AFRICAN SLAVE TRADE OPENED Negroes for Sale. I HAVE just received from Virginia, South Caro-lina and Missouri, as likely and healthy a lot of Negroes as ever came from those States, consisting of field hands, mechanics, nurses, washers and ironers, and cooks, which I will sell at rates which cannot fail to please the purchaser. I will keep a large number of Negroes at my Depot on Mulberry street constantly on hand, for sale, and will be able to supply all with just such Negroes as they may wish, at any time. As my brother is constantly making purchases in the border States, I will be able to supply all who may wish to purchase during the whole season, at more reasonable prices than elsewhere. A. H. FORREST & CO. sep22-d&wtf
