GREAT EXCITBMENI IN WALES ."doug a taarveiioua^etire. Living Six. Years "Without Uoing To Bed. MB. EDITOR,— WhiIe spending a few days at tho pleasant seaside town of Aboryßtwith, Cardiganshire, Wales, I heard related what seemed to me either a fabulous story or a marvellous cure. The i=tcry waa that a poor sufferer who had not been able to lie down in bed for six long years, ftivon up to die by all the Dootors, had been speedily cured by some Patent Medicine. It was related with the more implicit confidence from the circumstance, as was Raid, that the Vicar of Llanryslyd wbs familiar with the fact?, and could vouch for the truth of the report. Having a little curiosity to know bowsueh stories grow in -travelling, I took tho liberty while at the village of Llanrvstydto call upon the Vioar the itov. T. Svans, and to enqairo about this wonderful cure, Thoagt a total str&Dterto him, both he and his wife most graciously entertained me in a half hour's conversation, principally touching the case of Mr. Pugh, in whioh they seemed to take a deep and sympathetic interest, having been familiar with his sufferings, and now rejoiced in what seemed to them a most remarkable oure. The "Vioar remarked that he presumed his name had been conneoted with the report from his having mentioned the case to Mr. John Thomas, a chemist of Llanon. He said Mr. Pugh was formerly a resident of their parish, but was now living in. the parish of Llanddeinol. Be strongly vouched Bfr. Wm, Pngh's character as a respectable farmer and wonhy of credit. I left the venerable Vicar with & livelier eeuse of the happy relation of a pastor and people, f eejiog that he was ono who truly sympathised with all who are afflicted in mind, body, and estate. On my return to Aberjstwith, I was impressed with a desire to see Mr. Pugh, whose reputation stood so high. His farm is callad i anoom-Mawr, signifying '* above the dingle," situated near tho simmit of a smooth round hill, overlooking a beautiful valley in which iB situated the lovely ivy-mantle J. Church of Llanddeinol. I found Mr. Pugh, apparently about 40 years old, of medium heigct. rather slight, with a pleasant and intelligent faoe. I told him I had heard of his great affliction and of his remarkable and almost miraculous relief, and that I had come to learn from his own lips, what there was of ptruth in the reports. Mr. Pugh remarked that his neighbours had taken a kindly and sympathetic interest in bis case for many years, bnt of l&te their interest had been greatly awakened by a happj ohange in his condition. What you report of having heard abroad, said he, is Bubstantiallv truo, with one exception, I never understood that my case was ever given up as hopeless by any Physician, I have been treated by several Dootors hereabouts, as good aB any in Wales but unfortunately no prescription of theirs ever brought the desired relief. Fifteen years ago, he said, I first. beoame conscious of a sour and deranged stomaoh and loss of sitpetite, which the Doctors told me waa Dyspepsia. What food I could hold in my stomach seemed to do me no good and was often thrown up with painful retchings; This was followed after a time with hoarseness and a raw soreness of the throat whioh the Dootors called bronchitis, and I was treated for that but with little success. Then came shortness of breath and a B6nsoof suffocation, especially nights, with clammy sweat, au£ I would have to go out of bed and sometimes* open a dcor or window in winter weather to nil my lungs with the cold air. About six years ago I becama so bad that I could not sleep in bed. but had to take my unquiet rest and dreamy sleep sitting in an armohhir. My affliction seemed to be worklug downward into my bowels as well as upwards into my lungs and throat, ;In the violent coughing spasms whioh grew more frequent, my abdomen would expand and collapse and at times it would seem that I shonld 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 beoame alarmed, believiug that certainly I would not survive, when a neighbour, who had some knowledge, or had heard of the medicine, sont to Aberystwith by tho driver ot ihe Omnibus Post, some seven miles distand, and fetched a bottle of Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup. This medicine they administrated to me according to the directions, when to their butprise and delight no less than my own, the spasm ceased, I became &t ease, and my stomach calmed. My bowels were moved as by a gentle cathartic, aud I felt a 'senao of quiet comfort all through such as I had not before realized in many years. I oonld walk around the houße and breaths comfortably in a few hours after I had taken the medicine. I have continued to take tho medicine daily now for something over two months, and I oan lay down and sleep sweetly at nights and have notsiuce had a recurrence of those terrible spasms and sweatirgs. I have been so long broken down and reduced in my whole system that I have not tried to perform any very hard out-door labour, deeming id best to be prudent lest by over-exe. tion I may do mjself injury before my strength is fully restored , I feel that my stomaoh and bowels have been and are being thoroughly renovated and renewed by the medicine. In fact j feel like a new man, I have been much congratulated by my neighbours, especially by the good Vioar of Lijvarystyd, who with his Byriapathetio wife have come tbreo miles to shed 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.
