THE EYES! THE EYES!
DIR. =. n. PARDEE, occulist.

A FTER protracted blindness of more than
II five years, DR.. PARDEE has made himself
thoroughly and scientifically acquainted with all
diseases of the Eye. and has been in prac-
tice eight years in San Francisco with success
that cannot be surpassed in any part of the
United States; and for proof of this be will SUBJ
stantiate by cases that have been cured by him,
after having exhausted the skill of all the emf
nent Occulists in the cities Boston, Philadel-
phia and New York. DR.. P. wholly objects to
the use of caustic, blue stone-keeping the pa
tient in dark room, dieting, bistering, cup
ping-the blue pill at night and salts in the
morning, ETC.. etc. DR.. PARDEE has also
been remarkably successful in the treatment Of
Rheumatism, Neuralgia, and all pains about the
head !; and the frequent calls that he has for his
Rheumatic mixture from all parts of the-coa
with the many testimonials, is positive proof of
its efficacy; and to prevent answering many in
quires by letter. he will state that it can be sent
to any part of the State or coast, and each bot
tie will be accompanied by full directions and a
receipt for linment, magical in its effects over
pain. ingredients of which can be procured any
where-price, $40. The ARTIFICIAL EYES
inserted by Dr. P. have all the natural move
ments of the real eye, and cannot be detected
even by close inspection. Address

RB Garibaldi has reached his home in Ca
prera, and rejoices in his personal liberty re-
gained His friend Victor Emanuel. during his
absence winning freedom for his country and
nations for his King, had changed the stony
desert" Of the island into a garden, and erected
mansion, surrounding it with shady groves
and fine plantations, in the place where former
ly stood but poor cottage. Garibaldis joy on
his arrival is thus naively expressed
" He speaks with enthusiasm of his repained
freedom, and be has been anxious to extend il
even to three war horses, which he with his own
hands unsaddled and unbridIed, and allowed
freely to run about the country the moment he
set foot on his own isle. So eager was the
Dictator to be free from the cares of state that
he with his own hands loosened the mooring
cable of the vessel which was to watt him away
from Naples to Caprera."
Possessed of the courage of lion, the Lber-
ator is yet as simple as child and ms tender in
his sympathies as woman The Qualities OF
great men may perhaps be more truly learned
from trif1ing incidents like these than from the;r
famous actions.n-S f. Herald.

The news from Baltimore, published
yesterday afternoon, Informing us of the
e6Wardly and brutal onslaught of the
traitors on the United States troops, as
they were marching through the city,
caused a general thrill of indignation
throughout this city. The people read
the extras, and discussed the matter along
the streets, and in all rnhlic places, in
tones of the deepest feeling. hut one
sentiment was heard-that of deep, de-
voted attachment to the cause q the
UniOn. The secessiOnists, If there can be
said to be any now among US, were dumb.
They seemed to realize that they ARE play

that their cause among US is fast waning

that they had good reason to look well to
