DEFICIENCY OF NERVOUS ENERGY.

GALVANISM THE SUREST• CURE FOR IT.
WBAT IS " DEFICIENCY OF NERVOUS
EN I,,RGY ?" It is a withdrawal of nervous fluid from
any particular muscle or organ affected. For instance, sup-
pose the stomach is so weak that it cannot digest food, the
stomach is then deficient of nervous energy, for exp,,riinents
made on animals prove that if the nerves which lead from the
spine to the stomach are separated, so as to cut off the supply
of nervous fluid, all digestion ceases on the instant. Again, !
suppose any muscle or limb so weak that it cannot perform its
functions, that muscle or limb is deficient of nervous energy.
We may pursue the same reasoning as regarils the brain, and
hence the reason of lowness of spirits, want of resolution, tor-
por of all the intellectual Towers, loss of memory, &c. The
question which now arises is this,—" Can Galvanism supply the
various organs with nervous energy when they are deficient of
it?" To reply to this question we must go to experimental
facts—facts so well authenticated, that no physiologist of the
present c-lay denies them. The following. experiment is car chi-
sive. and will convince the most sceptical that Galvanism can
not only supply the place of the nervous fluid, but that the gal-
vanic fluid and the nervous fluid is one and the same thing. In
Dr. Nilson Phillip's celebrated work, entitled "An Enquiry
into the Laws of the Vital Functions," several. experiments,
similar to the following one, were made in order to decide the
long-disputed question as to whether the galvanic fluid was
identical with the nervous fluid. Three dogs were procured
and kept without food for a certain time, when they were al-
lowed to eat as much as they felt inclined to. On two of the
dogs, the operation was performed of dividing the eighth pair
of nerves, in order to prevent the flow of nervous influence to
the stomach. Nothing was done to the third dog at this stage
of the experiment. A stream of galvanic fluid was now passed
through the divided nerves of one of the dogs, and, at the ex-
piration of four hours, the three dogs were killed. On examin-
ing the stomach of the non-galvanised dog, not a particle of
food was digested; whilst the food of the galvanised don pre-
sented exactly the same appearance as that in the stomach of
the dog which had not had the operation performed of siividiag
the nerves Such experiments as thes,-, most come home to the
conviction of the most sceptical; for nothing can be a more
convincing proof that the galvanic fluid and the nervous fluid
is the same thing, and that the galvanic battery, when properly
applied, will cure those complaints properly styled "a defici-
ency of nervous energy." Invalids in the country are informed
that I continue to supply my Por able Galvanic Apparatus at
Ten Guineas each ; and that with my instructions, they will he
enabled to apply the Galvanism just as effectually as they could
receive it at my own residence. I take this opportunity to caution
parties against using those small electro-magnetic apparatuses
having only one or two pair of plates, for their constant eff2ct is,
to irritate the whole nervous system. My apparatus, which has
now become so celebrated, consists of twelve pair of zinc and
silver plates, and a most complete regulating apparatus, with
wire handles, &c. The whole is contained in a neat mahogany
box, about two feet long, one foot high, and one foot broad;
and when in action, is an ornament to any drawing-room, and
is, in short, perfection itself. From the weakest to the stronk
es. power there are fifteen gradations, the use of which is de-
scribed in my sixth and seventh letters on Medical Galvanism
(see my pamphlet) to which I hegto refer the reader's at tultion.
The extraordinary cures I have made by means of Galvanism
have so astonished the whole medical world, that I am now
patronised by the highest of the Medical Profession. The most
timid nee , not be afraid of using my apparatus, as the power
of it is entirely under command, and the power of it can he
regulated so accurately, that an infant rosy be Ivanised by it
without canting it to cry. The price is Ten Guineas. The
cash to accompany the order.

the galvanic fluid is quite free from all unpleasant sensation;
in fact, it is rather pleasurable than otherwise, and many ladies
are exceedingly fond of it. It quickly causes the patient to "o
