"Prom among the thousand cf Testimonials to the extraordinary CoraHve power of thoße Galvanic Appliances, -we extract tl>e following as being horonch'y reliable: — TO THE EDITOR O"F THK " CHRISTIAN WORLD " Sir,— Knowing 'ha* your valuable Journal has cvpr been a medium of rtniftsr eonfl, not on'yto the semis of m?n, hut slsn to tbe!r bodies, as evinced by the great interest you have ever tafeon in thp benevolent movements of the dny, T havp taken the liberty to address yon upon a subject which often appears in your advertisinc columns, but which I fear, either through icrnomncc of its great value, or the fenr of being duped, is overlooked by a very largo number of your readers. I allude to mpdical galvanism, as applied for the cure of disfase, bnt irore especially that system of Self-application invented by Mr Pulvermacher. Many of thp ensep which have come before roe have been treated for months, htjc! some for years, by mpn of undoubted ability and skill ;n the medical pro fession, who have ttifceu t>>p utmost pains, and ex hausted every resource oi the apothecary in vain, have boon eu'c* by Pulv.-rmacher's system in v 'ew ■weeks I -will not'say that every case hns mrt with like results, but I do affirm tint the proportion of succes* wh'ch hni attended my feeble efforts diu-irc the last two or throe years would be sufficient to establish a first-elasg refutation for anymec!lo*l mi", especially considering that nearly all the patients hafl bpen rmWer sr^od medical treatment, and many of them had been siven up as hopeless. Will you allow me to recite a f<>w facts ? NEURALGIA. Kftepn monthß since I lent a ins 6d batifl to <l lady ■who had been a CT^at BTifffrer from nft'Tsalou for four months. She stated tnat nhp hnd been und«r the care of two ernirent meclical men (who9" names pho pave), but. that she bar! not obtained the smallest r"lief; she hid not been sble to trft. one hour's sound Bleep for many wreks: that phe was almost in dis ■ traction from the conatint sevprity of th« pain I placed thft bund upnn h?r h"ad, rpqupstinp; her to wear it till *he pain ceased. I called nnon h"r a wpc.-v after, when she exDressed her deep prraiitn^e for my kindne's, Ptatinf? that she was entirely free from wn, and. har! slept poundly all niafbt for sevor.il nights, and that her Btrenc+.h was rapidly recovering. NERVOUS "DEBTLTTY. Last summer a gentleman wro'e to me from Hor tiury complaining of great norvoufl debility and prostration. He had tried medical aid in vMn. Hp feared hisaffp was against him, beincr near 70. but if 1 thonpht there was hope he would try. I advised him to try the 60s combined band. He did not re ceive »ny great benefit for several trials, wrote me one or two despairing letters, but I encouraged him to persevere T beard nothing of bim from October ■until sis weeks since, when he wrote me a letter ex pressing Hs Rratitudo in no measured terms, stating that ho was quite recovered ; that he h»d pnjoyeri the beat winter's health during the last winter which he had known for many years. RHEUMATISM. Thirteen months aero I met ra well-known and Wghly respectable solicitor of *his town, walking at a very feeble race, as if in great pain, with a staff in one hand and the. other hand stretched out as sHff a* If it haa nfither life nor power. I took the liberty to stop him and assk the nature of hi? comp'aint. He informed me that h« was a great sufferer from rheu matism, which extended from the shoulders to the tip of his fmo-ers, causing his arm to become quite Stiff; that he had received the best medical advice, got no relief, but waß in great pain night and day. I strongly advised to him try a galvanic band, which he ultimately desired I would obtain for him. It rea-.hed from the shoulder to the palm of the hand, coiled all round the arm. Ten days after he com menced to wear it he called upon mo. placed the afflicted arm over his shoulder with perfect case, ex claiming, " Thanks to you, Seasrer; you arc a capital doctor." In throe months he was perfectly recovered, and has had no return of the malady WEAKNESS IN LOINS. Last October a minister wrote me from Rugby, Stating that he suffered severe pain, 'attended with great weakness in the loins and legs, so that he could, not rise from his chair or walk anywhere without help. I advised him to get a spine" bund for the loins and a narrow one for "the legs. He wrote to me a few weeks ago. expressing hi? warmest gratitude, and stating that in three weeks from the time he com menced to wear the bauds he was so far recovered a3 O rise and walk anywhere without help. INDIGESTION. About the same time a farmer residing at Buckle sham—a gentleman well-kno^n in this neighbourhood —called to seek my advice. He staged that his diges tion was 30 weak that his stomach rejected the simplest diet, even a bowl of milk from his own dairy (which of course was minus the chilk), that he often felt as he fihnuld fall on the fields from sheo* faintness as he went about. I recommended him to try tbe 603 combined band. He called again in six weeks, thanked me most, heartily, and declared that he felt physically a new man. To use his own words, he said: "I have no trouble to eat my food, or to get about anywhere, for I feel as if I had a new stamina SCIATICA. Six weeks since one of the principal tradesmen of his town, well-known to nearly every inhabitant, crawled into my house with great difficulty upon a crutch and a staff. He was In such great pain as to make it difficult for him to rehearse his case. At last he informed me that he had been treated for sciatica by a highly respectable physician whom he named, but that he had candidly assnred him that he feared he was beyond the reach of reedicine. and advised him to try galvanism ; an<l that he had also recom mended him to seek my advice as to the bet mode of treatment, I obtained for him a suitable bund,which he at once commenced to wear, and in a fortnight he cast away his crutches, and can now walk erect, and attend to his business. He told me a few days since that he had no pain now ; only a little weakness remained, which he hoped would soon pass off ; and that he was just preparing to go a journey of several hundred miles. NEURALGIA. M.B, Norwich Road. Ipswich—About ten months since a poor womsn called upon me, stating that his wife had long been a grsvious sufferer from Neuralgia, ik the Temples and Face. He said the pain was so severe, and her groans so piteous, that his life was quite miserable. I adviaed him No 2 Band, but he said that unfortunately he had boon out of work for six weeks, and could not raise more than two-thirds of the cost, but my sympathy had been so aroused by his statement that I save him the remainder from my own pocket. He never returned to report. bT>t a few weeks after.Mr Shipley, one of the Town Missionaries called upon me, and stated that he had recommended the man to come, and that the poor woman was completely recovered, bnt that he feared if she ha"i not soon obtiined relief she would have gone mad, for her cries of suffering bad long been 80 distressing as to alarm he* neighbours He also said, the success of your Bands in that case had deeply interested him in the subject of Medical Galvanism, and he has already recommended several patientß. NERVOUS DEPRESSION. Mr N, Ipswfch, one of our largest draper*, called upon me in March last, to ask my opinion of his sister's ca«o. He stated th<»t she w»s in a low. nervous state, suffering from constant headache, indigestion, and general exhaustion ; she had long been under medical care, but merTfcine had failed to reach her case. I advised a set of Bands arranged to cover the nervous centres giving full directions, A few weeks since her brother called again, stating that the result had been highly pleasing and satisfactory, and that all her friends were sitrprised and delighted at the great improvement which had taken place. Ipswich, Snffolk, Robert Seager. *** We insert this letter because we know that the writer is quite incapable of misrepresentation, and that his object is one of pure philanthropy.
