The State Gazette, published at
Green Bay, Wis. contains an account
of a wonderful cure of blindness per-
formed upon Mr.. C. Z. Eames, form
orly of Colebrook, now a prominent
citizen Of Green Bay, and brother-in-
law of Messrs. Hiram A. and Kim
ball B. Fletcher, of Lancaster. 1t
seems that cataracts had formed on
both eyes; one was operated upon
but grew worse and finally had to be
removed. A year later he visited the
milwaukee Eye and Ear Infirmary and
had an operation performed upon the
other by Surgeon Houghman, which
became inhamed and so painful that
Mr.. Eames requested to have that re-
moved also; but before removing ii
DR.. Fl. thought he would try the expert
ment of lancing the ball. This caus-
ed discharge of matter and afforded
instant relief from pain and, strange
as it may seem, restored perfect
sight.

DEATH OF THE SIAMEsE TwINs.-A
dispatch from Richmond, Va, an
nounces the sudden death of the cele-
hrated Siamese twins, on Saturday
morning, at their residence at Mt.
Airy, North Carolina. Chang was part
ly paralyzed last fall, since which
time he has been very much debilitats
ed, and strongly addicted to drinking.
He had been quite feeble for several
days. Friday night Chang became
worse, and to the dismay of his friends
expired suddenly about four o'clock
Saturday morning. AS soon as it
was discovered that he was dead Eng
became SO terribly shocked that he
raved wildly, exhibiting signs of great
mental alteration. This attack was
followed by deadly stupor, and in
two hours Eng breathed his last
The wives and families of the twin:
are in the deepest grief, the children
many of whom are deaf mutes, ex
pressing their sorrow and bereave
ment in the most pitiful manner.

The President did not, AS expected,
send the Louisiana message to Con-

There are even reports that he will

Gen. Butler has introduced a reso-
luton looking to more stringent laws
for the suppression of fillibustering.
The Committee on Ways and
Means, Tuesday, by an almost unan-
imous vote, disagreed to Judge Kel-
ley's bill, providing for convertible
bonds. The subject, however, will
be presented to the House.
To the criticisms made to President
Grant on Secretary Richardson's fl
nancial policy he generally replies by
asking, why, if it is not correctly
based, does not Congress or the pub
lie agree upon better?"
A peculiar manifestation Of the
Grange movement was shown in the
bill which asked for an appropriation
for international crop and weather
reports in order to render the farmers

public by sailing under n stolen flag. The
founder of the Peabody Medic al Institute can
in no way be held responsible for this misuse
of the name of a reputable and well'known
curative establishment and legitimate medl-
cal institution. which has been from the start
specially devoted tothe treatment of nervous
arrangements and affections, from whatever
causes proceeding. During its existence
there have been issued from it several medi-
cal publications; quite recently a work on
Diseases of the Nervous system, which have
had almost worldwide circulation and pop
ularity. These publications sufficiently attest
the high character of the institution under
whose patronage these medical works have
been published Meantime il is gratifying TO
know that several of the inIpudent charla-
tans, who have stolen its name to cover their
nefarious practices, are getting their deserts
in the penal institutions of the Common

A bill has been introduced into the
Legislature at Albany to prevent
abuses in regard to insane asylums.
In the course of the remarks of a
member, it appeared that persons per-
fectly sane had been committed to
lunatic asylums upon the certificates
of a couple of physicians without
character or reputation. The purpose,
il is alleged, was to confne certain
parties whose sane and physical con-
dition would interfere with the pos
