01y- BENYOLENCE.-We do not think
a person can evince more benevolent trait
Of character than being moved at the dis.
tress and suffering Of others, and further
more, anxious to do all in their power to
alleviate by every possible means human
suffering. In this view of the case, we do
not know how the humane and benevolent
can do an action more in accordance with
their phianthropic views, than by calling
the attention of their afflicted friends and
acquaintances to the fact, that DIR. Seth S.
Hance, of l05 Baltimore Street, Baltimore,
Md, has discovered preparation, which
is put up in the form Of pill, that has a
specific action for curing Epilepsy, or fall
ing fits, spasms, cramps, and all forms Of
nervous diseases, Among those who have
,fbeen permanently cured, we might mention
a member of the family Of James II. Bea-
Sale, Huntsville, Alabama; Mr.. NJ. P.
