The Case of Mr. Cohen. To the Editor of The Press: Sir : A statement in your p« per of this morning, heat’ed assaults and batteries on four cap girls, is a misrepresentation. The facta of the case are those : I rented one of my rooms to a capmaker, who em ploys a number of girls. Opposite to it there are, in anaHjoiting building, a party of boys employed in making cigars, who have been in the habit of talk ing to these girls through the window in a manner that would shock the modesty'of any right-minded person. Such was the case yesterday morning, when I went up stairs to remonstra'-e with them, as I had frequently done before, and finding them in one of my own rooms, ! ejected them, which I had a right to do. That I struck them with a hammer is not true. I never made the remark which Officer Baker is alleged to have stated. My family reside a long dis tance from the store 5 none were present. Neither do any of them understand German. Jennie Perry was in my store, this morning, and* offered, in the presence of several persons, to drop the matter, if I would pay her to do so. This will illustrate the na ture of the complaint and the character of the com plainants. As for going up stairs and throwing their dinners out of the window, that is simply ridiculous Yours, respectfully, M. I>. COHEN. Philadelphia, May 1, 1363. • THE POE ICE.

Yours truly, JOHN NOTT. CATARRH CURED. [PROM REV. P. R. RUSSELL, LYNN, MASS.] I have been much troubled with catarrh of the worst type for some twenty years. It gradually grew worse, producing cough and hoarseness, de stroying the sense of smell, and breaking down my general health to such a degree as to compel me to resign ifiy pastorate and suspend public speaking. I made diligent use of the usual remedies, such as snuffs of various kinds, nitrate of silver, tar-water, olive-tar, and inhalations, but without any very Balutary effects. Last summer I heard of Dr. Lighthill’s successful mode of treating catarrh, visited him, and put myself under his treatment. I began immediately to improve, and this improve ment has gone on to the present time. My catarrh has gradually melted awaj*, my cough has disap peared, my voice has become natural, and I am once more able to preach the blessed Gospel. Let me advise all troubled with catarrhal difficulties to ap ply to Dr. LighthiU. P. R. RUSSELL. Lynn, Mass., Feb. 1,1862. Institution por the Deaf and Dumb, New York, January 7,1862.

Philadelphia, March 3lst, 1863. *j r the past three or four years my health has been gradually running down, and I for some time could not understand the cause of it At first I was not much, alarmed, but, as time wore on, my sufferings kept getting worse. I to lose flesh, my natural color left me, and mv appetite became very irregular. I ap plied to several physicians, but they did not seem to understand my disease, tor I kept growing worse. I was troubled with palpitation of the heart, difficulty of breathing, oftentimes trembling of the limbs, soreness in my throat, loss of memory, and great aversion to business and to society. At times I was very gloomy, and What caused me to was my inability to coUect my thoughts vigorously on any subject; suffered much from swimming in the head, and much from fears of getting insane, for my physicians had told me that I had symptoms of fits; but, after persevering for a long time in the old school remedies, and in the homcoopathlc also, I was informed my case was beyond cure. Seeing the advertisement of Prom. Bou&s & Gallo way in The Press and Bulletin, I called on them at 1220 Wal nut street, and, after conversing with them a few mi nutes, they told me that they could cure me, and that without throwing polsouous drugs into ray system. This to me was rather astonishing; still I believed it. for I bad.fcnown some persons they bad cured, who had beau worse than even I was. I commenced their treatment, which is perfectly pleasant, and l am happy to say that, in Dine treatments of about ten minutes each, I was per fbctly cured. This in astonishing to me, for I had given up all hopts of being cured and of having my mind re stored In answer to rav convictions of duty to my suf fering fellow-men, I-have made this statement or facts in relation to my own wonderful cure; and I kc ow it is permanent, for sufficient time has elapsed for a return: therefore I feel certain; I shall take pleasure in being referred to by any person or persons who may be suffer ingasl was.
