Eauk IoiLst ULizoiS

From L. +. Gagt0in, President of the City
Bank, Joliet Illinois,
DR.. LlsHTH1LL,-Desr Sir:-It affords
me the greatest satisfaction to be able to
inform you that am still improving. and
have the highest hopes that my ear will be
entirely well by the time you at first men
toned it would take to effect cure. can
say that am truly thankful to the kind
Providence which directed me to you.-
Since the few first days use of your pre-
scription, my ear has improved, and al
most at once. I was relieved from very
depressed state OF feeling and an almost in
tolerable case, to an elastic and hopeful
state of mind and had comparatively
little trouble from it. What DR.. John
Mott replied to me as his experience, has
been mine so far. Ny Catarrhal trouble
seems very much better also, and indeed,
altogether my health was never so good.
am weighing some five pounds more
than is usual for me, (snd more than eY-
er weighed before.)
can but hope that it may be the good
fortune of many, with like troubles, to fall
in the way of the benefit Of your skill, and
knowing how great the fear Of imposition
is with those, who in the past, like myself,
have suffered by it. and feeling wish,
sincerely at this time, to aid and command
you in establishing high and deserved
position amongst US in your profession, I
beg therefore, that you will not hesitate to
refer to me, as it may be of use. also en-
close herewith Professor Motifs reply to
my letter of inquiry, which deem highly
credible to you, and of great importanceto to
others, as it has been to me. I will visit
you again soon. In the meantime, believe
me, Yours, very sincerely

II was somewhat curious TO observe that
majority of these silks fit tight TO the
throat. Basques trimmed Ia n1iLitGtre,
with various folds of white ribbons, were
much worn. MOlrs antiques of white, pink,
scarlet, blue, green, pearl, orange, purple,

We also noticed several double-skirted
silks, of which white silk skirt, looped
at the side, over lilac skirt triWmed with
silver lace, and fringed, was greatly sd-

LETTERS FROM GEN. MEREDITH AND COL.

Tho following correspondence explains itself.
The letter of General Meredith to Colonel Che
nowith, rejects great credit on both the head and
heart of that popular commander. The letter,
also, of Colonel Chen9withis an exceedingly elo-
quent production, which Is credtable to the au-
thor as an earnest, heartfelt confession OF the
condition of things and a seemingly honest dec-
laration that further rife should not receive his
aid:
