DR. S. W. BECKWITH’S
(FORMERLY PROF. 0. H. BOLLBB’)
EXiBCTiRICAL INSTITUTE*
1230 "WALNUT BTREET,
FOB THE TREATMENT OF AOTJTE AND
CHRONIC DISEASES.
Electrical investigation has proved that the human
bodj acta on the principle of the galvanic battery. The
brain* nraeae and serous membranes, the »kln, tissues,
and fluids, constitute tb« negative and positive forces ?
and every action, whether menial or physical, in the
result of these ant agonistic forces. Digestion, respira
tion, circulation, secretion, and excretion are. due
solely to Electrical inflaence. There is a polar astion
established throughout the nervous system which .con
nects with every part of the body* establishing and
preserving a proper balance of the electrical element,
wnlch constitutes health, and a disturbance of which
causes disease. There are, strictly, but two conditions
of ditease—one of inflammation, or positive; the other
weak, debilitated, negative ; and as Electricity contains
these two conditions in the action of the positive aud
hasative currcn’s, all we have.to do is to neutralize the
disease and restore proper healthy action.
We do not wish to convey the impression that we ezure
all diseases in all conditions. We cannot cute coasump-..
tlon after the lungs ere all destroyed: .yet we.do assert; *
and are prepared to practically demonstrate- that hun
dreds of cases of almost every form of chronic disease,
pronounced incurable by the belt medical practitioners
of [the country, have been radically ouaed, some of
; them in an incredibly short time, by out. Electrical
I treatment. Its great superiority over other practices in
the cure of disease is also attestedin the faetthat, within
the past'flve years, over fourteen thousand patients
have been treated at this office, Buffering [from almost
every form and condition of disease common to hu
; inanity, and in nearly ati cases a bent At or perfect cure
has been effected. Therefore, with these FACTS.to
prove our theory and treatment of disease, 1 we are will
ing to undertake any of the following diseases, with
every hope and prospect of success, with very many,
others not hero enumerated:
L Diseases of the Brain and Nervous System —Epi
lepsy. Chorea or St., Vitus’ Dance, Paralysis (Hemiple
gia and Paraplegia), Neuralgia, Hysteria, Nervousness,
Palpitation of the Heart, Dock-jaw, etc., etc.; also,
diseases of the Eye and Ear.
2. Organs and Tissues connected with the Digestive
System.— Sore Throat, Byipepsla, Diarrhoea;'Dysen
tery, Obstinate Constipation, Haemorrhoids or Files,
Bilious. Flatulent, and FaSnter*s Colic, and ali affee*
tions of the Liver and Spleen.
& Respiratory Organs. —Catarrh, Cough, Influenza,
Asthma, (when not caused by orgauie disease of the
heart). Bronchitis. Pleurisy, Pleurodynia’or Rheuma
tism of the Cheit, Consumption in the early stages, ,
4. Fibrous and Muscular System.— Rheumatism*
Gout, Lumbago, Stiff Neck, Spinal Curvature, Hip
Disease, Cancers. Tumors.
5. Urinary and Qenital Organs. —Gravel,' Diabetes,
and Kidney Complaints,lmpotence and Seminal Weak*
:nesc. The latter complaints never fail to yield rapidly
to this treatment.
.6. Diseases Peculiar to Females. —Uterine Com
plaints, involving a mah position, as Prolapsus, Ante
version. Betroversion Inflammation. Ulceration, and
various other affections of toe Womb and Orarier,Pain
ful, Suppressed, Scanty, or Profuse Menstruation, Leu
corrhcea."
; to IaDISS can we recommend this treatment as one
of UNVARIED SUCCESS. Almost innumerable cases
have come under treatment at our office who can testify
to this fact. Mrs. 8. A FULTON, a lady of great exte*.
rience and ability, has entire charge of the Ladles 1 De
partment, and all deticacy wjll be used toward those
who entrust thenuelves to her care. In female diseases
as mentioned in the' above list, with others not men
tioned, she has had a large experience, and can confi
dently promise the most gratifying results.
TO THE AFFLICTED.
The treatment is mild and genije, producing so shock
or unpleasant Mutation whatever. Onz professional
intercourse with the afflicted will ever be characterized
by perfect candor and honesty, and those whose com
plaints are incurable, or do not admit of amelioration,
wIU he frankly fold so, and not accepted for treatment.
It matters- not what may be your complaint, or how
long you have suffered, or how much or what Course
of treatment you may have been subjected to, or what
disappointments you have experienced; if the systetn is
not worn out—if sufficient vitality remsiasfoi reaction-?-
there Is a fair prospect of recovery.

The city was much excited on yesterday by ac
counts of agreat-battle pn Wednesdaynlght, near
Petersburg. The .accounts were that the enemy

massed, and wore repulsed with great slaughter in.
five adults. Our ootemporary, the Petersburg
Express, was completely taken In, and published a ,
glowing and fanciful account about Yankees charg
ing up to ;our, breastworks, being fairly "mowed"
down by the. fire of our troops, the slaughter being
terrific, and the Yankees being “ dismayed," Sus.,ab
though It,was confessed, the night was so dark that
a man could not be seen at a distance of twenty feet.
The truth of,.the matter, as we learned yesterday
evening, was that there was Indeed a grand exhibi
tion of fireworks, but no battle, and scarcely any
.one hurt.' TJu»irpops holding Gordon’s line, taking
’advantageofthedarknesa, were strengthening their
chevaux iefrise and abattis in front of their works.
The Yankees.gppoelte hearing, the noise, and sup
posing Gordon was coming alter them, again opened
aheavy fire of-artillery which was replied to on our
Bide.. The two picket lines also opened a noisy
musketry-fire,.which was kept up for several hours.
A very few men. 'were wounded, on our side ; the
enemy probably suffered no more. The explosion
of artillery, occurring in the silence of the night was
distinctly heard even In this city, and the belter In
•an important engagement was at first universal.
Passengers by last P. M. train from. Petersburg
report considerable fifing on our right yesterday.
It was also reported that our cavalry had a skirmish
with Sheridan at Dinwiddle C. H.

BBBBL LOSSBB AT VOBT'STjsABJtAIf.
The rebei journals hare already admitted their
defeat in thenttacir on Fort Steadman, and are now
bemoaning their, losses, which thoy are beginning
to discover were large. The Dispatch of the 30th,
speaking on the subject, says;
i .From.GtpaUs official reports oonceming the bat
tle, which we publlshelsewhere, It would appear that
■our loss In that battle was much more serious than
•we are prepared to believe; yet we confess ourselves
to be without the means of contradicting the Yankee
statements. Grant claims to have captured twenty
two hundred of our mien during the attack on Forts
Steadman and Haskell, General Lee, in his re
port ol that affaisyS*klj t “ Oar loss, as reported, is
small.” Telegrame ajsftlettore from Peterauurg just
after the fight stated thiagi “ we lost Bereral hundred
prisoners.” Grant also claims to have taken
ttvw“ hundred prisoners at Hatcher’s Ban on
-the same day. Again, as In the previous oase, we
ereWlthout the . Information necessary to disprove
Taw-troth of-hia.figures. Hut when he comes to the
; sUbjeet ofhls own losses .wo are,more fortunate. Ho
says: « Onr loss is estimated at eight hundred, but
may prove.less.” We have now In our keeping
over that number of prisoners, taken from him on
that day ; and surely It will not he pretended that
no Yankees were killed or wounded fit the fight.
We have no doubt that ' Grant has as much exagge
rated his captures as ho has understated his losses.
The glaring falsity oft-one portion of his report Is
.sufficient to throw dlscredlt.on the whole.
A obrreot official report of our losses on the whole
' line south of the Appomattox on Saturday wouldbo
most acceptable to the. people, and we hope, that
such a one will be published.—- ,
AN ABMADiAoI&OITY POINT.
“Reliable intelligence from City Point represent*
the.presence of fifteen monitors and forty iron-clad
vessels in the James riper, besides an Innumerable
fleet of smaller and less formidable boat*. Since
the attempt of the Confederates to pass the Yankee
obstructions, the enemy has doubled his vigilance
and largely Increased his naval force. Commodore
Porter is in oommand of the James Dyer fleet, and
'hls flagship occupies a prominent position among
the vessels. Olty-Polntls now a populous place,

SITUATION IN NORTH CAROLINA.
The Whig, of March 31st, thus gives the situation
In North Carolina: ‘ “ All the account* which reach
us through official and from private letters, written
from the North Carolina front, give us a most en
couraging review of the situation. The history of
military operations soarcely furnishes' a parallel.
tb the change whtch has been within the space of a
month or two, wrought in the morale and strength
of the Army of Tennessee by the reappointment of
: General Johnston to its command, Confidence has
been substituted fer despondency, .And seal and
energy for suplneness. The people and the press in
that region have caught the Infection from the
army, and are not only talking in the right vein,
‘but evincing their faith and’devotion by liberal
contributions of money and provisions for the sup
port of .General Johnston’s gallant army.”
The Raleign Ftugms of last Monday, discussing
the situation, and drawing courage and hope from
It, says:
“ Sherman Is reported to he somewhere In the vi
cinity or Goldsboro, with the Intention, no doubt,
to try to make bis way to Virginia via Weldon. Of
the movements ofour army, it is not proper , for ns
to speak, but It will be In the right place at the,
right time. We are Impressed with the belief that
; Sherman Intended, when he left Fayetteville, to
pay Raleigh a visit, but General John
ston persuaded Mm that the journey would
be unwholesome to himself and hls troops; and
. he was thoroughly convinced of the faot at an
interview neat Bentonsville, and changed Us course
in accordance with the impressive advice of General
Johnston. We leant that since General Johnston’s
restoration to the command, thousands of the sol
diers of the'Army of Tennessee, long ’absent with
out leave,’ have returned to‘ their old chief. In
stead of a demoralized mags, the Army of Tennes
see is now buoyant, and follow with pride the
standard of-their JbrmaaAeommander, whom they,
seem to love and reverence as children do a fathejf.
And betides the Army of Tennessee, General John
ston now has in hls command troops that have never ‘
been demoralized—never known the definition of
the word defeat. With such an army, the proba
bilities of suocess amount almoßt to a certainty.
Well may Sherman oast about him for some mode
of escape. Hls rapid career Is not only checked,
but he IB brought to a dead halt. AU accounts agree
that never dlu troops behave better chan ours in the
recent battles In this State, General Johnston-him
self was upon the field at Bentonsville, glorying in
the success achieved by the gallant daring orhls
men, and afitmatlngthem in the conflict, regardless
: of hls own personal safety. With sueh-a leader and
such an army we may confidently expect .the bless
ing of God and a glorlouß success.’’
Of the battle of Bentonsville the Progress says:
■ “Our entire loss at Bentonsville may be put-down,
In round numbers, at two thousand five hundred.
The proportion of the killed was small, and most of
; the wounds were alight. It is thought that more
than half onr entire loss will ne restored to the army
In a month’s time. In the hospitals here there are
comparatively few that will not be readyfor servloe
In less than a month.”
“ BAVAOES 01 THE ENEMT IN SOUTH CAROLINA.”
The propsr retrlbuUon whloh Sherman has visited
on this State is the subjeottof jtttd- odfhplaiat, and
the usual tough stories abeuf .the cruelty of our sol
diers (a la Georgia papers) appear in what journals
are left in existence. The Fairfield Courier gives a
long account of the excesses committed by the ene
my In the town of Winnsboro’, from which we ex
tract the lollowlng:
“ Onr once beautiful town presents now a most
pitiful Bight.. Residences and stores that once lifted
their proud heads to Heaven are now numbered
among the things that were. Oharred ruins now
meet the gaze, where once the busy feet of man
passed in the dally pursuits oGlfe. And all this
Is done by-people catling themselves men.
They have belied their title, not being even fit
for an association among the brntes they have slain,
whose carcases:meet the eye on our public roads.
There were about thirty buildings burned, Includ
ing dwellings and stores and immense amounts of
cotton. The Yankees did not seem to oar* Whether
a building was ocoupled or not, but ploked out
houses where, in their burning, they would commu
nicate the flames to other-premises. Every particle
of property burned belonged to private Individuals.
No public property was destroyed. The Yankees
also set fire to and destroyed the Episcopal Church,
situated In the northwestern portion of the town;
and while it was hunting they took the organ,
played, upon It, and sang blasphemous songs
Many .of the citizens were plundered; wed
ding rings and mementoes or deceased husbands or
parents were stolen as ruthlessly as gold oolnwonld
have been. Watches and jewelry were out from the
persons of ladies, and, In same Instances, their shoeß
removed on the pretence of searching fbr rings.
After a oomment upon these outrages, the Courier
gives a sketch of the devastaticnßocoasioned on the
ronte taken by the enemy, Borne portion of which we
-copy:
“Leaving onr town the enemy.tookthelrltaeof
march on Rte State road Hiding to Blackfltock’p,
South Carolina. On the route their road oan be
easily distinguished by tall chimneys standing soli
tary and alone, and blackened-embers, as it were,
laying at their feet. Every fine residence, all eoru
cribs, smoke houses, botton-glhs, all tbat oonld
five comfort to man, were committed to the flames;
ead animals, horses, mules, cows, salves and hogs,
slain by the enemy, are’ scattered Along the road to
Blackstock’s. In one place, we counted fourteen
fine milch cows, with their young, lying In the
space of a balf-aore field, having been Bhot. To
show with what brutality they even treated dumb
creatures, we discovered two calves hung with
telegraph'wire, and left in that position to
die. of utter starvation. .Others again had wire
ingeniously wound around the leg and neck In such
a posltlon that, In walking, the jagged end of the
wire wonld penetrate the throat} and so they died
by slow torture. The railroad track from Wlnns
boro to about four hundred yards 03 the other side
of Blaokstocb’s Is on« mass of ruins. Those, of our
frlends'who lived in tho country fared a great deal
worse than did those In town. In some instances,
we heard of ladles being oursod and threatened to
be shot,, but in no case have we. heard of life
being taken from any one. Some old and Venerated
citizens weie hung up, again and again, to oxtort
confession of valuables supposed to be hidden, or
wklere slaves represented them to be possessed of
eoln or the like.”
OAPTUEE OF BRISTOL BY STOHUMAW,
The Lynchburg Virginian of March 29th says
the enemy, “ we' suppese Stoneman’s cavalry,"
have flankedSrlstol, leaving it to the left, and are
passing by.way of Taylsrsvflle In the direction of
Glade Spring. Taylorsville hr In Johnson county,
Tennessee, In the extreme northeastern corner of
tho State. Of course this movement will Compel
the evacuation of Bristol.

The Petersburg Express says that at an early
hour oh Wednesday morning aheavy force of the ene
my, oonsisttngof cavalry,lnfantry, and artillery, sup*‘
posed to be headed by Cavalry Sheridan, made -a
detour around our llneß, and advanced toward the
Boydton plank-road, and between seven and eight
o’olock struck this throroughfare some six miles
beyond Dinwiddle Court House. Towards eleven
o’clock we understood this rorce was In’ the vicinity
of the Oouit House, our forces skirmishing heavily
with their advance. Last evening it was reported
that the enemy had reached the Court House, and
was demonstrating towards. Boyer’s Mill. It Is be-
lieved that the destination of this force la the
Sonthside Railroad, Which Grant wishes t 6 de
stroy, and thereby Cut off Gen; Lee’s communica
tion and diminish his supplies. While demonstra
ting on the plank-road, it la thought the main body
of the cavalry, struck out through the country, in'
the direction of the railroad. This, however. Is sot
particularly known;

1 Alexander B. Stephens, Yloe President O. S.,in
an address to the citizens of Savannah, In March,
1861, made use of the following, words: “ The pre
vailing ideas entertained by Jefferson and most of
the leadlrgstatesmen, at the time of the formation
of the old Constitution, were that the enslavement
of the African was In violation of the laws of na
ture; that it was wrong in principle, socially, mo
rally, and politically. * * * Those ideas,
however, were fundamentally wrong. * » *
It •was a sandy foundation, and the Idea of a Go
vernment built upon It was wrong—when the storm
came and the wind blew, it fell. Our new Govern
ment is founded upon exactly the opposite ideas.
Its foundations are laid, Its corner stone rests upon
the great truth that the negro Is not equat to the
white man; that slavery, subordination to the su
perior race, Is hls natural and normal condition.
This, our new Government, Is the firstln the history
ol the world built upon this groat physical, philo
sophical, and moral truth.”

The gay and fashionable belles of Paris work
harder than men at the galleys. Think of a young
married lady, with a rapidly-filling nursery, going
out night after night, coming home on Monday, say,
at one o’clock, on Tuesday at four, on Wednesday
at midnight, on Thursday at three, on Friday at four,
winding up the week’s work on Saturday by coming
home In the broad daylight at seven o’clock, and
commencing the new week with an afternoon con
ceit, a dinner, and a soiree! Some women have
successfully cultivated the habit of sleeping In tbe
afternoon or take an extra dinner at four or five
u’clook, and go straight to bed after it, sleeping till
balf.past eight or nine, when they are awakened by
their maid, and proceed to the business of dressing

totally ossified with the exception that he could
move two of hie fingers, and make the slightest per

Tie experience of tie pact two weeks has teen in
fctruciiye to capitalists: it has taught them that Govern
ment stocks are the only stable investment. While eve
rything else has declined ruinously, they have been
firm as a rock ; while faith in everythin* else has di
minished, faith in United States securities has grown
daily. The result is. everybody regards them as the
safest investment; in tact, the only safe Investment at
the present time, and will continue to be so regarded.
In the special mcssai e of the Hay or, sent to Gity Coun
cils at their last meeting, the following compliment is
paid to our excellent Gity Treasurer, Mr. Bamm, which
will be heartily endorsed by all who know how zealous
and untiring are the efforts of that officer to promote the
financial interests of the city government:
**ln thn» affording the information requested by
Councils, I deem it not out of place,' from constant offi
cial intercourse with the City Treasurer, to commend
the zenloas and untiring efforts ihac he hat made to so
manage the 'finance* of the city at may best promote Us
credit. The measures adopted by him, relative to the
negotiations of the funded debt, have had my full as
sent, and whilst no opportunity has been neglected to
effect a judicious sale of the city loans, the public esti
mate of these securities has not been depressed byincau
tiously forcing them upon purchasers ’ ’
. At Chicago the money marks* Is characterized by ex
treme stringency, and the hanker* generally refuse to
discount all paper of a speculative character. Some of
the banks are accommodating their customers sparingly
at 10 per cent, per annum*, but on the street rates range
from 2@4 per cent, per month. There is a fair supply
of currency, bnt lenders are .unwilling to take risks in
the present state of affairs.
The amendatory tax bill went into operation on Sa
turday. It imposes a tax of one-tenth of one per sent,
upon all safes of gold and silver coin, and one-twentieth
of one per sent, upon all sales of stocks and bonds. The
act of June,lS64, provided for the same tax on stocks as
the new one, »nd gold was taxed at the same rate, in
the following words: ‘ * Upon &U sales and contracts for
sales of stocks and bonds one- twentieth of one per c*nt
' um oh the par value thereof; and of gold and silver
bullion and coin, and foreign exchange, promissory
notes or other securities one-twentieth of one per cent
tit7i on the amount of such sales and of all contracts for
such sales ” The amendment is in these words:
That section ninety-nine be amended by striking out
the words ‘gold and silver bullion and coin,’ and
by'striking out ‘of all contracts fcr such sties,* and in
serting in. lieu thereof the words 'upon any sales or
contracts for ih« sale of gold and stiver bullion and coin
one-tenth of one per centum of th e amount of such sales
or contracts. * ’ *
The firm of Ladd Brothers & Co., of Steubenville,
Ohio, have failed to a heavy amount in the pork pack
ing business. The firm one year ago, according to a
Western paper, were, worth $300,000, and now are not
worth One dollar. This failure is said to extend to a
number of farmers, merchants, and others in the towns
of Bichmond, Smithfield, and Mt. Pleasant, in Jeffer
son county, Ohio.
The New York, Providence, and Boston Railroad
Company has declared a net quarterly dividend of
three per cent., pay able on the 3d of April.
The State' of Massachusetts pays the interest on its
debt in coin. The city of Boston paid interest in coin
on the Ist day only of April, and pays after that the
equivalent of gold at the market price of that day. In
terest is also due April Lit on Boxbnrj city, Mass., six
per cent. toads, at treasurer's office or Suffolk Bank.

If those who are in doubt as to the ability of the Go*
vernment to carry on the war until the rebellion is
wholly subdued will examine the above table tbey will
be somewhat reassured. The Government, throughout
the war, has been the great consumer of the twelve
articles named, which form a large part of the cost of
sustaining the army and navy. To make Its purchases
it has uied its credit at par in legal tenders, or paper
money, of which the buying value may l e thus stated:
A Government bond of SI,COO would buy, Auguste,
1884, and If arch 29, 1866, the following quantities:
March 29.1866. Aug 6. 1£64. Increase.

Salt, bneh —........ 2 000 952 l',o4Bbush.
Sugar, fts— 4,999 4 645 464 fts.
These figures show that the progress of the army has
advanced the buying capacity of the Government credit
to a point where the expenses of the war are made less
burdensome, and assurance is given that its total cost
is to be much under the predictions of dtiloyal people,
and will reach in the aggregate a sum easily eon*
troti&ble, and sure to be soon extinguished after the
return of peace.
