malcdies which, from slight neglected be-
ginnings, destroy so many vigorous consti-
tutions-that modern science has discoy-
cred sure, safe and speedy methods of cure.
It is no longer thought necessary to satu-
rate the body with mineral poisons, con-
demning it to weakns IS and premature
decay: the horrible system Of 'starving,
poisoning, and confinement" pursued by
antique ignorance, is entirely superseded,
and those Miasmaiic, pestilential Venereal,
and contagious diseases which it was sup
posed might, in time, destroy the human
race. can now be cured by simple and nata!-
raj remedies, in few days.

the population of civilized countries. Scien-
titic and medical research has consequently
been largely devoted to their cure. and the
most iilnstriols of living names in med-
cine. are of those European practitioners

has resulted from the researches of John
Hunter and his successors. and the medical
discoveries Of Ricord and few others. in
our own times, has produced sensible in
crease in population, and has extended the
average term of human existence.
DR.. W. wishes to have it understood that
he relies for his success upon competent
knowledge of the more recent and valuable
discoveries ofscience. In country SO un-
settled, and witha population SO fuctuating
as that Of California, it is not necessary for
him to apologize for having taken this pub
lie method of making known his principles.
The proof of their correctness is in their
constant success.
