who deal with customers slmost solely Of
this class, fnd their safety in sxOTbitsnt
charges, and upon these terms (denomi-
mated by the craft "pretty stif') do an
amount Of business which the uninilisted

A PrnposItipn fpr Exchanse.

The Richmond Whig Of the 9Th Of June
urges the expulsion from the rebsl capitsi
Of "some fifteen hundred or two thousand
Irish and German women who are now
living there, on the score that their hus-
bands i have gone over to the Yankees,
and many Of them entered the Yankee SER
vice" The southern gentleman who
writes this in one Of the leading rebel
iournsIs, shows his gentle breeding BY the
WsV in which he speaks Of these unfortu-
nate women and their children. He says:
"Tney do not pretend to DO any kind Of
work, snd spend sll their time in running
from one place where charity is dispensed
to another, Just as hogs in the fall OF the
year run from one apple tree to another"
We have no doubt the husbands Of these
g Irish and German women" would have
preferred to enter the Union armies; but
there is every reason ts believe that they
have been conscripted into the rebel ranks,
ana have either died there or are still
forced to fight for these rebels, who now
propose to expel ihsir helpless wives and
| children. When one Of the Shareholders
| IN 1861 told Russell, the London Tim
correspondent, that whea the fRhting was
done Trey meant to put down he Irish, ne
only expressed what is in the heart Of ev-
cry slsveholding rebel. who sees in q free
working man "mudsill, filthy me-
ehapie" and EersOn dangerous to
slavery.
As 70 sending these Irish and German
women and children into our lines, We esp
only say, thsy will be welcome. The men
Of the free states have never refused an
asylum, safety, shelter, food, clothing, and
kind Offices to helpless women and otild !
rem. But when hey come to us, let our
government send ssEth, to Richmond, an
equal, or better a double number Of the
rebel women with whom the bosrdiDg
houses Of New York are crowded, and not
less than twenty thousand OF whom are
known to our police. By such sn exchange
we shall be greatly benefted.-M 7. Post

DEAFNESS, CATARRH,

From the Home Journal, June 4, 1894.

| From the Home Journal, June f. 1884.
In every business or profession, indeed In e7-
cry department of science or skill, there is al,
ways some acknowledged head-some one who
stands out in bold relief among his fellows, as
sort of leader in the study and treatment
aSs.eaasss eE'i s'-tsrrh. anaoals disaasas DR..
| E. B. LIGHTHILL, OF this City, occupies -jasI
the position above described. De has devoted
years oflabor TO this speciality, and is now reap
ing the reward of his industry. The editorial
columns of the Tribune. of a late date, bear wit
ness to the doctors success in this department
Of medicine. We quote the paragraph:
'"CURE OF A DEAR MUTE.-Louis LoeWein-
stein, lad Il years of age, born in Germany,
came TO this city when he was about two years
old. Soon after his arrival here he was taken
first deaf and then dumb. For -arly ten years
he was a mute unable to hear the loHdest voice,
or TO artculate q word. About one year
ago be was placed by his parents IN
the hands of DE. LIGHTHILL, who has so far
succeeded IN restoring to him his lost poAers Of
hearing and uttersnee that he can converse with
tho who speak to him distinctly and deliber-
ataly. during the past four or i've months he
has been under the tuition Of BIr. Bennecke, and
has made considerable progress In reading and
srithemetic."
Having been supplied with the lads address
Tefurther investigated the matter, and discov-
cred that previous to calling on DR.. Lghthill,
the youths case wss considered hopeless, and
he was for two years an inmate of the Deaf and
Dumb Asylum. The Rev. John Mott, D. D., Pro-
fessor in Union College, Schenectady, in a puo-
lished letter, tenders his gratitude to DR.. Light
hill, for treating successfully his case Of deaf
ness Rev Fred. s. Jewell, Professor Of the
State Normal School at Albany, also testiies to
having been cured of catsrrh. DR.. Lighthill
possesses other written testimonials and tn
butes to his talent from some of our Wealthiest
and most prominent anu respected citizens,
which may be seen on application. 1t would be
dificult TO speak in any but terms Of praise of
his treatment, in the face of these many proofs
and facts testifyipg to his success.

We ourselves can bear witness that the
delegates chosen sprang more directly from

who were both radical and conservative.
They were from the people who declared
that the rebellion must be suppressed. The
reasons for admitting delegates from Ar

also VindiOsted. They we're for the Union
