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 Buch 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 berhg 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 influr ence of hot climates, but frequently from . other causes, ot a more serious nature. PalpitationH or the heart, a tendency also to be easily startled and alarmed, is another phase of disoaue which requires particular attention,, as arising from a most important cause ; those wno suffer from the al wo have ' : NOT— rfii , ■• v •_„ = ... -■«• : : rn : ; " Mixa reason with pleasure, ' Arid Wisdom with mirth." - But have, on tne contrary, been guilty of a' ■ secret vice, wiilcri has, as it were, eaten into! their very vitais. Many "old young, men' i consult • me, who, though young in years, have, through trie vice above alluded to, and from their havinjf been quacked by the unqualified ana unskilful medical man, at last given up ah nope and succumbed, and are' aged " in their very . youth, unfitted to fulfil the duties wnlcn they were, sent on this earth to penorm. _ ... ;. /^ .'.- ..".V,'1:".... .'.',. .!'■. \ "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, trorn insufficient knowledge and Eractice, that as an expert in these diseases, c has the rijem; to warn the public at large against the numoer'of blatant charlatons and. quacks who not pnly_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 tnoroughly bankrupt in health and pocket, and they then lament, when too' late, the horrible deception which has been practised ontnein. : v f : Not only do men deceive these, unfortunate victims by pretending to be legally^qualified men, but tney advertise for sale,' arid swindle the public, by. selling, bottles of muck, under, the name of "J)r Ricord's Essence of Life," " Balm of fcjynacum," 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 that the only guarantee tney can have that they will be honestly aria 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 pracj tice for whica the patient is seeking aid ? Secondly, that nis long residence in the place, and his position, is at least a guarantee of the estimation in which he is. held by his fellow-citizen*, Dr. L. L. SMITH can be consulted 1 by letter ; fee, £1, 1 - : By the above means any male or female I 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 1 observation are aent to all parts of the colonies, with plain letters of; instruction as to diet, &c.' '"•'"■ Mr L.
