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 Sol
itary Vice, that dreadiel and destructive habit
which annually sweeps to an untimely grave thou
sands 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 ecstasy the living lyre,
may call with full confidence.

particular in obtaining the name and number, or
you will mistake the place.
A cure warranted, or no charge made, in from
one to two days.
'race NOTICE.—Dr. Johnston's office is in his 1
dwelling, up the steps. Ilia 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
thegreater 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 over known, many trou
bled with ringing in the ears and head when
asleep, great nervousness, being alarmed at sud
den sounds, and bashfulness, with frequent blush
ing attended sometimes with derangement of
mind, were cured immediately.
A CEtcratx DisEasE.—lt is a 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 head, nose,
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.
TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.—Young men who
have injured themselves by a certain practice in
dulged in when alone—a habit ftequently learned
from evil companions, or at school—the eflects
of whirls are nightly felt, even when asleep, and
if not mired renders marriage impossible, and de
stroys both mind and body.
What a pity that a young man, the hope of his
country, and the darling of Isis parents should be
snatched from all prospects and enjoyments of
life by the consequence ordevintingfrom 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 neeessnry requisites to promote connu
bial happiness ' Indeed without these, the jour
ney thraugh life becomes a weary pilgrimage,
the prospect hourly darkens to the view; the
mind becomes shadowed with despair, and filled
with the melancholy reflection, that the happiness
of another becomes blighted with our own.
CONSTITUTIONAL DEDILITT.—Dr. J. !abyss
es young men, and alt who have injured them
selves by private and improper indulgence.
IMPUISBANA.—These are some of the sad and
melancholy effects 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, . .
MENTALI - X—i'lle fearful effects on the mind are
much to be dreaded; Loss of memory, Confusion
of ideas, Depression of Spirit, Evil Forborlings;
Aversion to Society, Self Distrust, Love of Soli
tude, &c., 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 wed:, pale and mach,
red, have singular appearance about the eyes,
tough and symtorns 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.,

Skin Diseases Speedily Cured,
To SirnAnonns.—The 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
winch have appeared 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,rui n
mg the health of the afflicted Dr. Johnston would
say to those unacquainted with his reputation that
his Credentials or Diplomas always hang in his
office.

ARMITAGE'S
Eloctro-11Ingnet Lightning Rods.
AFTlat many years' close investigation . and
numerous experiments, the Patentee takes
pleasure In informing the public that ho ilti3 arri
ved at the true principles of protecting families,
dwellings and property from the destructive in
fluence of Lightning. The calamities that
every City, Town, Village and Country fulls vic
tim to annually, through the gross negligence of
its inhabitants, is beyond calculation, especially
when the remedy is so easy to obtain—this is
found in ArmitageN Patent Magnetic
Lightning Rodß, and in this *lone. This
Rod has been examined by the most scientific
gentlemen in the world—Professors Al'Alurtrio,
Johnson, Wallor and many .others that have ex
amined them, recommend and speak of them in
the highest terms of approbation, and have pro
nounced them the only safe rods in use in this or
any other country, for the protection of Lives and
Property. One advantage is to divide and throw
hack a part of the electric fluid harmless to the
clouds; in time of a stroke this enables the rod
to conduct that portion of fluid that belongs to

PHILADA.. Aug. 13, 1847.
I have this day carefully inspected a conductor
or Lightning Rod, with vane and index, erected
by Mr. Thomas Armitage, on Bellevue Rouse,
Gloucester, and have no hesitation in saying that
it is not 'only the best that I have over seen, hat
that it is the only one I have yet examined that
is constructed on strictly scientific principles. It
is with touch pleasure that I recommend this
conductor to the attention of owners of buildings.
It. McMURTRIE.
_ .
I indwell satisfied that the Magnetic Li ghtning
Rod, mannfiletured by Mr. Thomas Armitage, of
Philadelphia, is the best that has ever been made.
I have spent several years in the study of the laws
of electricity and magnetism, and have no hesita
tion in saying that these Rods are constrneted
upon the only principle of safety. The electric
shock is received and dispersed by the magnet at
the top of the rod, and it would he impossible,
according to the laws of attraction and repulsion,
fora building to be injured by n stroke of light
ning when protected by one of these rods. I
hove been acquainted with Mr. Armitage for sev
eral years, and before he commenced the mann.
Acton, of these rods I examined the principle on
which they ore constructed, god felt convinced
that their adoption would be attended with com
plete success. The increasing demand for these
roils, and the extensive sales in all parts of the
country, is ample commendation of their utility
nod superiority.

The following extract is taken from nn editori
nl in the Germantown Telegraph, edited by Maj.
FREAS
"The bogus rod placed upon our dwelling we
have had taken down; and another ereted by Mr.
ARMITAGE, to which we would call the attention
of our farmers and readers generally. It is put
up on true scientific principles, and is a rod that
has been approved by the highest authority, and
will bear the most thorough examination. Those
who have been deceived, as we have been, should
lose no time in having a proper protection'agninst
lightning, substituted. The cost is a mere bag
atelle when compared with the entire safety of
our houses and barns against this destructive ele
ment. Mr. ARMITAGE'S Advertisement will be
found in the columns of this paper; and wo feel
as thong!' we were performing an imperious duty
to the community, by thus inviting to it general
attention."

Mr. T. ARMITAGE, Vine Street, west of Twelftl
Street, Philadelphia.
Mr 01,50 Slit: After a trial of many weeks, it
affords me great pleasure to inform von that 1
am highly delighted with the lightning rod you
placed upon toy house at Bustleton. As far as
my chemical knowiedge enables me to perform
an opinion, I on, satisfied you have developed
the correct principles in the adaptation of rods to
protect property from destruction by lightning; as
soon as the advantages of your arrangements are
understood, I am convinced that few persoits will
be found so reckless as to fail to avail themselves
of the protection afforded by your rods. Wishing
you all success in roar enterprise,
