IT has been too frequently the subject of just and general reprobation, that men destitute of the elements of the medical art have offered themselves as candidate. fir public patronage in the profession of Physic. For the purpose of doing justice to the result of our smile. and experience, and to prevent us from being classed among these empiric. whose impudent pre tensions have, unfortunately for society, been too ftvourably re• ceived, we beg leave to submit to the liberal and enlightened, a faithful statement of our pursuits and acquirements. After having received a regular medical education, as the pupils of Messrs. (;Tindal and Blizard, whose lectures and practice we csrefully attended, as Professors and Surgeons of theLundon Hos • pital, we entered ourselves as students in that justly celebrated school for medical acquirements, the Royal College of Edin burgh, and were instructed in the different branches of Anatomy, Surgery, the '1 henry and Practice of Physic, Chemistry, Mid ! wifery, Botany, &c. &c. &c. by those eminent Protestors, Drs. 1 , Mourn, Gregory, Black, Hamilton, Dttecan, and Rutherford. We trust we shall not be deemed presumptuous in saying, that I our proficiency and acquirements are not inconsiderable. Having for a long series of years made VENEREAL COMPLAINTS, and the various diseases of DEBILITY, the particuhsr object of our studies and practice, it will, we hope, be allowed that wehave acquired superior knowledge of their treatment and care. In slight and recent cases of infection, a perfect r:-establishment is completed in the short period of two days, and in those of the utmost inveteracy, where ot h er practitioners have failed of suc cess, a proper perseverance in our plan of treatment ensures to the patient a safe and radical cure. Amidst the melancholy variety of disorders which are the ef fects of a habit long and most unhappily pursued by the youth of both sexes, there are none more alarming or more distressing than those deficiencies and debilities which frequently prevent or em bitter the matrimonial state. To such persons it must be a COR• soling reflection to know that they may now, by a new and infal lible mode of treatment, be restored to that greatest of all human blessings, a strong, manly, and vigorous constitution. In all cases of debility, from whatever cause arising, as well as In every spe cies of Venereal infection, we may be consulted by patients of either sex with the greatest secrecy and honour. Hours of con su'tation at home from ten to three, and from six in the evening till ten at night. Patients in the country are requested to state the particulars of their case, age, and general habit of living, &c. inclosing a remit tance for advice and medicines, when the same will be given or sent to any part of the kingdom. To ensure that secrecy so es wadel to our undertaking, the postage of letters may be added KU the account for medicines. CURRIIi ad Co. Pirrone, No, 07, Hatton•Gardena DR.

An acquaintance of mine, who by the breaking out of an old Venereal Complaint (attended by a complication of di4ortlen arising therefrom) was reduced almost to a skeleton, and altho' he had the best medical advice which could he obtained, and tried a variety of patent medicines, nothing could be procured which seemed to suit his case, or do him any service ; he retrained in a most reduced and pitiable situation for two years, unable to fol low his profession, and scarcely able to walk or even to stand on his legs ; in fact, no one who knew him ever supposed it possible for him to recover. He was advised at last to try your Leake's Pills—he did so, adhering strictly to the directions given with them—lie had not taken more than two boxes, before he found an alteration for the better—this encouraged him to proceed and by taking a few boxes more he found his api etite and strength gradually return, and is now as healthy and stout as any man, know. You are welcome, Sir, to refer any person to me for a confirmation of the above account, if it should be doubted. I am Sir, your obedient humble servant, THOMAS PURDAY.

GIL BERT's VEGETABLE ANTISCOR, BUTIC DROPS, in bottles at 22e. and a smaller size at 4s. 6d.—The variety of diseases that prevail at this season of the year, generally originating from impurities of the blood, a vitia ted stomach, or obstructed perspiration, it is with the fullest con fidence of success that wee trenuously recommend this unrivalled medicine to public notice, as being a certain preventative and cure for numerous diseases, particularly the land and sea scurvy, cancers, king's evil, ulcerated sore legs, running wounds in any part of the body, leprosy, eruptions after the small-pox or mea sles, inflammation in the eyes, St. Anthony's fire, rheumatism and rheumatic gout, slow, nervous, and it termitting fevers, add all the ong train of disorders svltich attend the scurvy internally. The following remarkable instance of the wonderful effects of the VEGETABLE ANTISCORBUTIC DROPS, In those dreadful diseases termed the Scrophula, was attest.el before Sir John Wilmot Prideaux, Bart. chief of his Mars: y's Jus tices of Peace for the County of Devon. 92d of Dealember, 1801: 1, : . olomon Aiming, of Colyton, in the said County, Stone mason, was, about five years ago, seized with a violent pain in my side and head; soon after, a humour broke in my neck, near the collar-bone, and became a desperate wound; in about three weeks after three more wounds broke out below my ear, and a large gathering appeared on the other side of my neck, which caused suck extreme pain I could not gain any rest night or day. 1 then took a bottle of Dr. Gilbert's Vegetable Antiscor butic Drops, soon after those wounds healed, and the hunra.t l esated, but not pet severing in the medicine a sufficient time, s i fo'ent swelling affected one of my legs, and my knee became so • iff and enlarged, the faculty deemed it a white swelling, anl t 'eated it as such for a considerable time. I now became a per' feet cripple, soon after my afflictions were greatly increased by a powerful inflammatory humour, which settled in my eyes and nearly deprived me of sight; my whole frame now became bur .thened with this disease; the crutches whic h I had long used . were no longer of use, I became confined :o my bed. The last advice I had from my surgeon was to get myself removed too na I , of the London In fi rmaries, this I did not approve of, it app e • ced doubtless : whether I could undertake the journey. At my lent? request I put myself a second time under a coarse of Dr. Gilbert, 1 Vegetable Antiscorbutic Drops, resolving to give them a fair trial ; the wonderful effects produced a favourable alteration, and , by the time 1 had taken seven or eight bottles, I became a . seand man, every wound healed, my 1:7 heed knee returned to the ir fo•- nier size and strength, having for several months not felt the least symptom of the aforesaid complaints, And I enjoy a very gotal state of health.
