GREAT EXCITEMENT IN WALES ABOUT A MARVELLOUS CURE.

t LIVING SIX YKA.RS WIT HOOT GOING TO BKD. Mis. EniTon,— \Vhil« spending a few :Uy.i at tho pleasant soaaido town of „ ■•Vbnryatwith, Cardiganshire, Wains, I "- hoard i\>liiti'd what suetned tome either i fabulous story or a marvello ua cure. Tho stm-y was that a poor sufferer j who hn.il n:it been ablo to lio down in „ bod for six long years, civen up to die n by all the Doctors, had been speedily C jurod by some Patent Medicine. It I was rolatod with the more implioit iS Bonn-Junce from tho cirouinstance, as was said, that tho Yioar of Llnnrystyd

'aB familiar with the taols, ami could ouch for the truth of the report. "~ Having a little curiosity to know how uch stories grow in travellingi I took bo liberty while at tho villago of lilanystyd to call upon the Vicar, the Rev. ?. Evans, and tn enquire about this vondertul care. Though a total stranger o him, both ho and his wife moat [racioußly entertained me ia a halflour's conversation, principally touching :ho case of Mr Pugh, in which thuy seemed to take a deep and sympathetic ialerast, having been familiar with bis sufferings, and now rejoiced in what Beemed to them a most remarkable cure. The Vioar remarked that ha presumed his name had been connected with the report from hia having mentioned the case to Mr John Thorn us, a chemist of Llanon. Ho Baid Mr Pugh was formerly a residont of their parish, but was now living in tho parish of (jlnnddeinol. He strongly vouched Mr Wm. Pugh's character as a respectable farmer and worthy of credit. I left the venerable Vioar with a livelier sense of tho happy relation of a pastor and people, ieeling that he was one who truly sympathised with all who are afflicted in mind, hoiy, or estate. On my return to Aberystwith, I was impressed with a desire to see Mr Puyh, whose reputation stood so high. His farm is called Pancom-Mawr, signifying " above the dingle," situated near tho summit of a smooth round hill, overlooking a beautiful valley in whioh ia situated the lovely ivy-mantled Chnrch of Llanddeinol. I found Mr Pugh, apparently about 40 years old, of medium height, rather slight, with a pleasant and intelligent face. I told him I had heard of his great affliction, and of his remarkable and almost miraculoua relief, and that I had oome to learn from his own lips what there was of truth iv the reports. Mr Pugh remarked that his neighbours had taken a kindly and sympathetic interest in hia case fcr many years, but of late their intoiest hud been greatly awakened by a happy change in his condition. What yod report as having heard abroad, said lie, is substantially true, with one exception. I never understood that my case was ever given up as hopeless by any Physician. I havo been treated by several Doctors hereabouts, aa good as any in Wales, but unfortunately no prescription of theirs ever brought the desired effect. Fifteen years ago, he said, 1 first became cooscious of a Rour and deranged atomach and losa of appetite, which the Doctors told me was Dyspepsia. What food I could hold iv my stomach seemed to do me no good and was often thrown up with painful Teachings. This was followed after a time with a hoaraoness and a raw soreness of the throat which the Doctors called bronchitis, and I was treated for that, but with little success. Then came shortness of breath and a sense of suffocation, especially nights, vrith clammy sweat, and I would have to get out of bed and sometimes open a door or window in winter weather to fill my lauga with the cold air. About six years ago I beep-mo so bad that I could not sleop in bad, but had to take my unquiet rest and dreamy sleep Bitting in an armchair. My affliction seemed to bo working dawnward into my bowels a3 well as upwards into ray lungs and throat. In Iho violent coughing spasms whioh grew more frequent, my abdomen would expand and collapse aud at times it would seem that I should suffocate. AU thia time I >va3 reduced in strength so that I could perform no hard labour and my spirits were consequently much depressed. Early in this last spring I had a still more severe spasmodic attack, and my family and neighbours becamo alarmed, believing that certainly I would not survive, when a neighbour, who had some knowledge, or had heard oE tho medicine, sont to Aburystwith by tho driver of the Omnibus Post, somo soven miles distant, and fotchod a bottlo of Mother Siegel's Curative Syrup. This medicine they adininistovod to me according to tho directions, when to their surprise and delight no Idss than my own, the spaam ceased, I becamo at ease, and my stomach was calmed. My bowels wero moved a 9 by a gentle cathartic, and I i'olt- a sense of quiet comfort all through such a3 I had not before realised in many yoar3. I could walk around tho houso and brenthn comfortably in a few hours after I had taken the medicino. I have continued to take the medicine daily now for something over two mouths, and I c;u lay down and sleep swootly at nightf aud have not since had a recurrence of and bowels have boon and are baing thoroughly renovated and renewed by the medicine. In fact I feel like a now man. I have been much congratulated by my neighbours, especially by tho good Vioar of Tjlanryatyri, who with his sympathetic wife have come three raileß to sued tears of joy on my recovery. I bade Mr Pugh good-byo, happy that oven one at least among thousands hud found a romedy for an aggr-Avaling disease. B?Heving this remarkable case of ' Dyspeptic Asthma should be known to the pnblic, I beg to submit the above facts as thay are related to me. F.r.w.
