Medical. SPECIALTY! SPECIALISTS!" Draw on Nature— she compels you to honor the acceptance, mHIRTY YEARS since, when Dr SMITH JL first commenced practice here, it w«8 > thought by medical men, that to be a Bpe* • cialist was derogatory to the professional man, but this, like most other imnovationa i» scientific and lay matters, was found rather to aid than to be " infra dig " to that profes sion, wherein the specialty waa practised. Lallemand and Ricord, in France, and Actes, in England, were for years cried tlowa by. their medical brethren. Now and for aaa&y pa9t years they have been looted up to, •** quoted, by every man who pretends to har* any knowledge of the particular braaeh of the profession whick these gentlemen aped- . ally devoted themselvesito. It was the same with Erasmus Wilson, "the " Skia Doctbr."" recently knighted by Her Majesty. '- • Tears since, it was the same with Dr X. L Smith, of Melbourne, who practised (as, Aid Lallemand and Ricord) as a specialist; In all cases of diseases and habits which pr«. v duce symptoms of Nervous Afftctions, 9(1. Skin Eruptions, of Prostration, and make human beings invirile, or whick unfit tkeitto carry on the purposes of their hnag, or which demonstrates itself, on the other haail, in Eruptive Diseases and Secondary Fornaii o€ Affections. In all of these cases how fttibto/ sary it ia to have the Specialist who haa cje» voted his whole lifetime to the studyiof and practising in this one branch of hit profes» sion ? Hence, now, after so many yeari , all minutiae are familiar to him, and aymptotts which (it is not unreasonable ts suppose) may not Btrike the General Practitioner at once, now from csnstaat practice amd o1»8«r» vation make Dr L. L. Smith master of th« subject The medical profession — that ia, th« met* liberal-minded of them— hare lik«wiie recognised this fact, and Specialiete how in every branch — oculists, auriate, «yphillip mental diseases, chest, difieaeea, and ia fact every portion of the. human frams, hat n»w some member of the profession who dey»t«B his time to that, and to noni other. F»r instance, the "chest-doctor" w*uld oft *• account attend an accouchment,. andi.tka oculist would not think of setting » breltwa leg ; but each would adviss his patient to/g* to that doctor who is most famed fos 'treating. the disease requiring special tkilL " . . [ DrL. L. Smith asks those wh* require treatment for Weakness, Prostration, Barrw ness, and Sterility, whose, frames and whose constitutions are shattered, to consult him in an expert—thirty (30) years practice ia this colony, with a practice extending througkmt not only the colonies but in India, China, Fiji, and even in England, he claims cragfet to be sufficient to cause every' main or w#ma« requiring such skill as is alluded to above, to consult him either personally or by letter. As a Syphilographer no other medical max has been able to have such large experieact as he possesses, and for other allied afleekions —such, as Nervous diseaaeß—no oneia.the profession Has enjoyed so much public eon* ridence.
