TIN: SCHOOL MASTER OF OUR REPUBLIC.—
When our republic rose, Noah Webster bc
,..„ne its school-master. There had never been
ji'.rreat nation with a universal language with
out dialects. The Yorkshireman cannot now
t .,ik with a man from Cornwall. The peas
lUlt of the Liguarian Appeuincs, drives his
oats home at evening, over hills that look
down on six provinces, none of whose dialects
he can speak. Here, five thousand miles change
not the sound of a word. Around every fire
side and from every tribune, in every field of
j.,hor and every factory of toil, is heard the
.ante tongue. We owe It to Webster. He
ha< done for us mere than Alfred did for Eng
ird or Cadamus for Greece. His books have
educated three generations. Tliey are forever
multiplying his innumerable army of thinkers,
w |io will transmit his name from age to age.

THE ELECTRO CHEMICAL BATH,
AND
DIRECT & TO & FRO ELECTRO MAGNETIC MACHINE,
I AMES HARRIS, KLKCTRICIAN, of Towanda. respect
fully informs the public that he has lately procured
from New York the celebrated Electro-' hemiral liatlt,
which has proven to be one of the most 'important and
wonderful discoveries of the age. from its ability to extract
j minerals from the human system.
Some eight years ago. a physician of Cincinnati disco
vered the process of extracting minerals from tin- h-.Jy,
by galvanism : more recently. M. Verges, of New York,
an elrctro-giicier, having suffered from the introduction of
poisonous minerals into his system iu the prosecution of
i his art, conceived the idea nf'rcmoving them by the same
processes, he succeeded in doing so, and qnickly recovered.
He then applied the same means to others similarly af
fected, with like results. His success exceeded his ino-t
sanguine expectations, for not only did these Maths remove
mineral poisons, but cured many diseases, some of which
were the result of minerals, and some were not.
More recent experiments have fully continued the sin
gular power of this Il.ith to draw from the system all mi
nerals that may be lodged therein, to the great detriment
of health. Very often persons are attlicted by diseases
which are beyond the comprehension of the most skilful
physicians, and which are the effect of poisonous mine
rals accumulating in the system tor years, taken in the
shape of calomel, lead, Ac. e.
The following are some of the diseases cured by these
I baths: Rheumatism, Paralysis, Palsy, Painter's Cholic,
Chronic Ulcers, Glandular Swellings, Scrofula, Cancer,
Neuralia in all Its forms, Salt Rheum and Humors of all
I kinds.
He has also fv-R. Rmith'snewlv invented IHRECT AND
I TO-AXD FRO ELBCTItO M AGNETIC MACHINE, which
| is a great improvement on the Maguetic machines hereto
fore in use. With the aid of the Rath and Machine, we
have at command all the available medical efficiency of
Electricity. The medical power of the Machine i verv
great, in introducing medicines iuto the system through
! the |ore.s of the skin—applying it directly to the parts af-
I fected, which gives an increase of medicinal power over
that of taking it into the stomach, rendering it particular
i ly efficacious in all local disex-es.
I am now prepared to apply these Baths, and also the
: Machines, at inv house iu the south part of the ls>rongli
of Towanda, or 1 will visit patitnta at a distance, who are
unable by reason of disease to come to this place, at mo
derate prices.
I lam also sole agent for Mradford county, for the above
Machines. JAIfES HARRIS.
