The reason for this spasmodic jubllancy

nouneemsnt that Nathaniel Hawthorne
died yesterday ct Boston. His loss is in

ed bv the whole nation. For no man is
more truly American in thought, feeling
and sympsthies-no one Of all American
writer's more worthy to be crowned with
our greenest lsurels-thsn Nathaniel
Hawthorne. His genius, qusint, original,
refined and fchOlarly as it is, is yet in
stinct with American, and especially New
England, character. His stories have IL
luminated the early New England history
and characteristics with light that has
made them immortal in our memories. 1t
is wonderful with what accurate fidelity,
and yet with what poetic beauty, he has
transferred the persOnsgeS Of the seven
teenth century into the gallery Of fiction,
freshening the colors of each sketch and
wiping away the immemOrial dust upon

EAR AND THROAT.
TESTIMONIALS,

FROM THE REV. FRED. s. JEWELL,
PROFESSOR or THE STATE HoRSAL SCHOOL, ALBANY
NEW ToRk.
This may certify that 1 have been, since
1874, subject to violent periodical attacks Of
ostsrrh, marked by highly inhsmed con-
dition Of the lining membrane CT the csyi-
ties Of the head, producing a most dis
| tressing species Of headache for days ct a
time, wholly incspacitatiRg me for busi-
ness, and during the psroxysms confning
me to the bed. In some instances the in
Asmmstion has extended to the teeth, oe-
cssioning toothsche to the throat pro-
/ duoing hosrseness and partial loss Of
voice; and twice it has 30 affected the
left eye as to conhne me for 8 month or
more to dsFkened room. These attacks
have been accompanied by strong febrile
symptoms; by stoppsges Of the head, and
in the first stages by watery discharges
from the nose and subsequently becoming
scrid and yellow, and towards the close Of
the attack becoming bloody and purulent.
| have tried medicines Of almost every
kind; external applications to the head,
such ss csmphor, ginger, hot vinegar,
snuffs of some half dozen kinds, and
other cstarrahsi preparations, together
with internal remedies, such as alternatives,
csthartics and emetics. These have pro
duced no change in the occurrence or
character Of the disease, and in most cases,
with little or no temporary relief. had
come at length, to believe the disease to be
practically beyond either cure or material
allevistion.
Under theJe circumstances l was led,
some five months ago, to make q trial Of
DR.. LighthilPs treatment. His method ct
once approved itself to my judgment, as
simple, philosophical, aud likely TO he ef-
fective. Notwithstanding the disadvan-
tsges under which he lsbored, in dealing
with disease Of such long standing, sg-
gravated by nervous debility and dyspep-
sia, and constantly induced by the aoci-
dents of my professional labor, found
the treatment reaching the disease as it
bad never been reached before, and pro-
duoing such modification and alleVistion
Of its character, as had supposed impos-
sible- l chronicle the result thus.
Although I have been situated several
times 30 that should formerly have be-
hsved severe attack Of my catarrh ineV-
liable, have escaped thus far; the symp-
toms Of threatened attack have been very
light, and have yielded to the remedies
employed by DR.. Lighthill, without the

the head have resumed the original and
natural condition. That have been able
to obtain SO material relief is to me a
cause Of gratitude. In that alone l am
repaid for whatever the treatment may
have cost me.

means Of acknowledging my obligations

GENERAL GRANT As ATAorIoIAN.
How the late Battles are Regarded By an
Eminent Critic


The New York Herald, Of May 18th, in
private letter from an eminent Ofiser Of the
United States engineers, we'll known as
military writer, dated Washington, May
I1th, to friend in this city, contains the
following observations, which, being of
great public interest, the recipient takes
the liberty Of laying before the public,
though we'll satisfied they we're not writ
ten with any view to such 9 use being
made of them:
Nothing can be more sbsuri than the al
Legations in certain Of your New York pa
pers, to the effect that the recent battles
south Of the Rspidsu have thus far fur
nished mere exhibition Of 8 "brute force"
on the part of General Grant. When the
sctusl figures Of the contest come to be
known it will be seen how preposterous are
these suggestions. The enemy being on
| the offensive, we have had, of course, to a
certain extent, to accept battle upon
| ground Of his own selection, and our troops
have occasionally been called upon to sd-
vance at great cost through q country
heavily timbered and against lines of
esrthWorks and rife pits connecting dense
woods and other nstursl distractions. But
70 the superb msneuvres and combins-
tions by which the various positions Of the
enemy have been successfully turned, too
high praise cannot be accorded. Nearly
ali the reports Of our losses that have
seen are C1sggerstiOns, the best informed
estimates at this point not placing our Kill
led, wounded and missing at over thirty
Eve thousand, Of whom, probably, about
fUur tt.0us~nS-0rO- prisoners, and anme
four or i've thousand stragglers, skulkers
or deserters.- Far from there having been
any ''useless sacrifice Of life" on our part,
it will be found that the quickest and
roughest work always costs the least blood
in the long run, except where regular for
tifcstions have to be ssssiled: and am
convinced, from all We have thus far
heard, that the Army Of the Potomac will
be found to have been handled during the
past ten lays with tenscity Of purpose
snd mastery Of the science and art Of
war which will hereafter challenge the sd-
mirstion of every competent soldier in our
own and European armies.
