A GRAND STCCESs.-During the past year, some
half dozen bogus Medical Institutes in 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 or nothing of the pructice of medi
cine, and were established for the purpose of tlch-
| ing mOEey from the sick and unfortunate. For
number of years these fellows succeeded in swind-
ling their victims without let or h ndrance, tut in
1860 certain well known medical practitioners de-
termined to put stop to the imposition. They
cordingy established the Electropathc Institute'
6i5 Washington street, and placed it in charge of
DR.. J. II. Josselyn, a gentleman in every way

respcctabhty of the Institute was SO well known
that the sick locked to the office for advice and
treatment in arms. The effect has begun to be
made manifest Some six of the medic j .'bilking"
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 elegant edi-
ice for their use during T. c coming summer.
