, • ADVICE. I
WHEN Men of Education and professional skill i
use persevering endeavours to discover the most safe and i
certain method of treating a few prevailing Diseases, the success-'
ful result of their experience is the best proof of superiority.
Messrs. GOSS and Co. Surgeons, have been induced to make
the cure of the following the object of their particular study, viz.
a certain Disorder, frequently contracted in a mument of intoxi- I
c..tion, and its concomirants, strictures and Gleets, which, by
an improved plan, are speedily and effectually cured ; as also de-
bility, whether arising from Bacchanalian indulgences, long resi-
dence in warns climates, or a secret solitary vice, too often un-
happily pursued by the youth of both sexes, In the one causing
sterility or barrenness, and in the other a numerous train of nee.
vous diseases, which, if not timely remedied, terminate in Im.
potence and Consumption. In that distressing state of debility of
deficiency, whether the consequence of such baneful habits, or
arising from any other cause, by which the powers of the consti
tution become enfeebled, as re.t'ularly educated S.,rgeons of Lon-
don, they offer a firm, safe, and speedy restoration to sound and
vigorous health.
The result of a long and extensive practice has enabled than,
by a superior method, to remove venereal complaints, however
inveterate or complicated, without subjecting the patient to
the least restraint in diet or exercise ; and in recent Cases
where an early application is made on discovery of the infection,
they frequently perform a cure in the short space of two days.
The unprecedented success of their mode of treatment (which
has never been known to fail in one single Instance in a prac-
tice of 15 years, during which period many thousand persons
of both sexes have been cured, even after severe and injurious
methods had been pursued by other Practitioners without effect),
induces them to thus publicly offer their advice.
Messrs. GOSS and Co. exclusively professing the cure of these
particular complaints, in order that they may not be marked by
a mistaken few, with the obloquy so justly attached to the igno-
rant empiric, think it but justice to themselves to state, that they
have been properly educated and initiated into every branch of
the profession (certificates of which, from different hospitals, and
testimonials from the most eminent Physicians, they have to con-
vince any inquirer), that the success resulting from their endea-
vours first induced them to quit t..e practice of the general Pros-
•it loner, and they presume that their pretensions constitute a fair,
ground for the unprecedented eonfidence with which they have,
by the public, been so liberally honoured. •
Patients in the country are requested to state the particulars
of their case, age, And manner of living, inclosing a Bank Now
for advice and medicines, and the same will be forwarded to any
part of the kingdom.—LOSS and Cu. Surgeons, 13, Burma,

CHALLENGE.
MESSRS. CURRIE and Co. Surgeons, late in hip
Majesty's Service, challenge the wnole world to prove a
single instance where their Medicine and method of cure have
failed of the desired effect. The practice of many years In this
particular branch of their profession has not given rise 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 consequeuce of the pernicious and wasteful effects of a
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 burren-
ness ; the other have its ravages fatally developed to them by a dis-
tressing state of debility, which, if not timely remedied, terminals*
!n impotence. These are its remote and ukiniate efft"cts, while con-
sumptions,kms of muscular power, and various nervous complaints
usually characterise the earlier stages 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. In the
most obstb cite and complicated cases of venereal infection, Rich
as obstructions in the urethra, s, tangy excrescences, hard ni-
mours,caUous ulcers, eruptions, seminal weakness, glests, as also
STRIC

Whether recent or of long duration, and which have baffled the
ofother Practitioners ; are by their present improved plan of
reatment, effectually and permanently cured, without the patient
suffering 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 01
Strictures have been and are daily under their are, 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 front this complaint,
is speedily removed, and the patient restored to sound and vi-
gorous health. But where the debility has for years existed,
proper perseverance in their restorative remedies after the Stric-
ture has been destroyed, is indispensably requisite to revive the
slumbering sparks ot life, and to reanimate the Constitution.
Several Noblemen andi Gentlemen, of the first respectability,
have been under the care of Messrs. Currie and Co. for the
moval of eomplaints of the Urethra, Strictures, &c. and, having
received a radical and permanent cure, request that reference,
may be made to them as satisfactory evidences of the decided su- '
periority of Messrs. Currie and Co.'s plan of treatment. Many
of these Gentlemen have had Strictures from sen to twenty years
and had been under the care of Messrs. Home and Heaviside'
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. 107,
Hatton-Garden. Patients in the country arc requested to state
the particulars of their case, age, and general habit of living, &e.
Inclosing a remittance for advice and medicines, when its same
will be given or scut to any pact of the kingdom.

The following is a copy of the Address to General

" The supreme Government of this capital bas received the
dispatch from yoar Excellency with the respect that it deserves.
Your Excellency has returned to yoar own country at at impor-
tant crisis of its political regeneration, when it so much needs the
assistance of your talents and virtues, which were so conspicuous
at the commencement of the French Revolution. That country
is now resigned to slavery and abansloned to corruption, and is
no longer capable of being benefited by your exertions; you
have, therefore, turned your attention to the happy regions of
Columbia, where your services will be rewarded by the love and
admiration of your compatriots. You will purify the se regions,
stained by the blood of so many victims, off,red up at the shrine
of despotism. Your Excellency has no obj .ct in view but the
establishment of public liberty, and you will endeavour to erect
her throne among these her favourite mansions. The simple and
beneficent character of the American people will be rendered
mare brillian; by the lessons of your instruction, formerly deli-
vered in the Convention of Paris; and those sublime maxims
drawn from the code of nature, to which• a wicked nation wLs
insensible, will not be ineffectually mail in a country whose prin-
ciples are pure, and whose morals are correct. This generous
people expects much from that slicer who has made tyrants
tremble, and who has dispersed the eagles of the Despo- before
his triumphant banners, &c. &c.

" I have the honour to address this to your Excellency by order
of the Supreme Government; and remain with high consilem.

AUGUST 13 —A decree of his Majesty, dated on
the .sth of August, decrees as follows:
" Prisoners of war, having the rank of officers, as
well as hostages, shall enjoy the favour of proceeding
freely and without escort to the place assigned far
them, and to reside there, without being detained,
after their having given their parole nor to depart
from the road marked out for them, nor from the
place of their residence.
Every prisoner of war having the rank of officer,
and every hostage, who, after having given his parole,
shall violate it, shall, if he be retaken, be considered
and treated as a soldier with respect to pay and ra-
tions, and shut up in a citadel, fort, or castle.
Prisoners of war having the rank of officers, and
hostages, who shall not enjoy the favour granted by
the first article of the present decree, shall be kept in
the depots, and shall not travel but under the escort
of the armed force. It they escape on the road, or
from a elzpot, and be retaken, they shall be confined
in A citadel, fort, or castle.
Prisoners of war who hive not the rank of offi-

depot, from the battalion of the establishment, or from
the houses of private persons, where they may have
been placed, shall, in case they are retaken, be con-
fined is a citadel, tort. or castle."

SIR—On the 28th in the morning the enemy open-
ed his fire on Fort Olivo from two batteries, one of
four guns and a mortar, the other of three guns and
a howitzer, placed on the flank of the fort. About
mid day of the 29th Colonel Green examined the
works of the Olivo, owing to a report from an Offi-
cer that its defences were m a bad sta:e, and be found
them very much destroyed. At night it was intended
to substitute the regiment of Almeria' foi that of Ibe-
ria, which had been hitherto in the fort :..apj after,
dark the former regiment was marched gut of the
town for that purpose; but. I am sorry to say • the
enemy found means to mingle himseif with that regi-
ment, and he got possession of the Olivo without
firing a shot, making 900 men prisoners.
The enemy's force at present is considered to %e
between ten and eleven thousand men ; he is sup-
posed to have lost four thousand since the com-
mencement of the siege in killed and wounded and
deserters.

The Spaniards, including the prisoners made at
the Olivo, have lost about three thousand.—l have

GENERAL MEMORANDUM.
Whereas in consequence of the town of l'arragona being taken
this evening by assault, numbers of the troops and inhabitants
have been received on board the different ships and vessels of
the squadron perfectly naked, it is my direction that they may
be tupplied with such articles of daubing as a due regard to de-
cency and humanity may absolutely require.

SEAMEN KILLED AND WOUNDED.--KILLED.
Henry Blakebury, ordinary Berman ; David Toole, ditto.
WOUNDED.

John Hughes, quartermaster, lost his left arm ; William Lubec,
ordinary seaman, slightly on the shoulder.
TOTAL.

Two Seamen killed; 1 Lieutenant, 1 Quarter-Master, 1 Sea-
man, wounded. (signed) J.C. Wurrs, Captain.
To the above return I beg leave to add, that Lien-i
tenant Ashworth's excellent character and conduct
makes me feel most sincerely for his present suffer-
ings; and there is great room to apprehend the d.tn-
gerous wound he has received in the knee joint by a
cannon-shot, may render amputation necessary ; in
the present state of his wound, a stiff joint is the
most probable cure to be expected.
