BENEVOLENCE.

We do not think person can evince a more
benevolent trait of character than being moved
at the distress and suferiDg OF others, and fur
ihermore, ious 10 DO all in their power TO al
Ieviate by every possible means human suffer
ing. Ia this vie Of tie case, we do not know
how The humane and benevolent can do an &C
ton more in accordance with their philanthrop-
ic views, than by ca ling the attention Of their
afflicted friends and acquaintance to the fact
that Dr. Seth 5. Hance Of lOS Baltimore street
Baltimore, Nd, has discovered preparation
which is put up in The form Of pill, that has q
specific action for curing Epilepsy, or falling
fits, spasms, cramps, and all forms of nervous
diseases. Among those who have been perma-
nently cured we might mention member OF
the family Of James H. Beade, HunlsS lie, AL
ALBANIA Mr.. NJ. p. Sled!e, Cabin Point, Surry
County. Va, and Mr.. w. P. Lyon, Grenade,
Mississippi We might go on enumeEatng a
number of others, until we had entirely filled
up this column OF our paper; but we thIrk we
have said sufficient to satisfy every person that
the subject under CONSIDERATION is one Of vital
importance to every one. Reader if you are a
well man or woman, and have no need of a
remedy, perhs s you know some person who is
not equally blessed as your elf, if so cut oul
this notice and send it to Tim o: her. 1t will
cost you but little trouble and probably it will
make you instrumental in curing some poor,
afflicted mortal OF that dreadful visitation, EPi-
IepSy, or falling sickness.

lage to all parts of The world on the receipt OF
remittance. His prices one box So
