WONDERFUL
SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY!
(FORMERLY PROF, 0. H. SOLLB3 1 )
X&XjELCH? JBXpiLX4 " XISfSTF XXTrrXS,
Electrical investigation has proved that tha human
body set* oe the principle of the galvanic battery. The
brain, muon* and serous membranes, the skin, tissues,
and fluids, constitute the negative and positive forces?
and every action* whether mental or physical, U the
ret nit of ties* antagonistic force*. Digestion, respira
tion, circulation, secretion, and excretion are due
solely to Electrical influence. There is a polar attlon
established throughout the nervous system which'con
nects with etery. part of the body, establishing and
preserving a proper balance of the electrical' element,
which constitute health, and a disturbance of which
causes disease. There axe, strictly, but two conditions
of disease—one of inflammation, or positive; the oihsr
weak, debilitated* negative; and as Electricity contains
these two condidons in the action of the positive and
negative curre&s, all we have to do Is to neutralize the
disease and resfbre proper healthy action.
We do n ot w let to convey the impression that we core
all diseases in all conditions. We cannot cuie consump-
tion after the luces ere all destroyed: yet we do assert,
and are prepared to practically demonstrate, that hun
dreds of almost everr form of chronic disease,
pronounced iicurable by the best medical practitioners
of (the countlf* have been radically cored, some of
them in an Leredibly short time, by our Electrical
treatment. Ith great superiority over other practices in
the cure of disease is also atcestedin the fact that; within
the past five years, over fourteen thousand patients
have been treated at this office, suffering from almost
every form and condition of dise&se common to hu
manity, and In nearly all eares.a benefit or perfect cure
has -been effected. Therefore, with these FACTS to
prove our theory and treatment of disease, we are will
ing to undertake any of the following diseases, with
every hope and prospect of success, with very many
oihers hot here Numerated:

TO LADIES can we recommend this treatment at one
of UHYABIED SUCCESS. Almost innumerable cases
have come under treatment at our office who can testify
to this fact. Mrs. S. A FULTOH, a lady of great expe
rience and ability, has entire charge of the Ladies’ De
partment, and all delicacy will be used toward those
who entrust themtelves to her care. In female diseases
as mentioned in-the above list,’ with'others not men
tioned, she hashed a large experience, and can confi
dently promise the most gratifying results.
TO 'THE AFFLICTED.
The mild and gentle,producing no shock
or unpleasant station whatever. Our professional
intercourse wifch.Ue afflicted will ever be characterized
by perfect candor \nd honesty, and those whose com
plaints are incurable, or do not admit of amelioration,
will be frankly told 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
disappointment* you have experienced; if the system is
not worn out—if sufficient vitality remaias for reaction—
there is a fair prospect of recovery. . , *

PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY, APRIL 10, 1865.
. How soon this army will venture upon “new and
untried dangers,” to quote tbp language of Sher
man's last vigorous congratulation, Is, of course, the
ordinary question here, as at home. The: army,
according to information from headquarters, is
under orders to be ready for marohtbg within a few
hours. Thqre is, therefore, little hope , that the
veterans of the Carolina campaigns trill'have rest
to feast upon “ the rich granaries and storehouses
of our magnificent country.” Of this superb,pro
mise, it becomes the duty of the veracious historian
to declare, the army of Atlanta and Savahnah was
somewhat sceptical. ,
Yesterday, Gen. Sherman returned to his head
quarters in Goldsboro, bringing with him Ms dis
tinguished brother, Senator Sherman, on a brief
visit to the camps.. Calls wore made upon the Se
nator by Generals Hogan, Blair, Geary, and a host
of friends, political and military, and in the eve
ning he reoeived the customary refreshment of a

INTELLIGENCE FROM SHERMAN’B ABUT.
THE SHEEHANS.
OEQ ANIMATION.
The consolidation of the foroes of Schofield, Terry,.
and Couch into the grand army will make am im
portant feature In the new advance. This body
will form the centre, Howard and Stooum'directing
right and left wings, as heretofore. OOuch - and
Terry, Hie former's; senior major- general, wiUi it is
expected, command the 23d Corps and another fo be
organized. Goldsboro ia efficiently guarded by the
9th New Jereey Regiment, of Schofield’s corps, the
23d.
The news that Brevet Major General 'Williams
has been relieved at his own request from command
of the 20th Army Corps, has created general regret
In that fine organization, and among all the many
friends of this faithful and veteran offloer. Brevet
Major General Joseph Mower, of Missouri, a rdhgh.

AN EXECUTION.
The Impressive, and, for a long time, unusual
spectacle of a military execution'was witnessed-yes
terday by Gen. Cox’s division of Schofield’s com
mand. Tho criminal was a soldier of the 12 th New
York Cavalry, who, after a careful trial, was oon
vloted of atrocious violence towards some ladles of
Kinston.. The .troops formed, a hollow square, and
tho pale prisoner, a young man of .twenty-four* was
marched between ranks facing eaoh other, his coffin
borne in front by four men—a sight awful and chil

NORTH CAROLINIANS.
, The remaining people of this portion of North
Carolina afford a singular study and deserve a note.
Excepting their communion of language with our
selves, the raw and seedy citizens whom we . but
seldom meet, are alike aliens as well as strangers.
Home-made hats and clothes, worn and ra-worh, or
ragged,are theprevaiilngcostume. Theold men have
a superannuated cast, without the dlgnityof patri
archs, and an outlandish elonch and looseness. One
of these ancients, “peaked like John O’Gauht,”
grizzled gray,unshaved, and smiroked with tobacco,
hardly curbing a restiveness to stuff his hands in his
pockets and spurt, is a droll, sad figure at a gene
ral’s headquarters. A troop of them coming into
town is a strange, procession. The children are
another extreme, to show how extremes meet, and
some of these vagrant urchins give signs of having
received their education in a school less proficient)
perhaps, than JjH&Phoealx’s board-yard, where the
only letter out of all alphabets, and! the
principal exorcise "firing stones.” -The young
countrymen are apparent boors and peasants,
who point u their, n and talk “right smart, I
reckon.” Negroes, in this country, thonghhardier
and more weatherwise than those of some other por
tions of the South, seem’ to be moro stolid, and less
genial In the traits of their raeg. So" much for the,
surface of this land of corn crackers, the despised of
South Carolinian sentiment and chivalry. Intelli
gent residents, familiar with the North Carolinian
nature,‘declare, however, that , the people of these
pine barrens are hospitable, after a fashion of their
own, though the tar makers, the rough farmers,
and the poor white commons generally are ignorant
in the extreme.

the people paid no attention to It, or did not seem
to believe tnelr own eyes, Sunday morning Gen.
Lee telegraphed to Dayla stating that the lines had
been pierced In many places, and that unless he
could re-establish them, Blclimond must be given
up that night. His tone was, for the first time
sines the war, despondent j he said his men were
not coming np to their work. -At 11 o’clock that
morning he telegraphed that all efforts to re-esta
blish hi! lines bad been utterly unsuccessful. Im
mediately began among the officials in Richmond
a scurry s>&d panic* still tho majority of tw
people were in the dark, and remained till night.
The gold and silver coin belonging to the Louisi

bv the Oonfederate Congress, was ran down to the
Danville train with hot haste. Then the programme
for the departure of the officials was arranged.
A number of trains were to leave during the eve

it desirable to get away. Davis was to depart at T

A BATnEK ALIA—THE CITY SACKED.
This deputation started to the front before day
light, bnt in the meantime a saturnalia had begun
in the city. About dusk the Government commis
saries begun the destruction of an Immense quantity
of whisky and brandy stored In the large building
northwest corner of Pearl and Cary streets. Several |
hundred soldiers and citizens gathered In front of
the building, and contrived to save much of the 11-
auor in pitchers, bottles, and basins. Thlsltauorwas

some attempts were made to distribute supplies,
but so frenzied had the mob become that the offl

Sen could be met rolling hogsheads of bacon, mo

rate authorities had guarded against such an event
by holding in the city, to execute their barbarous
work, two large battalions of Southern troops,
eyery man of whom-hated Virginia and Virginians,
and longed for nothing more than to see the
city a ruin. But before the troops detailed to
fire the city reoeived their order, some amateur in
cendiary fired a canal-boat loaded with meat, la the
dock, near Mayo’s bridge. This boat fired two others,
Which burnt the bridge over the dock and out off the
retreat of five or six thousand Confederates. This
was the second fire—the first being the burning or
public papers in Ninth street, early Sunday night.
About; this time the Confederate ■ gunboat Fatriok
Henry* lying in the river off Rocketts, was fired,
and soon after the order was issued to apply the
torch to the warohouies; The order was 'executed '
with alacrity; nor did the ruffians confine them-,
selves to the buildings in question. Getting a taste
of incendiarism, the congenial work seemed to please
themso-muoh that they ran about selling fire to entry
house in Me vicinity Df the different warehouses.
The lncendlarles at Shockoe fired every house on
Shockoe Slip, Including Mr. He Voss’S warehouse,
where was stored a quantity of French tobaoeo.
There was a guard of French local troops over this
bulidjsg, but they were driven off by the Confede
rates and threatened with death if they attempted
to extinguish the flames. Tile torch was also ap
plied to all the buildings recently In Confederate
occupation, from the Tredegar works on the canal
above the oity tothe navy yard at Booketts, a-dis
tance of- two miles, Including Hie laboratories, ar
tillery .shops, arsenals, Franklin paper miff, Pe
tersburg depot, Danville depot, all the commissary
and quartermaster buildings on and near Four

lugs and localities which we haye heretofore men
tioned.' By 7 o'clock A. M. nearly the whole, of
the olty south of Main street, between Eighth and
Ffftcefifh streets, and ■ Twentieth and Twenty
third sHeeU waa one great sea or flame.
VBS FLIGHT OF.THB REBEL AEXT.
Two dlvlsione—Kershaw’s and OustlsLee’s—with
severaHlght batteries, were holding the lines below
theolty; Gradually during the night these troops
.were wlthdfawn'by brigades. The first movements
were orderly enough, but towards morning the re
treat betame a wild flight. It was one of the ghast
liest sights or this awful night to see long lines of
men Hitting like unholy shades through the crowd
ed streets, melr forms made hideous by the glare of
the Incendiary fires that already began to glow.
This truth of fugitives poured on unbroken up Mata
street, aowrrHth street, until broad daylight broke
upon the sopne- Before the last passed over, the
bridge Richmond had been in flames more than an
hour. It was part of the programme that Gary’s
oavairyishould- be the last Confederate troops to
leave the lines below Richmond They were to oome
stealthily on the city about daylight and catch up
all stragglers and citizens that they oould lay hold
of and hurry them off with the army. This part of -
the plan was frustrated by the rapid advance of the
Union forces. Gary passed up Mata street not five
minutes ahead of Hie. Union column, and so far
- from dragging off others, he barely saved himself.
Mayo’s bridge'and the Danville depot wore then
all ablaze. Gary crossed the dock by the bridge at
the southern terminus of Seventeenth street, and
then set fire to the structure. Two citizens, Wil
liam J, Brown, and Robert Allen, chanolng to be
in the.nelghborhood, rushed to the bridge and ex
tinguished the flames before they bad gained head
way. 'While so engaged, they were fired upon by
Gary's men, hut fortunately, neither of them were
struofc. Gary then sped away over Mayo’s bridge,
which was burning from end to end, and almost on
the point of falling in.

A curious discovery has recently been made in
attempting to repair the basement of Pompoy’s
Pillar. A French engineer, having been appointed
by the Viceroy of Egypt to direct the work, caused
a few of the loose stones forming the basement to
be removed. It was soon iound that the pillar rest
ed entirely on a oube of very hard quartzose pudding,
stone within the basement. This cube bore an in

** —The Prfifet de la Seine has doomed todestruotlon
the magnificent Hotel Bonaparte. The object of
tils act of vandalism is the prolonging o. the Rue
Olivier to the Ohaussfee d’Antln, through the Rue
Taltbout. It was originally built Tor tbe great ma
thematician Condorcet. It passed Into the hands
of Talma, and was pnrohased by Mirabeau, who
died in it on the 2d April, 1791. Strange to say,
Madame Mirabeau died tan years later In the identi
cal bed and chamber where her husband had expired.
Madame de Beauharnals became the next proprie
tor of the hotel, and the future Emperor, after his
marriage with her,lived there from the years 17W to
1789. His uncle Cardinal Fetch's residence, wMoh

town of Paris, to be knocked down at the same time.
In the course of some alterations in Wolsey Oha
pel, at Windsor Castle, some highly-colored paint
ings were recently discovered behind stone slabs.
On thoroughly removing the slabs from the panels In
which they had been toserted, full-length portraits
of as many knights of the garter were found painted
on the wall, with strong iron bars in front or each
picture. The kSights are attired in the military
costume of the order. The coloring of the pictures
would. : seem to have been executed in oil, as it is
brilliant; and has a different appearance to the
usual water-color mural paintings. Should the
rest of the atone slabs be removed, (of which there
most be upwards of .twenty,) the panels behind
them will no doubt be found covered with the re
mainder of the series of portraits.

Ms or her powers, for being reoelved enthusiastical
ly by the audience. It Is said that the play has
been well placed npon the stage. We trust that It
Is. Anew play, even wltha “ star” In It, Isoftenmost
injudiciously injured by old scenery and ancient
dresses*-
We would also call attention to the matinee
which will come off at tMs house upon Wednesday
next. It Is for the benefit of the family of the late
Mr. W. H. Paul, who died recently, while still an
attache of the Walnut-street Theatre. He.was an
untiring, most capable and gentlemanly mana
ger of the exterior of the house, and left a host of
attached friends in this city as well as In the pro
fession. The entire companies of the Arch, Chest
nut, aid Walnubßtreet Theatres have volunteered
for this occasion, and Mr. Edwin Adams has also
in the readiest and kindest manner volunteered his
services. Wo trust that tho house will be crowded
from parquet to dome, and that Mr. W. Howard
Panl’sfamlly will receive a handsome testimonial
from Its proceeds, wMoh may render them more
comfortable, although 'it cannot In any way lighten
the sense of their bereavement.
HDBICAL.
One more night of opera was given by Mr. Fordi
at the Academy of Manic, on last Saturday, and we
are gratified to say that the house was well filled,
although not extraordinarily so. The opera which
bad been announced for the oeoaslon was the
“ Eraani” of Verdi, an opera which still retahw Its
old popularity undlmlnlshed In spite of its compara
tive age. We say comparative age in regaTd to the
later production whloh this popular maestro has
thrown off, and none of which may honestly be said
to have exceeded his first success In those attractive
dualities for the popular ear which have combined
to mate Mm a leading maestro in modern Europe
and a prime favorite with our own less critical but
infinitely fresher taste. The artists who appeared
in the opera were the leading artists of the troupe
which lately visited us under the same management,
with the exception of the tenor, who on this occasion
was Signor Maooafenl. The soprano was Oarozsl-
Zueohl, who more than confirmed the warm opinion
Whloh we have previously expressed of her admi
rable talents. She sung the muslo allotted to Elvira
with an esse, a fire, and .an abandon whloh would
have entitled her to the highest rank as an artist,
and which more than justify the warm euloglums
whloh have elsewhere been passed npon her in this
character. Somewhat careless as a vocalist she
i mav at times he, but she Is rarely so as an actress,
and where the occasion demands it sho.pours forth
the muslo with a passionate strength wMohls almost
electrical In its effects upon lts hearers. Bellini was
verv good, while Suslnl was In excellent voice. The
capabilities of Ms organ are' variable, which Is the
more to be regretted in an artist of Ms undoubted
talent, and with meanß at his disposal which occa
sionally possess such power and so great a capacity.
Signor Maooaferrl Is a vigorous tenor, with whom
we have been previously tolerably well acquainted.
His voice is, however, very Inferior to Massaml-
Mani’s, who appeared when the troupe were here
some few weeks sinoe. It, however, appeared to be
satis&ctory to the. audience. Oarozri Zuoohl was
very decidedly the great success of the evening.
The oiohestra was somewhat peak, but worked
well under their conductor, Mr. Bergmann, bnt
having had so little Italian opera this season, It
would he somewhat hard to point out deficiencies In
its third, and, as the advertisement Informed us,last
evening. We consequently lay down the pen with
no inconsiderable regret that the operatic season
has come to a close, alter a singularly brief and dis
jointed duration of no more than three nights.
The choral festival of the Trinity Choirfrom New
York, wMch has been arranged to Introduce Master
Bichard Coker, who holds the position of principal
soprano In that church, trill take place on Wednes
day and Thursday next week, as may be seen by a
reference to our advertising columns.
A grand concert and literary entertainment will
take place on Tuesday evening, in aid ef the Draff
Association; at whloh Miss Caroline Blohlngß and
other eminent artists will appear. On this occasion
Miss Etchings will sing the Star-Spangled Banner-
IJfOTUEEB.
This evening, Hiss Emma Hardtnge will deliver
a lecture at the Musical Fund Hall. She Is a ta
lented speaker, and; as this will probably be the
last opportunity of hearing her during the present
season, we recommend all who relish oratory
to. take the present opportunity of attending her
lecture.
Mr. S. Morgan Smith gives select readings and
recitations, at Conaert Hall, to-morrow evening.
The entertainment has been exceedingly well ar
ranged, and we do not doubt will be aB successful
as Mr. Smith could desire, ShakßPeare, Browning,
Whittier, Tennyson, Dickens, Buchanan Bead, ana
Bolter, sre the names upon the programme Whloh
we have just reoolwJi

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
Tie past week has been an eventful one in a business
point of view. The fall of Richmond teems to have
been the turning point Id (he rebellion, and the victories
witoh have followed It up so closely fortify the general
conviction that the day of peace has really dawned.
Trade and commerce show definite elans of revival*and
the prosperity which vis predicted would follow'ihe
close of the war is abont being realiied. Business is
beginning to move in its accustomed channels. Om
leading merchants are boldly meeting the exigencies of
the season by liberal concessions to ibe views of buyers.
The wheels of commerce* once started Into activity,
Will continue to revolve* and will thus gradnaUybrlng
our commercial affairs into a healthy condition. Lower
'prices will create demand and stimulate consumption.
The profits acquired by our merchants during the era of
high prices will be doubtless diminished, but not to any
extent which is likely to embarrass them. The regular
consumption of the country continues about the same
as usual* and the large trade to supply the same affords
ample profit in the future to I hose who are engaged in
it. It is 'therefore" reasonable to aesumb that the worst
to now past* and that better times are in store for onr
business men.
There was a moderate amount of business doing at
the Stock Board on Saturday, and Government loans
ruled at about the previous prices.' The 1881* were firm
at 107%, the 0 20a at' 107, and the 10-403 at 92%. State
securities were held stiffly, and the war loan 8s sold at
101—an advance of 1; the State 8s told at 88#. There
was more inquiry for company bonds, and the sale*
were quite large, at generally batter figures, lit and fid
mortgage Pennsylvania Railroad bonds advanced each
%. -among the sales were Beading 6s at 95%, North
PennsylvaniaSs at 86, Harrisburg 6s at 97, West Chatter
7s at 300, do 8s at 80, Camden and Amboy 6s* ’B3, at 89,
mortgage 6s at 100, and the 6s of '75 at 88%. The share
list showed a continued firmness in prices. Beading
opened &t £O%, but advanced later in the day, closing
at 51%; Pennsylvania Bailro&d advanced %» with sales
at 66%; Philadelphia and Brie sold at 19—an advance of
2s. Camden and Amboy was steady at 130, and Little
Schuylkill at 32%. Theoil stocks were generally quiet
at about previous price*. City passenger railway
shares were rather better, with sales of Second and
Third at 67, and Thirteenth and Fifteenth at 19; 49 was
bid for Fifth and Sixth, 41 for Tenth and Seventh, 30
for Spruce and Pine, 11% for Arch-street, 25for Green,
and Coates, and 22 for Girard College. There,is no
change to notice in bank share*., North America sold
at ISO; 69 was bid for Commercial, 23 for Mechanics*,
215 for Southwark, 43 for Penn Township, 49 for Girard,
and 60 for City; a sale of Kentucky Bank was made at
100. Canal shares are lets active, with sales of Schuyl

Petroleum, like most new discoveries, lias brought
work to the Patent Office, In the last sis months of
1564. thirty patents were issued for boring-drills, de
vices for removing paraffine and other obstructions from
the veins, of the rocks, new methods of pumping and
raising oil. of lining oil barrels, etc., to say nothing of
the aimostcountleis adaptations of petroleam to manu
facturing purposes. There is an endless variety of pro
cesses by which rock- oil is converted into dyes, scents,
etc., and many of these inventions are held secret. A
large number of applications for patents yet remain at
the office unexamined, and fresh applications are con
stantly pouring in, indicating that the present year will
ha even, more prolific of inventions in this lucrative
field than the last.
