A Presbyterian clergyman in Ohio, in writing
of "Hunter's Medical Manual," says:—
"Thousands upon thousands ofour youth, by evil
example and the influence of the passions, have
been led into the habit of self-pollution without
realising the sin and consequence upon them
selves and their posterity. The constitution of
thousands, who are raising families have been
enfeebled, if not broken down, and they do not
know the cause or the cure. Any thing that
can be done so to enlighten and influence the
public mind as to check, and ultimately to re
move this wide-spread source of human wretch
edness, would confer the greatest blessing next
to the religion of Jesus Christ, on the present and
coming generation. Intemperance, (or the use
of intoxicating drinks,) though it has slain thou
sands upon thousands, is not a greater scourge to
the human race. Accept my thanks on behalf
of the afflicted, and, believe me, your co-worker
in the good work you are so actively engaged in."

SECRET DISEASES.—GIeets Strictures,
Seminal Weakness, Pain in the Loins, Affections
of the Kidneys, and all those peculiar affections
arising from a secret habit, particularly the youth
of both sexes, which if not cured, produces con
stitutional debility, rendering marriage impossi
ble, and in the end destroys both Mind and Body.
Young Men especially, who have become the
victims of Solitary Vice, that dreadful and des
tructive habit which annually sweeps to an un
timely grave thousands of young men of the most
exalted talents and brilliant intellect, who might
otherwise have entranced listening senates with
the thunders of eloquence, or waked to eestacy
the living lyre, may call with full coi!tidence.
Married persons, or those contemplating mar
riage, bang aware of physical weakness, should
immediately consult Dr. J., and be restored to
perfect health.

name and number, or you will mistake the place.
A cure warranted, or no charge made, in from
one to two days.
TAKE NOTICE.—Dr. Johnston's office is in his
dwelling, up the steps. Ills very extensive prac
tice is a sufficient guarantee, that he is the only
propel physician to apply to.
Dr. Johston, member of the Royal College of
Surgeons. London, graduate from one of the
most eminent Colleges of the United States, and
the greater part of whose life has been spent in
the Hospitals of London, Paris Philadelphia, and
elsewhere, has effected some of the most aston
ishing cures that were ever known, many trou
bled with ringing in the ears and head when
asleep, great nervousness, being alarmed at end
den sounds, and bashfulness, with frequent blush
ing
attended sometimes with derangement of
mind, were cured immediately.
A CERTAIN DMA/M.—lt is n melancholy fact
that thousands fall victims to this horrid disease
owing to the unskilfulness of ignorant pretenders
who by the use of that deadly poison Mercury,
ruin the Constitution, causing the most serious
symptoms of that dreadful disease to make their
appearance, such as affections of the hoed, nose, ,1
throat, skin, etc., progressing with frightful ra
pidity till death puts a period to their dreadful
suffering, by sending them io that Bourne whence
no traveler returns.
Tarts PAR TIC U LAR Nomu.—Young men who
have injured themselves by a certain practice in
dulged in when alone—a habit fiat! ucutly 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 de
stroys both mind nod body.
iVhat a pity that a young man, the hope of his
country, and the darling of his parents should be
snatched from all prospects and enjoyments of
life by the consequence oldeviating from the path
of nature and indulging in a certain secret habit.
Such persons before contemplating Marriage,
should reflect that a sound mind and body aro
the most necessary requisites to promote connu
bial happiness, Indeed without these, the jour
ney through life becomes a weary pilgrimage,
the prospect hourly darkens to the view; the
mind becomes shadowed with despair, and filled
with the melancholy iellection, that the happiness
of another becomes blighted with our own. _
CONSTITUTIONAL BEBILITY.-Dr. J. address•
es young men, and all who have injured them.
selves by private and improper indulgence.
IstruissANA.—These are some of the sad and
melancholy cMcts 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 Dys
pepsia, Nervous Irritability, Detangements of the
Digestive Functions, General Debility Symptoms
of Consumption, &c.
MENTALLY—The fearful effects on the mind are
much to he dreaded; Loss of memory, Confusion
of ideas, Depression of Spirit, Evil Forbodings;
Aversion to Society, Self Distrust, Love of Soli
tude, &e., are some of the evils produced.
Thousands of persons of all ages,can now judge
what is the cause of their declining health. Los
ing their vigor, becoming weak, pale and emacia
ted, have singular appearance about the eyes,
cough and symtoms of consumption.
Married persons, or those contemplating mar
riage, being aware of physical weakness, should
immediately consult Dr. J. and be restored to per
fect health. Office, No. 7, South Frederick-St.,

ply immediately either personally or by letter.
Skin Diseases Speedily Cured,
To STUANOERS.—TiIe many thousands cured
at this Institution within the last ten years, and
the numerous important Surgical Operations
performed by Dr. J.,witnessed by the Reporters of
the papers, and many other persons, notices of
which have appeased again and again before the
public, is a sufficient guarantee that the afflicted
will find a skillful and honorable physician.
As there are so many ignorant and worthless
quacks advertising themselves us Physicians,ruin
ing the health of the afflicted Dr. Johnston would
say to these unacquainted with his reputation that
his Credentials or Diplomas always hang in his
office.
