EDITOR,— WhiIe- spending a few days at the pleasant seaside tovra of Aberystwith, Cardiganshire, Wales, I .heard related what seemed to me either a fabulous story or a marvellous cure. The t tory was that a poor sufferer; who had not been able to lie down in bed for six long years, given ap to die by all the Dootors, had betn speedily cured by some Patent Medicine. It was related with the more implicit confidence from the oiroumstanos, as was raid, that the Vicar of Llanryatyd w»s familiar with the fact 3, and coald vouch for the tenth of the report. B aving a littln curiosity to know how such stories grow in travelling, I took tha liberty while at the village of Liaory atyd to call upon tbe Vicar, the ilev. T. Evans, and to enquire atx ut this wonderful cure, Ihoogh » total BtraDi er to hiiii, both he and bis wi'e moat graciously entertained me in a half hoor'B conversation, principal? tonohing the ca;eof Mr. Pugh, in which they seemed to take a deep and sympathetic interest, having been familiar with bis sufferings, and now rejoiced in what seemed to them a most remarkable cure. Ibe Vioar remarked that he presumed his a- me bad beon connected with the report from hU baviDg mentioned the case to Mr. Job. a lhomas, a chemitt of Llacon. He s»id Mr. Pugh was formerly a resident of their paii h. but was now living in the parish of Llanddeinol. be strongly vouched Yr. Win. Pugh 'a character as a respeotable farmer aod worihy of credi*. I left the venerable Vicar with a livelier rente of he happy relation of a pastor and people, fceliDg that he was one who truly sympathised with all who are tfflictedin min--, body, aud estate. On my return to Aberjefc'ith, I was improve J with a desire to ccc Mr. Pugb, wboßs rrputat'on stood so high. His farm is called • aucom-M»wr, signifying ''above thsdiogle," situated tear thi sasimit of a smooth round hill, overlooking a brant if al valley in which is situated the lovely ivy- mantle J Ohu-ch of Llanddeinol. I found Mr. Pugh, apparently about 40 years old, of medium heig t. rather slight, with a pl< a- ant and intelligent face. I told him I had bad of his great affliction and of his r- markab c and almost miracu'ous i? lief, and tbat I bad come to learn from h s own lips, what thsre was of truth in the reports. Mr. Pogh remarked that his neighbours had taken a kindly acd B) mpathetic interest in ) is osse f r many years, bnt of late their interest had been greatly awakened by a happj change in his condition. What you report of having heard abroad, raid ho, is substsn iall" true, with one exception. I never understood tbat my c jse was ever given up as hopeless by any Physician. I have been treated by s«vera<* Doctors hereabouts, es tood as any in Wai a but unfortunately no prescription of t'hoirs ever brought the desired relief. Fifteen years ago, ha said, I first beowne cjtsciouscf a tour and deranged rtoaaoh aod Joss of Bp;et:te, which the Doctors told mo Tia»l>)Bi«pgit». V. hit food I cou d holi in my stomach cetmed to do me no good and was often thrown up with painful retchings, i his was followed aiter a time with ho»rtenets and a raw strenem of the throat which the Dootors callei broncbitis, and I was t: eated for tbat but with little succoas. Ihen came shortness tf breaih and a aeLSuof suffocation especially nights, with clammy sweat, and I would have to go out of bed aid torn times O(en a dcor or window In winter weatnor to fill my lungs with the cold air. About six years ago I became so bad ihatl could not s'eep'in bed. but had to take my unquut rtßtand flretmy sleep fitting in an aTuchjir. *<y affliction poemedtofco worki: g downward int-j my bowelß aa wtll aa upwards into my lungd aud tUroat 111 1 tbe violant couching spasoas whioh grew more frequent, my abdomen would expind and collar. Be and at timeß it w^uld seem that I should suffocate. All this time I was reduced in strength fo that I cou'.d perform no bard labour and my spirits were consequently much depressed. Early in this last spring I had a still more get ere spnamodic-attac s and my family and neighbours be.ame alarmed, belteviag ihat certainly I would cot eurr vo, when » coightour, who had Borne knew.'edge, or had beard of th'emed'cine,Eent to Aberjstwith by tho driver ol >he Omnibus Podt, b m > seven mi es distand, and feu hd a bottle of Mother eige"fl Curative t-yrup.
