DR.. JAMES' DISPENSARY.
No. 82 Customhouse St.,
BETWEEN ROYAL AJfD BOURBOJf STS.,
New Orleans*
for the Ptrmtnent Cure and Eradication of
all Private Diteaeet, without Mercury,
Hindrance from Btuineet, or Expo-
owe to Friends, with the use of
Newly Discovered Remedies.
A cure Guarantied in all
eases, when within
the power of
Remedies.
THB unparalleled success which has attended
these REMEDIES in all parts of the U. States
and Europe, the many remarkable cures they have
effected which werepronunced incurable by the most
eminent Physicians, justifies me in offering them to
the confidence of the unfortunate. The following
are some of the diseases termed "Private," all of
which these remedies permanently eradicate, viz -
Syphilis, primary, secondary and tertiary; T7ri
thkal Discharges, Gonorrhoea, Gleet, Noctur-
hal Emissions, Periodical Amc-notts or Fiif ale*,
however complicated they may be; Diseases or the
Back and I ions, Inflammation or toe Bladder
and Kidneys, Rheumatism, Hydrocele, Cancers,
Ulcers, Tcmors, and all diseases of the skin.
Strictures cured without the use of the Bougie
or any instrument.
Dr. Jakes would also call the attention especially
of those who have privately and improperly injured
themselves in that secret and solitary habit which
ruins the body and mind, unfitting them for either
business or society, vix: Constitual Debility or Im-
potence). The following are some of the sad ami
melancholy effects produced by early habits of y o th
viz: Weakness of the Back and Limbs, Pain in the
Head. Dimness of Vision, Los* of Muscular Power,
Palpitation of the Heart, Dispepsia, Nervousness,
Irritability, Symptoms of Consumption, etc. Men
tally, the fearfnl effects on the mind are more to
dreaded. Lou of Memory, Confusion of Ideas- re-
pression of Spirits Evil foreboding, Aversi ; to
Society, Self-Distrust, Love of Solitude, T midity
etc.. are some ofthe evil'produced.
All persons afflicted with any of the a >vesymp
toms should not fail to call on Dr. Jam-and be at
once restored to perfect health. Let no false deli-
cacy prevent you, but apply immediately, and save
yourself from the awfnl and dreadful consequences
of this terrible malady Weakness of the organs
immediately cured, and fall vigor restored.
P. S. —Persons residing out of the city ,or who can-
not visit me personally.by giving particulars of.dis-
ease, in letter, and enclosing a fee of Ten Dollars,
will have the Remedies of disease sent to their ad-
dress, enclosed in a small package and concealed
from observation. No communication noticed un
less accompanying the fee as the numerous corres-
pondence of the Doctor forbid*.
Consultations held strictly confi lential.

THE subscribers manufacture from the BEST

Circular Saws,
from two inches to six feet in diameter. These Saws
are hardened and tempered, and are ground and fin-
ished by Machinery, designed expresslv for the pur-
pose, and are therefore much superior in truth and
unifomity of surface to those ground in theuiual man
ner. They require less set, less power to drive them,
are not so liable to beet me htated, and produce a sa-
ving in timber. They al?o manufacture cast Steel
Mill, Pit Crosscut Saws and Billet Webs, of supe-
rior quality, all which they have for sale, at their

appointed by the American Institute:—
"Your committee are of unanimous opinion, that
in the apparatus invented by Mr. R. M. Hoc, for
grinding saws, he has displayed great ingenuity
and tact in the adaptation of machinery to the pro-
duction of results in the manufacture of Saws, which
may. with propriety, he denominated the JVe Plus

information of interest to the Sawyer, will be sent
