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 torn, Till health and peace of mind alike are gone." Bb. Darwin, t nnilF, writer desires, nay, feels it his duty, tc , JL state, that be has given a large amount of T time to the study of the symptons and treatment of j those diseases which, from a feeling of delicacy, medical men have neglected iv their studies. It is a matter to be regretted that the public at large are so little acquainted with the anatomy of s 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 asust suggest 1 itself to the mind of every reflective person as ' being of the greatest import. ' Man cannot err or committ any offduce to the ' aws of Nature without Dame Nature sooner or ■ ater 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 I for some years to the celebrated Dr. Culverwell, of J ' London. On the continent all morbid feelings of delicacy in this matter, all foolish prudery, are banished, and i medical men address themselves to the subject, and make these important diseases their especial study. 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 happiness. Many practitioners may be well read up (in theory) in those diseases, but the majority cf .thesa casesrequire the attention, or, at least the advice, of one who.it is 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 climate on diseases, of females, which latter is most essential to their treatment. Dr. Smith has been now nearly eleven years practising 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 chis notice.

QUINTESSENCE OF JAMAICA GINGER AND CAMOMILE. TT7'ILKINSON'S*(Iate Bridge's) Quintessence V f 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 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.
