OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. Blindnes.s and Dkafkess. 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 was that of a Mi*s White, aged 11 years, the daughter of a settler at Oamaru, who lias been totally blind for years. This young lady been under the treatment of these clever oculists for three davs. and, wonderful to say, her eyesight has been perfectly restored. The father of the girl assured us that he had placed her under the care of sevoral medical men, who had fnii-i t<> do her any good, despite the money he had lavished upon her. The next was the case of Miss Hughes, a Dunedin resident, who stated that she had been deaf for a period of over three years. Strange to say, she has only been under treatment eight days, and her hearing has l,ten ful'.v restored. Thi3 fortunate girl is delighted' over her good fortune. The next subject under treatment was a laborer, iiame.l Patrick Francis, working at Logon's Point, who informed us that latt-rly he was struck itr the rye with z by which 1 -sS hi# night, and of l;.t« H.< loit eve has b„-et: nsat-'mlly a fleeted i-y slui blind <vie ; but, tiiaoki to the skill of I'rofVsso:" Wall-mbur;.', hhas now recovered the ?ight rf his two .'jv=, r.nd ir, ;„ble tt. discern the smallc.-t :.rint. Herman Shulis: r.f !!vdr, wi3 the la-t patient intri.lucef 1 .. He s'r.ted that lie bad be a totally cl«af for years, ar.d that he had only bevn Limit.' treatment for a fow dayc, and now he could hear plainly. Theso gentlemen have numerous other cases under treatment. The cases that we have hwtanccd should be sufficient to remove any doubt from the most scepticil. All the patients that arc now under treatment have been tampered with by the medical profession with no satisfactory result, and this in the major portion of cases causes more aggravation, and makes effectual cur« more difficult. The above eases clearly illustrate that Dr. Grant and Professor WaLenburg are, without doubt, what they profess to be, Oculists, Aurists, and Specialists. We would strongly recommend those who are either aftl-cted with blindness or deafness to consult these centleu.cn at once, as their stay here is ifimited.—Evening Tribune, September 24th, 1579. The Evening Tribune, of October IS, says : Professor Wallenburg and Dr. (Irant have again effected some more marvellous elites in blindness. The editor of this journal, accompanied by Mr. J. J. Connor, visited the oculists' consultingrooms at the Criterion Hotel this morning. The first person the editor conversed with was Daniel Mahoney, a laborer, residing at Logan's Point, who stated that he had been totally blind for some two weeks, through a severe cold he hud contracted. He had been under private treatment for a week, but he got worse instead of better. He was brought to Professor Wallenburg on the 11th inst., and, since then he has been under this clever oculist's treatment, with the result that he is now recovering the sight of both eyes. John Chalmers, a briekmaker, residing at Pelichct Bay, stated that he had been blind of the right eye for over niii'; weeks, and the left one was beginning to become affected by the right one. He was under treatment at the Hospital, but without any beneficial result. He has been under Professor Wallenburg's treatment three weeks, and can now discern the smallest object with both eyes. Patrick Conno', a miner, residing at Hindon, was the next patient consulted. He had been totally blind of the rk'ht eye for three montli3, and had been in the Hospital under treatment, which, lie states, tended to make the right eye worse, and to injure the left one. He went under Professor Wallenburg's treatment on the 9th October, and now he is perfectly cured, aud intends starting to follow his calling on Monday next. The cases that arc instanced above are ones in which the patients went to the oculists entirely destitute of funds, and were treated out of simple humanity and charity ; con.sc(|uentlv, Professor Walienburg and Dr. Grant are deserving of the thanks of the community for the kindness and charity displayed in these _cases.— Tuapeka Times, November 15th, 1579. AN ACKNOWLEDGMENT. TO THE EDITOR. Sir, You will much oblige me, as well as benefit the public in general, by inserting in your columns regarding the cure effected on my right eye, which was totally blind when I placed mvself under the treatment of Drs. Grant and Wallenburg. I also found mvself losing the sight of the left eve. I have now recovered my sight, and am going to work to-morrow. Out of gratitude to those gentlemen allow me to thank them, and hope all those suffering in the evc3 may avail themselves of tbeir skill. —I am, &c., Patrick Francis. Witn'ss—W. J. Baw den, Logan's Point, Dunedin, 7th October, 1579.
