To which is added, a short account, how the electrical effluvia act upon the animal frame, and in what disorders the same may probably be applied with success, and in what not.

By FRANCIS PENROSE Surgeon at Bicester .
They who are universally allowed the very greatest, and wisest of men, have been, and still are, intent upon the making of observations , and experiments : and surely that must be in order to some further end. These would be vain, and wholely useless, were not some reflections made, some conclusions drawn, some theory or hypothesis raised from them.
