Or tub M ifcif hkroiior Last Niotrr. Tho Carnival
.Bat Masque of tno Old Mtriinorclior lout evening was
1 brilliant affair, the number ol persons present
bninar Tory largo.
There were but tew decoration. The pillars
Ol the pai-quctto circle and balcony wore adorned
with the hat, masques, and lettered card of
the Alphabetic Hand, which attracted so muoh
attention al the ba 1 of the Vouna- llannerchor lust
week.
Thonurtaln wan not raised until half-past 9 o'clock'
when the procession moved around the stage slowly,
amidst tho applause ol the vast audience presont fn
the auditonnm. Tho principal feature of tho car
nival , was a miniature man-of-war, drawn by ton
tailors. This was magnificently adorned by flairs
festooned. In the centre a pedestal asconded up
wards some twonty fid, upon the top of which stood
beautiful younir Teutoness, arrayed as the Goddess
Of Liberty. Above, a star formed of gas Jots burned
brilliantly, lleneath h-r, on a sub-podestal, four
yoiiiic ladies, drowsed in admirable taste, stood'
rprovrntin? Sprlni, Hummer, Fall, and Winter. On
the dick of tho boat, sailors, soldiers, and quaker
guns were placed m relief, this thuraptial car was
preceded by tho carnival band, in (ull enstumo, and
the Committee of Arrangements dressed as kuighU
In blue and silver.
The l'nnco Carnival followed in an antique
ehanot, drawn by a cat, bear, rooster, and monkey.
This was followed by a gentleman continued as tho
Pope, with a horitoly.dresscd Satan on one arm,
and old Father Tioao, wita his scythe and hour-gla-is,
This "star combination" created a great
amount of surprise and morrimcnt. Following
lifty-two members of the Voun M-rnnerchor
arrayed as a pack of gicantlc plnyiuircards, and
following them tho whole army of masquoradcrs,
upwards of eietit hundred in all.
After tho process on had been reviewed twice, tho
"pack of cards" came forward and dauuod Ilirg
field's '-Ace of Trumps I'otka Minuet" in excellent
style, and were too lorously applauded.
The opening grand march was trlppod through,
and the dancing commenced. The programme was
gotten up in German style waltzes predominating,
and some of tho best dancing and promonado music
we have evor beard was rendered by the mammoth
orchestra, under rrofetsors Adolph Birgfeld and
Theodore llerrmao.

means of our new discoveries have established our
selves as the most successful Medical Eleotrioiana in
this country or Europe, as the long list ot relerencen
at our office can testily.
Electrical investigation has proved that the human
body acts on the principle of the ira'ranlo battory.
Tbe brain, mucous and serous membrane 1, the akin.
tissue!1, and fluids constitute the negative and posi
tive lorces, and every action, v. hcther mental or
pliyical, Is thoresult of these antagonistic force.
Digestion, reepltation, circulation, secretion, and
excretion are dne solely to electrical influence.
There is a polar action established throughout the
nervous system which connects with every part of
the body, establishing and preserving a proper
balance of the elcctrlcalelement which constitute
health, and a disturbance of which causes disease.
There are strictly but two conditions of disease
ono of inflammation, or positive; tbe other weak,
debilitated, negative and as electricity contain
these two conditions in the action of tho positive
and negative currents, all we have to do is t
neutralize the disease aud restore proper, healthy
action..
Among tho chronic diseaos in which elcotricltr
lias been, and is daily being; by our agonoy, of th
greatest utility, a oure being; rapidly ellectod alter
