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 tr. atmenfc. The invalid is suffering from' a' species of! rheuma-, tisin of a severe nature, and the doctor considers it advisable to effect a partial recovery before attempting the removal of his patient. -to more suitable quarters on shore.-- 'Captain Owen iB well known in Auckland, and many; residents will'be sdrry to learn of his afflic-i tion." Referring to above, Captain Owen has this day (Ist December) stated: "After being; treated for about five weeks by two medicalmen successively, with very lit fie alteration jn 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 sinking that told me the \dread' end; was not far off, and one of my visiting friends! suggested that I should : try'what Hitchens' Blood Restorer would do, .as it was being, talked about far and wide. .'Without' ih'uch; faith in it, 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 T felt; that my strength, was;,coming back to me.l I then ceased, to .take the medicine, and allowed nature'-to'take its course, but finding;) my'appeiite; going, I stimulated it.by. snjajl;! doses of the Restorer, losing;nd' other m?edi- ; ciue, but. applying the Ointmbnt freely. By! degrees'my^w'h'oie'system aeemedto bo mvi-: gorated ; 'and 'now, after a treatment of six months, I am able to resume charge of m.v vessel, and am only waiting her arrival in; port to do bo. I can easily walk four m les a day without the slightest inconvenience. I coheidor my friend's suggestion saved mjl life, and-1 hat it is a duty that I «hould: publicly testify to the extraordinary power of-Hitchen'a Blood Restorer dfer the severest cases of, rheumatism.
