| A GRAND SUCCRss.-During the past year, some
half dozen sbosus Medical Institutes" in San Fran
cisco have 'shanded in their checks.'' and closed
their doors. Without an exception, the establish

that knew little or nothing Of the pructice of medi
cine, and were established for the purpose Of lch
| ing money from the sick and unfortunate, For q
number Of years these fellows succeeded in swind-
ling their victims without let hindrance tut in
1860 certain well known medical practitioners de-
termined to put stop to the imposition. They ac-
cordingly established the Electropathlc Institute
6i5 Washington street, and placed it in charge of
DR.. J. H. Josselyn, q gentleman in every way COM
pets mt for the position. with instruction to warrant
| perfect cure in all cases undertaken by him, or
refund the money. They advertise largely and the
respectabihty Of the Institute was 30 well known

made manifest. Some six of the medical .sbilking''
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-
fce for their use during the coming summer.
