No. 9, New Bridge-street, London HONOURED Sin, IBEG leave to inform yon, that ever men the year 1790, 1, had been afflicted with. the Liles Venerea;. which, from its obstinately resisting every coarse of medicine I prescribed by the most eminent of he faculty here, and un- . dergoing severalsevere courses of salivation, and twice dis charged from the Hospital with little relief, would appear to I be of the most inveterate' nature. In the spring of last year my disorder bad gat to such a head, as nearly to put a period to my existence-4 had a large ulcer on the crown of my head, one on each arm, and my legs were broke out in a fnightful • manner ; my right was dreadfully painful, and had been in a state of ulceration for the last seven years ; my left had also two large nodes on it, was very much discoloured, and gave me such excruciating pain, -particularly when warm 'in bed, as 'nearly to deprive me of rest ; is this lamentable state, was recommended by Mr. J. 'Thompson, (who received so • great itcure by them here), to take your Leake's Patent Pills, which I beg - an to do on the With of May; in the course of a fortnight I began to receive benefit •-in little more than a nsontli the ulcers on my head and arms were soundly healed— soon atter, the sores ma my legs healed also ; leaving, how ' ever, considerable discolouration in the skin, and pain in the bone of the left, which, by the blessing of God, and a little tenger perseverance in your invaluable Medicine, subsided ; the codes dispersing, the skin reg - •'•.;g its natural hue, and the nocturnal pains gradually going olf.—l thus became, by your liberal advice and medicine, perfectly free from all my former complaints—hare recovered my former spirits a red strength,and am become jolly and fat, in which state having continued many months, to the astonishment of all who ,knew site, I am at a loss in what terms to express my gratitude, but beg you, for the good of other sulfering mortals, to make this my case as public as possible, as .

THE Royal and Noble Patrons of the Uhtive INSTITUTION; for the exclusive Treatment of VE NEREAL COMPLAINTS, and their ditiagerpusconsecoenceS, in order to insure the benefits that have resulted from it, se lected Mr. KIERNAN as its surgeon, (standing 'high on the list of the Royal College) from having directed his chief at tention to those diseases. It is the misfortutic:of- Patients tinder such complaints, to . be too often the dupes of illite 7 rate, Pretenders, who practise on the credulity by,imposiug titles and specious promises. Against this class -(of late su numerous and daring), Mr. Kiernan conceives it a part of his official duty to caution the Public, by pointing to the List of the Royal College, published in Febi nary 181 e, as the only `sore guide, and that no assertion of Persons assuming such titles, and publicly advertising them, without being sanc tioned by this List, are to be credited-. The annual reports. of the Lock Dispensary will prck - e, that some of the most. dangerous cases of Strietnies,• Debility, and other supposed incuraide affections of the Generative Organs, have been here radically and successfully treated ; facts which require no hackneyed testimony of affiiavits to prove, but the most re spectable Mcdival evidence.

The identity of the Powder prepared by Mr: Newbery, , and that by Dr. James, is also ascertained by the Chemical Analysis of Mr. Professor l3rande, and Mr. Accum ;—and confirmed by the .marked. sanction given to Mr. Newbery's Preparation by the most re spectable Public Bodies whose Members are eminently quali fied to judge of its. Authenticity, and whose extensive orders be continues to supply. • From these Facts, which cannot be perverted by Sophistry, the Public will be convinced; that the assertion of Mr. lt.G. G.

XI I NWPS front LurrEas addressed to Dr. SOLOMON . , Gilead-House, near Liverpool, illus trating the effitacy of the CORDIAL BALM of GILEAD in those dith-,:ult and complicated Disorders for which it is pe culiarly adapted, being administered to the tender infant, the pregnant female, and to palsied age, with safety and efficacy , hitherto unparalleled in the annals of tnedical discovety Fitoat Dust.u.i.—G. Andrews, 33, Montgomery-street, writes thus :—I was for several months afflicted in amost un common manner, by all the alarming symptoms of a Dorsal Consumption, which threatened' daily to bring on a perfect Tabes Dorsalis, and had . the advice of some of the most cx perienced medical professors, but all to no purpose. The disorder seemed rather to be heightened by their prescrip tions; when' happily a friend of mine, who had been witness of the wonderful efficacy of your medicine in similar cases, advised me to try it, which I accordingly did, though despair ing of any relief; but to my great joy, and surprise, I found that after taking, one bottle, 4 was much stronger, which gave me spirits to persevere, and when I had used only four hot tlei, every symptom decreased gradually, /Ind I am now in a perfect state of health. S. Gwyno, No. 23, Mary's Abbey, says, I return you thanks for having, through the wonderful power of your truly va luâhle Medicine the Cordial Balm of Gilead, restored my wife from a linge'ring illness of nine years standing, to a per fect good state of health. The nature of her complaint was .a most severe Asthma, attended with loss of appetite and indi gestion, and every symtom of nervous decay, for which va fious remedies' were prescribed and taken, but to no good or lasting purpose, till recourse was bad' to your invaluable Cordial, four bottles of which perfectly restored her,to a state of health. J.' Carlos, No. 9, Montague-street, writes as follows : Having been for sonic months zonal affected by an oppres sion;ia my chest and lungs, aiid being advised'hy friend . to try your Cordial Balm of Gilead, on taking a few bottles I bare found the greatest relief from them, and I Make no doubt that a few bottlel more will restore me to my former good health. * o * It is impossible to insert all the cases and cures which Dr. Solomon is in possession of, as it would require some vu . lames; be contents himself with what has been inserted, great experience having convinced bins, that 'in all morbid affections of the blood and lymyh (the cause of almost every malady) so noble, safe, and. efficacious a remedy, was never offered to Mankind. As Dr. SOLOMON's practice has now become .so great and extensive, that his constant engagements require a consider able portion of his time and attendance, he expects, when. consulted, the usual coMpliment of One Pound :—but all written cases, or letters of advice, end unaccompanied with an order for medicine and remittance, to be answered at his leitiure, are required to encloie only half-a-guinea.—Drafts may be obtained at any Post-Office, payable at' Liverpool, for small sums of • money, which is a sure mode of conveyance.

GENTLEMEN,—There is an old and. (roe pro verb, that "good wine needs no _bush." If the same discrimination were exercied on exterior ob jects of taste, it would be economising wealth and practising wisdom.

Ido not address myself to those who are so mean as to live by a species of swin thing, though it is to be hoped thsy are not impervious to common sense: There are persons who im pose upon the Public their nostrums, and would fain make us 'believe in their,superior efficacy.— These deceptive characters, who are at war with fair dealing, and in alliance with adversity, not withstanding are deserving our pity. • The object of this Address is to guard the Trade against those Quacks who perambulate the City, and sell what they call Mackin, 13, 14, and even 15 bottles to, the dozen, of a quality and yt a price that the respectable parr, of the Trade will ,not buy it.
