A CERTAIN DISEASE CURED AYITHIN ONE WEEK . In consequence of Dr . Wilkinson's extensive practice he has considered it advisable to remove from Himslet , to GO . bottom of Templar-street , for the greater convenience of his patients , where he may be consulted as usual . ~ T \ R . WILKINSON , Surgeon , No . 60 , Bottom of Templar's Street , Leeds , continues , with JL / unabated assiduity , to eradicate every species of Infection . In recent cases , ' a perfect cure is completed within a week , or no charge made for Medicines after the expiration of that period . And in those of the utmost inveteracy , where other Practitioners have failed , a proper perseverance in his plan of treatment insures to the patient , a safe , -well grounded , and lasting re-establishment , consnlttd with the greatest secrecy and honour , at his house from nine to one , and from four till sine , and on Sundays till two . He hopes that the successful , easy , asd expeditious mode he has adopted , of eradicating every symptom of a Certain Disease , without any material alteration in diet , or hindrance of business , aud yet preserving the constitution in full vigour and free from injury , will establish his claims for support . As this Disease is oce which is likely to be contracted whenever exposure takes place , it is not like many other visitors , once in life , but on the contrary , one infection may scarcely have been removed , when another may unfortunately he imbibed , therefore the Practitioner requires real judgment in order to treat each particular Case in such a manner as not merely to remove the present attack , but to preserve the constitution unimpaired , in case of a repetition at no distant period . The man of experience can avail himself of the greatest improvements in modera practice , by being able to distinguish between discharges of a specific and of a simple or mild nature , which can only be made by one in daily practice , after dne consideration of all circumstances . In the same manner at . birth , appearances often take place in children , which call for a proper knowledge and acquaintance with the disease , in order to discriminate their real nature , and which may be the means of sowing domestic discord , unless managed by the Surgeon with propriety and skill . Patients labouring under this Disease , cannot be too cautious into Wft * e hand they commit themselves . The propriety of this remark is abundantly manifested , by the same parry frequently passing the ordeal of several Practitioners , before be is fortunate enough to obtain a perfect cure . The following are some « f the many symptoms that distinguish this Disease : —a general debility , eruptions on the head , face , and body ; ulcerated sore throats , scrofula , swellings in the neck , nodes on the shin "bones , cancers , fistula , pains in the head and limbs , which are frequently mistaken Ibr rtjcumatlgm , &u . &c . Patient ? in the country , by stating their cases and enclosing a remittance , may have proper femedie sent to the amount , with directions so simple and plain , that parties of either sex may cure themselves .

AcciDENT .- ^ -Yesterday evening a distressing ac . cident occurred in the King ' s-road , Pimlico . A ^ lady and gentleman , in a one-horse chaise , were observed about six o ' clock , driving rapidly towards Chelsea , the horse continually increasing his pace and the driver still urging him on with the whip until the animal , becoming infuriated or unable to distinguish objects , galloped on at the top of hii speed , and soon dashed against a lamppost . The collision pitched out the riders and broke the shafts of the vehicle , and the horse , being liberated by th <>
force of the shock , left the chaise behind , and con . tinued to run along the road until he ' was secured . The gentleman escaped uninjured ; but the lady wag driven against the kerb-stone with such force that she received severe injuries iabout the head and other parts of the bod y , and she was removed in a state of insensibility to the house of a private family near the spot , where a medical man attended * We understand the names of the parties to be Mr , and Mrs , Thaxton ,. of the Waterloo-road . The horse and chaise belong to Mr . Grey , Earl-street , Blackfriars . The horse is not hurt ;
STfiAM VESSELS , —A piece of mechanism hai been invented by Dr . Lardner , and constructed for the Steam Navigation Committee of the British Association , which must tend in a great degree to remove the causes which have recently produced so many lamentable accidents in steam vessels . The object of this machine is to keep a self-acting regii ter of the state of every part of the working machinery and boilers , so that not only the captain and engi . neers can at all rimes , by the mere inspection of a sheet of paper , ascertain the state of every part of the machinery on which its safety and efficiency itpend , but the owners of the vessel will have a faithful and accurate record preserved of the state and performance of the engines every hour during tie voyage . On the return of the vessel to port , tha
scroll or self-written journal being taken out , any neglect which may have been committed either in feeding the boilers , tending the fires , or , in a word , any omission of duty on the part of any persoii em . ployed about the machinery , will be there noted witfc the exact time at which such neglect or omission occuxed . If a register , therefore , be kept of the successiou . of men employed in the several departments , the culpable r ** - * r * rl" t > e made known . The mechanism is enclosed in an octagonal case , to be locked duringthe voyage , aud inaccessible to atoj one on board the vessel , the keys remaining ashore with the owners . A casing of plate glass surroundi the paper scroll on which the performance of die machinery will be written , so that those in the can of the vessel may see what is written , but cannot interfere with it . This mechanism is now
completed , and will be shown during the present week to scientific men and others who feel an interest in such matters , after which it will be placed u the Peninsular Company ' s steam ship the Tdgvx ) for which this particular machine has been , adapted . —Courier . ¦ Mablborough-Street .-t—AWashing-dat Rumpus . Of all days of the year the most important day . in the eyes of careful housewives b doubtless a ' washing 'day . To make matters pleasant to all the six lodger ? in one house in Marlborough-court , to which but one yard was , attached , the landlord had appointed each occupant , on taking
a room , an especial day on which the lady-tenaat was to have full and entire control of the copper aii drying ground , in order to afford herdue facility io the discharge of the onerous and necessary duties tf the wash-tub . The first-floor lodger , with the taiirig name of Mrs ; Susan Comel y , had , on Tuesdaj last , in defiance of weather wisei Murphy ' s previoja prognostications , commenced her monthly wail , and was going on swimmingly among the so ap-sudi , when an unlooked-for event brought her into cbfr tact with "Mrs . Stewart , the second-floor lodger , and the result was , thatboth ladies—little but desperate —made their appearance before the magistrates , bj virtue of an assault warrant obtainedt by mii
Comely . The complainant having disposed of the customary piece of family biography , the length d time she had been married , the number of children she had , and the terms on which she had taken ha last lodging , entered into a short digression toneiing the manifold inconveniences she had put tip with in consequence of her " wash" being too heavy to be cleverly' disposed of in one day . " However , your worship / ' said she ^ "la week before I was pat to bed with my little Billvj who has jtjst cut his fiirt tootb , and is now very bad with the measles , I Mia to Mr .
