To Invalids and the Public:

10 1nval1dS and the PUBIC:
DR.. A. NJ. French. formerly of New YorE
| City, respectfully announces that he has resum.
| ed practice and will, for many years to come,
visit monthly nearly all of the principal cities
| of the Union at stated periods for treatment OF
| all forms o: chronic disease. Having just re-
turned from Europe where he has for the past
TEN YEARS been devoting his time exclusively
to the treatment Of patients in the principal
hospitals in France, England and Germany, he
can assure the afflicted that in all chronic dis
eases he can safely be relied upon. Among the
chronic ailments which he cures he would men,
ton the following.
All diseases of the Liver, usually called Liver

Consumption, Coughs, Bronchitis Loss OF Voice,
Sore Throat, Asthma, etc., etc; Dyspepsia, or
Sourness of the Stomach after meals, Splitting

Rheumatism, Dropsies Palpitaton of the Heart,
Epilepsy or Fits, Scrofula, all diseases of the
Blood, Eruptions, Salt Rheum, y! Debili-
ty, Nervousness, and alldiseases peculiar to the
Female system.
Having, as above stated, made all the above
and their kindred complaints long life study,
and having seen, personally examined and trea-
each variety of these diseases, DR.. French feels
confident that in Offering his services to the af-
ficted world in this way, he is simply acting in
the line of duty. He has no desire to be any
thing less than STRICTLY HONORABLE with all
who may seek his aid. and will therefore still
adhere to the rule he adopted in early life, new
err to aatter the sick and inspire hopes ofrecov-
cry, unless the admits of no doubt in that
respect Many cases being INcURABLE, and as
he does not wish to put any Of this class to ex-
pense, he has devised q wayin which his opin-
ion may be obtained free of charge. The par
tculars in regard to this will be given under the
head Of "Waste Of Time All persons who
may think Of consulting DIR. French, should
read this whole column before calling on him
personally, or making up their minds what is
best for them to do. The sick are so often dis.
appointed in their search for means Of reief--so
often fattered by the dishonest and inspired
with hopes that were never realized-that it is
not matter of wonder that they have in many
instances grown sick at heart and yielded to
despair. DR.. French will deal honoraby with
ALL, believing that always to be the best policy.
His fees for treatment will be reasonable and
not be reqaired from any patient until a cure is
effected, and his charge for medicines will b,
only what they cost him. His appointments
are as follows:
NEW YORK CITY, the first day of each
month.

0F-The names Of the hotels at which DR.
French will stop while visiting the foregoing
cities have not been inserted because he must
necessarily change them from time to time

patients required to write him letter before
coming to see him and in his reply the name Of
the Hotel will be given. [See the article below
headed Waste of Time.'l
Dr. F.'s object in making the foregoing visits
is to afford all parsons a less expensive means
of treatment than if they were compelled to
travel many hundreds Of miles for that purpose.
