DU; WAI.jEJfANS’ SOOTHING SYRUP, 4 FOR CHILDREN TEETHING„ To Mothers arid Nurses, The passage of the teeth through) the gums produces troublesome and dangerous symptoms. It is known by mothers that there is great irri tation in the mouth and gums during this, pro • cess.

If these precursory sy nip toms are not speedily alleviated, spasmodic con vulsions universally supervene, and soon cause the dissolution of the infant., If mothers who have their little babes afflicted witli these dis tressing symptoms would apply the celebrated Ameiicaa Soothing Syi up, which has preserved hundreds of infants when thought past recovery,, from being suddenly attacked witli that fatal malady convulsions. Tliis infallible remedy lias preserved hundreds when'thought past recovery, from convulsions. As soon as the Sv rup_ is i uhbed on the gums, the child will recover. This preparation is so inno cent, su'efiicacious, and so pleasant, that no cliild will refuse to let its gums he rubbed with it. . When infants arc at the age of four mouths, though there is no appearance of leetli, one bot tle of tile syrup should be, used oh the gums to open the pores.

The Liverpool had not ar rived when the British Queen sailed—nor was there any intelligence of the suspension of the United States Bank*—great anxiety was felt for her arrival.

Tile loan on London for £BOO,OOO had not been filled up beyond dispute—and a great controversy had broke out in the press respecting its character. The negotia tion for the loan in Holland had failed'.— Cotton had fallen three eights of a'penny in Liverpool, and yarns Cone-half penny in Man chester—most unluokcd for and unprece dented . dcclinei—and fears were entertained that new difficulties would break out in the money market. If such was the condition of motley and commercial affairs before the arrival of (he Liverpool, what will they be after the arrival?
