Facts atlistltfiiitifittlilltif, and etittot be too often
resorted to, when the object of their' promulgatioti is
the benefit. of human kind, and' hence ►t is, that phi-
lanthropists are so frequently stimulated to acts of
public justice, in the communication of, cufes effected
by the use of Dr. TAYLOR'S Remedy for Deafness.—
.1. Dedman, ploughman to James Ingram, Esq. of
Rottingdean, near Brighthelmston, had been for a
considerable time, as deaf as the stones which his
plough turned up, an affliction that caused much
trouble to Mr. Ingram. in making him sensible of the
instructions, that were occasionally necessary in his
agricultural pursuits, until a few months ago, when
the finger of PROVIDENCE luckily pointed to the Re-
medy ;---he applied it—was blessed with the restora-
tion of his hearing, and has ever since perfectly re-
tained the enjoyment of that blessing. The happy
man, by the advice of Mr. and Miss Ingram, came
personally to the office of W. LEE, and with gratitude
acknowledged the cure:—Sassex Paper, Dec. 1808.
The above esteemed Remedy is sold Wholesale only

nR,GILBERT's VEGETABLE ANTISCOR
BUTIC DROPS, in bottles at 225. 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 we strenuously 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 intermitting fevers, and all the
long train of disorders which attend the scurvy internally.
The following extraordinary Cure and authenticated testimony
must of itself be sufficient to place Dr. GILBERT'S Vegetable
Antiscorbutic Drops a tthe.head of every public remedy, which
has' been discovered in this or any other nation ; the truth of
• •whie h was confirmed by an affidavit • taken at the Town Hall,
Port .mouth, April the Ist, 1509, before the Rev. George Cuth-
bert, Mayor. •
No. SO, Britain-street, Portsea, April 1, IRG9.
To Dr. Gus ERT.—Ste, in g-atitude to you, asbeing the Inven- '
for and Proprietor of one, perhaps, of the greatest discoveries in
medicine which has ever been made in any country or age, and also
for the suffering part of society, I could wish the following case to
be laid before the public at large: I had been for nearly three years
the greatest sufferer both in body and mind ; it first arose front a
powerful disease—the second from my being rendered incapable of
attending to my trade, the only means of providing for a wife and
infant family. My complaint was at first what is usually termed
the Rheumatism, which affected me in various parts of the body,
after which s deadness seized my hands and arms, which rendered
then entirely useless; there appeared to be 410 sense of feeling
no more than if they were hung, to my shouHers with chords,
as I could fling them against stones or wood without Suffer-
' ing the least pain. I had violent and almost constant pains
' in my knees, body and head and my whole system so weakened
i
and relaxed, that I doubted f ever being restored : I tried various
public medicines, and large quantities of simples; I applied to many
gentlemen of the faculty, both physicians and surgeons, men of
-judgment and humanity, in the towns of Portsmouth, Portsea,l
Southampton, Blandford, Ste. but their medicines, blist ring, hot
baths, nor any thing was of the least advantage to me: in this tle-
i plorable state I was when your Vegetable Anti-sCorhulic Drops
were recommended to me, I purchased a bottle of them, without
the least idea of deriving any relief from them ; but my surprise
and joy must be supposed to have exceeded expression, when I say
that I found the languid circulation of the fluids warmed by vital
heat in a few hours after I had taken this astonishing medicine,
nor did it rest here, for I grew daily better, and in a few weeks
1 regular continuance of the medicine three times a day, I gained
an effectual cure.—Witness my hand,
WILLIAM TAYLOR, Cabinet-Maker.
Witness to the above being a real truth, J. Me.hc can, of his
Majesty's Gun-wharf,
JAMES CLAPPERTON, Bookbinder.

The truth of the above statement is further verified by the oath
of the said Wm. Taylor, sworn the Ist day of April, 1 809, at the
Town-hall, in Portsmouth, before a Justice of the Peace tor the
said Borough. GEORGE CUTHUERT, Mayor.

CIIALLF.NGE.
MESSRS. CURRIE and Co. Surgeons, late in iris
Majesty's Service, challenge the whole world to prove a
sinee instance where their Medicine and method of cure have
failed of the desired effect. The practice cf many years in this
particular branch of their profession has not given riie to one
unsuccessful case.

They continue to direct their-studies to the treatment and cure
of Venereal Complaints, and that derangement of the system,
which is the consequence of the pernicious and wasteful eff..ctq 61-7(
habit long and most unhappily pursued by the youths of both sexes;
in the one it will be found to be the unfailing source of barren
now; the either have its ravages fatally developed to them by a dii.
tressing state of debility, which, if not timely reine,lied, terminates
in impotence. These are its remote and Ilk iniate effk.cts, while con-
, sumptions,loss of muscularlovver, and various nervous complaints
usually characterise the earlierarages of this solitary vice. Of per.
sons languishing under the disorders incident to such a habit, their
treatment Is simple and_ has never proved unsuccessful, in the
course of a long, laborious, and much extended practice. la the
most obstinate and complicated cases of venereal infection a.ch
as obstructions in the urethra, spongy excrescences, bar..
mours, callous ulcers, *eruptions, seminal Weakness, gleets, a, a:so
STRICTURES,

Whether recent or of long duration, and which have baffled the
skill of.other Practitioners ; are by their presort improved plan cf
treatment, effectually and permanently cur.. d, without the patient
suffusing the excruciating pain and alarming hemorrhage which
often follows the application of the lunar caustic. In the course of
20 years extensive practice in this metropolis, numerous cases of
r Strictures have •been and are daily under their care, the total
eradication of which are effected by a safe, certain, and expedi-
tious mode of practice, superior to any other yet adopted. The
weakness, relaxation, and debility proceeding from this complaint,
is speedily removed, and the patient restored to sound and vi.
torus health. But where the debility has for years existed, a
proper perseverance in their restorative remedies, after the Sine-
cure has been destroyed, is indispensably requisite to rive the
slumbering sparks of life, and to reanimate the Constitution.
Several Noblemen and Gentlemen, of the first respectability,
have liven under the care of Messri. Currie and Co. for the re-
moval of complaints of the Urethra, Strictures, &c. and, having
received a radical and permanent cure, request that refereac,
may be made to them us satisfactory evidences of the iiecided .;J-
-periority of Messrs. Currie and Co.'s plan of treatment. Many
of these Gentlemen have had Strictures from ten to twenty years,
and had been under the care of Messrs. Home and Heavisides,
and other surgeons of equal eminence, who attempted the cure
by the application of the lunar caustic, without success.
Messrs. Currie and Co. may be consulted by either sex with the
greatest delicacy, secrecy, and honour, at their house, No. 1117,
Hatton-Garden. Patients in the country are requested ti mete
the particulars of their case, age, and general !cabit of livin7, &c.
inclosing a remittance for advice and medicines, when the &our
will be given or sent to any part of the kingdom.
To ensure that secrecy so essential to their undertaking, the
postage of Letters may be added to the account for medicines.

WHEN PROFESSIONAL MEN of Education
and Responsibility deviate from the General System by
the selection of a particular branch, the sanction of long continua
success is the best criterion of Superiority.
Fourteen years have we devoted our practice to the =hare
treatment of two disorders, and the successful resuk of our plan
gives us additional ardou in oppose, as far as we are able, the ra-
vages of those complaints which are the most important iu the
catalogue of human infirmities.
After initiation into every branch of rractice, we contemplated
the sufferings of Siphylitic and debilitated Patients, and formed a
wish to rescue individuals from the ignorance of mieducated rate,
or the equally dangerous precipitancy of general practitioners.
The disorders, to the cure of which we have devoted our attea-
don, comprise every species of Venereal Infection, whether of a
recent or long duration: 2dly, All kinds of (Milky, whether
arising from the habits of school-boys, or the indulgencies ca
Lure age.—Nnaterons diseases are the result of ignotar(
haste the treatment of a simple Gonorrhea, and it not untre-
quentbwens, that the seeds of life are poistmed by the jade
cretion of an unguarded hour.
By a superior method such complaints are easily cured;
even where others have failed, we trust that we may presume to
offer a radical re-est abli.hnient.
Few, however, are the cases of contplicated distress in .116 P-
orkier, compared with the calamitous situations of mea, who,
from an indulgence in a Solitary Vice, or the prevalen arias
a fashionable life, acquire that state of debility, ti;s
avoidable consequence of such perniei.ms habits.
Where the unhappy sufferer brood over his misery, bet err
oily conceals his mtsfortunv, it may he some consolationfot
bite
to know, that although it be an object of doabt or tiacertaintn
with other practitioners, the removal of these deacien.iis by ifs:
