Blixdsess akd DEAFNESS. The skill of Dr. Wallenburg as an oculist has just been exhibited in a most satisfactory manner by his successful treatment of what was perhaps one of the most difficult ca.-'fs which he has dealt with since his arrival in InvercargilL Eight or nine days ago a little girl, whose parents reside at Winton, was brought to town by a relative in tbe l.opi that relief miirht be afforded. The child, who had been under medical treatment, but withont improvement, for about ten weeks previously, wa3_ found to be suffering from acute in fl.iiimi a tinn of the right eye. The sight seemed to be completely lost, and the doctor was at first doubtful ss to whether he would be justified in iaking the case in hand, but he tina'lv decided to do so, and his efforts have resulted most happily, the little patient being now able to use the injured eye with as m!t?b freedom as the other, and her re.'atiw, from whom the particulars were obtained, was to-day informed that she might be taken home to her parents.—Southland Daily News, Dec. 3rd, 1870. The Eye and Ear.—Professor Wallen burgh 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. w lien 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 Robertson, of Morton Mains, who was suffering from heavy films in both eyes. He assured us that for the past six years he had suffered acntely, and during four years of that pe-iod he had been under medical treatment without receiving any benefit—in fact he went from bad to worse. Placing him«elf under Profos-or Wallenburg's treatment ho speedily came round, and yesterday could distinctly see a hair at the ordinary reading distance. Richard Atkinson, of Jnvercargill, who had been treated in Dnnedin and Mellio.irre for impaired evrsight, nl o bore tetimony to the Professor's skill. He had been totally blind of one eve, the other on'! being considerably affected,' but could now distingni-li the time on a clock a couple of chains off. Mrs. W. .Terrett, of Uivertoii, was the next patient introduced. She stated that she had l;ccn svff.-rini; from deafne.-s for the last six years, and during Jli.it time licr liu°kind had expended bke Llf>o in endeavoring to effect a etir.-.

The livening Tribune, of October IS, nv3 : I'rofessor Wallenburg and Dr. . :rant have ag-.in effected some more marvelloßi cures in blindness. The editor of this juirnal, r.cc'Uipp.nicd by Mr. •!. J. Conno-, visited the oculists' consultingrooms at the Criterion Hotel this morning. The first person the editor conversed with was D.-.niel Mahonry, a laborer, residing at Logan's Point, who stated that he had been totally blind for some two weeks, through a severe cold he h»d contracted. He had been under private treatment for a week, but lie got worse instead of better. He was broti-jht to Professor Wallenburg on the 11th inst., and, sines then he has been tinder this clever oculist's treatment, with the result that he is now recovering the sight of both eyes. John Chalmers, a hrickmakcr, residing at Pelichefc F»ay, stated that he had been blind of the right eye for over nine weeks, and the left one was beinnning to become affected by the right one. He was under treatment at the Hospital, hut withont any beneficial result. He has been under Professor Wallenburg's treatment three week-, 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 ri.ht eye for three months, and had been in the Hospital under treatment, which, he s'ate*, 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, and intends starting to follow his calling on Monday next. The cases that are instanced above are ones in ,-hich the patients went to t.he oculists entirely destitute of funds, and were treated out of simple humanity and charity ; consequently, Professor Wallenburg and Dr. (; n .nt are deserving of the thanks ot the community for tbe kinducss and charity displayed "in these cases.—Tuapeka Tames, November 15th, 1579.
