ELRCTRoPATHY.-The readers of this article are

street, San Francisco to be found in another col
of this paper. The remarkable cures that
have been effected by DR.. j. H. Josselyn, the Resi-
dent Physician of the Institute during the past six
years, has game for this establishment a reputa-
ton that has never been equalled by any medical
establishment this coast. In of female ir-
Irregularities especially, DR.. Josseyn has gained an
envable reputation, and the spacious parlors of the
Institute continually occupied by ladies seeking
relief from their troubles.
DR.. Josselyn pays particular attention to the
treatment of 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 fictitious ad-
dress, sends per Wells. Fargo Co., medicines

is any truth in the above sold adage, then it will
apply to the Eectropathic Institute of San Francis
CO. This establishment opened to the public
about six years since. under the management of
DR.. j. H. Josselyn, who has during that time treat
ed upwards of twenty thousand cases of disease to
q
small number, who were too far gone, having been
overdosed with poisonous drugs by some of the nu-
merous quacks with which this State abounds. Du-
ring the above time the Resident Physician, DR.. J.
H. Josselyn, has received and replied to not less
than six thousand five hundred letters, besides
giving his personal attention to all the patients

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 such 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 will
produce speedy and permanent cure The mode
of treatment at this institute is peculiar poison

A GRAND 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 exception. 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 fitch
ing money from the sick and unfortunate, For a
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 &C
cordingly established the sElectropahc Institute
at 6l5 street, and placed it in charge of
DR.. j. H. Josselyn, gentleman in every way COM
pets mt for the position with instruction to
perfect cure in all cases undertaken by him, or
refund the money. They advertise largely, and the
respectabll1ty CT the Institute so well known
that the sick focked to the office for advice and
treatment in swarms. The effect has begun to be
made manifest Some six of the medical ssbilking''
establishments have closed their DOORS and several
more will shortly follow. The business of the In
sttute has become SO extensive that the Directors
contemplate erecting larger and elegant edi-
flee for their use during the coming summer.

THE BEST is THE CHEAPEST This adage will ap-
ply as well to the practice of medicine as to the
purchase of merchandise. Thousands on this coast
during the past fifteen years, have had their con-
situations rnined by refusing treatment at the
hands of frst-class physicians, simply because a
gang of humbugs styling themselves doctors, and
who almost destitute of common sense, much
of medical knowledge, offer treat those who
are sick for less sum than regular practitioner
A man that would allow quack 20 administer med
cine to him. is than idiot, for, in nine cas-
out of ten, the medicine given, instead of cur
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 that no
should place himself in charge of ply stefan unless
h has strong pronfs that the doctor is a regular
graduate from some well reputed Medical College.
The number of medical humbugs in San Francisco is
perfectly enormous not more than two of the ad
vertised physicians have diploma. DR.. ] H. Jos
