Iy Nov. 18 DR. BANNING’S BODY BRACES. The^ following letter, among many, has been ad- I dressed to the Doctor ; New York, July 15, 1817. Dk.ar n rother # » # A change, yes. a i won .'erful change, has come over me since I last wrote to you. Oh, say you, what change ? I will tell you, w'ould that 1 could speak in the car of al* my sex who arc suffering as you known I have suf- j sered for years—l would tell them to look up and be comforted. There is hope even for them—yes, notwithstanding they may have "spent all their living on physicians without any benefit" but rath er grew wo.se. Ves,. brother, there is relief for ! them. Du. Banning's Justly celebrated Body Brace is the fireat panacea. You are aware that I have used various other supports, without much, if any bene fit- Well, what will you say when I tell you I have been induced by a fiiend of humanity, one that like yourself, de.ights to relieve his suffering fellow creatures, to try one of Dr. Banning's Bra ces as an experiment. I have worn it for some time, and can now testily that language is wholly inadequate to express the relief 1 have received Iroui it. 1 hat constant dull pain and pulling sen sation in my right side is wholly obviated by the use ol the Brace—likewise the pressing, bearing down of the abdomen is entirely relieved. That goneness, or feeling that the joints of the lower part of the spine were gone, is also entirely relieved.— Likewise Piles, and constant constipation of the bowels are wholly obviated. You well know how' difficult it has been for me to walk any distance for years on account of those complaints. Since 1 came to tills city. 1 have walked more than usual, and the consequence lias frequently been inability to rise from my bed for hours. Since I have worn the brace I have been enibled to walk miles daily with slight inconvenience. I have told you some ot the effects on the body ,the mortal part —1 truely leel this is marvelously supported. 1 could not have believed anything could have been devised that would or could so perfectly supported the hu man body. Bnj . what shall I say of the offect on the mind—*;t is equally wonderful. Yoar are well ■aware ol the morbid despondency from which I have long suffered, often feeling that none had sor bows like unto mine. Earth seemed like a blank, not so now, thanks be to my lleavealy Father— hope has arisen in my heart, I can look with calmness and fortitude upon life's passing trials, feeling that 1 have yet many, very many blessings. Now, dear brother, 1 want you to recommend this m nt useful panacea to all your patients afflicted as i have been. 1 am confident it will do more for them than all your drugs and nostrums. 1 sincere ly pray that the choicest of Heaven's blessings C 1 m iy rest upon the inventor of this wonder-working instrument. Wh at a consolation it must be to him ! to know that thiough his agency so large a class of sufferers have been relieved. * * * Your affectionate sister, M. KE. Those wishing to make trial of the above braces, | can be furnished with all necessary information br calling on my agent in Augusta, JOHN R. CROCKER, at D\ E A ROBERTSONS Warehouse.

MOBILE, December 3.— Cotton. —“There has been quite an active demand for cotton during the last three days, and the market has stiffened up ’ 'The sales iiave been as follows: Wednesday 800 bales, 'Thursday 1200, and to-day 1500—«• making a total for the three days of 3500 bales. The market since Wednesday has advanced cent and mid dlings, which are principally in demand, are firm at (i’jc. A large portion of the stock continues to be held back, under planters' order*, and there is com paratively but little offering. Exchange —The business co tin ties confined to sight checks on the Eastern cities,for which there is a good demand at par—being an improvement of 4 per cent since Wednesday. Time bills are meas urable neglected, and there is nothing doing in foreign.

IN the mysterious powers of Galvanism wc have to wrestle solely with facts, and in their ap- j plication to medical science, faejs the most uston- i idling are exhibited. Diseases which have been I considered beyond the reach of medicine, and i have baffled the best directed effor’s of physicians, are found to yield quite readily to the astonishing efficacy of this wondrous agency. An efficient and convenient mode of applicati m has long been desired, though but lately attained, and this lias been done by the beautiful invention of DR. CHRISTIE'S GALVANIC RINGS, BELTS, BRACELETS, and other appliances which are adapted for peculiar diseases, to any part of the system with the most perfect safety and ertainty of success. By these means the most severe andprotrai t-d cases of Rheumatism , llead ache, Dyspcj s'u, Spinal Complaints, Fits, Cramps, Neuralgia, and ail Nervous Diseases, are readily arrested in their course, and very often perfectly cured. fUpCAtiTioN.—The great celebrity and success of Dr. Christie's Galvanic and Magnetic Curatives, | has caused them to be counterfeited by unprinci- | pled persons.
