Medical. SPECIALTY, SPECIALTIES. Draw oh Nature — She Compel you to Honor the Acceptance. Thirty years since, when Dr Smith first commenced practice here, it was thought by medical men, that to be a Specialist was derogatory to the professional man, but this lik most other innovations in scientific and lay matters, was found rather to aid than to be "infra dig" to that profession, wherein the specialty was practised. Lallemand and in France, and Acton, in England, were for years cried down by their medical brethren. Now and for many past years they have been looked up to and quoted, by every man who pretends to have any know* ledge of the particular branch of the profession which these gentleman specially devoted themselves to. It was the same with Eras* mus Wilson, the "Skin Doctor," recently knighted by Her Majesty. Years since, it was the same with Dr L. L. Smith, of Melbourne, wbo practised (as did Lallemand and Eicord) as a specialist. In all cases of diseases and habits which produce symptoms of Nervous Affections, of Skin Eruptions, of Prostration, and make human beings invirile, or which unfit them to carry on the purposes of their being, or which demonstrates itself, on the other hand, in Eruptive Diseases and Secondary Forms of Affections. In all of these cases how necessary it is to have the Specialist who haa devoted his whole lifetime to the studying and practising in this one branch of his profession! Hence, now, after so many years, all minutiae are familiar to him, and symptoms which (it is not unreasonable to suppose) may not strike the General Practitioner at once, now from, constant practice and observation make Dr L. L. Smith master of the subject. The medical profession — that is, the more liberal-minded of them — have likewise recognised this fact, and Specialists now in every branch — oculists, aurists, syphilie, mental diseases, chest diseases, and in fact every portion the of human frame, has now some member of the profession who devotes his time to that, and to none other. For instance, the "chest doctor" would on no acconnt attend an accouchement, and the oculist would not think of setting a broken leg but each would advise his patient to go to that doctor who is most famed for treating the disease requiring special skill. Dr L. L. SmithS mith asks those who require treatment for Weakness, Prostration, Barrenness, aod Sterility, whose frames and whose constitutions are shattered, to consult him as an expert— thirty (30) years practice in this colony, with a practice extending throughout not only the Colonies but in India, China, Fiji, and even in England, he 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 Syphilographer no other medical man has been able to have such large experience as he possesses, and for other allied affections— such as Nervous disease — no one in the professioa has enjoyed so much public confidence.
