Mir. 13ransby Cooper presents his compliments to Mr. Geo.

caey of his Solution of Copaiba in Gonorrhoea, for which dis-
ease Mr. Cooper has prescribed the Solution in ten or twelve
oases with perfect success.
" New-street, April 13,18,35."
From Alexander Tvreedie, Esq., Surgeon to the Metropolitan
ishest Hospital, Carey-street, Lincoln's Inn-fields.
My Dear Sir,—l have notes of six cases, in which I have
atirsialdstered your preparation of Copaiba, for the cure of Go-
bollixes, in all of which the disease has been subdued in a shorter
Period of time than according to the ordinary plans hitherto
made use of, Besides those cases of which I have taken notes,
I have tried it in several instances at the Greville—treet Hos-
pital, and am quite satisfied that. it possesses a control over the
urgent symptoms of Gonorrhoea, relieving the discharge and
stitigating the scalding in making water, that I have not ob-
served in the usual methods of exhibiting Copaiba. In one in-
stance only did it disagree with the stomach ; but in this it
seemed to depend rather on the method of exhibition than on
the remedy itself, for on diluting it with a larger quantity of
Rater, the abjection was at once obviated, and the patient got
well in ton days from the time that he commenced taking the
Medicine. I have not had a case in which the discharge con-
tinued longer than ten days after commencing this treatment.
" I am, dear Sir, your's very truly,
(Signed) " ALEXANDER TWEEDIE."
NitiOin a period of Two Months upwards of Three Hundred
Patients were treated with FRANKS'S SPECIFIC SOLU-
TION of COPAIBA, with perfect success, at the above Me-

THE VOICE CONDUCTORS invented by
Mr. E. SOLOMONS are the most powerful instru-
ments for the relief of deafness. From their minute construc-
tion, and convenient form, deaf persons are enabled to wear
them entirely unseen, and they may be inserted and removed
with the greatest facility. By their use the lowest whisper
breathed at a public assembly vibrates on the organs of hear-
ing in such a pleasant manner, as to afford the greatest relief
to those labouring under the distressing ailment of deafness.
Mr. E. SOLUMONS' PATENT SPECTACLES possess
the advantage of modifying bright and strong light transmitted
through the various humours of the eye, so as to render vision
most perfectly distinct by day, or lamps or candles at night,
conveying also a sense of coolness and pleasure to the organ,
with the additional recommendation of being free from the per-
nicious attributes of common glasses. Their supezlative ex-
cellence is attested by the following and many oda& eminent
practitioners, who have examined, used, and recommended
them in preference to all others :

The public are respectfully cautioned against some unprinci
pled empirics who have assumed Mr. E. S.'s name and pro-
fession, and arel from his immediate neighbourhood, and,
with the most unblushing effrontery, issuing from the daily
press puffs about " Newly-invented Spectacle Lenses," and
Hearing Instruments, which are fraudulently set forth as pos-
sessing the most wonderful powers. The Glasses are highly
detrimental to the sight. The names of some obscure apothe-
caries and others are used in this absurd quackery. to deceive
the public into a belief that these pernicious glasses possess
some very supernatural powers. These common Lenses may
be purchased for one shilling the pair, and for which the most
exorbitant charges are exacted by the parties, against whom
the public arr now respectfully cautioned. Mr. E. S. has re-
ceived for his invention " Royal Letters Patent," and the pa-
tronage of the Royal Family.

PUBLIC NOTIFICATION.
MESSRS. SLOAN and CO., Members of
the Royal College and urgeons, 4, ARGYLL-PLACE,
REGENT-STREET, 2B, IRONMONGER-LANE,
CHEAPSIDE, may be consulted fever Eight o'Clock in the
Morning until Ten at Night, on y variety and stage of
Syphilis, with that delicacy and secresy they have hitherto ob-
served. The treatment they pursue will not subject any patient
to confinement or hindrance from business. Cases of an ex-
treme nature they eradicate in eight or ten days, or if slight or
recent in two or three, without the indiscriminate use of mer-
cury, and at a moderate expense. Generative debility,
Gonorrbeea, and Strictures of the Urethra, unhappily se preva-
lent, are reated upon these unerring principles which have in-
sured to Messrs. Sloan and Co. so large a share of public pa-
tronage for nearly thirty years in London, and which it will be
their future exertion to maintain.
Letters, containing an enclosure, will be answered by return
and patients, however distant, will be cerresponded with until
I recovered.
