MADAME GIRAUD'S WEANING LINIMENT, for reducing the Milk when Children are taken from the breast, for Milk Abscesses, and all kind of Inflammations, Bruises, and Turnouts to which the Breast is subject. This is a practice too well known to Mothers and Nurses to need any comment. It is also well known that it frequently proves very tedious and trouble some to reduce its natural secretions ; a variety of applications have been resorted to for that purpose ; most of these Compositions are in their operation very slow, and frequently very unpleasant. Ma dame sitar LINIMANT will be found to be a speedy, safe, and ef fectual application for the above purposes. Let the breast contain what quantity of milk it may, in the space of three or four days it will entirely disappear, and the breast become soft and supple.

DEMERARA. Letters and Papers from Demerara to the 26th of December were received yesterday. The Cato transport, with 200 men of the 933 11cgi rnent, arrived there on the 18th. On the expiration of the Christmas holidays, they were to proceed to Bar badoes. The militia continue to do duty in George Town, and the red flag was still flying, on which ac count the greater part of the warehouses were closed ; but business was beginning to revive, and the whole of the Colony was tranquil, with the exception of the Eastern part, the spot where the insurrection first broke out, and the cause of which is explained in an extract from a letter quoted below. Subjoined will also be found extracts from the Guiana Chronicle of the 17th of December, among which is a letter from Lord Ba thurst to the Governor of Demerara, on the subject of the insurrection. EXTRACE OF A LETTER DATED DEMERARA, DEC. 25. " It was fully expected here that the late revolt of the negroes would have made a se: ions sensation in Eu rope, and materially checked the confidence and credit of the merchants in England. The looked-for Proclama tion in the name of the King has at length appeared in print, but it is couched in such indecisiw, nay, a rnbi. guous - terms, that we are all convinced it will not have the least beneficial effect on the minds of the negroes. " The promised assistance of military Grace by Go vernment has ended in disappointment, as we have now to petition fin• a detachment of those which, though anchored before the river, were immediately ordined to Barbadoes, and the merchants; consequently, who have, all through the progress of the late insurrection per formed military duty, will be compelled, to their great 'inconvenience, to continue to do so. " At the publication of the Governor's Proclamation, by which the negroes on the east coast (where the in surrection commenced), are forbidden to dance daring the Christmas holidays, they have behaved in a very disorderly manner, and declared that they would dance in spite of the Governor's order. At plantation Naba clis, thirty-nine have been confined in the socks ; and that riotous spirit is so prevalent on that coast, that re gular troops have been detached there to keep the ne groes in awe till the holidays are over."
