STARTLING EVENT IN A VILLAGE.

To the Editor of Saturday bight, Birmingham. I recently came into possession of certain facts of so remarkable a nature, that I am suro you will be glad to assist m making them public. The following letters were shown to mo, and 1 at once begged permission to copy them for tho Press. Tbey come from a highly responsible source and may be received without question. MESSAGE Most George James Gostling, L.D.8., R.C.5.1., Ph. 0.1., Licentiate m Pharmacy and Dental Surgeon. Stowmarket, July 18th, 18S9. To Me Whiib, The enclosed remarkable euro should, I think, be printed and circulated m Suffolk. The statement was entirely vo'untary, and is genuine m fact and detail. G. J. G. "To,, the Proprietors of Mother Seigel's Syrup. " Gkntlbmbn, — The following remarkable Cure was related to me by the husband Mary Ann Spink, of Finborougb, Suffolk, was for over twenty years afflicted with rheumatism and neuralgia, and although comparatively a young woman at the time »he was nttacked (she is now fifty), she was compelled, m consequence, to walk with two sticks, and even then with difficulty and pain. About year and a half ago oho was advised to try Mother Seigel'B Syrup, and after taking three bottles and two boxes of Seigels' Operating Pills, the tue of her limbs were restored, and bub is now able to walk three miles 'to -towmarket with ease, frequently doing the distance m three-quartern of an hour. Any sufferer who doubts this story can fully ascertain its truthfulness by paying a visit to the village and enquiring of tbey villagers, who will certify to the facts. " Appended is the husband's signaturo to the statement. (•■ B. Spink.) " G. J. GOSTUNG, " Ipswich Street, " Stowmarket." This is certainly a very pitiable case, acd the happy cure wrought by this simplo but powerful remedy, must move the sympathy of all hearts m a common pleasure. Ibis poor woman had been a cripple for twenty of her best yearß s years m which she should have had such comfort and enjoyment as life has to give. But, on tho contrary, she was a miserable burden to herself and a source of care to her friends. Now, at an age when the reßt of ub are growing feeble, she, m a manner, renews her youth and almost begins a new existence. What a blessing and wbat a wonder it is 1 No one who knows her, or who reads her story, but will be thankful that the good Lord has enabled men to discover a romedy capablo of bringing about a cure that reminds vs — we Bpeak it reverently — of the age of miracles. It should be explained that this most remarkablo cure is due to the fact that rheumatism is a disease of the blood. Indigestion, constipation, and dyspepsia cause the poison from the partially digested food to enter the circulation, and the blood deposits it m the joints and muscles. This is rheumatism. Soigel's Syrup corrects the digestion, md so stops tho further formation and deposit of the poison. It then removes from the sytteui the poison already there. It ia not a cure-ail, it does its wonderful work g tirely by its mysterious action upon tho digestive organs. Ect when we remember that nine-tenths of our ailments arise m those organs, wo oan understand why Soigel's Syrup cures so many diseases that appoar to be so different m their nature. In other words rheumatism and neuralgia aro but symptoms of indigestion, constipation, and dyspepsia.

Signor Fav ia ia to be sent by the Italian Government to tho United States to raise, if possible, a largo sum of money on loans guaranteed by fifteen Italian municipalities. Throe children iv the Sheffield Workhouie were none to death a few days ago by the medical officer, who careloatly wroto a prescription for twenty grains of Dover's powder m ten packets instead of for then grains m twenty pacxets. Trul A writes to the chairman of tho Eastern Telegraph Company as follows i — " My dour Sir John Ponder — I really thluk that m these days of sweating committees, labour conferences, and anti-oapitaliats demonstrations, you ought to do something for your olerka. A casual rcforenco tho other day to tho hardships of the Eastern telegraph servico has brought mo a dozen letters from those gontlomen. They tall mo that they are Bent out at salarios barely sufficient to support existence m places whero the cost of living is abnormally high ; that their shabby pay is further diminished by 'an iniquitous system of fines' (the words aro not mine) \ that thoy got nothing extra for overtime and Sunday work, tho latter of which, amounts to at least eight hours every other Sunday, and sometimes more ; and that tboy engage thmnselvos ot utarting for flvo ye»r», during which period tiiay get no holiday of any kind. I trust that you will listen to ray advico and look into this matter, for I rnnnot think Dint your shurnholdors will thank you for putting thorn m tho position of partners m a white-slavory concern,"
