AMERICAN SOOTHING SYRUP, rot CHTLDRIN WHILE CUTTING THEIS TEEM. • AMORE singular instance of the efficacy of this invaluable Medicine cannot be found, than in the case of a of Mrs. Smith, No. 20, 1 aartrce-street,llfatcrioo-road; the child at 19 months old having only four teeth, and sufering under the re.o.t alarming waste of body, it was emaciated to such a degree that its arms appeared to contain only a fibrous substance, no bone being felt; in this state the child lingered for many months, incapable of being moved, when PROVIEENCI di:ected her to try the SOOTfIINO SYRUP, which in one week produced four more teeth, and destroyed the fever which had so Ion; threatened the life of the child, who is now four years old, having cut all his teeth, and the bones I...ein to be restored to their natural substance, and the child is able to walk about with the assistance of a go-cart. The mother having another child three months old, lost no time in applying the Syrup to its gums, which brought it, teeth through with ease, and therefore prevented those alarming symptoms which so often attend dentition. The above singular case may be proved by applying as above, where the child may be seen.

AMERICAN PAPERS. NEW ORLEANS, A UGUST 5. Extract of a letter from Pensacola, dated July 29 : " General Gaines arrived here on Sunday last with suite, 13 officer., and his Lady. This day arrived a messenger from Washington, with dispatches from President Monro, approving of General Jackson's proceedings ; and informing Governor King .of his sending engineers to Pensacola; to fortify the Ba rancas and town." FROM THE NORFOLK DEACON OF AUGUST 4. FROM HAv.►NNAtt.--Captain Stephenson, of the British brig Navigator, arrived here yesterday from Port Moraat (Jamaica) informs, that on the 3d of August, about eight leagues to the eastward of Cape Antonio, he was brought to by Admiral Brion s squadron, consisting of two frigate-built ships, one of 20 and 'the other of 22 guns; a brig of 16 guns, and eight fine schooners. NORFOLK, AUGUST El. LATEST FROM NEW ORLEANS.—•-The ship Sea Fox, Fowler, of and for New York, sailed from New Or leans the 4th inst. and the Balize the 7th. Captains Cannon, Weatherstrand, Doctor J.W. king, and W. N. Harvey, came in the above vessel, but left her on Saturday off Cape Henry, and came up to this place yesterday in a pilot boat. By these Gentlemen, the keeper of the Stearn-boat Hotel Reading-room Books has received New Orleans Papers of the 3d and 4th instant.—These Gentlemen state, that New Orleans was more healthy than had been known at the same season for a number of years previous; business, however, was dull ; a large number of vessels were in the river, but laid up, as no freights could be pro cured, the produce of the country having been all shipped off. On their passage clown the river, spoke the schooner Commerce, ‘Nilliantf, hence for New Orleans, who informed them of the circumstance of his having been robbed off the Berry Islands, of 72 negro;:s ; passed also about fP..) vessel., all bound up, from northern ports, and having had very long pas sages; one ship in particular, Captain Bunker, had a passage of 56 days from, New York. Saw two ships and two brigs at the Balize, waiting a wind to get in. Spoke on the 18th, off the Tortugas, the br'g Calypso, Boddilly, from Savannah bound to New Orleans, with Slaves, out 14 days ; 27th, off Charles• ton, bound to that port, a schooner from Alexandria, ' could not learn her name. The notorious pirate Mitchell, who has lately been infesting the Mississippi with his barges, it was un derstood had provided himself at the Balize with a sloop mounting six brass pieces, and was cruizing off the Bahamas, with a view of doing business on a larger scale. ST. THOMAS, AUGUST P. There is little change in the market to windward. This island is remarkably healthy. West India pro duce is vary scarce---coiFee, sugar. and molasses, not to be had. The pros- ' oct., here are truly discourag- . ing, as there are 4500 barrels of flour afloat in this place, and no purchasers. American vessels are daily arriving here from the windwa:d with their cargoes, for v•hich they could not effect a sale in those ports, and after giving their cargoes away, arc returning to the United .States in ballast, as no Vest India produce can be had. The' last sales made here were for coffee, 23 dollars 50cts. per cwt.; sugar; 8 dollars .50 cts.; molasses, 40 cts.; rum, 51 cts. per gallon. The last sales of American produce effected here were at the following prices :—Flour, 11 dollars 50 cts. per barrel ; rice, , d Alars per cwt. ; herrings, '2 dollars per barrel ; od-fish, 4 dollars 50 cts. per box; leaf tobacco, 12 dollars and a halt per cwt.; rye meal, 6 dollars 50 cts. per barrel. FROM ST. BUITHOLOMEWS. An extract of a letter to a friend in this place says, ." I hare been to St. Bartholomew's, which is a depot for a set of rcbbers, and could get no offers for my cargo, but such as were payable in stolen goods, such as Brazil su? , ars. There were two privateers cruiz:ng off the'harbour, within gunshot, when I came out." PHIL ADELPIIIA, ♦UGUST se. BANKS trw.utz.—On Saturday List a crowd of people, about two hundred, assembled in the town of Elkton, Maryland, and demanded from the Bank specie for their notes. This being refused, the in dignation of the people was so violent that they were proceeding to tear down the banking-house. when a negociatiou was set on foot, which ended in the Bank promising to pay specie on the Ist of Serember. The price of slaves inVirginia has riicn from three and four hundred dollars, to six and seven hundred, owing to the demand for the new States. One Anson Smith, who has beer. imprisoned at Philadelphia on nine charges for counterfeiting Bank notes, was allowed bail in the sum of 15,000 ch litre himself; and security to the same amount. This being thought too low, and that he would end no stiff unity in obtaining it from his insptortance to the coun terfeiting gang, nineteen other commitments were PRICE L% ► ••CF. issued against him, for counterfeiting 1900 dollar bills of the Bank of Philadelphia. BOSTON, SEPTEMBER We learn, by a Gentleman from Scituate, that a schooner anchored off that place list evening under - very suspicious circumstances, and that early this morning five men landed from her, and took diffe rent directions suspicion being strengthened against them, they were apprehended, and one turned State's evidence, and informed that the crew had murdered the Captain and Mate, took possession of the vessel, and brought her off Scituate; and shared the mbney found on board her, and intended to abandon her.— In consequence of this information, persons were sent in different directions after the other men, who were apprehended in Hingham, and all of them seat to I Plymoutb gaol. Our informant understood the ves sel was loaded with cocoa, hides, logwood, &c. but did not learn to what nation she belonged'; but it was supposed she was a Ow to a Patriot Privateer; • She is a topsail schooner, amiPearzlita a largp-brailed 'or lug foresail. A letter from St. Thomas's, dated August 6:h, states, that the Patriot army on the Main is to be iv future commanded by five Lieutenant-Generals, viz. Par; Arismcndi, Il...rinuda% Gregor M'Gregor, and Morino. Bolivar Is President. General *Gregor is said to have ascended the Oronoco.with 600 Eng- . lish recruits. Several vessels had arrived from Eor land with munitions of war of all kinds. The cam paign will open in I).!cember next with a determina tion on the part of the Patriots to establish tile inde pendence of Venezuela Admiral Brion is said to have ordered two English Officers to be shot—Colo. , • nel Gilmore, and a brother of Colonel Campbell, who is at present in the United States on a missioa from Angustura, A British Officer has arrived at Trinidad front Venezuela, and announces the arrival in that pro vince of the eleven British Officers who were impri soned at Philadelphia last winter. They had joiner the Patriots. Mr. Clay's speech, delivered last Ses sion on the floor of Congress, had been translated into Spanish, and read at the head of the Patriot regiments. Extract of a letter from an Officer on board hi s Majesty's ship Ceirmun, off the Ilavattnah, Cuba, West luklies, dated August 21 :—" We have just cap tured a valuable Spanish ship for a bleach of the lis.d Treaty on the Slave 'ft :Lie; and have just xeceiveci orders to take her to Sierra Lcoce, and therefore are not likely to be in England before next y"ear," pirrscusicit, AUGUST it. Faexert COLONY IN . ThAAL—L.LeChartilis ! how romantic, how innocctt, how onsophisticted, are these modern French. Le Champs d'Asile I the fields of refuge, worda . worjty of Chatecasthriand.ia his happiest omic:ins, Oren Aiala,tiractas, and the hermit, in the bosom of an American forest, breathe around the primitive characteristics of sublimity and love. Such is the name given by a certain French con lony to a military establishment in the provincb of Texas, which will probably fall within our bounda ries. The members of this colony made a great nbisd about fifteen months ago ; they had, in fancy, fortried A perfect Eutopia, and built their capital, avhich, under the intlaencc of that kind of wild Republi canism which has more than once disfigured France, they called Demopolis. Their plan was most fasci nating, their constitution most liberal, and their co lony was to surpass every thing that has !•een thought of since the days of Plato, the systems of SirYlunnas Moore, and the Rev. Fenelon, and the eccentric Lee inclusive. The vine, the fig -tree, and the olive, wet e to bloom beside the 'orange, and the laughing scenes of the vintage were to be translated from the fields of Languedoc to the plains of Alabama. These de lusive dreams have vanished, and our Arcadian co. lony has suddenly been metamorphosed into a band of land-jobbers. We regret that Congress had not made the grant a conditional one. For our part, v..e have never entertained much confidence in these as sociations, where general officers and men of science are the pioneers. Government ought to encourage the emigration of this last class as much as possible, but we doubt whether giving them wild lands be the proper plan. We should Lawler offering this kind of property to the labouring classes of Irish and Cer • mans who may emigrate to our shores. This popu lation would suit our frontiers much better than the cohorts and military establishments of Messrs. L'Al• lemand and Co. This colony, since their arrival in Texas, have published a kind of constitution or ex pose of their system of Government. Among other things they promise to respect religion. As to this article we are a little sceptical. We had the honour of an acquaintance with many of these gentlemen, on their way to Orleans ; and, although their science, fondness for literature, and polished manners, left a pleasing impression on catr minds, and excited, at timer, all our sympathies, y e t we consider it impossible, that the same persons who actually made a jest of the whole Christian system in Pittsburg, can treat it with seriousness in the Champs d:Asile. We shall never forget these gay, singing gentry; as they danced through our country they were all animation ; but when they talk of respecting religion, the thing becomes ludicrous.-- Their favourite work, which some of them carried with them as Alexander did Homer, was Do Partly s pm of " The War of the Gods." This production, with due deference to Lady Morgan, is the mcer abaminable and horrible burlesque on the Christian doctrine that has been attempted, and could only have been published in the year eight of the French Republic, one and indivisible, the date of all the title-pages we have seen. However, WC wish this mi litary colony success; but, instead of cohorts and i arms, we recommend to them a little common sense as the best ingredient we know of in every institution. We also hope they will not bother their neighbours 1 with their ventese or their o: any other new fangled doctrine, all of wlrch we hold in aversion. 1 1 t 1 11° • I
