So we went up on the street, lookin’ at the long rows of brown: stun buildings, where the people that get rich quick in New York city begin their experience in high life. Jones told me the names and former business of a good many of ’em; but lwas so taken up with' the thought of the beautiful being I1 had seen, and wondering ifI should: actually get an invitation to her party, that I hadn’t eyes or earsi that amounted to much.

THE FIRST NEGRO SLAVES‘ i 1N AMElthA: .â€" The frst negro slaves were im- ported into Virginia in 1619, and in 1690 there were about 2,000 negro slaves in the colony. The first slave ship fitted out in the English colonies .sailed from Boston in 1748. The French introduced slaves into their island of St. Christopher, and afterwards into Martinique and Gua- duloupe, and thence into their Ame- rican colonies The Dutch also joined in a trade which, by every eniightcnod nation, is now dccmcd contraband. The importation slaves into the United States was in- terdictcd by law in 1808. In 1774 the Legislature of Illiodc Island iii- terdictcd the importation of slaves into that colony ; and the next year, uni while still a British colony, passed a law of Emancipation by declaring the children of all slave mothers to be born frcc. Masszn ciihSctls abolished slavery by the Bill of [lights in 1780. Connecticut, in 1784, put a stop to the introduc. tion of ncgrocs and declared all born after 1110181. ofMairch of that your free at the age of twenty-six. l’cnn- sylvania prohibited the introduction lof slaves in 1780, and declared free all children of slave mothers born after the pissing of the law. Vir- ginia prohibited the importation of slaves in 1778, Maryland in 1783.â€" Slavcry was abolished in New Hampshire in 17972, and in New Jersey in 182.3. The American States which in the last century abolished slave ry. permitted the free coloured population to enjoy every right consistent with their condition as a class, and allowed bond and free to remain during their natural lives iii the colony or state where thcv lived. The Northern States did, no doubt, prosecute the slave trade at an early period with that energy which they threw into all their olhor enterprises ; but in fair- ncsst‘o them it must be admitted that some of them every early set a good eitamplc to the other states by the abolition of slaVery within their own borders; WHO MURDER Tim INNOâ€" nnd quiet ; he made me get up and turn round and round, while he put I , it puts the darlings out of temper to put your feet through their beautiful robes.

The door swung open :is soon as he touched the bell-knob, and a very good-look. ing gentlemen, all dressed up, with white gloves on, stood there bowing.

It is' loaf sugar of the pure kind, broken into lumps. For adults or those who prefer it, it..,may be taken in the lump, and suffered to dssolvc ing the mouth; but for young c'hil-' dren or those whose throat is too sore to swallow the sugar, let it, be _“tlisso‘vcd in cold water. making a. thick sweet syrup, and take a mouth- fulat a time very frequently- Two instances have come under my own notice, and 1 can answer for their truth; One was a babe of seven months,attacked \Vith croup, who took tfzilf a‘ipbmbler of sweetened, waterfinnteaspoon‘ful doses in one“ hour, and who was relieved instantv 1y cfcough and oppression for breath. The other was a soldier suffering: from pneumonia, whose cough was' so violent as to cause him to raise blood, and who was relieved by eat- ing the sugar in lumps. He prevent- ed the paroxyisms of coughing by taking the sugar as soon as he felt one coming, and since the first night. he took it has never raised blood,, which he had done with every spellf of coughing for two wecksprcviousn The remedy was first used by at?“ lady in l’nilztdelphizi, and afterwards recommended by one of our first. physicians, who saw in success, and: in his own practice was invariably satisfied with the result of using it. Remember mothers who have crou- py and delicate children, and have. lived beyond the reach ofu pliysit:ian,. the remedy lies in your own pantry, safe and ccrtuin. Use it.
