ThankfuEneSS is the Incentive to Gratitude
C Z r 7 IF C A 7 E.


The undersigned, desirous of acouainting
those who may be unfortunate enough to be
similarly afflicted, where a permanent relief of
their sufferings may be obtained, feels it his
duty to thus publicly express his most sincere
gratitude to DR.. L. J. Czapkay for the perma-
nent recovery of his health. Borne down by
the distressing symptoms incident to the vis-
cious practice of uncomfortable passion in
youth; depressed in body and mind, unable to
perform even the most trifling duty imposed
upon the daily avocations of life, sought the
advice of many physicians, who at first re-
garded my disease as of trifling Importance :;
but, alas after a few weeks, and in several
instances months, of their treatment, / found
to my unutterable horror, that instead of re-
lief, my symptoms became more alarming in
their torture and, being told by one that nv
disease, being principally confined to the brain
medicines would be of little consequence |
despaired of ever regaining my health, strength
and energy and, as a last resort, and with
but faint hope, called upon DR.. Czapkay,
who, after examining my case, prescribed some
medicine which almost instantly relieved me
of the dull pain and dizziness in my head
Encouraged by this result, | resolved to place
myself Immediately under his care, and by a
strict obedience to all his directions and ad-
VIZ, HCdu DCCdlut ClcaT. NY IGtdS COlIeCleu,
the constant pain in my back and groins, the
weakness of my limbs, the nervous reaction of
my whole body on the slightest alarm or ex-
element; the misanthropy and evil forebo-
dings the self-distrust and want of confidence
in others; the incapability to study, and want
of resolution the frightful, exciting, and at all
times pleasurable dreams at night, followed
by involuntary discharges, have all disap-
peared; and, in fact, in two months after hav-
ing consulted the Doctor, | felt as if inspired
by new life-that life which, but a short
time ago, | contemplated 10 end by my own
hand
With view to guard the unfortunate from
falling into the snares of incompetent quacks,
deem 1t my duty to offer this testimony to
the merit and skill of Dr. Czapkay. and rec
ommend him to all who may stand in need of
medical advice, being assured by my own ex-
perlence, that once under his care a radical
and permanent cure will be effected

EERIVATE Medical and Surgical Institute
Il DIR. l.. j. Czapkay returns his sincere
thanks to his numerous patients for their pat
ronage, and would take this opportunity to re-
mind them that he continues to consult at his
Institute for the cure of all forms of Private
Diseases, such as Syphilis, GonorrhGa,
Nocturnal Emissions, and all the conse-
quences of self-abuse. In the first stages
OF Syphilitc or Gonorrheal diseases, he guar
antees cure in few days, without in
convenience to the patient or hindrance to
his business. When a patient, by neglect
or improper treatment, has developed the sec
ondary symptoms of Syphilis such as buboes
or painful swellings on the groins, or ulcers
in the throat and nose, which, if not checked,
destroy the soft parts and cause the bones to
mortify, separate, and come away, leaving the
sufferer an object hideous to behold or when
he has painful swellings upon the bones, or
when his constitution is injured so as to pre-
dispose to consumption, or other constitu-
tional disease, the Doctor guarantees cure or
asks no compensation.
In RHEUMATISM, chronic or acute; in
DYSENTERY or DIARRIEA, he has safe
and efiectual remedies. For the treatment of
the consequences of self-abuse, such as noe
turnal emissions, nervousness, timidlty, head
ache, pains in the back and limbs, with gen.
eral weakness, loss of appetite, loss of memo
ry, injury to the sight, restlessness, confusion
of ideas, dislike for society, and feeling of
WEAKNESS of life with the nervous system so
excitable that slight noises shock or startle
the patient, making his existence miserable
For the above maladies the Doctor will guar

call, as it will cost them nothing, and may be
much to their advantage. His offices are at

There is no malady of deeper importance,
either in medical or moral point of view, to
which the human family is more liable, than
that arising from impure connections.
As medical man. it is the duty of every
physician to look at disease as iteffects health
and life, and his sole object should be to miti-
gate. as far as lies in his power, the bodily
suffering. Human nature at best is bnt frail :;
all are liable to misfortune
OF all the ills that affect man, none are more
terrible than those of private nature Dread
ful as it is in the person who contracts it.
frightful as are its ravages upon his constitu-
tion, ending frequently in destruction and
loathsome grave, it becomes of still greater i'm.
portance when it is transmitted to innocent
offspring. Such being the case, how necessary
1t becomes that every one having the least
reason to fear that they have contracted the
disease, should attend to it at once, by consult
ing some physician whose responsibility and
education enables him to warrant a safe. speedy
and permanent cure. In accordance with this
necessity, DR.. YOUNG feels called upon to,
state that by long study and extensive prac-
tlce, he has become perfect master of all those
diseases which come under the denomination
of venereal, and having paid more attention to
that branch than any other physician in the
United States, he feels himself better qualified
to treat them.
Syphilis in all its forms, such as Swelling of
the Groins, Ulcers, Ulcers in the Throat, Sec
ondary Syphilis, Cutaneous, Eruptions, Uicera-
tions, Tertiary Syphilis in Children, Mercurial
Syphilitie Affections, GonorrhGa, Gleet, Stric-
lures, False Passages, Inflammation of the
Bladder and PROSTATE Glands, Excavations.
IumorS, Pustules, etc, are as familiar to him
as the most common things of daily observa-
ton.
The Doctor effects a cure in receiving cases
In few days, and finds no difficulty in curing
those of long duration, without submitting the
patient to such treatment as will draw upon
him the slightest suspicion, or oblige him to
neglect his business, whether within doors or
without. The diet need not be changed. ex
cept in cases of severe inflammation. There
are in California, patients, (amounting to over,
two thousand in the past year, that could fur
Eish proof of this but these are matters that
require the incest secrecy, which he always
preserves.

Bas~ We clip the following items from the
Bulletins Washington letter. dated April 4th
THE PACIFIC RAILROAD ScHEME.-The Pacific
Railroad bill has not yet been taken up. DR.
Gwin has made repeated and earnest effort,
to get it up since the Kansas bill was disnosed
OF; but the imminent necessity of having az.
ton on the bill for the increase of the army
and the pressure in behalf of Minnesota. have
together been overwhelming. Within few
Gays now, Minnesota will be disposed of, and
then the railroad will have a clear field.
The OVERLAND NAIL, VIA SALT LAKE-Sen-
ator Gwin has fully accomplished his great
scheme for thoroughly organized overland
mail to California, via Salt Lake and the Pa
cific, which | foreshadowed in my last and
which | look upon (as am sure you will also
as one of the most important enterprises of the
day. The old contract for carrying the mail
between independence and Salt Lake has been
declared forfeited; and new one has been let
to John NJ. Hockaday, James H. Jones, James
Foster and others, who agree to carry the mail
between ST. Josephs and Salt Lake, in twenty
two days, for 100000 per annum. This SER
wee commences upon the lst of May, and as
soon as the necessary arrangements can be
made, the time is to be reduced to eighteen
days, for which the compensation is to be in
creased. The service is to be performed in
four-horse coaches. Mr.. Hockaday is the
active substantial man among the contractors.
He is an experienced traveller across the Plains.

his contract, and man of indomitabIe enerpv

antee that he will make the enterprise great

THE BUTTERFIELD & Co. CONTRACT AN Ex-
PEoTED FAILURE.-The Butterfeld l. Co. $780,
900 overland contract will be a failure Marx
that. | know the contractors are talking loud
Iy here, and declaring that they will be ready
on the 10Th of September, to carry the mail
according to agreement-but you will find that
this is all humbug. They will do no such
thing, and they know 1t. The route for which
they have contracted can never be run in any,
thing like contract time-even if they had
made arrangements to run it. But this they
have not done-that is, they have made no
stations, and no depots of corn and fodder
and the entire years crop has already been en-
gaged-so that their animals would starve to
death unless they can afford to haul feed for
them from three to six hundred miles They
are here trying to get their route changed

eating the views expressed by your cores
