Yesterday morning at II o'clock, a meeting of the members of the Corn Exchange Association was held at their hall, southwest corner of Second and Gold streets, to adopt measures to raise funds for the relief of the destitute and suffering poor of Lan cashire and other English manufacturing districts. The meeting Isms well attended, although gotten up at almost a moment's notice. During the progress of the meeting, the sum of fourteen thousand dollars was subscribed towards this worthy object, and, judging from the spirit manifested yesterday, the sum will reach an enormous figure. The New York merchants have made a similar move, but it is con fidently believed Clint the Philadelphians will fiave a vessel well stor ed with grain, provisions, &e., and on its way to England, be fore that of the former city is ready - to sail. ' • • The meeting yesterday was organized by calling to the chair C. J. Hoffman, Esq., president of the asso ciation, who stated the object for which they had convened. Mr. A. G. Cattell then took the floor, and spoke as follows: • GENTLEMEN: I have been induced to appear hero to-day in accordance with the wishes of sonic friends, whose wishes to me arc always law, to present to 'you ‘a preamble anti resolutions in which we are all deeply interested. It is well known to all of you that there is a large class of operatives in the Eng lish isle who are at presentin the greatest destitu tion and want. The mere knowledge of this fact is 'enough to induce any benevolent man or set of men to conic to their rescue. In the disposition of our charities it matters not to us to inquire of what na tion, of what color, or of what clime. The fact of their destitution and want is enough. We all know the cause of this distress—the absence of that great staple which is the chief supply of England's extensive manufacturing interests—a distress which has been heightened by the deficiency of the harvest. I know that, in my appeals for this suffering people, I will be met by the objections that we have enough to do at home—that our people and our purses are taxed to the utmost to support the Government. I will not ignore these facts ; neither will I ignore the fact that we have to support 100,000 sick and wounded soldiers of an army of unprotected women and children. 'But amidst all these dark and blackened clouds which overhang our horizon, there is great cause for thankfulness. I know that we have ability and disposition to assist the needy. To my mind there is something grand, nay sublime, in the idea,, that, although we are en • • e enereee of 0/0-'5.0705 - ittitt"fekildesla times, and taxed to the utmost in the defence of ourGfivern=t silent and its institutions, while thecantinent shakes beneath the tread of an army of a million of citizen '; Soldiers, and the echo of cannon reverberates along . All our valleys and upon our mountain tops; above all this the wail of woe, that comes to us across the Atlantic, finds a welcome lodgment in our enrs and a generous response from our hearts. 1 am aware that in presenting the preamble and resolution I shall be met by another objection ; that the Government of England is against us, that she is not what she should be. I am not here either to denounce or to defend her. The people, the laboring classes of Great Britain, understand us and suffer quietly, because they know that we labor for free institutions, I ain satisfied that whatever may have been the disposition of the Government of Great Britain towards us in this hour of our National peril, it has been held beck from any decided acts of hostility towards us by the disposition of the class to whom we desire to extend this relief. Aside from all collateral issues, Mr. President, benevolence alone demands from us liberal action. When we meet our bitterest enemy, or even any little child in the street downcast, oppressed, and pleading for re lief, a single question of humanity arises in our heart to feed the hungry and clothe the naked : "If thine enemy hunger, give him food; if he thirst, give him think, for in eo doing thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head." The following preamble and resolutions were then offered, and unanimously agreed to : inereas, Information has reached this community that great destitution and suffering exists among the operators in the large manufacturing districts of Great Britain, especially in the great cotton manu facturing district of Ennearshire ; and Whereas, It is manifest that their sufferings are the result, in part, at least, of the wicked and cause less rebellion that aims to overthrow our Govern ment, and pursues its work of destruction, regardless of who are the sufferers; and Whereas, Amidst all the manifold evils which this wide-spread rebellion has entailed upon our country, we recognize with grateful hearts the goodness of Almighty God in blessing us with abundant harvests, so that our broad prairies and fertile valleys have yielded us "food enough and to spare ;" rind • Whereas, It is no less a dictate of humanity titan a pffsitive Christian obligation to give from our abun dance to " those who arc ready to perish:" There fore, be it Resolved, Thnt this association have learned with deep regret of the suffering and• want which exist among the operatives in the manufacturing districts of Great Britain, anti that we will, as individual members, join with the citizens of Philadelphia and others in contributing to the necessities of our brethren across the Atlantic. Resolved, That a ;committee of members of this body be appointed by the chair, to unite with a like number of citizens, to be appointed in such manner as shall seem best, who shall proceed at once to ob tain subscriptions in money or food, the former to be invested in brendstuffs, and forwarded promptly, for distribution among needy operatives in Lancashire. Mr. Cattell also said : In connection with this subject I will state that a Prominent icon merchant called upon um this morn ing and said that he understood that the Corn Ex change Association, which he thought a live mer cantile orgenization, l was to have a meeting on this subject, he would give him a text to talk from. • The speaker then read the following: We, the undersigned, hereby agree to contribute the sums 'set opposite to our respective names for the purpose of sending a ship load of provisions to the &offering . operatives in England—the shipment and distribution to be made in such manner as may be .agreed upon by the contributors to this FREE FOOD Jor:ND: Asa Whitney & Son • $l,OOO M. W. Baldwin &'CoI,OOO IVm. Sellers &Co . . 1,000 Morris, Wheeler, & Co • •• 1,000 Morris, Tasker, & 1,000 Merrick &Sons 1,000 Mr. Cattell also stated that the members of the Corn Exchange had come manfully up to the work, as would be manifest from the following list of subscriptions made during the first half of the meet ing: Henry Cope $l,OOO Alfred Slope 1,000 Cope Brothers 1,000 Thos. Richardson & Co 1,000 Peter Wright & Son 1,000 Alexander G. Cattell & Co 1,000 Jacob T. Alburger 1,000 :Ed. A. Souder & Co 1,000 Mr. Geo. L. Buzby took the floor to second the resolutions, but he was exceedingly pleased to find that this was unnecessary, since the members of the Cori Exchange had already shown how they met their approbation. It may be said by some that charity begins at home, anti he was extremely proud anti happy to say that the Corn Exchange had al ready verified this maxim, and that they now pro posed that charity shoulthiaot end at home. It is the nature of a liberal man that his mind shall go over the whole world. It is a question of want and sup ply with the merchant the world over. It is further said that the English have been our enemies, and that by their acts ?hey have assisted to protract the war, and that it is not our business to assist our enemies. But the speaker had yet to learn that we Should not do good to our enemies. When the war is over it will he well that some pleasant recollec tion should be left behind. Certainly it is becoming that at this time we should do a deed which will shine over the whole civilized world. Besides, these people of Lancashire are net our enemies—they have shown from the start they are our friends. These poor people, upon whom the whole burden of this war has fallen, are our friends, and this act of chari ty will benefit our country greatly. Nothing can better develop emigration than an act of beneficence of this kind—that in the very hour of our trial and struggles we are able to assist others. These pea ple will come to our land and supply the vacuum by so many of our people who have fallen in the war. In conclusion, the speaker said that it was not expected that the Corn Exchange should bear the whole of this Matter themselves, but they should be the fleet to take the initiatory steps. Let us open the ball, and our patriotic and charitable citizens will keep it rolling on. • Mr. Thomas Kimber, Jr., said that he did not pro pose to add anything to what had been already so well said in recommendation of this movement; but begged leave to submit the following statement of the actual condition of things at this moment in Great Britain, which he had carefully prepared from the latest statistics published in the English papers: 'rotn i population dependent on the cotton manu facture in Great Britain is about 4,000,000. There are about 200,000 operatives thrown out of employ ment, and 150,000 now on short time, and soon to be turned adrift. These, with their families, and all dependent upon them—artisans, mechanics, tradespeople, and store keepers—are now suffering the actual horrors of des titution and famine. Ashton and Staleybridge districts, about 40,000 operatives now idle; 25,000 soon to be so, and now on short time. Operatives now entirely idle : Blackburn, about 17,600; Manchester, 11,0003 . Oidham, 11,000 ; Preston, 20,000: Rochdale, 20,000; Stockport, 20,000; \Vegan, 10,000; Berry, 15,030, and a proportionate number on short time and daily expecting, in many cases, a complete discharge. In coneltision, he expressed the conviction that the - transmission of our charities, in the form that had been suggested, (it cargo of flour and bread- Was by far the wisest and most acceptable course that could have been decided on. There was it fitness in sending the very articles most needed there and most abundant here, as well as most easily distributed among those for whom the relief was in tended. Archibald Getty, Eeq., was the last speaker.' He had just arrived from New York, and was asked by Some of the merchants there what our Corn Exchange was doing in this matter, but was not able to give a very satisfactory reply. He was glad the matter had assumed the shape it had, and he hoped they would not cease until the subscriptions reached one hundred thousand dollars, which would, in hie opinion, be a proper response of the citizens of Phi indelphin. The:preamble and resolutions were then unani mously adopted, after which the chair announced the following as the committee called for: A. G. (Juliet!, George L. Buzby, Francis Cope, James A. Wright, E. G. James, Charles Knecht, A, Getty, W. G. Bolton, George•A. McKinstry, Joseph 11'. Slitter, John Gibson. The meeting then adjourned. ANOTHER MEETI-NO.

The following resolutions were, on motion of A. E. Bolin, Esq., seconded by Mr. John Welsh, unani niously adopted : Resolved, That the existence of sore and wide spread distress in the manufacturing districts of • Grea t Britain constitutes an imperative demand upon 'the charities'of the humane throughout the world. .

MMI THE LAUNCHING OF TUB SHENANDOAH. —The launching of the United States steam . sloop of-war Shenandoah (propeller) took place, 'at the navy yard, yesterday afternoon, at three o'olock. The occasion was jubilant In the extreme, for though 1 the celebration of the event was kept rather private from outsiders generally, yet quite a respectable crowd, in quality as well as quantity, congregated . itself upon the decks of the Shenandoah and along the gangway. The Monongahela wag crowded with gazers, and the Princeton was a jam, filled every mo ment, as she was, with boat-fulls from the south wharf. The winds which haveprevailed for the last day or so have blown the water from the river, and a very low tide has teen the result. At one o'clock yesterday morning, consequently, it was uncertain whether the launch would take place. The launoh, however, did take place. At ten minutes to three the influx of visitors diminished. At thr,e, all was comparative quietude and expectation, and the labor of launching commenced. The keel-blocking was removed from under the keel, and the sawing-off of the ways completed. Though 'slower in the com mencement of her sloping slide than she would pro bably have been in milder weather, yct the Shenan doah glided most gracefully, and was christened amid the huzzas and the waving of hats and hand kerchiefs of the multitudinous groups, The baptism was performed by Miss Selina Pascoe. As the ship touched the water, the bottle, tastefully tied in silk ribbons of the national hue, was broken over the bow, and the ceremony of baptism performed by the pronunciation of the name Shenandoah. This was very pleasingly performed by Miss Pascoe, amid the cheers of the spectators. The view from the Prince.. ton was very fine, inasmuch as the whole scope of, the scene was swept overiat a glance. Amongthe spectators of the launch, on the platform directly . 1 under the bow of the Shenandoah, we noties Captain Williams, the whaleman-lecturer, ;WhO appeared delighted with the process. The slope of the track was about seven-eighths of an inch to the foot. The soapy excrescences it displayed imme diately after the launching were objects of admira tion to novitiates in launching lookings-on. The launch occurred at precisely three minutes past three, and went off as smoothly and beautifully as could have been desired. The length of the Shenan doah between the perpendiculars is two hundred and twenty-live feet; the beam extreme is thirty-eight feet four inches ; the depth of the hold seventeen feet half an inch ; the length over all two hundr,ed and forty-three and a half feet; the measurement in tons is thirteen hundred and seventy-eight tons. The Shenandoah is a sister ship to the iViononga lieln., and has neither bowsprit nor cut-water. The engine is designed by Isherwood, of Washington, and is of the same type as those of the Juniata and - she carries nine guns—three pivot s, 11 gunigren del was constructed mainly with regard to speed, and . possessing all the elements of it, the degree, of course, will rest somewhatwith the engineers. SARBATTI SCHOOL CONVEN'TlON.—Yester day afternoon a Convention of Sabbath-school teachers, embracing varlous,.Evangelical denomina tions, commenced in the chapel of the church in Arch street, above Tenth. The object of the Con vention was stated in the "call " to be to adopt such measures as are found to-be necessary for the com piling of necessary statistical and other information respecting the Philadelphia Sabbath-schools. Boit - . James Pollock was chosen temporary President. Committees on organization and business were ap pointed. The former reported for permanent presi dent lion. James Pollock, and for vice presidents the following delegates : Charles E. Lea, P. E. Church. Matthew Newkirk, 0. S. Presbyterian. Rev. M. D. Kurtz, M. E. Church. J. S. Cumming, N. S. Presbyterian. J. Y. Stout, Baptist. J. E. Wiest German Reformed. Rev. T. De Vitt Talmage, Reformed Dutch. Rev. John Chambers, Independent. George H. Stuart, Reformed Presbyterian. J. M. Wallace. W. P. L. Martin, P. M. mr..E zic,..Disciples of Christ. S. L. Houpt, Lutheran. In consequence of the slimness of the attendance, Mr. Getty moved that the Convention adjourn, but, after some debate, the motion was withdrawn. Mr. Pollock, on assuming the duties of President, briefly expressed his thanks for the honor conferred, and addressed himself with much force to his co workers in the Sunday-school cause. That cause, he said, must succeed and flourish, because it is the cause of God. The Sabbath-school teacher should. be earnest, zealous, and faithful, for otherwise it is impossible to succeed. The present time was preg nant with interest for the good of the Church, as well as the nation. The. Sabbath-school teacher is One of God's officers in the grandest army of the world. He must be' active and vigilant, always on the look-out for the attacks of the enemy, and care ful Of the welfare of those committed to his charge. There were four hundred schools in this city, and it was a part of the duty of this Convention to adopt such measures as will promote their usefulness and efficiency. - The Committee on Business reported for the con sideration of the Convention the following ques tions, after which the body adjourned : 1. What are the best means to procure accurate information in regard to the Sabbath-schools of the city? 2. What arc the most efficient means to impart increased vigor to our Sunday-schools? S. How ate the thou sands of destitute children id our midst to be brought under the influence of the Sabbath-schools ? THE ANDERSON TROOP—PATRIOTISM IN YOUNG MAICIfoOD.—Last summer a young lad, a pupil in the seminary at Williamsport, whilst so journing in this city to pass away the weeks of va cation, enlisted in the Anderson Troop, now in camp near Louisville, Kentucky. His mother, who is a widow, was then absent on a visit to a daughter in Maryland. Informed on her return of what had transpired, she wrote her son, who is a minor, as to whether she should commence proceedings with a view to his discharge from the service, and re ceived his answer, asking her to desist from such undertaking, in these patriotic words: "You wish to know if I like the life. Certainly not. I never expected to, but am much better pleased than I even anticipated.• I did notenter the army because I thought. I would like it, but enlisted simply out of a sense of duty. r am a Northerner by birth ; all my interests in this world are there, and I was reared and educated under the American flag, the glorious "old stars and stripes," and I could not stand as a casual witness of the downfall of that fag without raising my arm in its defence I could not see our glorious Union totter and fall without rushing to its rescue. You had four sons, and out of those four I was the only one able to obey my country's call, the only - tine capable of de fending the rights of our Constitution—and this is the reason I entered the army; so do not again ask me if I like it, or if I want to be taken out, at your commands. We have received our horses and are kept busy drilling all day; it makes one very tired.: I haire had one or two kicks, although I have very gentle horse and am careful. J. R. was kicked on the leg while on drill. One young man was thrown and injured for life, consequently unlit for service. We will most likely be ordered to Nash ville next week." This young dragoon is a native of Harrisburg, where some of his kindred now reside ; whilst many of his name sleep in the old churchyard at Paxton, a historic spot, three miles from the capital of this State. THE DESTITUTE CONTRABANDS.--The destitute condition of the contrabands who are daily arriving within our lines at Fortress Monroe and Alexandria appeals strongly to the sympathy of those who. are desirous to do what they can to aid these poor people in their present difficult position. They especially need material for beds, such as tow cloth, &c,, and bed clothing, although anything . suitable for women and children, and aged or infirm men, would be useful. Those who have old eom fortables, or old blankets, or any second-hand clothing which they are willing to devote to this purpose, may send the same to Alfred H. Love, :21.2 Chestnut street, who will promptly forwardithem. MISSION TO TILE INSANE.—This interest, lug and truly useful mission at Blockley hospital still prospers beneath the effective management of its original founder, the Rev. Edward C. Jones, who is about completing the fourteenth year of his pas toral labors. This unabated interest, in a self-de nying work is truly worthy of general commenda tion. The cause is one which appeals to the discri minating sympathy of the public, and we hope it will be sustained by our philanthropic citizens. The address of Chaplain Jones is West Philadelphia Sub-Post Office, through which all communications can be made. CORONEWS INVESTIGATION.—Yesterday morning Coroner Conrad commenced an investiga, 2tion in the case of James Burke, who was killed by the falling of a wall at the new Presbyterian Chiirsh, at Broad and Green streets, an Friday afternoon last. ''The evidence showed that the disaster was caused by the arch not being of sufficient strength to support the walls built upon it, but whether this was the result of bad workmanship, or because their plan was not well laid, was not fully developed. The inquest was therefore adjourned until to-day. • SALE or• PRIZE Corrox.—Yesterday, by order of the United States Marshal, the cargo of the schooner Emma was sold at auction, at No. 142 Morph Front street, by Samuel C. Cook, consisting of 120 bales of cotton, slightly damaged, at 40 cents cash. It was first started at 10 cents, and gradually .rose until it reached the above price. Before the sale, Mr. Cook announced that the cotton, when in the hands of the purchaser, was liable to the do vernment tax. The terms of sale were as usual, and cash previous to the delivery of the goods. - THE RIVER DELAWARE.—The tide in the Delaware, at high water, yesterday morning, was forty inches lower than the high water the day be fore. At low water the bar north of Windmill island was entirely bare. The cane. , was also bare. The ferry boats plying between our city and Camden were compelled to steam down the river as far as the navy yard before crossing. The water has not been so low in the Delaware for many years. The gale from the northwest did it all. THE RECENT QUARRY ACCIDENT.— Christian Rex ; one of the three men killed by the caving in of the soap-stone quarry above ISlanayunk, was so horribly mangled that there was scarcely a whole bone left of him. His neck was so horridly mashed that the head was nearly severed from the body. It required three heavy blasts before the workmen could get at his remains. Frxtr.s.—An alarm of fire was created about seven o'clock on Sunday evening by the burning of a bed and some other combustibles at the residence of Mrs. Fidler, Nq. 1901 .Brown street. , On Sunday evening, about seven o'clock, a hot house at Nicetown, Twenty-first ward, belonging to Mrs. Danis, was slightly damaged by lire. The fire originated from a stove. RELIGIOUS.—The vestry of St. DaII , I,(PS (P. E.) Ohureh have called the Rev. Samuel E. Smith, an eloquent and popular minister, at present rector o Grace Church, Huhneville, Bucks county.' Mr. Smith is of Southern birth, but is one of that class, ; have remained true to the flag. • of IN TILE SCILITYLNILL.—Yesterday morning there was a thin coat of ice across the.; Schuylkill, in the neighborhood of Market-street bridge. The navigation was much impeded thereby, although the.ice was not of Butticient thickncsa to accommodate THE POLIO:E.

SENTSINCEM TO Till: COUNTY PnISON. —The following sentences were iMposed in the Court of Quarter Sessions yesterday : ", Henry - McMinn, convieted -of the larceny of a ItatCh; Wei sentenced to eight months in thel,o` unty Prison. William Davis,, convicted of lar000y t • to three months' impriSOtatetit. PRESS.---PIIILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1862. Richard O'Neil, convicted 'of keeping a disorderly house, to three months' imprisonment. 'William Jones, oonvicted of larceny, to five months' imprisonment. Mary Crawford, convicted of obtaining goods under false pretences, to three months' imprison ment, Hannah Mitchell was placed on trial on the charge of the larceny of $BO in treasury notes,_ and a silver watch valued at $26, the property of Samuel Mott. The evidence adduced developed the fact that Mr. M. was about to start house-keeping, and Hannah was simply to act as his housekeeper. Availing •herself of an opportunity, it was alleged that she purloined the money and watch. The jury failed to agree upon a verdict. Hannah was dis charged. Supreme Court at Nisi Prins -- Justice Thompson. Jury trials for the November sessions of this court commenced yesterday, but the list of cases for the day was disposed of without ajury being ernp an nailed in a single case. Two oases werenon-prossed, and others were marked under settlement and continued. In the case of Chew's Executors vs. Benjamin Chew, Judge Thompson read an opinion sustaining plain tifiliP demurrer to defendant's pleas. The action was trespass for vicsne profits, and the pleas denied plain tits' title to sue, because of a provision in the first' codicil of the will of testator to the effect that 'any legatee or devisee in the will or codicil who should contest or litigate any of the provisions of the same, then, as to or them, the devises therein contain ed should become null and void, and the portion of such litigant should go to and be distributed amongst the other devisees and legatees. The plaintiff's are devisees as well as executors. J uclge Thompson held that the clause of forfeiture had reference to the legatees and devisees as such, and not to the executors as such ; and - the factthat the plaintilli; are devisees as well as executors does not affect their right to act in their official charac ter. In the District Court the areument list was under consideration. The court granted a new trial in the MC of Sloat vs. Harris, in which, a short time ago, a verdict, was rendered in favor of defendant, and damages certilled in his favor in the sum of $3,000. The plaintiff is in Richmond, manufacturing arms, as is alleged, for the rebel Government.

The object of the following certificates is to show that cures at 1220 WALNUT Street are permanent and re liable. The first cure was performed nearly three years ago, the second was performed nearly one year ago, the third about one year, and hundreds more of like ease., might be shown. '- READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY. - About twelve Months ago I had a severe attack of Diabetes, attended with other difficulties too numerous to • mention. My desire for drink was constant, and al though I drank gallons per day, my thirst was never allayed; I was only able to sleep at short. intervals, which seemed like a trance. The mucous surface of my mouth and throat had become so parched and feverish, that I was in constant misery. I was also suffering from all the horrors of Dyspepsia, loss of appetite, Nau sea, and frequent and severe attacks of vomiting; and so prostrated was my general system, that was scarcely able to move about. I had availed myself of the science and skill of distinguished medical men, both of the Allo pathic and Homoeopathic school, and exhausted their catalogue of remedies, but found only temporary relief. In this condition, when every ray of hope seemed Para lyzed, I heard of the discovery of Professor Bolles in the use of Electricity, and the wonders he was performing in curing disease, and placed myself tinder his treatment ; and, to the astonishment of myself and friends, in two operations my Diabetes was controlled, and other diffi culties soon disappeared ;my appetite has returned, sleep undisturbed, and, in fact,l feel like one made anew. I would further state that I have seen other remark able cures performed by Prof. Belle, and would advise the diseased to call at le!A) Walnut street, andbe restored to health. I shall be glad to give any one information calling on me. THO3IAS HARROP, • Rose Mill, West Philadelphta. Philadelphia, May 1et,193). Read the following from apreacher of the Methodist Episcopal Church, No. Ins Helmuth street, Philadel pha: In attempting a definition of my disease, I can only give some of the many symptoms which, taken altoge ther, wore the most horrid; and even medical men did not know my disease from pathological symptoms. How ever, Professor C. H. Bolles, by whom I was cured, lo cated my disease in the pelvic viscera, in five minutes after I entered his office, and offered to warrant a perfect cure in eight applications. And I frankly admit that in eight applications of Electricity, administered by Pro fessor B , oLLES, Walnut street, Philadelphia, I am perfectly cured ; and to me this is most astonishing, for I bad exhausted the catalogue of old-school remedies; and grew worse all the time. I bud long believed that in Electricity resided a potent agent for the cure of disease, if a right application could be made; and now I can comprehend, from its rmwerful effects on me, for a speedy cure, although no shocks were given. All was pleasant, and accomplished as if.by magic. I will give most of my symptoms, for the benefit of suffering humanity. I had dyspepsia, bad marasinus, or wasting of the tissues of the whole body: at times a difficulty of breathing, some palpitation of the heart, muck bronchitis, trembling of the limbs after exercise, aversion to business and company; at times gloomy, isms bit ity to collect my thoughts vigorously on any subject, a loss of memory, pain in various parts of the body; suf fered much from lumbago, deranged secretions of .the kidneya and other`glands of the system, constant drag ging pains in the lumbar region, and severe nervons,dis rinses. I believe it is my duty, asa lover of humanity, to re commend this discovery orProfess; or BOLLES to lthe afflicted of all clflasea. There seems to be no guesswork, no confusion, no matter of doubt in his treatment. He proceeds on fixed principles, and according to fixed laws, which seem to me infallible - and harmonious. lie war rants,hy apecial contract, the most-obstinate.' - chronic and acute cases, and charges nothing, if lie fails. I ad vise all of the diseased to try his Treatment. / EDWARD T. EV.LNS. Preacher in M. E. Church, 16'33 HELMUTH Street. Philadelphia. ANOTHER CURE OF PARALYSIS OF THE LOWER L131.1* (Paraplegia) AND APOPLEXY CO_IIB/NED. Read the following: PITILIDRLP2II, March 31,1661 Pitoexszon House, Walnut street; - The remarka ble cure which I have derived from your method of ap plying Electricity compels me to thus acknowledge the great obligations 1 am ender to you for snatching me, ins it were, from immediate death. About two years ago, while a resident of Cincinnati, Ohio, I was visited with au attack of paralysis of the lower extremities, which rendered - rte almost entirely unable to stand upon my limbs. I employed some of the most celebrated physi cians to be found in that - section, but received no appa rent benefit, and after a lapse of about eighteen months was taken with a spasm, which one of my physicians "Pronounced a fit of apoplexy. Two weeks elased from that tine before I became the least conscious of f anything that had transpired, nor could I concentrate my minder converse upon any subject without becoming very-vi sionary - and excited, until I.:pi:toed myself under your valuable treatnieut. After my arrival in Philadelphia my attention was called to your treatment by a pamphlet bandedeue by my father, which contained the names of some gentlemen whom I hail been formerly acquainted with, and whose statements I could rely upon. I imme diatelvnade up my mind to place mrelf under your treatment.' I have now been the recipient of four treat ments,.and I now feel perfectly satisfied that I ens re stored to a sound condition, and thefore feel it my duty to gratefully acknowledge the beuefita which I have re ceived through your treatment. Very respectfully yours, Ste., WILLIAM H. SHAIN, Publisher of the National ..Iferchant, office 126 South S2COND Street, Philadelphia. 11. B.—lt will lie well for the diseased to recollect that Paof. B. has given a word of caution in his pamphlet. to guard them utpunst trusting their.health.in the haarls.of those In this city claiming to treat diseases according to. his discovery. This caution may. seem severe on those using Electricity at hAzard, hat it is the severity of truth, and designed for the "good of humanity. See advertise ment in another column.
