On Sunday evening last, 1t. Col.
Manchester, of the Marine Artillery,
with detachment Of sixty men, were
o dered on board the Allison TO proceed
to Smiths Creek, about thirty miles
below Newbern, on the North side OF
the Neuse, to arrest al officer of the
rebel army, who was supposed to be
collecting conscripts IN that vicinity.
The expedition arrived near The Creek,
about ten o'clock in the evening, and
larded. After marching about twelve
miles, and searching several houses,
they captured Lt.-CoL W. II. Smell, Of
tho 18th North Carolina, and Captain
Saltels of the same regiment. 1t seems
that It. Col. Smell had been troubled
with premonitions of coming danger,
and lrad repeatedly changed his quar-
ters within the last few days, but with
no avail. His horse and equipments
were also secured. The capture is a
very important one, as the Colonel has
been very active in raising rebel troops
and possessed great influence.

Persons afflicted with symptoms after being treat

there is particle of disease left in the system it will
break out some future time, when least expected,
be handed down to an innocent offspring. Persons
who have been treated with mercury should be very
cautious in believing that they weh, for it is
scientific fact thatt he mercury will mingle with the

should consult Dr. Young and he will examine their

Caution to the Public.

Every intelligent aud thinking person must KNOW
that remedies handed ont for general use should
have their efficacy established by well tested eXpe-
rienre in the hands of regularly educated physi-
cian whose prennratorv study fits him for all the
dpes he must fulfill vet the country is flooded with
moor nostrums and cure.alls. purporing to be the
hest in the world, which are not only useless, but
always injurious The unfortunate should be PAR.

general practice for il is point generally conceded
by the best syphographers, that the study ana man
agpment ofthese complaints should engross the whole
time of those who would be competent and successful
in their treatment and cure. The inexperienced gen
eral practitioner. having neither opportunity nor
time to make himself sufficiently acquainted with
their pathology commonly pursues one system OF treat
ment in most cases making an indiscrmlnate use of
that antiquated and dangerous weapon. mercury.
Mo-e caution. however. should be used by thesyph-
itic patient in consulting nominal physicians Of
the advertising class as nine tenths Of them are i'm
posters who assume German, French. or other
names and are without any claims to medical knCwl-

and by means of their lying advertisements and pos
ters they induce the unwary to enter their Peter

and poison them with mercury. Persons living at

the living notices Of quacks than citizens.
