New seeds AND SELECT NURSERY STOCK. THOMAS ALLAN, Nurseryman and Seedsman, Princes-street, Cumberland-street, and Frederick-street, Dunedin, begs to call the attention of settlers and farmers to the Largest and Most Varied Stock of Agricultural & Garden Seeds Ever offered in Otago ; comprising White, Red, Yellow, Alsyke, Cowgrass, and other Clovers, Timothy, Cocksfoot, Fcsenes, Rye, Italian, Meadow, Foxtail, Poas, anl other Grasses, and Garden Seeds in variety and quality not to be had elsewhere in Otago. T. Allan wouWalso (Erect special attention to his Ei'uit and Forest Trees, Ornamenbp; other Trees and Apples and Pears in 70 different varieties, all splendid, clean, heaj-fhy, amUwell-growing trees, one, two, three, and A our years old, from 12s. per dozen ; Plums ancFCherries, three and four years old, 18a. to 30s. per dozen; Peaches, Apricots. Nectarines, Almonds, Quinces, Filberts, Hazels, Ac. ; 300,000 Thorn, Quicks,'one, two, and three years old ; 20,000 Forest Trees, in great variety. All Up-countryJOr’era 'Carefully Packed and Executed with Despatch. Garden Tools, Pruning Gloves, &c. “Up ! Up, my friend, and clear your looks! WTiy all this toil and trouble ?” ALL those who are suffering from despondency, melancholia, loss of spirits, and pluck, who feel that they are wasting and pining, and who are gradually getting weaker and weaker, from causes they have no' courage or desire to acquaint th ir family attendant with. In all such cases Mr. L. L. SMITH feels it incumbent on himself to inform such unfortunate patients, that he has devoted his lifetime to the study of these complaints, having been a pupil and assistant of the late Dr. Culve well, of London, who made these diseases his special prac ice. In all those diseases relating and pertaining to Married Life, and which make marriage a curse rather than a blessing, Mr L. L Lmith can be consulted wi hj the greatest certainty of success, and with the additional feeling'that no chance can possibly occur .of their secret ever being divulged. In cases of extreme Nervous debility, where the patient fee’s that he is exhausted and physically prostrated, .and incapable of evertion without great fatigue, then and there the person so situated should at once consult Mr. L L. SMITH before disease of a more se ious character sets in ; the above arises frequently from the enervating influence of hot clima'es, but frequently from other causes of a more serious nature. of the heari, a t ndeneyalso to be easilvSti*rae 1 is another phase jmKh) requires particular a most important cause those the above have Txoi>£ ' “Mix’d with pleasure, And wisdom with mirth.” But have on the contrary, been guilty of a secret vice, which has, as it were, eaten into their very vitals. Many “ old young men ” consult me, who, though young in years, have, through the vice above alluded to, and from their having been quacked by the unqualified an l unskilful medical man, at.last given up all hope and succumbed, and are aged in their very youth, unfitted to fulfil the, duties which they are sent on this earth to berform. “ Be wise to-day, ’tis madness ‘to defer Procrastination is the thief of time.” Mr. L. L. SMITH wishes to impress on those who are laboring under diseases which cannot be treated by the general medical attendant, from insufficient knowledge and practice, that as an expert in these diseases, he has the right to .warn the public at large against the number of-] blatant charlatans and quacks who not only extort the money out of the pockets of the patients, but are continually ruining the health of the unfortunate sufferers. Many hundreds yearly present themselves to him from all the different colonies, who are thoroughly bankrupt in health and pocket, and then lament, whon too late, the horrible deception which has been practised on them. Not only do men deceive these unfortunate victims by pretending to be legally qualified men, but they advertise for sale, and swindle the public, by selling bottles of muck, under the name of Dr. Ricord’s Essence of Life,” “Balm of Syriacum,” and a mass of quackeries, whose sole province is to extract money out of the pockets of their deluded victims. Will the public never understand that the only guarantee they can have that they will be honestly and skilfully treated, is the fact that the person to whom they apply for advice is a legally qualified medical man who has devoted his time to the branch of practice for which the patient is seeking aid? Secondly, that his long residence in the place, and his position, is at least a guarantee of the estimation in which he is_ held by his fellow-citizens Dr. L. L. SMITH can be consulted by letter ; fee £l. By the above means any male or female patient can, by describing their symptoms avoid the, in many cases, unpleasantness of a personal interview, and the patient con retain his incognito. Medicines appropriately packed to avoid observation are sent to all parts of the colonies, with plain letters of instruction as to diet, &c., Mr. L. L, SMITH consults personally daily, morning, before 11, and evenings beween 7 and 9.—192, Bourko-street east, Melbourne,
