which is as follows:
"a CARD.-The undersigned feels it her duty
to express her heartfelt gratitude to DR.. Czapkay
for the successful cure of herself and child. The
latter, having been afflicted by a severe attack OF
Cholera lnfantum,' was given up as incurabe by
some Of the most celebrated physicians, when she
called on Dr. Czapkay--of whom she heard very ia
vorable report and who after short period, resto-
red the child to perfect health. Encouraged by
this extraordinary result, she sought advice herself
for the scrofnlous malady with which she had been
afflicted for eight years, and which wths;ood the
treatment of the best physicians In Europe and
America. But DR.. Czapkay has succeeded in afIor-
ding her permanent relief, that she can now en-
JOY life, which, after eight years, had lost all
charms TO her. She therefore deems it due to her
self and to all sick and afflicted. TO recommend Dr.
Czapkay as one Of the most skillful physicians in
the United States.

IMPORTANT TO MINERS, TRAvELLERs, ETo-There
i is TO malady Of deeper Importance, either in a
medical or moral point Of view, to which the hu-
man family is more liable than that arising from
impure connection
As medical man, it lie the duty Of every physi-
clan to look at disease it affects health and life
and his sole object should'be to mitigate as far as
lies in his power, the bodily suffering Humun ma
ture at best Is but frail all liable to misfortune
Of all the ills that affect man, none are more ter
rible than those Of private nature. Dreadful as
It is in the person who contracts it, frghtu as are
its ravages upon his constitution ending frequently
In destruction and loathsome grave, it becomes Of
still greater Importance when II is transmitted to
innocent offspring. Such being the case how ne
cessary 1t becomes that every having reason to
fear that they have contracted the disease, should
attend to 1t at once by consulting physician,
whose respectability and education enables him to
warrant q safe, speedy, and permanent cure. In ac
eordance with this necessity, Dr. Young feels called
upon to state that, by long study and extensive
practice he has become perfect master Of all those
diseases, which come under the denomination of ve-
nereal and having paid more attention to that one
branch than any other physician in the United States
he feels himself better qualified to treat them.
Syphilis In all its forms, such as ulcers swelling
