A WARNING. "Ills small at first, grow larger from delay, i And slowly eat their sad and cankering way ; Thus by excessive throes the- frame is torn, Till health and peace of mind alike are gone." Kb. Darwin. ri^HF, writer .desires, nay, feels it his duty, te X state, that be has given a large amount of time to the study, of the symptons and treatmeut of those diseases which, from a feeling of delicacy, medical men haye J neglected iv their studies. It is a matter to be regretted that the public at large are so little acquainted with the anatomy of the more secret parts of our organisation, and yet, when we consider how much misery is entailed oa mankind by this want of knowledge, it must suggest iiself to the mind of every reflective person as being of the greatest import. Man cannot err or committ any off<mca to th« 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 student 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 all morbid feelings of delicacy id this matter, all foolish prudery, are banished, and medical men address themselves to the subject, and make these important diseases their especial suidy. Dr. L. L. Smith has, in like manner, devoted many years to the study of nervous debility proceeding from indiscretions, sterility, and also in all those cases which render married life a burden and a curse rather than a round of' continual hap* piness. Many practitioners may be well read up ,(im theory) in those diseases, but the majority of these cases require the attention, or, at least tha advice, of one whom it is well known must have a thorough practical knowledge of them and not snly apraeti* '■'■ cal knowledge of the disease, but also a practical knowledge of the influence of this climate on diseases of females, which latter is most essential to their treatment. Dr. Smith has been now nearly eleven years praotising in this colony. As a general practitioner his reputation has spread throughout the whole of the neighboring colonies. He has, however, more particularly devoted hia attention to the diseases of women and children, diseases of the eye, dyspepsia, syphilitic and nervous affections, disease of the skin, and to the treatment of those diseases which hare the symptoms enumerated in the commencement of this notice: CONSULTING FEE BY LETTER, J6t. Dr. L. L. Smith can be consulted personally daily, mornings and evenings. Consultation fee (including medicine), 10s. Consulting Rooms, 192, 192£, and 194 Bouria Street, east, Melbourne. QUINTESSENCE OF JAMAICA GINGER AND CAMOMILE. WILKINSON'S (late Bridge's) Quintessence of Jamaica Ginger and Camomile. Ginger has long been deservedly known as an excellent domestic medicine, and, combined with. Camomile it is the most efficient Stomachic Tonic known; for whilst the Ginger relieves the stomach from Distension and Flatulency, arising from impaired digestion, the Camomile strengthens the coats of the stomach, and b} T that means gives a it healthy aid invigorating tone. So highly concentrated is this preparation (a fjew drops being a dose), it is unira* paired by age or climate, and consequently well adapted for exportation. Full directions are en» closed with each bottle for the following oomplaints : Flatulency, or, restoring tone to the stomach, Cholera, Dysentery, &c, Gout, Rheumatism, Spasms, when the stomach feels distended after eating, for assisting digestion, nervous affections, &c., &c. No Englishman in India, or those resident in Tropical Climates should ever be without this valuable preparation, as in numerous cases, when medical men are not always at hand, a dose ortwe> has checked, and frequently cured most violent attacks of illness incidental to those climates. Sold in bottles, $ pints, \ do., and f do. WILKINSON, (LATE BRIDGE) & CO/8 AGREEABLE SEDILITZ POWDER, IN ONE BOTTLE. HpHE advantages this Preparation possesses over -*• the ordinary compounds, is the perfect combination of the solid ingiedicnis of the Seidlita Spring in one compound powder. It is very agreeable to the palate, and, by a chemical process, more active than those prepared in the usual way (mix* ing two powders together,) and saves much trouble. It is well adapted for Exportation, or Travellers by land or sea, being unimpaired by age or keeping. This preparation is highly recommended not only as a Mild Aperient, but to allay Fever, Thirst, &c. SARASPARILLA.

" A superior preparation, that may always be relied on." — Sib Abtley Cooper. "We are in every respect satisfied with it." — ■> Lancet. " We recommmend your Sarasparilla as the best." — Medical Eeview. " Latterly, in consequence of mnch debility, &c., subsequent to Cholera, I have freely used Bridges Sarasparilla myself, with complete benefit and suocess."— J. Poett, F.R.C.S. " It is in the strictest sense a Tonic, with this invaluable attribute, that it is applicable to a state of the system so sunken and so irritable, as renders other substances of the tonic class unavailable and injurious.' I—Mb.1 — Mb. Tkaveks, F.R.S. " The compound decoction of Saraspariila actl as a Diaphoartic and Alterative, and is of the greatest service in Chronic Eheumatism, Cutaneous Eruptions, the advanced stages of Indigestion, and many very severe Ideal diseases, originating in dis- . orders of the Constitution." — Db. Graham, •■■■*>• i A, Sold in pints, J pints, and } pints. One pint is equal to 8 pints of the ordinary preparations. _ IMPORTANT CAUTION.— Toe public are respectfully cautioned against cheap preparations, which, instead of being what they profess (Saras* parilla), are nothing more than a decoction of Common Herbs sweetened with Molasses, and flavored with American Winter Green.
