TO THOMAS TAYLOR, ESQ.
NO. 9,,New Bridge-street, London.
HONOURED S: ft, . Edinburgh, March 18.
y BEG leave to inform you, that ever since the
year 1790, I bad been afflicted -with the Lena VeriVred ;
which, from its obstinately resisting every course at medicine
prescribed by the most eminent of the faculty here, '.ind un-
dergoing several severe courses of salivation, and trice dis-
charged from the Hospital with little relief, would appear to
he of the most inveterate nature. In the spring of last year
my disorder had got to such a head, as nearly to pitta period
to:my existence—l had a large ulcer on the crown of my head,
one'on each arm, and my legs were brain; out id a frightful
manner; my right was deefulfrilly painful, and had been in 'a
state of ulceration for the last seven yeses; my left had also
two large nodes on it, was vary much dikeolourcri„ and gave
me such, excruciating pain, particularly when warm in lied,.
as nearly to deprive me of rest ; in this laureQtable state, I
was recommended by Mr. J. Thompsou, (whir ssaeived so
great a cure by themliere), to take your Leake's Patent Pills,
which l'begau to do on the 52Gth of May ; in the course of a
f;ietiught I began to receive benefit—in little more than a
nand/.h ;he ulcers on my head and arias were.soundly healed—
soots .-kiter, the sores on my legs healed also; leaving, how-
ever, e(msiderable discolour-at ion in the shin, and pain in the
hoK.. 0f.t,..! left, which, by the blessing of God, and a Buie
longer persevo•ance in your invaluable Medicine, snirsided
the nudes djspersiNi the skin regaining its natural brie, and
the nocturnarpains gs-adaally going off.--1 thus, became, by
your liberel advice zind rizrlicine, perfectly free from all my
former cianplaints—have reNvered my f,-;:.arer spirits and
strength.; aod am becousejolly ai:d fat, in which stain having
continued many months to the astoaisliment of all who knew
me, I am ata loss in what terms to express my gratitude, but
beg you, for the good of other suffering mortals, to make
this ruv'ease as publiC as possible, as I stud,' on every occa-
sion; in so doing you will greatly oblige,
Sir, your grateful,.obedient, very

ADVICE. •
Professional. Men,
.eminent for skill
11% and experience, offer their advice, and exert their
abilities, for the cure of a few reigning Diseases, they rise'su-
perior to that prejudice winch is so Justly excited against the •
mit'ertiSements ot. men, ignerant, of the first-prinCiples, -and
uneducated in the practice of physic. Messrs. CUItRIE and
Co. regular Snrgeon3, sanctioned by every privilege to prac-
tice, and by.the 'aniferin success which their mode of treat-
ment for Venereal Complaints has hitherto been attended;
continue with the saute assiduity tq direct-their studies to,the
cure of every species of that baneful poison, as well as the re-
moval of those distressing
,debilities and deficiencies which
prevent or embitter the matrimonal state.' In the catalogue
of hinnan infirmitiee there are none more afflicting than those
which are the unavoidable consequences of -an indulgence in
a certain (destructive habit. The unhappy sufferer broods,
over his misfortunes, ashamed to'seek relief, until he is 're-
duced to such a state of misery as to render life opptessive.
To suth persons, it will be a consoling reflection to know*that
they. may now, by, a new and infallible remedy, be restored
•to their former constitutional strength and rigour. Weak,
relaxed, and debilitated habits, proceeding either from an ."
excess of conjugal and illicit pleasure, or from a long resi-
dence ib but climates; hard drinking, •the injudieimee use of
mercury, eze. are speedily restored to health and strength.
It must he a self-evident proposition, that where the ag-
gregate of intellectual capacity is directed to the ttin
eei;ent
and cure of a few peculiar complaints, there must he the:
'greater certainty of success; and as a proof of this positiot
the ii method of cure is so particularly expeditious, as well
as' safe,-7.enttso evidentlyeesuperior to the common practice,
that in some slight cases of infection a perfect restoration is
complettel in the -ehurt periwi ckf three day's, and in those of
the utmost inveteracy, 'tell'ere other prae;.:ll'eners have failed,
a proper perseverance in their plan of treatment enstte:::: to
the patient a safe, well-grounded, and' lasting re-establish-.
went. By an early• application, the patient will escape the
danger and-expenee of a tedious attendance upon the less ex-
perienced. practitioner. •In the most obstinate and compli-
., cited cases of venereal infection, such as obstructions in the
urethra, springy excrescences, bard tumours, callous ulcers,
erupt-runs, seminal weakness, gleets, as also STRICTURES,
wheth cr recent or of lung duration,-and which, have baffled
the skill of other practitioners, are, by their present improved
plan of treatment, effectually and permanently cured, with,
oat the. patient suffering the excruciating pain and alarming-
hemorr bags which frequently follows the appligation of tlict
lunar caustic. In the course of 20 years extensive practice in
this metropolis, numerous cases of strictures have been and
are daily under their care, the total eradication of which N
effected by, a safe, certain, and expeditions mode of practice;
superior to any other yet adopted. The weakness, relaxa-
tion, andelebility 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
revive the slumbering sparks of life, and to re-animate the
constitution
• Several Noblemen' and Gedtlemen of the first respectabi-
lity have been under the care of Messrs. Currie and Co. f,.ir
the removal of complaints of the Urethra, Strictures, &C.;
and having.received.a.raffleal and permanent cure, request
that rfereuces may he made to them, as satisfactory evidence;
of'the decisive superiority of Messrs. Carrie and Co.'s Wan
of treatment. Many of these Gentlemen have had Strictures'
from 10 to 20 years, and had been under the care of Messrs.
Hoinefilleavisides, and other Surgeons of equal eminence,
who attempted the cure by the application of the lunar
caustic, without success.
