~ A REAL BLESSING TO MOTHERS.
DR. W. EFANS’ CELEBRATED SOOTHING
SYRUP, for Children Cutting their Teeth.— This
infallible remedy bas preserved hundreds of chil
dren, when thought past recovery, from convul
sions. As soon as the Syrup is rubbed on the
gums, the child will recover. The preparation is
so innocent, so efficacious and so pleasant, that no
child will refuse to let its gums be rubbed with it
When infants arc at the age of four months-, though 1
there is no appearance of teeth, one buttle of ti e >
Syrup should be used on the gums; to- open the ;
pores. Parents should never be without tine Syrup
in the nursery where there are young children; for
if a child wakes in the night with pain in the gums,
the Syrup immediately gives ease, by opening tlic
pores end healing the gums; thereby preventing
convulsions, fevers, &c. Sold only at Dr. Wm.
Evans’Medical Office, 100 Chatham street, New
York, where the Doctor may be consulted on all
diseases of children.
PROOF POSITIVE OF THE EFFICACY OF
jpr. EVANS’ SOOTHING SYRUP.—To the Agent
Dr. Evans’ Soothing Syrup: Dear Sir—The
great benefit afforded to my suffering infant by
your toothing Syrup, in a case of protracted and
painful dentition, must convince every fcelytg pa
rent how essential an early application of such an
invaluable medicine is to relieve infant misery and
torture. My infant,-when teething, experienced
such acute sufferings, that it was attacked witq
convulsions, and my wife and family supposed that
death would soon release the Jiabe from anguish,
till we procured a bottle of your Syrnp; which as
soon as applied-to the gums, a wonderful change
was produced, and after a few applications the
child displayed of-vious relief, and by conlinuiug in
its use, 1 am glad, to inform you the child has com
pletely recovered, and no recurrence of that awful
complaint lias since occurred ; the teeth are ema
nating daily and the child enjoys perfect heallp.
I give you my cheerful permission to mako this
acknowledgment public, andw-ill gladly give any
information on this circumsti nee.

TONIC PILLS. —The power of Evans’ Camomile
Pills are such, that the palpitating heart, the trem
ulous hand, the dizzy eye, and the fluttering mind,
vanish before their effects like noxious vapors be
fore the benign influence of the morning sun.—
- They hare long been successfully used for the cure
of intesmittents, together with fevers of the irregu
lar nervous kind, accompanied with visceral ob
structions.
This tonic medicine is for nervous complaints,
general debility, indigestion and its consequences,
or want of appetite, distension of the stomach, acid
ity, unpleasant taste in the mouth, rumbling noise
in the bowels, nervous symptoms, languor, when
the mind becomes irritable,desponding,thoughtful,
melancholy, and dejected. Hypochundriacism, con
sumption, dimness of sight, delirium, and all other
nervous affections, these pills will produce a safe
and permanent cure.
Evans' Camomile Pills were first introdweed into,
America in 1835.
EVANS’ FAMILY APERIENT PILLS arc
Mjiely vegetabh , composed with the strictest pre
cision of science and of art; they never produce
nausea, ami arc warranted to cure the following
disease- which arise from impurities of the blood,
viz:— Apoplexy, Bilious Affections, Coughs, Colds,
Ulcerated Sore Throats, Scarlet Fever, Asthma, Cho
lera, Liver Complaints, Diseases of the Kidnies and
Bladder, Affections peculiar to Females, and all
those diseases of wl atsoever kind to which human
nature is subject, where the stomach is affected.
More conclusive proofs of the extraordinary effi
cacy of Dr, IVm. Evans’ celebrated Camomile and
Aperient Anti-Bihuus Pills,in alleviating afflicted
mankind. —Mr. Robert Cameron, 101 Bowery.—
Disease —Chronic Dysentery, or Bloody Flux —
Symptoms, unusual flatulency in the bowels, se

1 SOUTHERN LADIES’ BOOK.
FDITCDiIV
JIIULIV C. EKNDI.KTOX AXII (IF.OROK r. PIKBCB.
To the Ladies of Georgia, and of the South gene
rally, the following plan is. most respectfully
submitted. It is hoped that it will receive their
serious attention, and meet: their approbation,
since it is for their especial benefit that the work
is projected:
IN submitting the following plan, we would first
call the attention of the i adies, and all those
vho feel interested (and who are those that do.
not?) in the welfare andimprovement of the female
sex, to the present condition of Uie southern press.
Nearly all the publications which issue from itare
engaged i i political discussions, and their columns
teem with accusations, denials, abuse, and every
other form of wordy warfare—carried on in lan
guage frequently unlit for “ears polite,” and sel
dom suited to the delicacy and gentleness which
belong so peculiarly te the female character.
Us the few literary papers published south of. the
Potomac, there is not one exclusively, dedicated
to the LADIES! We have fhlt this as a want
which ought to be supplied) and. we propose to
. make an effort to do so, confiding, that our endea
vors w, 11 be crowned With success, we we can only
secure the hearty co-operation of those for whose
welfare we are about to laboi^—the ladies of the
south. And we expect, further, that every intelli
gent mind among the other sex, will view with ap
probation, and aid in sustaining, an enterprise de
signed to improve the minds of those, without
whose cheering smiles and-sootlling companionship,
life would be dreary and this fair world a desert.
We wish also to afford to the ladles a field for
the exercise of their own taler,tft, and for the de
velopment of the resources of their minds. The
lists of authors, for some few years past, have fre
quency enrolled the names of females whose glo
rious success has sheil amadditional radiance on the
name of “Woman.” The “lords ofcreation”havc
been forced to acknowledge that the femaie mind
is by no mean i deficient in capacity and intellec
tual endowments—whilst, at the same time, it is
possessed of superior delicacy and tact. Long was
woman’s mind held in thraldom, long were her
powers unde .-rated, and forced to remain inactive
or unexercised by the force of conventional ar
rangements; but her chains ars broken, and her li
berty has been preclaimed. The article if Mos
lem faith, that “women have no souls,” no longer
cbtains among us. Let the ladies now assert their
own privileges, and we otter them, incur proposed
work, a medium fur the expression oi their own
views and sentiments, oil all that appertains, in any
degree, to the welfare and Improvement of their
sex.
In offering the plan of a Southern Ladies’
Hook, we do not intend that it shall be precisely
similar to a work of like name at the north. We
leave to our northern cotemporary pictoral repre
sentations of fashion and dress, for the embellish-,
mentof the person: be it ours to provide a garb of
purity, elegance, refinement and grace, for the a
dornment of the mind. All that may contribute to
form the heart, invigorate the mind, purify the af
fections, and refine the manners,shall be our special
care, that our work may b« a useful aid to the
young, and fair, and beautiful, in preparing them
selves for the discharge, of the noble and arduous
duties which devolve on woman,in her varied-capa
city of daughter, wife and mother. And we re
peat that in the accomplishment of this high en
terprise, we confidently expect the aid and support
of the enlightened and judicious of both sexes.—
Arrangements for regular aid will be made with,
several ladies whose productions have already
gained the high fame in the literary world —and
several gentlemen of distinguished attainments
have already been secured as contributors, from
whom scientific tracts, with notes, and observa
tions on the Arts, may be expected. ’This depart
ment of the work will receive marked attention.
In short nothing will be omitted which may tend
to give to the publication such character as wHI
render it worthy the attention of the learned, and
of those.to whom it is especially dedicated —the
Ladies of the South and West. It only remains to
i btain the requisite number of subscribers—say
two thousand—and if the ladies will smile upon
and aid our efforts, that number will not long be
wanting. Let them uige their fathers, husbands,
brothers and friends, and It is soon done.
(Xj- The work will contain sixty so :r royal oc
tavo pages, stitched in a. neat colored cover, and
will appear monthly. Terms—Fine Dollars per
annum, pay able on I he-dtU very of the first number.
CCp-Iti* highly important to state that all the
subscribers names which may be obtained, should
be forwarded-by the Ist of December next. Agents
will please bear this in mint.
