The telegraph yesterday afternoon
brought Us General Sheridanls OficislT re-
port Of what he had accomplished, which
viii, we presume comprise All that he VIII
ct present attempt. II demonstrates q
most brillisnt success. After defeating
Early utterly al WsynesbOro, General
Sheridan pushed on across the Blue Ridge
to Charlottesville, which he occupied.
Chsrlottesvflie is handsome town, the
county-seat of Albems-le county. The
University of Virginia is located there.
From this point he sent out his forces In
every direction TO the south and esst to
destroy the canal, railroads bridges, faeto-
ries and public property. This work, q
detailed report os which is given in Gen
eral eheridan'5 report, which our readers
viii find in our telegraphic columns this
morning, was done most thoroughly, the
whole district, from Charlottesville to the
Jsmes River, and within eight miles Of
Lynehburg, 8 belt Of land about twenty
i've miles in width and forty in length, be-
ing entirely cleaned out This very dis
trict, too is the richest in the South, and
has been used by Lee as the great store
house Of the rebellion. The canal, which
has bean destroyed for distance Of some
twenty miles, has been, Is General Sheri-
dan says, the great feeder Of Richmond
With this work we presume the country
and the administration viii for the present
be content. General Sheridan wiz hardly
attempt to do anything more just now.
The terrible rains which prevailed in that
region during his operations have 50 delay
ed him that Lynchburg is probably fully
defended and he viii make no sttempt TO
capture it. But in snnihilating Esrly's
force and In laying waste 50 large Por-
tion Of the rebel grsnsry, General Sheri-
dan has done signal service, snd he again
deserves the thanks of the country.

Since the few first days use of your pre-

most at once. I was relieved from very
depressed state OF feeling and an almost in
tolersble case, to an elastic and hopeful
state of mind and I had comparatively

knowing how great the fear Of imposition
is with those, who in the past like myself,

at this time, to aid and command
you in establishing high and deserved

[From the Newark Daily AdYertiSsr.I
Il will surprise few who understand the
political characteristics of our Legislature,
though It win dhsppoint many who do not
TO learn that the House Of Assembly has
rejected the Constitutional Amendment
which proposes TO remove the cause Of all
our woes, by prohibiting slavery wherever
the United States Government has juris-
diction. After debate Of two days durs-
ton, in which the Union members strug-
gled msnfully against that partisan preju-
dice which denies freedom to mankind, the
vote was finally taken, under call for the
previous question, and resulted In tie
thirty ayes, all Union members, and thirty
noes, all Democrats There vera ct the
outset some cheering indications Of 9 dis
position TO emaneipste themselves from the
shackles Of party, on the part Of several Of
the opposition members, but the final vote
proves how powerless they were -how
completely enslsFed by the influence which
orushes private opinion here, while It
maintains with equal zeal the right Of hu-
man bondage elsewhere. s.lt ita 9-c f
In their speeches upon the subject
sketches of which we're furnished by our
reporters, some ef the Democratic members
justified their opposition with arguments in
fsvor of human slavery which would have
almost startled its Southern advocates,
They quoted freely from the Bible, which
they appear to have ransscked with great
er zeal FOR this doomed institution than for
their own, salvation, and were prof1se in
invectiVe against the ministers Of the gos-
pei for not interpreting its precepts in &C
cordance with their own peculiar views. 20
But the main political argument against
the amendment sprung from the very spir-
It Of the rebellion itself, and was based up
on the long-cherished doctrine Of State
rights, which they make paramount
TO the rights of the United States
Foigetting that these States, by repn-
dating the Constitution, have resigned
all claims to any rights on privileges under
it the Democratic party in cur Legis-
lsture has st last thrown off the himsy
mask by which It has formerly concealed
its real sympathies, and proclaimed itself
the friend and supporter Of an institution
which our fathers long ago abolished, and
which stiD seeks TO destroy the whole fab
nc Of the Union. - b s5-l.s s-s 1
This action of our Legislature must not
be regarded as the verdict Of the people.
The subject was scarcely thought Of when
the present members were elected; it GER
tainly hsd not the aspect of National i'm
portance which it has since assumed in the
progress Of the rebellion, and which has
justified the most summary measures. The
friends of the Union, therefore, sincerely
hoped that New Jersey would be as prompt
in rstifying the amendment as other loyal
States have been, with only two exceptions.
In this, however, they are disappointed,
and final decision Of the question must
be postponed till another year, and another
election, in which the people Of the State
VIII have an opportunity to express them
selves upon it, -

DR.. @. B. LIGHTHILL-Dear Sir:-Itake
much pleasure in informing you that nv
daughter is much better of her deafness un-
der your treatment. She had the Scarlet
Fever when five years old, which left her
hearing much impaired, and which seemed
also to be settling down into permanent,
and as we much feared, perfect and incur
able deafness. We were not little fear
ful and unbelieving in any efforts at cure,
having previously applied to other physi.
clans without success. But We soon found
under your tree tment, evidences of decid-
ed improvement. The sanious discharge
soon changed to white one, indicating a
healthy, healing process. We are yet
making use of your prescription, and hope
you will not fail to visit these parts soon,
as several of my friends are anxious to see
the good Samaritan, that they may obtain a
little ofthe oil of consolation for themselves.
Respectfully yours, II. RoRERTs.

TESTIMONIALS OF REMARKABLE CURES.
Among the numerous testimonials in his
possession, DR.. Lighthil has selected few
only Of those from parties of established
position and well known throughout the
country.
From the New York Home Journal Of June 4.
In every business or profession, indeed
in every department Of science or skill,
there is always some acknowledged head
some one who stands out in bold relief
among his fellows as q sort of leader. In
the study and treatment of Deafness and
Cstsrrh, as special diseases, Dr.. Lighthill
of this city occupies just the position above
described. He has devoted years of labor
to this speciality; and is now reaping the
reward of industry. The editorial columns
of the Tribune, Of q recent date bear wit
ness to the Doctors success in this depart
ment Of medicine. We quote the para
graph.
CURE OF A DEAF MUTE-Louis Loew-
instein, lad of fourteen years of ege, born
in Germany, came to this city when he
was about two years old. Soon after his
arrival here he was taken sick and lost his
hearing. By degrees he became first deaf
and then dumb. For nearly ten years he
was q mute, and unable to hear the loudest
sound or to srticulste word. About one
year ago he was placed by his parents in
the hands of DR.. Lighthill, who so far sue
ceeded In restoring him to his lost powers
Of hearing and utterance that he can con-
verse with those who speak to him distinct
ly and deliberately. DuIing the past four
or five month he has been under the tut
ton of DR.. Bennickie, and he has made
considerable progress in reading and arith-
metic.
Having been supplied with the lads ad-
dress We further investigated the matter,
and discovered thst previous to calling on
DR.. Lighthill, the youths case was consid.
cred hopeless, and he was for two years an
inmate of the Deaf and Dumb Asylum.-
