AN AUTOGRAPH LETTER FROM
GEORGE D.PRENTICE, Esq
Editor Of the "Loaisrille Journal"

LOUISVILLE November 5th, 1866.
DIR. LIGHTHILL-DEiR SIR: I am very
sorry to learn that yeu contemplate leaving
Louisville at the end of the present week. l
earnestly wish that your engagements else.
where might permit you to remain here for q
onger time.
Your sojourn among us, Dr. Lighthill, will be
long remembered by our people. 1t has been a
blessing to many. You have treated me and a
female member of my family with great success
You seem to me TO understand, as by intuition,
the character OF a malady and its best remedy
You have a multitude of patients in this city
and have not seen or heard of one to whom
you held out the promise OF relief without rem
dering it. Yeur practice among us has been a
brilliant success, and cheerfully recommend
you to my friends and the public at large as
physician deserving the utmost confidence.
Hoping you may live long to be a blessing to
additional thousands of the afflicted, am, very
truly yours,
GEORGE d. PRENTICE.

On Monday night Il party OF burglars
made descent on the mills Of George
W. Smith Il Brother, at Lockport, on
the Miami Canal, few miles north of
Dayton, and blew open their safe, and
carried off $500 in currency, certiti-
cate of deposit and notes and accounts
to the amount of about $4,000. Joseph
Davidson, who was in charge of the
office, at about eleven o'clock, was sud-
denly confronted by two men, who
menaced him with revolvers and threat
ened to shoot him if he made the slight
est alarm. They then captured his COM
rale, John Kneisly, who was in bed in
the room adjoising the office. Both
were then tied and gagged, and the
work of robbery completed. The rob-
beers were supposed to he from Cincin-
