A WARNING. J "Ills small at first, grow larger from delay 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." Bb. Darwin. THE writer desires, nay, feels it his duty, tc I state, that he has given a large amount of | time to the study of the symptons and treatment ol those diseases which, from a feeling of delicacy, medical men have negleaed iv their studies. It i 9 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 on mankind by this want of knowledge, it must suggest itself to the mind of every reflective person ns being of the greatest import. Man cannot err or commitfc any offence to the laws of Nature without Damo Nature seoner 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 soine years to the celebrated Dr. Culverwell, of London. on the continent all morbid feelings of delicacy in this matter, all foolish prudery, are banished, and medical men address themselves to the subjeot, and make these important diseases their especial study. Dr L. L. Smith bas, in like manner, devoted many years to the study of nervous debility proceeding from indiscretions, sterility, and also in all those oases which render married life a burden aud a curse \ rather than a round of continual happiness. { Many practitioners may be well read up (in theory) in those diseases, but the majority cf these cases require the attention, or, at least the advice, of one who it is well know must have a thorough practical knowledge of ihem and not only a prastical 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. bt. Smith has been now nearly eleven years prac- ! tising in this colony. As a general practitioner his reputation has spread throughout the whole of the neighboring colonies. He has, however, more particularly devoted his 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 have the symptons enumerated in the commencement of this notice.

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 by that means gives a it healthy and invigorating tone. So highly concentrated is this preparation (a few drops being a dose), it is unimpaired by age or climate, and consequently well adapted for exportation. Full directions are en closed with each bottle for the following complaints : 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 or two has checked, and frequently cured most violent attacks of illness incidental to those climates. Sold in bottles, £ pints, J do., and $ do. WILKINSON, (LATE BRIDGE) & CO."
