THE ELECTRO CHEMICAL BATH,.
DIRECT 8t TO-& FRO ELECTRO MAGNETIC MACHINE.
JAMES H ARRIS, Ei.kctrician, of Towanda. respect
fully informs the pnMir that he has lately procured
from New York the celebrated Electro-Chemical Batli,
which has proven to lie one of the most important and
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 lxnlv,
by galvanism ; more recently, M. Verges, of New York,
an electro-gilder, having suffered from the introduction of
poisonous minerals into his system in the prosecution of
Lis art, conceived the idea of removing them by the same
processes, lie succeeded in doing so, and quickly recovered.
He then applied the same means to others similarly af
fected, with like results. His success exceeded his roust
sanguine expectations, for not only did these Baths remove
mineral poisons, but cured many diseases, some of which
were the result of minerals, and some were not.
More recent experiments have fully confirmed the sin
gular power of this Bath to draw from the system ail mi
nerals that may be lodged therein, to Hie 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 are some of tiie diseases cured by these
batlis: Rheumatism, Paralysis, Pul-y, Painter's Oholic.
Chronic Ulcers. Glandular Swellings, Scrofula, Cancer,
Neuralia, iu all its forms, Salt Rheum and Humors of all
kinds.
He ha* also S.B.Smith's newly invented DIRECT AND
TO-AND FRO ELECTROM AGNETIC MACHINE, withffi
is a great improvement on the Magnetic machines hereto
fore -n use. With the aid of tiie Bath and Machine, we
have at command all the available medical efficicucy of
Electricity. The medical |mwer of the Machine is very
great, in introducing medicines into the system through
the pores of the skin—applying it directly t<> the parts af
fected. which gives an increase of medicinal power over
that of taking it into the stomach, rendering it particular
ly efficacious in all local diseases.
I am now prepared to apply these Batlis. and also the
Machines, at my house in the"south part of the borough
of Towanda, or 1 will visit patients at a distance, who are
unable by reason of disease to come to this place, at mo
derate prices.
I am also sole agent for Bradford county, for the above
Machines. JAMES HARRIS.

THE TRIBUNE FOR 1857.
•
The KlfH tinn . aud it- result-- proves that the
wi.rk devolved . the Republican party is not yet emu
pit ted. In -.ill the Eastern and Northern portions <f the
country—in New-Rhtrlnnd. New Y"rk.OHh> and the North-
UY-1- the Republican banner Boats in triumph : while iri
K cithern .Tcr-ey. Pennsylvania. Indiana and Illinois—in
short. wherever few newspapota are taken, and where
common school- arc too new and too feeble to have edu
oted the pro-eat generation of voters—the Mack Hair of
Sl iverv obstruct-the sunshine. A -trunrjor to America
miuht distinguish those portions of onr country most
t.le--ed with Education, Intelligence. Thrift and Virtue,
'■ v scaitninT the returns of the Presidential ronte-t of 1 hah.
We have failed of present success, not because the Peo
ple are against u-. but because that large portion who did
not hoar or read the argument and do not know what
were the red o e-tions at i-sne. went :ilm->-t solid against
>=. reversing the verdi.-t which the great majority of the
educated and intellft'ent endeavored to pronounce.
These facts indicate the path of pressing duty. With
no unmanly roomings over what i* irrevocable—with no
abatement of heart or hope la-cause the triumph of I.itier
tv in her new ordeal is not won at the T/mg Island an<i
White Plains of her struggle—with no shadow of regret
that the responsibility of governing is not confided to her
champions t>efore the People were fnllv ready to sustain
them—we iepin afresh the work of diffusing that vital
truth which, in regard to the concert a of this world as
well as of the next, makes Free indeed. Now, in the
Slave Power's heyday of victory, when its ministers and
servitors are gathering and plotting to make the most of
their triumph and-" crush out" the spirit which they vain
tv believe to he crucified and entombed—now. when the
limit-hearted or cold-hearted who lately basked in the
sunshine of onr premature hopes are hauliug off to repair
damages and talking of abandoning the rugged arena of
Polities for more quiel mid flowery fields—now. in this
hour of weariness mid shadow, Thk Timbink renews its
vows of eternal hostility to every form ot tyranny over
the bodies or souls of men—to tiie shameful assumption
that the tienighted and teehle, whether in soul or body,
are to be regarded and treated as the convenience or the
prey of their wiser or stronger brethren—to the domina
tion of despots and oligarchs, whether of empires or plan
tations—to the enslavers of cities and kingdoms in Europe
or tiie breeders of children for the auction-block and the
cotton-field in Virginia or Alabama.
The doctrine that no human lieing was ever created for
tin- benefit or advantage of another—that all service be
tween man and man should be free and reciprocal—that
the laborer should not toil and sweat to pamper others'
pride or minister to others' luxury.but for tin- sustenance
and comfort of tho-e near and dear to bini—is destined to
certain triumph. It must prevail, for God reigns, nnd
Kurth was not-created to lie a theatre of injustice, oppres
sion and misery for ever, ft mwt triumph : for all true
prophecy affirms and the vindication of the Ilivine lienig
uity imperatively requires it. It mu f triumph : for De
mocratic America cannot-always remain the scoff of aris
tocrats and the shame of reformers and liberals through
oat the Old World. It must triumph : for Man's history
is not a chaos or a riddle, but everywhere instinct with
meaning : and no heroic effort ever failed of its effect—no
drop of martyr blood was ever shed in vain.
Bat even if we Republicans were disposed to fold onr
arms in slumber onr adversaries would not permit it. They
are busy to-duv in lengthening their cords and strength
ening their stakes with a vigilance and activity which re
veals a consciousness on their part that their dominion
must be made sure forthwith or their sceptre will have
forever departed. To day. invrmidoms of the Slave Pow
er threaten ami harass Northern Mexico, are encamped
in the heart of Central America and waging a war of ex
termination on the distracted inhabitants of its ;ietty Re
publics, while it by turns leers and scowls at Cuba, while
its nmst ruthless bands are precipitated on devoted Kan
sas, under the protection and smiles of the- Federal Ad
ministration. Kven ;ts we write, the telegraph informs
us that twenty Free-State men, guilty of attempting to
defend their homes against the rapine and violence of Bn
ford's and Titus' blood-thirsty bandits, have been convic
ted by l.ecompte's Court of manslaughter! and sentenced
to live years' imprisonment at hard lalmr as felons. This
is but a fair specimen of what has long passed for "'jus
tice'' in Kansas—a justice which takes the criminals into
pay and aids them in hunting down, plundering and
" wiping out" the innocent, whom it consigns to the
State prison if they arc ever goaded into the madness of
resisting their oppressors. Such crimes and wrongs as
unhappy Kansas has for twelve months endured, even
Hungary or Poland has never known ; and the Power at
whose instigation these villainies were and are perpetra
ted sits enthroned in the White House, and has just
achieved another four years" ascendancy in the Federal
Crovernment. Who, in view of these facts, can say that
Republicans may now pile their arms, even for an hour ?
Tuk Tiiibcnk will be, as it has been, a Political Jour
nal—avowedly, though not exclusively so. It recognizes
the truth that Freedom and Slavery are here grappled in
deadly conflict, and that in the result one of them must
lose all control over the Federal Government. But. while
it gives prominence and emphasis to the discussion and
elucidation of the great issue of the day, it sinks none of
the characteristics of a Business mid family Newsp#|ier.
The proceedings of Congress, like those in" Kansas, will
Is- watched and reported by an able and fearless corps of
Correspondents, while from London. Paris. Constantino
ple. Havana, San Francisco, Albany and other centres o!
interest, our special advices will he, as they have lieen,
fresh and reliable. A member of onr Editorial corps—
Bayard Taylor—is now in Northern Rtmqie. and will
spend the Winter in Sweden, Lapland. Russia, thence
making his way next season across Kilieria and Tartary
to the month of the Amour, and thence homeward by the
Pacific and California, unless some change of route shall
promise greater interest and profit to our readers, for
whom alone he will write regularly throughout his adven
turous journey, which is likely to require two years for
its completion. Our reports of the most interesting Lec
ture-. Public Meetings. Ac., will lie full and reliable, and
our Foreign and Domestic News made up with a careful
regard to the condensation into our ample columns of the
greatest amount of intelligence that is consistent with
the use of type of a generons size. In short, if we fail to
i make Thk Tkibi nk worth its cost, it shall not be for want
of expenditure or effort.
If it be deemed desirable by Republicans that Thk Tki
bi xk should tie circulated in their several localities, we
urge them to see that Clubs be made up and forwarded
iu due season. The Postmasters are send-officially ad
monished not to aid our circulation, but to urge instead
that of journals deemed " sound" and " National'' by the
compatriots of Atchison and Striugfellow. We aslt live
Republicans everywhere to take care that these efforts be
not effectual to quench the light of Freedom in the mur
ky mists of Slavery.
