Mesas. Rgus, Manier q Hall, NaahviHc
Tenn:
GENTLEMEN; DR.. LIGHTHILL expects to
visit your city soon, and for the benefit Of
the suffering wish to say, through you,
to your very extensive acquaintance in
this and other Southern States that DIR.
Lighthill can do all for the suffering that
can be afforded bv skill, science and a
comprehensive experience.
Indeed, DIR. L1ghthill performs some
almost miraculous cures. One case for ia
stance. Iplaced under his treatment, over
two years since, my niece, Miss Eliza
Mitchum, of McLemoresville, Tenn. She
had been suffering from a child with a
rising in the head, which had for years
emitted through the ear very ugly and
offensive corruption. Her case had been
treated by the best physicians of the coun-
try and had baffled the skill all. Dr..
Lighthill kept her under his immediate
charge for ten days and then sent her home
with remedies. She used the remedies as
directed and in three months was entirely
well and still continues in excellent health
1t may be proper to state that when Miss
Mitchum went under DR.. LighthilPs treat
ment she was unable to walk and, as her
friends thought, was rapidly approaching
death.
If yon have any friends among your ex-
Ieusive acquaintance suffering with any
chronic disease you may safely recommend
hem to DR.. Lighthill.
Yours, very respectfully,
E A. COLLINS !

A JeaHeus wife Seeks TO Avenge her

For some time past the wife of public
official has had reason to think her bus-
band too fond of female society away from

tive in exhibitions Of affection towards dis.
reputable women. The suspicious wife
therefore determined to keep a diligent
watch in order 70 discover the suspicious
persons and places visited by her trnant
lord. She at last succeeded in locating at
least one object of her husbands newly
developed affection, finding her occupy
ing second-slory rooms in respectable
part of the city. Unwilling or unable to
bear quietly and submissiVely what she
deemed an egregious outrage upon her
rights, the wife provided herself with a
stout whip of the cowhide sort and called
upon the woman she had 80 much reason
to hate. By an ingsniously devised plan
she managed 10 satisfy herself thai
she had really found the person shs
sought, and also ascertained the start

was enough. She who was "Lhric,
armed because she had her quarrel just, :
at once produced the instrument of cor

without more ado pitched into the errinI
female at lively rate. Outsiders knoV

The New York Post of the afternoon oil
the 9Th inst. says:
The week opens with the money market
moderately easy at 6 and per cent the
latter being the ruling rate. The banks,
however, are not generally strong, their
country depositors having for some time
past drawn literally upon them. Owing
to the scarcity of the smaller denomina-
lions of legal tenders, considerable
amounts of three per cent. certificates
have been presented to the Sub Treasury
for redemption: during the two latter
days of last week these footed up 81 ,300,-
600. The adjustment of the regular
quarterly statements is calculated to give
the market greater steadiness and to make
rates more uniform throughout the year.
Commercial paper moves slowly, ind the
