GRI3AT SXCITEMENI IN WALSS . douc a toarveiioua c< :e. Livinf Six. Yer vr Without Going To Bed. ■ MB. EDITOB,— WhiIe spending a fow days at the pleasant seaside town of Aterystwith, Cardiganshire, Waleß, I heard related what seemed to me either a fabulous story or a raarvelloi'9 oure. The rtory was thai a poor sufferer who had not b6 v n able to He down in bed for six long years, %iven up to die by all the Dootors, had been speedily cured by some Patent Medioiae. It wp.s rolatod with the more implicit confidence from the circumstance, as was euid, that the Vioar of Llanrystyd w»a familtftr with the facts, and could vouch for the truth of tho report Having a little curiosity to know how such stories grow in (ravelling, I took the liberty while at the village of Llanrystyd to call upon the Vicar the £cv. T, Evans, and to enquire about this wonderful cure. Though a total stranger to him, both he and his wife most rfraoioußly entertained me in a half hour's conversation, principally touching the case of 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 moßt remarkable oure. I'he Vioar remarked that he presumed his name had been conneoted with the report from, his having mentioned the case to Mr. John Thomas, a ohemifit of Llanon. He siid Mr. Pugh was formerly a resident of their parieh, but was now living in the parish of Llanddeinol. - . He strongly vouched Mr. Wm. Pugh's character as a respectable farmer and worvhy of credit. I left the venerable Vicar with a livelier cense of the happy relation of a pastor and people, feeling that he was one who truly sympathised with all who are affliotedin mind, body, and estate. On my return to Aberystwith, I was impressed with a desire to see Mr. Pugh, whoso reputation stood so high. His farm is oallud i anconvMawr, signifying '"above the dingle," situated near the sactmit of a Bmooth round hill, overlooking a beautiful valley in whioh is situated the lovely ivy-mantle 1 Church of Llanddeinol I found Mr. Pugh, apparently j about 40 years old, of medium height rather slight, with a pleasant and intelligent faoe. I told him I had heatd of his great affliction and of his remarkable and almost miraculous .relief, and that I had come to learn from hia own lips, what there was of ;truth in the reports. Mr. Pogh remarked that his neighbours had taken a kindly and sympathetic interest in bis case for msny years, bnt of late their interest had been greatly awakened by a happy change in hia condition. What you report of having heard abroad, said he, is subatfutially true, with one exception. I sever understood that my cose was ever given up. aa hopeless by any Physician. I have been treated by several Dootors hereabouts, as good as any in Wales but unfoivunately no prescription of theirs ever brought t-.e desired relic?.' Fifteen years ago, he said, I first became oonsoious of n eour and de angod stomaoh ard loss of appetite, waic i lue Dootors told me wm Df pcepuia. W'-v food I could hold in my stomach seemed 10 cio me no good and was often ih,own cp w h gainful retchings, This was followed after ;; time with hoarseness and a raw soreness of the throat whioh the Dootors called bronchitis, and I was treated for that but with tittle success. Then came shortness of breath and a B6nseof suffocation, especially nights, with clammy sweat, mtuil would havo to go out of be ; and sometimes open a door or window . n winter weather to fill my lungs with the oold air. About six years ago I became so bad that I could not sleep in bed. bnt had to take my unquiet rest and dreamy sleep Bitting in »b armchair, i&y affliction seemed to be working downward into my bowels as well as upwards into my lungs and throat, Ia the violent coughing spasms whioh grew more frequent, my abdomen would expand and collapse and at times it would seem that I should suffocate. All this time I was reduced in strength bo 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 became alarmed, believing that certainly I would rot survive, when a neighbour, who had some knowledge, or had heard' of the medicine, sent to Aberystwith by tho driver otihe Omnibus Post, some seven miles distand, and fetohtda bottle of Mother Seigel'a Curative Syrup. This medicine they administrated to me according to tbe directions, when to their surprise and delight no lobs than my own, the Bposm ceased, I became at ease, and my stomaoh calmed, My bowels were moved as by a gentle cathartio, and I felt a Bonsa of quiet comfort all through suoh as 1 had not before realized in many years I oonid walk around tbe house andbrcfatbe comfortably in a few hours after I had taken the medicine. I have continued to take the medioiue daily now for something over two months, and I oan lay down and sleep sweetly at nights and have not since had areourrenceof those terrible spasms and sweatirgs. I have been bo long broken down and reduced in my whole system that I have not tried to perform any very hard out-door labour, deeming it best to be prudent lest by over-exeition I may do myself injury before my strength is fully restored . I feel that my stomaoh and bowels have beon and are being thoroughly renovated and renewed by the medicine, In fact i feel litce a new man. I have been much congratulated by my neighbours, especially by the good Viorr of Llanryßtyd, who with his sympathetic wife have come three miles to Bhed tears of joy on my recovery, I bade Mr. Pugh goodbye, happy that even one at least among thousands had foaad a remedy for an aggravating disease, Bedoving this remarkable case of Dyspeptio Asthma should be known to the public I beg to submit the above foots au they are related to me. a 382 h w bsp F.
