ELECTRoPATHY.-The readers of this article are
particularly requested to read the advertisement
of the "Electropathic Institute" 6i5 Washington
street, San Francisco to be found in another col
umn of this paper. The remarkable cures that
have been effected by DR.. j. H. Josselyn the Resi-
dent Physician of the Institute during the past six
years, has gained for this establishment a reputa-
tion that has never been equalled by any medical
establishment on this coast. In cases of female ir-
regularites especially, DR.. Josselyn has gained
envabe reputation and the spacious parlors of the
Institute continually occupied by ladies seeking
relief from their troubles.
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 unfortunate to be af-
ficted accompanied with the real or fictitious ad-
dress, sends per Wells Fargo & Co., medicines
that he warrants to cure the disease, without the
slightest injury to the system He uses no mercu-
ry or mineral poisons. The remedies used
known as "Electric,' - and most of them of his
own discovery. Persons placing the mselves under
the treatment of DR.. J. H. Josselyn may rely upon
not only receiving and successful treatment
but upon his discretion and secrecy.

SUCCESS TIE TRUE STANDARD OF MERIT-If there
is any truth in the above ''od adage, then it will
apply to the Electropathic Institute of San Francis
CO. This establishment was opened to the public
about six years since, under the management of
Dr. J. II. Josselyn, who has during that time treat
cd upwards of twenty thousand cases of disea.e to
successful issue, with the exception of a very
small number, who were too far gone, having been
overdos ed with poisonous drugs by of the nu-
merous quacks with which this State abounds. Du-
ring the above time the Resident Physician, DIR. J.
II. Jossclyn, has received and replied not less
than six thousand five hundred letters, besides
giving his personal attention to all the patients
der treatment at the Institute. An amount of
work that it would be hard to find another man on
this coast with physical power sufficient for the
dertaking, and yet the Resident Physician is
to all app earsnces of very delicate constitution,
but his scientific attainme nts such as to enable
him to determine the nature of the disease with
which the applicant may be afflicted, almost in
stantly, and to prescribe such treatment will
produce speedy and permanent cure The mode
oil treatment at this institute is peculiar no poison
Gus drugs whatever are given under any circum-
stances and in nu nerous instances the sick per-
mar emily cured without the use of particle of
met cine of any kind. Persons requiring aphysic-
iau whom they can rely, will do well to read tn e
advertisement of the Electropathic Institutes else
where in columns.
From the Mountaiu Democrat.
READ lT.-We heartily recommend those OF our
readers who nav be suffering from disease of long
standing, or from comp apts brought on by the use
ercury at former period of their lives to read
the advertisement of the Electropathc Institute
be found in advertising columns. DIR. ]. II L.
Josselyn, the resident Physician, has occupied that
position for six years, and taking into consideration
the fact that all the Directors of the Institute
medical men of high standing in the community, it
may be ctnsidered proof of DR.. Josseyn's ability
that he has been retained in the position long,
DR.. Jossclyn is regular graduate, and is also
sidereG by competent judges to tie the most scien-
tic and successful electrician in the United States
he will cure Tore than half the diseases that flesh
Is heir to without the use of any medicine whatey
er, but gives medicine in all where it is deem
ed necessary but never anything but vegetable
preparations. The doctor has been very successful
IN his treatment of diseases incident to females and
enjoys a much larger practice in that particular
other physician
ne Electropathc Institute is located of the
most popular streets in San Francisco, the rooms
for the reception of patients fitted up in style
of magnitcence never before attempted by any med
cal establishment this coast, and the Institute
is rated in San Francisco the best in the city.
A GRAND SUccEss.-During the past year, some
half dozen 'bogus Medical Institutes in San Fran
cisco have "handed in their checks" and closed
their DOORS without an exception, the establish
ments alluded to were conducted by individuals
that knew little no. hing of the pructice of medi-
cine, and established for the pr rpose of lch-
ing money from the sick and unfortunate, For a
number of years these fellows succeeded in swind-
ling their victims without let hndrance, but in
1860 certain well known medical practitioners de-
termined to put stop to the imposition. They ac-
cordingly established the Electropathlc Institute''
at 6i5 Washington street. and placed it in charge of
Dr. J. ii. Josselyn, gentleman in every way COM
pet mt for the position with instruction to warrant
perfect cure in all cases undertaken by him,
refund the money. They advertise largely, and the
responsibility of the Institute well known
that the sick fockcd to the office for advice and
treatment in swarns. The effect has begun to be
made manifest. Some six of the medical ssbilkng''
establishments have closed their doors, and several
more will shortly follow. The business of the In
stitute has become extensive that the Directors
contemplate erecting larger and more elegant edi-
flee for their use during the coming summer.

THE BEST is THE CHEAPEST This adage will ap-
ply well to the practice of medicine the
purchase of merchandise. Thousands on this coast
during the past fifteen years, have had their
stitutions rnined by refusing treatment at the
hands of frst-class physicians, simply because a
gang of humbugs styling themselves doctors, and
WHO are almost destitute of common sense, much
of medical knowledge, offer to treat those who
sick for less sum than regular practitioner.
A man that would allow quack 20 administe ter med
out of ten, the medicine given, instea of cur
ing the disease, makes the patient worse and does
permanent injury to the system, and oftentimes to
such extent to prevent the possibility of
ing the original disease. The fact is that person
should place himself in charge of ply sician unless
he has strong pronfs that the doctor is a regular
graduate from some well reputed Medical College.
The number of medical humbugs in San Francisco is
perfectly enormous not more than two of the ad-
yertised physicians have a diploma. DR.. II. JOS
selyn, Resident Ply sician of the Eectropathic In
stitute is of these, and is prepared at all times
to exhibit his diplomas.
