FALSE ON MEDICAL GALVANISM.
" Mr. HALSE, late of this county, but now of 5, Pelham-
crescent, Brompton, London, has lately published a pamphlet on
MEDICAL GALVANISM, the contents of which have really asto-
nished us. If it be true that galvanism can assaccomih such cures as
are there stated, the galvanic apparatus must take commanding a
position over medical science as the steam-engine does over mecha-
nical science. It is tree that galvanism has long been resorted to as
a remedial agent, but the old form of batteries were so uncertain in
their action as to almost do as much harm as they did good. Mr.
liaise, like a true philosopher, conceived that it may be possible to
select the good and discard the evil effects of the apparatus, and after
years of intense study he has accomplished what he desired—viz., to
regulate the power of the galvanic apparatus to the greatest nicety.
We consider this to rank as the greatestlmprovement
et which
notic hased an
ever
been made in the galvanic battery. In i
thme
extract from the ' Shipping and Mercantile Gazette' of March 14.
We extract this article for the benefit of invalids :—' Our readers may
have noticed several extracts we have given from
Mr. Halse's
pamphlet on Medical Galvanism. We have reason to believe that
every ease stated in that pamphlet is perfectly true, wonderful as they
curry
inly are ; for, a short time since, we called on Mr. Heise, and
were introduced to him by a gentleman who was undergoing the
operation. The patient informed us that it was not at all an e
f unplea-
snt snsatin, ndee welt it ourselves, and there was not the least
unapleasantnesse oi
aboutd it. This gentleman's ease was paralysis, and
he de, lared to us that before he c
now, said he,ame to Mr. liaise
you per one leg had
-.4 away to mere skeleton ; " bu"
-.el healthy." Such, indeed, was thl case. If we
-meats Mr. Raise has, we should say he
-- me house is crowded from
vale's pamphlet

N%

is making some very wonderful cures, .
