[fkb pbbss association.] Not Bailed Out. Auckland, To-day. Swallow has been unable to get bail. Ecclesiastical-^ Bishop Luck writes from England ihat he intends to-bring out with him four Benedictine Fathers and perhaps two or three of the Secular Clergy. Supreme Court. Nelson, To day. At the Supreme Court yesterday the trial of J •'>. MoLoaiy, charged with arson, bated all day. At 10.6 last even ing, after retiring for some hours, the jury returned a verdict of “JJot guilty,” and the prisoner was discharged. Fires. Timabu, To-day. A. fire occurred last night at half-past eleven, by which the stables of Messrs Peacock and Geaney, of the Zedandia hatchery, were destroyed with a quantity of oats, etc. The horses, five in number, were saved through the presence of mind of a passer-by, who, perceiving the fire, at once )ed the animals out. The loss is estimated at LIOO, uninsured. —At 10.20 this morning a fire was discovered in the loft of the Clarendon Hotel, a very old hostelry, but it was soon extinguished the damage was found to be trifling. Holloways Pilts.—Servous Debility. No part of the human machine requires more watching than the nervous system—upon it hangs health and life itself. These pills are the best regulators and strengthened of the nerves, and the safest general purifiers. Nau sea* headache, giddiness, numbness, and men tal apathy yield to them. They dispatch in a summary manner those distressing dyspeptic symptoms, stomachic pains, fulness at the pit •f the stomach, abdominal distension, and over come both capricious appetites and confined bowels—the commonly accompanying signs of ; defective or deranged nervous power. Hollo way’s Pills are particularly recommended to . persons of studious and sedentary habits, who gradually sink into a nervous and debilitated c State, unless some such restorative be occa t sionally takes. —[Advt,] What is this disease that is COMING UPON US ? i

TAf a thief at night it steals in upon us un awares. Many persons have pains about the chest and sides, and sometimes in the back. They feel dull and sleepy; the mouth has a bad taste,' especially in the morning. A sort of sticky slime collects about the teeth. The appetite is poor. There is a feeling like a heavy load on the stomach; sometimes a faint all-gone sensation at the pit of the stomach which food docs not satisfy. The eyes are KlfAen, the hands and feet b. come cold and fed! clammy. After a while a cough sets in— at £rst dry, but after a few months is attended With a greenish colored. expectoration. The afflicted? qne feels tired a’l the while, and sleep does not seem to afford any rest. After a time he becomes nervous, irritable, and gloomy, and has evil fore! odings. There is a giddiness, a sort of whirling sensation in the head when tiring up suddenly. The bowels becon e cos tive; the skin is dry and hot at times; the bibod becomes thick and stagnant; the whites of'the eyes become tinged with yellow, the urine is scanty and high-colored, depositing a 3 sediment after standing. There is frequently a spitting up of the food, sometimes with a sour taste, and sometimes with a sweetish taste; this is f equently attended with palpita tion of the heart; the vision becomes impaired with spots before the eyes; there is a feeling of great prostration and weakness. All of these symptoms are in turn present. It is thought that nearly one-third of our popu’ation has this disease in some of its varied forms. It has been found that medical men have mistaken the nature of this disease. Some have treated If for a (liver complaint, others for kidney disease, etc., eta, ! but none of the various kinds of treatment have been attended with success, because the remedy should be such as to act harmoniously upon each one of these organs, and upon the stomach as well; for in Dyspepsia (for this is really what the disease is) all of these organs partake of this disease and requite a remedy that will act upon all at the same tima • Seigel’s Curative Syrup acts like a charm in this class of complaints, giving almost immediate relief. The following letters frpm chemists of standing in the community where they live showjj in what estimation the article is held. Wholesale agents, Kempthorne, Prosser and Co.’s New Zealand Drug Co. (limited), Dunedin, Christchurch, Wellington, and Auckland. John Archer, Harthill, near Sheffield;—! can confidently recommend it to all who m - y be suffering from liver or stomach complaints, having the testimony of my customers, who hove derived great benefit from the Syrup and Pills. The sale is increasing wonderfully. Geo. A. Webb, 141, York Street, Belfast;— 1 have sold a large quantity, and the parties have testified to its (being what you represent

J. S. Metcalfe, 55, Highga'e, have [always great pleasure in recommending the Curative Svrup, for I have never known a case in which it has not relieved or cured, and I have sold many grosses. Robt, G. Gould, 27, High Sheet, Andover: , J have always taken a great interest in your medicines, and I have recommended them, as I.have found numerous cases of cure from their US Roht Laine, Melksham ;—I can well re commend the Curative Syrup from having proved its efficacy for indigestion myself. Friockheim, Arbroath, Forfarshire, Sept. 23, 1882. Dear Sir,—Last year! sent you a letter re commending Mother- Seigel’s Syrup. I have very much pleasure in still bearing testimony to the very satisfactory results of the famed Syrup and Pills. Most patent medicines die out with me-, but Mother Seigel has had [a steady sale ever since I commenced, and is still in as great demand fas when I first began to sell the medicine. The cures which hive com under my notice are chiefly those of liver com plaint arid general debility. A certain minister in my ne : ghborhood says it is the only thing which has here filed him and restored him to his normal condition of health after being Unable to preach for a con siderable length of time. I could mention also a great many other cases, but space would not allow. A near friend of mine, who is very much addicted to costiveness, or costipation, finds that Mother Seigel’s Pills are the only pills which suit h ! s complaint. All other pills cause a reaction which is very annoying. Mother's Seigel’s Pills do not leave a bad after effect I have much pleasure in commending again to suffering humanity Mother Seigel’s medicines, which are no sham. If this letter is of any service ycu can publish it. . Yours very truly, (Signed) "William S. Glass, Chemist.

A. J, White, Esq. Thomas Chapman. West Auckland:—l find that the trade steadily increases. I sell more of your medicines than any other kind. N. Dan oil, Clun, Salop:—All who buy it are pleased, ahd recommend it.
