ELECTRoFATHY.-The readers of this article are
particularly requested to read the advertisement
of the 'tEectropathic Institute," 645 Washington
street, San Francisco, to be found in another col
| umn of this paper. The remarkable cures that
have been effected by DR.. J. II. Josselyn, the Resi-
dent Physician of the Institute during the past six
years, has gained for this establishment reputa-
tion that has never been equaled by any medical
establishment on this coast In of female ir-
regularties especially, DR.. Josselyn has gained an
envable reputation, and the spacious parors of the
Institute continually occupied by ladies seeking
relief from their troubles
DIR. Josselyn pays particular attention to the
treat uent of in the interior of the State and
upon receipt of full description of the disease of
which the app lcant is SO 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 HI uses uo mercu-
ry or mineral posons. The remedies used are
known ''Electric,' and most of them of his
own discovery. Persons placing the mselves under
the treatment of DIR. J. H. Josselyn may rely upon
not only receiving correct and successful treatment
but upon his discretion and secrecy.

SUCCESS THE TRUE STANDARD OF MERIT.-If there
is any truth in the above 'sold adage,' then it will
apply to the Eectrnpathic Institute of San Francis
co. This establishment opened to the public
about SIX years since, under the. management of
DR.. J. II. Josselyn, who has during tat time treat
ed upwards of twenty thousand of disease to
a successful issue, with the exception of very
overdosed with poisonous drugs by some of the nu-
merous quacks with which this State abounds. Du-
ring the above time the Resident Physician, Dr. j.
H. Josselyn, has received and replied to 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 ap earences of very delicate constitution
but his scientific attanme such as to enable
determine
which the applicant may be afflicted almost in
stantly, and to prescribe such treatment as will
produce speedy and permanent cure The mode
of treatment at this institute is peculiar poison
GUS drugs whatever are given under any circum-
stances, and i'll numerous instances the sick per-
maj emily ed without the use of one particle of
medicine of any kind. Persons requiring physic-
iau on whom they rely, will do well read the

[From the Contra Costa Gazette, Jan l3, 1861
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 excepti N, the establish
ments alluded to. were conducted by individuals
that knew little nothing of the pructice of medi-
cine, and were established for the purpose of flch-
| ing money from the sick and unfortunate, For a
number OF years these fellows succeeded in swind-
ling their victims without let b hndrance, but in
1860 certain well known medical practitioners de
termined to put stop to the imposition. They &C
cordlngly established the Electropathlc Institute
at 6l5 Washington street, and placed it in charge of
Dr. J. II. Josseyn, gentleman in every way COM
pet MT for the position, with instruction to
q perfect cure IN all cases Undertaken by him,
refund the money. They advertise largely, and the
respectabihty of the Institute was so well known
that the sick focked to the office for advice and
treatment in sw arms. The effect has begun to be
made Sonle OF the medical
establishments have closed their doors, and several
more will shortly follow. The business of the In
itute has become extensive that the Directors
contemplate erecting larger and more elegant edi
Fee for their use during tie coming summer.

TIE BEST is THE CHEAPEST adage will Ap-
ply well to the practice of medicine as TO the
purchase of merchandise. Thousands on this coast
daring the past fifteen years, have had their
sttutions rnined by refusing treatment at the
hands of frst-class physicians, simply because a
gang of humbugs styling thems Ives doctors, and
wLo are almost destitute of common sense much
moIe of medical knowledge, offer treat those who
sick for less sum than regular practitioner.
A man that would allow quack 20 administer med
cine him, is worse than idiot, r. in nine cas-
es out of ten the medicine given, instead of
ing the disease, makes the patient 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
h has strong pronfs that the doctor is re. ular
graduate from some well reputed Medical College.
The number of medical humbugs in San Francisco is
perfectly enormous not more than two of the sad-
vertsed physicians have diploma. DR.. H. JOS
seyn, Resident Ply sician of the Eectropathic In
stit is of these, and is prepared at all times
to exhibit his diplomas.
