(by our special kbporteb.) What is locally Considered a Miracle has lately been performed at Silver Water, sometimes called " Ibbettown," so many Ibbetts live there, a prettily-situated village near Auburn, and about 10 miles from Sydney, on the main suburban line; News of the perfect restoration of health do Mi. WQlwm Ibbett having got abroad, we dispatched one of our reporters to the district to institute a searching investigation into the case, and find out The Absolute Truth from Mr. Ibbett and tho neighbours, who appear to have made the case one of general interest in the neighbourhood for some time past, for it ha 3 been a daily subject of conversation amongst the many people acquainted with the particulars. The reporter could not make the people lie questioned understand which member of the Ibbett family he wanted to sco till ho Mentioned tho Illness if the man in question, at which the required house was at once pointed out as that of the man the doctors Could not cure, and Hospitals turned out as Incurable, but Clements Tonic had Thoroughly Restored. The reporter was fortunate enough to btain the interview he sought, when he isked :—" Will you do me the kindness, Mr. bbett, to tell me how your complaint first itarted, how it progressed, and how you imtlly recovered ? " "Iwill," answered Mr. Ibbett. "It ommenced with sevoro pains in tha head, .nd afterwards pains down tho neck antl pine came on. 1 hen all at once I lost my ppetito. I could'nt look at my food, the ■cry sight of it turned me sick. My ligestion went all wrong. What little . did eat (and I forced myself to eafc aomo.hing now and then to keep body and soul ogether) gave me great paw. I only took oft food, but even thia would not digest, rat Turned Sour and Fermented n my stomach, causing me to suffer terribly rom wind and flatulence. Besides, I could ;et no sleep. I did not get, as a rule, more 'han an hour's sleep ft night, and tlint in listurbed, uneasy snatches, each of short luration, which did me no good at ail. I iiad to Give up my BiSlet it the Auburn Meat Works, and I ÜBed to jit all day long in the chair feeling nerveless. and languid, with no energy pv desire to move. The pains in my hack got' worse aily, especially along the spine. I got most distressingly weak, and strangely nervous. I have been accustomed to be in tho works with the whirl and crash of machinery goin# on all rouiid mo, and I never suffered the least inconvenience, but now every sound went __„ .^Through, me H&.e & Knife, md would startle and give me such a shock ,hat I should almost fall to the ground, and f trembled liko a leaf," . ■,- " Why did'nt you see a dbctor 1" "I did, and what use, was it? I had 3everal, and obeyed their orders, and took Dheir physic. To what end ? I .only got .vorse and worse. Fiually t|jey gave me up. They said they could do «6thiag m«re fpr me, and they had' done nothing then; and one of them told me that ho had given me •nodicines strong enough to kill a horse, This, I believe, was a fa,ctj,;but it evidently w not the treatment my cUaease required, for it entirely failed to relieve me. i - " You must have got pre.tty low-spirited."

I fell away in a very short time from 10 steae 4 lbs. to 8 stone 5 lbs., and my face was pale and colourless. "Did you suffer in any other way that you've not yet mentioned 1" ■ ■' "Yes; my kidneys were affected, and a dull, dragging pain in the small of tne.ba.ck was continually distressing me; (the doctor said this was a sign of kidney disease), and my water was very high coloured,, out I don't care to go into further particulars .as to my kidney symptoms;'".but I can only, assure ,you they caused me great distress. As a tost resort, on my wife'ssuggestion; I ■-. was taken to the Hospital, Sydney. I thought that if it was possible 'to cure, me at all I should have the best chance there.
