 Prepared to give his personal attention to the treatment and cure of Deafness, Catarrh, and Diseases of the Throat Lungs and Ner- vous System.
 For upward of twenty-five years Dr. Light hill has been at the head of an extensive met ropolitan practice, devoted exclusively to the relief and cure of those important ailments, and it is with pardonable pride that he refers to the extraordinary success which attended his efforts His recent discoveries are of the highest practical importance, rendering treat ment so effectual that relief is experienced at once, and permanent cures are often effected in the most stubborn and aggravated cases :; and it is one of the happy features of his practice that the applications cause neither pain nor distress, and can be readily admin istered to the most timid or nervous person. candid opinion will invariably be given as to the possibilities of cure, and no case will be accepted for treatment which does not pre- sent reasonable chance for success.
 In evidence of the success of his practice, Dr. Eghthil takes pleasure in submitting the following testimonials. A mass of similar credentials may be at his office.

The Late Mrs. Amanda Perkins of Wood
 bridge.
 To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 have thought that a somewhat fuller sketch of the life of the late Mrs, Amanda Perkins than has yet been printed is called for. Mrs Amanda Perkins, known by all her friends as Aunt Amanda" who died in Woodbridge, May 20th at the age of SC years was the widow of Mir. James Perkins, who died in 1862. Her maiden name was Peck. She was one of eleven children, but two of whom survive her. By her marriage with Mr. Perkins she had two daughters, Eliza Ann and Emily Maria Eliza was beautiful child, but died in her eighth year. Emily tian young lady, beloved by all her associates and the friends of her parents but she too died when twenty-one years of age. Her me moir, entitled Emily Maria, Twas written by her pastor, the late Rev. Samuel H. Elliot, and published by the American Tract Society. The loss of both their children had it's infiu- ence upon the parents, and had not little to do in leading MI. Perkins to give his property to benevolent objects-fve hundred dollars to sustain the choir in the church, a similar amount to the ''Perkins Academy and the remainder to the Home and Foreign Mis- sions and the Bible and Tract Societies. In these bequests Mrs. Perkins heartily acqui- esced.
 She was greatly esteemed in the commu- nifty for her friendly and genial disposition. It was a great pleasure to her to make her home agreeable to those who visited her, and for every one she had a hearty welcome. Her mind was very active, her memory wonder fully retentiye to the very last period of her life It was always pleasure to her visitors to listen to the recital of her life experience, every little incident being given with 8 minuteness truly surprising.
 She illustrated in her life the truth that each one is to accept the situation in which he finds himself, and make the most of it. With just what God has given him heis to work out the problem of his own life; and the true success in life for every one consists in being faithful to the condition in which he is placed and the highest attainment in life consists in doing nobly and the best where we can and with what we have to do.
 It may be said of Mrs. Perkins that she was true to the circumstances in which she was placed, and was conscientiously faithful in the sphere in which she moved. She was long member of the church, and main tained consistent and exemplary Christian walk. She was type of the New England

Judge Black knows as much about the Credit Mobilier business as anybody, and no one hos said more bitter things of Oakes Ames or the Congressmen who were proved or suspected to have had any comphcity with him in that matter. Moreover, there is not in this country more virulent partisan nor one who more reluctantly sees any good in political opponent. When, therefore, Judge Black pronounces General Garfield wholly free from suspicion of wrong doing in that affair, his testimony may safely be accepted AS conclusive

 Conn.

For the past twenty years I was afflicted with Catarrh, which affected my throat to such an extent as to make my life misery would wake up at night with 8 sense of sui location, as though some one was strangling me, expecting every moment to be my last. My suffering was so severe that I was afraid to go to bed, and often did not dare to- Ten years ago my hearing became also impaired from the effects of catarrh and gradually grew so bad that of late it was quite difficult for me to hear. Two months age placed myself under Dr. LghthilIs care, and there suit of his treatment has been truly wonder full The trouble in my throat is completely removed, sleep and breathe as comfortably as baby, my hearing is restored, and my health has so much inn proved that I feel like 8 new man. In fact such a change for the better has been wrought in myscase that thank God daily from the bottom of my heart for bringing Dr. Lghthill to Hartford and for directing me to him. am GA years of age and have lived in Hartford county nearly all my life, and if the blessings and prayers of an old man are of any avail, the happiness and pros perity of Dr. LighthiH Is assured.

From the Rev. ID. J. Clark.

Pastor Congregational Church. East En-
 ven, Conn.
 It affords me great pleasure to add my tes- timony to that of others in favor of Dr. Lghthill's success in the cure of catarrh. His treatment of my wife has proved so ben efcial that eheerfully recommend him to the confidence of the afflicted. The catarrh in the case of my wife was of long standing and in its worst form, against which many remedies had been tried in vain. The very first treatment applied by Dr. Lighthin per- manently removed some of the most trouble some features and the results ever since have been of the most gratifying character. Our people may congratulate themselves on hay ing at their command the services of physi- clan so skillful as Dr. LighthiH in the treat ment of that troublesome disease, catarrh. ~

EDITORIAL NOTES.

The census enumerators in Utah were un- able to determine whether they ought to classify the plural wives of Mormons mar ried or single, and in their dilemma they ap- piled to Superintendent Walker for instruc- tions. He directed that the women's answers be accepted in all cases and entered as they gave them.

From Col. D. A. Rood,
Proprietor of the United States Hotel,
 Hartford, Conn.

Hartford, Feb. II, 1880. Dr. E. B. Lghthir: ,
 Dear Sir-Prompted by feeling of justice to you and sense of duty to the public, take this method of expressing my grateful appreciation of the able and skillful manner in which you treated my wife for Catarrh When placed her under your professional care she suffered so severely that she could scarcely obtain any rest at night, but your first application afforded decided relief and your subsequent treatment has proved per feet success. In the course of my experience I have seen good deal of physicians and medical practice, but must confess that your method of treatment for Catarrh is superior to anything that has yet come under my ob- servation, and in fact is so rational and effec- tive that it must commend itself at once to every unprejudiced mind.
 Yours truly, D. A. ROOD.

Six years ago became hard of hearing, and ever since then the difficulty increased so that it annoyed me very much, and obliged me to listen closely in order to get along. 2 In this condition I placed myself under the treatment and care of Dr. Lighthin, whosuc- ceeded in restoring me to perfect hearing, and thereby earned my lifelong gratitude.

Ingenious Frenchmen seem determined to electric light. M. Jamin, a member of the French Institute and professor in the Ecole Polytechnique, has lately exhibited what seems to be the best electric light yet. The points of his experiments are that his lamps are lighted and reighted instan- taneously and automatically if one of the lamps goes out the others contin- ue to burn as if nothing had happened; and if one of the cartoons is consumed anoth- CT one takes it's place and the light is not lost for an instant; the light may be graduated at will, is easily divided and can be conducted to an almost indefinite distance Edison will have to relinquish the patent medicine busi- ness if he expects to beat the French.

While the members of the Sixteenth As sembly District Republican Campaign Club were engaged in raising Garfield and Arthur banner in front of No. 444 Second avenue, a boy was born on the premises to one of the members of the club. The father, ill his joy, insisted that the boy should be named after the candidate for President, so the president of the club, Thomas Bettridge, officiated on the occasion, and christened the child James A.

 The present is a good time to bring to the notice of an apprehensive public devices to secure greater degree of safety for those who go down to the in ships. Rev. Dr. Haskins, of Cambridge, Mass, has patent for an apparatus which it is believed would be very effective in saving life at sea. It is floating vessel, in the shape of an inverted balloon, which is entirely covered, the en- trance being by man-hole in the upper part reached from a platform wholly surrounding thexessel, and from which small iron ladders drop down to the water. Inside, arranged around the widest part seats and berths, and under the covered bottom is space for provisions. Ventilation is provided for by an ingenious and novel de- vice. The boat is adapted for shoal or deep water by ballast weight which is raised or lowered from within It is fur nished with keel and rudder. Its peculiar feature is its method of motion This is au- tomatic. It is obtained by wave or air wheels attached to shafts which are connect ed with small propeller The principle of the wheels is that whatever way the wind blows or the waves move the motion is always in the same direction and under control of the rudder. The boat can be made of metal, and the size can be regulated by the needs of the vessel to which it belongs. It is proof against fire, always rides upright, is easily dropped from the ship, and can be handled by any one who knows how to turn crank It is simple in construction and perfectly safe even in the rolorheSt Sea

Don Camerons course in preventing the confirmation by the Senate of the appoint ment of ex Governor Hartranft to be collec caused much bitter feeling on the part of Hartranft and his friends, and will tend to strengthen the movement led by Grow and McManus to overthrow the Cameron dynasty in the Republican party of Pennsylvania. Cameron when consulted about the confir- nation, let it be understood that he would not forward 1t unless the President nominat- ed man for the vacancy in the postofice who was acceptable to him, to be confirmed at the same time If the new postmaster suited him he would make no objection to Hartranft. No nomination for postmaster was made, and Cameron arranged that no recommendation regarding Hartranft should be made by the Committee on Commerce, to which that nomination had been referred. It is said that Grow aspires to succeed Wal lace in the Senate.

ELEVEN smallpox cases were reported to the
Health Department yesterday tsays the San Fran
cisco Bulletin of November 5thl and thirteen up to
half-past ! O'Clock to-day. This makes seventy
four cases reported this week. The victims are
from various sections of the city and mostly
adults The type of the disease is generally mild
with an occasional case in the malignant form.
The Offices of the Public Naccinators are crowded
from morning till night, mainly with women and
children to be vaccinated. The Health Office is
kept open all night, and smallpox patients are
sent TO the Twenty -sxth street Hospital as soon
as possible aftsr being reported to the Health Off,
Ger and he passes upon the nature of the disease.
OF course, many cases are reported which prove to
be cticken-pOx or some other mild disease. Most
of those attacked have been negligent in not being
vaccinated or revaccinated. Under the circum-
stances 1t behooves all persons who not already
protected by vaccination TO be vaccinated at once,
which. If 1t does not prevent an attack of small
poI. will greatly modify the disease and almost
certainly insure life.
THE vote for President in California is so close

publican State Central Committee the figuring is
close. One table gives Hancock 245 majority and
another 81 with precincts In several counties TO be
heard from. The Republicans do not give ii mp,
because the corrected returns from hour to hour
change the figures one way and another. If the
