Medical SPECIALITY! SPECIALISTS! Draw on Nature—she compels you to honour the acceptance. nnHIRTY years Binee,when De Smith first. i commenced practice here, it whs thought by medical men, that to be a Specialist was derogatory to the professional man, but this, like most other innovations in scientific anct lay matters, was found rather to aid than to be " infra dig " to that profession, wherein the speciality was practised. Lallemand and Ricord, in France, and Acton, in England, I were for years cried, down by their medical brethren. Now and ior many paßt years they have been looked up to, and quoted, by every man who pretends to have any knowledge of the particular branch of the profession which theso'gentlemen specially devoted themselves to. It was the same with Erasmus Wilson, the "Skin Doctor," recently knighted by Her Majesty. , Years since, it was the same with Dr. L. L.' Smith, of Melbourne, who practised (as did Lallemand and Kicord) as a specialist. In all cases of diseases and habits which produce symptoms of Nervous Affections, of Skin Eruptions, of Prostration, aud make human beings invirile, or which unfit them to carry ; . on the purposes of their being,, or which demonstrates itself, on the other hand,. in Eruptive Diseases and Secondary Forms of Affections. In all of these cases how nacf sary it is to have the Specialist who^S'u devoted his whole lifetime to the studying at d practising in this one branch of his pro?. fession? Hence, now, after so many yean, all minutiae are familiar to him, and symptoms which (it is not unreasonable to suppoM) may not strike the General Practitioner at once, now from constant practice and observation made Dr. L. L. Smith master of the' * subject. ■2'he medical profession—that is, the more liberal-minded of them—have likewise recognised this fact, and Specialists now in every branch—oculists, aurists, syphilic, mental die* eaees, cheat diseases, and in fact every portion of the human frame, has now some member of the profession who devotes his time to that, and to none other. For instance, the " chest doctor" would on no account attend an accouchement, and the oculist would not think of setting a broken leg ; but each would advise his patient to go to that doctor who is most famed for treating the dieeaee requiring special skill. Db L. L. Smith asks those who require treatment; for Weakness, Prostration, Barren* ness, and Sterility, whose frames and whose ' constitutions are shattered, to consult him at an expert—thirty (30) years practice in this colony, with a practice extending throughout not only the Colonies but in India, China, Fiji, and even in England, he claims ought to be sufficient to cause every man or woman requiring such skill as is alluded to above, to consult him either personally or by letter. As a Syphilographer no other medical man . has been able to have such large experience as he possesses, and for other allied affections— such as Nervous disease—no one in the profession has enjoyed so much public confidence. „ DEL. ~SMITH.
