General Grant.
The Neuralgia Troubles which add
to his Torture.
A KIND FEELING TOWARD THE. OLD MAN
AMONG BOTH PARTIES, AND
BOTH SECTIONS.

Much IF the bitterness which success
full life produces, especially among those
who have held ii prominent political part
in the affairs Of the nation, Seems to have
died out since General Grant, aged. help
less, insolvent, and seemingly about to
die, has again come prominently before
the American people. The daily bulletin
of his health is perused eagerly by his
present friends and former enemies, and.

fteling of sorrow that the old General.

is represented in the dispatches. as sitting
at a table with his head bound up, and
every nerve vibrating with neuralgia,
writing his second volume of military
"reminiscences, lest time shall not permit
him either to finish the second or revise
the first. He has had one or two teeth
drawn, reports Say, to relieve neuralgia,

Capt. John Orr, Pearlington, Miss, has
been a most intense sufferer from facial
neuralgia for over twenty years. He has
had seventeen operations performed on
the nerves-that is, had them divided, cut
off close to the bone from which they
emerge. But this never did him any
gnod; the most excruciating pain con-
tinued without the least interruption. He
often wished for death to relieve him of
the intolerable pain. The best ply sicians
failed to relieve him. They finally advised
him consult Drs. Hartman s. Miller, al the
St. Charles Hotel New Orleans, which he
did. They prescribed PERUNA. and in
less than a month was entirely relieved
of the pain.
Mrs. Elizabeth Kenner, 9s Lauel street,
New Orleans, has been one of the greatest
sufferers from neuralgia of the face dur

of. From morning to night, and from
night to morning, there was one constant
racking, tearing, burning pain, extending
clear around her head, and deep down
through every muscle, tooth and bone in
her face No rest and no sleep. All
physicians failed to Relieve her, as Will as
all RENE dies. She was constantly in The
most agonizing despair. She called on
DR.. Hartman, who prescribed PERUNA
for her, aud now every pain has left her.

live to enjoy his retiring pension for
many years.
