Irregularities especially, DR.. Josselyn has gained

SUCCESS THE TRUE STANDARD OF MERIT.-If there
is any truth in the above 'old adage, then it will
apply the Eectrnpathic Institute of San Francis
co. This establishment was opened to the public
about six years since, under the management oil
DR.. j. II. Josselyn, who has during that time treat
ed upwards of twenty thousand cases of disease to
successful issue, with the exception of very
overdosed with poisonous drugs by some ofthe nu-
merous quacks with which this State abounds. Du-
ring the above time the Resident Physician, Dr. ]
H. Josselyn, 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 a man
to all appearances of very delicate constitution,
but his scientific attanme nts are such as to enable
him to determine the nature Of the disease with
which the applican&may be afflicted; almost in
stantly, and to prescribe such treatment as will
produce a speedy and permanent cure The mode
of treatment at this institute peculiar poison
Gus drugs whatever are given under any circum-
stances, and in numerous instances the sick per
manently cured without the of particle oil
medicine of any kind. Persons requiring physic
iau on whom they caE rely, will do well to read tn
advertisement of the Electropathic Institute else
where in our columns.

From the Contra Costa Gazette, JAN Is, 1866,
GRAND SuccRss.-During the past year, some
half dozen ''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 pructice Of med
cine, and we're established for the purpose of fitch
ing money from the sick and unfortunate, For
number of years these fellows succeeded in swind-
ling their victims without let or hndrance, but il
| 1860 certain well known medical practitioners de
termined to put stop to the imposition. They &C
cordingy established the s'Eectropathlc Institute
at 6i5 Washington street, and placed it in charge
DR.. ]. II. Jossclyn, gentleman in every way com
pet mt for the position, with instruction to warrant
perfect cure in all cases undertaken BY him, o,
refund the money. They advertise largely, and the
responsibility of the Institute was SO well known
that the sick hocked to the office for advice ant
treatment in swarms. The effect has begun to b,
made manifest. Some six of the medical ssbilking'
establishments have closed their doors, and severa
more will 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 use during tue coming summer.

permanent injury to the system, and oftentimes t
such extent to prevent the possibility of eur

The number of medical humbugs in San Francisco i
perfectly enormous not more than two of the ad
