NO MERCURY OR COpAIvA.

THERE are two. - 70 treat Secret Disease,
temporary disappearance of the symptoms, by
means of mercury or copaiva, and requires but a
day or two but it is very injurious indeed; the Sc
cond way is to eradicate it out of the system, slow
y safely, and surely, without Mercury or Copaiva.
As the wise say
Sound in a day or two,
IT'S too good to be true.
Thirty odd years of experience in the scientific
practice of curing Secret Diseases in Paris and A
merca, have enabled the French Doctor of the
FRENCH MEDICAL HOUSE, l6 south Frederick St
near Second street, to eradicate the most vrulent
disease, no matter from what cause it may have
originated, in very short but reasonable time,
without Mercury or Copaiva Victims of an i'm
proper treatment, and wearied with disappointment
may confidently apply. Persons who nave injur-
ed their Health by certain practice called solitary
vice. which brings impotency, will be restored to
prime vigor. This is the only place in BALTI-
MORE where a sure cure can be had on written
guaranty and forfeiture, with strict honesty, and
terms moderate. The most respectable city refer
ence will be given. Advice gratis. jan 1y.

NOTICE.

IT AVING been imposed upon far beyond the
IL conception of any one but myself by those
who make by-roads through all parts of my plan
tation, Locust Hill, pulling and breaking down my
fences, and thereby causing my neighbors' and my
own stock to commit depredations which they
otherwise would not have done, and more particu-
larly by making public thoroughfare by my house,
pulling down my gate, breaking down my Bridges
and cutting the road in such manner as to render
it useless for my own purposes-for it seems that
most of the hauling is done in wet weather when
people can do little else, at which time the road is
more liable to impressions, and is then left for
me to repair and keep in order-sometimes it re-
qures two or three days, and on one occasion this
fall, whole week to repair this road. Therefore,
to remedy these evils am reluctantly constrained
to notify the public, that from and after the lst day
of February next, forewarn all manner of persons
from trespassing on any part of my premises,
in any and every manner whatever, as am deter
mined to enforce the law against all so offending,
unless they have my special consent, come upon
business with me or my vessel; such only can be
permitted to use the road.
GFOwners of servants respectfully requested
to caution them as to the above notice, as shall
certainly deal strictly with them if caught so
offending.
