THE DEAD I Aa la fliown by tho following interesting TALE OF THE PACIFIC I A TALE OF THE PACIFIC. Win, Oppcrman, Visa., a wealthy island trader was for Pome month* lyintf ill at Happemamma an inland of the Kingsmill Orou". in tho Pacific He liti'l boon seized wUh rh«umat'c fovor, which was followed by complicated disorders of a ter rib'y sovero nature, assuming tho form of a specie-- of palsy never before known. Tho suf ferer's I'inbs swelled, tho legs lost all sensibility to nan ; the foot could bo wrenched round or thepkin i>ierco'l with alanco without inflicting tho slightesl; suffering. Tho nick man was evi dently uncoiseious of his having legs, and his brain wa» Borinualy all'^ted as if with lunacy. In th's deplorable atito ho was kindly {trough from tin' iH'unds to Auckland by Mr H. Hender son in tho schooner Coronet. Captain Moeller and, be'ng a German, ho was received by the Gorman t'onMil, <l. Yon fli-r Hoyde, Kpq , nnd placed in the District Hospital, whore ho re ceived treatiuen' for three weeks with no indica tion of Improvement, hi* caso being pronounced by one and all a most hooeless one. Tho onptaln or tho C'orono*, knowing that extraordinary cures had been ejected by the use of liitchcna' Celebrated Blood' Restorer requested tho proprietor of thn Blond Restorer to lake tho caso 'n hand, and a contraot was entered into of " No cure, no pay." Mr Hltchens proceeded to tho Hospital, examined tho invalid and found him in un apparently dying ftato with scarcoly a spark oil lifo loft. Mr Hitehens ordered tho suffering man to bo removed to his (\lr H.'h) private residence, where his wants could personally bo attended to b~ Mr Hitchena Thn latter administered the medicine (the Blood Restorer) and used the ointment freoly. Mean while clergymen called, pronouncing the case beyond tho powor of man to effect a euro. How ever, after t.ix weeks the eiFect of the medicine became wonderfully apparent. Tho Wood Restoier hid acted steadily bnt Bnrely on the blood ; the deadly impurities were gradually eliminated from the system until the stnamof lilo flowed unchecked in its natural channels over the entire man. Tho brain be camo clear and activo, and the limbs once again rejoiced in natural circulation, thopaticntrising to his feet cured of disseiso* which had bullied the Bkill of leading physicians, a living proof of the wonderful healing powers of Hitchens Colobrated Blood Restorer. TfiSTIMONIAL.I Auckland, N. 2. To H. A. H. Hitchons. Esq. Before leaving Auckland en my return voyage to tho Islands, I have to perform the pleasing duty of acknowledging tho surprising cure I havo received at your hands. Caming to Auckland as I d.i.l a dying man, beiiikr palsied and generally unconscious, and hearing from others that no hope of recovery Wt s held out by medical men, 1 look upon you now aa tho preserver of my iife. I am convinced that to you ■ medicine alone is duo tho credit for my now being a living man. I bog to thank you most sincerely for the kind ness you have spowh me whilo staying in your house, and in conclusion would earnestly rc oomtnend sick people to use your Blood Keßtorer, as it is tho most extraordinary purifier of the blood I ever heard of, or met With in my travels.

Hamilton, Waikato, March, 1879. Medical Ti<STiMON\ r. Hamilton, A pril 15,1S79.—fcir, I have carefnlly looked over some specimens of your Wool pre pared for Mattress making, and find it not only excellent in quality but free from any disasrt fa able smell or «rease. The Wool is so carefully •' carded' that no " felting" can take pay c, thus ensuring that beautiful softness nnd elasticity so essential to a bed. For some years 1 have ased Wool Mattresses in my own house prepared by mywlf, anc I greatly prefer them to any Hher kind ; but you fur excel me in the softness and elastic character of your " carded " wools.— I am sir, yours obediently, E. Wadi ington, M.D.— To Mr Albert Potter, Hamilton KasL Auckland, April 23,1379.— I certify that I havo carefully examined some specimens of " carded" Wool, prepared by Mr Potter of Wnikato. They are beautifully clean, free from any dis agreeable smell; and in my opinion are veiy suitable for Mattresses, would be very clastic, warm and comfortable.—Thos. B. Ken dkkoink M.K.C.S., L. & K. I have carefully examined the two samples of Wool which you gave me, and find them exces sively oleiui, free from smell, and admirably fitted for the manufacture of Mattresses Bnd Cushions, one of which I also inspected. I con sider a well-made Wool Mattress more healthy and comfortable than a feather bed: and. judg ing from the samples I saw in your possession, I can most conscientiously recommend the materials and the work.—Chap.

Mosler, profcs=or at; the University of Greifswald, Germany, vis.: "Having experienced the advantnees derived from inha'atious of the Kxtiuct Eucvtattib Folii in csaei of eohinococccn of tho lungs with bronchial affections, I made up my mind to tr the same remedy is, cases of Diphthkhia. D a pupi oi mino, has since, in his disfcra tion, repoittd the particulars of tho cases treated, and I may be allowed brisfly to refer to one of the rases enumerated therein. Ida X., of Papewalk, twenty years tf age, had on the 19th February, 1879, a fit of chilling fever with violent pains in her throat. Sho calli upon a medical practitioner, who, recognizing at once the case to be one of diphtheritic, nmue her enter my klinik, whews 1 had to separata her from the other patients. The patient, we± developed for her ago, was complaining of paina in her throat, which grew worse when she tn deavoured to swallow, apeak, or move the neck. The suhnjaxillar and submental glands were much swollen, and the fever was of a remitting nature. The condition of tho patient was on tho 220 dof February: Waimth=3o.i C, puke =9G respiration=2o. Prescription: Extract euc. c. foliis to be Inhaled for twenty minntes overy hour. The following day the -natiei.t threw ouc small particles of exsudat. The local appear ances in the pharynx grew worse, and tho bik1 ata were more extended ovor tho mucous tnejn "'ane. That increase of symptoms caused me to augment the dose to one tea spoonful of extract ouc. used for inhala tion ; also the inhalations were continued, during the night. On the 27ih patient got better and the fever had subsided. On examining tlo pharynx it was easily to bo noticed that the pro cess of diphtherit gave way, and on the 11th of March tho patiei was restored to health » r J discharged.
