The Latest American Invention. THE VICTORY OF ELECTRICITY.

Medical Diseased Nature oftentimes breaks forth in •trange eruptions."—Act iii, Scene 1. TO THE PUBLIC. SOME patients suffering from nervous affettions are afraid from sheer bashfulness and modesty to peesonaiix consult a medical men —other patients hare not the self'posteesion and coolness when in the consulting room, to accurately describe their symptoms-—their habits of life, and the nature of the disease they Buffer from. Let such persons (he or she) sit quietly down in the privacy of their own apartments, and with calm minds describe clearly each symptom of their case, a clear statement thus written, and laid bofore me is, far preferable in HSBTOTTB diseases to a personal consultation. Where, however, a disease is of a peculiar and exceptional character, a personal ooneultation may become necsssary; but my success in correspondence is so great, that of the thousands upon thousands whom I have treated by letter during the last 32 years, not a single mistake has ever occurred, not a case has ever been made public—in fact the very simplicity of my system of correspondence prevents publicity. At the same time medicines are sent to my patients in such a form as to defy detection. How many thousands have I not brought joytoP How many have been enabled to enter into the marriage state through consulting me ? How many after marriage have privately consulted me end been blessed and their married lives made fruitful and happy. How many wasted ruined youths of both sexes have also been restored to health, and thanked their manhood, for having consulted me by letter. How many questions arise where the family physician is unable to unravel the case and where often the patient lingers on, not daring to tell his family medical adviser the nature of his complaint, until consumption wasting, or mental diseases, set in and the sufferer gets beyond the curiable stage, and is left a hopeless wreck. A letter writton in the privacy of the room and dropped in the post box reaches me quietly; the answer is returned as quietly and unostentatijusly, and the patient, without stepping from his chamber, except to post his letter, is by return of post put in full possess sion of the nature of his oaee. His hopes are rrised his doubts removed, and he is comparatively a new man; in fact, in many cases, • new being altogether.. The only addition to the ordinary written letter is the age occupation, habits and symptoms, nothing more. The usual consultation fee of £1 (one pound) must be enclosed, otherwise no auewer will be returned. There are thousands of cases in daily life where a consultation with one at a distance will remove by a single letter a great fear, a great care, and it often solves what appears as an impenetrable mystery. Many a sad heart haß been made joyful on receipt of an explanatory letter from me. To thoee who are about to. marry, I would say consult me before doing bo, and thus prevent many after troubles, and remove many unnecessary fears and prejudices; to those, more especially, who have suffered in early years from disease, or whoj have yielded to their passions. To these I say, at once, ooneult with me, do not tarry, delays are dangerous, and as an expert, my time may not bo always at your service, you can, by ismply enclosing one pound, have the benefit of my experience in the same manner as if I lived in your town, and with the additional advantage of thorough privacy.—Yours, truly, LOUIS L. SMITH Address— DB L. L. SMITH. 182 COLLINS STREET EAST Melbourne. CONSULTATION FEE BY LETTER, £1 Fee for personal Consultation, £1 1. The lutter is inclusive of Medicine.
