was much improved. " H. LEY, M.D.
" Lecturer on Midwifery at Bartholomew's Hospital."
" Dr. Clarke has prescribed Yoland's Specific Solution to-
many patients labouring under tirethial discharges, and in-
variably found they were cured in much less time than he
had previously observed when using preparations of copaiba,
and is of opinion it is a remedy unequalled, and one that he
intends in future to prescribe for his patients."
" London, Dec. 27, 1537.

a most efficacious remedy, and one that removes urethral dis-
eases sooner than any preparation of copaiba he has ever
prescribed."

PROFESSOR SWEDOUR'S HYGEIAN HERB
PILLS, for the effectual extirpation of every species
and symptom of the SYPHILITIC DISEASE, and the
disorders arising from imprsper treatment.
Prepared and sold by the soleV'roprietor, at
No. 42, SEEL-STREET, LIVERPOOL.
In boxes at 2s. Oil. and 4s. 6d. each.
Warranted not to contain COPAIBA, CUBEBS, or any
deleterious ingredient.
*** With each Box is given a Treatise on Venereal
and Syphilitic Diseases, with observations on seminal weak-
ness &c. &c., containing hints worth knowing by those who
are, or have been sufferers to this dreadful and devastating
malady.
Dr. DAVIESON continues to direct his attention to those
disorders arising from the too free and indiscriminate in-
dulgence of the passions, which not only occasion a numer-
ous train of nervous affections, but also entails on its votaries
all the enervating imbecilities of old age. In that distressing
state of debility and deficiency, whether the consequence of
baneful habits, excessive drinking, or any other cause by
which the powers of the constitution become enfeebled, he
offers a firm, safe, and speedy restoration to sound and vigor-
ous health.
It is a melancholy fact that thousands fall victims to the
venereal disease, owing to the unskilfulness of illiterate men,
who, by the use of that deadly poison, Mercury, ruin the con•
stitntion. When the great "Elector Swedour became Pro-
fessor at Leyden University, he conferred an invaluable be-
nefit upon mankind by the discovery_of his grand Panacea,
for the cure of this deplorable complaint. Never did a dis-
covery excite a greater sensation, it was sought after with
avidity, and used with undeviating success in the most
minute and intricate cases of the delicate complaint, for the
cure of which they have been so long celebrated. The fame
of these Pills throughout Germany, caused their speedy in-
troduction into almost every country. The certainty with
which they were continually administered can be attested by
many thousands. In fact, during the long continental war
they- were the inseparable companion and safeguard of the
soldier, in all cases where the slightest suspicion of infection
was entertained. What medicine can be more appropriate
than that which has given such general satisfaction ? The
II ygeian Herb Pills root out every particle of insidious poison,
purifying in their progress the whole mass of fluids. They
not only remove the disease, but renovate by their action
the different functions of the body expelling the grosser hu-
mours, and in a manner so mild and imperceptible as to
convince the mast sceptical of their astonishing and un-
equalled powers. They neither contain mercerynorany other
mineral, and may be taken without the slightest suspicion
of discovery—they require no restraint of diet, loss of time,
or hindrance of business, but effect a complete cure, without
the least exposure to the patient. At any period when the
slightest suspicion may exist, it will be well to have recourse
to the Hygeian Herb Pills, for when taken before the disease
has made its appearance it acts as a certain preventive, by
moving the complaint effectually and secretly. The deplor-
able state in which many persons have been when visiting
the proprietor, from the use of mercury, renders it impera-
tively necessary to caution the public against that dangerous
mineral when injudiciously administered.
These Pills should form a portion of all Medicine Chests,
by sea and land, and ought. never to be omitted by any person
going a long voyage or journey, their properties are such
that neither heat nor cold will injure their quality, or pre-
vent the due effects on the constitution.
Dr. Davieson will attend daily at his residence, from Eiolit
in the morning until Ten at night, (on Sundays from Nina
till Two,) where he gives advice to all applicants taking any
°this preparations, WITHOUT A FEE.
Letters (post-paid) enclosing a remittance, answered by
return, and Medicines punctually transmitted to any ad-
dress either by initials or name.

PORTRAIT OF THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON.
LivERPOOL possesses a commemoration of the greatest
Naval Commander of the Nation, but has no Memo-
rial of her greatest Military Chieftain.
To supply this deficiency, a few Gentlemen of Liverpool
have associated themselves together, and are now in personal
communication with HAYDON, for a PORTRAIT of the
DUKE OF WELLINGTON, in connexion with some one
of his splendid victories; being satisfied that the Historical
Painter who could depict Napoleon in Exile, so as to kindle
the admiration and muse of Wordsworth, would not fail to
produce an equally enduring Memorial of Napo;eon's an-
tagonist-genius-0;e Hero of Waterloo.
It is proposed to place the Picture permanently in some
suitable Building in Liverpool, easy of access to the Public,
such as the contemplated St. George's-hall.
Books for the Names of Subscribers are placed at the dif-
ferent News-rooms and Newspaper-offices, and Subscriptions
will be received at all the 13anks, by the Members of the
Committee, or by Mr. THOMAS WINSTANLEY, Church.
street, the Treasurer; and to give all classes an opportunity
of contributing to this public object, the smallest Subscrip-
tions will be received.
