DIED.
Lately, at Walcheren, Captain James Summers, Lieutenant
James Nixon, and Ensign William Reed, of him Majesty's 88th
Regiment of Foot.
On the 2d ult. of his wounds, and buried onlthe field of battle,
among the heroes of Talavera, in the 21st year of his age, Capt.
Rawdon M‘Crea, of the 87th (Prince of Wales's Irish) Regiment,
eldest son of Major M'Crea, of the sth Royal Veteran Battalion :
this gallant young man, who had been five times severely woun-
ded at the storming of Monte Video, in the act of encouraging
his men, at the head of his light company, was wounded, on the
evening of the 27th July, and taken prisoner. The ball, a rifle
one, pierced both cases of his watch, and, wick part of the works,
lodged in his groin. He was sent into Talavera, by a flag of
truce, on the morning of the 30th ; his wound looked well, and
he was in good spirits; having been treated with the greatest hu-
manity and attention by the French ; but unexpected bleeding,
caused by some parts of the watch having been carried deeper
into the wound, among the large blood vessels, than was suppos-
ed, almost instantaneously put a period to his life.

CURRIE and Co Surgeons, No. 107, Batton Garden.,

WHEN PROFES RONAL MEN of Educatiod
and Responsibility deviate front the Geueral System by
the selection of a particular branch, the sanction of long continued
success is the best criterion of superiority.
Fourteen years have we devoted our practice to the exclusive
treatment of two disorders, and the successful result of our plan
gives us additional ardour to oppose, as far as we are able, theta-
vagcs of those emplanes which are the most important in the
catalogue of human infirmities.
After 'satiation into every branch of practice, we contemplated
the sufferings of Siphylit'e and debilitated Patients, and formed a
wish to rescue individuals from the iznorance of unedeeated men,
or the equally dangerous precipitancy of general practitioners.
The disorders, to the cure of which we have devoted our atten-
tion, comprise every specks of Venereal Infection, whether of a
recent or long duration : 9dly, All kinds of debility, whei!•et

ture age.—Numerous diseases are the result of ignorance. et
haste in the treatment of a simple Gonorrhoea, and it 'tat arero-
quently happens, that the seeds of life are poisoned by the leas-
cretion of an unguarded hour.
By a superior method such complaints are easily cured; tad
even where others have failed, we trust that we may presume to
ofkr a radical re-establishment.
Few, however, are the cases of complicated distress in this dis-
order, compared with the calamitous iltuations of tre:t, whes
from an indulgence in a Solitary Vice; or the prevalent gfietiesuf
a fashionable life, acquire that state of debility, which is the no'
avoitli.ble consequence of such pernicious habits.
Where the unhappy sufferer broods over his misery, bet care-
ully conceals his misfortune, It may be some consolation for him
to know, that although it he an object of doubt or uuccrtaintf
with other practitioners, the removal of these deficiencii.s by the
gradual progress of renovation is the acquirement of our experiend
If the rites of Bacchus or Venus have begun to reduce manly

But where this deficiency has for years existed, a proper Imre-
yerance to indispensibly requisite to revive the slumbering spara
Of life, and to re-animate the constittn ion. •
The secrecy whini is, so essential to our undertaking, and the
q tiifications which we presume to state, form the basis of our
pretensions, and in coincidence with such this intimation isgivelt
that Messrs. Letoss and Co. may be consulted personally, or by
