ADVICE.

WiEN Professional Men, eminent for skill
and expeiience, offer their advice,. and exert their
abilities, for the cure of a few reigning Diseases, they rise su-
perior to that prejudice which is so instly excited against the
advertisements tit men, ignorant of the first 'principles, and
uneducated in the practice of physic.
,Nessrs. Cultnn: and
Co. regular Surgeons, sanetioned_by every pH% ilege to prac-
tice< and by the uniform success Which their mode of treat-
menj for 'Venereal Complaints has hitherto been attended,
cimtinne with the same assiduity to direct their studies to the
cure of every species of that baneful poison, as Well as -the re-
moval of thost:distressing debilities and deficiencies %;-liielt

of human infirmities there arc none more afflicting- than those
which arc the unavoidable consequences of an indulgence in

over his misfortunes,- ashatneirto seek relief, until he is re-
duced to such a state of misery as,to render life oppressive.
To such persons it Will be a conslding reflection to -know that
they may now, by a new and infallible remedy, be restored
to their former coostitutional strengtti and vigour. Weak,
relaxed,' and debilitated - habits, proceeding either from an
excess of Conjugal and illicit plea Sore, or fi um a long reti-
dence.ist but climates, hard drinking, the injudicious use of
mercury, eec„ are speedily restored to health and strength.
It must be a self-eVident propositien, that where the ag-
gregate of intellectual capacity is directed to the treatment
and cure of a few peculiar comptaitits, there must be tht
greater certainty of success"; and as a proof of this positim
their metliod of cure is so particularly expeditious, as well
as safe, and so evidently superior to the common practice,
that 'n stone slight eases, of infection a perfect restoration is
completed in the short period of three days, and in those-of
the utmost inveteracy, where other-p-aetitioners have failed,
a proper per-severance in their plan of treatment ensures to
the patient a safe, well-grounded, and lasting re-establish-
ment. By an early application, he patient will escape the
' danger and expenee of a tedious attendance upon the less ex-
perienced practitioner. In the most obstinate and compli-
cated cases of vefiereal infection, such as.obstructions in the
urethra, spungy excrescences., hard tumours, callous ulcers,
eruptions, seminal weakness, sleets, as, also STRICTURE'S,
whether recent or of long duration, and which have baffled
the skill of other practitioners, are, by their present improved
plan if treatment, effectually and, permitHently cured, with-
out the patient suffering the excruciating pain and alarming
hemorrhage which frequently follows the application of the
lunar caustic. In the course of lan years extensiye practice in
this metropolis, numerous cases of strictures have been and
are daily- under their care, the total eradication of which is
effected by a safe, certain, and expeditious mode of practice,
superior to ;any other yet adopted: The weakness, relaxa-
tion, and debility proceeding from this complaint, is speedily
removed, and the patient restored to sound and vigorous
health. But where the debility has for years existed, a pro-
per perseverance in their restorative remedies, after 'the
stricture has been destroyed, is .indispensably requisite to
reeive the slumbering sparks of life, and to re-animate the
constitution.

IMPORTANT DOCUMENT.

ANSWER OF THE DUKE OF RAGUSA TO THE PRO-,

CLAMATION DATED GULPH OF JUAN, MARCH 1,
1815. .

An odious accusation is brought against me in
the face of all Europe, and whatever -may be the
marks of passion and improbability wilich it bears,
my honour compels me to reply to it. What I
here offer is not a justification, 'of which I have
no. need ; it is a faithful exposition of facts, which
will enable every one to appreciate the conduct

I have pursued.
I am accused of having delivered Paris to fo-
Feigners, when the defence of that city was the
object of general astonishment. It was with some
Miserable remains that I had .to combat against
all the collected forces of the allied armies; it was
in positions hastily taken, where no defence bad
been prepared, and with 8000 men, that I re-
sisted for eight hours 45,000, who were succes-
sively engaged against uie ; and it is a military
feat of -sitch- a sort, so honourable to all engaged
in it, that has been audaCiOnsly charged as
treason !

Atte"' the affair at Rheims, the Emperor Napo-
leon operated on the Marne with almost ali his
forces, and gave himself up to the illusion that
his movements threatening the communications of
the enemy, the latter would retreat ; while,- on. ,
,the contrary, the enemy resolved, after having
formed the junction of the Silesian army with the
grand army, to march upon Paris. My weak army-
corps, composed of 3,500 infantry, -and 1,500
horSe, and that of the Duke of. Treviso, amount-
ing to from. 6 to 7,000 ineni„were left upon the
Aisuc, -to keep in check the army' of Silesia,
only separated from us 'by that river, and which,
after the, junction of Bulow's corps, and variocs
reinforcement 3 amounted to more than eighty
thousand men. The. enemy's army passed the
Aisne, anti forced us to fall back. My instructions
being to cover Paris, we retired upon Fistnes; and
the Duke orTrevisoand myself adopted a system
of operations, which, without. comptomising•-osi
was calculated to-ret;ird the march of tneynemv :
this was by successively taking iip'strong positions
Which the. enemy could not attack without fem.'''. -
twitting or. without manoeuvring to turn them, a
, course which thus Prepared ns the means of beat-
ing some of his deta(shments. Chalets arrived for
our proceeding by forced marches 'upon Chlloos,
We executed theta ; but on reaching Vettas, we
were'intormed, that the greater part of the ene-
my's,atiny oectipiedChalons,winleatiiither division
of it debonehed. upon Epernay ; and t'at Kleist's
corps, which had followed
_us, was passing the
Marne at Chateau-Thierry. Learning at the same-
time that Napoleon was still before Vitry, and nad
rear-guard lit Sum mepuis, we marched without los-
ing a moment to join him, and on the 24111Mmeh
I took a position at South'''. 1 still thought the
French army at hand; for who, •in reality, could,

a bridge, and that the Emperor Napoleon‘would
have left, between Parig and himself, forces eight-
fold
.more considerable than those he could col-
lect ? .On the morning of the 25th, 1 hack scarcely
learned the certainty of this movement, when- the
Whole enemy's army debonched upon me. I re-
tired cannonading the enemy, and the whole ;
retreat, would have been made with the same
order, had not some troops, which unfortunately
remained at Hussy-l'Estree and Vatry, thus found
themselves. in our rear : it became necessary to
Wait for them an hour at Sommesous, and main-
tain ourselves against colossal forces, whose num-
bers were constantly itwreasing : the passage of
the defiles cost us some losses, and we terminated
We day by taking a position on the heights of
Allement, close to Sezatine.• I do not speak at
all of the division of General Pacthod, which, in
pursuance of-direct orders from the Emperor, ma-
nmuvred on its own account, tell in with the .ene-
my's army, -and was taken, without my knowing
even its existence. •

Early next day we took a po'sition at the defile
of Tourneloup. The'enemy coining up, we con,
timed our retreat, and 1 formed the rear-guard.
Having 'arrived in the evening before lizt• .1:,:i14-
Gaucher, we found the corps of Kleist occupying
that toivn, with. cavalry, on the
_great road of Con-
lommiers, ‘vhile,another large corps of cavalry ex-
tended ,beyond the left of the enemy's army. Our
position was critical, it was almost desperate. We
got out of it by an unexpected piece of goott for-
tune. • Some of the Duke of Tyeviso's troops co-
vered our movementfrom the- corps of Kleist ; an
heroic defence of my. tr6Ops in .the .village of
Moods, stopped the •enemy's-% advanced guard,
night came on, and we etfected our movement

without any loss. As we could no longer resume
the route-of Meaux we-took that of Charenton,.
