persons OF high standing, who have
had the benefit Of DR.. Connaugton's
treatment and ofothers who praise
his skill and ability.
by invitation we made a visit to
Dr.. Connaught0n's Consultation
Parlor ON last Monday, We found
him affable and courteous, entirely
free In manner and conversation
from anything bordering on char
latanism, in fact, his appearance is
that OF an intelligent, scientific man.
thoi oughly versed in his profession.
and perfectly candid. While he
claims to be able to cure certain dis
eases il placed uader his care in
time, he did not, like many men,
pretenti0uS and less slsillful practi-
TONERS, profess on al fy to cure all.
Indeed, he assures us, THAT In MANY
cases, after thorough examination
he candidly informs his visitors chat
their case is beyond human skill.
! On the whole we have formed a
favorable opinion OF DIR. Connaught-
on; graduate OF the several Medical
Colleges of Europe he has the pro-
fessi0nal endorsement of many Of
the most distinguished physicians, of
| New York, Philadelphia, London.
Paris and other cities. Having made
diseases of the eye, ear and other
organs OF sense, together with chron-
ic affections Of the throat and lungs
his specialties, close study Of their
causes and the best treatment to be
employed in the cure, with an ex-
tensivc practice in the hospitals and
inRrniaries of Europe and Of this
country, have qualified him for the
successful treatment Of these and
other diseases, by methods peculiar
ly his own, the prompt efficacy and
reliability Of which is abundantly at
tested by the wonderful cures he has
made.
1t is, however, not our present
purpose to indulge in fulsome lauda-
ton OF DIR. Connaughtou. We deem
II tt duty to say what we do saw
here in justice to his professional
ability of which we lave highly sat-
isfactOry assurance. The Doctor
spent some time In Virginia and
West Virginia, and the Richmond
ond Lynchburg papers speak positive
OF the many wonderful cures he
there made during his soiourn II
their midst. On his departure frcne
Charleston, West Va, tho Courier,
published q long list Of certificates
from well-known citizens who avail
ed themselves of his skill, and adds.
"It is useless for us to recommend
DR.. Connaughton to the afflicted in
the section where he is going, as all
have read the thousands of testimO-
malls. The Home Testimony that
we have already published OF the
wonderful cures he has wrought end
universal satisfaction he has given
to all of his patieuts is quile sufli-
cient to convince them that he can
perform such cures as he processes
he can. DIR. Connaughton Is truly
blessing to suffering humanity.
wherever tho Doctor may 90 End
however long he may remain, and
however many poor unfortunates
who may place themselves under his
care, they have our assurance that
he is not practicing humbuggery and
that he is really very skillful ply
sicion, and Is more likely to furnish
them relief that any doctor we have
ever known. This is our honest
conviction, and we express it with
out intending in the least to detract
from any other physician. Bat his
opportunities have been far better
then most doctors. He has for many
years made speciality Of Chronic
Diseases. In fact, there is no doubt
that he heals more cases in six
months than other physicians in 4
life time. The Lynchburg Virginian
published long list Of certificates
from well-known citizens 1--WE COM
mend DIR. Connaughton to the
courtesies and confidence of the cit
liens of the different cities OF Vir-
ginia; where, il he has the opp0rtuni-
ty OF relieving the afflicted, as he
has with us, he will leave our sister
cities, his he Lyuchburg, bearing
with him the heartfelt gratitude Of
all who trust themselves to his
skill" The Lynchburg papers
speak also of the many miraculous
cures the Doctor effected in that
city, and on his departure from
Lynchburg the Republican says;
Duridg professional visit Of several
weeks DIR Connaughton has been con-
suited by hundreds Of patients vari-
ously afflicted, and in no instance
have we heard of any complaint or
dissatisfaction on their part. On the
contrary quito number have ex-
pressed to us their lively gratitude
for signal services rendered by the
Doctor, and some afflicted with life
long diseases have reported in person
at this Office, and announced them
selves cured. DIR Cennaughton is
certainly skillful surgeon, and his
0peI atiens for diseases and defects
of the eye have been numerous and
highly successful"
