Their mimes are Mr Nicholas Power and Mr James McGrath, both of Wairnate. The lirst-montioned had been deaf in one car for 11 years. On Wednesday last ho visited the doctor, and obtained some relief. On Thursday ho was perfectly cured, a grass seed and an accumulation of shin which had gathered around it having been extracted. He told us that lie could hear hotter with the car that had been operated upon than he could with the other. The last-mentioned visited the doctor at the same time. Ho was slightly deaf in tire left and totally deaf in the right car. A growth having been cxtracrcd from the right ear, he entirely recovered his healing He told ns that he could hear his own voice —a thing that he had not done for 1(5 years. The case of Mr Alexander Aitchison is worth chronicling. He had been totally deaf in one ear for four years and slightly affected in the other, lie is now perfectly restored, and wasso gratified that he to-day introduced a suffering friend to the doctor. Mr Aitchison tells us that no could only hoar his watch ticking by moans of the diseased ear by pressing it tightly to it. Now, he can hear it at a distance of a foot, although Ids ear is stopped with wadding. ('‘Oamaru Mail," Dec. 10.) To the liditor. Sin, —About Professor Wallenhurg and his cures. lam glad that in previous issues yon have called attention to the work and remarkable success of the Professor in a few days of Ids residence in tins town. I only just wish to say that I can confirm the tuithl'nllncss of several of the cases mentioned by you, for I have seen the patients myself. 1 would like to urge on all the peopleof Oamaru and neighbourhood the importance of having any affection of those pints of the body winch ho specially treats attended to at once, or when he has gone they will regie! that they did not avail themselves of his skill. Such men as he arc a blessing to humanity. Hoping this may lead to the relief of sonic sufferer or sufiereis, 1 am, Ac. Cir.vs. E. Bakeev. (“Oamaru Mail,” Dec. “22.) Mr James Gibson, a shepherd employed at Station Peak called upon us this morning, and requested us to bear testimony to the fact that he has been cured of almost total deafness by Professor Wallenhurg. He had been more or less deaf for DO years, hut for the last 20 years his hearing has been getting gradually worse. Ten days ago Mr Gibson placed himself under the treatment of the Professor, and has so far recovered that ho experiences no dillicnlty in hearing ordinary conversation. At the same time Professor Wallenhurg introduced to us Mr Yi'illiam McKenzie, of Xakauui. He had been so deaf for Id years that he had been unable to hear ordinary sounds. On Saturday last he became a patient of the Professor's, and obtained immediate relief. His hearing is now as perfect as could be desired. (“ Oamaru Mail,” Dec. 29.) To the Editor. Bin, —Permit me through your paper to direct the attention of the public to the following. At the request of a member of my congregation, unable to pay, and suffering with eyes nearly blind and inllamed many years, I applied to Professor Wallenhurg for advice and treatment gratis. He, with generosity and kindness readily granted the favor. I made the application because I had learned from other clergymen that the professor is ever ready to give his services to the poor when asked to do so by any person on whose honesty he can rely in being assured that no deception is being practised on him. This person was under the care of several medical men, hut without any beneficial result. Professor Wallenhurg has had the case under treatment for about ten days, and now the eyes are perfectly well and the person is likely to he able to earn a livelihood, to the great delight'of all his friends, whose lasting [gratitude Professor Wallenberg has earned - I know of my knowledge three others who benefited voiy much by the treatment of the worthy Professor. I write this letter without the request of anyone; but 1 consider it a duty owing to the Professor's kindness; and I reccomcnd those suffering in eye or ear to apply to him whilst they have the present favorable opportunity. I hereby tender my host thanks to Professor Wallenhurg for his charity to the afllictcd poor, —1 am Ac., W:>r. Coleman*, Homan Catholic Cleigyman. The Eye and Ear.—Professor Wallenhurg is effecting some marvellous cures in cases of blindness and deafness. At his invitation we visited the consulting rooms at the Albion Hotel, yesterday morning, when we conversed with two or three out of a total of about thirty patients present. The first case brought under notice was that of James llohortson, of Morton Mains, who was suffering from heavy films in both eyes. He assured us that for the past six years he had suffered acutely, and during four years of that period he had been under medical treatment without receiving any benefit—in fact lie went from had to worse. Placing himself under Professor Wallenhurg’s treatment he speedily came round, and yesterday could distinctly sec a hair at the ordinary reading distance llichard Atkinson, of Invercargill, who had been treated in Dunedin and Melbourne for impaired eyesight, also hove testimony to the Professors skill. He had been totally blind of one eye, the other being considerably affected, but could now distinguish the time on a clock a couple of chains oft. Mis W. Jewett, of lliverton, was the next patient introduced. She stated that she had been suffering from deafness for the last six years, and during that time her husband had expended somcliko TKIU in endeavoring to dfcct a cure. Under Professor Wallcnburg’s treatment she had so far recovered her hearing that she could without dillicnlty hear a watch ticking. H. N. Dates was the next patient consulted; he had been totally deaf of one car for fourteen years, the deafness arising from an attack of scarlet fever. In England his case was regarded as a hopeless one, and tliis was the more serious since the remaining ear was commencing to sympathise with the affected one. lie had only deen under the Professor’s ticatment a few days, and could now hear perfectly well. Constable Duchanan also states that the occulist lias succeeded in curing him of partial deafness. Those arc a few patients indiscriminately singled out from the patients in the consulting room, and they certainly go to show that the Professor is thoroughly up to his business. At present he has 75 patients under treatment. We would strongly urge all who arc afllieted with blindness or deafness to pay this oculist a visit, and at once, since his stay here is limited. — “ Southland Times,” Nov. 25, 1879.
