The possessed fem-de becomes so excited and insensible that she does not cease blowing and waving her hands until others hold her down by force, in order to bring her to a state in which she can be consulted. A great deal no doubt depends upon the peculiarity of her constitution, for only particular females arc possessed, and those who arc disposed to the afflatus are said to have a visitation of some sort on that night, if they have no opportunity of attending the party. | The possessed fem-de becomes so excited and insensible that she does not cease blowing and waving her hands until others hold her down by force, in order to bring her to a state in which she can be consulted.

... | {{Style S-Small capitals| Mesmerism}}.—Mr. D. Younger, of I, Sandy Hill, Woolwich, in the course of a letter, says:—“In reply to your quotation from the ''Medical Press and Circular, ''headed ‘Spiritualistic Quackery,’ I beg you will grant the privilege of being heard to one who has made mesmerism his study for thirty years. During that time I have become acquainted with, and through mesmeric agency performed, many astounding cures of the most obstinate and complicated diseases, some of them after being pronounced incurable by what the ''Medical Press ''calls ‘the profession.’ 1’or these cures I never received any payment, but the satisfaction of doing good. I have cases in hand at the present time, and have just finished with a ease of long-standing ague, thoroughly cured by four treatments. Such, sir, has been my success, that it inspires me with confidence sufficient to ask any of ‘the profession’ to put their powers to the test in parallel eases with their most celebrated remedies. I will volunteer to substantiate the superiority of mesmerism.” | ||
