the mMtloc in brief speech, which was repieta
with net retiree and Uetdeete connected with, the
miritMYfciwliUUrtWMt.
He began by statin that after wandering tareaife
swamps of -Louisiana ana Arkansas, he went to
Kentucky, Md be nT Ml before the fort of aa
eld adage, or rather, scriptural declaration " Wbn
It not for ui U against us"-es u Kentucky, which
at that time pretended to aa armed neutrality in
th great conflict which U nw ailt atlng the conn
try. ErcnDowth said, men are there who dins;
to the same oplQlooi fti those dlsseralnatlns;
throach the South. To coo Ann thli he related an
anecdote of b master who wished, ta obtain from
military lint ft little negro Have.
The speaker then described Ma Tlilti to Leilng
ton, to likiburf , nod to Natchti At Vleksburg
he first sew General Grant, and after portraying
the manner In which bt wai reclrd by tha Gen
f ral he Ravo Instances ol hit neat popularity
among lb armies or the West. The General
always had an eye to the paramount Interests of
hiseoldlere. Ae an example of thin when Mcke
burg waa taken and the Mississippi declared to be
open, tome boatmen who ferried Midlers up the
rtrer charged enormous ratee by their regule
tloni Gen Grant knew bow It dratted the pock
eteof bit soldiers, end declared that, since these
boatmen made money by the opentog of the Mis
slislmi,wh1h was doe to the armies, prlratee
should pay but half t eent natle, andnaoBleer
bat three-murths'oPa tent." and erery peeion
charging more than this should forfeit his boat.
This hid its effect, for tt not only pretested ex
tortion by eiTiUansbut It enhanced the popularity
of General Grant, and wielded ft most potent In
fluence oyer the eoldlers, Inspiring thtm with eon
fidenoe aad sublimating them from melaatboly.
At regards Netebet, wbteh If situated lie miles
below Vleksbnnr, nod on the same stde of the
stream, the speaker stated that It contained, with,
perhaps, the exception of New Orleans, at moth
wealth, Intel If tjenoe, and refinement as any elty tn
the South. The aristocracy resembled the British
nobility, many of the eltltent bad amassed Im
mense iortuacf. All were wealthy. Their pala
tial homes, en? Ironed with shrubbery which would
bare challenged the admiration of a Shlnetoae,
were built tn elegant strles, and would bo the de
light and adornment of tnjretty.e There he ex
pected to find teeesslonlsm ram pant i but in eon
venation with one of the planters whom belong
knew, be ascertained that the Union element was
tredonilnsnt, and that Netehei and the surround
ig countlea Tiled against the secession more men t
and were In faTor of Union.
In conclusion, the speaker stated thatharteg
heardJ fooibera Unionists thus talk, and after
coming to the North, bearing men botfly advocate
with Impunity tNe reeognuion' of the South, tt
rained bit heart, but he expressed the assurance
hat with Gen. Grant In the field, and with Presi

From let. trti.S. Jtwilt, Pi of titer ef Slatt AcrrwJ
SckocU Alt, x. r.
This may certify that I have been, slnoe 1411,
suhieot to violent periodical attacks of catarrh,
marked by a highly-Inflamed condition of the
lining membranes of the cavities of the head, pro
ducing a moat distressing srecleaof headache for
days at a time, wholly Incapsoitatlog me for busi
ness, ana during the paroxysms confining me to
the bed. In some Instances the Inflammation has
extended to the teeth, occasioning toothache t to
the throat, producing hoarseness and partial loss
of voice and twice It has so affected the left eye as
to confine me for a month or more to a darkened
room.
These attacks have been accompanied by strong
febrll symptoms by stoppage of the head, and, In
the first stages, by watery dli charges from the
nose, subsequently becoming acrid and yellow,
and toward the closing of the attack becoming
bloody and purulent I have tried medicines of
almost every kind j external applications to the
head, such at camphor, ginger, hot bandagec, and
fermentations of hot vinegar) snuffs of some half
ft doien kinds, and other catarrhal preparations!
together with the internal remedies, such at al
teratives, eetnartics, and emetics. These have
produced no change In the occurrence or eharacter
of the disease, and tn moat cases, with little or no
temporary icllef, I had eome at length to believe
the disease to be practically beyond either cure or
material alleviation
Under these circumstances I was led some five
months ago to make a trial of Dr. LighthlU't
treatment. His method, at once, approved Itself
to my Judgment, as simple, philosophical, and
likely to be effective. Notwithstanding the dls
advantages under wnich it labored, in deaiiog with
a disesse of sueh long standing, aggravated by
nervous debility and dyspepsia, and constantly
Induced by the accidents of myprofesalonal labor
I found the treatment reaching the disease as It
had never been reached before, and producing such
a modification and alleviation of ite character as
I bad supposed Impossible. I chronicle the results
thus:
Although I have been situated several times ao
that 1 should formerly have believed a severe at
tack of my catarrh Inevitable, I have escaped thus
fan the symptoms of threatened attack have been
vcryllsht, and have yielded to the remedies em
ployed oy Doctor ugnmiu, without need of re
course to the old hot fermentations or emstlci and
tha discharges from the head have resumed the
original and natural condition. I count upon a
complete cure. That I have been able, however.
to obtain to material a relief Is to me a cause of
gratitude In that atone I am repaid for whatever
the experiment may have eoct me
I make thic statement unsolicited, aa a means of
acknowledging my obligation to Dr. lighlhlll'a
method of treating catarrh, and with a rlew to al 1
any one who may have Buffered from that disease
In forming a just opinion of Its merits and Its
probable utility la their own case.
