The Elckmond chamnleon eet, which Ukee its tone from iU furroundiEgi, nd U Union under Union tnpice, anJ ieceskn vherr Jel Dvii rule Richmond, published the fol lowing on the 11th inst: " f We in grieved to learn of the very serious indisposition of lire. General Bor ertX.Iawj at her residence la that city. The great disaster which haf overtaken the Confederate armi hai ud nerved the great wife of the great General quite, and we do not wonder that her finely-strung nerves should give way in the straggle. Since the occupation of. Richmond the Union Authorities have acted with, the most scrupulous regard for the feelings of Mrs. General Lee. At first a colored guard was p)aced in front of the house on Frank lin street, but npon it being represented that the exhibition was an insult to the lady of the mansion the colored guard was witadrawn and a white guard substituted." The "nerves" of this "great wife of tie great General" are indeed "finely strung." But it is beyond our comprehension to un derstand why even the sensitive organiza tion of Mrs. Lee, "unnerved" as it is by the "great disaster which has overtaken the Confederate arms" should be shocked because black soldiers are detailed to guard her house. Her husband, the "great Gen eral'' whom the Whig boot-licks as nnblush- ingly now as when he held Richmond, was the first and firmest advocate of en listing negro soldiers for the support of the insurrection. By his individual efforts and recommendations he procured the pas- sage of the negro-arming bill through the rebel Congress. Nor can Mrs. Lee, tend ed from her youth by negro slaver, object seriously to the sight of blacks. It must be the Federal uniform which affects her "fine ly strung nerves," and, and as our officials re so obsequious, it would be well, perhaps, for them to substilude Confederate for Union, as they have already exchanged black for white, soldiers, in the special guard detailed to do honor to the wife of a forsworn traitor. In all seriousness, we do not know which to be most amazed at, the insolence which prompted this objection to our negro sol diers, or the servility which yielded to it. That Mrs. Lee had a guard at all that she even dared to remain in Richmond when Union troops occupied it shows the humanity of our government in strong contrast to the record of the South. Facts like these stand (fat in bold relief against the dark background of Southern outrage against the massacre of Fort Pillow gainst the inhuman interment of the no ble Colonel Shaw, (when he fell at the head of his regiment while assaulting Fort Wagner) in the common trench which held the slain againsyhe brutal response made to his friends, when they made the usual request for his body, " He is buried with his niggers," against the terrible outrages upon our dead, at Bull Run, and our living, at Andersonville and Salisbury and against the thous and crimes of the traitors who have maintained the rebellion. But le niency can be abused, and Mrs. Lee has shown that she understands how to abuse it. The wife of a traitor, himself respons ible, as the commander-in chief of the rebel armies, for the outrages we have re ferred to, it seems incredible that her in solence should be carried to the pitch of openly expressed contempt for any Union soldiers, white or black, wearing the uni form which her husband had disgraced by deserting. And it seems yet more inered- jble that this arrogant demand should have been humbly granted by the servile officials in Richmond. Whoever they are, they are unfit for their positions, and the nation, insulted in the persons of its black soldiers, demands that they be removed. Why Gold is Firm. Gold still remains at about 146. It touched 147 on March 24th, which was just after the arrival of Sherman at Golds boro, and three days before the advance by Grant against Richmond was determined upon. Its permanence at about that figure ever since seems to show that gold had been run down by panic piior to Grant's recent successes so as to require the whole weight of those successes to keep it at the figure then reached, or else that the gold brokers, with superhuman foresight, dis counted the capture of Richmond and the surrender of Lee's army, or, finally, that some cause, outside of the military situa tion, controls the price of gold. The last theory is probably the correct one. One month ago gold stood at 200. The total paper currency of the country ig estimated t 900,000,000. By the fall of gold to 147 the present purchasing power of C 70,000,. 000 to-day would equal that of the whole 900,000,000 one month ago; this would re lease the difference, 230,000,000, as a surplus over and above what the wants of the community would require to transact to-day the same amount of business which one month ago would have required the whole. In other words, gold is still kept np to 147 by the fact that as greenbacks have increased in purchasing power, the quantity needed has decreased ; but, the quantity afloat not being diminished, the surplus has in part the effect of a new is sue. The state of things points plainly to the expediency of gradually funding the currency. This the pec pie will begin to do henceforward, by paying into the Treas ury in taxes and for loans more currency than the Government, with the diminished expense budget incident to peace, will have to reissue in payment of its expenses. The moment the Government begins to receive more .currency than it reissues, the cur rency begins to fund itself by the laws of supply and demand. This will grow until we again resume a specie basis, which will probably be one of the earliest results of peace. i The specials of the New York papers representing that JsfT, Davis had requested permission from Grant to leave the coun try are too silly to be believed. Je has thousand chances of escape to one of capture, and even if his case were hope less he knows too much to appeal to Grant on the subject. He' knows very well that Grant has no power to let him leave the country, and no right to do anything with him, if captured, save to tarn him over to the psoper tribunal -to" be tried for high treason."-'"1" " : ' Why Gold is Firm. THE PULPIT ON THE THANKSGIVING. A CLAD PEOPLE. SERMON BY THE REV. J. A. THOME, DETROIT STREET CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH.

There is an over flowing, outburating, irrepressible spirit in it, tnat laugca, sings, glories, shouts, re joices every way.. All the elements of radiant joy and resonant irratulation are embodied in this wondrous little vde. It is an alabaster vase full of precious oint ment, very precious, and ready to be bro- aen ana outpoured on any great occasion of gladness. We break it to-day and pour its perfume on the feet ol Christ, in tesu- mony ol our gratitude, ana tne nation love unto the Lord, the God of its salva tion. Note the outflowing contents. Deliverance from grievous eaptivity the sense of liberation, and of restoration gradually realized, tint a pleasing dream, then vivid joy, that could not be con tained, breaking forth in laughter, swelling out in song. These demonstrations attract attention ; the heathen, their late persecu- tors, oppressors and despiters, begin to be astonished: tney are torcea to say, "im Lord hath done great thines for them.' 1 key, mn the heathen, see the hand of the Lord in so eret deliverance: tney see reason tor their joy; and they quake for themselves, lor they have no Lord who is able to do great things for tnem. Then the proud response, proud at once and pious, proud heathen-ward, piooslxird ward; uThe Lord, yes the Lord our God, hath done ffreat things for tt$!" The recognition of the high source of their blessings enhancing vastly their joys. "Whereof we are glad !" glad that the Lord hath done these great things, glad that we are the recipients of his favors. - glad - for the eie at thincs 1 Then a most becomintr tnoughtmlnesi, sober element, imparting substance to the gladness, prayer for fuller deliverance, completing the liberation from hated cap- tivitv. completing me restoration to ior- tifled oriviliees: "Turn again our captivi tv. O Lo.d.as the streams in the South." Then comes reflection, bringing the full assurance that always divine benefits, in redundant harvests, shall follow diligent sowing of seed watered with tears, mingled tears of sadness and supplication. "Xhey that sow in tears shall reap in joy." . This sweet evangel is repeated, in a magnified form, well befitting Its rich import : "He that goelh forth and reapeth, bearing pre cious seea, enaii aououets come again wuu reioicing, bringing, sc. jV5y friends, this is the psalm assuredly for us to-day; though it be not one of the prescribed lessons lor uood x riday. This is the day of our national gladness. Oar captivity has been turned: our captivi. ties. I may say; for the rebellion has been a captivity, tne war nas been captivity. slavery has been captivity, to the nation as weU as to the negro, and the dread of a lust and aveDging God has been a captivi. ty ; and the two last captivities have been npon the nation for more than seventy years, the term of the long J ewish captiv ity. This is the day of our Liberation from all these bondages; this is the day of our freedom. .Friday I uood J! riday I irnday, the black day in the calendar of supersti tion, is brightened forevermore in this year of grace 18b5. uood jrriday, the solemn day in the calendar of churchmen, devoted to Fasting and sadness, is now Better Fri day, consecrated to Festivities, Thanksgiv ings and jubilant Gladoers. The events of this auspicious day teach us, what so many happy events during the Christian Bra have taught or should have taught the reopie oiuod, wnonave been too slow in learning, that the crucifixion of the iron of God, the transaction of all in the past most fruitful of blessings to the world, is not to be commemorated with mourning and fasting, but rather with rejoicing and Praise. "Day of all the week the best," of all the year the beet, for this special Thanks giving, ana tor tne memorable transaction occurring in Charleston Bay; because it associates these national events with the causative event of the crucifixion, and blends the Flag of the Republic with the Banner of the Cross, which is henceforth to be the recognized Union, pledge of union among tne reopie. Things sundry and most signal converge to give importance to this day, and to swell the tide of our common gladness. The lau ot Aicnmona, tne naughty Baby lon of the JSebellion the surrender ot Lee, the rebel chief, and his army, the mgnt oi uavis, ana the dispersion ot the heads of the Confederate Government, now a miscreant monster of the past, these late achievements, with their sure and speedy sequel, the cessation of hostilities, usher ing in a wuned-tor peace, and restoring Union, and ending slavery, quicken the people's pulse, and cause the public heart to throb witn gratetui joy. The high in spiration thus produced, heightened by the splendid military successes of Ueneral Grant and other great commanders, which culminate in mis sublime triumph, and in. tonsified by the fortunate escape from a nnai sanguinary battle, which has been ap- prenenaeo, wouia aemana a general thanksgiving. But there is a particular act, oi national import, now transpiring, wnicn especially sets apait mis day to ser vices of religious praise, and scenes of so cial gladness. The nation, through its highest functionaries, is doing just now a deed which with its simplicity combines a sublimity that makes it illustrious, a deed in which every loyal heat exults, and wnicn every pious Heart regards with devout plea ure and renewed confidence in tne lulure of the Republic Yea, the nation is at this moment doing a his toric deed which coming generations shall admire to the end of time; a momentous deed on which the eyes oi Christendom are intently fixed. Within sight of the proud, but now prostrate city of Charleston, the Queen ot Secession, sitting in sackcloth and ashes, the Kepublic is planting the starrv ensign, radiant with victory, on the heights ol Fort Sumter, whence it was first lowered in dishonor by the obscene hands of trait ors. A vast concourse of patriots, a great cloud of witnesses, compacs and crown those scarred battlements, animated with a mighty enthusiasm. . In that bay, where was tne outbreak oi the horrid rebellion, whore forts and batteries opened upon the steamer Star of the West, freighted with stores for the beleaguered band in the onlv i r , j : i . . . . - ivy! uirtrwB, auu buuii rtxiuceu matstronp uuiu iu uie wiw uay ues in is aay a neet ot steamers thronged with citizens of the North: and Major General Robert Ander son, the brave defender of the fort when the storm of civil war burst resistlessly upon it, is now unfurling to the winds the Old Flag, which went down before that ter rific storm. Four years have intervened, years of commotion, in which star after star rushed from the galaxy of the Union into the chaos of secession ; years of carnage, in which thousands of freemen have fallen glorious ly in which hundreds of thousands of rebels have ignominiouely perished, in which millions of bondmen have pasted through the red sea to freedom; years of rapine and ruin, oi sunenng ana sorrow immeasura ble, years crowded with grand events brilliint with imperishable exploits, distin guished by the olash of military ideas, and the triumph of righteousness. Onhi four years, yet the world has bounded century onward and upward ! And now this short cycle is completed ; and the Flag that fell, and drew down with it tha o-rwi came ot the Republi'then yen, and J, I n : nd all of us fell down, and bloody treason flourished over ns," goes np t. -'. " -1 exalts the Nation s honor to the , i. up rise our spirits, jubilant with Priae to God. The stars that dropped like blasted figs are re-ascending to their stations, and the whole constellation begins', to be more effulgent than ever. Such is the import of this day. This Good Friday is the festival of JttaKS. It is the day for the stars to shine at noon tide as they did, it is said, when the Pres ident was delivering his Inaugural. You remember what a showing of "colors mere was throughout the loyal North at the first glorious uprising of the people. S many were the banners, so did they wave from church steeple, and doors and window, so did they flutter in every breeze, and gleam on every street, and drape ev ery hall, that we wondered whence they all came, and whether those that disaoDeared in the regions of Seceasia had not by some magic re-appearea in tne faitnml state. It was taiid a magnificent spectacle, and chiefly because it was emblematic of the radiant spirit of patriotism that flamed np everywhere. The four years' cycle brings back the national display of colors. This is the Flag Festival Day. Now, thanks to Uod, the stars and stripes wave on Sam' tes battlements again. Proud day, glad day, Good Friday, hail I See the flag un furled on Sumter's walls I Thousands of eyes gaze on it with rapture, millions of eyes, rrom tne niiis ot new bngiaca, irom the shores of the Lakes, from the .prairies of the Northwest, from the peaks of Colo rado, irom the mountains ot uaniorma, from the plains of Oregon, are strained to descry the vision. . Svery face is turned to Fort Sumter, and every ear listens as if to catch that loud acclaim witn wnicn toe flag is greeted, npon parapet and deck, and shore and sea, around. Now is the Festival of Flags. Lo, lee ! The stars and stripes float in every south. xn breeze, from cope and castle turret, from custom-house and ceurt-house, from ptison and palace. In Charleston, in Sa vannah, in Wilmington, in Petersburg, in Richmond, shines the starry emblem ot the Union. From Fort fisher, from Castle Thunder, the Federal flag flashes saluta tions to the colors Ma jor General Anderson plants on Fort Sumter. And in every har bor and bay and gulf, and on every sea, the flags of our iron-clads and merchant ships, streaming aloft, flutter greetings to the Old i lag raised to its place on Sumter. Upon all this stir of banners, doubtless, heaven looks down well oleased and bends propitious over the passing scene of Sumter. Angels know the import of that unfurling flag! They survey its world-wide mission. They per ceive with joy that it is not henceforth to flaunt scorniully and mockingly in the face of the slave, for South Carolina even is from this Good Friday devoted to Freedom. To the eye of Uod that old flag wears new face; for whereas before its fall it waved abhorrently " O'er the land of the lash and the home of the slave I" Here after the prophetic anthem shall be real lzed, ana "That Star Spangled Banner ia triumph shall ware, O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave I" In the same All-seeing eye there was no doubt a moral comeliness in the degra dation of that ensign four years ago. If it was struck down and trailed in the blood dyed dost, it was because it had given the national protection ana sanction to a sys tem of gory oDDression which made one class chattels, and therefore made the rest ot the DSODle despots and desperadoes. In the sentiment ot a just God, and of just men, the flag that gave its stars benlgnant ly to white tyrants, black with crime, and its stripes inescorably to black slaves, white in innocency, ought to fall. We did not so regard it at the time; but now, with the light ot these tour years illumin ing oar eyes, we all see the fitness there was in the first defiant blow of treason be ing struck, effectively too, at the flag which had been the favoring Federal witness of the fiendish barbarities, the insolent dicta tions and malignant menaces of the slave- ocracy; the nag that had guarded such treason-natchers as Ualhoon, Jtlayne, Hammond, Pickens, Brcok? and Keitt. The comparison may belittle the subject, but it is nevertheless true that, like poor dog Tray, that ill-starred banting suffered the inevitable consequences ot being in bad company. It was sadly worried and vilely trampled on by the blood-hounds, which bad been nurtured under its folds. If it was distained in its fall, it was stained be tore it tell. The mark of the prison- house discolored its azure. The tears from the cotton fields, rising in mist, obscured its stars; the blood-red scores on scourged backs of men and women dimmed its stripes. It was well, too, that that flag which overlooked the foulest dens of op pression, ana was most denied, should be tne nrst to be leveled and trailed ; and that after it others should be struck down throughout the slave-cursed South. This was a part of the humiliation which retributive justice had to inflict on our guilty nation. It was severe indeed; it toucnea tne people j patriotism, it wound- ed their public pride, it suffused into the crimson of mortification cheeks that ought to nave oiusnea oetore at the country's shame and iniquity. Better the t&idy blush than persistent braggadocio shout ing, "Our country, right or wrong I" We have been chastised sorely, but soundly. That flag which to-day retakes its airy station nas been thoroughly purg ed of moral defilements, and the marks of violence it may still bear shall henceforth be salutary mementoes of the dark past. We should not, our children's children should never, forget the hole of the pit whence we have been digged, the miry elay out of which oar feet have been taken. We shall not so long as that, soiled, riven, flag flcati over Fort Sumter ; so long si a relic like this I hold in my hand re mains of the shattered staff which bore that hag alott and tell with it. Here let me say that among the thanks givings appropriate to this day one should be rendered in the fullness of our hearts for the fiery purgation of the flag, which has cleansed it of pro-slavery turpitude, and made it fresh and pure, the stainless svm. bol of Liberty. This is conspicuous in the planting ot the banner on thn walla nf iron Duuiierr tne old nag Has a new in- auripuon i kiktsbi f reeaom t The rais ing ot the ensign on that battered'Fort i the signal for the raising of it everywhere iu me Duutn, everywnere in tne Kepublic, nuu uiowuia eiunutu inscription. Thus we reach the height of the trans action now passing into history in Charles ton bay. It is a national act, involving the virtual simultaneous serformar.ee of tne same in every place where our flag floats, whereby a fuller idea of human rights is symbolized in the Stars and Stripes. Let us thank God for this ; that, through his own terrible translation, our national ensign has come at length to bear a clear significance, free from ambiguitv. And this thanksgiving embraces the sub stance as well as the symbol; for the grand fact is that the nation itself has undergone the happy translation from thn old jargon of freedom and slavery unintel ligibly mixed in one charter, to simple, emphatic Freedom, the sublime watchword of the Republic, North and South. Another theme of thanksgiving involved in the flag-raising of to day, indicative, too, of its national bearings, is that hereafter every Southern port and city and planta tion is free to the footsteps of every Ameri can citizen, from whatever section or state he may hail, unobstructed travel, free in tercourse, free speech in Charleston, and of course in every other place south of Mason and Dixon's line this fa the proc lamation that goes abroad with the unfurl ing of Anderson's flag to-day. - Can you compute the bearings of this good word ? Can yon realize that there is to be no more surveillance of northern men happening in southern cities ; no more searohing of trav elers' bagga;j ' for suspected incendiary pamphlets; n more odious espionage lurk- ing at key-holes and blinking in bar-rooms to catch some inadvertent syllable in favor of liberty ; no more embargoes in the market place, in the pulpit, in the parlor, on tree utterance, the American a birth right; no more threatening, driving -ou' tarring and feathering of Yankee school masters, tor a slip of the tongue or stroke of the pen ; no more imprisoning of northern women for teaching children to read the Bible ; no more incarcerat ing in dungeons and .renitenti&ries ministers of the . gospel for pointing sable inquirers to the xiortn star; no more summary executions of Lynch Law upon unoffending strangers; no more ban- moment ot Mission aries, expatriation of too. faithful ministers, censorship of the Press, demolition of seditious types, mur der of editors on the border, caning of Sena tors in congress, and expulsion of Repre sentatives ot Northern Stales going South to test the legality of arbitrary and deroga tory proceedings there? Has it entered into your thoughts that very soon you may go at large over the South, and speak forth your sentiments there as fully as you do at home? Why, to-day Henry Ward Beecher m talkie g on the heights of Sum ter as boldly as be is wont to talk on Brook lyn heights; the abolition preacher has ex changed his Plymouth pulpit for that of Palmetto parapet; and no bowie-knife or revolver leaps from the bosom of intoler ance to use nis uie i That speech, which the Nation is i in patient to read, whatever merit of matter or manner of logic or rhetoric it may possets, will have a superlative interest in the fact that it will be the forerunner of Free Speech in the South. Where Beecher has spoken, who may not speak with impu nity? Does a United States war-ship bear him to his platform, and protect him while he holds torth '. So will the U nited btates safeguard surround every citizen of the North who may hereafter have a worthy message to bear to southern ears. Charleston is open. Savannah is open. Richmond is opehi to Garrison, to Phillips, to Douglas, and to the rest of us agitators, albeit now our occupation's gone. What message could we bear bouthward here after, but that of brotherly unity ? "W hat but greetings of peace and good will and glory to uod in tne nighest l The unfurling of the flag on Sumter is also an invitation to all skillful artificers, to cunning mechanicians, to enterprising business men, to intelligent agricultural ists, to enlightened educators,in the North, to go to the sunny South, carrying with them their Northern principles, and to built up on the ruins of patriarchal institu tions those puritan polities which have blessed New England and 'the West. There is grand work, and ample scope for constructive genius in every department, and for creative art, and for all civilizing agencies and refining influences. There the free schools will sow the seeds of intel ligence, thrift and order. There the Col lege will furnish adequate facilities for the liberal culture of the youth. TheTe litera ture will have its organs, its depositaries, its authorities. There philosophy will have its seats, its seers, its schools. - There puritan Christianity will have her free Democratic churches, and her spiritual worship.

And while it attracts the people of the Old World, that old flag that heralds the re union ot tne states, without sectionality, bravely shakes its warnings at those J.a- paan powers whose dishonorable policy during the war hag inflamed toward them the animosities of both sections. At home it is a Flag of Friendship; abroad it is a Flag of Friendship to the masses, but of ir en ace to the monarchs. In this vein, I almost tremble at what the ceremonial at Fort Sumter may foreshadow. Yet. whv should I tremble? If "the sword of the Lord and of Gideon" have still ether work to do, on a grander scale, the achievements will be more and grander, and will bring new and more genial Thanksgivings.

This is the ultimatum from Fert Sumter. No PeODle on the globe have a richer inheritance in the events of to-day than the humblest of ail peoples, wno have hitherto been not a people, bat now are and hereafter shall be a great people. We of the North have in that unfurled flag the pledge of personal seourity in the streets of Charleston ; they ot the South have ia it the promise of prosperity ana progress under new aus pices; but the colored race have in it the pledge of recognized manhood and the promise ot chartered citizenship. .

Hark I We hear the heathen aav. tha heathen north and south, the heathen in Canada and across the water, in Rnirland and France: "The Lord has done great things for them." Oh, ye heathen abroad, who have said Aha, the bubble's burst? Who have tendered your contraband sym pathies and piratical rams to your brother barbarians, the Confederates ! How chang ed your tone ! And from the heathen in New York, the bulls and bears of i Wall street, we hear doxeologiea; and through out the North every manner of beast and creeping thing that licked the southron's haca, and basked in the sunshine ol kid A-v nappers, now join m the chorus: "The Lord hath done great things for them!" The people's , rerponae, as the voice of many waters, is : "I te .Lord nam done great things for oi 1 treat things indeed tor tne toyai, - great things tor tne down- treoaan, -wnareot we are glad." We are glad, the people of God are glad, the patriotic are glad, me war-worn vet erans are glad, the sabjectf of the impend ing draft are glad, every household ia the Nartft is glad,: every loyal laraily m the South is glad, even the many homes that have been saddened by the sacrifices of precious trves uurmgiue war are now glad dened by the triumphant issues in which they are amply repaid for their terrible losses. -TheTe is great joy in the city, and gladness in me country. . i rom ort Sum ter to the Lakes spreads a nation's joy. And it is mainly devout joy, a godly gladness that now prevails. The general sentiment is "The Lord hath done great things for us, whereof we are glad." The pervading conviction may, I think, be ex pressed in the words ot jjavid : c ', If it had not been the Lord who was cn our side, when men rose up against ns then they had swallowed us up q uick, when their wrath was kindled against us: Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul : Then the proud waters naa gone over our soul, isiessed be the Lord, who hath not given us as prey to their teeth. Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowler : the snare is bioken, and we are escaped. Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth." It is in accordance with this conviction that the people of our commonwealth, who have so large a share in the service and the sacrifice of the war, have been called, by the Governor, to assemble to-day to render thanks nnto the Lord. It is in the spirit of this sentiment that the Government has chosen to mingle w:th the oivic ceremo nials; and military pomp and circumstance atvif ort bumier, religions devotion and dis course. It is certainly creditable to the national sobriety that in the very acme of popular jubilation over me death ot the rebellion, i he spontaneous harmonious refrain should be in the JJoxology " Pralaa God, front whom all blessings flaw. We are safe in success so long as gladness vents itself in gratitude. Bacchanalian revelry would ill-become a people wh m the Lord, with an ontsti e cbed t r n, has led through the Red Sea of civil war to the Highlands of Deliverance, to the beginning ot a grand national career.

LIGHT HILL'S first visit to Ohio was induced by numerous applica tions for treatment from parties unable to visit .new iorK tor tnat purpose, and who can net is successfully treated except after a personal examination. His practice has been so successful that he has repeated his visits to Cleveland several times. Still he finds that it is almost as difficult for some parties desiring his services, to visit him at Cleveland, mat in compliance with the re quests of many citizens, he has consented, before returning to Europe, to visit several contra! points in Northern Ohio, making Cleveland his headquarters, so that all who desire can consult him. For the past twelve years Dr. Lich thill has paid exclusive attention to the treat ment of deafness and catarrh in its vari ous forms. : He has practiced in New York, and other principal Eastern cities, where, until a few months past, he was associated with his cousin, Dr. R.B.
