THE DIRECTORS OF THIS CELEBRATED
l. Medical Institute wish to thank the public
for the generous manner in which they have sus-
tanned the Resident Physician with their patron
age. 1t is now six years since the Institute was
established; during that time there has been over
THIRTY THOUSAND CONSULTATIONS, and
in all cases. where the diseases was curable,
PERFECT AND PERMANENT CURE
Has been performed. Malicious charlatans have
opened traps in close proximity to the Institute;
adopting similar names, hoping to attract the
unwary but their failure to do so is perfectly
apparent-for the business has not been effected
in the least, but has gone on increasing its use
fulness and profits in regular ratio. The Resi-
dent Physician has by careful study and expert.
ence within the last few years been successful in
discovering new electric remedies which are far
superior to any before used in the healing art,
and he can
Warrant them to Cure
All cases for which they are used, or make no
charges for services. They will be forwarded to
any place in the Pacific States upon the receipt
of letter stating the disease with symptoms,
the age and sex of the patient.
The Female Medicines
Discovered and used by the Resident Phys-
clan, are the only remedies which are safe and
sure to have the effect. The large number of
cases in which they have been used, is guaran-
tee of their success.
Great care should be taken in visiting the In

Professor Newton, of Yale College, pro-

of the kind, will make its appearance, prob
ably for the last time in this century,
Only thirteen Of these meteorc showers are

than two huudred and forty thousand

In an era of corruption and protflg gacy
without parallel in the annals Of crime, when
honesty was by word, when infdeity in re-
ligiou, bribery in politics and perfdy in pri-

behed you with an untarnished reputation

In bringing it into use. In some respects it
differs from any pans now in use, the grind

currents are creating which keep the pulp
continually in motion, and bringing the
coarser particles under the mullers. Our
opinion is that it will be found an excellent
pan, both for grinding and amalgamatirg Q

ELECTRoPATHY. The readers OF this article are.
particularly requested to read the advertisement
of the "Electropathic Institute" GAS Washing
ton street. San Francisco to be found in another
column Of this paper. The remarkable cures that
have been effected by Dr. J. IL. Josselyn, She
Resident Physician of the Institute during the
past six years, has gained for this establishment
a reputation that has never been equaled by any
medical establishment on this coast. In cases of
female irregularities especially, DR.. Josseyn has
gained an invaluable reputation, and the spa
cous parlors Of the Institute are contantly oc-
cupied by ladies taking relief from their trou-
bles.
DR.. Josselyn pays particular attention TO the
treatment Of cases in the interior of the State.
and upon receipt of full description of the
disease Of which the applicant is so unfortunate
as to be afflicted. accompanied with a real or q
fictitious address, sends per Wells. Fargo Il

From the Mountain Democrat.1

READ i've heartily recommend those of our
readers who may be suffering from disease of
long standing, or from complaints brought on
from the use of mercury, at some former period
OF our lives, to read the advertisement of the
Electropathc Institute, to be found in our adver-
Using columns. DR.. j. H. Josselyn, the Resident
Physician, has occupied that position for six
years, and taking into consideration the fact that
all the Directors of the Institute are all medical
men OF high standing in the community, it may
be considered as proof OF Dr.. Josselyn's ability
that nc has been retained in the position so long.
DR.. Josselyn is q regular graduate and is also
considered by competent judges to be the most
scientific and successful electrician in the United
States; he will cure more than half the diseases
that flesh is heir to without the use of any medi-
cine whatever, but gives medicines in ali cases
where it is deemed necessary, but never uses any
thing but vegetable preparations. The doctor
has been very successful in his treatment of
diseases incident to females, and enjoys much
larger practice in that particular line than any
other physician on the Pacific coast, The Elec-
tropathic Institute is located on one of the most
popular streets in San Francisco, the rooms for
the reception of patients are fitted up in style
oil magnfcencc never before attempted by any
medical establishment on this coast, and the In
stltute is rated in San Francisco as the best in
the city.

GLAD TO HEAR Ir.-For several months past
Dr.. j. Ii. Josselyn for the last six years so we'll
known as the Resident Physician Of the Electro
pathic Institute, G45 Washington street. San
Francisco, has contemplated retiring from his po-
sitlon for the purpose OF accepting the position
as Visiting Physician in one of the large hospi-
tails in his native State Massachusetts, The mat
ter becoming known to a number of scientific
gentlemen of San Francisco, who, feeling that
great loss would occur TO the community by the
withdrawal Of physician of such scientific at
tainments as Dr. Josselyn, meeting was called
at which resolutions highly laudatory of the
Doctors abilities were passed. and a committee of
gentlemen appointed to wait upon him, present
the resolutions, and urge him to give up his in
tention of leaving the State, and continue in his
present position. The arguments of the commit.
tee facilitated by certain pccuniary propositions,
made by the directors of the Institute, have in
duced the Doctor to retain his position as Resi-
dent Physician. We announce the success of the
negotiations with satisfaction, as il would have
been difficult for the numerous patients THAI
heretofore relied on thelDoctor for scientific and
successful treatment to have found another physi-
clan capable of filing his place.

a sumptuous dinner, to which all and every
body did ample justice, the youthful aspi-
rants for the prize entered the broad amphi-
theatre of contest buoyant with hope though
nervous with excitement. After repeated
trials of skill, Master Alden Morrison was

greatest number of rings, and beautiful

his 'Ladye Fayre." With much taste, he
