HOME EVIDENCE Of the Success of pr. Light hills Practice in New
 Haven. of NEr. T. M. Cox, No. S5A Ast.~JOEan Street,
 New Haven.
 
A Happy Experience.

(From the Journal and Courier, July 1o) We take pleasure in presenting to our read CTS the following card from Mir. T. M. Cox an old resident of New Haven, and gentle man highly respected and widely known i1 our business and social circles. The state ment of his happy experience of Dr. Light hills treatment is full of interest and will be deservedly accepted by our community with the utmost confidence Testimony of this nature and character reflects great credit on Dr. LighthilIs ability and skill, and cannot fail to establish him in public confidence.
 NEW HAVEN, July 9.
 It gives me great pleasure to bear witness to the remarkable skill of Dr. Lighthill and the successful results of his treatment. For the past thirty-si1 years had been troubled with catarrhal complaint, which was very annoying and often interfered with my swal- lowing and breathing Of late years it at- tackled my hearing, impairing 1t to consid- erable extent, and as 1t kaAt constantly in- creasing upon me it subjected me to serious inconvenience. One of Dr. Lighthilrs pa tients, finding himself greatly benefited by his treatment, advised me to place myself un- der his care and happily did so. Dr. Light hill effectually removed the catarrhal eom- plaint and all it's attendant troubles, and re- stored my hearing to its former perfection and aouteness. I know Dr. Lighthill's repu, tation Is so well known that any recommen- dation on my part is scarcely necessary, but feel like discharging duty to the afflicted in New Haven and vicinity te make this pub lie statement of my case, so that others may be enabled to emb--ce this opportunity ot obtaining relief.
 My happy experience of the results of Dr. Lighthills efforts has taaght me to appreci- ate fully the value of specialties in medical practice, and feel assured that few min- utes' conversation with Dr. Lightnill will con- vince the most skeptical of the fact that he is master of his profession.

The Democrats and the South.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 After reading some of the speeches of the patriotic Democrats made in New York We'd nesday night, am led to wonder wLy they do not call MT. Tilden President Tilden, if ''he was duly elected ?" Are they living these four years without President for their beloved country? They never say President Hayes, alas! So why do not the dear Dem- ocrats say President Tilden? It would do no harm and might comfort the dear old man to see it in print
 According to Mir Watterson the only ob- jection to honest Garfield" Is that he is a frst-rate Republican. That will do Will Randolph Tucker, who is so heartily in favor of free voting for every man. black or white, explain why it is there is not one vote in all theSouth for the party whose administration broke the chain that bound the Southern blacks, and that has made it possible for Mir Tucker to say that no white man would con sent to have. slavery re-established were it possible? Mir. Tucker virtually confesses that the people of the South are indebted to the Republican party for their present bright prospects, and he knows very well that the steady, onward movement of the Republican party for years to come is for the good of the whole country. Let there be fair vote and there can be no sectional election y No one believes that the whole Southern vote is to be freely cast for the stfgure-head" of one party. Nonsense! Nonsense Give every man his rightful chance and then see how they stand. Republicans are going to do their whole duty, if they can. The question is, if there are any in the old slave States-now so glad to be free Tucker l- will it be practicable for them to do their du- ty as voters and-iYe A PATRIOT.

Alabama will elect her State officers and Legislature to-day, and with a fair count the Democrats will be defeated. The Repubi- cans, Greenbackers and independent Demo erats outnumber the regular Democrats most decidedly, but the latter have the control of the election machinery, and they have done all they can to fix things" for the vote counting. The law provides that in the ap- pointment of election inspectors in the sev- eral counties the Republicans shall have cer- tain number, but the Democrats obey the letter and violate the spirit in giving the Re publican appointments to men who can neither read nor write.

And indeed, many weeks had not elapsed
before consumption's hectic flush was on her
cheek, and she sank slowly and without res
pining into an early grave.
George left her bedside scarcely moment
till her eyes closed forever.
After her death, George secluded himself
wholly from. the world; and at last reason
forsook her throne, and he became what you
saw. Mr.. Smith repented of his harshness,
but too late to secure to himself quiet con-
science, for he sunk to an untimely grave
with the sorrowful roget that money would
not purchase happiness.
Poor George will soon follow. The impress
of death is already upon him. The fatal ar
row is notched and waits only the impress Of
the faithful bowman to lay in the grave the
last remains of his fathers house.
Such was the story to which listened in
the churchyard and it seemed as if a spirit
lowered around that lowly grave, weeping for
the folly and wickedness of human pride.

The landlady was woman of Southern BIRTH
