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.

McGKAN. 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-
