Medical ! MORE TESTIMONY i NOT A SURPRISING OURE TO THOSE WHO KNOW WHAT KITCHENS' T> L O O D T)E BTOBEE , HAS DONE. IN the Auckland Evening Stab of the 27th April last appeared the following local, which explains itself:— " The brig Bella Mary, from Melbourne in ballast, bound for Kaipara, put into harbour yesterday morning to obtain medical aid for Captain Owen, master of the vessel, who haß been very unwell during the latter part of the voyage. Captain Owen, who haß followed the seafaring profession for many years, and had never uutil leaving Melbourne on April 10th last, Buffered from illness of any severe nature, was suddenly seized on that date with violent pains in the back. Since then he has been swung up in a haqunock in the cabin quite helpless. The vessel was off Kaipara at noon on Thursday last, but the weather being thick and foggy, it was deemed advisable to come on to Auckland for medical assistance. The barque arrived early yesterday morning, and Dr. Moore having been sent for, visited Captain Owen, and gave instructions to the mate of the vessel regarding.treatment. The invalids is euffering^from a species of rheumatism of a severe nature, and the doctor con* aiders it advisable to effecta partial recovery before attempting the removal of his patient to more suitable quarters on Bhore. Captain Owen is well known in Auckland, and many residents will be sorry to learn of his affliction." Referring to above, Captain Owen has this day (Ist December) stated: " After beiDg treated for about five weeks by two medical men successively, with very little alteration in my condition, except that the pain in my hands and back was made somewhat easier through the affect of the galvanic battery, I felt a gradual Binking that told me the dread end was not far off, and one of my visiting friends suggested that I Bhould try what Hitchens* Blood Restorer would do, as it was being so talked about far and wide. Without much faith in itj I consented to try it, but did not notice any good effect until I hid taken about the third or fourth bottle, when my appetite decidedly quickened, and I felt that my streagth was coming back to me. I then ceased to take the medicine, and allowed nature to take its course, but finding my appetite going, I stimulated it by email doses of the Restorer, using no other medicine, but applying the Ointment freely. By degrees my whole system seemed to be invigorated ; and now, after a treatment of six months, I am able to resume charge of my vessel, and am only waiting her arrival in port to do so. I can easily walk four miles a day without the slightest incjnvenience. I consider my friend's suggestion saved my life, and that it is a duty that I should publicly testify to the extraordinary power of Httchen's Blood Restorer over the severest cases of rheumatism.W. M. OWEN. The agents will be happy to sh >\r original manuscripts of the several published testimonials anent the Remedy, with scorea of others not yet published. L. D. NATHAN & CO., Auckland. (Copy.) Mr D. R. Chmholm:, Agent for Mr HrrCHENS.—-Dear Sir.—lt is with heartfelt thanks that I am able to endorse the sterling qualities of Mr Hitchens's invaluable Blood Restorer. Being induced by Mr Disher, who spoke in eulogistic terms of its merits, to place my wife (who was suffering veryacutely with rheumatic fever) under its treatment, I am very happy to state the medicine has acted quite magical. After a few doses pain entirely ceased, and she is making rapid progress, and is now enabled to resume herhousehold duties. Acting so beneficially, 1 would not be without such a valuable remedy, and should impress upon those who are .similarly suffering not to overlook this specific, which is inestimable.—Believe me, yours very sincerely, Thomas Bbown, Brittania Heights, Nelson.
