MEDICAL ADVICE.-Dr, Wm. X. Doherty's
Medical and Surgical Institute is becoming sine
ana non to the welfare OF our State and health
of our citizens; and his rapidly spreading reputa-
ton although it may excite surprise, is but the
signal of skill. and follows as the natural effect
of such cause. We are personally acquainted
with gentlemen who had suffered for years under
chronic disease and who had taken advantage OF
every available means that promised relief, but
without success, until they called upon Dr.. Do
bcrty. who in an incredibly short space of time,
has given them entire relief. 1t is gratifying to
announce this fact because the Doctor is gen
,lcman who seeks not by defamation of others.
to establish his reputation, or to rear the super
structure OF his own upon the ruin of another's
fame The Doctor conducts his Institute in snch
manner that must be gratifying TO all his pa
tens. He examines, advises and recommends
without charge, and the patient after hearing
his terms for treatment, can accept or reject at
pleasure In no case does the Doctor make a
charge unless he effects cure. This, he is able
todo. because he iee,s the confidence which long
experience has given, and no doubt the consoa.
ton which appcrtains to that confidence. Per.
sons afflicted with either acute or chronic disease
would do well TO consult the Doctor; at all events
it can do no harm, as fer consultation he asks no
Fee. nor 6O,s he in .iS on obofinny~ to his adv icn
unless the patient places himself undcr his care
His Offices are on Sacramento street, opposite the
Pacific Mail Steamship Offices. f. News,

READ 1--WE heartily recommend those of our
readers who may he suffering from disease of
long standing, or from complaints brought on
from the use of mercnry, at some former period
of our lives, to read the advertisement OF the
Elecropalhic Institute, to be found in our advcr-
tisng columns. Dr.. j. II. Jossclyn, 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 he has been retained in the position so long
DR.. Jossclyn isa 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 med
cine whatever but gives medicines in all cases
where II 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, anil enjoysa 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 fit ed up in n style
OF magnliccncc never before attempted by any
medical establishment on this coast, and the ln-
sttute is rated in San Francisco as the best in
the city.

they commenced the work Of demolition Nina

notified the Sublime Port that American proper

DR.. G. NJ. BOURNE: Dear Sir IT is with pleas
ure and satisfaction that now let you know OF
my good health. Looking back upon what
have passed through, it seems rs il had been
lifted from the grave, and think it my duty to
acknowledge to you and the world the benefit
derived from water baths. 1t was in Aug, 1864
when disease developed itsell with severe cough
] then took medicines getting worse with chils,
fevers. loss of strength, and was pronounced con
sumptlve. This set me to thinking, and finally
determined to leave my business and 30 to the
Sandwich Islands, having been informed that
could not be cured. went to San Francisco, and
while waiting for ship called on DR., Bourne
who stated that Il trip to the Islands would
probably result disastrously, and was unnecessary
as could be speedily cured at his establishments
placed myself under his strcatmcnt ard in one
week was so much improved though. could risk
returning home and do my duty as engineer on
the Central Pacific Railroad The Doctor object
ed, but thought | knew better, and returned to
duty. In about two weeks my cough returned
and kept getting worse, and contrary to Dr.
Bourncs Injunction never to take medicines a:
gain committed that folly. and soon was so COM
pletely run down that | csuld scarcely walk; SO
as IL last resort, | concluded once more 70 try the
water cure. went to San Francisco, few Of my
friends expecting me to return; in TACT thought
my return doubtful. On arriving at DR.. Bourne's
establishment, February l4th 1865, was not a.
bic to get into the bath without assistance, but in
a few days | began to recover myself again.
remained with him only six weeks, when felt
"a wiser and better man." without the aid of
medicine. | have now been at work several
weeks, and find | am gaining every day, and at
present bid fair to be stoutcr than ever before.
Persons visiting the Doctors establishment find it
just what it should be, both in the ladies and gen
tcmcns departments, and cannot say too much
in praise Of the Doctors kind attention to his pa.
tents. This letter write for the benefit of all
the afflicted, to be used as the Doctor DESIRES and
should it be the means of directing any to his care
and treatment who las they assuredy will find
relief, will be paid for my trouble.
