For the EXnress


Medical skill.
EDITOR ExPREss-Dear Sir In asking
the use ofyour columns for the purpose of
giving publicity to the following. am ac-
tuated by no other motive than the good Of
those who may be similarly afflicted. My
self and son the past year have been affiic-
ted with diseased eyes, which baffled the
skill of our physicians. In December last
| received letter from Lemuel Chandler
of Bourbon. Douglas Co.. Illinois. inform
ing me that his wife and daughter were at
Terre Haute at DR.. Hulburt's Infirmary,
and that he was treating them very sue
cessfully Immediately sent my son TO
the Infrmary. He had already lost the
sight OF one eye by usskillful treatment
He returned 10 FIVE weeks with his eyes
perfectly sound, except the previous loss
ofsight of the one.
Mr.. Allen Campbell, an acquaintance Of
mine " hose p. o. address is Okaw. Ills,
came to DR.. Hulburt's In6rmary about the
first of Feb. last. He had had sore eyes
for long time aud was so blind that pi-
lot was necessary 10 get him to the Infrm-
ary. He left March 18th with his eyes as
sound as they ever were in bis life. AT
this time had abandoned all hope Of get
ting relief short Of Terre Haute. My
eyes getting worse. on the 18th Of May
commenced treatment at the Infrmary.
have been under the Dr's care four weeks
and returned home with we'll eyes. Dur
ing my short stay with the DR.. saw much
to interest me. One lady, Mrs. Billy Of
Terre Haute, had been afflicted for three
yeas. One eye was covered with fieshy
film the other with a white film on the
pupil. She represented herself as nearly
blind. She described her pains as most
excruciating. After about three weeks
medication appeared to be we'll, but was
still under treatment She could see to
read fine print with ease. ] was present
every morning when her eyes were treated.
Her gratitude for her delivery was unboun-
ded.
One more case I will mention. A Miss
Webster of Bridgeton, Ind. She had been
nearly blind for long time. caused by
films OF some unnatural girths over the eye
balls. This the DIR. said was one of his
hardest cases. She had been at the lnfirm
airy seven weeks. When left one eye was
entirely restored, and the other nearly SO,
but still under treatment. To dojustice To
all parties ought to state that the eye pa
tieuts who visit the lnfrmary are all treated
by Mrs. Hulburt. Patients need not wait
to see the Dr., as the Eye Department il
wholly in the hands Of Mrs. Hulburt, who
in my Judgment is ons Of the most skill
full eye physicians Of the age. and alto
gether most extraordinary woman. She
is one Of the truly benevolent. who labor'
diligently for the relief of patients ant
comfort Of her guests.

and to say that be was one Of those who
could not see how the Union could be dis
solved.
Mr. Dawson of Ga. called the gentleman
TO order.
Mr.. Baldwin persevered, and continued
for a few minutes in the same strain. when
Mr.. Barry OF Miss. rose and said. Whilst
we of the South have avoided all discus
sion of the question we cannot permit
others to open the discussion. We have
allowed the gentleman from New York to
speak from courtesy, and he has abused
that courtesy.
Mr.. Baldwin resumed, and was speaking
when motion to adjourn was made and
carried unanimously.
Cries were made for a speech from Mr..
Gauey, but he declined by saying that he
had much labor before him at Washington
and Baltimore, aud would take occasion to
address the citizons of Richmond on his re-
turn.

iron as a Medical Remedy.


The coloring matter ofthe blood comes
from the Iron therein, which cannot be di-
minisbed below a certain quantity with
out rendering the blood unit for the per.
feet uutrition of the different organs. In
such cases the fact is apparent by general
paleness, weak circulation, impaired
breathing, cold extremites, DC.
1t may be asked, from what is the blood
derivedf We answer, principally from the
food But il the food is not properly di
gested, there can be no healthy blood, and
consequently no adequate nutrition of the
body. The bad blood will irritate the
heart, clog up the lungs, Supply the brain,
obstruct the liver, and cause arrangement
everywhere. The feeble girl will suffer
from chlorosis aud menstrual Irregular
ties, the adult from dyspepsia, neuralgia,
and headaches; many will suffer from boils
aud skin diseases; the bilious from iufia
med liver, dropsy and constipation; and
the care worn professional man from every
i'll in Pandora's box. Now, it is certain
that if the deficient amount Of iron in the
blood can be supplied, the symptoms Of
disease will consequently cease.
Chemistry proves that the only form in
which iron can assimilare with the blood
Is that of u protoxyde. salt very liable to
further oxidation; when it becomes neaaly
inert 10 the stomach.
In the Peruvian Syrup, by chemical in
genuity, this officially has been for the
first time overcome; and this assertion is
amply sustained by tie distinguished
Chemist and Assayer to the State Of Mass
achusetts, DR.. Hayes. 1t must be admit
ted, then. to be most important addition
to the Materia Medics, and an invaluable
remedy for many Of the worst forms Of dis.
ease.

ide Iron, a new discovery in medicine. and
