"The brig Bella Mary, from Melbourne in ballast, bound for Kaipara, put into harbom* .yesterday morning to obtain medical aid fot Captain Owen, master of the vessel, who hat; been-Tery unwell during tbr latterpart; of the voyage. Captain Owen, who has followed the deitfaring profession for many years, and had never until leafing Melbourne on April 10th ilast, suffered' from illness of 'any severe. nature, was suddenly seised on that date with! violent pains in the back. Since then he has been swung up in a hammock iq 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 yeaterday morning, and Dr. Moore having been sent for, visited Captain Owen, and gave instructions to the mate of the vessel regarding treatment. The invalid is suffering from a species of rheunia* tisin of a Berere nature, and the doctor con* Biders it advisable to effect a partial recovery before attempting the removal of his patient to more suitable quarters on shore. Captain' Owen is well known in Auckland, and many residents will be sorry to learn of his »fflic«; tion." ■■•'' ■■'■'< '^"■••;; •"■ ";: : ■ ■■■■■ • - ;' 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 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 sinking that told me the dread end was not far off, and one of my visiting friends suggested that I should try what Hitcbens* Blood Restorer would do, as it was being so talked about,far and wide. Without much faith in it, I consented to try it, but did not notice any good effect until I h*d taken about the third or fourth bottle, when my appetite decidedly quickened; and I felt that my strength 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 small doses of the Restorer, using no other medicine, but applying the Ointment freely. By degrees ray whole system Beemed 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 m:lea a day without the slightest iriojnvenience. 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 Hitohen's Blood Restorer over the severest cases of rheumatism. W. M. OWEN. The agents will be happy to sh->w original manuscripts of the several published testimonials anent the /Remedy, with scores of others not yet published. l. d. Nathan & co., Auckland. (Copy.)

Being induoed 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 bus 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.
