ELEcTRorATHY.-The readers this article are
of the ssElectropathc Institute,'' 6i5 Washington
street, San Francisco, to be found in another col
umn of this paper. The remaEkable cures that
have been effected by Dr. J. II. Josseyp, the Resi-
dent Physician of the Institute during the past six
years. has gained for this establishment reputa-
tion that has never been equalled by any medical
establishment this coast. In cases of female ir
regularities especially, Dr. JosSelyn has gained
envable reputation and the spacious parlors of the
Institute continually occupied by ladies seeking
relief from their troubles. -rl.4..
DIR. 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 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 lie uses no mercu-
ry mineral poisons. The remedies used are
known as s'Electric, :" and most of them of his
own discovery. Persons placing the mselves under
the treatment of DR.. J. II. Josselyn may rely upon
not only receiving correct and successful treatment
but upon his discretion and secrecy.

SUCCESS THE TRUE STANDARD or MERIT.-If there
is any truth in the above ssod adage then it will
CO. This establishment was opened to the public
about six years since, under the management of
DR.. J. III. Josseyn, who has during that time treat
ed upwards of twenty thousand cases of disease to
a successful issue, with the exception of very
small number, who were too far gone, having been
overdosed with poisonous drugs by some the nu
merous quacks with which this State abounds. Du
ring the above time the Resident Physician, DIR. J.
II. Josseyn, 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 man
to all appearances of very delicate constitution,
but his scientific attainme nts are 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 as will
produce speedy and permanent cure The mode
of treatment at this institute is peculiar no poison
ous drugs whatever are given under any circum-
stances and in numerous inst tances the sick per-
mai emily cured without the use of one particle of
medicine of any kind. Persons requiring aphysic-
iau whom they car rely, will do well to read the
advertisement Of the ElectrOpathic Institute, else

READ lT.-We heartily recommend those of our
readers who may be suffering from disease of long
standing, from complaints brought on by the
mercury at some former period of their lives to read
the advertisement Of the Electropathc Institute to
be found in our advertising coluEins. DR.. J. H.
Josselyn, the resident Physician, has occupied that
position for six years, and taking into consideration
the fact that all the Directors Of the Institute are
medical men Of high standing in the community, it
may be considered proof of DIR. Josselyn's ability
that he has been retained in the position long
DR.. Josselyn is regular graduate, and is also
sidered by competent judges to lie the most scien-
tc and successful electrician in the United States
he will cure more than half the diseases that flesh
is heir to without the of any medicine whatev-
but gives medicine in all where it is deem
ed necessary, but anything but vegetable
preparations. The doctor has been very successful
in his treatment of diseases incident to females and
enjoys much larger practice in that particular
line than any other physician on the Pacific coast
The Electropathc Institute is located one Of the
most popular streets in San Francisco, the rooms
for the reception of patients fitted up in style
of magnificence never before attempted by any med
cal establishment this coast, and the Institute
is rated in San Francisco the best in the city.
From the Contra Costa Gazette, Jan. Is, 1861
AGRAND SUccRss.-During the past year, some
half dozen s'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 or nothing of the pructce of medi
cine, and were established for the purpose 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-
coringly established the "Electropathic Institute''
at 6i5 Washington street, and placed it in charge of
DIR. J. II. Josselyn, gentleman in every way COM
pet mt for the position with instruction warrant
perfect cure in all cases undertaken by him, or
refund the money. They advertise largely, and the
respectability Of the Institute was SO well known
that the sick hocked to the office for advice and
treatment in swarms. The effect has begun to be
made manifest Some six of the medical tsbilking'i
establishments have closed their doors, and several
more ill shortly follow. The business of the In
stitute has become SO extensive that the Directors
contemplate erecting larger and more elegant edi-
fee for their during tue coming summer.

THE BEST is THE GREATEST This adage will ap-
ply as we'll to the practice Of medicine to 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-olass physicians, simply because a
gang of humbugs styling themselves doctors, and
who are almost destitute of common sense, much
more Of medical knowledge offer to treat those who
are sick for less sum than regular practitioner.
A man that would allow quack 20 administer med
icRe to him. is worse than an idiot for, in nine
of ten, the medinine given, ad of
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 hysician unless
e has strong pronfs that the doctor is regular
graduate from some we'll reputed Medical College.
The number of medical humbugs in San Francisco is
perfectly enormous not more than two of the ad-
vertiscd physicians have diploma. DR.. ] Il. Jos
selyn, Resident Physician Of the ElectrOpathis In
