A REAL BLESSING TO MOT lIER S. THERE is not, perhar, in the whole MAteria Me dica any one remedy which so effectually relieves the pain of a suffenng patient as the AMERICAN SOOTH ING SYRUP. Who can watch the writhing tortures into which a lovely inf.:nt is often convulsed during the period of dentition, without feeling sym pathy for its sufferings? and who would hesitate to procure a re medy, when a remedy r.o be found, which is obvious by the effec tual relief 'afforded in so many distressing cases which are daily coming to the notice of Mrs. Jonsson? Therefore, Mothers ought never to be without tile AMERICAN SOOTHING SYRUP in the nursery ; for if a child awakes in the night with pain, by only rubbing the gums with a few drops of the Syrup, it will immedi ately open the pores, heal the gums, and there by prevent fevers and convulsions; for should it come in competition with any other dis. order, it often destroys the mother!. brightest hopes.

FLUID EXTRACT OF SARSAPARILLA._ TN this Prepaiation are concentrated all the Medici- A. nal Properties of the Sarsaparilla Root, even to a perfect satu ration of the Menstruum with which it is prepared. To such Per sons, therefore, who, from various causes, would experience great inconvenience, or with whom it would be utterly impossible to prepare the Decoction, the FLUID EXTRACT, which poisesses the advantages of portability and of keeping in any climate, will bn found a most desirable mode of employing this much esteemed Me- divine.—The Diseases in which it has proved most beneficial are those of the Skin, such as the Scorbutic Affections, Eruptive Dis eases, Secondary Symptoms, &c. arising from a diseased state of the System-at large. It may be taken either alone, or combined with water, rendering it of the same strength as the Decoction.

AGRICULTURF.. NEW SOUTH WALES. An Agricultural Snciety was instituted Ia New South \Vales on the sth of July, 1822, and, as ape.trs by the President's Address, has not only flourished during that short interval, but " was not formed a single month be fore it was wanted." The Patron of the Society is his Excellency Sir T. Brisbane, Governor of the Colony ; its Vice-Patron, Frederick Goulburn, Esq. Colonial Se cretary. The President is Barron Field, Esq. Judge of the Supreme Court. There are Corresponding Members, a General Committee, a 13uilding Committee, a Pre mium Committee, a Horticultural. Committee, Sabscri hers, and in fact ttll the tteces...a-y adjun;ts of such an Institution ; and this Institution, together with numerous other establishments, indicative of an advanced state of society, is now flourishing on a spot where, less than forty years ago, the naked savage roamed, sole lord of its inhospitable shores. Our lie.ideis will peruse with interest the following extracts from the President's first address, whether that interest be excited merely from the recollections con nected with those who hold official situations in the colony, or have gone thither as flee settlers, or from the more philosophical reflection of what may be the future condition of a country where the English lan guage and English customs are destined to be preserved perhaps for ages: I. We have had the pleasure of welcoming many most respectable free settlers in the course of the Fast year ; but I hope we shall receive twenty times the number next year. The fine settlements of Hunter's River, Bathurst, Camden, and Argyle, have been libe rally thrown open by our local Government; and I was happy (in looking at the map of Hunter's River the other day) to seethe whole hanks, and even some of the back land, coloured with names. One of the mat skilful and intelligent members of our General Commit tee, who has manufactured the best cheese yet seen in the Colony, has removed his family to Baihurst.— Other respectable settlers are following his example; and I find we have increased the number of our subscribers during the past year to twenty-one. We shall doubtless see many mote free settlers in this country, now that the Parliamentary emigration to the Cape of Good Hope has failed, as soon as our Commis sioner of Inquiry's Report has fixed the future policy and Government of the colony, and when the advan tages which New South Wales possesses over Van Die men's Land come to be more universally and correctly known. We can have no 111 wi!l to that Dependency : on the contrary, we benefit by her prosperity. But it is important that emigrants, from so vast a distance as Great Britain, should not be ruined by disappointment. Of the superiority of New South Wales over Van Die men's Land, I am decidedly convinced, in some degree fiom personal observation, and much more from au thentic information. But Van Diemen's Land has gotten the name at home ; and it always takes many years to put down false pretensions, and to make known true ones. " Upon t rubjrct so vitally important to the pro sperity of the Colony as the exportation of fine wool, I am truly happy to report, that there went home from this Settlement alone, during the past year, 726 bales, or 181,500 pounds of wool, besides a small quantity, chiefly of lambs' wool, which remains to be sent with the next shearing. At only is. 9d. per pound, clear profit, this will amount to nearly 16,0001. sterling. No thing can chew the superiority of our wool over that of Van Diemen's Land inn stronger light than the follow ing extract from a London Commercial Report, dated 20th September 1822 : _ _ 140 bides wool from Van Diemen's Land, 4d. to 1 td. per lb. (Two lots 2s. 2d. to 2s. 7d.) 13 hzles wool from New South Wales, 2s. 4d. to 31. 4d. per lb. " Be ides the increastd Australia:l capital embarked in whaling since the repeal of our oil duty, and in sealing, our cedar and other snip timber, having Leen relieved from duty by an Act of Parliament consequent upon Mr. Bigge's Report, has been Ibund to alhWer the ex portatif,n to England, and a Oils is now going home entirely laden therewith. In the event of war with the Northern Powe , s, our timber would become still more valuable. The Purveyor of the Navy Board reports very highly of some of it, particularly the stringy bark. ‘. Our Prospectus, which introduced the able papers of one of our Vice-Pi e:idents, Dr. Townson, has been published and diffused in considerable numbers, both here and at home ; and fifty copies of it have been sent to all parts of the globe, enclosed in a circular let ter, request;ng the contribution of foreign horticultural productions ; for I have the pleasure to report, that we have engra:ted on our Society an Horticultural Branch, with a small separate subscription.
