A Captain Saved.

(Hamilton, Out., " Spectator.") goH_little commotion wa. occasioned several months ago regarding the experience of a gentleman well-known in this city, and at the time the matter was a. übject of general conversation. In order to ascertain all the fes bearing upon tbe matter, a repre-fen tative of this paper was dispatched yestei .jayto interview the*gentleman mquestion, ffith the following i.'.Milt-: - Captain W. H. Nioholls, for seventeen j ter3 in Her Majesty's service, in India, [* a man well advanced in years, who has evidently seen much of the world. En dowed by nature with a strong constitu tion, he was enabled to endure hardships under which many men would havQ suc cui-ied. Through all privation and ex posure he preserved his constitution un impaired. A number of years ago, how ever, _B began to feel a strange under lining of his life. He noticed that he had le_ energy than formerly, that his appetite ra uncertain and changing, that he was unaccountably weary at certain times and conapondingly energetic at others ; that lis lead pained him, first in front and then if-jbase of the brain, and that his heart ra unusually iitegular in its action. All these tro-bles he attributed to some pass ing disorder, and gave them little atten tion, but "they seemed to increase in violence" cdntiduaUy. To the writer he said;

"I never for a moment thought these things amounted to anything serious,and I give them little, if any, thought; but I felt myself growing weaker all tbe whiles and could ij no way account for it." "Didyou take no steps co check these symptoms f' "Very little, if any. I thought they WW only temporary in their nature and wonld soon pass away. But they did not SsJiway,aiid kept increasing. Finally,one y, after more than a year had passed, I noticed that my feet and ankles were ■Mg-ffli-gto swell and that my face under the ey& appeared puffy. This indication. IncT-ased until my body began to fill with wte, and finally swelled to enormous proportions. 1 waa afflicted with acute rheumatic pains, and was fearful at times wit would affect my heart. I consulted JJW.Qf w most prominent physicians, and M rove me no hope of ever recovering. He aid that I might live several months, but »iy condition was such that neither myself jWaay of my family had the slightest hope *' my recovery. In this condition a nomber of months passed by, during which toe I had to sit constantly in an easy chair, not bang able to lie down, lest I should JJe to death. The slight pains I had at tet experienced increased to most terrible ponies. My thirst was in tense, and a good portion of the time I was wholly uncon ?"_ hen I did recover my senses I jeered so severely that my cries could be Fttra for nearly a mile. No one can we any idea of the agony I endured. I was wbictoeat or even swallow fluids. My "■rength entirely deserted me.and I was so .exhausted that I prayed day and night for f Thod.ncto»cor:Wn-t relieve me, ™1 1 *i* left in a condition to die.and m m of Bright'- disease of the kidneys ■its most, terrible form.
