one of the most extraordinary phenomena

The solid and substantial liberties INTENDED

4 DR.. l.. J. Czapkay returns his sincere
i 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 Syphiltic or Gonorrheal diseases, he guar
antees cure in few days, without in
! convenience to the patient or hindrance to
/ his business. When patient, by neglect
or improper treatment, has developed the Sec
ondary symptoms of Syphilis, such as buboes
or painful swelings 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 swelings 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 DIARRIIGA, he has safe
and effectual remedies. For the treatment of
the consequences of self-abuse, such as noe
turnal emissions, nervousness, timidty, 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
weariness of life; with the nervous system so
exctablc that slight noises shock or startle
the patient, making his existence miserable.
For the above maladies the Doctor will guar
antce cure or ask no compensation. He can
be consulted free of charge and invites all to
call, as it will cost them nothing, and may be
much to their advantage. His offices are at

The undersigned, desrous of acquainting
those who may be unfortunate enough to be
similarly afflicted, where 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-
clous 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 trifing Importance !;
but, alas after a few weeks, and in several
instances months, of their treatment, l found
to my unutterable horror, that instead of re-
lief, my symptoms became more alarming in
their torture and, being told by one, that my
disease, being principally confined to the brain
medicines would be of little consequence, |
dcspalred of ever regaining my health, strength
and energy and, as last resort, and with
but a faint hope, called upon Dr. Czapkay,
VINO, 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-
vice, my head became clear, my ideas collected.
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-
cltement; the misanthropy and evil forebo-
dings the sef-distrust and want of confidence

of resolution; the frightful, exciting, and at all
times pleasurabe 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 short
time ago, | contemplated TO end by my own
hand.
With view to guard the unfortunate from
falling into the snares of incompetent quacks,
deem it 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-
perence, that once under his care a radical
and permanent cure will be effected

From MINISTER'S vale they bropobt b.r
From the pure and balny air,
An Ormond PEASANTS daughter.
win blue eyes and golden hair
Ihey brought her to the city,
And she faded slowly there;
consumption has no pity,
FOR blue eyes and golden hair.
When ! saw her first reclining.
Her lips were moved in prayer,
AND the setting sun was shining
On her loosened golden hair.
When our kindly glances met her,
Deadly brilliant was her eye;
And she said that she was better,
While we knew that she must die.
She speaks of Munster valleys,
The patron, dance and fair;
And her thin hand feebly dallies,
With her scattered golden hair.
When silently we listened,
To her breath with quiet care,
Her eyes with wonder glistened,
And she asked us what was there.
The poor thing smiled to ask it,
And her pretty mouth laid bare,
Like gems within casket,
A string of pearlets rare.
We said that We were trying,
By the gushing of her blood
And the time she took in signing.
To know If she were good
Well, she smiled and chatted gaiIy,
Though We saw in mute despair
The hectic brighten daily,
And the death-dew on her hair.
And oft her wasted fingers
Beating time upon the bed,
Oer some old tune she fingers,
And she bows her golden head.
At length the harp is broken,
And the spirit in its strings,
AS the last decree is spoken,
To its source exulting springs.
Descending swiftly from the skies,
Her guardian angel came,
He struck Gods lightning from her ewes
And bore Him back the flame.
Before the sun had risen,
Through the rk-loved morning air,
Her young soul left its prison,
Undeflled by sin or care,
stood beside the couch in tears.
Where pale and calm she slept;
Or though I've gazed on death for years,
| blush not that | wept.
l checked with effort PHYS sighs,
And left the matron there,
To close the curtains of her eyes,
And bind her golden hair.
