WINTER BULBOUS ROOTS.

Thorburn the we'll known Laurie Tedd,') a supply
Of magnificent Bulbous Roots, a!ely imported from
Holland. Mr.. Thorburn gives some information in
a letter respecting the nature and cultivation OF
Hyacinths, Tulips, Crocus, etc., which may be OF
interest to the many cutvators of these most charm
ing Of flowers. He says of Bulbs designed for the
parlor or greenhouse: "Leave out the pots with Gro

out in the atmosphere the they flower in doors

in the mean time take my advice aud use them rough

filled tcth its suery roots, then it thinks of shooting
upward, which the general warmth OF the house fa
vors. Hyacntha or Tulips never deteriorate from
double 10 single, but in our climate degenerate into
mere small flowers with numerous ofshoots. Whe'
ther it is owing TO the peculiar arne'sh soil oil which
all Holland is composed, or whether the extreme
heat of our climate. different from Holland, causes
them to over task their energies and become eStte-
(which latter theory l, from long experience in their
culture incline toy ia fact that after the first year,
both Hyacnhs and Crocus dwindle TO half their size,

Strong as are his own claims those Of his county

county of the Democracy in this section Of Virginia.

l. the undersigned, having been under the treat
ment of DR.. L. J. Czapkay, although unsolicited,
feel called upon to give publicity to the efficacy of
his treatment, hoping that by so doing, may be
instrumental IN preventing others from the fearful
suffering and misery which | experienced. and
which so often result from the perncious practice
of pretenders. My disease has been that Of physi-
cal and mental debility, which follows in conse-
quence of the indlseretion of youth. The agonies
which endured are, perhaps, unnecessary for me
to detail; they are known TO those who have expe-
rienced them. Suffice it to say, that having called
the services of DR.. l.. j. Czapkay in reqasition.
all my expectations which may have formed of
him were more than realized. would, therefore,
DR.. Czapkay to all who may find them
selves afflicted with that dreadful malady, my OBJ
ject in so doing being sympathy for suffering hu
manity, and heartfelt desire of relieving them.

diseases of the Urinary Organs, and Diseases OF
Women and Children, has opened his Institute for
the cure of all forms of private diseases, such
syphilis, gonorrhpa, nocturnal emissions, and all
the consequences of self abuse. In the first stage
of syphilitc or gonorrhmal diseases he guarantees
a cure in few days, without inconvenience to the
patient or hndrance to his business. When pa
TENT by neglect or improper treatment has devel-
oped the symptoms of secondary syphilis, such as
buhoes or painful swelings of the groins, or ulcers
in the throat or nose, which if not checked, de-
sroy the soft parts and cause the bones to mortfy,
separate and come away, leaving the sufferer hide
Gus to behold; or when splotches and pimpes break

upon the bones or when his constitution is injured
so as TO predspose to consumption constitutional
disease, the Doctor guarantees cure or asks no

In RHEUMATISM chronic or acute; in DYS-
EMERY or DIARHCEA, he has safe and eifectual
remedies. For the treatment of the consequences
of self abuse such as nocturnal emissions, head

general weakness loss of appetite, loss Of memory,
injury to the sight restlessness confusion of ideas.
dislike for society, and feeling of weariness of
life; with the nervous system so eNcitable that
s rht noises shock or startlc the patient, making
his existance miserable. For the above maladies
the Doctor will guarantee cure or ask com
pensation. He can be consulted free of charge
and invites all to call as will cost them nothing.
and may be much to their advantage.
