THE PROHIBITIoNIsTs.

We have often, during the present cam
 paign and during other campaigns, pointed
 out what we believe to be a serious mistake
 of the Prohibitionists of this State, namely,
 their habit of throwing their votes away, so
 far as furthering the cause they have most st
 heart is concerned, and injuring the only party from which they can reasonably expect help. While they have been thus acting they might, without any departure from principle, have achieved much more than they have, if they had taken good advice and exercised common political wisdom.
 It is cheering to note that there are indica- tions of change, and that quite number of Prohibitionists will not throw their votes away this year, but will cast them for the Re publican candidates. Some of the prominent Prohibitionists of the State are speaking their minds concerning the matter, and are giving the members of their party sound ad- vice. The Rev. E. B. HiIlard for instance, says that it is suicidal for the Prohibitionists to attempt to run State or national tickets during this campaign. He is opposed to it, first, because it brings them into opposition with their best friends. If prohibition is ever carried by votes they will come from the Republican party; and Republicans are growing disgusted with the action of the Pro- hibitionists All that they have accomplished thus far is in case of close elections to help elect the Democrats. The anti-slavery cause is usually quoted, but while agitating the question in every possible way, the anti slavery men did not throw themselves into opposition to their best friends. The end finally came as a necessity of war, and not by any effort of the ballot. Another reason now urging the support of the Prohibi tion ticket by speaking, holding conven- tions and publishing papers, those men are very many of them paid by the Demo- cratic party for that very purpose. It is the knowledge of this fact, Mir. Hillard asserts, that has caused such falling off in the Pro- hibition vote in this State; from over 5000 it has dwindled down to almost nothing
 MT. Hillard was one of the founders of the Prohibition party in this State and has been one of it's most prominent members. He believes as strongly as ever in the temperance cause and in working for it's diffusion and growth, but he does not believe in action which tends to bring that cause into dispute Other prominent temperance men in this State-among them Rev. Alpheus Winter and Rev. O. J. Range-ta1e the same ground When such men as these oppose a separate Prohibition ticket, other good men who in tend to vote it may well pause and examine the situation.

NEW HAVEN, July 9. It gives me great pleasure to bear witness to the remarkable skill of Dr. Lghthill and the successful results of his treatment. For the past thirty six 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 it to consid- erab1e extent, and as it kept constantly in creasing upon me it subjected me to serious inconvenience One of Dr. Lghthilps pn- 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 con- p1aint and all its attendant troubles, and re- stored my hearing to it's former perfection and acuteness. know Dr. Lighthill's repu- tation is so well known that any recommen- feel like discharging duty to the afflicted in New Haven and vicinity to make this pub lie statement of my case, so that others may be enabled to embrace this opportunity of obtaining relief.
 My happy experience of the results of Dr. LighthilPs efforts has taught 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 a master of his profession

 NEW HAkEN, August 20, 1880.
 Permit me to add my testimony of Dr. LghthiIl's skill and success to that of Mir Cox and others, as have every reason to speak in terms of the highest praise of his successful efforts in my behalf. When a great sufferer. A catarrh which had af- ficted me for some time past, recently be- came so aggravated that it impaired my hear ing and gave rise to such agonizing pain and distress in my head that it nearly drove me insane. In fact, such result could scarcely have been otherwise if pr. Lighthil had not afforded me such marvelouEiy prompt relief. One treatment proved the efficacy of his method, for when left his office was in a condition of comfort and experienced the most inexpressible relief. That night rest ed comfortably, and in the morning felt like a new man. Ever, since then steady im- provement has taken place in my case, the most stubborn features yielding readily to Dr. Lighthill's skillful management The pain has entirely disappeared, my hearing is restored and a troublesome cough, which se- IAoOo1J ny 4IIouOS, 1S d1uOsG 0uGlTo- ly gone. My whole system, in fact, has been so much benefited that all my acquaintances notice the favorable change Like many oth- CTS, had spent much money and time in fruitless efforts to obtain relief before ap- piled to Dr. Lighthill, and I can therefore recommend the doctor with the confidence of a long experience. am an employe of the Boston and Air Line Railroad Company, and reside at 267 Atwater street, and will cheer fully substantiate in person what hsve here put in writing.

Third Congregational Church.
 To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 Dr. Stifer of the First Baptist church, preached in the afternoon from John 1, 16.
 This gentlemans style is pleasing and in- structive, marked by simplicity, impressive ness and many apt illustrations. It must be gratifying to many who are in sympathy with the leading doctrines taught in the churches (even if they are not fully identified with them) to observe that they are gradu- ally laying aside stiffness and formality, 8 few grains of kindness and condescension off, ten being with pound of theology.
 Architecture being an expression of thought at least in it's interior details and decorations the writer is led to observe that the lecture room of the Third Congregation al church has been transformed from it's old fashioned and primitive appearance into place in which taste, convenience and the social element are happily blended, place in which those who are so disposed can

 During the past dozen years of my stay in New Haven have found opportunity to visit many of it's places of interest, to enjoy many of it's numerous delightful drives, to stand upon West Rock, East Rock and Burwell's hill (the latter place the best outlook over the city, to my mind, for birds eye view) and to go to one other place, also, to which I always take visitors from out of town. AL though almost all, if not every one, of your numerous readers are as familiar with the place as the writer, yet never see much said about it in your paper, doubtless because it is a point so easy of access and so frequently visited I refer to the beautiful Lake Whit ney.

 It affords me great pleasure to add my tes- timony to that of others in favor of Dr.. Lighthil's success in the cure of catarrh. His treatment of my wife has proved so ben eficial that cheerfully recommend him to the confidence of the afflicted. The catarrh in the case of my wife was of long standing and in it's worst form, against which many remedies had been tried in vain. The very first treatment applied by Dr. Lighthill 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 a phy- sieian so skillful as Dr. Lighthill in the treat ment of that troublesome disease, catarrh.

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 Deafness, Catarrh, and dis eases of the Throat, Lungs and Nervous Sys- tenn, and it is with pardonable pride that he refers to the extraordinary success which att tended his efforts. His recent discoveries are of the highest practical importance, render ing treatment so efectual that relief is expe- rienced at once, and permanent cures are of- ten effected in the most stubborn and aggra- vated cases; and it is one of the happy fea- lures of his method that the applications cause neither pain nor distress, and can be readily administered to the most tinaid or nervous person. A candid opinion will inva- riably be given as to the possibilities of a cure, and no case will be accepted for treat ment which does not present a reasonable chance for success, while those who place themselves under Dr. Lighthilrs professional care may rest assured of receiving every ben- eft guaranteed by science, skill, and an ex- tensive experience.

The Register asks in relation to Hancock'e letter concerning southern claims: 'cNow will not the PaEEadSuna and the COURIER refer { to the matter editorially and inform their readers that rebel claims are, after all, only 8 Republican bugbear ?" If rebel claims are only Republican bugbear, there is no req son why General Hancock should not have said long before this what he intended to do about them if elected President. The decla- ration he has made was forced from him, and while it is what he ought to say, he evil dently would not have said it if there had been any way to avoid it. He is sure of the solid South, and he and his advisers thought
 it best to do something to allay the fears of
 northern men. If rebel claims are only a Republican bugbear that bugbear has been effectual in soaring Hancock into declaration
 which all good Republicans are glad to read.
 Their respect for Hancock is not, however,
 increased by his long delay in the matter,
 nor do they believe that his declaration is in
 accord with the wishes of large part of his
 party. They also know that with Garfield in
 the presidential chair no such pledge would
 be required, and they would feel safer about
 the ''bugbear."
 The Boston Herald heartily sympathizes
 with the Irish Republican movement and pre-
 sents some excellent reasons why that move
 ment should increase. The He1'al6 shows, as do some of the Irish-Republican orators, that
 in many respects the Republican citi-
 zens are in greater political harmony with the Republicans than they are with the Demo- crats. It says: ''The policy of the Demo- cratic party has always had a southern bias but what have the Irish in common with the southerners? So little that there are twice as many Irishmen in the State of Massachu- sets as in all the southern States put togeth- CT. The great bulk of these immigrants are dependent for an existence upon what they earn by manual labor, but this fact, in the eyes of their southern political associates, would be in the last degree condemnatory. If hundred thorough going southern Dem- ocrats, a hundred northern Republicans and an equal number of Irishmen were placed on some lonely isle of the sea, within six months the Irish on all practical questions would side in with the Republicans. In questions of government, such as national ism, protection to home industry, indirect taxation, the education by the state of those whose parent are not able to pay for their issues, the interests of the Irish-Americans are much more nearly allied with the Repub- ican party than with the Democratic"
