The gums Swell; the secretion of the saliva is increased, the child is seized with frequent and suddeft fits of crying, watching, starting; in its sleep, and sjla?rrts cf peculiar parts; the child shrieks with extreme violence, arid thiusts its fingers into its mouth. If these precursory symp 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 with these dis tressing Symptoms would apply the celebrated American Soothing-Syrup, which has preserved hundreds of infants .when thought past recovery,, from b'eing suddenly Attacked with that fatal malady convulsions. .

But I prdpoaed;;to:.proye-that;-even-if .a ; Bank of the UnitijirStates had the disposi tion' torestrain the loads and issues of-the State banks, it would not possess the power. I suppose a case for the sake of the argument, which can scarcely, ever exist, because as it regulator of the currency; it would have a duty to perform directly at war with the in tcrests-ofits stockholders. —- J - - - . The only mode by which it has been thought that this object could b 6 accomplish ed, was for the Bank.of the United States, confining its own business within safe and proper limits, to receive the notes of the State banks bn deposite and in payment; and to call upon inert at short periods lb pay the balances in specif. But, in' tfie riature of things, it would be impossible for silch a A bank to receive the notes, and restrain'the overissues of more than a very few of the eight h'Undrbd"banks,~which are nowscatter eu dver the country. Each of these banks has its own limited’sphereof circulation) and they are not compelled to,receive the paper of each other.-- In pointcfTact, this is not generally done; nor could att£. Bank of the States be required to receive all the notes which these eight hundred papet man ufactories are constantly pouring out ripOtt the'public. From the law which regulates currency, that - which is the worst, has al ways the most extensive circulation. Indi viduals will always hold fast by the gold arul silver) and pass away the bank notes; and of those iioteS) they will pay olit the doubtftil, and preserve .those which are above suspi cion) No Bank of the United States, liovv -1 ever great its capital) and extendcd’its pow ers, could ever reach the evil. It could nev er transact business with one bank in ten, I might say in twenty, of the whole number. . But it is in vain to speculate upon this - subject. Experience is • thejresf teacher.— One fact is worth one hundred arguments. Independently of the adverse experience of our own country, the experiment has been tried by the Bank of England under the most auspicious circumstances, and it has Utterly ■ failed-. , ■ The real capital of the Batik of England is about seventy,millions of dollars, and it has fen branches at the mostcommcrciarand' manufacturing points of the kingdom. In 1836, the rate of foreign exchange was large ly against England. The specie of the Bank was,- therefore, gradually drawn from its vaults for exportation. It became, necessary, for its own salvation, that it shoUld make a vigorous effort to diminish the amount of the circulating paper me'clium, and thereby re store the equilibrium of the foreign exchanges. The bank Credits and currency of England had become so inflated, and, in consequence, the prices of all articles had advanced to such a standard, that) to use the language of one of their own statesmen, it had become the best coilnti-y to sell in, and the worst to huy“Tn7throughou t the world.—l t was - pro- Atablc, therefore, to import every foreign production which could be admitted to en try, and on account of the high paper prices of their domestic productions, their exports were greatly diminished.

For this purpose it' ‘contracted it's loans and is sUes;-in the vain hope that the joint stock and private bank's would be compelled to follow its example') In our slang, it put tfie screw upon them.
