* A- WARNING -*'"^- --" Ills small at first, grow larger' from delay, And slowly eat their sad and cankering way * Thus by excessive throes the frame is tornTill health and peace of mind alike are" gone." fen. Darwin. THK writer desires, nny, feels it his duty, te state, that be has given a large amount .of time to ihe study of the symptom* and treatment of those difeHses which from a feeling of delicacy, [medical men have neglected ia tbeir ssudies. [ Iti- a matter to be regretted that the ptihlidcnt large are so little acquainted with the anatomyof the more secret parts of our oriranisaiion. and yet, when we consider how much misery is en ailed on mankind by this want of knowledge, it must suggest itself to the mind of every reflective person as being of the greatest import. Man cannot err or comraitt any offence to the laws of Nature without Dame Nature sooner or later resenting the affront, and when she does she pays her debt back with frightful interest. When a btudeut at Paris Dr. L. L. Smith had ample opportunities of making these diseases his peculiar study. Again, Dr. Smith was assistant for some yeara to the celebrated Dr. Culverwell, of London. [ On the continent nil morbid feelings of delicacy !id this matter, all foolish prudery, are banished, and medicnl men address themsrlves to the subject, and make these important diseases their especial study. Dr. L. L. Smith has. in like manner, devoted many yeurs to the study of neivous debility pioceeding from indi-creiious, sterility, and also in all those casea which render married life a burden and a curse rather than a round of continual hap. pin esa, Many practitioners may be well read uj»* (in theory) in those diseases, but the majority of these cases require the attention, or, at least the advice, of one whom it is well leuown must have a thorough practical knowledge of thew and not only a practical knowledge of . the disease, but also a practical knowledge ofthe iufluence of this climate on diseases of females, which latter is most essential to their irea ment. Dr. Smith has been now nearly eleven years practising in this colony. As a general practitioner his reputation has spread throughout the whole bf the neigh to-irig colouies. He has, however, more particularly devoted his attention to the diseases of women and children, diseases of the eye, dyspepsia, syphilitic and nervous affecti*ms, disease of the skin, and to the treatment of those diseases* which have tbe symptoms enumerated in the commencement of this notice.
