Captain Owen, who htis followed the te faring profes-ion for manj yearß,>attd had. never until learing Melbourne on April 10th Jast, Buffered from illness of any severe nature, was suddenly seized on that date with violent pains in the back. Sinceill en he hus been swung up in a hammock ih the cabin quite helpless. The vessel was off Kaipara at noon on Thursday last, but the weather being thick; and .foggy, it wan deemed advisable to come or to Auckland for medical assistance. The barque arrived early yesterday morning, i nnd Dr. Moore having been Bent for, visited Captain Owen, and gave instructions to the tho,t.e of -the vessel regarding trratrrifat. The invalid is suffering from a species of vheumatiara of a severe nature, and the doctor conaiders it advisable to effect a partialWcovery I before attempting the removal of his patient •to more suitable quarters on shore. Captain I 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 being treated for about five weeks by two medical men successively, with very little attention in my condition, except that the pain in my hands and back was made somewhat; easier through tbe 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 1 should try what Hitcbens' Blood Restorer would do, as it w«b being so talked about far. and wide. Without' much faith in it/1 consented to try it, but did not notice any good effect until I h d taken about tbe third or fourth' bottle, when my uppetite decidedly quickened, and I felt that my-strength »us coming, back to me. I then ceased to take 'the mejicine, and r allowed nature to take.its course, b_t finding 'my uppetite going, 1 stimulated it by small doses of the .Restorer, using no other medicine, but applying the Ointment freely. By degrees my wnolo 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 bo. I can easily walk four miles a day without tho slightest inconvenience. I consider my friend's suggestion savedtny life, and (hat jt is a duty that I should publicly testify to the extraordinary power of Hitchen's Blood Restorer .over the severest cases of rheumatism. . * W.

(Copy,) MrD. R. Chisholm, Agent for Mr Hxtchkns.—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 very acutely 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 her household duties. Acting so beneficially, 1 would not be without such a valuable remedy, and should impress upon those who are similarly Buffering not to overlook this specific, which is inestimable. —Believe me, yours very sincerely, Thomab Bbown, Brittania Heights, Nelson.
