EDITOR, — While spending a few days at the pleasant seaside town of Aberystwith, Cardiganshire, Waleß, I heard related what seemed to me either a fabulous story or a marvellous oure. Tho *torr wrb that a poor Bufferer who bad not beon able to iie down iv bed for six long years, given up to di 6by nil the Dootora, hed been speedily cured by some Patent Medicine. It was related with ihe more implicit confidenoa from the cirouna stance, aa wbb raid, that th» Vicar of Llanrystyd was familiar with the fact 3, and oould vouch for the t uth of the report. Having a little curiosity to know how such storiss grdw in trt-velliog, I took the liberty while at the villa^o of Lmnrjstyd to call npon the Vicar, the xiev. T. Evanß, and to enqiire about this wonderful cure. Though a total stranger to him, both he and Mb wife moot graciously entertained me in a half hour's conversation, principally touching the case of Mr. Pugh, ia which they Beemed to take R deep and pympathetic interest, hoving bsen familiar with bis sufferi. gi, and now rejoiced in what eeemoi to them a most remarkab'e oure. The Vioar remarked that he presumed his a^me had 'been connected with the report from hi* having mentioned the case to Mr. Job. a Thomas, a chemist of Liar on. Be stid Mr. Pugh was formerly a resident of their paii h. but was now living in the parish of L'anddeinol. He strongly voachad Mr. Wm, Pagh'a chataoter as a respectable farmer aod worthy of credit. I left the venerable Vioar with a 1 livelier cense of the happy relation of a pastor and people, feeling that he was one who truly sympathised with all who are afflicted ia mind, body, and estate. Un my returato Aberystwith, l waß improEsea with a deaifo to see Mr. Pugb, whose reputation itood so high. His farm is called I'ancom- Mawr, signifying '* above the dingle, 1 ' situated Deer the sartmit of a smooth round hill, overlooking a b> autiful va ley iv which is situated the lovely ivy-mant'o I Church of Llandjeinol , I found Mr. Hugh, apparently about 40 years old, of medium height, rather slight, with a pli-a- ant and intelligent face. I told him I ha: hea d of his great affliction and of his nmarkab'e and almost miraculous r.-lief, and that I had come to learn from hia own iip 3, what there was of truth in the reports. Mr. Pogh remarked that his neighbours had taken a kindly and sympathetic interest in bis case f r oany years, but of lp.te their iateieat had been greatly awakened by a happj change in hia cordition. What you report of having heard abroad, (aid he, is sub&ten.iaUt true, with one exception. I sever understood tbat my case w&s ever given up as hopeless by any Phjsiciaa. I have been treated by s«vera\ Doctors hereatouts, ds good as any in Wai. s but unfortunately no prescription of theirs over brought the desired reliel. Fifteen years ngo, he eaid, I first became cebscioue of a tour and deranged ttomach and Jobb of Eppetito, which the Dcctorß told mo was Dyor. tpsin. V. bat food I coud hol.f in my stomach teemed to do me no good and was ( f ten thrown up with painful retchings. 1 his was followed aiter a time with hoareeness and a raw soreness of the throat which the Doctors calleo broucbitis, and I was treated for that but with little success. Ihen came shortness of breath and a aet-se of suffocation especially nights, with ciammy sweat, awi i would have to go out of bed aod toint times Of.eu a dtor or w.ndow in winter weather to fill my lungs with tho cold air. About six years ago I bscam^ bo bad that I could not sleep in bed. but had to take my unquiti net and sleep fitting ia an a; m chair, fry affliction seemed to be workleg downward into my bowels aa well as upwards into ' my lungs and tl.roafc. Ii tbe violent coughing' spasms whioh grew more frequent, my abdomen would expand and collarse and at times it wculd seem that I should suffocate. AH this time I was reduced in strength to that I could perform i o hard labour and my Bpirits were consequently much depressed. Early in this last spring I had a still more cevcre spasmodic-aUac'*, and my family and neighbours became alarmed, believing that certhinly I would Dot surv-ve, when a nolgol our, who had come knowledge, or had heard of the medicine, sent to Aberjstwith by tho driver ot '.he OmDibus Po3t, s me seven miies dietand, and fetch d a bottle of Mother tieigel'a Curative Syrup. This medicine they administrated to mo nccordiig to tbe diroctions, when to iheir eurpriee and delight no loss than my own, the spism ceased, I became at oaße, snd my stomach caln. cd. My bowelß were moved as by a gentle cathartic, and I felt a senna of quiet comfort all'through such us I had not tefore realized in many years I con'd walk around tbe hcuse end breathe oomfortib y in a fow hours aftec I h&d taken the medicine, I have continued to teko tho medicine daily now for somtthinij over two months, and I can lay down nnd sleep sweetly at nights aud have iiotfcic.ee had a recurrence of those terrf> ble spasms atd swt&tirgs. I have been so loi g broken down a&d reduced in n>y" whole system thatlhave not tried to pirfortn any vfcry hmd out-dow labour, deo^iDg it beat to bo prudent lest i>y over-exertion I may do mjeolf injury before my strength is fully restored I feel that my stomach and bowels have betn and tire being thoroughly renovatod snd renewed by the medicine, In fact I fool like a new man, I have been murk congratulated by my ntighbouri, (specially by the good Vioar of LtanrjEtyd, who with hie eya. pathotio wife have come threo miles to shed tears of joy on my recovery. I bade Mr. Pugh goodbye, happy that oven one at l«ast among thousHndfj had foand a remedy for an {.ggravuting disease. Believing this remarkable case of Dyspeptio Aethma should be known to the public, I beg to tubmit the above foots as they are related to no. KS52h wbap F. T. w.
