When Hamlet was made 10 say to Horaro,
"there are more things in heaven and earth
than are dreamt of in your philosophy
Shakespeare revealed the vast comprehen-
siveness of mind and that great insight into
the secrets of nature which characterized all
his works. Whose but the fertile brain Of
SHAKESPEARE could conceive of the prophetic
thought, 81 can put girdle around the
earth in forty minutes?' How little we COM
prehend the infinite uses of nature. The sug
gestion of an Atlantic cable, in the infancy Of
the present generation, would have been
thought too Elusive for lunatic. But there
are yet wonderful secrets still remaining un-
discovered. Little, comparatively, is known
of the subtle element which we breathe. We
often make the common expression eight as
air." while in fact it is rery heary. Every
square foot of air which surrounds us weighs
2l60 pounds, and makes a pressure upon the
surface Of large sized man of nearly twenty
tons. This weight, however, is prevented
from crushing the human frame by balanc-
ing force in the element, in the property of
pressing equally in all directions. The air
which is in the body presses outwardly with
precisely the same force as the external cir
presses inward, and the body thereby remains
uniniured These laws have afforded the in
PRODUCTION of a new curative agency which
has already become quite popular wherever
used, and is being adopted by the medical
faculty. A patient is seated in an alright
receiver, easily adjusted around him, made to
enclose the whole body except the face, and
with the aid of an air pump part of the at
mospheric pressure is removed, causing the
air in every cell and inters tice of the body to
press forward to fill the vacuum created, and
with it the blood and neroo-vital fluid of the
system, thereby equalizing and invigorating
the blood, removing internal congestion
and obstruction, and carrying off the
waste matter from the body and giving new
matter to every part of it, In addition to the
large receiver there are smaller receivers for
enclosing any part of the body. DIR Hadfeld
of Cincinnati is the inventor of this curative
agency, for which he is entitled to the thanks
of the afflicted
We understand that this treatment will soon
be introduced into Augusta by DR.. T. c. Nor
cross and j. L. Hunt. The senior of the
firm is well known in this vicinity as a skill
full physician. See advertisement in another
column.
