npHESE are distinct preparations,|and are A for the cure oi Liver Affections, Gout, Rheumatism, ana Sympathetic Pains ; also, for such diseases as may require a mild and active aperient, anon as Bilious Complaints, v Indigestion, Flatulence, &c. And the wonder- v ful cures effected by them are unparalleled, for proof of which the reader is referred to the pamphlet, which contains a large number of testimonials trom some of the best known residents in the Australian colonies. Some of them testifying that after forty years suffering they have been completely cured by these valuable remedies. Amongst theße are letters from Captain Lawrence, of Lloyd's Rooms, Melbourne ; J. J. Shillinglaw, Esq, Government Shipping Master; his Honor Judge Hackett , A. Cumming, Esq, late of New Zealand ; H. M. Levinge, Esq, Greymouth ; J. S. Wagner, Esq, Hokitika ; R. C.

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 not courage or desire to acquaint their 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 Culverwell, of London, who made these diseases his special practice. In all those diseases relating and pertaining to Married Life, and which make marriage a curse rather than a blessing, Mr L. L. SMITH can be consulted with 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 feels that he is exhausted and physically prostrated, and incapable of exertion without great fatigue, then aud there the person so situated should at once consult Mr L. L. Smith before disease of a more serious character sets in; the above arises frequently from the enervating influence of hot climates, but frequently from other causes ox a more serious nature. Palpitations iv the heart, a tendency also to be easily startled and alarmed, is another phase of disease which requires particular attention, as arising from a most important cause ; those wno suffer from the abovchave not-— ■ ; "... ..;.'• ' . '.-'. " Mixa reason with pleasure, Ana wisdom with mirth." But have, on tne contrary, been guilty of a secret vice, which has, as it were, eaten into their very vitais. Many "old young men" consult me, wno, though young in years, have, through the vice above alluded to, and from their having been quacked by the unqualified ana unskilful medical man, at last given up all nope and succumbed, and are aged in their very youth, unfitted to fulfil - the duties which they were sent on this earth to penorm. "Be wise no-day, 'tis madness to defer, . Procrastination is the thief of time." Mr L. L; 13MITH wishes to impress on those who are laboring under diseases -which cannot be treated by the general medical attendant, tiom insufficient knowledge and practice, that as an expert in these diseases, he has the right to warn the public at large against the numoer of blatant charlatons and quacks who not only extort the money out of the pocket* of the patients, but are continually ruining the health of the unfortunate sufferers. Many hundreds yearly present themselves to mm from all the different colonies, who. are thoroughly bankrupt in health and pocket, ana they then lament, when too late, the horrible deception which has been practised on them. JNot'only ao men deceive these unfortunate victims by pretending to be legally-qualified men, but they advertise for sale, and swindle the public, by belling bottles of muck, under' the name of "Dr Ricord's Essence of Life," "Balm of Jsvnacum," and a mass of other quackeries, waose sole province is to extract money out oi the pockets of their deluded victims. Will the puoiic never understand that the only guarantee tney can have that they will be honestly ana skilfully treated, is the fact that the peruuu to whom they apply for advice is alegauy-qualified medical man who has devoted mv time to the branch of practice for whica the patient is seeking aid? Secondly, that ma long residence in the place, and his position, is at least a guarantee of the estimation in which he is held by his fellow-citizeu*. \. , Dr. L. L SM.ITH can be consulted by letter ; fee, £L ;*• By the abi.*« means any male or female patient can, dv describing, their symptoms, avoid the, in many cases, unpleasantness of a jersonal interview, and the patient can 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, &p. ' ' . Mr L. LT HMITH consults personally daily, mornings before 11, and evenings be« tween 7 and 9. 192 Bouike street east, Melbourne.
