing the wheat on board,
and two or three persons who had simply eat
for a short time on the sacks, were affected with
large and highly inflamed welts running all over
the body. Dr. Grinsteed, the health clerk, was
inclined to attribute the distemper to the prey
alence"of " black rot" in the wheat—cereals
occasionally becoming infested with a species
of terrible prolific amimaleure that disseminate
themselVes at once by contact, and whose pres
ence in grain is popularly designated as the
"black rot." Some ten others, besides those
who visited the health office, were similarly
afflicted. Dr. G. instantly furnished the party
with appropriate medicine, and gave such ad
vice as he deemed proper in the case. Au
opinion among the patients was that the bags
had been purposely poisoned, to prevent ante
from eating the grain. This appears incredible.
Another hypothesis is that the sacks had been
in contact with a certain peculiar and poisonous
species of oak. ft strikes us that these sick
ones should have the freight complained of,
and the vessel concerned ought to receive care
ful and close attention. Certainly steps should
at least be taken to prevent others from suffer
ing through handling the noxious sacks of
grain. We cannot learn that even the name of
the steamer is known to the health authorities.

McCram...a on Datiamunises. Gen. McClellan
sent back, some time since, as not satisfactory,
the finding of a court martial, with the follow
ing pointed, just and timely admonitions:
"The testimony in this case exhibits a most
disgraceful state of things. At officer receives
from 'a friend' in a neighboring city a case of
liquors. The arrival of this mischeivous box
in camp is the signal and the occasion of a
moat blameable breach of discipline. It seems
that all the acquaintances, officers and men, of
thh recipient, were called in to partake of this
most pernicious gift, which if it had been sent
by an enemy, could not have been more perfect
ly adapted to work injury to the regiment
From drunkenness, brought on from drinking
in this assemblage, proceeded the glaringly in
subordinate conduct of the prisoner.
This was no palliation of his offence, but an
addition to it. No one evil agent so much ob
structs this army in its progress to that condl•
tion which will enable it to accomplish all that
true soldiers can, as the degrading vice of
drunkenness. It is the cause of by far the
greater part of the disorders which are exam
ined by our courts martial. It is impossible to
estimate the benefits that would accrue to the
service from the adoption of a resolution on the
part of the officers to set their men an exam
ple of total ablvinence from intoxicating drink.
It would be worth fifty thousand men to the
armies of the United States."

AN Arszorma Sossa.—The Chicago Times in
noticing the visit of the Baltimore excursion
top Chase, where some eight thousand
Rebel prisoners are confined, says :
A-thrilling incident also occurred there,being
the meeting of a father—one of the Baltimo
reans—Mr. Shutze, with his son, now a prisoner
of war in the camp, who was taken at the fall,
of Donelson. They had parted two years pre- ,
viously, at which time young Shutze had left
his home for Alabama, to obtain employment.
As he states, he was there impressed into the
Confederate service, soon after the breakingout
of the war, and taken prisoner as above men
tioned. Shortly after his arrival at Camp
Douglas he informed his father by letter of his
situation, and a regular correspondence has
since been maintained between them. Mr.
Shutze is a boot and shoe manufacturer in Bal
timore, and firm in his devotion to the Union.
He has no doubt of his son's loyalty, and has
for some time been using active exertions to
obtain his release. The meeting, though not
unexpected, was yet a very affecting one, both
bursting into tears as they fo!dly embraced
each other.
AN Lamm]No " relic" was found a few days
since, over at the terminus of the Pontchar
train railroad, at the lake. It was discovered
and iaised by Col. Chas. C. G. Thornton, com
manding the guard at that point, and Capt.
George Wiggin, late of New London, at pres
ent Captain of the post at the lake. The relic
is a submarine ram, of cigar shape, made of
iron, hollowed so that a number of men can
enclose themselves in it. It is twenty-four
feet long, and has a propeller which can be
worked by hand. On each side of the ram
there is a sort of fin made of iron, three feet
long and a foot and a half wide. By raising
these wings, or tins, the ram rises to the sur
face and sinks by their depression. The bow
is sharply pointed, and when run against any
ordinary vessel below the water mark, would
be able to sink in it in a very short time. This
" little arrangement" now lies at the lake
shore—a curiosity to the visitors at that place.
Captain Thornton is doing good service at the
lake, in intercepting contraband letters and
arresting spies.
Cones FROM A Nsw tioaacs.—We have heard
of late some stir about a species of cotton be
ing produced this season, by what is known in
common phraze as the " Balm-of-Gilead tree."
A friend has just exhibited to us a specimen
taken from a tree. The "cotton" seems to
grow upon a sort of pod ; is of very fine texture,
but fibre quite short. Wether it can be manu
factured into thread ant cloth, is yet to be
tried, as far as we know. It would doubtless
answer for some uses the real article is now
put to. What is remarkable, no one ever no
ticed such a production from the tree previous
to this season.
THE WASTE OF WAR.—The New York Even
ing Post says that the Maine 11th regiment,
which passed through Broadway last Novem
ber, chanting. the Hallelujah chorus, eight
hundred and fifty men strong, nearly all young
and sturdy lumbermen, has suffered so much
that when they went into the battle of Fair
Oaks they numbered, fit for duty, only one
hundred and eighty men. Nearly. one half of
this number were killed or wounded.
IMPORTANT IT TRUEL-A Yankee has Invented
a new gun, with which he says he can sink the
Mpoitor in thirty minutes. He sets a target
of a thickness of *le inches of wrought iron
obliquely, and at long range puts a small ball
through the whole concern, clear and clean.
The rebel Confederacy, now go soon to per
ish, is utterly bankrupt. It was born without
a cause, and will die without effects.—Prentice.
