PINE HILL, March 4, 1854.
DnAR SIR: have been q subject of Dyspepsia, in
its worst FORM for the last FIVE years Such was my
condition for twelve months that the physicians and
all who saw me said must die. While in this con-
diton was carried to the watering places in Vir-
GINA, Tennessee, and North Carolina, but was not
benefited by any water to which was taken While
on NV way home stopped week at Ruthertordton,
small village in North Carolina TO try the effect of
some Chalybeate water in that place. About the last
of the week went into drug store to get some med
icine for my child and myself. There were several
Of the village physicians the store, and one of them
seemed to take interest in my case and, after
asking me some questions, said he had been dys
peptic and had been greatly benefited by the use
soad sy and
called the next day at my room and insisted so much
that would try them that asked him to get me
one bottle. He did it and commenced taking it as
directed and more benefited by it than all the
water and medicine had ever taken.
After reaching home, one OF my neighbours came to
me for prescription and medicine, Che dyspeptic,)
and gave him nearly all the Bitters had left which
effected much good in his case. He has often called
on me for more of the r.le kind of medicine, saying
he was more benefited by it than any other he had
taken, but have not been able to get any more for
him or myself since Will you therefore, please ship
me dozen more as soon as possible.
Respectfully, yours, w. SMITH.

GENTLEaEN: have received your letter Of the
lst inst, and lose no time in replying to 1t.
Upon the general subject of American slavery,
my opinions, perhaps, are not different from yonr
own, or from those usually entertained by northern
men regard it Us a social, moral and political
evil; and it's successful abolition, In my Judgment,
would be worth almost any price short Of the Union
ITSELF The idea of its extension into new Terrific
ries must be abhorrent to every ight-minded and
sound-hearted man. Nothing could induce me to
give my vote or influence to establish it single
foot of free soil. EaEAaE PLY EGE
These statements are probably sufficient an
swer to your letter; but am free to add, that /
deeply regretted the movement Of last winter
which led to the repeal Of the Missouri Compro-
mise / still think it was unnecessary and unwise;
and had been in Congress, my influence would
have been exerted, as was that Of our present
Representative, Mr.. Mayall, to prevent it. And
although, in its practical consequence, the move.
nlent is likely to prove of disadvantage to free
dom, it is none the less true that it had revived
dangerous agitatiops, and in repeating an old com
promise, has given rude shock to the public mind
Of the North. III E

Fifty years ago or less, the policy Of the
law, at least in some Of the States, was
strongly in faver Of emancipation. In those
times, a cClored man, even though held as a
slave, might expect justice even from a
slaveholding jury. In those days, such
lawyers as Writ and Pinckney engaged with
zeal and often with success in prosecuting
claims to freedom. We hear of no such
cases now, except now and then in Louis
iana.-N 7. Tribune.
Assuming such change to have been
wrought as the Tribune asserts, it is interest
ing to enquire what has caused IT, We
think It has been mainly produced by the
crusade which has been waged against
Southern domestic institutions by those who
had no interest in them and no legitimate
control over them. With the slavery ques-
ton in all its aspects left solely to the action
of the people among whom the institution
existed, it would naturally be discussed
calmly and treated fairly. All evils and
abuses attending it would be fearlessly ex-
posed and as far as possible corrected. But
the moment you apply an outside pressure,
you silence enquiry and the voice Of expos
tulation and reform within a slave State.
Men shrink from exposing abuses, or pro-
posing reforms, from fear of being charged
with sympathy with the external enemies OF
the State. The anti-sIavery agitation of the
North has been for the last twenty years a
perfect barrier against the adoption of meas
ures at the South, looking towards ultimate
emancipation. The South have been assail-
ed and put upon the defensive. They have
followed the natural impulse Of resisting az
gression and of refusing to be kicked into
benevolence.
They refuse to tolerate the discussion OF
evils, which, except for this outside aggres-
sion, they would have remedied. The North
ern Abolitionists have, practically, been the
greatest enemies of emancipation, and the
most effective advocates Of slavery extern
sion. The Tribune has done far more than
the Charleston Mercury to rivet the chains of
slavery and prevent even an ameliOration Of
the condition of the enslaved. Human ma
tire is very much the same the world over,
and is apt to resent any impertinent interfer-
ence by one man-in the affairs of another.
''Mind your own business IS aPhOrism
which is full of comruOn sense and philoso-
ply, whether applied to the affairs of indi-
Viduals OF the conduct of communities and
States. The sooner we apply it broadly in
our treatment Of the slavery question, as be-
tween the States and Territories, the better
will the interests of philanthropy and true
wisdom be subserved.--AB1Ry Atlas and
Argus.
