Medical Specialty rjfeeeftAJtots ! Draw «n Nature ; »be cancels y«u to k»m»ttr the acceptance. fWIHIRTY years since, when Db Smith first JL commenced praotico here, it was thought by medical men that to be a specialist was derogatory to the professional man, but this, like most other innovations ia scientific and lay matters, was found rather to aid than to be "infra dig." to that profession wherein the specialty was, practised Lallemand and Bicord in France,,,aDd Action in England, were for jews cried, down by their medical brethren. Now. and. for many years past they have been 1 T?rs V? **> quoted by every, man,, who prJßtends to have any knowledge of the particular branch of the profession which these gentlemen '•pedially' devoted themselves to. It was the stole with ' Erasmus Wilson, the w Skin Doctor," recently knighted by! hex ' Majesty. .Years 'since' it was the same with Br I* L. Smith, of Melbourne, Who practised (as did Lallemand and Rieord) as a spedaKst. In all' oases i of diseases, , ana habits ' ■ which produce fyraptoms , of Nervous Affections, of, Skin . Eruptions, Prostration, and make human beings jn virile, or which unst,them t* carry on the purposes of their befflg, or which demonstrates itselfj on the' other hand, in Eruptive Diseases' and Secondary Forms ef Afleotioni; in all of these cases how necessary ft is to have the Specialist who has devoted bis whole lifetime to the studying and practising In this oae branch of his profession. Hence now, after so many years, all.minufcis are familiar to him, and symtoma which. »(it is notunreasonable to suppose) m*y not strike the general practitioner at once, now, from constant practice and observation, make Db L. L. Smith master of ike subject. The medical profession— that is, the more liberal-minded of them— have likewise recognised this' fact, and Specialist* now in every branch — ocuHits, audits, syphiHc, mental diseases, chest diseases, and hi fact every portion of the human frame, has now som* member of the profession who devotof hia time to that and to none other. For instance, the "chest doctor " would on no account attaid an accouchement, and the oculist would net think of setting a broken Itg; but each would advise his, patient to goto that doctor who is most famed for treating the disease requiring special 8 A ill* Db L. L. Smith asks those who require treatment for Weakness, Prostration, Barrenness, aiid Sterility, whose frames and whose constitu- • tions are shattered, to consult him as an expert. Thirty. (30) years' practice in this colony, with » practice extending throughout not only the colonies,, but in India, Ohina, Fiji, and even in England, his claims ought to be sufficient to cause every man, or woman requiring such skill as is alluded to above, to consult him either personally or by letter. As a Sphilographer, no other medical man has been able to havo such large experience as he possesses, and for other allied affectionsSuch as Nervous Diseases—no one in the profession bas enjoyed bo much public confidence.
