ca; tf glattjj gsfotfmi. ASTORIA. OREGON: SUNDAY. --NOVEMBER 23, 1890 Estimates at "Washington carefully compiled, show that the political standing of the house of representa tives in the fifty-second congress will be 222 democrats, 92 republicans and seventeen fanners' alliance. On a straight ballot this would give the democrats 130 more votes than the republicans, but as, of the seventeen alliance men twelve are from the South and would, probably vote with the democrats, this would give the latter 142 over the republicans, or 13i majority over the republicans and the other five alliance men. Dark pic turo for the G. 0. P. is nt it? Oxlt five more Sundaj-swill appear in tljis year, and 1890 will then take its place in the long lino of departed jeitrs. frieghted with hopes and fears, joys and sorrows, happiness and grief to Mirth's children. It is the time whoa most people begin to take retro spective glances back over the year so r its close, reilect joyfully over the Itfafeuroft ami sorrowfully over the uiibuppy events which memory always rctaias so carefully. Life is to us as we make it. and much of what is called chance or bad luck is attributable to some orror or fault of our own if care ful soarcli is made. Strive then to make oach day a success, marked by no errors, and the whole year wall time be one of almost unalloyed pleasure and complete succeas. lluirfiOAi) prospects, though not re markably alluring, arc still tinged wRlt hopes of ultimate fruition, and tittrngli not sufficiently attractive to cattle one lo feel jubilant are yet out lined clearly enough to prevent one from friviiig up in utter despair of ever bewg able to note the arrival and de parture of trans-continental trains at Astoria. Some plans are being laid and will be continued through the the coming winter, which it is possible may evolve some scheme that will eventually secure railroad connection. Such must be the case or Astoria will be doomed lo a more quiet existence than is desirable, but even faint as is the prospect of a road being started early ia the spring, it is tangible enough to dispel any gloomy anticipa tions of silurian quiet Bnrrxn, far better, would life be in tins world, if some of the mean and hateful natures could be changed. It is indeed strange how some people can always take pleasure in saying mean and erroneous things concerning olhors, instead of repeating any good thing they may hear concerning them. Full of bitterness and malice must be the heart of the man who has no kind words for a fellow man, but whose entire conversation or writing is of a scurrilous or villifving nature. To such a one it would seem that the sun was dark, the earth had lost its beauty, the brilliancy of the stars was obscured, the sweetest flowers were void of fragrance, everything appeared shrouded in gloom and all was dark and drear as an Arctic winter. Such n person is a moral dyspeptic, and bis mind is very bilious and appar ently incapable of mental digestion. God pity those in that condi tion! Even the lowest of earth's mortals turn with pity and contempt from the man or woman whose sole aim appears to be casting wormwood and gall in the path of others, more favored by forlnuc or blessed with mental qualifications than their own nnliappy selves.

Dr. Prentice "Will Core the First Case Of Cross-Eyes and Epileptic Fits Free On the Day of His Arrival in Astoria. Those Who lYith to IUtc the Doctor Treat Them Should Call Early, or Ther Say Lose the Opportnnitj. A man well known In this community writes the following interesting letter: "1 was chopping a stump four weeks aco. when a flying chin struck me in the eye; for a short time 1 was entirely blind. Then partial sight returned again. I nurtured nope and continued to treat it at home, until ten days ago, when I began to abandon hope of ever seeing perfectly again, unless some thing more than ordinary was done. 1 tlien counciled two of the leading Oculists of Portland, who told me one eye would have to be cut out to save the other. It did not exactly suit me to have my eye cut out, and so I sought other council. I went to Dr. Prentice, the Oculist, then at Portland, and he laughed at the idea of its being neces sary to cut my eye out; I joined in the laugh, for it was on ray side. 1 have been free from pain since the first day's visit to Dr. Prentice, and im proved steadilj', and am now entirely well again. I feel safe in saying that if Dr. Prentice cannot cure a case he will always say so. Tuos. II. Foss, Giay's River, Wash. A. Touching Scene Witnessed By a Portland Gentleman. One week ago we received an invita tion to witness a delicate surgical oper ation on an eye. 'I he patient was the 17-year-old daughter of Harrison Hay. Tor three years she had been blind in both eyes with a cataract, and was obliged to grope her way about in total darkness. The patient, without taking chloroform, submitted to the following operation : fche was now ready for the surgical part of the work, and we stood in breathless anxiety as Dr. Prentice placed the point of his knife at the side of the eyeball, carefully touched the point of the cornea, then the blade entered the eye; e saw it pass through the eye in front of the pupil and then come out at the opposite side. It was then drawn upward, and a cut made of about one-third of the circumference of the ball. Another instrument was then passed in back of the pupil, and almost on the instant the girl said: "Oh, Dr. Prentice 1 can see j-ou." This was spoken in tones well calculated to bring tears lo one's eyes. From the time the knife touched the eye until the patient could see, it was just one min ute. She was allowed to see those about her for a moment, then the eye was closed and bandaged. In just one week after the operation she came into our office and was able to read our paper. She also wrote a letter home, saying; "Dear parents, I can see and am happv." Mr. Jerome Y. Campbell, General Superintendent of the Willamette Bridge Railway Co., saw this operation. A LETTER. From a Patient Who Was Cored Br Dr. Prentice. Portland, Or., Oct. 7, 1890. To the Suffering: For five years I have suffered, witu sleeplessness, ner vous debility, irritation at the base of the brain, and a terrible kidney disease. I had tried so many remedies that did me no good that at last 1 gave up all hope of ever being a well man again. I tried many prescriptions that were said tote sure cures, and all failed. There were many times during the past few years that I was obliged to lay off from work from two weeks to three months at a time. Lately 1 was run ning down in health very rapidly, and was alarmed. I contemplated leaving thispaitof the country and trying to see if I could not get relief elsewhere. I must say that my faith in doctors was about gone; hut something lead me to visit JJr. I'rentice at tnc tssmona notei. I crowded in with the others and waited my turn, lie examined me, told me where my trouble was, and said he could cure it without m dicine. I can't say that I really believed him, but something in his manner led me to trust him. lie gave me no medicine at all, yet from the day of my first visit I began to improve rapidly. I now sleep as sound as a child. My memory is greatly improved. My kidney disease and brain irritation are entirely well, my appetite splendid, and 1 now enjo3r life and perfect health. Any afflicted person wishing to learn about my case will find me at address below. D. Dooxax, North Pacific Hotel. Portland.
