Wonderful.

From the Pittsburgh Dispatch, Sept. 18th, 1880.
"Very seldom do we read of an actual
case Of recovery, where hope had alto
gether been lost, to parallel that which
was Monday investigated by Dispatch
reporter, who had heard in various quar-
ters persons talking to their friends Of
cure, seemingly little short of marvellous,
that had been performed. The plain facts
in the case referred to, without exaggera-
ton, are these, as they were learned from
the mother of the young man, his pastor
and other persons well known in the COM
munity:
William Lincoln Curtis is the name
of the young man in question. He is now
employed at II. X. Porter s. Co.'s loco
motive works in Pittsburgh, Pa. A year
ago he resided with his mother on Grant
street About that time he went to bed
one evening with violent pain in his
shoulder, the result, he thought, of a cold.
The next morning the shoulder was
greatly swollen, the pain was intense, and
aches were felt all through his system.
His case was speedily developed into
violent form of chronic rheumatism,
among the first notable features of which
was the paralysis of his left arm.
''lIe gradually grew worse, and in few
months the elbow and knee joints and
both ankles became enormously enlarged
In March last the cheek bones began to
enlarge, and upon his left side particu-
larry, spreading his face out of all resem-
blance to his former self. The pain in all
his joints became intense fever, with its
deteriorating effects, was now added, and
he became rapidly reduced to the semblanc of
y skeleton, while vitality reached its lowest
su-h an indscribable character that those who
mnst loved him sometimes thought it would be
better if he was called away. At this time
physicians well known in Pittsburgh informed
his parents thlt they could give no hopes of
recovery. ..H
"The young man finally commenced taking
that wonderful medicine, PKRuNA. In two
weeks quite change for the better, was per-
| cepthe. In six weeks all the enlargement had
BEEN reduced completely, while in spirits and
strcu rth the patient was quite as well as he had
| ever been in his life Nearly three weeks ago
| he resumed work as machinist ut his old place,
| able to perform as much labor as ever ms life.
"The mother of Willie Curtis, in stating all
| these facts, said Indeed l can not look upon
| the cure much less than miracle. do not
| hesitate in sounding the praise of PsRUNA, and
| In recommending It to alliny 1ricnds.''
| The pastor Of the church where the young
| man attended Sabbath school was visited, and
| he readily confirmed the facts of the deformed
| bones, the emaciated condition from disease,
and of the doctors having given him up. He

In Executive Eessi0n

The executive session Of the Senate
was q very short one. The cases OF a
number OF postmssters whose prede-
cessors were suspended were reported
favorably. 1t was stated that they
were the cases OF men against whom
no charges have been received from
any source, and in respect to the ma
iority OF whom the suspended officials
nave recommended confirmation. This
is in compliance with an informal un-
derstanding of the Poetofiee Commit
tee made some days ago with regard
to such cases. An adverse report was
made in the case of an Iowa postmas-
ter, and was ordered to be printed in
confidence for the use of the Senate.
The committee embody in the report
a letter from the nominee, who charges
that the Republican Incumbent had
been publishing newspaper in Ger
man and another in English and
thereby doing much good for the Re-
publican parry. He (the pref ent nom
inee) says that if he could have
the Office he, too, could publish a
newspaper or two for the benefit
Of the Democratic patty and that he
was willing to devote the emoluments
Of the office to this purpose. Slips
from the writer's paper in support OF
the Democratic party ere quoted. The
committee also refers to the circular Of
the Post master-General and the utter
ances # the President with regard to
the exercise of partisan influence by
office.holders. The committee says it
reports the case adversely in orderto
aid the administration in carrying out
its policy. The case OF the internal
revenue collector for the Dii trict oil
Vermont was reported iavorably. A
written report was made declaring in
substance that the committee had
heard from the Secretary of the Treas
ury in response to its inquiry that
there were no charges sgsinst the out
going official, and that he was removed
for political reasons alone.
