Thd cteamship Jamcj L. Day, Capt. Wood, arrived last evening from Vera Cruz, having left there the evening of the 5th but. She ((topped at the Brazos, bat did not communicate with the shore. Among the passengers on the Day, wero Ma jor Iturbidc, prisoner of war, and Lieut. Sears, 8d Artillery, bearer of despatches to Washington. Gem Scott’s despatches* left Mexico between the 13th and 15th of October, escorted by a spy company of Mexican lancers, 100 strong, under command of Col. Durainguez. The company left Pncbta the evening of the 19th and were at tacked the same night by a strong force under Gen. Torrejon. Shortly after they were at tacked by Col. Viunos. In the two engagements they lost fifteen of their number, but suppose they killed at least ten times that number. They re turned to Puebla and Gen. Lane placed the des patches in the hands of his adjutant geucrnl, Lieut Sean, who came down with his Mexican escort to Vera Cruz, hut accompanied os far as Plan del Ilio by the first Pennsylvania Regiment, under Col. Wynkoop, Capt Loyali's Georgia mounted men, and three companies of artillery. The American portion oftho escort halted at Plan del Rio and were to return with Gen. Patterson. Lieut. Sears reached Vera Cruz in the night of the 4th Inst, accompanied by Capt George Tay lor, 2d Artillery, Lieut. Lear, 4th Infantry, and Lieut. Hills, 1st Pennsylvania Regiment, on their way home on furlough. Lent. Henderson. Louisiana Volunteers, came down to join his company. About eighty discharged soldiers also canto down. The Mexican spy company is described ns a rough looking set of men. They fight with ropes rnnnd their necks as the saying is, and therefore fight gallantly. Col. Dominguez is thought to kuow the road intimately, from long experience upon the lino in a different capacity. We under stand that wc have altogether about 450 of this description of force in our pay. Of the detach ment which came down with Lieut Scars, one of the officers lost an arm by the way, and two oth ers wereseverely wounded. An American dis charged soldier, who came down with them, told our correspondent that they fought most gallant- iy- Gen. Lane remains at Puebla, retaining oil the command he took up with him. A circular order from Gen. Scott directs a garrison of 750 men to be stationed at the National Bridge, 1200 dt Jnla- pa, nnd 2000 at Puebla—the last two points under command of general officers. Gen. Cushing has been assigned by Gon. Patterson to the command at Jolapa. Gen. Patterson had reached the Na tional Bridge on the morning of the 4th inst. with all his force, having been entirely unmolested up on the route. Gen. Lane’s | command is quartered in tho heart of^Peulla, the General occupying the Palace. Santa Anna was at Tepuacan on the 26th ult. He had given up the idea of going to Orizaba os he had proposed. The guerrillas ore quarreling among them- ■ slves. The Rainbow says; “It appears that Jar- auto’* band have declared Col. Cenobio to be a traitor to them and to his country ; that he is leag ued with the Americans, and even supplied by them with arms and ammunitions for the purpose of destroying his brother bandits. After much talking they have at length proceeded to blows 5 and in one engagement, tis said that Jnrauta was victorious, and that thirty of Cenobio’s men were killed." Later accounts confirm the above, but say that only twenty were killed and that Jnrauta was shot through the leg. Papers of Jalapa of a prior date had said that Jaranta had withdrawn from the field to attend to his religious duties. Unnumm legislature.—The legislator* havo completed the election of the three judge* oftho supremo court. Messrs. W.* B. Turley (dem, was re-elected for tho western district ? N. Gray (wbigL RobL J. re-elected for the middle district s' and [cKinnoy (whig} was elected judge of the supreme court for Bari Tennessee.—Hid. We are obligingly informed by the mail agent from Richmond, that Mr. Riddle has arrived this evening, as express, with despatches forthe gov ernment. Report says the despatches are from Puebla.—Ibid. Another Curiosity tw Miniature.—We have had the honor of a visit, this ovening, ftotn Major GeneAl Hancock, a dwarf from North Carolina. He is two inches higher than his celebrated com- fnrt Tom Thumb, but weighs two pounds less. He is twenty-threo years old, and about ton years older than General Thumb-well formed, agreea ble in manners, and smart aud prompt in his an swers. He dances the Polka nnd other fashion able dances. The Major General has been ex hibited in Now York and Philadelphia to full houses, and will mako his debut in this city on Monday or Tuesday next.—Ibid. SAVANNAH. _ WEDNESDAY MORNING. NOv7l7, 1847. Sg&ggH 15^* The following resolution offered by Jos. S. Fay, Esq., was accidentally omttied in tho proceedings of the Public Meeting held at the Exchange on Monday. lit sol ted, That tho Hon. Thomas Butler King be invited to join tho delegation from this city to Uie Convention at Atlanta. Offlclnl Despatches. The Washington Union of Saturday night, re ceived last night, has nearly thirteen columns fill, cd with official despatches, with details of the bat tles of Contreras and Clmrubusco. Among the names of the heroic men, who on these fields have elicited the admiration of their country, wo find the names of the following offi cers, especially known to our citizens: Capt. Wayne, of the Quarter Master’s Depart ment, attached to Gen. Scott’s Staff; Captaiu Mackall, Assistant Adjutaut General, of General Worth’s Staff: Capt. Ilurdec, of Col. Harney’s Brigade of Cavalry; Lieut. Coppee, of the Artil lery! with Surgeon J. M. Cuylcr, who, ;is men tioned by Gen. Twiggs, was particularly active in administering to the comfort of tho sick und wounded, for “ tho admirable (medical) Corps spent tiie entire night exposed to the pitiless storm, in dressing the wounded and in alleviating their sutferings.’’ But wc cannot now say more of these gallent men who have written their glorious deeds on the history of their couutry, for our columns arc already occupied. CJen. Twiggs. Tho compliment paid by the Democratic Re presentatives in Milledgevilleto this gallant soldier and distinguished officer, by casting their ballots for him, as U. S. Senator, is nobly earned, and m ist be sensibly appreciated. It is tantamount to saying to the Hero of Cerro Gordo,ifyou were a nong us, onco moro the simple citizen of Gcor- g a, and the Democratic party had the nscondency in the State, tliore is no office in their gift which ttoy would not bo ready to bestow upon you. At once the nbleolficor, the intelligent gentleman, the enlightened politician, he has been a distin guished honor to our State, already honored in the name and memory of his father. The compli ment was appropriate, well-timed, and graceful'. Naval. The U. S. storeship Fredonia, Lieut. Comd’g. Turner, W days from Vera Cruz, arrived at New York on the morning of the 12th inst. She has 90 sick and disabled seamen; 2 died on the pas* •age. The following are the officers of the F:— Thomas Turner, Lt. Commanding; John Hast ings, Passed Asa’t 8urgeon; R. Fairfax, Acting Master; Thomas A. Fillebrown, David Coleman, and L. C. Sawyer, Midshipmen; Walter Clifton, Captain's Clerk. Passengers—Lieut Henry Moore; Passed Midshipmen H. Arnold, and Wil. Him N. Jeffers; John McLeod Murphy, Midship man; 3d Ass’t Engineer, Joseph D. Alexander. The U. 8. ship Macedonian, at New-York, which has just returned from her mission to Ire. 'and, has been hauled up alongside of the dock or the purposo of being refitted. The brig Dol phin, lately returned from a cruise on the African /oast, has been completely dismantled, and is to be laid op for winter quarters. The ship Ply. month is rbo being refitted for service. The United States sloop of war Decatur, Com- mandcr Pinckney, from Pensacola, abont the 14th ult., arrived below Boston on Thursday. The U. 8. steamer Iris, Commander 8. B Wil son, five days from Norfolk, bound to Pensacola, put into Charleston, Sunday, to repair damage to engine, having experienced some rou«h weather in the Gulf. The following is a U«t of her officers: Commander—Stephen B. Wilson. Lieutenants—W. L Herndon, H. T. Wingate. Passed Assistant Surgeon—Wm. B. Sinclair. Master—Frederick B. Brand. Midshipmen—L. H.

Scott, up to the 18th of September, have been received this evening by tho Secretary of War. They are very voluminous. They appear to the official reports of Gen. Scott of tho several ac tions which have takcu place,with the subrepoi ts. It is impossible to give any thing from them for the “Uuion" to-night.—Washington Union, 12th inst. Some uneasiness has recently been felt about the illness of Gov. James McDtpVell, member of ike House of Representatives of the U. Stater. W* are now happy to state that a letter has this day been received from him,dated on the 8th inst. from Lexington, Vo., ip which he says that he had ho far recovered as to be able, he hoped, to leave home for Washington on the 15th (next Mon- * day.)—/bid. Our Georgia IJoyn. We have the pleasure of stating that Captain Loyal has not been killed, ns he halted at Plan del Rio, with his troop, n part of the escort of Lieut. Sears, hearer ofdespntches. At the battle ofHuatuantla our loss was 13 kill ed and 11 wounded, all with the exception of 3, of Capt. Walker’s Company. The enemy lost 150. Lieut. Anderson, Georgia Volunteers, and Lieut. B. F. .McDonald (son of Ex-Gov. .McDon ald,) of the 3d Artillery, are among the distin guished at Huamnntln. Lieut. Anderson suc ceeded in capturing Col. La Vega and Major Iturhide. Lieut. McDonald went forward into the town with nu order from the General, previous to the entry of the reinforcements. He was accompu- nied by Mr. Bradley, Quarter Master. They were surrounded by lancers, but filially escaped. When Santa Anna saw that Gen. Lane designed to capture his artillery, he immediately sent two or three of his Aids, with a strong force, to bring it off, if not already lost, or recapture it, if taken. In the execution ofthis order. Major Iturhide, who was afterwards made a prisoner, came dash ing towards the town in a furious gallop. At the same time Lieut. McDonald, of the Artillerv, was spurring ahead of our troops towards the same point. Both officers rode for sonic distance with in hail of each other, and a desperate and exciting race was kept up between them, until Lieutenant .McDonald's horse stumbled and fell, when Itur- bide pnshi d forward and gained the town. He. however, arrived too late to bring off all the artil lery, and was soon captured by Lieut Anderson Walker’s Men, The spirit of Walker, now dead, has been in fused into his surviving men. Ilis company (now Captain Ford’s) drove the valiant Gen. Ilea (a soldier of Napoleon) at the head of a large force before them at Atlixco, with the loss of a few wounded, (one—Bernard Rork, since duad.) A Mexican in tho notion writes to his father tint “the Americans arc invincible, and with ex aggeration the attack which they made appeared to me the day of judgment." Hear him. 4 . 4 Sntttn Anna. The principal rumor, referring to tho wherea bouts of Santa Anna, is that ho had lied from the country, having embarked on board an English vessel at Old Tampico. Another account is,that lie U a prisoner by his own people, and will bo tried. 13P It is said that some of die Mexican Caval ry use poisoned lances. No quarter will be shown such warriors. KT Capt. Geo. Taylor, 3d Artillery, (oh fur lough,) and Capt. De Hart, 2d Artillery, havo ar rived at New-Orleans. ry*The remains of die Gnliunt Walken, nnd his faithful servant David, are in die Ca«de of Perote, and will bo forwarded to the United States. The gallant ’Captain was a native of Maryland. C5T* Gen. Pattersox, with his imposing train, reached tho National Bridge on the morning of the 4th inst., where it halted for the night. IJ e will leave a portion of his command at Jalapa to keep its treacherous inhabitants in check- Mr. J«k*> Keralntloa. The greatest interest will be felt in the result of Mr. Jones’ movement in the House of Represen tatives, calling upon'^or. Crawford to give his ; jreqsons for foe appointment of tho two Lieuten* ant Colonels, now in command of the Battalions fVom this State.' A perusal of that portion of his late Excellency’s message, referring to this matter, will show most conclusively, that ho will find it no cosy matter to escape from the trap ho has sot for himself. Tho great, nay, the only reason with the least shadow of plausibility about it, which he urges in support of his course, is that one com pany of die mounted, and sovcral of the foot bat talion, had already left the State. Mr. Jones will have evidence sufficient to show, that in tho case of tho former, Capt. Goulding’s company had crossed over tho Chattohooche river under some what rctuarkablo circumstances, had proceeded but a few miles into Alabama, and could readily have mounted their chargers and returned on an hour’s notice to Georgia, to deposit their votes for Lt. Col. But even if tho circumstances had been such as they aro represented by die lato Gover nor, could not dio elections have been held clsc- whc(9 than in Georgia for tho commanding ofii cert of bodi battalions l it not, why? Because die laws regulating the elections of field officers docs not allow it? But die law docs not allow tho Governor to appoint, and die spirit of the law, beyond all question is, diat tho mon shall elect their own commanders. Which of the two cour ses is tho greatest infracdon of thc'luw, for dio Governor to appoint an officer, when die law re quires dmt he should he elccte/l by his own men, or for the election to take place out of Georgia? Tho former defeats die end, and object, and spirit oftho law! The latter secures them all! The former is the exercise of arbitrary power! Tiie latter secures to the members of tho battalions their lawful rights. Elections for commissioned officers in the vol unteer Regiments nre constantly held ill the field. Tho Colonel of die lato second Tennessee Reg iment was elected ou the Rio Grande, aud die law of Tennessee in reference to these elections is similar to our own. A number of the officers of tho late Georgia Regiment were elected iu Mexico, and they were none die less respectable, none die less efficient, because they had not been benignanUy smiled on by his departed Excellency. It is die constant custom to hold elections to fill vacancies iu the volunteer regiments, after diose regiments ore are already in tho field; nnd the pretext set up by Governor Crawford for the ex ercise of n most arbitrary nnd undulcgated power is feeble and ridiculous iu the extreme. Sonic of his political friends seem to be of opinion (judging from the columns of yesterday’s Repub lican) that Mr. Jones' resolution will simply servo to give him amusement. If Ins lute Excel lency can extract anything like amusement from tho sturdy blows which are about to be indicted upon his back, he must be possessed of a philo sophy which would do credit to Diogenes him* self. We arc firm in the couvicUoii that ere this session is over he will he shown up in tho light of the greatest “man of straw" of dio day; whose reputation for intellect is among the emptiest of soap-lmbbles, and who, from the amount of flat tery bestowed upon him by die Whig presses, and which would havo been bestowed on any other individual, under the same circumstances, has been induced to follow the example of the frog ii die fable nnd pull’himself up until helms burst.— We shall take occasion hereafter to refer to somo parts of his late message, which do hut little credit to his financiering abilities; not because we con sider him nn object ut which it wero worth while to discharge an arrow, fallen as ho is, hut b'o- atise wc hold tho Whig party responsible for tho acts of their own espocial Governor, aud are dis posed to show to dio people what a magnificent humbug Gov. Crawford’s financiering adminis tration has been. In the moan time he could not have fallen into hands better fitted to tear him to pieces, nnd to give his fragments to tho winds, than those of Mr. Jones; whose strong, prac tical mind and rafe judgment would never havo allowed him to plucc his foot upon ground that could not sustain him, and whose searching eye will look clearly through tho shallow pretexts of aniusincero man, to the real motives which lie beneath diem. It is to he seen whether the Whigs in discarding Crawford, will bo likewise anxious to do their duty to tho State by repudiating this assumption of power on the part of die State Ex ecutive, and by refusing to countcuunce nu unpar donable infraction of the law. No politicians nre louder than they against the exorcise of Execu tive audiority. The veto power of die President must be restricted in order to suit their views and feelings. When it shall appear, therefore, dint a Governor, seated iu his arm chair at Milledgcviile, has deprived men who arc enduring the hardships of die field, of their legal rights, has selected dieir officers for diem, has broken the law of the State, has infringed die Republican spirit which con trols all of our elections, and which gives to the volunteer the right of selecting his commander, it is to be hoped diat there will be no difference of opinion between Whig and Democrat, and that the Ex-Governor will recoive such a rebuke as his conduct richly deserves. From MillcrigcTillr. [Correspondence of the Savannah Georgian.] MILLEDGEVILLE, Nov. 15. Gentlemen-—I had designed sending yon a co py from the Journal of Saturday last, of certain resolutions presented to tho Senate by Mr. W. J. Johnson, consisting of a preamble and resolutions highly complimentary to the veterau Brigadier General David E. Twiggs, of tho United States’ Army, and requesting his Excellency the Gover nor to procure and present to that officer, an ele gant Sword, as a testimonial of respect and gra titude of the State of Georgia,for tho distinguish ed services of her native son—but I have been unable to retain tho uso oftlie Journal long enough to copy them. If nothing happens to prevent, I will do so in time for the next mail. •Mr. Wales moved to refer them to a committee of five, which was lost; the resolutions wero then unanimously agreed to. Resolutions were also offered by the same Sen ator, Mr. W. J. Johnson, requesting his Excel lency, the Governor, to transmit to the Senate, a copy of all the documents, reports of Commis sioners, Physicians, and other papers relating to tho Lunatic Asylum, made within tho last two years. Mr. Moon offered a resolution, requesting the Governor to furnish the Senate with a copy o 1 ’ the Report of the Coimuittco appointed by the Governor to examine, assess, nnd roport upon the value of the raw material belonging to tho Peni tentiary. Also another calling for information relative to the school located ut Cone Springs, Floyd County, for tho instruction of the iudigent deaf dumb, and blind. On motion of Mr. Forman, the Senate took up tho resolution of Mr. Marks in relation to import ing slaves into this State, and ou motion of Mr. Chastain it was laid on the table for the present. Mr. Forman • presented the memorial of E. H. Bacon, in relation to a Compilation of the Laws of Georgia, which was referred to a select Com mittee, consisting of Messrs. Forman, Clayton, Glenn, Reese, and Terrell. A message was received from the Governor, transmitting to tho Senate a communication from the Secretary 0 f War, requesting the passage of an aet ceding to the United States jurisdiction of a site selcclcd .for a fortification at Cumberland Bound. Also, that he had approved and signed a reso lution appointing Thursday tho 25th inst, a day or Prayer and Thanksgiving. In the House of Representatives, the proceed ings previous to the election for U. S. Senators, seem not to have been important. Several local bills were introduced, chiefly to change names and so forth. Mr. Freeman, tho order, on his motion, being suspended,introduced a; resolution requesting the Governor to inform the Honse what has been the average amount of expenses--of the Legislature from the first Monday iu November, 1834, to the first Monday in November, 1845, including the costs of the acts and journals—and also what was the expense of tho last session of the Legislature^ including the costs of the acts and journals. The resolution was agreed to. Mr. Baugh introduced a bill to incorporate the Gainesville Rail Road Company, with power to construct a Rail Rond from Atlanta, or some con venient point in De Kalb Couuty, to Uie town of GainesviUo, in Hall Co. Mr. Qtiarterman—a Bill to appropriate a part of the Poor School Fund of 1847, to the County of Liberty, &c. Mr. Betlmue—To incorporate the Grand Divi sion oftho Sons of Temperance in this State. The Ilousd passed a resolution requiring 150 copies oflhe papers relative to the Florida boun* dary to bo printed. Mr. Gnrtrell, of Wilkes, introduced o Bill to incorporate die 44 Washington Rail Road Com pany,” with power to construct a Rail Road from Washington, Wilkes County, to the depot of Uie Central Rail Road,known as Tennil!e,or to some other convenient point on said Road. Capita] stock $500,000, divided into shares of $100 each. This hill was introduced and read this morning. It is just time to close, and so I bid you a hasty atlieu * AMANUENSIS. (Correspondence nf (lie Savannah Georgian.) NEW YORK, November, 1847. To the Editors of the Georgian : Dear Sirs:—In this “progressive age" when the telegraph and steam have nearly annihilated time and space, it seems almost preposterous to at tempt giving news in a letter, particularly as ev ery city newspaper has its “own correspondent,” and Uio “city items" generally absorb all of a lo cal character—however, an “Idler" about such a town as this, if lie keeps what sailors call the “weather eye open," will pick up many an “item" that docs not find its way into the newspapers,— and by Uie way, what a change has Liken place in the “press" of Uiis city during the past twenty five years, (Uie scope of my recollection;) look hack to Uie days of John Lang and Amos Butler, Two worthier men were never connected with tho “press;” they were, as far as regards this city, the Fathers of Bulletins; in their palmy days “ex tras” were rare, and penny papers uuknown, then it was an “active exertion” to board Uio last arri val from Europe by means of a small boat and a pair of sculls, in the bay, before tho ship reached the wharf—those were Uie duys when a inan on his way to dinner or tea, would get tho “latest intelligence” from the BulleUufor the amusement and edification of family or friends—Uio quid nunc’s ‘‘occupation’s gone," Uie news-boy, with Uio “extra Herald" has distanced him—n quar ter of a century ! The only papers of that day iu this city which have survived, aro the Evoning Post and Commercial Advertiser, aud, I believe, the Price Current. Of editors and publishers, tho only ones remaining iu tho business arc Francis Hall of the Commercial, Thomas Snowden, un attache of Uie Courier and Enquirer, and Win. B. Townsend, of the Express. Major Noah, yet lude and hearty, confines his labors to the Sunday Times. I often meet, in my rambles, Charles Holt, now on octogenarian, and I presume Uie oldest editor iu these parts. In his day he was a man of some note, having while editor of a paper in the black-cockade times of the elder Adams, been imprisoned for a libel ou Uie then cxisdng Government—although Mr. IJ. has ceased his connection with Uio press, yet as a relic of Uie past, his appearance nnd conversation are inter, esting. Another reminiscence of the press is a news carrier—twenty five years ago he was a car. rier, and still sen es his route apparently as active as ever—he has accumulated n handsome proper ty by patient industry—but then he is a Scotch* man. A Yankee would have been a proprietor ere Uiis. New York is putting on its winter costume— the note of preparation for an amusing winter is loud. .Music appears to be the “star ascendant." We New Yorkers really labor under the delusion that we possess a musical taste; but bless our un sophisticated selves, 'tis no such Uiing—lift the curtain, nnd what do you 6ce t—crowds rushing nightly at 25 cents a head to hear the EUiiopian Sereuaders" or Christy Minstrels—look at the genteel crowd at the “Broadway Casino," where glees and songs arc performed for Gj cents admis sion—or at rintaux’s for what yon choose to dis pense iu the way of “drinks;” but legitimate Opera—that is another thing—it costs something —and hence is not patronized as it should be.— Madame Bishop’s troupe recently closed nn en gagement at the Park, it was without doubt the most effective company ever got together here, yet it barely paid expenses. If ever Madam Bishop visits Snvunnah, you will hear the best singer that has as yet appeared in America—and see the handsomest’ woman on the stage. The Concerts of Ilerz and Sivori are no criteria of “musical taste," for as they’have introduced the Parisian clncquer system, there is no telling who pays nnd who does not. Tho new Opera House is nearly finished, but the mauagers are already in trouble and law suits. It is easy to foresee the fuilure of the speculation. I will give you nn item of news. The U. S. store-ship Supply, Lieut. Coin’dt Wm. F. Lynch] will sail from hero iu a few days for the Medi terranean. Sho takes out a party of Naval Of ficers forthe purpose of exploring aud surveying the Dead Sea. This scientific corps is to bo un der the command of Lieut. Lynch. Lieut.

I can only wonder that.such an infamous publication has been suf fered to exist so long. I hope the time is not far distaut when “forbearance will cease to be a vir tue." Our new Steamers are progressing. The “Herman" will bo ready early in January, os also the “United States." The frame of the war Stea mer at our Navy Yard, is np, and several others at the various ship yards. I learn that Mr. Sloo has disposed of his contract for the Southern Mail Steamers, to George Law, Esq. of tins city. But little progress has been made os yet, with this The case of Prime, Ward & Co. has caused' mnch conversation in business circles,bat as their position will be defined in a few days before one pf onr courts, it is useless to speculate where the Law is abont.'? The •Restell affair ti nearly brought to a closo bat if it depends upon the testimony produced on the {rial to prove what the prisoner’s counsel (Mr. Brady) yesterday told the jury Was neces- •ary then I think this notorious woman will capo. An impression seems to have gone forth that very many respectable families in this city are in the power or Restell. This is false; for I have it from the best authority, that not a single family or person having the smallest claim to re spectability, has been implicated. Timo was when we looked to the South for all our murders'! how wo do them up here two at a time, and in one case it has taken our “City Fa thers" a week to offer a reward for the apprehen sion oftlie murderers.

Among the first thoughts suggested by the re- markable discoveries iu Galvanism wero those regarding its relation to .Medical Science. CAN IT AID IN THE ALLEVIATION OF DIS EASE ? In replying to this question we answer it unhesitatingly in the affirmative. Galvanism lias been found oftlie utmost advantage in many diseases, nnd the beneficial results with which its application has been followed iu numerous and most uffiicting cases, aro described os apparently miraculous. When every means has been tried without success, and tho last lingering ray of Hope has departed, the wretched sufferer has been res tored through its influence to comparative health, comfort and happiness. The fact is peculiarly applicable to those terrible and prevalent disor ders called.YcrroMs Complaints, iu which medicine is ofso feeble avail ;being often entirely useless— as in cases of confirmed Dyspepsia, Paralysis, Tic Dolorcaux, llronchitis, Chronic Rheumatism, Nervous Headache, and many others.

Many distinguished Physicians have had the can dor to acknowledge the wonderful efficacy of Dr. Christie’s discoveries, and to aid in the extension of their benefits. Tho following has been volun tarily given from 0110 of the most distinguished physicians in Boston, Mass. “FOR ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN. “I, the undersigned, without the least hesitation do feel warranted iu asserting that the Galvanic articles, invented by Dr. A. II. Christie, contain very valuable properties, particularly in cases of Spinal. Complaints, Spasmodic Contractions, and Irritations of the Nerres, also in cases of Apoplexy and Epileptic Fits. They have been used by many of my patients, who have received essential bene fit from them. I have conversed with many who hav« llfiflrirpil tn inn llmir tinrlni.1 no.<fi,l n .. An e declared to me their perfect confidence ii them, especially in Rheumatic affections. ! - not unlikely,as Rheumatism is certainly a disease of the nervous character, and it is in some myste rious connection with the nerve* of the human system, that the remarkable efficacy of these ar ticles is owing. Although I cannot explain the rationale of tiie benefit of Christie’s inventions, still so manv authentic cases have come under my notice, that, were I otherwise disposed, I must gi\*e in—for "seeing is believing." The science of Physiology has many extraordinary fucts to be explained, and these new medical discoveries aro among the most strnuge and important. J. B. McMaho.v, m. d." Boston, Aug. 23,1847.
