DR. S. W. BECKWITH’S
(FORMERLY PROF. C. H. BOLLES')
ELECTRICAL INSTITUTE,
1220' WALNUT STREET,,
YOB THE TREATMENT OF ACUTE AND
OHRONIO DISEASES.
Electrienl investigation bas proved that hntnan
body acte on the principle of the ealvanic'bitttr r. The
train, mucous and serous membranes, the sfcljMisenes,
and balds, conttliute the negative aniposlUvaforcss;
and every notion, whether niemtal or .physical, is tha
resnltof these antagonistic forces; Digestion, retplra .
lion, circulation, secretion, and excretionare due solely
to Electrical indnenca. There Is a poltr action entv
hllshed throuahont the nervous systeinryhfch c.oanaotj
wltheyery part of the bndyiestahUshing and' preserving
a proper balance of the electrical feemehtr, which Soa
stitntee health, and a disturbance of which causes dis
ease. There are strictly hut two conditioas of disease—
one of Inflammation, or posltlye- ths othor weak, debili
tated, negative; and as Electricity contains thsse’two
conditions in the action of tke. positive and negative
.currents, all we have to do is io n'eutralize" the dlteaee
sud restore proper healthy p.cUok.
We do not wlah to convey thelmpresslon that we cure
all diseases lit all conditions. We cannot core consump
tion after th, lungs are all decoyed; jet we.doaiosrt,
and-are prepared to '
diedsof eases of almost svery foim of chrualc diyoass,
prondunetfi incurable bjj the beat medlcsTAaethttaerl
of!the country; haye-hean radically otraao, ,ome of
'them in ah Incredibly short time, by ear Electrical
treatment.. Its great superiority oyer other practices In
the cure of dlßsaas is also attested in the fast that, within
the past bye years, over fourteen ihouxaM d patlebte
have been treated at this office, suffering from almost
every form and eondltion of dtsosee common to hu
manity, ana In nearly all cares a benefit or perfect sure
has been effected. Therefore, with theso FACXS to ■
prove our theory and treatment of dieses#, we are will
ing to undertake any of the following diseases, with
every lope and prospect of success, with very many
others not here enumerated:
1. Diseases of the Brain and Mrmnts System —Epl
lepsy, Shores or St. Titus* Dance, Paralysis (Hemlpls
gissna Paraplegia), Neuralgia,Hysteria, Kervonsness,
Palpitation of the Lock-jaw, etc., etc.; also,
diseseee M the Eye and Bar,
2 Organs and Tissues eonneeted vjith the Digestive
System. —Sore Throat, Dyspepsia,' Dlarrhffii, Dysen
tery, Obstinate Constipation, Hremorrhoide .or Piles,
Billons. Flatulent, and Painter’s Colic, and all affee
tionß of the Liver and Spleen.
S. Respiratory Organs.— Catarrh,Dough, InflaeMa,
Asthma (when not caused by organic- disease of the
heart!, Bronchitis, Pleurisy, Pleurodynia lor Rheuma
tism of the Chest, Consumption in the early, stages.
4. Fibrous and Muscular System.— Bheumattssfe
Gout, Lumbago, ttiff Keek,. Bpinal Carvsta)?; r Hip
Blecare, Oaheera, Tumore. f* ! i * -
.5, Urinary and Genital Organs.— fffdvel,
Sind Kidney Complaints,lmpotorcr and Seminal Weak
ness. The latter complaints never fall to yield rapidly
to this treatment.
6 Diseases Peculiar to Females —Uterine Cora
p’alntr, involyirg-s mat Position, as Prolapsus. Ante
version, Betroversion, Inflammation, Glceralion, and
various otter Affections of the Womb and Ovaries,
Painful, Suppreese'd, Ecsaty, or Profuse Msnstruation,
Laocorrhma.
* To LADIES we csn"Tecommend thls treatmeht as one
of DBVARIED SUCCESS. Almost innnm&ahle cases
'have come undertroatment at our office, who cau testify?
to this fact. Mrs. S. A, FULTON, a lady of great expa^.,
riencs and ability, has entire charge of the Ladies’
Department, and all delicacy will be need toward those
who entrust themselves to her care. In femile diseases,
as ~mentloned ; ln the shove Übl, with, others not men
. Honed, she has had a large experience, and. can con
lidontly promise the most gratifying results. ’
TO THE AFFLICTED.
The treitment Is mild and gentle, producing no shock
or nnpleaeant sensation whatever. Our professional
intercourse with the afflicted will over he characterized,;
hy perfect candor and houesiy, aud'thoss whose com* '.
plaints are incurable, or do not admit of
will be frankly told so, and not accepted for treatment. ”
It matters not what maybe yon? complaint, or how
long £ou have suffered, or how touch or what course!
of treatment yon may have been subjected to, or what
dif apyointtoenis you have experienced; If the system is
not worn out, if sufficient vitality remains for reaction,
there is a fair prospect of recovery.

SATURDAY, APEIL 29, 1865.
It is probable that, on thlß very clay, a
fortnight after the awful national calamity,
the death of Mr. Lincoln will be known in
England, the news thence to travel, by aid.
Of the electfic current, to all parts of Eu
rope, everywhere striking the mind with
alarm and awe, horror and surprise, grief
and sympathy. We have no suspicion
that even the, bitterest opponents, in Eu
rope, of Mr. Lincoln’s humane policy, at
once Christian and Constitutional, can re
joice over his' untimely loss. Of him it
might truly be said that he was “ good
without effort, great without a foe.”- It
will be felt, in the Old World as in the
Newj that, the loss of such a man is a loss.
itself. In England especially,
where the language andlaw are the same as
ourjjwn, the. shock will be great, and sym
pathy must surely follow.- The public mind
-in that country is highly impressible, and is

having-lived eighty-two years, and reigned
sixty; but his death
jeets as a matter of sifiall aecbunt. During

D%biih. ahff reigned tenyreargi
and his-deatb, in June, 1830, excited" joy
and hope father than regret and grieL The
Royal Sybarite bad latterly withdrawn him
self from public view, and there was a pro
fessional frankness in the manners .of the
sailor-brother, who succeeded him, which
charmed the popuk<Se._ The day on which
the Fourth George was buried was kept as.
„a gay and festive holiday in.,,London and
allthe large towns.; King William soon
blbgme the idol of-the multitude, and his
pqpfilarity increased when it became known
;W , a| > ;pers6nairy ini favor .of iParlia
"menfary reform. He .was—for a time. Ere
the'ink of his signature to the Reform Bill
wasdry, =he repented of Ms participation
id it, /and When he died, in midsummer,
1837,, he was scarcely lamented—the iris-'
toeracy considering that he had betrayed
theirorder, and the people believing that
‘he had lapsed ftom liberalism into toryism.
Besides, instead of -ah aged man, whose
life had exceeded the “ three score, years
and ten,” mentioned by the Psalmist, there *
was a new monarch—a young girl, Itill itt
her teens, well brought up by a careful and
judicious mother. - All the world became
involuntarily interested in this young and
exalted personage, and her reign has been
very .fortunate on the whole. Her domes
tic happiness haS been unusually great—
the unexpected’death of her husband being "
the only blow that' it received during the ,
twenty-one years of wedded life! The*-
death of Prince Albert wasagfeat shock"
•to the heart of England. The people had
come to forget that he was a fosteiguer.
They even condoned the addftionakofence
• of MI bring & Gerinan." They fathe*fWon
dered at than complained of his cold
and reservedjnanner, and his decided pro
pensity for saving money—wMcb, <by the'
way, enabled him to bequeath $5,000,000 -
to his family. They saw, with satisfac
tion, that he was an excellent husband, a
loving father, and a good citizen'. ’ Ijle bad..,
bestowed his patronage, if he did not give
Ms money, to various.projects for bettering
the moral and physical Condition of the
laboring classes,-and their gratitude wit
deep. When he died, in December, 1861,
after only a few-days illness, and was' liiple
more than forty at the time, English so
ciety, received a shock which thrilled
through its entire frame. Albert was a
good, if -not a great man, and a nation
knew it. His widow has not yet seen fit
jo pardon Providence for having removed
-him; his children need desire no'-better
than to iive as nobly as their father, to die
as much lamented.
PhUadelphla.
The grief of England on the
Prince Albert was neither so deep, heart
felt, and as that which arose when
the Princess Charlotte of Wales -died, at
Claremont, in 1817, some seventeen months"
after her marriage with Pringe Leopold—
now King of the Belgians. The hopes of
the British nation had been deeply interest
ed in that young lady, the only legitimate
child of George, Prince of "Wales, who'
was then Begent of the empire during his
father’s hopeless illness. She was eminent
ly the idol of the people, who also hated
and despised her father, one of the worst
men then upon earth. They looked for
ward, in pleased expectancy, to the time'
when she should reign over them, hoping,
from her amiable and noble character, that
she wonld eclipse'the renown of Elizabeth
as much as her virtues outnumbered those,
of the absolute daughter of the haughty
Tudor line. Her marriage was understood
to have been one purely of affection, Her
wedded life was truly happy. She gave
birth to a still-born male child, and died
hot many hours afterwards, grieving only
for the husband of het heart, whom she
left behind. The grief expressed by the
people for her death was entirely without,
any parallel in England. Her less was 31- .
most as generally and deeply lamented as
though she had been a -member of every
family In the Kingdom. Almost: every
person vent into mourning for her. The
noble stanzas in the Fourth Canto of
“ Chiide Harold” truly describe the dis
m'ay, the grief which arose when thd Prin
cess Charlotte died. _ '
Great, "too, was the shock to England
when, in the last week of- October, 1805,"'
news came that the" combined fleets of
Prance and Spain had been met, battled
with, and literally annihilated, off Tra
falgar—but that this great victory was won
with the life of Kelson, jwho commanded
the British fleet. He was only forty-seven
when he died—as he had wished to die, in
the hour of victory. In bad health, en
feebled, emaciated, having lost his right
arm and an eye in previous battles, ife em
barked for the last time, at a few hours’ no
tice. The idol of the navy, which was"’
then England’s greatest strength, the peo-"
pie dearly loved him, and truly mourned
over him. -They wept, most bitterly, as
the procession, solemn in funereal pomp,
accompanied his remains to St. Paul’s
Cathedral. The name- of Kelson }s still,
an honored household word in the lsjnd lie
loved so well, t and his stff signal, *? Eng
land expects that every, man will do his
duty,” has become a" national aphorism.
The people protested ‘ that the grants to
Kelson’s family were too scanty, compared
with his renown and deserts—yet: these
grants were $50,000 to each of his two
sisters, ah earldom to his bother, with a
grant of $30,000 a year, and $500,000 to
purchase an estate.
A few months after .Kelson’s death Mr.
Pitt, broken'hearted*ttt’the vieipry of Aus

the mercy of Kapoieon, also passed 1 away.

five fears past, he first took his seat in the
House of Commons. Prime Minister at
the early age of twenty-three, he heia that
high position, with little interruption, for
twenty years. ; His debts, amounting to
$200,000, though his official income, from
all sources, had been over $85,000 a year,
were paid by a Parliamentary vote. His
death was deplored, by his own party, as
a national calamity, but his opponents
much, nor without cause, for
having -plunged England into a long and
costly war with France, merely to restore
the Bourbons to tb@ _ thrdne. His great
rival, Fox, who succeeded him as Minister,
died in the same year, lamented chiefly by
his own friends, the Whigs. Neither-death
can be said to have greatly moved the na
tion, 1 ■ / .
Not so, the next that is to be recorded.
Mr. Spencer Pereival, second son of the
second Earl of Egmont, had been Solicitor
and Attorney-General under Pitt, and be
came Chancellor of the Exchequer, early
in 1807, not long‘after the : death of Fox.
When the Duke of Portland died, in Octo
ber; 1800, he succeeded him as Prime
Minister, still retaining the other
thereby very largely increasing his income,
by receiving double salary, but justifying
it on the plea that he had a dozen children
and no private estate. He was a man of
moderate ability', great industry, and deci
and religious liberty. As a Premier he
was more disliked than Mr. Pitt ever had
been by his bitterest opponents. Yet his
death was a great horror to all England.
One Bellingham, whose* mind had become
. disordered by real or imaginary wrongs,
shot him through 1 thg; heart, in the House
of Commons, and on that day week, ex
piated Ms crime 6n the gallows. England
was fearfully excited, and all political
parties united in horror at the tremendous
gtqll of assassination—cowardly as well as
relentless. Public sympathy justified Par
liament in making provision for the mur
dered statesman’s family. Miss Martineau,
in : her History of .England, say S' the grant
was “£50,000 for.the children; £2,000 a year
to their £2,000 per annum to
revert to the heir on the death of the
widow, to be eDjoyed by him for life ; and
£l,OOO a year for: life to the eldest son,
his coming of age. When this grant
was made, no one dreamed of the destina
tion which awaited a part of this monstrous
provirion.- In the: shortest possible time

Widow ..married again,, leaving regrets in
many minds, that no stipulation had been
..made fqr the return to the treasury, in such
an event,.of the income which had been

‘'Neatly as sudden, but wholly unattend
ed withrthe horrors of Mr. Pereival’s assas
sination, was the. accidental death of Sir
Robert peel,.in July, 1850. A fall from
his horse, three : days before, inflicted fatal
•injuries. He had done great things for the
people, and had thereby, won their grati-
.affection. Catholic Emancipa
tion, the repeal of the oppressive Corn
Laws which made bread costly, and the
reduction of Taxation, were great national
boons, and thelle were of Ms bestowing.
He not only perilled, but actually lost
office, in 1846, /by insisting that bread

Death of-JDr. Valentine Mott.
Professor Valentine Mott died on Wednesday last,
at Ws resldeneodn Gramorejr Park, Now York, at
the advanced age of eighty years. Sr. Mott was a
' native and one of the oldest inhabitants of Now
York city. He was known to the medlosl profession _
under the dignified title of tee Surgery*
In America, and decidedly occupied this foremost
rank In medicine and surgery In tha-oKy of New
if ork, if not on this continent. Hr. Mott had ob
tained an International reputation—a rare achieve
mentfpr an American professor. He was bom at
' Glen Cove, Long Island, August 20,1785; gradu
ated-at Columbia College In 1800, and then followed
up-hls studies at the London and Edinburg hospi
tals. For thirty, years, he has lectured before dif
ferent colleges In this city. ' -
Bis eklll In surgical operations was extraordinary,
having performed many of the feats deemed impos
sible, Sir Astley Copper said of him: “He hag
performed more of the great operations than any
man llviog, or that ever did live.” Dr. Mott Is the
author ed several standard works In the higher and
moro complex, branches of surgical anatomy and
physiology- From 1809 tolBl3‘he was Professor of
Surgery In Columbia College, and until 1828 held
the same chair In the College of Physicians and
Surgeons. With an interval of four years’service
In the short-lived Rutger’s Medical College, here* -
turned to the College of Physicians and Surgeons,
passing thence to the University Medical College,
of which he was a founder, as Frofessor-of Surgery
end Relative Anatomy. Of the Tatter science, Im
measurably important to surgery, he Is deolared the
author. But his brilliant reputation, says a high
authority, “is mainly due to Ms original operations
as a surgeon. As fatly as .lBjhTor. Mott plaited a
ligature-around the braoheeeephaUo trunk, or arie
tta Innominate, onlytwe Inches from the heart, for
aneurism or the right Subclavian artery,: for the

"exseeted the ehtith flghtolAvlole for malignant dis
ease of that bone, hteoSssory to apply
forty ligatures—an operation WilehDr. Mott him
self asserts to be the most daSgteous and difficult
than can beperfomeffupon thaaijfen body. The
"patient Is still living, and health.
Dr. Mott was the first to tie the primitive iliac arte
ry for aneurism. He has tied the common oarotld
fortyifix times, out for stone 160 times, and ampn.
tated nearly 1,000 Umbß. He early Introduced his
