To those who have tried their family medical adviser without the desired relief. And to those who suffer from Spermatorrhoea; j and other fearful results of indiscretion in youth. Dr. L. L. SMITH begs to stato he has devoted the whole of his life to the study and treatment of Syphilitic Diseases, and haviug successfully practised during the last twenty years in the colony, he suggests to all new arrivals the expediency of throwing off any false delicacy or modesty, and to at once apply and obtain that relief which their case requires, before the disease becomes utterly, incurable, and the unfortunate victim totally impotent. In one instance, married life can be made a blessing and a joy, and in Jhe other, a misery, self-reproach, and degradation. Dr. L. L. SMITH may be allowed to point out, that he is the only legally-qualified medical man practising in these case 3, and warns the public from applying to other advertising medical men, as a mere glance. at the medical register will show them to be impostors, preying upon the lives and pockets of suffering humanity.

A PARADOX.— TO SUFFERERS. NERVOUSNESS : ITS NATURE & CURE. What is Nervousness? — Various answers might be given to this question, according to the constitution and knowledge of the individual. Strong healthy persons, whether mfidJ£aJ!sr educated or not, generally regard neryo,iisoes3 a§ jnope ot lgsg an "imaginary cflmpfafiit f it is sometimej (jnfy believed is he real wften the patient is found to be Bying or dgaid, The best a'nsygr to -'the question, probably, is tUa—flpfpfflfsftess /« ## 'unnatural condition of the nervous ayatem, Sometimeg tots unnatural state is accompanied with considerable bodily weakness, loss of flesh and loss of strength ; but in most cases there is in the earlier stages of the disorder no outward sign of weakness. The sufferers are found in both sexes : they often have the bloom of health upon the cheek ; they are surrounded by kind frieuds, yet existence to them has no charms, for they feel that they cannot enjoy it. Without intending it, they annoy other people about the merest trifles ; if they encounter some person unexpectedly they feel confused, afraid, and alarmed ; the heart' b: ( eats vjejgntly, the hand shakes tvh'en writing, 'and the yljiole Xf<fWffi at times experiences a complete' tremuldusnegg. Th? intellect also" is sometimes 'clouaed, The memory tiffis, the judgment" becomes indistinct, the wfU pujpi'i'gfpfia and undecided, the tasfce vitiated, the imajfrriftifoift' i$PJ9.d« u fi°, n unpleasant topics, the spirits are yew tpmift vety excited, the ordinary' duties of Iffe become burdensome, society is shunned, and business neglected. A Staxge Spectacle. —lt is certainly strange, but not the less^true, that perfectly sanp .persons in the prime of life, with firm step and healthy countenance, may occasionally bo met with, wux>, }n spite of possessing all the advantages of educatw'u; rpjjijion, ample nieans, and kind friends, nevertheless are victims of the nervousness abore described j unhappy themselves, they render other people unhappy. Why is this ? What cause has operated to change the cheerful, acfjye, obliging, unsuspecting, and uncomplaining jwjfh into the unhappy, drowsy, listlest, suspicious, anxj. gj^.qmy misanthrope ? Many causes, or one cause only',"n}»y operate to produce this sad state ; the cause may be either mental or phypical, or both combined. A ttenipts tfi.Ou.iK Nervousness by ineang:of ordinary tonics have so frequently proved fruitless thaf; (he leading physicians now for the most pflrfc ' rcCjO^nend hygienic means, such as exercise ua th,e open . air, regular habits, sea bathing, the cold bath friction ; change of air and scene, as in travelling. If nil tfjp^e fail, as they often do, what is to be lone ?
