From among tho thousands cf Testimonial!! to the extraordinary Curative power of these Galvanic Appliances, we oxiract the following as being horotighly reliable: — TO TTTK EDITOR OF TFfli " CHRISTIAN WORLD." Sir,— Knowing ihat your valuable journal has ever been a medium of doing S'lod. not only to tho souls of men, but also to their bodies, ns evincpd by the great interest you have ever taken in tlv> benevolent movements of tho dny. I have tnken the liberty to rddn-ssyon upon a subject which often appears in your advnrtWner columns, but Thicv> I fear, either throuch isrnornnce of its great value or thp f«»r of being- duped, is overlooked by a very large number of yonr reaiers. I allude to medical galvanism, a* applied for the cure of disnase, hut morn w" iaily that system of self-application invented by Mr Pnlvermacner. Many of thp cases which have come before me have been treated for months, arid pome for years, by men of undoubted ability and pkill in the mpdlcil pro fession, who have taken the utmost pains, and ex hausted every resource of the apotheca y in vain, have been curefl by Pulvermachor's system in t. 'few w«eks I will not say tl.at cv-ry cfe has met with like requite, but I do affirm tint the proportion of miccoßi which ha<? attended myf'ehle pfforts during the la«it two or throe years would lie sufficient to '■-'■ibMsh a first-class refutationfor any medical man, i'*pecia'ly considering that, nearly all the patients had bpen nnfler jroo'i raedic.il treatment, and many of them had been riven un as hopeless. Will you allow me to recite a few facts ? NEURALGIA. Fifteen months since I lent a 10s fid band to » lacty who had been » great Ruffcrer from HOTHAIiOIA for four months. She stated that phe had been under the care of two eminent medical men (whoso names '■he gave), but that she had not obtained th« smiHwt relief ; she had not been able to get one hour's sound sleep for many weeks; that she was almost in dis traction from the constant severity of thp pain I placed tho band upon her head, requPStiug her to wear it till the pain ceased. I call"d upon her a week after, when she expressed her deep gratitude for my Irindne'e, stating that she ornp entirely freo from pain, ' and had slept soundly all night for several nights, and that her strength wns rapidly recn'«riDg. NERVOUS -DEBILITY. Last summer a gentleman wrn c to me from Hor bury complaining of great nervous debility and prostration. He had Irier! medical aid in vin. He feared his ago was against him, being near 70 but if 1 thought there was hope he would try. I advised him to try the 50s combined band. He did pot re ceive '-ny grcßt benefit for several trinls, wrote me one or two despairing letters, but I encouraged him to persevere. I heard nothing of him from October until six weeks sinco, when he wrote nm a letter ex pressing Ms gratitude in no measured t^rms, stating that he was quite recovered ; that he had enjoyed the be=t winter's health during the last winter which he had known for many yea-s. EHEUMATISM. Thirteen months aao I met "a well-known and highly respectable solicitor of this town, walking at a very feeble pace, ns if in preat pain, with a staff in one hand and the other hand stretched out as stiff as fit had neither life nor power. I took tho liberty to stop him and F.slt the nature of his complaint. He informed me that h« wns a great suffer*-r from rheu matism, which extended from the shoulders to the tip of his finjrers, causing his arm to become quite stiff; that he had received the best medical advice, got no relief, but was in great pain night and day. I strongly advised him to try a galvanic band, which he ultimately desired I would obtain for him It reached from the shoulder to the palm of the hand, coiled all round the arm. Ten days after ho com menced to wear it he called upon me, placed the afflicted arm over his shoulder with perfect ease, ex claiming, " Thanks to you, Seager; you are a capital doctor " In three months he wax perfectly recovered, and lies had no return of the malady WEAKNESS IN LOINS. Lsßt October a minister wrote me from Rugby' stating that he suffered severe pain, attended, with great weakness in the loins and logs, so that ho could not rise from liis chair or walk anywhere without help. I advised him to gel a spine band for the loins, and a narrow ono for the legs. He wrote to me a few weeks ago. expressing his warmest gratitude and stating that in three weeks from the time he com menced to wear the bands ho was so far recovered as o rise and walk »nywbr.re without help. INDIGESTION. About the same time a farmer residing at P>uckle sham—agnntleman well-known in this neighbourhood —c illed to seek my advice. He stated that, his diges tion wag so weak that his stomach rejected the simplest diet, even a bowl of milk from his own dairy (which of course was minus the chalk), that he often felt as he should fall on the fields from sheer faintness »s he went about I recommended him to try the 50s combined band. He called again in six weekc. thanked me most heartily, and declared that he frit physically a new man. To nse 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 wp.eks 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 aiid a staff. He was In such great pain as to make it difficult for him to rphear.=e his case, at last he informed me that he had benn treated for sciatic* by a highly respectable physician whom ho named, but that he had candidly assured him that he feared he was beyond the reach of medicine, and advised him to try galvanism ; and that he had alno recom mended him to seek mv advice as to the bet mode of treatment. I obtained for him a suitable band,which he at once commenced to wear, and in a fortnight he cast away his cratches, and can now walk erect, and att pnd 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 woman called upon me, stating th»t his wife had long been a grevious sufferer from Neuralgia, in thk Temples and Fack He said tlw pain was so severe, sind her groans so piteous, that his life was quite miserable. ' I advised him Ko 2 Band, but he said that unfortunately he had bean out of work fnr six weeks, and could not rai»e more than two-thirds of the cost, but my sympathy had been so aroused by his-statement that I gave him the remainder from my own pocket, He never returned to report, b^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 onpletely recovered, but that he feared if she ha^ not soon obtained relief she would have gone mad, for her cries of suffering had long been so distressing as to alarm her neishbours. He also taid, the success of yonr Bands in that case had deeply interested him in the subject of Medical Galvanism, and he has already recommended several patients. NERVOUS DEPRESSION. Mr N, Ipswich, one of our largest drapers, called upon me in March last, to ask my opinion of his water's case. He stated that she was in a low. nervous state, suffering from constant headache, indigestion, and general exhaustion ; she had long been under medical care, but medicine 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 surprised and delighted at the great improvement which had taken place. Ipswich, Suffolk, Robrrt 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.
