Mr. Barnum's Liabilities. —The New-York
Tribune says :
In addition to the facts given in relation to
Mr. lbiriium, we have farther details. The
mortgage on Iraristan which cost about §l5O,
000, is §125,000, which is probably more than
it is worth. The mortgage on the Fast Bridge
port property is §185,000. Mr. Fred. (,'ros
well has been appointed assignee of Mr. B on
petition of the New Haven County Bank, and
Mr Landford on petition of the Farmers'
Bank of Bridgeport. The collision between
these assignees must be settled by the Courts.
Claims must be presented in sixty days. The
mortgages against Mr. Bartuim's real estate
on record in New. York are $179,000. His
couMdeutkil debts are about $lOO 000. The
collection of curiosities in the Museum is in the
possession of Messrs. Greenwood & Butler.—
The assets of the Jerome Company, set down
as worth alxiut §600.000, would uot probably
sell for over SLSM,OOO or $300,000. Mr Chaun
cy B. Jerome, the founder of the clock coin
pan v, who owned §172,000 of the stock, has
also been forced into bankruptcy by the Stam
ford Bank. He is rejiorted to have made a
voluntary assignment, the day of the meeting
of the crwlitors in New Haven.

THE ELECTRO CHEMICAL BATH,
AND
DIRECT & TO &-FRO ELECTRO MAGNETIC MACHINE.
J' AMES HARRIS. ELECTRICIAN, of Towanda, respect
fullv informs the public that he has lately procured
j from New York the celebrated Electro-Chemical Bath,
1 which has proven to be one of the mw*t important anl
| wonderful discoveries of the age, from its ability to extract
minerals from the human system.
Some eight years ago. a physician of Cincinnati disco
vered the process of extracting minerals from the body,
j by galvanism : more recently. M. Verges, of New York,
aii electro-gilder, having suffered from the introduction of
poisonous minerals into his system in the prosecution of
his art, conceived the Idea of removing them by the same
processes, he succeeded in doing so, and quickly recovered.
lit' then applied the same means to others similarly af
fected, with like results. His success exceeded his mo.-t
sanguine expectations, for uot only did these Baths remove
mineral poisons, hut cured many diseases, some of which
were the result of minerals, and some were uot.
More recent experiments have fully confirmed the sin
gular power of this Bath to draw from the system all mi
nerals that may Le lodged therein, to the great detriment
of health. Very often persons are afflicted 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 for years, taken in the
shape of calomel, lead. Ac. Ac.
The following arc some of the diseases cured hy t'ic-e
laths: Rheumatism, Paralysis, Paly, Painter's i'holic.
Chronic Ulcere, Glandular Swellings, Scrofula. Cancer,
Xeuralia in all its forms, Salt Rheum and Humors of all
kinds.
He has also K. B. Smith's newlv invented DIRECT AND
TO-AND FRO KLK< TKO.M VGNETIC M ACHINE, which
is a great iinjwoveincnt ou the Magnetic naudiinc* hereto
fore iu use. With the aid of the Hath and Machine, we
have at command all the available medical efficiency of
Electricity. The medical power of the Machine is verv
great, in "introducing medicines into the system through
the pore* of the skin- -npplvlng it directly to the parts af
fected, which gives a* in'-reuse of medicinal power over
that of taking it into the stomach, rendering it particular
ly efficacious in all local disease*.
lam now prepared to apply these Ruths, and also the
! Machines, at mv house in the south oart f the borongh
, of Towanda. or 1 will visit patients at a distance, who are
| unable by reason of disease to come to this place, at mo
j derate prices.
