The passage of the teeth through, the gums ? reduces troublesome and dangerous symptoms, t is known by mothers that there is great irri tation in the mouth and glims during this, pro cess.

IF these precursory symp toms are not speedily alleviated, spasmodic con vulsions universally supervene, and snnn cause the dissolution of the infant. If mothers who have.llieir little babes afflicted with these dis tressing symptoms would apply the celebrated American Soothing Syrup, which has prcservtd hundreds of infants when thought past recovery, from being suddenly attacked with that fatal maladv convulsions. * This infallible remedy has preserved hundreds when thought past recovery, from convulsions.

Gen.,Harrison’s Plan Proposed, 1. The educating uf.cvery b»v in the’ U. Statesat the public expense.

The .classification of Mr. Poinsett con templated three classes, all subject.to.be cal led- out in emergency through the Executive of the State—one hundreff thousand men only to undergo traimpg.probably teridays in a year,,for lour years—then to remain as a reserve for four years longer—and then to be exempt.

AVhat the, cost of this universal military education would amount to, it is,iinpossible Torus to say. We .think that the pay of a private would hardly defray the tuition bill of each military scholar. -Upon the supposition that it would take this sum, the effect would be of maintaining ail. the male minors in the country, as a standing army. The outlay would scarcely be less. Mr. Poinsett’s scheme is at least free, from this prodigal -waste:. Harrison’s plan in keeping up the militia, “as it now exists,, for the ordinary duties of muster discipline ,” would burden all subject to that duty, throughout the .Union, to the expense of arms and accoutrements, militia fines, loss of time, &c. All (Ids is done away with in Mr. Poinsett’s proposi tion.. By mustering the portions of inililin near .arsenals' placet! in convenient situations. Mr. Poinsett would have the active class of militia perfectly armed on pai-ado, without expense to them. , Harrison’s militia establishment (in addi tion to the old system. whiclr.he.would.still "keep up) consists of the junior or middle class, of .100,000 young men, to .be trained for one month. For the .pay of these, he makes no. provision. But submitted, with his report, (we use his own words,) “esti mates of the expense of training; the officers and sergeants of the militia of the United States.' *The estimates are made on a sup-’ posed number of one httndred thousand men, divided equally, as nearly as may he, into twenty-foe brigades .” He give? then the details—for which we have not room, upon the supposition that Congress would allow “fair pay;” and he thus sums up.the aggregated .- .“ Estimating the_ whole United-‘Stales, militia at a million, (hen the total expense of training the officers of the militia would be some hundred thousand:dollars less than two millions” ' : Tlie militia is now nearly double the num ber for wliich.llarrisun estimated. Thecsti-, mate to pay for training the officers would,, therefore, now be nearly four millions! ~ „ He, however, submitted another estimate, upon the supposition that Congress would not allow so much on a basis which he thus gives: - " “The following estimate is made on the supposition of the officers receiving only hqll pay. The estimate proceeds, however, upon a supposition that no officer is to receive less than thirty dollars per month, and the ser geants full pay and rations.” . After giving the details, he sums up the cost of training the officers at “one million FIVE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-EIGHT THOUSAND dollars!”, . Mr. Poinsett’s estimate,'which provided to pay the men, as Well as the officers, for their loss of time when training, amounted to a iiaLf million only!! So much for the burdens which the Harri son system and that of the Secretary .would impose upon the Treasury and the class in our country subject.to militia duty. - But there is.another point of comparison which distinguishes- the political origin of tho two plans. , , " ■ Harrison’s plan laid it down as fundamen tal:-'' v- ; ■''.‘That. the President should,-in all cases, address his .orders immediately to sohie of ficer of the militia, and not to the EXECU TIVE of any state; 'The GOVERNOR of a Slate.islSO't'd inililid officer, BOtINH to oßhEna'of the President; he can hotbeltied orders, and punished by the sentence of a court martial.” v. This certainly smacks of the school which 1 i first-pihhed. the black cockade on. Harrison’s jhat. Thcwliole of-.it,. indeed, from the ' tuition ih the. schoois—the.paying, the pffi | ccrs under training’to'.life'.exclusion of the enables the Presi dent to conitnand through an officer whom he may .punish fordisobedience “by court mar tialj”.beat:s the impress of the standing army in which Harrison' held his- commission in the days of the; alien and.sedition laws. . Mf. Toinsctt’s plan enables the Chief Magistrate- of.sthe- nation to command, .through the Chief Magistrate ofa State; and in this he discriminates the Administration which would maintain State Rights from that which., would renew the Federal era. It must hot berforgolten that Harrison, on the 3d of Fcbruary last, in a letter to the Louis ville Legion, which w f ~ ~ .blished -,'gi . .verepuL Jbeil, referred, to his scheme which we have here analyzed,' as one, he would now urge on the nationi .

A poor woman, living near Cbasowater, missed ber child, a little boy about two years old, and after a few minutes search discovered him at the bottom of a well 12 feet deep, contain ing eight feet of water, The agonized parent, without the slightest hesitation, sprang.into the well; when through her falling into the water, the child was raised towards the sur face and she was enabled to take hold of it. For a long while she managed by clinging to a prnjecfing stone to keep licrself and the lit tle boy above water, and at length her cries which were heard by a congregation'll t a chap el .vqUnrtpr of a mile off brought some young tnen to her assistance, who soon rescued both tlie~motlicr"and‘ her child' from their perilous situation. ■ ■ • Apropos.— The following anecdote is rjtiild applicable to both'of the great political par- 1 tics of'Jhe present day, who are continually assailing each other through the medium of of the press. It was tl)c late Judge Olin.ol Vermont, who gave the sarcastic reply to the querist:—r A Mr. T., though not personally acquaint ed with] the Judge, knew him to be one of the'most influential members of the Icgisla ture.and of politics opposed to his own - —■ Boing once informed that the Judge was then at tliewillage stage house, Mr. T, prdceeded thither and cominenccd-’abnsing the - Judge, inaloud andboisterousconversation with the other, on account of some of his public acts. The' remarks of Mi - '. T. being gradually so shaped that it became necessary for the Judge to notice them, he quietly said— " Sir, you remind me of a little dog my father had, when 1 was a boy, that used to. go out o’,nights and bark-.at thermion.’’ “And what thenf ’’ asked Mr. T. "Nothing more than the moon kept on shining,” replied. the Judge, 'as he quietly walked out and seated himself in the staged’ John - . —We have thought that this ancient name would be handed down to the latest generation, and We, now doubt not that the latest inhabitant of this world, .when its bu siness is wountl.tpa close, will be a" John,’* and in the world to come, the last name on the list of debtors to grace will be a “John;’* we inffr this from the rapid increase of "Johns,” and we fear that the name “John” .will be given to every body. Step into the street and the first name you hear is “John;” go into the crowd, and “John” is the first to greet you; I(l'any thingis wanted, just call "John;” a burglary committed, “John” has done it; a wedding on hand, “John”is a pat ty: a defalcation, “John” is off to Texas; a in the street, “John” is its author; slan der going the rounds, “John’’ is its retailer; a loafer brought before the Police Court, “why is that you; John?” a witness wanted, call .“John;” a funeral invitation, “Ah, poor John is dead;” a mob raised, “John” is at its head; a writ to be served, “John” is the very man, no other name will answer.. Hea ven be praised that our naipe is not “John.” Oh, John, John, what ri black list will appear against thee at the day of reckoning. A Caution —it is stated that ti rather.el derly young lady in’lbis State, lias brought an action of breach of promise, against a ncighhoring schoolmnslcr, for an alleged breach of promise of marriage. The chief evidence was, that, the said pedagogue had come over toiler house and took tea twice a week for ten years. This should operate as n-caution to nit schoolmasters, how they take tea more than once, in regular succession, with antiquated spinsters.— -Host.
