TO MARY.
In the return oj her Birth-day, \"lth October, 1816.
Thy beauty burst in early bloom,
My Mary, at that natal rnorn
On which, like two sweet tones that meet,
Our loves in bliss wps to be bar n.
Bui one short year will scarce have run
Into the past her circling round,
Till on litis breast, nry peerless one,
Wilt thou in love's embrace be found.
J do not now reg et delay,
Since the bright midnight of thine eyes
Will shine serenely on my way
To the long wished for Paradise.
Thy morning star of beauty rose,
Shrined in a pure effulgence here;
And all the radiance of thy heart, —
The tender truth—the purity
We meet while here, shall not depart
In that vast shade—futurity.
For failh shall wear her holy spell
Around thy life, to join such worth
And wealth of soul, that never fell
Beneath the sin and taint of earth.
While love of thy ethereal breast,
A tearless realm of bliss shall make,
As alien ly is sh clows rest
Upnn the bosom of a lake.
Lov ' on I and as thy jewels wear
Unconsciously the light they show,
The unlauaht charm of grace so rare
Shall lead thee to escape its woe.
'Tis twenty years since heaven gave
Thy virtues and thv beauty birth,
But may it be twice forty e'er
It claim it back again from earth.
And 1 shnll wa'ch them slowly bloom,
Like two twin flowers, for Paradise;
And in life's final evening gloom,
Bball see the, like a star, arise ! HARRY.
TIIK RICHMOND TRAGEDY.
The Richmond papers bring us another in- j
alment of the letters of Mrs. Myers >q Me. I
oyt. There were no less than sixteen read !
ifore the Court on Wednesday, after which j
e counsel in the case announced that he t
lould decline to read any more. We copy 1
le following, being the fourth one read on
Wednesday:
FRIDAY MORNING.
Dearest one, 1 can never, neper thank you
tough for your last kind, sweet letter—oh! it
the dearest, most precious letter you ever
rote me. Ido love you so much for sending
IO these dear words —I can clasp them to my
sSom and bless you again and again, for tnak
tg me so happy. Oh! my beloved one, Ido
link you are the dearest, kindest, sweetest,
eing on this earth, and I do love you more
lan all the world—why tell you this, dear
tie, for you will not believe mo, as you say 1
ate loved so often —and you always seem to
oubtf/ie truth of this heart's devotion. Loved
ne, promise me just to listen to a few words 1
m going to say to you—Dearest, 1 do believe
hat theie never was a woman had sucli feei
ng* as 1 have for you. I believe my love for
ou is more powerful, more absorbing, than
ver existed in a human hoart. Dearest, I love
ou better than my own soul—l love you better
ban Heaven. Good God! I love you till my
leart has but one, one feeling, that of glorious
■eaulifu), passionate— Love —but dearest, why
s it you will not believe these words, fresh
rotn a pure heart—Oh! dearest, you do not
itnow how miserable it makes me when you
loubt my affection; I feel that I have nothing
iut words to give you. You do not believe
hose, and then if you have not perfect confi
lonce in my heart, remember that you do not
oee me, as I would wish you lo love me —see dar
ling, one reason I love you so devotedly is that
I have perfect, unwavering confidence in you, and
when you tell me any thing I would as soon
loubt Heaven, as doubt you, precious one, and
this is just the way you must feel towards me
iearest. Have entire faith in me, and oh! dar
ling one of my love, 1 know 1 am worthy of it
—give me, dearest, one swoet kiss, and tell me
you will never, never again, doubt your devot- j
ed Virginia. I speak truly, my cherished one,
when 1 now swear to you, that I have never
had a feeling for a human being like those I
have for you. Be it love, idolatry, adoration, I
of one thing I am, sure, that I never felt for'
another what Ido for you. I may have be
lieved I loved others, but good God! what were ;
those sensations compared to what 1 now feel. i
Then it was a calm, quiet, sober feeling—in- j
different I may say. Now, 'lis raging like a
storm in my heart—sxeot, burning, passion-1
ate, glowing enthusiasm—such strength that 1
am overpowered; it flashes, like an electric
shock, through my soul—Oh! God! it deranges
me. If this is not love, what in the name of
Heaven is it? Now how can I believe for one
moment, that I ever lovedbefore, for I have ne
ver in my whole life had such feelings as I now
have. What passion it was I felt before I know
not, but what I feel now is love—yes, love, in
its purity, its strength, in its deep, unutterable
i adoration. Oil! dearest, if you could but read j
this heart you would know I never loved be- j
fore. Dear one, do you still doubt me! oil no!
no! you cannot; only think of every action, and j
how can you doubt me! Oh mine own, my
only one, I have never, never dearest has my
heart been given to another, and I now will
make a holy sacred promise, and you must
never, for one instant, doubt tiie faith, the per
fect love, which prompts this vow: 1 swear to
you, loved one, from this hour lam wholly,en
tirely yours, not even one thought shall be given
to another—every atom, every mite of love,
glowing in this heart, is yours, and only yours
My life, from this day, shall be exclusively de
voted to you—the object of every thing, action,
word, shail be to make mo moie and more wor
thy ol thee. I shall act in all things, as 1 know
you would wish me act, were wo united in the
sight of man, for J can never forget that I am
your wife, save in the empty ceremony, for our
affection unites us close. Oh! how close! .Me
rer shall living man touch these lips which I
have consecrated to you—they are saciedly
yours—you have impiinted on them the holy,

pure kiss of alfection, and never, never shall
they be polluted by the touch of other than thine
own precious lips—this form has been encircled
by thy fond arm, and never shall it feel the em
brace of another. This hand has been clasped
by thine own dear one, and never shall it eve/
be touched by others. Yes, dearest, I swear to
you, mine heart is as true, as pure to you as
an angel! and my whole person, too, is now sa
credly yours. 1 now call God lo witness this
vow, which I lake in the sight of Heavenjand,
oh! may He grant, that when death takes me
from you, beloved one, I may be as I now am
—your own, yes! your pure, spotless, innocent
Virginia. Dear one, think now of what 1 have
so solemnly promised you, and, oh! do you not j
believe me, when 1 say 1 never loved before,
and do you think I shall ever love again? 1
have always, and still believe, that wo never
love, truly love, but once—wo may imagine
we love many times, but when our hearts feel
the real strength of love, then it is wo find we j
have never loved before; because thon, we have
feelings different from any over fell previous.
'Tis then, and then only, we are conscious of
the delicious sensations of love—these feelings
can only be felt once—they are now filling to
overflowing of this heart, and I know, dearest, j
I can never, never have them for another. No!
no! You are the only being who has ever call
ed these feelings into existence, and now none,
none, can extinguish the bright flame of love
which you have lighted in this bosom. Oh!
dearest, remember all I now promise you—it is
a vow which shall never be broken, and tell
me, sweet one, if you du not look upon us as
indissolubly united as if we were in the eyes of
the world, ONCE MARRIED. Yes! dear one, even i
more, for I am sure I love you more, far more, i
than woman ever loved before, and you love j
me more tiian man over loved woman. Do you |
not, precious?—then we are indeed united by |
ties which man cannot break. Tell me, dear- j
est, have I ever loved as Ldo you? Say no! no! j
; you believe I never knew what pure love was, i
I till I gave it you. Now lam happy, because j
| I know you have porfect faith in all I tell you. j
Good bye, love, till to-morrow, when I will
j talk with you again. 1 will seal all I have pro- j
j mined you with a dear kiss—shall it not bo
\ TWO? Yes! 1 hear you say! How sttange it is, 1
/never loved to kiss any one save you, precious |
j darling.
i The Richmond Times gives us the following i
abstract of the contents of some of the remain- !
i ing letters:
j No. 6—Dated at "Aita Vista," June 16 or!
j 17, writes to him that he had better not write j
jat all to her there. [The letter dated the 13th, i
j asked a letter.] There would be risk of de- !
I tcction. When they meet, she can explain j
. things which she could not put on paper. Bays '
she had spoken to her mother freely of her un- j
i happiness—says she has much lo toll, and an
| ticipates a happy union with him—calls herself
| his pure and spotless Virginia.
, No. 7 —Superscribed in Hoyt's hand writing,
| "Wednesday, August 26, 1846." Speaks of
bitter disappointment in not meeting him—
i tells him that she would be made happy by his
j telling her he loved her—as long as he loved '
; her, she would be perfectly happy—speaks of;
a hateful letter in which she was told she
would next give him her soul—yes, she says j
; she gives him her very soul. *
No S—Superscribed in Hoyt's hand. "Fri-j
day, 31st July, 1846." Speaks of her miser
able condition; says, she is weeping over her j
. fate, which was dark and gloomy—"bound for
' ever to a tnan who docs not hesitate to tell me !
; that he cares nothing for me." "Treated, i
, alas! God only knowß how cruelly;" the affec
tions of her father, mother and family alienated ;
! from her—with "no hope in the future, but
| death." Represents herself as an outcast, &c.
| She looks only to heaven for relief.
' No. 9—Dated inside, Tuesday, 3 o'clock, on
the outside, Friday, 14th Aug., 1846. Speaks
1 in the same strain of unhappiness—is almost 1
distracted—lost forever—forsaken by the whole
world. Wednesday —soys she has not closed
her eyes in sleep—nearly exhausted with suf
! faring. Her distress would kill her. Speaks
of taking her life by her own hands—hopes'
! God will forgive her for taking her own life—
j says H. may hear of her death in one hour.— j
! Believes she will die a maniac. Asks why she
j hesitated to drink tho poison? Did sha fear to '
die? She answers—the hope that he still loves
her. Indulges the expressions of attachment 1
winch characterise the other letters. We
quote the following verbatim from this letter, as 1
j it bears upon a part of the testimony taken yes-1
j terday: •
j "I left No. 18 at n most unfortunate moment,
■ I fear; for 1 observed several persons in the
| room opposite, whose faces I could not distin- j
guish from my veil, also a servant in the rotun- |
! da. Now lam afraid they will speak of it, for
j of course they had seen the door tried, and then
|my coming out, lookod suspicious—l wished 11
| had remained a few moments longer, then I
I might have left unobserved. Do, darling, try
! every way and ascertain if any thing has been
sa id by the servants, for 'tis them I fear —I can 1
| only hope you did not come out the same door
| 1 did, for did you, of course it gave rise to re
marks. However, I trust these arc only my
j fears; but should you find that any thing has
"| been said, you had best endeavor to explain it 1
j away. 1 think it strange the door could have I
{ bcon tried twice, and I should like lo find out
! the person so inquisitive. 1 am almost afraid j
jtogo to 41, for there lam so apt to meet Mar-1
! tha. However, dearest, 1 leave it to you to I
j make the arrangement; but 1 beg you will use j
I all means to find out if any thing has been said,!
jas I feel very anxious to know. I cannot but j
regret I left at the lime 1 did; however, as no j
i one may have recognised mo through iny veil, j
you can find out surely."
The letter continues with the remarks that;
sho feels that she is falling bauk to the stale ofj
mind which made her "almost dastroy herself'
yesterday." Could riot lsng support sucli a ■
life of anguish, asks him, "why wilt you not
w rest me irom these sufferings and make me!
happy."
No. 11 (introduced by the defence) was aj
letter received since the death of Hoyt, arid itsj
importance requires its entire publication. It (
is as follows:
Addressed lo D. M. Hoyl, Richmond. j
ALTA VISTA, Oct. 9th, 1846. |
Having learned through the medium ufai
friend, that all my Utters addressed to you du-j
ring tiie whole period of my acquainlanee, have ;
■ been placed in the hands of Dr. Mills, with di- j
rections "to circulate them freely anil exten-j
sively through Richmond, in order to shew the |
, public that you were sought and seduced by me" j
SATURDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 17, 1846
—tit us increasing popular prejudice against my
self—you can surely imagine lioiv I was shock
ed and astonished at this intelligence. I could
scarce believe that you whom I had deemed so
honorable, so generous, should have acted in
this manner towards me, overwhelmed as I am
by grief and anguish Those letters were writ
ten in the most confiding spirit, and without one
thought, that in the tempest of public feeling
they would be exposed by you indiscriminate
ly to the perusal of a mixed community. Had
they been written for public inspection, how
differently tliey would liavo been penned '
I do not write with a view to upbraid or re
proach you, but conscience will have its empire,
j and so cruel an exposure of what 1 once dcein
od sacred, will not bo without its reward. 1
now beg you that you will at once surrender to
me all my letters and communications to your
self. I cannot believe that you will momenta
rily hesitate to send them to me without any
j delay, inasmuch as the request you made me
"to destroy every line penned by you to my
self" was so IrMSftng/y, 60 cheerfully performed.
If you are acting from levenge, you may be as
sured the communications intercepted by Col.
Myers, and now in tho poss: ssion of my ene
{ mies, are sufficient to crush ine forever, devas
tate every hope, and destroy all my prospects
of happiness. 1 entreat you pause and reflect
that the wreck of my destiny is complete with
out further assistance from your hand. I ttust
you will refrain from exposing any of my let
ters to you, now in the hands of Dr. Mills, in
the PUBLIC COURT. This I entreat of you.—
You can imagine how I shrink from sucli an
exposition of loiters written in such sacred eon-
I fidenco. Spare me this blow, at least, for lam
i overwhelmed with sorrow. Grant this my last
land only request. You would not surely, by
such a course, lacerate more|deeply the wounds
j already forever inflicted ort my peace, my cx
i pectations arid my hopes.
In anguish and grief,
VIRGINIA MTERS.
j JUDGE D'LYON. This gentleman, since his
return home to Savannah, has addressed ihe
; following letter to J. E. Ward, Esq :
Dear Sir—l have learned with regret since I
j my arrival, that the Reporter in the caso of the j
j Stale of Maryland vs. Judali M. Isaacs and
I others, has erroneously represented mo in say
; ing that I received the lettor containing the '
1 advertisement in the Herald from you. This
j was no part of my testimony, and 1 positively
, deny its correctness. All the connection which j
j 1 staled you to have in the case, was handing j
j me, in your professional capacity, certain
i papers against Isaacs, to bo placed in the
| hands i f an Attorney at Law. So far from
! making such a statement, 1 WELL KNEW TOU
NEV&R SAW OR HEARD OF THE ADVERTISEMENT,
j In endeavoring to account for Isaacs' conduct
.1 towards me, I stated that I had received a let
! ter from Savannah informing mo that falso ro
! presentations had been made by some of his j
•! friends in relation to tho part 1 was to take, or I
had taken against him, but 1 did not state from I
| whom I received in. I distinctly remember |
I that Mr. Norris, the defendant's counsel, allud
•j ed to a letter from you, as part of my testimo
' ny, when he was immediately corrected by
! Mr. Malcolm, on the part of the State. As an
act of justice, I feel bound to make this com
! niunication, and desire its publicity.
Very truly yours,
LEVI S. D'LTON. !
J A CHAPTER OF DISTRESSING CASUALTIES.— |
; A Saulsbury, N. C. paper records the follow- 1
! ing distressing casualties :
J. Calvin MeCorkle, the only son of J. F. I
j McCoritlo, Esq., of Rowan, aged about four-i
; leen years, was standing near the stable, at his
father's residence, looking on, while a boy was
attempting to drive a wagon and team in a nar
row place, when, one of the horses becoming'
refractory made a sudden start and run the |
tongue of the wagon against him—crushing him 1
against tho wall, lie lived only about ten |
hours!
I Mr. Henry C. Winders, a worthy citizen of,
the samo county, was killed by a lull from his
I horse—tho horse, being young, and hard to I
i manage, and lie in feeble health.
Mr Tutinan Deadman,of Davie county, had i
his house 6truck by lightning, which instantly j
, killed his wife and set fire to his house. Be- j
sides Mrs. Doadman, thero were her two chil
! dren of four and two years in the house, and a
i negro woman; the fluid which killed Mrs. Dead
; man, struck, and severely hurt the negro, and
' probably shocked the children; —the negro wo
man was barely able to get out of tho burning
; house. The eldest child who also escaped, says j
i that after her mother was killed, and the house j
; on fire, she tried to pull her little brother out of!
the house, but he clung to tho dead mother,
and was burned alive. Mr. Deadrnan was ab
! sent a mile or so oft* at work, and returned on
ly to find tho ashes of his wife and child, and
all Ins property a heap of ruins.

THE BATTLE AT MONTEREY — GriaI Havoc.
THO following IS reported by Capt. Spencer,
who took on the despatches of Gen. Taylor to
vVashington, (and who participated in the bat
tle at Monterey,) as the forces engaged:
General Taylor—4,ooo regulars, I n ~n n ,
2 1)00 volunteers, \ C ' Boo forcu -
Gen. Ampudia—7.ooo regulars, nfm ~
4,000 mililii, jl'.ooo force.
Wo find the following paragraph in tho New
Orleans Delta:
The destructive fire to which the division
under Gen. Taylor was exposed, when ad
vancing on the enemy's forts, on the 21st ult.
at Monterey, may hegathored from the fate of
the gallant Third Regiment.
Soon after the time when the order to ad
vance was given, Major Loar, in command of
tho regiment at the time, got killed.
Capt. Morris then assumed the command; he
too, shared a like fate. Capt. Bainbridge was
next to lead; he got severely wounded, and had
to retiro. ISvt. Maj. the next to
take command; he was killed. Capt. Field
was next, and he was killed. .At the close of
the engagement, Capt. Henry was in command j
of what remained of the regiment, which were!
found to riHinber, on being mustered, 7 1 men, !
including the officers and tho rank and file.
PENNSYLVANIA ELECTION. We have but
few additional returns from this State. The U.
S. Gazette of yesterday, says:
Tho llouso of Representatives ofPennsylva
nia consists of 100 members, of whom last year j
the Whigs had 33
Democrats, 6 7
As far as heard from last evening, the Whigs I
had elected 36 members, gaining 14 members;
the democrats had elected 20, with no gain.
There were eleven Senators to be elected, \
eight of whom arc democrats, and throe whigs.
Ihe whigs are all re-elected, (if we count Mr. i
| Harris, in Centre District) and in tho eight
J democratic districts the Whigs have elected 4.'
I This would leave the Senato 1 8 Whigs, 1 Na- j
live, and 14 Democrats, for the coming year. ■
' In the 17th district, J. Blanchard, whig, is
J re-elected to Congress,
The whigs so far have a gain of four Con-
I gressmen.
By tho Western Mail we learn that Dickey,
| whig, is elected in the 20th district, which is,
J we believe, another whig gain.
We have a lew returns from tho 24th dis- !
trict, which show a considerable whig gain,
and renders the election of Irwin, whig, pro
bable.
Butler county gives a whig majority of 300;'
Beaver 450; Armstrong a small whig majority;
Washington 50, and elects a whig to the legis
j lature, which is a gain. Westmoreland coun
• ty gives about 1000 majority for the democrats,
j which is a considerable falling off, and Greene
! 700.
| As we have not the voto in full, in the coun-
I ties heard from, we omit our table of returns
| for Canal Commissioner. It seems to bo con
j ceded that Power, Whig, is elected by a deci
j sive majority.
J FLORIDA ELECTION. We have but a few ■
j scattering returns from the congressional elcc- j
J tion in this State. In the eastern counties the
i tide seems to be in favor of Mr. Kaines, (D.)
Jln the . west, however, Mr. Cabell, (W.) bids
fair to have the advantage. In Leon county,
J ( I allahasseo,) Cabell's majority is 80 votes—
: last year only 34. The whole whig legislative
ticket (senator and four representatives) elect
| ed.
In Gadsden county, Cabell's majority is a-
I bout tho same as last year— so votes.
In Jefierson county, Kaines' majority is va
j riously stated at from SO to 100— last year
j Brockenbrougk's was only 26.
j In Franklin county, Kaines' majority is only
j 2 votes—last year Brockcnbrough had 69.
Wakulla gives Cabell a majority of 40 votes
j—a considerable gain. Tho result in theStato 1
j is extremely doubtful.
MAINE. The whigs of the Fort Fairfield
! District have elected Nathaniel Blake. The
j House now stands, 54 whigs; 52 democrats; no
: choice, 41; four to be heard from.
SOUTH CAROLINA. Hon. J. E. Holmes is
elected to Congress in the Charleston district.
OHIO ELECTION. From homo unaccountable;
cause, we received no Columbus paper last i
night, and are theiefore without any returns;
| from Ohio.
; OUR ARMY IN MEXICO. A correspondent of
I tho Cincinnati Chronicle, who was with Gen. J
! Taylor at Camargo, gives quite an interesting!
j account of tho army of tho United Stales in!
: Mexico. He estimates the invading army im-J
j mediately under Gen. Taylor, or the Army of'
j Monterey, to amount to 66-10 men, half regu-J
I ITS and half volunteers.
There aro at Camargo, lie says, 2100 men;
at Matarnoras 1000; between Matarnoras and
tho mouth of the Bravo, 4550; at Point Isabel
120; at Camargo 700 sick and inefficient; at
Matarnoras in hospital, 700; troops of all sorts
from Camargo to Brasos, tinder Maj. Gen. Pat
terson, and Brigadiers Marshall, Pillow, Lane |
and Shields, 9170, making with the army o(
Monterey, 15,810. Gen. Wool has under his
command, to advance on Chihuahua, 4,000.
Gen. Kearnoy has at Santa Fo, 2700. The
whole of the United States armies auainst Mex
ico, 22,510.
FIRE IN PITTSFIELD, MASS. The larae
manufactory, belonging to Mr. Lemuel Pome
'F>y, and situated in Pontoosue village, two
miles from Pittsfield, was entirely destroyed by

DR. JOHNSTON,
a distinguished graduate from one o-f the first Co
leges i Mile Unitt d States, which may he seen bv Hi
Diploma; also, a member of the Royal College of
purgcons and Licentiate of the Apothecary's flail,
London; and the greater part of whose life has been
'pout in the. first hospitals of Europe and America,
VIZ' those of London, Paris and Philadelphia, may
be consulted on all diseases, but more particular!?
A CERTAIN DISEASE.
" ben the misguided and imprudent voti rv of plea
sure finds lie hasimlubed the seeds of this painful dio
-sase, it too often happens that an ill timed sense of
fftame, or dread of discovery, deters him from applyi
ng to those who, from education nr. I respectability
.'an alone befriend him, delaying till the constitutional
symptoms of this horrid disease make their appear
ance, such as ulcerated sore throat, diseased noM,
nocturnal pains in the head and limbs,dinincssof sight,
deafness, nodes on the shin bones and arms, blotches
nil the head, faceand extremities, progressing on with
frightful rapidity, till at last the palate of the mouth 01
the. bones of the nose fall in and the victim of this aw
ful discasebecomes a hoiridobject of commiseration,
till death puts a period to his dreadful sufferings, by
sending him to "that bourne whence no traveller re
turns." To such, therefore, Dr. JOHNSTt >N pledges
himself to preserve the most inviolable secrecy; and,
from bis extensive practice in the first lios|Jtals of
Europe and America, he can confidently recommend
a safe and speedy cure to the unfortunate victim of
this horrid disease.
It is a melancholy fact, that thousands fall victim
to this horrid disease, owing to the unskillfulness 01
men, who by the use of that deadly poison, mercury,
ruin the constitution, and either send the unfortunate
suffer to an untimely grave, or else make the residua
of his life miserable.
GONORRHOEA AND GLEET CURED, by thl
most speedy and the most pleasant remedy known ta
no other physician. It requires no restraint of diet,
or hindrance from business—it is mild, safe and effi;
:aciotts, eradicating every symptom of this affection)
without causing other diseases, such as STRICTO*!
and AFFECTIONS or THE RI.ADDEK and PROSTRATI
GLAMD, which impyrics and quacks so often create
their noxious drugs and filthy infections,
STRICTURES—when there is a partial stippre*
don of urine, accompanied with uneasiness in the
parts, or a frequent desire to make water, it is called
Stricture. Yet this disease may exist, and none 01
these symptoms be perceptible, or if at all, they are
io slight as to pass unnoticed; hence, we find thou
sands laboring under this affection who are entirely
jnconscinus of it—such perrons become weak in iht
parts, seldom have children, and in the later stages of
his complaint are incapable of enjoying Marriage—
their systems become deranged, particularly ths
stomach, inducing symptoms of dyspepsia; also affec
tions of the mind, peculiar fits oI melancholy, Sic.
&c. which may cud in sonic dreadful disease of the
nerves, and will either cause a premature death or
else, make the rest of life miserable. To such per
sons, Dr. JOHNSTON offers the most speedy remedy
that can be obtained in the United States,
tiff- Read Dr. J.'s Treaties on Veneral, etc. etc.
TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
Young men who have injured themselves by acer
tain practice indulged In when alone—a liuS.i y rß
quently 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 and body.
What a pity that a young man, the hope of his
country, and the darling of his parents, should b*
snatched from all the prospects and enjoyments of
life by the consequences of deviating from the path of
nature and indulging in acertain secret habft. Such
persons before contemplating
MARRIAGE,
Should reilect that a sound and body arc the most
necessary requisites to promote Connubial happiness.
Indeed, without these, (lie journey through life be
comes a weary pilgrimage, the prospect hourly dark
ens to lite view the mind becomes sbadowt A with
despair, and filled with the melancholy reflection, that
the happiness of another becomes blighted with our
own.
CONSTITUTIONAL DEBILITY.
Dr. J. addresses young men and all who have io|
jo'ed 'hen selves by private St improper indulgences,
IMPOTENCE-WEAKNESS Ot THE (JENI
TAL ORGANS.
Loss of virile power is the penalty mostfreq uently
paid by those Who give a loose rein or license to their
passions. Young persons art too apt locon.mttcx
cesses from nut being aware of the dreadful effects
that may ensue. Although tuipnlency eccuta frota
stricture, depositee in the urine, gravel, and from nu
merous other causes, yet the abuse of the sexual or
gans, by excessive venery or self-pollution; purlieu
larly the latter is tin more frequent cause of it. Now
who thatunderstauds the subject will pretend to deny
that the power of procreating the species is lost soon
er by those who practice the" solitary eicc than by ths
prudent. Resides, by premature impotence the di
gestive functions are deranged and lite physical and
mental powers weakened by a too frequent and too
great excitement of the genital organs. Barents and
guardians are often misled, with respect to the
causes or sources of disease in their sons and wardn.
Ilow often do they ascribe to other causes the wast
ing of the frame, idiotcy, madness, palpitation of tho
heart, indigestion, derangement of the nervous sys
tem, cough and symtoms, indicating consumption,
when the truth is that they have been caused by inj
dulging in a pernicious, though alluring practice, des;
tractive to both mind end bodv.
INIOLUNTAKV SEMINAL EMISSIONS,
Of this distressing disease, whielt is the common
result of 'he above mentioned secret hnhit , hut a very
brief description for many reasons, can be given here.
The. complaint comes on gradually. It begins by a
too hasty discharge of sen en i* copulative and pas
sionate dreams, ifiucit emissions being too hasty,
have no power, while the erections are feeble, imper
fect and soon over. As the disorder grows Worse,
the discharges or emissions become mere easily ex
cited and frequent, often hrought on bv Iwrivioug
ideas, or by merely touching the part, iii this deplo
case, the run-,ions take [ 'ace without any
pleasure and without i rection, am! in this d-IMitated
