By the kind invitation of Professor Wallenburg and Dr. Grant, the editor of this journal, in company with the editor of the Saturday Advertiser, visited their consulting rooms at the Criterion Hotel yesterday morning. The first case shown w.w* r.hat *>f a Miss White, aged 41 years, the .laughter of a settlor at Oamaru, who lias been totally blind for years. This young holy has been under the treatment of these clever oculists for throe days, and, wonderful to say, her cy.- ight has been perfectly restored. The farlv-r of the girl assured us that he h xl |.!a. •*'d her under the cave of several medical men, who had failed to do her any good, despite the money that he lavished upon her. The next was the case of a Miss Hughes, a Dunedin resident, who stated that she had been deaf for a period of over three years. Strange to say, she had only been under treatment for eight days, and her hearing h-is been full}' restored. This fortunate girl is nearly in ecstasies over her good fortune. The next subject under treatment was a laborer named Patrick V rnucis, working at Logan’s Point, who inf »rmed us that latterly he was struck in the right eye with a stone, by which he lost his sight, and of late Ins hit eye has been materially aliected by the blind one ; but, thanks to the skill of Professor Wallenburg, he has now recovered the sight of his two eyes, and is able to discern the smallest print. Herman Schultz, of Hyde, was the last patient introduced. He stated that he had been totally deaf for years, and that he had only been under treatment for a few days, and now he could hear plainly. These gentlemen have numerous other cases under treatment. The cases that we have instanced should be sufficient to remove any doubt from the most sceptical. All the patients that are now under treatment have been tampered with by the medical profession with no satisfactory result, and this, in the major portion of cases, effectual more) aggravation, and makes cure most difficult. The above cases clearly illustrate that Dr. Grant and Professor Walleiiburg are, without doubt, what they profess to be—Oculists, Aurists, and Specialists. We would strongly recommend those who are either afflicted with blindness or deafness to consult these gentlemen at once, as their stay here is limited.— Evenin'/ Tribune, September 24th, 1879.

The Evening Tribune, of October IS, says : Professor Wallenburg and Dr. Grant have again effected some more marvellous cures in blindness. The editor of this journal, accompanied by Mr. J. J. Connor, visited the oculists,’ consulting-rooms at the Criterion Hotel this morning. The first person the editcr • conversed with was Daniel Mahon.??, a laborer, residing at Logan’s Point, who stated that lie had been totally blind for some two weeks, through a severe cold he had contracted. Ho had been under private treatment for a week, but he had got worse instead of better. Hu was brought to Professor Wallenbunj on the lltli inst., and since then he lias hern under this clever oculist’s treatment, with the result that he is now recovering the sight of both eyes. John Chalmers, a brickmaker, residing at Pelichet Bay, stated that he had been blind of the right eye for over nine weeks, and the left one was commencing to become affected by the right one. He was under treatment at the hospital, but without any beneficial result. Ho had been under Professor Wallenburg’a treatment three weeks, and he can now discern the smallest object with both eyes. Patrick Connor, a miner, residing at Hindon, was the next patient consulted. He had been totally blind of the right eye for three month?, and had been in the hospital under treatment, which, he states, tended to make the right eye worse, and to injure the left one. He went under Professor Walleuburg’s treatment on the 9th October, and now lie is perfectly cured, and intends starting to follow his calling on Monday next. —Tuapcka Times, 15th November, 1871). AN ACKNOWLEDGEMENT. To the Editor. Sir, —You will much oblige me, a? well as benefit the public in general, by inserting in vour columns regarding the cure effected on ray right eye, which was totally blind when I placed myself ureter the treatment of Doctors Grant and Wallonbmg. I also found myself using the sight of the left eye. I have now recovered my sight, and am going to work tomorrow. Out of gratitude to those gentlemen, allow me to thank them, and hope all those suffering in the eyes may avail themselves of their skill,—l am. &c., Patrick Francis. Witness—W. J. Bawden, Logan’s Point, Dunedin, 7th October, 1879. A WOX7DERFUL CURE. To Du. Grant and Piofe.ssou Wallenr.DiiG. Gentlemen, —Allow me to thank you for the wonderful cure you have performed in my case.
