 made diligent use of the usual remedies. such as snufs of different kinds, nitrate of sil. yer, tar water and inhalations, but without any very salutary effects. Last summer heard of Dr. Lighthill's successful mode of treating catarrh. visited him, and put myself under his treatment. I began immediately to i'm prove. and this improvement has gone ousto the present time.
