SEWING MACHINES MADE BY THE BRITANNIA COMPANY, COLCHESTER, ENGL\ND, combine the best parts of the best Machines (avoiding their defects) with somo recent special improve ments, which no other Machine possesses. Every make of Machine, however far'removed from excellence, professes te be better than any other. The task of selecting a Sewing Machine is therefore rather a diilicu'it one, especially if the purchaser has no knowledge of machines, and has no other guide than the representation of various dealers Many people convinced of the advantage to be derived from using a Machine for needlework do not yet possess one because among so many they are unable to satisfy themse'ves as to which make is the best. As a practical man and an Engineer allow mo to point out some c*f the advantages of these Machines. They will dr. all that any other Machine will, and rZo it better, including Hemming, Quilting, Felling, Cording, Binding, Braiding. Stitching, &c, &c, with a perfect stitch alike on both sides. They are fitted with xn improved break, which prevents the Machine turning the wrong way, and so entangling and breaking the thread. They make less noise than most Machines, and is the nearest possible approach to noiseless. They are very simple, and will run for years without costing a shilling for repairs.

Wish ing you every happiness, I remain, dear Sir, Yours ever gratefully, FR. AUGUST MULIEB. Witness—F. Batjman'- Lobethal, August 15,1573. .••--■ ■ OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. Mr. I. S. Rosenthal.—This celebrated oculist and aurist arrived in Dubbo from Orange on Friday last and since then he has been pretty largely employed.' His quarters at the Royal Hotel have been attended by people from all pirts of the district, from the Bogan. Castlereagh, and Macquarie. And, as far as an unprofessional person can judge, we can say—and say it boldly-that Mr Rosenthal has effected some wonderful cures. We determined to inquire for ourselves into his cases, and the consequences have been that although at first we were rather sceptical about that great skill that worked such miracles, as it were, on the blind and deaf, we are now thoroughly , convinced. Yesierday we saw three of his patients, ; picked, we may say, promiscuously, from a number under treatment, and we will just note them. The first was a Mrs White, resident at Coonamble. She was almost, indeed, we may say totally, blind, when she came to Mr Rosenthal Now, she can see per fectly well out of one eye, and the other, though rather weak just' at present, promises to be as well as it ever was. Mr Thomas Matthews, i,f Meri Meri, when he placed himself under the doctor, could not see at all well, and had a cataract on the right eye. The cataract is disappearing, and the sight of the eye improving daily. The left eye is perfectly well. Mrs Wilds, of Gradgery,; Merri Merri, was very deaf—a person had to shout in her ear to be heard ; she was • also,; indeed, we may my totally, blind, when she 1 came to Mr Rosenthal. Now she can see perfectly : well out of one eye, and the other, though rather weak just at present, promises to be as as well as it ever was. Mr Thomas Matthews, of Merri Merri, when he placed himself under the Doctor, could not i see at all well, and had a cataract on the right eye. The cataract is disappearing, and the sight of the eye improving daily. The left eye is perfectly well. Mrs Wilds, of Gradgery, Merri Merri, was very deaf — a person had to shout in her ear to be heard ; she was also suffering from defective vision ; in fact, as she expressed it in the presence of the writer, "she could just see daylight." A scum had gathered over both her eyes ; she can now hear fairly, and in a week or so a perfect cure is sure to take place. She can see almost as well as ever she could ; but of course the vision is somewhat weak, and the eyes, through being under treatment, a good deal inflamed. Mr D. M'Killop, J.P., of Terra Bella, had every * symptom of approaching deafness—the hearing of one ear was nearly stopped. Yesterday he underwent an operation performed by Dr Rosenthal, and, after a lapse of seven minutes, the ear regained all its normal properties. It is, in the face of these facts— which we can vouch for ourselves—impossible to question the Doctor's great skill. We have no hesitation in advising all suffering from diseases of theo ye and ear to pay him a visit, for wo are con vinced t hat fa cure can be effected he is the man to doit. I/f; t is impossible to do ao he will not I buoy, is patient with false hoDes—an admirable ' trait m hisoharacter — Dubbo Dispatch ' I ORANW&, Thursday Evening,—Mr W.Evans C P.S ' to the Dubbo Dispuif\-— "For the benefit of sub scribers please sta +s .that »» b a i Ay. deafness of go{ije years' -^isg,"* " '



Medical. ,! ■' A ' Mi- I. S. Rosenthal.—Since this -ww . ' '■'' arrival in Orange lie has been visited by un-S" 15; seventy patients suffering from diseases of tv„T v': and ear, and pome astonishing cures W.l^6 effected. Several of these came under our Lv n and being persons well-known in the district c*e * easily accessible to any person wishing to be conv?r, aß a ' of the truth of the assertion, we may mentin-n . * "*'; ' Mr Hurkctt. of Cargo, has been blind for thht^* yr-ars, and having placed himself under Mr Br»en tbal's care is now cured, and declares he __..*?'' tinctly. A little girl, aged about ten years n.-TS" ; Emma Horsely, had been blind since the a?T ' twelve monlhs. Her eyes now are quite cure. Li capable of performing endless execution on the 3h ceptible feelings of the other sex when she »iV* little older. A case of deafness of twenty yew * standing, declared by the patient to be incurable wo1 - by a skilful operation, cured in five minutes klriV residents may remember the case of Mr Livingston who has sought every available remedy far a dlseu' ' of the eyes. The last time we saw this gentleman iio ; ! was led about; yesterday, after being under Mr " Rosenthal's care for about a fortnight, the chan.e 'I extraordinary, and predicates a perfect cure. We saw another lady who had been totally blind for twenty years, and now sees. It is needless to m*oltinl» cases. We may mention that Mr Rosenthal onl» ' remains a day or two longer, and, fortheinfonaatior of up-country readers, may state that under nn' i circumstance will he proceed further than Dubbo-!. ■■ Western Examiner, '~~ Mr I. S. Rosenthal.—The gentleman, whose - ' special forte Is In the disease of the eye and ear _S^C | been practising in Bourke, and from the notices of the*'. •■'* * I Rress which preceded him we expected to find* ' I physician capable of fulfilling the expectation enter. tamed. We have not been disappointed. Tfiefesti" '*' * monials and the favourable newspaper notices are all ' fully borne out—they are truthful. We have ourselve. • \ seen three instances where Dr Rosenthal has restore'! A. j sight to the totally Mind for years, besides improved; ' vision to many who were suffering from Opthalmi.' '; diseases of months or two yesrs' standing. W mention, because he is well known throughout this ' * district. Mr James Horsfall, whose defective sight has been radically cured. MissFlagery, of this town, who ' has suffered from deafness for years owing to .right' from the bite of a dog, had her hearing restored in,„ our presence. A cataract was successfully removed , from the eye of a blackfellow in the service of Jf M. O'Shannessy, Esq, Fort Bourke. Mr Stewart, who has been Mind for about sixteen years, can now Yes. * almost to re?*d print. A girl named Jones, who had been nearly blind for two years, can now see the smallest object, and plays with other children. A ; young lady from Woomba, Willcannia, named'E__|.si* ham, totally blind from some complaint, can now see but in every case a sudden influx of light must he guarded against. The successful treatment at Bogan dena of Mrs H J. Adam's eyes is alone sufficient to" establish Dr Rosenthal's reputation as an oculist/We could erumerale twenty instances of persons well known in this town and district whose sight has been removed ; and we think it but a duty on out.:; part to notice the cases which are known tons, and to endorse the public opinion which has been so* ' favourably and r'cservedlv bestowed. Mr Bayley ; who has had bad eyes for years, h.-r- Icon completely1 cured, and so have the eyes of Mrs Reynolds, flelas fulfilled every promise made ?.nd effected in every instance some v.-ry remarkable cures. Dr Rosenthal'*' has also this in his favour—he does not send away* the poor, nor does he exact tVe least farthing from thn*e in indigent circumstances. On the contrary, he ' could net have had under his gratuitous treatment ' ■ fewer than twelve persons ; and to one woman'and":i three children suffering from almost total blindness; > he supplemented his services by raising a subscription to relieve their necessities.— Central Australian ani Bourke Telegraph, December 14,1872.
