GREAT EXCITEMENT IN WALES A BOUT A MARVELLOUS CURE.

LIVING SIX YEARS WITHOCIT GOIKG TO BBD. Mb. Editok,— While spending a few days at tho pleasant sonaido town of Aberystwith, Cardiganshire, Wales, I henrcl related what seemed to me either a fabulous story or a marvellous cure. Tlio atory wns, that a poor sufferer who had nob been able to lie down in bed for bis long years, given up to die by all the Doctors, had been speedily cured by some Patent Medicine. It was related with the moro implicit confidence from the circumstance, as was said, that tho Vicar of Llanrystyd was familiar with the facts, and could vouch for tho truth of tho report. Haviug a little curiosity to know how Btioh stories p'o\7 in travelling, I took the liberty while at the village of Ijlanrystyd to call upon the Vioar, the Rev. T. Evans, and to enquire about this wonderful cure. Though a total stranger to him, both ho and his wife most graciously entertained me in a halfhour's conversation, principally touching the oaso of Mr Pugh, in which they seemed to take a deep and sympathetic! interest, having been familiar -with his sufferings, aud now- rejoiced in what seemed to them a moat remarkable cure. . The Vicar remarked that ho presumed his name had beon coancoted with the report from his having mentioned the , case to Mr John Thomas, a chotuiat : of Llanon. Ho said Mr Pugh whs formerly a resident of their parish, but was now living in the parish of fjlandde:nol. He strongly vouched Mr Win. Pugh s i cbarnoter as a respectable farmer and worthy of credit. I left tho Venerable Vioar with a livelier sense of the hnppy \ relation of a pastor and people, feeling 1 that ho was oue who truly sympathised ] , with all who are afflicted in mind, body, ' or estate. On roy return to Aberystwith, I was f impressed with a desire to see &lr Pugb, whose reputation stood so high. His ' farm is called Pancom-Mawr, signifying " " above the dingle," situated nenr the I summit of a smooth round hill, overi looking a beautiful valley in which is situated the lovely ivy-mantled Church of Llanddeinol. I found Mr Pugh, a apparently about 40 years old, of medium height, rather slight, with a l " pleasant and intelligent face. I told s , him I had heard of his great affliction, \ and of hia romarkablo and almost miraCulouß relief, and that I had corao ,° to learn from his own lips what there was of truth in the reportß. . 0 Mr Pugh remarked that his neighj! bours had taken a kindly and sympathotic interest in, his case for mauy ls years, but of late their interest had 18 boen greatly awakened by a happy S j change in his condition. What you report as having heard abroad, Bilid 50 he, is substantially truo, with one exe.r caption. I never understood that mj 'i caBO was ever given up as hopeless bj a i any Physician. I have been treatec by several Doctorß heroabouts, as gout ?' UB any in WaAeß, but unfortunately n< , prescription oi; theirs ever brought th< us desired effect. ?" Fifteen years ago, he said, I firs ,° becaino cousoioun of a sour and derangei - otomach and lobb of appetite, whioh thi ln Doctors told me was Dyspepsia. Wha food I could hold in my stomach soemoi to do me no good and was often throwi up with painful roaobings. This wa followed after a time with a hoarsenes and a raw soioness of the throat whici !d. tho Doctors called bronchitis, and Iwa bi- treated for that, but with little success ho Then came shortness of broath and ho sonso of suffocation, eapeoially nighti 59. with olammy sweat, and I would hay ho to get o\it of bed and Romotiraes opca^ eir door or -window in wintor weather to Ii ;h- my lungs with the cold'uir. ts' About sis years ago I became bo ba in that I could not sleep in bad, but ha j a to tako my unquiet reat and droam tit, Bleep sittiup; in aa armchair.

All tbiß time I fffli of reduced in ■ strength no that I conli jr perform no bard labour and my spirit! re were consequently much depressed. ly Early in this last spring I bad o stil. al moro severe spasmodic attack, and mj !y family and neighbours beosrae alarmed, if believing that certainly I would nol ts survive, when a neighbour, who had jf some knowledge, or had beard of the it medicine, sent to Aberystwith by the c driver of the Omnibus Post, some sever le miles distant, and fetched a bottle oi fc Mother Sfegel'BCurativo Syrup, o This medicine they administered tc n me according to the directions, when to d their surprise and delight no leas than >t my own, the spasm ceased, I became at is ease, and my stomach w.is calmed, d My bowels wero moved aa by a gentle oathartio, snd I felt a sense of quiet comfort all through such as I had not before realised in many years. I could walk around the house and breaths comfortably in a few' hours after I had taken tho niadicine. I have contirmed ■J to take the medicine daily now for something over two months, ami I can 0 lay down and sleep sweetly tit nights = and have not since had a recurrence of thoso terrible spasms and sweatings I have bee's aa long broken down and 0 reduced in my whole system that I '" have not triod to perform any very hard ? out- door labour, deeming it best to be f prudent lest by over-eiortion I may do , myself injury before my strength is a fully Restored. I feel that my stomach and bowels have been and arc being 9 thoroughly renovated and renewed by !' the medicine.
