Up, my friend, and clear your looks ; Why all this toil and trouble ?" A LL those who are suffering from de-i XJu spondency, 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 CDmplaints, having been a pupil and assr > ant of the late DrCulverwell, 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 of a more serious nature. Palpitations oi 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 alwehave NOT-^- ■•" ':; ■' '' : ■• " ; : :" r : ' ■ •"■■ : : ■ . ■ . ■ I ; " Mix # a reason, with pleasure, Ana ■wisdom with mirth." : But have, on' tine contrary; been guilty of a^ secret vice, which has, as it were, eaten into their very vitais. Many " old young men 1 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 to-day, 'tis madness to defer, Procrastination is the thief of time." ■ Mr L. L; SMITH wishes i:o impress on those who are laboring under diseases which cannot be treated by. the, general medical attendant, trom 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. M«ny hundreds yearly present themselves to nim from all the different colo-l nies, who are thoroughly bankrupt in health and pocket, ana they then lament, when too late, the horrible deception which has. been practised on tnem. ' Hot only dp 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 ".Or Ricord's Essence of Life," "Balm of byriacum," and a mass ofs . other - quackeries,, wnose sole ; province is to, extract money out oi. the pockets of /their, deluded victims.

Dr. L. L. SMITH can be consulted by letter; fee, £1. By the abovw means any male or female patient' can, dv describing their symptoms, 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. SMITH consults personally daily, mornings before 11, and evenings between 7 and 9. .192 Bourke street east, Mel. bourne, r ■ ' y
