EAR AND EYE.
DEAFNESS, TOTAL OR PARTIAL,
ENTIRELY REMOVED.

nR. ALSOPHERT begs leave to call the
~ attention of those suffering under par
tial or total loss Of the sense OF hearing to the
following facts:
He treats diseases of the middle aid internal
ear with medicated douehes such as is prac-
tised in the Infrmaries of Berlin, Liepsic, Bras
sells, Hamburg, and St. Petersburg; and lately
by most distinguished London Aurists, with
the most wonderful success indeed, it is the
only method that has been universally sue
cessful.
The best proof Of the efficacy OF this treat
ment viii be a reference TO nearly nine hundred
names, residents of the United States, Canada
New Brunswick, aud Nova Scotia, who have
been restored to acute hearing, and not single
solitary case, to our knowledge did we fail 10
effect either partial or total restoration of the
hearing, when our advice and instructions
were carefully adhered to- Many, who could
not hear the report of pistol at arm length
can now hear a watch beat at the distance of
four feet. In case Of mucus accumulation to
the Eustachina tube and tympanum intiama-
ton of the mucus membrane nervous affections
diseases of the membrane tympani, called the
drum or, when the disease can be traced to
the effects of eyers or colds, the use Of ouinine
or mercurial medicines, gathering in the ears
in childhood, &c, this treatment stands pre-
eminent When the auditory canal is dry and
scaly, with little or no secretion; when the deaf
ness is accompanied with noise in the ear like
! falling water, chipping Of insects. ringing Of
bells, rusting Of leaves, continual pulsations,
a discharge Of matter, or, when STOPPING, q
sensation is felt as il a rush of blood 10 the
head had taken place; when the hearing isles
acute in duh, cloudy weather, or when cold
has been taken, this method OF treating the
disease is intaliibe. In deaf and dumb cases,
my experience warrants me IN saying that Il
the hearing was good at any time, much can
be accomplished. In the deaf and dumb schools
at Leipsic, out OF class Of fourteen, ] sue
cecded in restoring four to acute hearing.
DR.. A. begs explicitly to state that in those
cases he undertakes, he guarantees successful
resut--complete restoration of the sense, o.
such q marked improvement as will be perfectly
satisfactory If his remedies are faithfully an
piled and directions adhered TO.
Applicants will please state their age, dura.
ton Of the disease, il matter issues from the ex.
/ ternal passage, il there are noises in the cars
state Of general health and what they suppose
to have been the cause Of the deafness. Wher
the hearing is restored il isexpected that those
in easy circumstances will contribute literally
