Lond., PHrSICIAN TO THE INPUiilABY POS EPILEPSY AXD PARALYSIS. ' That whicli forms the invisible but living weapon of the electric eel; that whicli liberated by the contact of moist dissimilar particles circulates through all the organs of animals and plants ; that which flashing from the thunder- cloud illumines the wide skj^ey canopy; that which di-aws iron to iron, and directs the silent recurring march of the guiding needle;—all, like the several hues of the divided ray of light, flow from one source, and all blend again together in one perpetual force, which is diffused everywhere.'
