MINING CORNS AND BUNIONS REMOVED. DR. BYRON ©. KENNEDY, practical Curroronrsr, late of Philadelphia, would most respectfully inform the citizens of San Francisco that he has opened his office at No. 12 Montgome’ kde ctl the Lick House, where he is repare ove all excresences, such as Corns, Bunions, nverted Nails, Enlarged Joints, Swelled Tusteps, Frosted Feet, Chilblains, Callosities, and all diseases of the Feet, without pain or inconvenience to the patient. i Dr. Kennedy also attends to Ganglion, or Scorbutic Ulcers, and all other’ diseases of the Skin. He may be consulted at his office, No, 12 Montgomery street, opposite the Lick House, from 9 to 124.™., and 2 to6p.m. Having devoted six years of study to this important, but too much neglected, branch of human knowledge, and having studied anatomy under the mostskiitul and scientific Professors of Philadelphia, and having made this branch of surgical science my speciality for nine years, enables me to operate skilfolly and successfully. In England, France and Austria the highest prizes are often awarded to practitioners in this branch of surgical science, and it occupies with others an equally lo{ty position in the profession. Voizin is an illustrious example, a shining light, among the philosophical stars of Europe, and Dr. Byron CO. Kengedy has fully equsled him in this country, as a proof of which the Faculty of the University College of Philadelphia, Pa., complimented him with testimenials. Dr. Kennedy has bent his earnest attention to the cure of these diseases, in which he has become so great an expert that he is now regarded as the leader in this country, in this branch of the profession, throughout the United States. The following letter, which emphatically speaks for itself, was written by Dr. W. L. Stevens of the University College of Philadelphia ; Dr. Byron C. Kxsyexy: Dear Sir—Learning that you are going to take your departure for California, and wishing to inform the citizens of Philwdelphia and also the people of the State of California the es niv which we hold you, and knowlng that nothing is more essential to your suec« than the encouragement which you may receive from the people of Philadelphia, in the midst of which is the playground of your boyhood, and knowing that you haye devoted yoarsof sindy to this important but too much ndglected branch of human knowledge; that you have attained to the highest rank in your profession, siveral of the Faculty and othor prominent citizens of Philadelphia having submitted to yoar manipulation, we cin recommond you with confidence to the citizens of San Francisco, as ove of the moat skilful surgeons of the age, aud we hopo your success may be such as will repay you for your years of study, aud that you may find a broad flola’ for your oxertio sin tho new and growing city of the Pacific.

PARDEE, Oculist and Aurist to the San Francisco Deaf, Dumb und Blind Asylum. After a protracted blindness of more than five years, Dr. PARDEE hes made himself thoroughly and scientifically acquainted with all diseases of the Eye, and is now practicing with a success that cannot be surpassed in the United States; and as proof of this he substantiates by many cases now in California that have been cured by him, after having exhausted the skill of the eminent physicians and oculists of New York city, Boston and Philadelphia. From an extensive practical knowledge of more than 14 years, Dr. Pardee asserts, and is prepared to prove, that there has been more blindness from bad and improper treatment than from disease itselt—how can it be otherwise when we take into consideration the effects of the old hacknied course of local treatment that patients undergo—Caustic to-day and Bluestone to-morrow—more painful than death, and always more tedious than the disease. Patients are daily presenting themselves with chronic cases, and on inquiring what had been formerly done, the almost invariable reply is, “ L had my eyes burned with caustic or bluestone ;” “T was bled and blistered, then cupped two or three times a week—had a blue pill preseribed for me at night, and salts in the morning—was ordered in a dark room—to keep my eyes tightly bandaged—to avoid the open air and exercise,” with fifty other inconsistencies, the aggregate of which is sure blindness. Patients should be careful and not place
their eyes at the mercies of a man who does nothing but burn them daily, not investigating the cireumstances of each particular case; but ignorantly and blindly adopting and following theories the most erroneous, and destructive to the eye. How much more rational ané consistent to consult an experienced Oculist, who thoroughly understands every disease of this tender organ in all its aspects and varieties. Dr. PARDEE has from sixty to one hundred patierts wader his daily supervision, and, with but very few cases, they have all been treated by other physicians hefore applying to him—andy all to no benefit. ‘hose who are doubtful ave permitted to callat Dr. Pardee’s office and confer with the many patients who convene there between the hours of 9 and 12 in the forenoon. The Dr. has a large and only assortment of Artificial Eyes on this coast, inserted, haying all the moyements of the real eye, and that they look so life-like that no one can tell them, when properly inserted, from the realeye. These eyes are sold reasonable.
