TO FEMALE INVALIDS.
" No less than 31,000 females have expired from diseases
peculiar to their sex in one year."—See the Registrar• Gene-
ral's Report.

TAR. hAYFIELD,. R.N., of the University of Edinburgh,
and Member of the College of Surgeons, respectfully
announces to invalids, the above startling fact, as officially
stated by the Registrar-General, and inforpiS--them, that he
may be daily consulted (either personally or by letter,) as a
Physician-Accoucheur, by patients sulfering from those pe-
culiar diseases, which if unattended toTor improperly treated,
quickly bring the malady to a fatal issue, or by undermining
a previously good constitution, cause the unhappy patient to
suffer a lingering existence; whereas by a timely application
to Dr. Bayfield, whose experience in the treatment of female
diseases for the last 16 years, he is warranted in stating, that
the disease will not only be speedily removed, but the patient
restored to her pristine state of health.
Dr. Bayfield may be daily consulted personally, at his resi-
dence, No. 18, NORTHAMPTON-SQUARE, GOSWELL-ROAD,
LONDON, or by letter, post free, describing symptoms, &c.,
and also enclosing a fee of 10s. or a post-office order to that
amount—when the requisite medicine will be forwarded, to
any part of the three kingdoms.

Bayfield respectfully announces that his invaluable
SPASMODIC TINCTURE, so celebrated for affording im-
mediate relief in all cases of Spasms arising in the stomach,
bowels, and in the system generally, can be purchased only
of him at his residence, price 2s. 9d., 4s. Gd. and 9s. duty in-
cluded, in stopped bottles. One dose is sufficient to relieve
the most violent paroxysms.
