PROFESSOR SWEDOUR'S HYGEAN PILLS.
FOR the effectual extirpation of every species and symptom
of the Syphilitic Disease,and the many disorders rising from
improper treatment.
Prepared and sold by the sole Proprietor, No. 54, Seel.
street, Liverpool. (four doors from Slater- eet) in boxes at
2s. 9d. and 4s. 6d. each.
lJWith each box is given direction ow to take these Pills,
and observations on points, beneficial to the patient, being hints
worth knowing, by those who are, or have been sufferers from
this dreadful and devastating malady.
" Venienti occurite morbo."
"Oppose the disease in its infancy."
"Those, 0 sinful pleasures, these are—thy troptrterw.lis thus
co-operating with the foe of God and man, thou degradest hu-
man nature, and blasteth the opening prospects of human fe-
lictv."—Bi. AIR.

So said Professor Swedour, when he discovered his grand
PANACEA for this Complaint, The "Hygean Pills." (then un-
known to the annals of medical discoveries,)as a specific reme-
dy to exterminate from the system, that intruder on the plea-
sures frequently imbibed in moments of inebriation, or thought-
lessness : never did a discovery 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
1 complaint, for the cure of which, they have been... so long cele-
brated. The fame of these Pills throughout Germany, caused
their speedy introduction into almost every country, and ad-
dresses.were presented to the talented Professor Swedour who
filled the chair at Leyden University, congratulatory of the cir-
cumstance. 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 satis-
faction. The Ilyg,ean Pills root out every particle of the insid-
nous poison, purifying in their progress the wholemass 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 inild and imperceptible as to con-
vince the most sceptical of their astonishing and unequalled
powers, they neither contain mercury or any 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. The Hygean Pills maybe depended upon as a cer-
taini
cure by persons of either sex, n all stages of a certain dis-
ease, and that without producing the least inconvenience. At
any period when the slightest suspicion may exist, it will be
well to have recourse to the Hygean Pills, for when taken be-
fore the disease has made its appearance it acts As a certain
preventive, removing the complaint effectually and secretly.
The deplorable state in which many persons have been when
visiting the proprietor from the use of mercury, renders it im-
peratively necessary to caution the public against that danger-
ous mineral when injudiciously administered.
Dr. Davieson will attend daily at his residence, No. 54, Seel-
street, Liverpool, from Eight in the morning until Ten at night,
(on Sundays from Nina till Two,)'where he gives advice to all
applicants taking any of his preparations, wiTirot T A FEE.
Letters (post-paid) enclosing a remittance, answered by re-
turn, and Medicines punctually transmitted to any address,
either by initials or name.

Now publishin,„o,
ANEW Edition, being the sixth, of CALMET'S DIC-
TIONARY of the HOLY BIBLE, with the FRAG-
MENTS of the late CHARLES TAYLOR.
This Work, which forms Five Volumes Quarto, will now be
published in Parts, containing at least Ten Sheets of Letter-
press, and five Copperplate Engravings or Maps, worked on
Tinted Paper, price ss. One, and occasionally two Parts, will
be published on the Ist of each Month, until completed. The
whole to be comprised in Forty Parts.
On the first appearance of a work like the o.tr-n- ow again
offered to the public, it would have been imp... .le to prognos-
ticate, with any certainty, its success, or ..nfidently to affirm
that it would prove itself universally a , itible, and -become, in
a manner, indispensably to the student ivinity. Very many
excellences, and some of the rarest kind, must concur in such a
work, to adapt it to general utility—to stamp upon it a perma-
nent value, and to secure it from the danger of being quickly
superseded by similar productions. To reach this high point of
success it must not merely comprise all those various and com-
mon elements which mere industry, with a sound judgment and
extensive erudition, may readily collect and digest; but it must
be vivified throughout by that originality and spirit—that fire
and force with which it is the prerogative of a few minds to
animate their productions. And how few, even of those who
are thus peculiarly gifted, possess at the same time, and in an
eminent degree, the faculty of acquisition, and those habits of
patient industry, without which profound and exact learning is
neither to be acquired, nor usefully employed.
That the Editor of CALMET, and the Author of the FRAG-
MENTS, who thus rarely and variously gifted, needs not now to
be affirmed; since this praise has been long and generally
awarded to him, end indeed has been rendered indisputable, by
the mere fact of the unexampled circulation of the extensive
work which embodies his talents and acquirements.
During the period that has elapsed since the first appearance
of Mr. Taylor's edition of CALMET, many works of a similar
kind, and some of them of great excellence—excellence that
must severely have tried the merits of any competitor, have been
given to the world, and have gained their share of public favour.
Nevertheless, the appearance and diffusion of none of them has
for a moment slackened the sale of this. CALMET'S
TIONARY has, in fact, held on its way without disturbance,
during a long course of years; and the principal occupation of
the Author, in the latter portion of his life, was the revision of
the successive editions it passed through ; and since his decease
it has been twice reprinted (excicusively of the condensed edi-
tion, in one volume, octavo, of which more than4ooo copies have
been sold) and it is still in constant demand by the public.
The statement of these facts is felt to be an act of justice to the
memory of the Author, who himself, with a singular indifference
to literary fame, abstained, to the last, from personally claiming
the high reputation he had won. The Proprietor of the Work
believes also that such a statement is at once more becoming on
his part, and is likely to be more satisfactory to the public, than
any recommendation of it which he might attempt. While
speaking of what is due to the memory of the Editor and Author
of the Fragments, he has to announce that to the forthcoming
edition will be prefixed a brief Memoir of his Life and Literacy
course,
