PRIVATE ENTRANCE TO CONSULTING ROOMS, MORAY PLACE Opinions of the Peess. Graf ton Argus. — Blindness and Deafness. «We can now speak positively as to the skill of Dr. Grant and Professor Wallcnburg. Yesterday afternoon we saw two cases unler treatment in which a cure is certain. The first was that of a man named Henry Cnllernc, suffering from deafness and heavy ulceration in both ears for a period of nine years. He has been treated only three days, the ulceration has healed, the discharge from the ears stopped, and the man s hearing improved in a wonderful degree. We have seen the man un. ier treatment, and have these particulars from his own lips. In the second ca=e, equally good results have been achieved. A young man (George Albury), a bushman, came into Gafton, intending to proceed to Sydney for treatment for almost total Wndnes, but as in the first case, he saw Dr. Grant and Professor Wallenburg's advertisement, and decided to give them a trial. Since his birth he has been completely blind in his left eye, and the Doctor and Professor at once old him nothing could be done for that. The right eye has been nearly blind for twelve years ; as Albury described it, it appeared as if a eaf of a tree fell across the sigl t. In fact, an opacity had covered the eye, and the eyelid had nearly closed. He has been four days under reatment, and is now able to raise the eyelid to the fullest extent in the strongest light, and yesterday could see tho strokes of a pen niado on apcr, at a distance of fully eishtcon inches, as also a single hair-and this in a partially darkened room. Excepting a slight weakness consequent upon the severe treatment the eye has undergone, the sight is now restored to its natural state. Albury speaks in very grateful terms of the good these gentlemen have done him, and in a short time will be fully cured. Such instances as these cannot be spoken of as luck, aid clearly demonstrate I hat Dr. Grant and Professor WaUenburg are fully competent to carry out what they profess. During our visit several other patients were under treatment, in all of whom a partial if not a perfect cure will be effected." Caprlcorman, Rockhampton. " It is not surprising that, as Dr. Grant and Professor Walllcnburg's skill as oculists, aurists, and specialists becomes more widely known, their practice is greatly extended. From many sources the evidence is increasing of the cures they have effected even during the very anort time they have been in Rockhampton. In ord fc r to make further inquiries into the case previously reportei, as well as to note any features of interest regarding new patients, we yesterday morning visited Dr. Grant and Professor Wallenburg's Consulting Rooms, in Eist btrcct. On entering the room, Mrs. Lewis, of George Street, a patient who was previously mentioned as bavins been six years almost totally blind, was leaving This woman has been completely cured for nearly a fortnight, but at the request of the Doctor and Professor returned Uuu tuey might see how her eyes were continuing. The eyes were perfectly char, the si^ht as fully restore! as ever it was, and to those who had seen them amo ith ago the change was equally astonishing and gratifying. Miss Elizabeth Madden, who was also previously alluded to as being obliged to give up her occupation of dressmaking, is fully restored to her sight, and the patches of white which darkened her pupils are completely removed. James Pa«coc, an old resident of the town, has not been able to see in the ri^ht eye for fifteen years, havino- lost the sight or it through cold and inflammation contacted during the first flood in Rockhamptou. After five or six visits to Dr. Grant and Prolessor WaUenburg, the sight in this eye Iris been restored. This man's wife, Sarah Pascoe, bas been totally bUnd in the right eye for ten months, and the sight was almost gone in the other, bsing able to see only at the: one side. This eye is now "almost well, and on closing it and looking with eye formerly blind she could see the water in the river. William Brewer has been totally deaf in the ri"ht ear for the past six years. He has bjen only a few times under treatment, and could hear the ticking of a watch at the distance of a foot°from the ear. Charles Clayton, a carpenter, formerly working at Blackall and on the Barcoo, got cold in the eyes by sitting in a draught The result was total losp ol sight nine months ago, during which time he has been trying one medical m.vi after another in" vain. When he came to Drs. I* rant arid WaUenburg. his eyes were in a fiightful condition, and it is a wonder the man retained his reason through his terrible sufferings. JJo has been about twelve days under treatment, and in a darkened loom he can soe perfectly well. Gustav Ernst, a cabinet-maker's appiwitiee, in the employment of Mr. M'kenny, npholst rcr, received an iujmy to his left eye when only one year old by a whirlwind carrying a piece of stick against it The eye had been totally useless since, but Drs. G. and W. have restored the sight. Oases might be multiplied indefinitely, but these, all of which we have .seen, should be suffiuent 1.0 r 'move doubt from the most sceptical. It should be remembered, too, tli.-tt neaily all tho paiients who con > to Pi- Gr.int and the IVufe^.r h.ive bc^n un let- nn,uc s^f.il treatment cl-mwli-iv, which, in most ea.es .•i-.-ravates the onginul .symptoms aivl renders the cine more diilic lit.
