GRAND SCCCEss.-During the past wear, some
half dozen sbogus Medical Institutes in San Fran
cisco have ''handed in their checks,'' and closed
their DOORS Without an except 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 ch-
ing money from the sick and unfortunate. For
number OF years these fellows succeeded in swind-
ling their victims without let or .ndrance tut in
1860 certain well known medical practitioners de-
termined to put stop to the imposition. They ac-
cordingy established the Electropathlc nstitute'
at 6i5 Washington street. and placed it in charge of
Dir. j. II. Josseiyn, gentleman in every way COM
pet for the position, with instruction to warrant
perfect cure in all cases undertaken by him,
refund the money. They advertise largely and the
that the sick focked to the office for advice and
treatment in swarms. The effect has begun to lie
made manifest. Some six of the medic i sbilking''
establishments have closed their DOORS and several
more will shortly follow. The business of the In
stltute has become so extensive that the Directors
contemplate erecting larger and elegant edi-
hce for their use during tie coming summer.
