Tfccre cau be no doubt that we have erred by distributing our forces over too wide a Held. We have not appreciated sufficiently the value of concentration. In our eager desire to sur round the rebellion and make a clean sweep at every point, we have several times subjected ourselves to attacks, which we could not re sist. We have been too unwilling to sacrifice the temporary possession of any position, how ever unimportant,for sake of gaining permanent possession of pflsts, which were essential. Ac cording to the confession of Jeff. Davis the rebels made the same mistake iu the early part of the war. They attempted to hold more than they could. They then relinquished a large region in the west and a large portion ol the eea coast in order to concentrate their loroes, and iu so doing they acted wisely. impressed with the importance of concen tration, some of the best military critics have questioned whether the labor expended in our vast expeditious, which gave us the Sounds of South Caroliua, Georgia, and Florida, and the mouth of the Mississippi* was as well bestowed as it would liave been in employing the troops, that were sent south, in the campaigns in Vi g'.uift and the west. There is force in the ar gument that the capture of the coast does not crush rebellion, that the destruction of the great rebel armies alone can accomplish- that result. We ourselves have expressed fears more than once that we were dividiug our forces too much. But recent intelligence from Engiand furnishes a fresh indication of the wis dom of those, who recommended the expedi tions, and is showing that perhaps thev gov ernment could not have done better than to occupy important points on the southern toast, even though several thousands were re quired for the work. There seems good rea son to believe that Englishmen or rebels are really preparing to break the blockade by force iu order to get the bribe of a million bales of cotton, which the confederate govern ment holds out to them. Of course they cau do nothing, when we have footing on the shore. Had we sent out no expeditions we should have been compelled to guard Lite whole liue of coast. But now CiiarlcsUm Sa vannah, and Mobile are the only harbors, in which suck an enterprize would lie undertaken. We can easily keep a strong naval force at each of these poets. But the surest way to upset all the calcula tions of these blockade breakers and to pre vent any serious annoyance from them, is to capture tiie few posts now held by the rebels. Let us get possession of them, and the honor able members ol parliament and the Liverpool merchants will no longer find it worth their while to fit out vesels for running the block ade. We fully expect that we shall have them all before the first of February. A large part of our navy will then be free to scour the seas and send every rebel cruiser to the bottom. But more than that. The capture of the seaports opens the way to us iota the very heart of the enemy’s country. Our gunboats can sail far into the interior, where, as the Richmond Examiner admits, the President’s proclamation will have a most powerful effect. Into those regions, so densely populated with negroes, and now so sparsely occupied by whites, ourjfurces will penetrate, and the whole system of labor, on which the rebel ar my and the southern people depend for their supplies, will be disturbed. The rebels are trembling iu expectation of this result. They have little confidence in their coast defences siuce New Orleans, which was tironouuced ini pregnable, fell.—Providence Journal. Tbe Homan and the Surgeon. An Interesting case has come to ourjtnowl edge within a short time, where a New England woman, alone and friendless, achiev ed a great reform in one of our hospitals. The surgeon having charge of this particular hos pital was a brute, treating the men hi his charge, visitors and indeed the surgeons l»e lieath him, with contemptuous cruelty. Hav ing political influence, it W'as not an easy mat ter to remove him, though there were a hundred acts ot Ids, any one of which would or should be considered sufficient cause for his instant dismissal from the service. But every one beneath him was afraid to take the first step, for fear the brutal man would turn upon the person beginning the complaint, and with his superior position and influence crush the complainant. One day a New England woman came to the hospital to see her sick son. She soon met the chief surgeon, and was treated with coarse violence. If lie could have his way, lie said, he would not permit a woman to come near the hospital, It was in vaiu that she urged that she hail not seen her boy for long months, and that he was now very ill. and perhaps dy ing. The monster continued to revile her, but dared not refuse her admittance to see her son. She soon found the surgeon in immediate attendance upon her boy, and told him of the treatment she had received faom tbe chief sur geon. He replied that he was not at all sur prised; he treated every body brutally. “Why. then, do you submit to such cruel outrage?” was the spirited woman’s question. “I suppose we are all of us afraid to make the complaint against him,” was the reply. The woman found that her son was incura bly 111, and was the proper subject of a dis charge. The assistant surgeon so informed her. She then sought the chief surgeon, and asked him to make a report to the Surgeon General upon the condition of her son. He refused with a dreadful oath. The New Eng land grit in the woman's heart took tire. “You stand there,” said she “and jeer at my borrow. You use language toward me that a wild beast would be &«tinmed of. But let me tell you, that poor and friendless as I am, am more powerful than you,and I will not lease Washington until hare exposed your brutality/” She was as good as her word. She went at once to Secretary Stanton. He referred her at once to the Surgeon-General, with a request that he would look carefully into the case, and if the facts would warrant tier assertions, that he would mete out rigid justice to the hospital surgeon. The lirst act of the Surgeon-General was to order the surgeon in charge to make a report upon the case of the woman’s son. The report was returned the very next day, and its language was insolent in the extreme. The surgeon was angry at the woman’s inter ference. “This is enough,” said the Surgeon-General. “A man who will send me such a report is j capable of all you charge against him. I will not take the trouble to examine the ease. He j sball be difmitffil the serrtce.” That very night, as the chief snrgeon of hospital sat with his usual assistants around him, indulging in his usual bluster, a pleasant faced tjrentlcman appeared at the door and iuipiircd for Surgeon-, in charge of I the hospital. That person was pointed out to him. ‘*1 am directed to hand this to you from the Surgeon-General,” said the stranger. The surgeon opened it, and found that it or dered him to hand over the hospital and sup plies to the bearer, and, to conclude, dismissed t the brutal surgeon irom the service. The New England woman had triumphed at last. Behind the Scenes at the Stock ex- change.—All interesting series of original ar- tides are being contributed to tile Boston Com- j mercial Bulletin by a broker who has “opera- I ted” for more than thirty years in Philadelphia, New York and Boston. We copy the follow- I iug from ills reminiscences of the old United Slates Bank: The glory of the great Regulator had all de parted—no crowds of men nor millions of mon ey responded in the marble palace, which Intel been erected at a cost ol half a million of dol lars—only an occasional footstep rang with startlngly loud reverberations in the high vaul ted banking rooms, aud all the otlices around it were siientand deserted as the grave—Thorn ,son, the transfer clerk, kept up a shadow of tlic ojd high estate in a distant part of the building; hut in the immediate business hull. Mi Patterson alone with the old grey-headed porter, kept watch and ward,each day playing the three that the bank still lived, on the iden tical spot w here he had paid out billions aud trillions of money. K* hie day a stranger enters, evidently from the West—far West. For a moment lie is struck by the tomb-like aspect, and deathly silence of the place, but, niafAVilfimr nnnws ..a a I. .1; O V..V, UIOIUIU LUUIlllCI, ad vaiici*#. The awakened echoes of his ow n steps give the only sign of life. Rustling a large pile of notes he demanded: j “Give me the money for these.” “Money? I’ll register them lor yon.” “Register be banged. Pay them! Xow.” “We can't.” “Can’t,eh? Where's the President?” “There is no President.” “Who are you “Pm the teller.” “Well, tell me where the Cashier is then.” “There is no Cashier.” “What?” and hesitating a moment, he burst out into a loud, sharp cry of "There'* no Cashier?" From the vaulted ceiling echoed back in dis- i tinct words, "There'* no cash here." The stranger started, looked up to whence 1 the reply came, stared at the teller, and gath ering up his bills departed without another word. Mr. Patterson also started at the Del phic oracle, and his mind having for some time been uneasy under his false position, and i the sad memories it brought, determined to retire from the “banking bull whose fame was dead, and post notes fled, and all but him de parted.” So little an incident decided him, and lie left the scene of his former useful and brilliant career forever. The remains of the bank were removed to some back rooms in Xo. 78, Walnut street, and the building sold, after a time, to the Federal Government, who now occupy it as a Custom House. Lpou the body of the dead monster 1 there sat for many years after an inquest of ghouls, rich men of high standing and charac ter, who did not hesitate to draw $3 500 a year for each other out of the little left to so many thousand widows, orpans, and broken down merchants; and continued to feast upon the crushed orange till eveiy drop of juice was sucked dry, wlten llioy too resigned; and and the once glorious*Rank of the United States became like the baseless fabric of a dream. Xeouoks can asi) win. Fight.—Lt. Col. Beard of 48th X. York Volunteers lately led an expedition down the coasts of Georgia and Florida, consisting entirely of colored troops, from the 1st Rcgl. {South Carolina Volunteers. Wliat a paradox; South Carolina raising vol unteers to put down rebellion! The Rev. Mr. French who accompanied them, closes iiis nar tive thus: “Our steamer left Beaufort without a sol dier, and returned, after a:i absence of twelve days, with 158 lighting colored men, some of whom dropped the hoe, took a musket, and were at once soldiers, ready to fight for the freedom of ot hers. The troop* made 13 land ings on the main between Feniamliiia and Fort Pulaski, destroying uitiu large salt works, together with some $20jOOO worth of salt, corn, rice, horses, 4c., which could not be brought away. About 70 slaves were takeu from their re Ik-I masters, while our steamers brought back Uie scars of 150 of the enemy's balls.— Tlie men entered Beaufort singing the John Brown song more heartily, I \ciiture .to say, titan it was ever sung before. The negroes now think they will be- ready, when the brig ade is completed, to take the job of putting down the rebellion.” MISCELLANEOUS.

POOR RICHARD'S EYE EAR WATER T^TO Organs of the human system are more irapor taut to health and comfort than the £u and Ear, and yet none arc loss understood or more neg lected. They seem to pass even common observation and yet every part of the body is dependent upon them for life and health. Poor Richard^ Eye and Ear Water Is a new and rare discovery, which is most wonder ful in its operations, putting to bluHh the old systems of treatment, which have quite as often done harm as good. Below we give the certificate of Rev. 1\ S. Henson, Pastor of the Broad Street Baptist Church, Philadelphia. If any one has doubts as to the value of this remedy, they may learn more of its practical value by addressing a note of inquiry to Mr. II. Philadelphia, Oct. 17,1862. From injuries received in my right eye, when a boy", a chronic inflammation had been produced, in consequence of which I suffered constant martyr dom. Every moment of my waking life w as embit tered, aud I was frequently unable to sleap at night. A variety of remedies had been resorted to with out success, and I entertained the purpose, as a last resort, of having the ball taken out of its socket, in the hope of thus finding relief. In the meantime, most providentially, I noticed one day in a shop window a bottle of POOR RICH ARD’S EYE WATER. I had never heard ol it lie fore, but determined to try it, and did, with the most delightful results. In a very few days the painful irritatiou was removed; I could bear the strongest light, and went forth to the enjoyment of a new life. I now keep a bottle of it always in the house, and if my eye seems at all disposed to annoy me, I give it a dose, and that is an end of it. I would not be with out it for any amount of money. I take occasion to say, ftirther, that nay wife used to suffer severely at times from protracted pain in and over her eyes End she has found Poor Richard’* Eye Water a sov ereign specific in her case, giving her almost instant relief. Grateful to God for the benefit that I have personally received, I cannot but commend the prep aration to all who have been sufferers like myself. P. 8.

THE DAILY PRESS. PORTLAND, MAINE. Thursday Morning, November 27,1862.

The Portland Daily Press has the largest regular circulation of any daily paper in the eity. Thanksgiving Festival. To-day is the annual New England Festival, formerly observed only in New England, but now celebrated almost as widely as the sons of New England have become scattered. To one who reflects upon the austerity of our Pilgrim and Puritan lathers, and the decidedly blue tinge which characterized their modes of tho't and feeling, particularly on all subjects per taining to man’s religious duties, It may seem strange that they should have instituted a cus tom of so festive a character as our Thanks giving—a custom that, in its observance, like a calm river, should increase in width, depth and volume, as it rolls down the gentle de scent of time. There is a tradition in relation to the origin of this festival, which may or may not la- true; but, in the absence of any other account, an swers very well to explain the origin of this custom. It is on this wise: As would naturally be expected, the pious founders of the New England settlements, in many cases driven from the fatherland to en joy that freedom, religious and civil, which could not lie found on the other side of the Atlantic, surrounded as they were by depriva tions, dangers, and absolute sufferings, with a hard, grudging soil, a cold climate, short sea sons. boundless forests, and a treacherous foe, often brought face-to-face with famine and starvation, were more prone to fasting than to thanksgiving; to thinking of their wants and necessities, ami i« caning upon cruu lo give them their daily bread, than to thinking with grateful hearts of received bounties, and to thanking God for his abundant mercies. Fasts came naturally, aud were frequent. In spring time, when the seed was to be committed to the ground in trust, and in autumn, when cold winter's shroud was about being drawn over everything green, beautiful and promising, the Fast was appointed, prayers were offered, and God was importuned to continue the favors upon which the piety of the colonists trusting ly relied. As the tradition goes, on one occasion, when the Council had met to decide upon the ap pointment of the annual autumnal Fast, one of the members, who possessed a big heart, and was blessed with a spirit more than ordi narily genial for those days and that people, arose in his place, aud, pointing with tearful eye and swelling heart to the bountiful harv ests just gathered in, the crowded store-houses, and the tokens of Divine favor which present ed themselves on every hand, in view of such a bountiful Providence asked if mourning and fasting, which is the. outward sign of mourning, were the appropriate returns to Almighty God for such a prodigal bestowal of his favors; if it would not be more becoming, in view of such mercies, to pour out the heart in gratitude to God, and praise him for bis goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men. He proposed, instead of an annual Fast, that a day of public Thanksgiv ing and Praise should be set apart. Tbe prop osition was favorably received and adopted; and such, says one of the traditions at least, was the origin of our annual New England Home Festival. Whether correct or not, the •tory it a pretty one. It is to be remembered, whether this story be true or otherwise, that the fathers who orig inally instituted Thanksgiving did it as a reli gion* offering, and that the feetite features which now cling about the day and its observ ance, have been the very natural accumula tions of later times. The fathers, when my came to these wild and forbidding shores, had seen so much frivolity and vanity, so much li cense, and unbridled dissipation, in the name of religious festivity—mere abuses of wise in stitutions—that they naturally went to the op posite extreme, and ignored everything fest ive in connection with religion, and cultivated a degree of austerity now almost wholly un known. It is to this, perhaps, that we are to trace their marked disrespect of all observance of Christmas. They had seen the Christmas holidays abused in England, and made days of revelry and dissipation; aud without stopping to separate the true from the false, they ig nored the whole; and so great was their de sire to blot out all remembrance of the day, and all its associations, and to extiugush all that would revive such remembrance, we are told that they even made statutes against Christmas pies, aud punished with flues those who provided or indulged in them. But human nature demands festivity, and man will laugli as well as cry, rejoice as well as mourn, dance as well as refrain from dan cing and the royal poet has told us that there is a time and a season for all these things; and wise Is that man who does not mistake In his times and seasons, and appropriate to festivity what belongs to more sedate matters, or stint hi* social nature by denying it ail gratification, under a mistaken apprehension that innocent pleasures are sinful. Probably we shall ofTend no one by saying— what we think is true—that, to a very large extent, the religious character of our Annual Thanksgiving Las declined, and it has coine to be regarded as a social home festival,, w hen the scattered members of families come to gether and, in the old home-circle, burnish anew the goldeu links of love aud friendship which do so much to bind communities togeth er in peace, harmony, and affection. It is em phatically a family gala-day, when union flags are expected to be hung out upon every house top and from every door-way, inviting to re union those who, down to the childrens'grand Children, have swarmed from the old pareut hive. As such a day, we welcome our Annual festival of Thanksgiving and Praise. But, alas, the present is a peculiar year, and to many a household Thanksgiving will not be unattended with deep, heart-sickening sor row. As the family group gathers around the festive board, and as the patriarch of the house hold lifts his voice in thankfulness and praise to the Giver of every good and perfect gift, In how manv homes will there be a vacant chair, the former occupant of which now slum bers In the sleep that knows no earthly wak ing 1 How the bitter anguish occasioned by separation, will mix with the authem of praise! How the tear drop will dim the eye, and hus kiness will choke the utteance of many a fond parent, many a loving wife, many an affection ate child, as they think of the loved and lost Who have l>een offered in sacrifice upon our country’s altar, to rescue the ark of our politi- cal covenant from the unaunoiuted touch of j the vandal and the spoiler! But, then, the thanksgiving will not be alto gether suppressed. It will be a comforting re flection that the lost have died in a noble cause, and that their blood has been used to conse crate anew blessings ami privileges to establish which our futhers deemed no sacrifices too great, no sufferings too painful to be borne, no patting* too profoundly grievous to be sub mitted to. But we will not dwell upon the shadows of the hour; rather would we lift the cloud and reveal its silver lining, and encourage the m hearts of all our readers to look upon the Aft nual Home Festival of 1802,—dark as are some of the reflections cast upon it, and painful as must be some of the thoughts that will force themselves upon our attention,—as one of the green spots in life’s journey, to Which, in all future time, memory may revert with pleasure, and find in it many a beautiful picture of home-love ami pure affection with which to adorn its secret chambers. And on this occa sion, sacred to home joys, let not the poor, the Comfortless, the bereaved, the stricken—not even the sinner—he forgotten. “It Is more blessed to give than to receive.* “He that giv eth to the poor lendeth to the Lord.” Let all to whom Providence has been abundant, so act today, and so distribute of their abundance as to realize the truth of these scriptural assu rances. For the Daily Frew. The Agricultural College. A LETTER TO GOV. COBURN ANI) THE LEGIS LATURE ELECT. Gentlemen:—It is matter of congratulation that amid the pressing war duties devolved up on Congress at its last session, time was lound to mature and enact so many measures of pub lic utility in the interests of peace. Among these is the act to provide for agricultural and scientific education in the several States of the Union. By this act, a grant of public lands, equal to thirty thousand acres for each mcm ber of Congress under the new apportionment, is made to each State which shall accept it with the annexed conditions, within two years from tin* date of the President’s signature, Ju lv 2. 1802. To secure the benefits of this an propriatiou, action must be taken by the Leg islature. As the time lor the commencement of the session approaches, it is well that the subject be brought to the attention of the peo ple and their representatives. VALUE OF THE APPROPRIATION. Under the apportionment we have seven members,—tlvt Representatives and two Sen ators,—which give as our portion of this mag nificent grant, two hundred and ten thousand acres. The nominal value of these lands is $1.25 per acre, or $202,500 in the aggregate.— Supposing the whole to be worth but one dul ler per acre, we have the sum of $210,000, ten per cent, of which may be expended for build ing sites and experimental farms. The re mainder is to be funded in the securest mau ner; the interest only to be used for the sup port of the college or colleges, which may be put in operation. Allowing tor any contingencies which may arise, if we estimate the entire fund at $200, 000, and deduct teu per cent, for sites and farms, we have $180,000 to be invested. Sup pose this to yield an interest of live per cent., the minimum contemplated by the act, we shall have an annual income of $9,000 with which to couduct the operations of the college. THE GRAND PURPOSE. The leading pnrpose for which tills appro priation is made, is declared to be “to teach such branches of learning as related to agri culture and the mechanic arts,”—“ without ex cluding other scientific and classical studies, and including military tactics.” The clause providing that the course of instruction shall not be limited to agricultural and mechanic studies, is a very wise one. Thus restricted, it would have failed to confer upou the com munity the full benefits of which It is capable. On the basis now provided,—In the pecuniary fund, and in the liberal course of study which may be adopted,—we may build up an institu tion of which the State may be proud, and in the benefits of which her poorest sons may re joice. THE NORMAL ELEMENT. The branches to be taught in the agricultur al college will include those required in our best normal schools; and the class of young men most likely to resort to the one are pre cisely those who need the advantages of the other. Our intelligent and well educated far mers, at least during the years of their youn ger manhood, make some of the most reliable and efficient teachers of our winter schools.— And even to those who would not be interest ed In matters of practical teaching, the study of didactics,—the science and art of teach ing,—would be of incalculable value. It is quite as true of men in other walks of life,— in farming and the trades,—that they know more than they can tell.” I am not now speaking of that other class who cau tell a great deal more than they kuow'! The power to make clear and intelligible statements,—to present any subject iu such a way that a child can understand it, is an attainment as valuable as it is rare. There is good reason, then, in this general consideration, and better reason in our pressing need of a Suite Normal School, that the course of instruction iu the proposed agricultural college shall include a department of didactics. Instruction Jji military tactics,—required by tile act,—will not be amiss; especially if there shall be included in the study the science of turning swords into plowshares and spears in to pruning hooks; a science peculiarly ap propriate to an agricultural course. the cosiwro the state. It was probably a well-considered feature of the act that no part of the appropriation can be used for the erection of buildings lor the Drooosed collem* Tn tlw. ...tI. of the institutions of learning, there have been too many examples of improvident expenditure for mere externals, leaving but little meaus for the weightier matters appertaining thereto. To guard against danger from this source, the act provides wisely, if not convenient ly, that the State shall incur the expense of erectiug or otherwrse securing the neces sary buildings. This will probably be urged as an objection to acceptiug'the grant. A wise policy, however, will not long weigh the ex penditure of a few thousand dollars for this purpose against the magnificent donation thus placed within our reach. If the State should hesitate, in these times of pressure, to make the necessary apprapriotion for the erection of new buildings, there ure other methods still open to us. Of the literary institutions now in operation, there are several which would be very ready to offer the use of their buildings for this purpose. It is earnestly hoped that the Legislature will deliberate wisely, and decide firmly to pursue such a course as will secure the high est advantages of the contemplated measure, without regard to local feeling or sectional or institutional interests. The war is not for always. Peace with her nobler pursuits will return to us. We shall need the best possible agencies to develop our resources and to train our people to the largest intelligence and truest patriotism; and we should hail with pleasure the prospect and the promise of new facilities by which the masses of our population may acquire the scientific and practical education so essential to our highest progress as a great people. Not doubting that the incoming State Gov ernment, like 'that which is about to retire, will cherish the educational interests of the State, and add to their efficiency as much as in them lies, I am, gentlemen, yours very respectfully, Edw. I’. Weston. Superintendent of Schools. Sick and Wounded Soldiers in the Hospit als iu Washington, Alexandria, George town and Fairfax. [CONTINUED.] CONVALESCENT HOSPITAL, ALEXANDRIA.

Mr. Battles in behalf of the citizens of Bangor. The discussion ot the question, “Who is responsible for the success or failure of our schools?” was participated in by Messrs. Moore of Waterville, Kelsey of Far mington and Battles of Bangor, and was laid over for further consideration. The opening lecture was then delivered by Mr Weston, on the relations of war to our ed ucational affairs. It was eminently practical and eloquent, and would that every citizen in terested in education could have heard it. __ R. day or two siuce we had a pleasant call from S. R. Xiles, Esq., the popular and efficient Newspaper Advertising Agent, who has his office in Scollay’s Building, corner of Court street and Cornhill, Boston. Mr. Niles succeeded V. B. Palmer, the father, if we mis take not, of this line of business. He was for merly an apprentice to the printing business in this city, and he has done nothing to reflect discredit upon the establishment from which he graduated. Mr. Niles is one of the men who has seen the benefits of advertising; that to the merchant or the man of business, the expenditure of a tew hundred dollars,more or less, in judicious advertising, is like the ex penditure of money by the intelligent farmer for fertilizers for his lands, each dollar expend ed coming back increased ten-fold, in the shape of profits. This lesson lu‘ would im- j press upon the minds of business men. Prin ters’ ink is the best fertilizer for a business soil, ever yet discovered—and Mr. Niles knows where it is safe and profitable to use it.

Where shall we go Thanksgiving eve ning to obtain two hours of reflned amuse ment and instruction? Visit Deering Hall and see Wesley's War Tableaux. At the municipal election in Ports mouth, oil Tuesday last, Jonathan Dearborn, Esq., the Republican candidate, was elected Mayor by a majority or 222. “R.

SyCol. Shurtlelf of Winslow, says the Mail, killed a hog a few days since weighing 800 lbs. Mr. Franklin Dunbar, of tlie same neighborhood, recently killed two hogs, weigh ing 017 and 042. jyThe Charleston Mercury predicts the death ol the L luted Slates tigpcrnment in two years. If the event happens in one year, Pren tice declares the rebel Confederacy will not live to see it. Are you fond of good paintings vivid ly portraying exciting scenes? Go to Deer ing Hall and gaze upon the matchless beau ties of Wesley's War Tableaux. jy Atnoiig the recent deaths of soldiers at Washington Hospitals, were the following:— Hewer S. Bean, Co. B, 3d Maine; Chas. Co burn, Co. 1), 5th Maine; and George L. Metz, Co. K, ISth Maine. yXhe Bangor Whig exclaims, “What u wicked place the ‘natural seaport’ is getting to be,” and yet, in its very next paragraph, ac knowledges that quarters in that city are so bad that even the rogues will not stay there! Cavalry.—We understand it is in con templation to raise one company of Cuvalry in this state to constitute part of a Xew England regiment, to go with Gen. Bank's expedition. Orders will be'issued in a few days. It is said that experiments with com mon corn husks show that they can be worked up into an admirable article of paper. It would be queer If King Cotton should be de throned by an Indian chief in the important office af diffusing intelligence over the earth.

That journal says that it is constantly receiving letters from the Interior of the Stale. The same paper declares that Gov. Gamble, of that State, has become an emancipationist. £JT“A case of unusual importance-and in terest was coinmeuced in the United States Circuit Court In Boston Tuesday, by Isaac Ilaydeu against the Suffolk Manufacturing Company, for alleged infringement of a patent machine for cleaning cotton.

The Galway Costbact.—The following appears in the Galicay American:—“Mr.Ham mofld, the American Consul at Dublin, has written to his colleague here, Mr. West, and states that the steamers will commence run ning between Galway and Portland, Maine, in February. This fact should raise the drooping courage of our struggling people.” Captured.—On Thursday evening the Po tomac flotilla brought to Washington prisoners captured while attempting to run the blockade. Among them are several prominent Maryland ders, w ho had in their possession over $20,000 in gold and currency, together with about the same amount in boots, shoes, and other goods purchased for the rebels. It is inferred that two of their number are officers, pretty well informed with respect to our military affairs. yTlie Wasldngton correspondent of the New York Evening Post informs us, that mil itary gentlemen express the opinion that Gen eral McDowell will be triumphantly successful before the Court which inquires into his case. His removal was merely to gratify the popular feeling, and not because the President or Gen' Halleck believed him guilty of any misconduct. y The illustrator of the line panoramic paintings, at Deering Hall, had better correct up his historical lore. In exhibiting the ne gro regiment at Beaufort, he remarked, this is the first and last experiment with negro troops.” Unfortunately for this bit of history, the papers are even now publishing the recent gallantry of some negro battalious west of the Mississippi, in successfully charging rebel bat teries. Mr. Baxter, M. P., on America.—Mr. Baxftw, M. P.. in an address at Dundee, on tile 0th, contended that slavery was the cause of the Ameeican war. He concluded by say ing; “What I want to bring out is, that there can be no safety, much less good government and progress in any country based upon such a programme as that adopted by the Southern Confederacy; nor do I believe any peace or settlement worth six months’ purchase as long as the fountain head and origin of the evil is not removed. Any arrangement short of eventual emancipation may delude the cotton brokers of Liverpool and the Conservative country gentieinen; but, inasmuch as it leaves the source of hostility more active and aggressive than ever, it will prove but a hol low, and, perhaps, an impolitic truce. For the Daily Trees. Justice to Sergeant Goss. Camp Grover, Cross Roads I Montgomery Co., Md., Nov. 21. 1862. Mkssrs. Editors:—Hearing with pain and mortification of the arrest of Joseph Goss, Sergeant in Co. G, 23d Me. regiment, and his removal from his home in Danville, 1 take this opportunity to inform the public, through the columns of your paper,of (he true nature of the affair. While our regiment was at Camp Abraham Lincoln, one of my meu deserted and I dis patched Sergeant Goss in search of the deser ter. While on his errand, our regiment left the State, and, in the meantime, Sergeant Goss was taken sick witli typhoid fever and thus, while our regiment was on its way to the seat of war, he was doomed to the sail disappoint ment of remaining. And a few days since, being at home with his family, with iny per mission, recovering from his protracted illness, lie was arrested by an officer of the law, and forced from thence. Through justice to Sergeant Goss, who pos sesses as manly and patriotic a heart as ever heat, and who is noted for the integrity and purity of his manhood, I submit the preced ing statements. Capt. A. I*. Lamii, Co. G, 23d Me, regiment. Itf'Wn are informed that Col. Hathaway, the excellent and indefatigable Agent lor this State, has forwarded, and will continue to for ward lor publication in the State paper—the Kennebec Journal —complete and accurate lists of Maine soldiers in the various hospitals in and near Washington, and connected with tin: army of the Potomac. Other papers can of cotfrse copy front the Journal, says our informant, as it would be impracticable fur Col. 11. to prepare lists for more than one pa per. If hut one paper is to receivo the lists, and others are to copy from it, why not send to some one of the Daily papers, so that oth ers may not have to wait so long for an oppor tunity to copy, as otherwise they may be re quired to?

The distribution of Indian presents, fur nished by the government for that portion of tlie Utah tribe of Indians belonging to the su perintendency of New Mexico, took place at the agency at Abequin on the fid inst.

Ail was quiet along the route. Large Rebel Army at Fredericksburg. New York, Nov. 2d. A special dispatch to the Times, from Fal mouth, Va., 25th, says the rebels are preparing to dispute tlie passage of our troops. The garrison has neen reinforced bv the divisions under Longstreet and D.H..IIU1, va riously estimated at from 25,000 to 75,000 men, and formidable batteries have been planted for their protection. Without some brilliant stroke of strategy on our part a severe engagement will be necessary before dislodging tlie enemy. A great deal of curiosity, if not amaze ment, has been excited by a feat in the pho tographic art, which lias been styled “Spir itual Photography.” The New York World says the mystery ha* been solved. We quote from that ]iaper: “A photographer of Boston, the City of No tions, made a picture of himself, and on devel oping the plate he discovered a shadowy out line of his wife. Many oilier pictures have been produced, some representing husbands, others daughters, who have in each ease been dead some years. It is said, also, that tlie op erator cannot take but five pictures a day w itliout becoming exhausted in the effort. A. A. Turner, photographer for tlie house of I). Appleton i Go., bus shown us several pictures presenting the same effects, which are pro duced without any spiritual agency whatever. Mr. Turner did not become exhausted by the eflbrt.” We know nothing of this matter, though we have seen some of the pictures. We have seen no difficulty, in our own tnind, in their pro duction, without recourse to mystery, though our supposition would involve deception prac 'iced upon tlie honest believer in mystery. A gentleman of this city has just exhibited to us a|stercoscopic picture of "Sir Roland's Ghost” —taken photographically more than a year since, more wonderful in appearance than any spirit picture we have seen, and yet nothing unnatural is claimed for it. tW A young lady, on being asked what ealling she wished her sweetheart to follow, blushingly replied that she wished him to he a husbandman.

Letter of the French Minister on Interference iu American AiTairs. Halifax, Nov. 30. The following is the dispatch of the French Minister of Foreign Affairs, addressed to the I Ambassadors of France at Loudon and St. Pe tersburg, and published in the Mouiteur: "Paris, October 30. Europe watches with painful interest the struggle which has been raging more than a year upon the American continent. The hos tilities have provoked sacrifice,and the efforts I of nature certainly inspire the highest idea of j perseverance and energy of two populations; but this spectacle, which docs so much honor to their courage, is only given at the price of j numlieriess calamities alitl a prodigious etfu j sion of blood. To these results of civil war, j which from the very first, assumed vast propor j lion, there is still to be added apprehensions of servile war, which would be the culminating 1 point of so many irreparable disasters.— The sufferings of a nation towards which we have always professed a sincere friendship i would have sulliced to excite the sincere solic itude of the Emperor, even had we ourselves notsnffered by a counter blow from theseevents under the influence of intimate relations,which extensive intercourse lias multiplied between various regions of tile globe. Europe itself has suffered from the conse quences of this crisis, w hich dried up one of the most fruitful sources of public wealth, and which lias caused most sad trials. As you arc aware, when this conflict com menced, we held it our duly to observe the most strict neutrality, in concert with other maritime power*, and the Washington cabinet repeatedly acknowledged the honorable man ner with which we adhered to that line of eon duct. And the sentiments idneated to us liauc undergone no change; hut the benevolent char acter of that neutrality, instead of imposing upon the powers the attitude which might re semble indifference, ought rather to make them of service to two parties by helping them out of the liosition w hich seems to hnve tin is sue. From the commencement of the war an arm ed force was set on foot by the belligerents, which since then lias almost constantly been kept up. After so much bloodshed, they are uovw, in that respect, nearly in the same posi tion. Nothing authorizes the presumption that more decisive military operations will shortly occur. According to the last news received in Eu rope the two armies, on the contrary, were in a couditiou that would not allow either party to hope, within a brief delay, for any decided advantage to throw the bahtace and acceler ate peace. All these circumstances taken together point to tbe opportunity of an armistice, to which, moreover, under present circumstances, no stratagetieal objection can be made. The favorable dispositions towards peace which are lieginning to manifest themselves in the North as well its the South, might on the other hand second steps that might lie made to rec ommend the idea of truce. The Emperor lias therefore thought that the occasion lias presented itself of ottering to the belligerents the support of good offices of three maritime powers, and his majesty lids charged me to make the proposition of the government to her lirillanic majesty as well as t«l the Court of Russia. The three cabinets would exert their iufl encc at Washington as well as with the Con federates, to obtain ail armistice lord months, during which every act of war, direct or indi rect, should provisionally cease on sea as well as on land, and it might be, if necessary, ulte riorily prolonged. These overtures, I need not say. would not imply on our part any judgment, on the origin or issue of the struggle, uor any pressure upon the negotiations which might, it is to lie hoped, ensue in favor of an armistice. Our task would consist solely in sinoothingdown obstacles, and in interfering only in a measure determined upon by the two parties. We should not, in fact, believe ourselves called upon to decide, but to prepare the solution of dilHcullies, which hitherto have opposed rec oncilliatkm between the belligerent parties. Would not, moreover, an agreement betweeu tbe three Courts respond sufficieTitly to their intentions; would it not give to their step the character of evident impartiality? Acting in concert they would combine tbe conditions la'st suited to ensure confidence in the government of the Emperor, by tbe con stant tradition of French policy towards the United States, England by the community of race, Russia by the marks of friendship she lias never ceased to show to the Washington cabinet. Should the event not justify the hope of the three powers, and should the ardor of tlie struggle overrule the wisdom of their couucils, ibis attempt would not lie the less honorable for them, and they would have ful filled a duty of humanity more especially in dicated in a war which excited passions render all direct attempts at uegotiotion more diffi cult. It is the mission which international law assigns to neutrals at the same time that it prescrilscs to them a striet impartiality, and they could never make a nobler use of their influence than by endeavoring to put an end to the struggle which causes »o much suffer ing, and compromises such great interests throughout the whole world. Finally, even without immediate results, these overtures would not be entirely useless, for they might encourage public opinion to views of conciliation, aud thus contribute to hasten the moment when the return of peace might become possible. 1 request you sir, in the name of Ills Majes ty, to submit these considerations to Lord Russell, or to Eiiuce Gortsehakotfi, begging him to state the views of government of Her Eritaunic Miyesty or fount of Russia. (Signed) Duouyn He i.'Hcys. Tiie following dispatch was addressed by Earl Russell to Earl Cowley, Her Majesty's Ambassador at l’aris: My Lord: The Count de Klalmult came to the Foreign Office by appointment on Mon- 1 day. 10th in-t., and read to me a dispatch from M. Dronyn dc I’ll ays, relating to the civil war j in North America. In this dispatch the Min ister lor Foreign Affairs states that Euro|>e j has followed with painful interest the struggle which had now in-en going on for more than a i year on the American continent. He does j I justice to the energy and perseverance which 1 have been displayed by liotli sides, but lie ob- serves that these proofs of their courage have i been given at the ex|iense of innumerable ca- lainities and immense bloodshed. To these ac- I cornpaniments oi civil conflict is to lie added the apprehension of servile war, which would i be the climax of so many irreparable misfor tunes. If these calamities affected America 1 only, these sufferings of a friendly nation would be enough to excite the anxiety amt I sympathy of the Emperor; but Europe lias j I suffered In one of the principal branches of her 1 industry, and her artisans have been subjected 1 j to most cruel trials. France and the maritime powers have, dur- j ing the struggle, maintained the strictest neu- j traUty, hut the sentiments by which they are I animated are far from imposing on them any- i thing like indifference, but seem, on the con trary, to require that they should assist the two belligerent parties in an endeavor to es- cape from a position which appears to have no issue. The forces of the two sides have j hitherto fought with balanced success, and the j latest accounts do not show any prospect of a 1 i speedy termination of the war. These cir- j cumstances taken togetoer would seem to favor the adoption of measures which might bring about a truce. The Emperor of the 1 French, therefore, is off the opinion that there is now an opportunity of oflering to the bel- I ligerents the good officers of the maritime I powers. He therefore proposes to Her Majes ty, as well us to the Emperor of Russia, that the three courts should endeavor, both at Washington and in communication with the Confederate States, to bring about a snspen j sion of arms for six months, during which every act of hostility, direct or indirect, j should cease at sea as well as on land. This armistice might, if necessary, be renewed for a further period. This proposal, M. Dronyn j de 1 Huys proceeds to say, would not imply j on the part of the three powers any judgment j on the origin of the war, or any pressure on r negotiations for peace, which it is hoped would take place during the armistice. The I i-hf'c powers would only interfere to smooth obstacles, and only within limits which the two interested parties would prescribe. The French Government is of the opinion that even in the event of failure of immediate g—— success, these overtures might be useful in turning the minds of men now leated by pas sion, to consider the advanttgesofcwiciliation and peace. Such is in substance tie proposal of tlie government of the Empetoro! France, and l need hardly say that it has attracted the serious attention of her majesty’) government. Her Majesty is desirous of act'wg in concur rence with Franco upon the gieat questions now agitating the world, and upm none more than on the contingencies conie.cted with the great struggle now goingon in Birth America. Neither her majesty the Queen n*r the British nation will ever forget tlie noble ind emphatic manner in which the Emperor o' the French vindicated tlie laws of nations aid assisted in tlie cause ol peace, in the instaiee of the seiz ure of tlie Confederate eommissliners on board the Trent. Her majesty’s govirnment recog nize with pleasure in the dmigii of arresting the progress of the war by ftfmdly measures the benevolent views and Inniane intentions of tlie Emperor. They are dsoof the opinion that if tlie steps proposed wire to be taken the concurrence of Russia M ould lie extremely de sirable. Her Majesty’s govermnenl have, however, not been informed up to the present time that tile Russian government laze agreed to co operate m ith England and H ance on tills oc casion, although tliatgovenraient may support the endeavors of England au l France to attain tlie end proposed. Rut is tfaieud proposed at tainable at the present inotn-nt by tlie course suggested by tlie govermneafof France Such is the question which lias been anxiously and carefully examined by Her.Majesty's govern ment. After weighing ail tlie infoi uiation which lias been received bom America, Her Majesty's government are led to tlie conclu sion that there is no ground at the present mo ment to hope that the federal government would accept tlie proposal suggested, ami a refusal from Washington at present would pre vent any speedy renewal of tlie offer, llcr Majesty’s government thinks, therefore, that it would be better to watch carefully the pro- gress of opinion in America, and if, as there appears reason to hope, it may tie found to have undergone or may undergo'hereafter any change, the three courts might then avail themselves of such change to offer their friend ly counsel with a greater prospect than now exists of its living accepted by the two con tending parties. Her Majesty's government will communicate to that of France any intel ligence they may receive from Washington or Richmond bearing upon this important sub ject. Your Excellency may read this dispatch to M. Drouyn du I'Huys, and give him a copy of Krssw.1.. FROM WASHINGTON. (foil. IlcDowell hefurr (ho 4'ourt of Inquiry. Raid on Poolsville by Marylanders. Washington-, Nov. 20. The Court of Inquiry, in the case of Gen. McDowell, reassembled to-day, wlieu he, hav ing been called upon, read a paper, submitting a plan of investigation, in the course of which lie says the details of ttie disaster of the first battle ot Butt Kuii having been investigated by a joint committee ot Congress, and be hav ing siuee been appointed by the President and continued by the Senatf as a Major General, lie lias not thought it necessary to ask the Court to take up that campaign, but ouly to investigate his conduct since lie was thus com missioned. The question which stands forth prominently in this case, and which may he assumed, is the charge to which all the other points cau be regarded as specifications, is that of treason, knowing of no s|ieeitic charge* None having been charged, lie lias the ditHcult part of proving a negative by direct proof. This is impossible, and the only way he knows of doing so Is by such evidence as shall cause his innocence to he interred. It was with this view he wrote to the President asking an investigation oil such points as would, if the result should prove favorable, leave no doubts to his prejudice. In addition to this question of his general conduct as an executive and administrative otlicer, he a-ks inquiry to he made on those points which he supt>oses may have had in the minds of others a direct hear ing on the main question as follows: 1st. An investigation of his correspondence with tlie enemy's commanders or w ith auy one w ithin the enemy’s lines. 2d. An investigation of his conduct and the policy pursued.by hiui towards the inhabitants of tiie country occupied by our troops, with reference to themselves or their property. This matter lie says has been severely commented upon throughout the country and in both Houses ot (Jougress,aud may possibly have tout much to do witli the charge of treason, as to his conduct tawards the inhabitants. With reference to themselves he wishes to offer his general orders Concerning rape, robbery and pillage, and those with reference to interfer ence with the railroad, telegraph, Ac. 8d. As to whether lie lias been faithful to those placed over him. 4lh. As to whether he has failed through any unworthy personal motives to go to the aid or to semi reinforcements to his brother commanders. 5th. He asks an investigation into the charge very generally made against him, and which sheets seriously bis character, viz., that 01 drunkenness. On all these points Gen. McDowell makes suggestions to certain witnesses, including Gen. Scott, Gen. McClellan, and others. The parlies making the raid on PoolesviHe, Mil., yesterday morning, consisted of about fifty Marylanders, principally belonging in Montgomery county, in which that village is located. They crossed the Potomac not long ago to avoid the draft, and took temporary service with the rebels, joining White’s guer rillas. They doubtless designed to capture valuable government military property recent ly Stored in that city, and of the removal of which they were ignorant. They watched the I’ord at which they crossed for an hour after our patrols passed up beyond it, and then dashed over and into their village. They spent five or six hours w ith their families and friends. Information from the front is uninteresting. The enemy were to-dav known to lie linverimr in roquier County, at Upperville, Salem and Warreuton. A small rebel force i> also ascer- Laiued to be at Aldic, in Louden County.

From the Army. Falmouth, Va., Nov. 2(1. It is expected that the railroad will be fin ished to-morrow from Aquia Creek to the Bappahamioek opposite Fredericksburg. Tim bridge over l’otoume Creek w as reported tills morning as nearly completed. The cars carry supplies as far as Brooks' station, six miles from Aquia Creek, which greatly accommo dates our troops. Notwithstanding the late bad condition of the reads, quartermaster's supplies have been promptly furnished. Long lines of road have been corduroyed under di rection of Col. Ingalls, Chief Quartermaster of the army, and are iu good condition. The ramp fires of tile enemy are constantly increasing within sight of Falmouth, affording indications of the augmentation of the rebel lorees. Lee has joined Longstreet, and D. H. Hill and Jackson are known to lie on the way thither. Yesterday the enemy were busily engaged in constructing additional works iu the rear anil to the left of Fredericksburg. The cars bring troops and supplies regularly to the rebel troops, stopping at a point three miles from town. Gen. Hovey’s Expedition returned to Helena Cairo. Nov. 2(1. (ien. Hovey’s expedition, consisting of 17 transports, carrying about 10,000 men, which left Helena some days since, returned on Fri day. It proceeded to the mouth of the White river, but owing to its lowness could go no further. Its destination is said to have been Little llock. The Appeal learns from several sources that the Federal* in West Tennessee and vicinity of Holly .‘■firings have forbidden farmers sow ing wheat, declaring they will not be allowed to raise it; the Federal purpose being to pro hibit the production of anything but cotton.

POETRY. [Written for the Press.] To the Brightest Star In Heaven. Ever since the departure of the 25th regiment, have I watched a bright star in the Heavens with peculiar Interest, and loved to think it was shedding its pure light on our pet regiment—Yes! nightly, as I leave my bed and gaze at this beautifhl star keeping vigils, like a sentinel, over their camp, I invoke blessings ou the brave Colonel and Chaplain, young in yearn, and on all our brave boys so far away. O, how 1 love that Mttle letter A,” aud the figures “25,” and should my remembrance become dim by the lapse of years, and everything else be obliterated, then will those silver letters be stereotyped upon my brain, and the brightest picture iu the chambers of my soul will be —Camp Abraham Liucoln. It is uight's still and holy hour, Aud all is sad and loue— No sound is heard to greet miue ear, Save oceau’s distant moan; The flocks aud herds are all at rest, Aud in !he waving trees The warbling bird has sought his nest— Lulled by the whispering breeze. 1 love to watch thy silvery light, For I know thy gentle beams Are tailing tar in radieuce bright O’er the lonely soldier’s dreams; Yet! all night long, bright vigils keep O’er loved oues far away. Look down and bless them while they sleep, And through the coming day. Bright beaming star, caust thou not bear My tbougbta to those brave youth? Tell them to be, as tliou art, pure A .1 ....Mr ik. 4..41. t And while they seek the wreaths of fame In young lite's haleyou day; Let their watch-wonl be the saviout's him And trut In Him alway. Tell theta when shades of evening fell, And round their board they come. Thia thought must cheer them, oue aud ail, They're oue day uearer home. O, blesa the sick and wounded oues, If any such there be, And may the slain iu battle know A blest Eternity. Protect them when the wintry blast Shall wail iu fitful strains, Aud when the enow flakes putter fast Upon our.window panes; Protect their leader, young in years, While on the battle Held, Who’ll urge them on without a fear, Nor to the traitors yield. And soon will come the blessed Spring, Wlieu the lark will mount the skies, And tuneful blrdB float on the wing, With plumes of varied dyes; 'Tis then we hope and trust and pray, Our brave boys may return, And briug with them on that Spring day, The laurels bravely won. Ob! beed the blessings 1 have said Thou bright aud glittering star. And I will pillow my anxious head, And dream of the distant war; Yes! give sweet rest to my weary eyes Until the dawning day, Then 1 shall wake aud think with aigbs Of the loved ones far away. And pray for thee, my gallant boys, Ob! promise me this night. You will'Secnre life’s brightest joys Aud win yon Heaven’s flair light. If of the ranks of Christ yon are, Put hit whole armor on; And no more rumors—no more war, When Christ aud Heaven are won, Sight, Oct. 26, 1862. Maby. Hie Mysteries of M Exchange.” We presume that most of our readers are aware that the currency quotations of foreign exchange represent a premium considerably In excess of the actual fact; but we doubt whether all of them know precisely what is the difference. By the usage of bankers, the old Spanish dollar is assumed for the par of exchauge, oue pound sterliug being equal to 4 4-9 of these dollars. It was at this rale that sums of mo ney mentioned in the constitution of Massa chusetts were formerly chauged into federal money; aud this rate no doubt originally rep resented the true par between the two coun tries. In point of fact, however, iu the established moneys of Great Britain aud America, oue pound sterling contains as much gold as 4 80 lUO dollars, of the United States, and this is the true par of exchange, or rate w hich must be used iu converting the money of oue coun try into that of the other. For instance, if auy thing costs £100 in Great Britain, its true value in ordinary times expressed iu the mouey of the United States would be $480. Accordingly, it is a fact familiar to all bank ers that when exchange is quoted at about 109 1-2, iu point of fact there is no real premi um, bpt the true par has been attained. Be cause If we multiply 4 44 (which Is the nomin al par) by 109 1-2 (which is then the quoted rate) we get 4 80 (which is the trae per. It is ouiy wheu we use iu the calculation the higher cafes to which we have suddenly been accustomed, that results are attaiued for which some pereoua are not prepared. For instance,when exchauge is quoted at 147 and gold at 102 (which have lately bey rrof. J. S.

It contains no injurious ingredients, and gives the hair a beauti ful rich brown or black color. Directions for using —which are very simple—accompany each bottle. One superiority of Todd’s Lux Solis Hair Dve over all others is, you do not have to cleanse the hair or wash it before or after using the dve, and there is but one kind lo be used, and that can he put on the same as oil and water, without any trouble, unliko all oth- 1 er dyes that have two or three different kinds to be applied every time used. This dye is peculiarly adapted for coloring ladies’ hair, because you do not have to wash out the dve after putting it on. Unlike all other dyes, it will color long hair, which other dye* cannot do.

A Remarkable Case of a boy who was cared by DK, H. J. BOYWTOM, Of Scrofulous Ophthalmia, as the following facts will show: “FOR along time the boy’s eye-lids had been entirely clcmed. His case was conoid ered almost hopeless. The boy was put uu der the care ot Dr. II., and after great pa tience and perseverance, with his electrical treatment aud with other cioutives, be was able to lift his eye lids, w hen it was I ecovered that a false membrane had formed and severed the entire eves. This was removed by Dr. tlrvuton, and the boy’s eye-sight is now entirely rest* red, and his eyes stronger than ev er before. This should be known to all persons who are similarly afflicted. Although I understand that the Doc tor has for many years, in bis operations on these delicate organs—the eye aud ear, met with em i inent success, he has not deemed it necessary to keep blaziug before the public his surgical skill in" this par ticular part of his profession, bnt has been silently performing cures, many of tfcsai of a remarkable j character.” CF* Certificates from numerous of his patients will testify to his successful operations, all of which may be seen at his office.
