SPECIAL NOTICES.

WONDERFUL Bur True few days
since, Mr.. Jas. W. Beadle, Of Huntsville
Alabama, called on US and gave us per-
mission to publish for the benefit of suf-
fering humanity, the astonishing cure
which had been effected in the case of
bis wife by the use of Dr.. Hance's Vege.
table Epileplic Pills. He informed us,
that at the time his wife commenced
using the medicine, her system was so
entirely prostrated, by the number of
spasms she had undergone. as to reduce
her weight to one hundred pounds
Since she has been taking the pills, she
has entirely got over the spasms, ard has
gained in weight and bodily heallk. She
now weighs at least 200 lbs., and de-
clares she is in better enjoyment of health
than ever before in her life. Mr.. Beadls
also related the case of Mr.. Harrison
Lighifoot of the same town, who has
been entirely cured Of the worst form of
Epilepsie by these same pills. Mr.. Light
foot's case was SO bad that he never pas.
sed week without having an attack, Of
ten falling down in the street. He has
not had an attack for more than year
Mr.. Beadle thinks that if the pills ever
fail in curing case, it is for want of a
proper perseverance on The part Of the
person in taking them. as he feels assured
from observation in The case Of his wife,
that if they are taken for sufficient
length of time, they will cure any case.

energies to tho service of mankind is all
this of no account in the opinion Of reflect
ing people! Strike the balance, and say
if the advantages of the slave-trade do not
infinitely prcponderato ovor its evils? 1t is
an interesting inquiry, but we can pursue
it no farther. The policy Of attempting to
logalize the traffic, wo would observe, is n
very different question.
If the slavc-trado be thus prosperous,
pray whose wealth and energy arc support
ing it? The writer in the Herald, himself,
we suppose, Northern man, may give the
answer:
Vessels for tho African slavc-trade have
been fitted out at Baltimore, New York,
Bristol, r. T., Boston, and Portland, Me-;
but New York is the favorite point, because
it is SO much easier, in the crowd and rush
and wlirl of business hore, to carry on the
operations silently.
Again:
1t is in New York, rs wo have already
stated, that the greater part of tho slave
fleet is fitted out and portion of the CAPT
tai is furnished by some Of her wcalthicst
citizcns-mcn who have acquired their for
times in this trade. The credit which tho
Cuban slave-trader enjoys in our market is
probably rs Eigh as that of any class OF
merchants, not even excepting the Roth
chi;ds. They find no difficulty in obtaining
advances to the amount hore upon the Sc
curities they offer, and many Of our honest
psalm-singing merchants take advantage Of
the odium which attaches to tho business,
to charge an extra per centage for their
services.
Thus it is. These "psalm. singing NOR
chants" in Portland, Boston, and New
York, steal tho negroes in their primitive
abode, subject them to all the horrors Of
the "middlc passage" and sell them into the
intolerablo slavery of Brazil and the West
Indies. We inherit them from our fathers,
and cherish them with considerate kindness.
Tho Yankee kidnapper is n pious philanthro-
pists; the Southern master is hideous
monster. This is tho sort of sense and JUS
tico which prevail in these degenerate days
Tile South.
The Abbeville banner. [volume] (Abbeville, S.C.) 1847-1869, 1857-04-16

For the four years from 1851 to 1854,
inclusive, this gives and average importation
into both countries of something over 3d.
900 year. AS perhaps not moro than
three-fouths of the whole number was re-
ported to the mixed commission, the yearly
average for this period may be set down at
$4,000. From the year 1854 there wore
few, if any, slaves imported into Brazil, in
consequence of tho laws passed by the gov
ernment Of that country against the traffic.
Tho slavc-trade is now mainly, if moi Who'll
ly, carried on with Cuba, which imports
about twenty thousand slaves every year
which, added to the total of the trade with
both Brazil and Cuba since the year 1850,
gives the average number imported every
year, up to the present time, at about 30
900.
Thus stands the slave.trade at the present
day. In view of its flourishing condition.
one can hardly talk about reviving it.! It
is moro rational to inquire how it is that the
business prospers splendidly under the dis
couragement Of 80 many and such grievous
penalties How is it that neither the viz.
ilance Of fleets, nor tho severity of laws, nor
the repngnancc Of mankind, can arrest it's
progress or impair its growing fortunes L.
May ifnot be suspected that it is opposed on.

DoEsTICKs ON GARROrTINa.

Philander Doesticlss, the keen and clover
caricaturist, holds forth this on the subject
of garrotting. 1t seems he thinks there is
moro Of this species Of rascality in the news
papers than in tho streets, for he give two
or three cases that would hardly bear tho
cross examination Of Counsellor Brady. AS
for example -
Pigford, my esteemed friend and fellow
boardcr at Mrs. Snaglcy's, has been CARROT
ted; and it really seems as if the robbers
must have intimately known his private af-
fairs, because the event occurred on tho
night of tho very day that he received a
remittance from England to pay Mrs. Suag-
ley his five months board; ho appeared at
broalifast-tablo next morning with coun-
tcnancc SO much damaged, and Was SO cast
down on her account, that she could not
find it in her heart to refuse him three
months longer credit until he can get an
other remittance from. England.
jerks, another of our boardcrs, was gar
rottcd twice in ono wcek-it has bewil-
dering effect upon Jenks-it makes him un-
steady in the legs, and causes his breath to
smell Of rum-punch: on the frst occasion of
the robbing and choking outrage he ruug
the area bell of the house on the other side
of the street, until policeman interfered
and brought him homo; then jerks invei-
g!ed the policeman into the house and de-.
livered him over to mo with many formali-
ties, assuring me that he was garrotter
whom he had overpowered and captured
by main strength and he.showed the, star
on the M. P.'s breast the place where the,
invinciblo fist Of jerks had "smashed his
jaw" jerks was garrotted again two days
after, and brought homo by gentlemanly-
looking individual who picked his pockets
at the door, took his overcoat changed hats
with him, and then rang the bell for the
girl to como and let jerks into tho house.
The girl came, and found this individual
trying to whittle off one of the pickets of
the iron fence with his pen-knife, and mean
while making furious attempt to sing
the words of Evening Hymn to the Vir-
gin" to the classic air of "Root, Hog, or
Die"
Tho mania has extended even to the
kitchen, and the servants are now following
the example Of their betters, and getting
garotted on every favorable opportunity
If the boy goes to the butchers, he is in
variably, according to his own account, at
tackled by band of ruffians and robbed of
the money before he gets home-this has
happened four successive days in broad day
light, and has cost Mrs. Snagley about four
and-sixpence time. sent Sally, the lit
tie errahd girl, with dime for some beer
and she returned in tears, with the news
that she, too, had been sgarrotted,' and had
lost the change. She her fist full Of lemon
candy, and had two big apples in her pock.
et which suppose the robbers had given
her.
