To the Editor of The Eccnint 'Telegraph:
The JVc.., in its insue on Frid.17, under the
liead of "Sunday Cars Debate in the Senate,"
after attempting, upon a pure technicality, to
correct the error of Speaker Hall, who stated
that "the observance of the Sabbath was part
of the common law of England and the United
States, and that such law was . local and
could not bo decided upon by citizens at a
local election," ventures to assert that the
question as to running the cars on Sunday in
this city is eutirely local; and that if a majo
rity of the votes of the citizens at an election
should be in favor of the cars running on
Sunday, "such a law" would bo "constitu
tional." We have long been under the schoolboy im
pression that the legixtatirr. power of the Stato
was vented in the Lrijin!iture, consisting of a
Senate and House of 'Representatives, whose
exclusive province is the enactment of law.
The Constitution of the State so declares, and
therefore all other pewer to enact laws must
bo excluded.
For the benefit of the Vm and its learned
juridical writers, that laws must bo passed by
the Legislature, and cannot bo by a vote at an
election, we re! r to a decision of the Supreme
Court of our State, made nearly twenty years
ago, in the case of 1'nrker vs. Commonwealth,
reported in 0' Barr's Reports, page 507. There
the Supremo Court held that "under the
Constitution of Pennsylvania, legislative
power must be exercised by the Legislature
created by that Constitution. Hence the act
of IMG, giving the citizens of certain counties
the power to decide by a vote whether the sale
of vinous and spirituous liquors shall be con
tinued within such counties, and imposing a
fine for the sale of such liquors, where a
majority of the voters had been against such
gale, is unconstitutional."
As the Legislature, according to this de
cision, cannot delegate its power to enact
laws to the people in their primary capacity,
it is not perceived, even under the enlightened
legal notions of the J 'reus, how the people at
an election can assume power to enact laws
even local in character. Coke.

Poring onrlnvest'cfttlons In the trenlment of tils-
tase In ila viirlnu forms by the agency of electricity,
we have obtained Very mauy valuiible and Blnrtllng
InclR, which, Added to the previous though limiieu
Inloriniulon possessed by other and less fortunate
operutors, place us beyond all previous knowledge of
this mysterious agent. During the courso olour prac
tice we have treated and cured, through the know
ledge thus gained, many thousands, and by means of
our new discoveries have eilabllshed onrKelves as tho
most successful Medical Electricians In this country
or Europe.
Electrical Investigation has proved that tho human
body nelson the principle of the gulvanlo battery.
The bruin, mucous and serous meiutranos, the skin
tisHiii's, and fluids, constitute the negative and posi
tive lorceB, nod every action, whether mental or phy
sical, Is the result of these antagonistic forces. Diges
tion, respiration, circulation, secretion, and excretion
are due solely to electrical Influence. There la a polar
uctiou established throughout the nervous system
w hich connects wltli every part ot the body, establish
ing and preserving a proper balance of the electrical
element which constitutes health, ami a disturbance
of w hich causes disease. There are strictly but two
conditions ot dlseuse one of Intlaniiiiutlon, or posi
tive; the other, weak, debilitated, negative and as
electricity contains tbe.e two conditions In the action
ot the positive and negative currents, all we have to
do Is to nentrnlize the disease and restore proper
healthy actli n.
Among the chronic diseases In which electricity has
been und Is dally being, by our agency, of tbe greatest
utility, a cure being rapidly effected after the fuiluro
ot all other means, are:
