Electrical investigation bag proved that the humafff tod? sets on the principle of the galvanic battery..Tb« ( 'brain* mucus and serous membranes, the skin, tissues,,! and fluids, .constitute the negative and positive forces and every action* whether mental of physical* is thej result of these antagonistic forces.

There are, strictly* but two condition*.? of disease—one of inflammation, or positive? the oihhri weak* debilitated, negative; and as Electricity contains* these two conditions in the action of th* positive ahd'* negative current, all we have to do is to neutralize thsi dUtaae and restore proper healthy action. • We do not wish to convey the impression that we all diseases In all couditfons. We cannot cute tloa after the lungs are all destroyed: yet we do'assert, ■ and are prepared io practically demonstrate, that buu«3 dreds of cases of almost every form of chronic pronounced incurable by the best medical praciitionerif;' of the country* have been radically cubed, some of them' in an incredibly short time, by our Electrical; treatment. Its great superiority oyer other practices isy the cure of disease is also attested in the fact that, within? the past five years, over fourteen thousand have been treated at this office, suffering from almoaiS every form and' condition of disease common to hu-% inanity, and In nearly all cates abemflt or perfect cars has been effected. Therefore, with, these FACTS tflp 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* others not here enumerated: ' * 'jf 1* Diseases of the Brain and Nervous System —Epi lepsy, Chorea or St, Y.itus’ Dance, Paralysis (Hemiple gia and Paraplegia), Keuralgia,Hysteria, Palpitation of the Heart, Dock-jaw, etc., etc.; also* diseases of the Eye and Ear. ,4 2.

Almost innumerable, esses have come under treatment at our office who can testify . to this fact. Mrs. B.

L There Is such Brest attraction to a book of travels that It Is cheerfully accepted by the public, even ..when rather Indifferently written, provided that It treats of matters new and-true.- Hence, of late years, narratives of successive explorations, in Af rloa, some of them not very artistically composed, haye obtained great popularity, as can be verified by Harper & Brothers, New York; who have repub lished most of them, including those by Mungo . Park, Bruce, lander, Burton,. Davis, Owen, TJrqu hart, Barth, Gordon Camming, Livingstone, Bald win, Andersson, Reade, Du Chaillu, and Speke. The traveller -who-venturesupon new-ground and. ban give a good account of.what he saw is sure to be popular. - Such a than Is Armlnlus Vdmbbry, mem ' her of the lluifgarlan Academy of Pesth, by whom he : was sent .upon a. SoibnUfle mission Into ahd tbrough Central Asia, : the particular object, he being an eminent philologist, being to asoertato whether the Hungarian language, known to' belong to the Altaic stock; is to be rOlorred to the ; Finnish or the Tartaric branoh,_._To..pEepare him self for his task „he resided, several years in don stanttaople, where residence iBlSAKish houses and frequent visits to Islamite sohoolßand libraries soon transformed-Mm into, a Turk—nay,-into ra Effendl ln this.latter character he went from, the Bos phorus to SamaVcai-d, In Bokhara, taking a horik - eastern route when he Went and a southwestern when-he returned. He travelled not only as a * Hadji, but as a Dervish; rad, though occasionally - Suspected of being an European, succeeded lnea t» oaping the detection which would have" dost, him his ’ Hie, Hle expediUon was performed l in»lSB3, * Un)ohe was 31 !Vears bid; rad we prealine that IS ■ Msj>iaiologickl observations and dlsobvs 15®4 ibr another, publication. His adventures, how "over, occupy over throe-fifths of a handsome octavo volume (pp. 494), republished by. Harpor & Brothers, rad entitled “Travels in Central Asia: being the - account o" a ".Tourney from Teheran across the Tur ’•keman Desert on the eastern Bhore of the Caspian to Khiva;. Bokhara,-and ..Sam&roand, -performed in 1863,” The second portion of the -volume, to the extent of 170 pages, Is devoted to notices concern ing the geography, statistics, politics, and social re lations of Central Asia, subjects hitherto soarceiy, if at ail, touobed on by writers upon that vast and little-known country. The extent of Mr. Vambfi. ry!s journeyingcan be ascertained, at a glance, by looking: at the map which hero accompanies bis 'Narrative, on .which Ms route Is clearly traced. The which' he traversed, the people with whom ho came in contact, the manners which he observed are, as yet, little known, but his narrative not only instruotß, but must in a' manner charm the reader, - forit ls written with Infinite ease; spirit, and sim plicity. If, as we believe, it is his own oompoai : tlon, then Htmgary has produced, In this adven turous scholar and erudite traveller, another per son who has -mastered tho English language more completely than most Englishmen ; of course Kos suth hetog the first. We have read the book through, with great pleasure, and heartily recommend it as an interesting and reliable contribution tb the knowledge of remote lands. Received front'd. B, Lipplncott A Co, “Luttrell of Arran,” by Charles Lever, j ust publish ed by Harper & Brothers, is an Irish novel of const lierable power and unflagging Interest. The hero, who represents an ancient but Impoverished Irish fami ly, Is Introduced as living, wlth hisonly son, in In. hiihmore, one of the Isles of Arras, -washed by'the - Atlantic, on the-northwest coast of Ireland. Poor rad solitary, but proud rad, passionate, Luttrell re minds us o! the leading character in « The Fortunes of'Glencore,”by tiie same author, Kate O’Hara, too, Is partly the reproduction of one or two of Le ver’s favorite women, and Sir Within Wardle, the , retired diplomatist, Is precisely what JMattland, (in “Tony Butler,”) would have been had Ms adven tures been oarried on to ah advanced period. Mc- Ktolay, the. lawyer, is a new, creation, how ever; Grenfell, a parvenu whose fortune has been made by a famous dinner-sauce that bears his name, and thereby keeps him out of fashionable society, and one O’Horke, a regular patriot, who keeps a shebeen on the banks of a. lake in .Donegal, are original also, and drawn with very spirited handling. As for the story, it shifts from Ireland to Wales, thence diverges to France and Italy, Crosses the Mediterranean to Tunis, and closes, In the ac-' oustomed wooing and winning of a fair lady, in the Island ol Saints. What Is more, the lneldents are ' more dramatic than usual, and the dialogue, though occasionally diffuse, is generally natural, always easy, and sometimes even sparkling. The story Is a favorable specimen of Lever’s second style, In Which the dash,.bold action, and.wild Irish fun of - Charles- O’Malley and Harry Lorrequer are suc ceeded by a more didactic manner and more artisti , cal drawing and color. In fact, his early works are • deficient in ’constructive power, though they over •flow with animal spirits, whereas, “Luttrell of Arrau ” ratßol upon tho basis - ~ fee oeived from T.’B. Peter son Sf-Brothers.- - ; ;. The biography of Felt* Mendelssohn Barthoifly, -the great musical composer, written by W. A. Lam padlns, has been translated from the German by ' William Leonard Gage, and has been brought ont, ln a single volume, (to mated Us editions of Men delssohn's Letters,) by Mr. F. LeypoiSt, who, we pOreeive by his Imprint, has now oxtonded his enter prise, as a publisher, to New York. This Is a very 'authentic work,, and has been the basis of nearly alt recent memoirs of Mendelssohn, including that prefixed to Mendelssohn’s “ Letters from Italy and Switzerland,” which the omission of facts places among the curiosities of literature. The fault of the present book Is its brevity. The author has taken great pains to be accurate, but has availed himself only very slightly of Mendelssohn’s letters, chiefly addressed to his family—letters which deve lope and exhibit their writer’s oharaoter so well. Mr. • Gage truly says “it is not the best biography of Mendelssohn that could be written,or Is likely to be for some time. Doubtless,, the time will come when this brief work will be superseded by one more ex. > hanstive j tilt then It remains without a rival.” To the original work Mr. Gage has added snpplementa. ry sketches, personal or oritioal, by Jules Benedict, Ohorley, Bellstab, Bayard Taylor, Storrs "Willis, and, John S. Dwight; A portrait of Mendelssohn, engraved on steel, is given, and the typography is neat. ' The Adventcbbs of a Cobbbspoisdhnt.—Mr. Albert D. Biohardson, an able and well-known war .oorreßpondent of the New York Tribune, has pre pared an account of his remarkable experiences daring the war, which will " shortly be published by Messrs. Hurlbut, Scranton, & Co,, of Hartford. The work will be entitled “ The Secret Service, the Field, the Dungeon, and the Escape,” and will taolude narratives of his secret journeys in the South, his capture, imprisonment, and final escape. ■The'brlef statements which were published at the time of his arrival In the North were read with avidity, and the -public will doubtless take-equal .Interest ta.the full details which are now offered. > THE MAGAZINES. The KorUt American Review, since it became the property of Tioknor & Fields and passed into new editorial hands, is much better than, it had been during the previous ten years. Number 207, com pleting the hundredth volume, has come to hand and oohtains the usual number of articles. Of these, an account of Voltaire’s Besldenee in Eng land and the curious biography oi Jacob and Wil liam Grimm are by far the best—in the former, in deed, new ground is broken. We Cannot say that there is anything new, or partlonlarly good, in the paper upon Wordsworth, -On the'-other hand, an article upon Open Air Grape Culture Is eminently practical and full of Information. The notice of Mr. Everett is brief and slight—not to be compared with the exhaustive article on the same subject in the Rational Quarterly Review, Over fifty pages are devoted to The Philosophy of Herbert Spencer 4-rather a hard nnt to oraok. The poliUoal articles are distinguished by their temperate tone: Their respective subjects are England and America, Free MistouSf, and Keoonstruotion. The oritioal notices of new books, with whioh the volume winds np, are well,worth perusal. Received from W. B. Zieber, South Third street. ; The" last number of the Korth British Review, (Leonard Scott’s New York repnblioatlon,) opens with a pleasant article on the Else .and f>regress of the Scottish Tourist, in which various works of travel in Scotland, from Defoe’s in 1727 to a .certain “ Teddies ”-ln 1864, are made the subject, and a considerable amo\mt of local and literary infor mation, as well as much gossip and anecdote, Is {liven. A chapter on Epigrams follows, also a very hopeful exposition of the present and future of Spain. A dissertation on University Tests will not Interest many American readers, to whom they are unknown. The Topography of Mont Blano, Matthew Arnold’s Essays on Criticism, the Holy Koman Empire, and the late John Leech are also discussed. In the notice of Leech, the great artist Of Punch, a great deal is detailed of that remarkable hebdomadal,and its principal contributors. In the British edition of the Review several wood outs from Punch, illustrative of the various moods and gifts of John Leech are given; the Amerloan publishers omit them with a curt notioe that “the cost of re engravlsg these cuts is altogether-too’ great to allow of their repript.” Eecelved from W.

Vancey, who Was Indeed the' man to set the ball la motion, was young; but Davis, Lee, Hunter, Wise, Tocmbe, Slidell, Mason, and others most prominent, are past middle life. No man for insurrection dr revolution should be over forty, and ho Is better for such work If under thirty. ‘Thebestof our generals —Grant, Sherman, Lyons, Sheridan, ted.others— have been young men. Sheridan, who has proved himself as smart as any of them, is only thirty three ; and sort e,; many years hls juniors, have won great names in this war. So It is and ever has been tbe world oyer. On the other hand, men seldom begin to think profoundly and maturely till they have reached middle life. Lord Macaulay says that« of all the good books now extant in the world, more than nineteen-twentieths were-puhilshed after the writers had attained the age of forty.” We get action from the pressure of youthful blood, as we do power from an engine by the force of the steam, but for ripe thought there must be ripeness of intellect.

The present Ohevets are the third genera tion and the grandchildren of the founder of the house. Their grandfather was a horticulturist at Bagnolet, near Paris,when the Bevolutlon occurred. He was singularly successful to the cultivation of roses. The famous Bose du Rei was discovered by him, and, as the Princess de Lamballe was his zealous patroness, he was able to present it to Louis XVI. He was devotedly attached to the royal family, and when Marie Antoinette was a prisoner to the Temple he continued to send her daily a nosegay. This, however, did not last long. One morning he wee summoned to appear before a Commissary of Seotlon, who said: “ You cultivate rpras at Bagnolet 1” “ Yes, citizen,” “ Yon invented a rose which bears your name—la Ohevette—to perfume lee ci dement,” “To sell to them who pay citizen.”' “Very well. I appoint you executioner—at Bagnolet and Trianon. Go and gutllottoe all the roses at both those places. Destroy thbm, cut them down with scythes, trample them under foot, burn them that the earth may be Heed from those aristocrats of vegetation. The people want bread and not roses. Off with ye, and to place of fiiowers plant potatoes. If you have not destroyed all the roses to four and twenty hours I will send for you and—a word to the wise is suffi cient, eh l” It was -sufficient- for Ohevet. He de stroyed his roses, turned kitchen gardener, opened agargotte (low eating hoUse), and became even more successful as a cook than he was as a florist, Hotratoed his son up to the same oaUing, The latter became one of the very best oooks in France, and made an immense fortune. He was offered $25,000 a year to take charge of the Hotel du Lou vre and deollned it. Three years afterwards he dropped dead on his chair just after dinner. He was fond of high living and it brought on apoplexy, the disease of students and gourmets! two classes of men not often found keeping company together.

An active competition has set In for relics of tbo war, and prices are rapidly going up. The State -and municipal Governments are ambitious for camion, torpedoes, and bunting, and will probably monopolize these articles, leaving tha smaller relics to be divided up among individuals. The rush lOr Confederate notes is prodigious, and the printing presses In Mew York and this city are striking off improved specimens of the; real article, whloh find a ready sale among the Crowd of tourists and curiosity hunters In the South. It Is said that enterprising Yankees are forming a com pany In Waterbury, Connecticut, to snpply the active demand that Is likely to take place for flattened bullets and buttons, and patches of Con federate gray. This relic business was supposed to have been brought to perfection In Italy and Borne, where choice old specimens of the classic era .and limbs of saints are manufactured to suit every taste, and are sold at prices that realize fortunes to the speculators. It will probably be reserved for Yankee Ingenuity to eclipse even the Italian masters In this enterprise. Of qne,thing, however, we may rest as sured, that all the necessary steam and machinery appliances will be'set inmotlon to render the supply equal to the demand, The relic hunters may there* • fore, take courage—there will be “ curiosities” enough and to spare for all.

Our agony ie over, and peace indeed dawns, Hone ever doubled the ability and prowose of our armies ; all lelt that victory was theirs, though the day might be long delayed. ■ In every war the chief cause of anxiety, the means of success or of defeat, after all, Is the Treasury. When the purse is empty, and the national credit con sequently weakened, It la hoping against hope to expect success. National min foEows in the wake of a depicted treasury. The Confederacy was long ago lost because the finances were undermined; and the credit of the rebel States, even with their best friends in Kurland, was nearly worthless. The rebel bonds ware dishonored in England many weeks’ago’, and they will scarcely, sell for the usual price of waste paper When the news of Lee s surrender reaches the earg'orKntland. Onr bonds have commanded a pro nrium among the people during the four years of our war. If ihe. Treasury experienced entanglements at times, they were only, temporary. Involving no serious embarrassments to the trade of the country, and causing no difficulties that a few days did not entirely remove. The Secretary .of tha Treasury has always been master . of the situation, and never appealed to the hanks of the country or to .the people that he was not instantly an swered.
