fTIHESE are distinct preparations, f and are X for the cure oi Liver Affections, Gout, Rheumatism, ana Sympathetic Pains ; also, for such diseases oh may require a mild and active aperient, such as Bilious Complaints, Indigestion, Flatulence, &c. And the wonderful cures effected by them are unparalleled, for proof of which the reader is referred to the pamphlet, which contains a large number of testimonials irom some of the best known residents in the Australian colonies. Some of them testifying that after forty years suffering they nave been completely cured by these valuable remedies. Amongst these are letters from Uavtain Lawrence, of Lloyd's Rooms, Melbourne ; J. . J. Shillinglaw, Esqj Government Shipping Master j his Honor Judge Hackett , . A. Cnmming, Esq, late of New Zealand ; H. M. Levinge, Esq, Greymouth ; J. S. Wagner, Esq, Hokitika ; R. C. Spencer, Esq, Invercargill ; besides a variety of othera. These remedies may be obtained through the wholesale agents, as above, of Messrs Felton, Grimwade and Co, Flinders-lane, Melbourne ; and retail through any chemist or storekeeper. Messrs Witt and.

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 and 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 ot a more serious nature. Palpitatioua oi the heart, a tendency also to be easily startled and alarmed, is another phase of diseaae which requires particular attention, as arising from a most important cause ; those who suffer from the above have NOT— " Mix a reason with pleasure, Ana wisdom with mirth.'* But have, on cne contrary, been guilty of. a secret vice, which has, as it were, eaten into their very vitaiß. Many "old young men" consult me, who, though young in. years, have, through Che 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 pertotm. "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, ttom insufficient knowledge and practice, thau *s an expert in these diseases, he has the njrat 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 him 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 do men deceive these unfortunate victims by pretending to be legally-qualified men, but they auvertise for sale, and swindle the public, by selling bottles of muck, under the name of "Drßicord's Essence of Life," "Balm of hynacum," and a mass of other quackeries, wnose sole province is to extract money out ot the pockets of their deluded' victims. Will the puDlic never understand thai; the only guarantee they can have that they will be honestly ana skilfully treated, is the fact that the penton to whom they apply for advice is a legally -qualified medical man who has devoted tun time to the branch of practice for whica the patient is seeking aid? Secondly, that ms long residence in the place, and his position, is at least a guarantee of the estimation in which he is held by his fellow-pitizeiM. Dr. L. L. (SMITH can be consulted by letter; fee, £1. • By the abo*« means any male or female patient can, »v describing Bymptoms, avoid the, in many cases, unpleasantness of a personal 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, &c. Mr L. L- HMITH consults personally daily, mornings before 11, and evenings be- ; tween7and9. 192 Bourke street east, Mel* ' bourne.
