A HEAL BLESSING TO MOTHERS^
DR W. EVA AS’ CKLE Bit AT ED SOOTHING
SYRUP, for Children Gutting their Teeth.—This
infallible remedy has 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 ths age of four months, though
there is no appearance of teeth, one bottle of the
Syrup should be used on the gums, to open the
pores. Parents should never be without the Syrup
in the nursery where there arc young children-,for
I if a child wakes in the night with pain in the gums,
' the .syrup immediately gives ease, by opening the
pores end healing the gums ; thereby preventing
convulsions, fevers, &c. Sold only at Dr. VVm.
Evans’ Medical Office, 100 Chatham street, New
York, where the Doctor maybe consulted on all
diseases of children.
PROOF POSITIVE OF THE EFFICACY OF
Dr. EVANS’ SOOTHING SYRUP.—To the Agent
of Dr. Evans’ Soothing- Syrup: Dear Sir—The
great bencht alforded to my suffering infant by
your Soothing Syrup, in a case of protracted and
painful dentition, must convince every feeling pa
rent how essentia! an early application of such an
invaluable medicine is to relieve infant misery and
torture. My infant, when teeming, experienced
such acute sufferings, that it was attacked witq
convulsions, and my wife and family supposed that
death would soon release the babe from anguish,
ill we procured a bottle of your Syrnp; which as
soon as applied to the gums, a wonderfu. change
was produced, and after a few applications the
child displayed obvious relief, and by continuing in
its use, 1 am glad to inform you the child has com
pletely recovered, and no recurrence of that awful
complaint has since occurred ; tue teeth are ema
nating daily and the child enjoys perfect health.
1 give you my cheerful permission to make this
acknowledgment public, and will gladly give any
information on this civcumst; 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 have long been successfully used for the cure
of intesmittents, together with fevers of the irregu
lar nervous kind, accompanied with visceral ob
structions.
This tanic 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
rfjie mind becomes irritable,desponding, thoughtful,
'melancholy, and dejected. Hypochondriacism, con
sumption, dimness of sight, delirium, and all other
nervous affections, these pills will produce a safe
and permanent cure.
Evans’ Camomile Pills were firstintrod»ccd into
America in 1836.
EVANS’ FAMILY APERIENT PILLS are
purely vegetable, composed with the strictest pre
cision of science and of art; they never produce
nausea, and arc warranted to-cure the following,
diseases which arise from impurities of the blood,
viz:— Apoplexy, liilious 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 whatsoever kind to which human
nature is subject, where the stomach is affected.
More conclusive proofs of the extraordinary effi
caty of Dr. IVm. Evans’ celebrated Camomile and
Aperient Anti-Bilwus Pills, in alleviating afflicted
mankind. —Mr. Robert Cameron, 101 Howcty.—
Disease —Chronic Dysentery, or Bloody Flux —
Symptoms, unusual flatulency ia the bowels, se
vere griping, frequent inclination to go to stool, tu
nusmus, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, fre
quency of pulse, and a frequent discharge of a pe
culiar foetid matter mixed with blood .great debility,
sense of burning heat, with an intolerable bearing
down of Die parts. Mr. Cameron is enjoying per
fect health, and returns his sincere thanks for the
extraordinary benefits he has-received.

PROSPECTUS
OF THE
HOUTIIEBN LADIES’ BOOK.
EDITED 0Y
PHILIP C. PENDLETON AMI fiKORHE P. FIERCE.
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 ttieirespecial benefit that the work
is projected:
I N submitting the following plan, wc would first
call the attention of the i nd»»,aud all those
who feel interested (and who' are' these that do
not ?) in the welfare and improvement of the female
sex, to the present condition of the southern press.
Nearly all the publications which issue from it are
engaged in 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.
Os the few literary papers published south of the
Potomac, thero is not one exclusively dedicated
to the LADIES! Wc have felt this as a want
which ought to be supplied; and we propose to
make an effort to do so, colliding that our endea
vors will lie crowned with Success, wc we can only
secure the hearty co-operation of those for whose
welfare we are about to labor—the ladies of the
south. And wc 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 soothing companionship,.
1 life would be dreary and this fair world a desert.
Wc wish also to afford to the ladies a field for
the exercise of their own talents, and for the de
i velopment of the resources of their minds. The
1 lists of authors, for some few years past, have fre
quently enrolled the names of females whose glo
“ rious success has shed an additional radiance on the
1 name of “Woman.” The “lords of creation’’have
r been forced to acknowledge that the female mind.
• is by no mean i deficient in capacity and iiktellec--
• 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 underrated, and forced to remain inactive
* or uncxerciscd by the force of conventional ar
rangement*; but her chains are broken, and her li
berty has been proclaimed. The article if Mos
lem faith, that “women have no souls,” no longer
chtains among us. Let the ladies now assert their
own privileges, and we offer them, in our proposed
work, a medium for the expression of their own
views and sentiments, on all that app:rtains,in any
degree, to the welfare and improvement of their
sex.
* In offering the plan of a Southern Ladies’
Book, wc do not intend that it shall he precisely
similar to a work of like name at the north. Wc
c leave to our northern cotemporary pictoral repre
sentations ol fashion and dress, for the embellish
ment of 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 he our special
care, that our work may be a useful aid to the
young, and lair, and beautiful, in preparing them
selves for the discharge of the noble and arduous
I 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'
i several ladies whose productions have already
i 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 Aits, 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 wili
render it worthy the attention of the learned, and
of those to whom it is especially dedicated — the
lAtdies of the South and West. It only remains to
i htain the requisite number cf subscribers —say
two thousand —and if the ladies will smile upon
and aid our efforts, that number will not long he
wanting. Let them urge their fathers, husbands,
brothers and friends, and it is soon done.
(fj" The work will contain sixty four royal oc
tavo pages, stitched in a neat colored cover, and
will appear monthly. Terms — Five Dollars per
annum, payable on the delivery of the first number.
It is highly important to state that all th*
subscribers names which may be obtained, should
be forwarded by the Ist of December next. Agents
will please besr this io mim 1-
