Dabwin. •nPHK writer desires, nay, feels it his duty, te JL state, that be has given a large amount of time to the study of the symptons and treatment of those diseases which, from a feeling of delicacy, medical men have neglected iv their studies. It is a matter to be regretted that the publio at large are so little acquainted with the anatomy of the more secret part's of our organisation, and yet, when we consider how much misery is entailea 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 committ any offence to the laws of Nature without Dame Nature seoner or later resenting the affrqnt, 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 years to the celebrated Dr. Culverwell, of London. On the continent all morbid feelings delicacy in this matter, all foolish prudery, are banished, and medical men address themselves to the subject, and make these important diseases their especial study. Dr JL. L. Smith has, in like manner, devoled many years to the study of nervous debility proceeding from indiscretions, sterility, and also in all those cases which render married life a burden aud a curse rather ifcan a round of continual happiness. Many practitioners may be well read up (in theory) in tbose diseases, but the majority cf these cases require the attention, or, at least the advice, of one who it ia well know must have a thorough practical knowledge of them and not only a practical knowledge of the disease, but also a practical knowledge of the influence of this climat3 on diseases of females, whioh latter is most essential to their treatment. Dr. Smith has been now nearly eleven years prac- . tising in this colony. As a general practitioner hia reputation has spread throughout the whole of the neighboiing 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 ofthe skin, and to the treatment of those diseases which have the symptons enumerated in the commencement •(' this notice. - Consulting Fee by Letter, .£l.

QUINTESSENCE OF JAMAICA GINGER AND CAMOMILE. TTfILKIN.SON'S (late Bridge's) Quintessence VV 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 by that means gives a it healthy and iuvigorating tone. So highly concentrated is this preparation (a few drops being a dose), it. is unimpaired by age or climate, and consequently well adHpted 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 w'thout thia valuable prepamtion, as in numerous cases, when medical men are not alwayß at hand, a dose or two has checked, and fiequently cured most violent attacks of illness incidental to those climates. Sold in bottles, $ pints, £ do., and I do. WILKINSON, (LATE BRIDGE) & CO."
