THE VICTORIA RACING CLUB'S AUTUMN MEETING.

(pjb punas A8SO01AXIOK.)

Mblbournb, March 4. His Excellency the Governor and party were ■Rain present, and the attendance of the general public was quite equal to, that of Satur day. Universal satisfaction was expressed at ihe result of the Maiden Stakes, Mr G. G. Stead's colt Medallion proving himself to be one of the very best 2 year olds of the season. The pace was a cracker from the start, but the son of Noidenfeldt—-Locket—wore his oppo nents down, and at the fioish secured a half length victory in excellent time. There was *no sterling opposition to Titan for the Sires Produce Stakes, odds of 3 to I being laid on him, and the issue was never in doubt. The Hurdle Race resulted in the preatest finish ever seen on the' Flemington course, nothing but consummate generalship on the part ofi Corrigan securing the victory. Ulysses ran a great horse, but the result showed that Inglis { male too much uss of him during the race. Had he laid alongside the favorite the chances are that the positions would have been re versed. Hales as near as a toucher threw away the Cup.' Harris bringing Melos up with a wonderful rush.and people on the grand stand were in doubt about the result untii Mr Dakin gave the official decision. The race was run in the fastest time'on record, Dreadnought covering the last mile and a half in 2mia 38sec. Mr S. Miller provided a surprise in the Junior Stakes, the time for which was remarkably good. " *.'

STARTLING EVENT IN A VILLAGE.

To the Editor of " Saturday Night." Bir. raingham, I recently came into possession of certain facts of so remarkable a nature, that I am sure you will be glad to assist in making them public. The following letters were shown to me, and I at once begged permission to copy them for the Press. Ihey come from a highly responsible source, and may be re ceived without question. MESSAGE from George Jamks Gost. ling, L.D.S., 8.C.5.1., Ph.CL, Licentiate in Pharmacy and Dental Surgeon. Stowmarket, July iB, 1889,

To Mr White, ' The enclosed remarkable cure should, I think, be printed and circulated in Suffolk. The statement was entirely vol#ataty, and is genuine in fact and detail. G. J. G. •'To the Proprietors of Mother Seigel's Syrup.

" Gentlemkn,—The following remarkabl cure was related to me by the husband. Mary Ann Spink, of Finburough, Suffolk, was for over twenty years afflicted with rheumatism and neuralgia, and although comparatively a young woman at the time she was attacked (she is now fifty), she was compelled, in con* sequence, to walk with two sticks, and even then with difficulty and pain. About a year and a half ago she was advised to try Mother Seigel's Syrup, and after taking three bottles and two boxes of Seigel's operating Pills, the use of her limbs was restored, and she is now able to walk three miles to Stowmarket with ease, frequently doing the distance in thres quarters of an hour. Any sufferer who d mbts this story can fully ascertain its truthfulness by paying a visit to the village and enquiring of the villagers, who will certify to the facts. " Appended is the husband's signature to the statement •• (R. Spink.) " G. S. GOSTLING, " Ipswich Street, " Stowmark&t." This is certainly a a very pitiable case, aod the happy cure wrought hy simpte but powerful remedy, must move the sympat' y of all hearts in a common pleasure. This poor woman had beea a cr'pple for twenfy of her best years; years in which she should have had such comfort and-enjoyment as H re has to give. But, on the contrary, she was a miser able burden to herself and a sourre of care to her friends. Now, at an age when the rest of us are growiDg feeble, she, in -a manner, renews her youth and almost begins a new existence. What a blessing and what a wonder t is 1 No one who knows her, or who reads her story, but wiil be thankful that the gqpd Lord l.as enabled men to discover a remedy capable of bringing about a cure that reminds us—we speak it reverently—of the age of miracles. It should be explained that the most remark able cure is due to the fact that rheumatism is a disease or the blood' Indigestion, constipa tion, and dyspepsia cause the po'son from the partially digested focd to enter the circulation, and the blood deposit it in the joints and muscles. This is rheumatism. Seigel's Syrup corrects the digestion, and so stops the further formation and deposit of the poison. It then emoves fro-n the system the poison already there. It is not a cure-all. It does its wonderful work entirely by its mysterious action upon the digestive organs. But when were member that nine-tenths of our ailments arise in those organs, we can understand why Seigel's Syrup cures so many diseases that appear to be so different in their nature.
