IMPORTANT DISCOVERY.

THE Advantage the Public must always derive
from regularly relocated professional men directing almost
exclusively their studies to one species of malady, was never mere
clearly demonstrated than by the unexampled success which has
attended the administration of their new remedy, and the extraor-
dinary cures it has performed. For a long series of years Messrs.
Cu* RIZ and Co. Surgeons, fornierly in his Majesty's service, have
made the Venereal Disease the particular object of their Investi-
gation, and are happy in having discovered a medicine superior to
mercury; in the cure of that complaint ; it is sufficient to observe,
that the effects of this remedy are diametrically opposite to those
of mercury, for though it completely eradicates every vestige of
the virus, in its most confirmed stages, yet it does not in the least
injure the constitution ; on the contrary, it renovates Ow system
in all its natural functions, promotes appetite, and facilitates di-
gestion ; thus instead of reducing a strong and vigorous constitu-
tion to the frightful condition that mercury does, it not only pre-
serves that constitutiou in its primitive state, but restores a weak
and debilitated one to its natural strergth and vigour. Number-
less instances are on recent record of the superior efficacy of this
medicine, its inherent and Specific virtues acting as a perpetual
corrective to bodily debility, whether proceeding from an excess
of conjugal or illicit pleasure, or from the mere int idioms, though
not less destructive, indulgence of incautious youth of both sexes
in a certain pernicious habit. Amidst the melancholy variety of
disorders which are the consequence of this solitary vice, there are
none more afflicting than that distressing state of debility and de-
ficiency which prevents or embitters the matrimonial. state ; the
unhappy sufferer broods over his misfortune, ashamed to seek :e-
-lie, until be is reduced to such a state of weakness as to render
life oppressive. 'Fo such persons it must be a consoling reflec-
tion to know, that they may now, by a new infallible mode of
treatment, be restored to that greatest of all humanbksiiings, a
strong, manly and vigorous constitution.
In all cases of debility, deficiency, from whatever cause arising,
as well as in every species of venereal Infection, bikessrs. Currie
and Co. may be consulted by patients 'of either sex with the
greatest secrecy, and honour, at their house, No. 107, Hatton-
Garden. Patients in the country, describing the particulars of
their complaints, by letter Rost paid, enclosing a Bank note, will
have the necessary mo-tkcimi and advice sent to any part of the
kingdom, No. 107, HattonaGerdels.

DR. GILBERT'sVEGETABLE ANTISCOR.
Billie DROPS, in bottles at22s. and a smaller size at
4s. 6d.—The variety of diseases that prevail at this season of the
year,' generally origieating from impurities of the blood, a vitia.
ted stomach, or obstructed. perspiration, it is with the fullest cop
fitience of success that we strenuously recommend this unrivalle4
medicine to public notice, as being a certain preventative and
cure for numerous diseases, particularly the land and sea scurry,
cancers, king's evil, ulcerated sore legs, running wounds in acy
part of the body, leprosy, eruptions after the small-pot or mess
slats, inflammation in the eyes, St. Anthony's fire, rheumatism and
rheumatic gout, slow, nervous, anti i,ltermitting fevers, add all the
nog 'rain of ilisorders whicli attend the scorn internally.
The fallowing remarkable instance of the wonderful edicts of the
VEGETABLE AN PISCORBUTIC DROPS,
In those dreadful diseases termed the Scrophula, was attested
before Si r*John Wilmot Prideaux, Bart. chier of his IViaesty's
tices of Peace for the County of Devon. 22d of December, 1803:
1, Solomon Arming,. of Colyton, in the said County, Stone-
mason, was, about flora years ago, seized with a violent pain in
my side and head; soon after, a humour broke in my neck,
near thebollar-bone, and became a desperate wound; in about three
weeks after three more wounds broke out below my ear, and a
barge gathering appeared on the other oide of my neck, which
caused suck extreme pain I could not gain any rest night or
day. I then took a bottle of Dr. Gilbert's Vegetable Antiscor
butic Drops, soon after those wounds healed, and the humor
abated, but not persevering in the medicine a sufficient time, a
violent swelling affected one of my legs, and my knee became w
stiff and enlarged, the faculty deemed it a white swelling, and
treated it as such for a considerable time. I now became a pall
feet cripple, soon after my afflictions were greatly increased by a
powerful Inflammatory humour, which settled, in my eyes and
nearly deprived me of sight; my whole frame now became bur-
thened with this disease; the crutches which I had long used
were no longer of use, I became confined to my bed. The 121 c
advice I had from my surgeon was to get myself removed to Oct
of the London Infirmaries, this I did not approve of, it appeared.
doubtless whether I could undertake the journey. Amy witty
request I put myself a second time under a course of Dr. Gilbert's
Vegetable Antiscorbutic Drops, resolving to give them a fair
trial ; the wonderful effects produced: a favourable alteration, and
by the time I had taken seven or eight bottles, I beguile a sopa
man, every wound healed, my leg and knee returned to their for-
mer star and strength, having for several months not felt rimiest
symptom of the aforesaid complaints, and I enjoy a very otd
state of health. SOLOMON AN NINO.
