Professor W. H. Allen had a largo number of visitors yesterday and to-day. The Professor, we may state, holds a diploma from the office of the County Court ofßt. Louis in the County of Missouri, dated April 10th, 1875. The diplomr is a firat-clau one, and is that of a physician. In answer to certain queries with reference to animal magnetism whieh have been propounded by come of the taranit of Gisborne, the Professor has mad* the following replies i—Anmlmal magnetism is a fluid snread throughout the whole universe. It Is the mutual influence between the celestial bodies, the earth, and the animated bodies, It is continuous so that no void ean exist. Its subtility can be oompared to nothing else. It ie capable of re. eeiving, of propagating, of communicating every impression of motion. It is susceptible both of flux and reflux. Animated bodies feel the effect of this agent, and it is by insinuating itself into the substance of the nerves that the latter are effected thereby, We may state, that out of over 100 persons, to whom the Professor has sold his wonderful pads, he has not received one single oom. plaint; but, on the contrary, has received congratulations for the relief he has afforded. Wo would request that the smoking whieh occurred in Parnell and Boylan’s mil tart evening be discontinued. The lecturer Mr Forbes, called attention to it, and we are glad he did so. for a more filthy practice oouid not ba very well tolerated, with a number of ladies prerent. We hope the gallant oonee. pondent will have no occasion to-night to repeat his admonition.
