JOHNSON'S AMERICAN SOOTHING SYRUP. f - PHIS infallible Remedy has preserved hundreds of _l_ Children when thought past recovery from Convulsions arising from painful dentition. As stomas the Syrup is rubbed on the Gums, the Child will be relieved, the Gums cooled, and the inflammation reduced. It is as :innocent as efficacious, tending to produce the Teeth with ease; and so pleasant, that no Child will refuse to let its Gums be rubbed with it. When Infants are at the age of four months, the S r hould be rubbed on the Gums; and Parents should e without the Syrup in the Nursery where there are • ng Children; for if a Child wakes in the night with pa* in the Gums, the Syrup immediately gives ease; ther preventing Convulsions, Fe vers, &c.—The great succ of this Medicine during the last Twenty-five Years has i ced unprincipled persons to imitate it, under the name American Soothing Syrup, and copying parts of Mrs. Job son's Bills, &c. Parents will, therefore, be very particular-to ask for JOHNSON'S AMERICAN SOOTH ING SYRUP, and to notice that the names-of BARCLAY and SONS, 95, Farringdon-street, London, (to Whom Mrs. Johnson has sold the recipe,) are on the Stamp affixed to each Bottle. [ADVERTISEMENT.] TO THE PUBLIC THE RIVAL PATENT FIRE PROOF SAFES! Messrs. Harrison and Co., the proprietors of Tann's patent for this district, feel that the public must have been highly amused .at the acrimonious balderdash which Messrs. Milner and Son have been giving to the world, through the medium of the Liverpool papers. The low scurrility which marks all the announcements that'have proceeded from them shows unmis takably bow galled Messrs. Milner and Son are at the produc tion of a:cheaper, better, and more universally admired article then their own, for the protection of books and other 'valuable documents against the possibility of injury by fire. People do not usually forget all the controversial courtesies of life Without a strong motive, and every one is enabled to see at a glance that the movement in the present case is one of the strongest that can influence weak-minded, and not very clear-beaded persons—namely, jealousy. The superior qualities of Tann's Fire-proof Safes .are driving Messrs. Milner's out of the mar ket ; and the decisive experiment which took place two months ago in the Islington market—the use of which was kindly granted by the corporation, and at which the mayor and a large number of intelligent and scientific gentle en were present— gave the finishing stroke to that deliriu rage and impotence under which Messrs. Milner and Son ve ever since laboured. Messrs. Harrison and Co. bar deem it necessary to call attention to the coarse adverti nent which Messrs. Milner are now inserting in the publ* prints. In that advertisement the invention of Messrs. ' nn, of London, is designated as " an impudent, reckle d unwarrantable infringement of Milner's patent." N ,:the first thing that strikes every sen sible man, in readir hisdeaunciation of afar superior article, is this—" why, if ere beinfringement, don't Messrs. Milner put it down ? by not appeal to the lave, which provides a remedy 7 Why threaten to proceed in Chancery against the buyer or user of Tann's Safes, and leave the manufacturers, the agents, and the vendors unscathed ?" This is the question to which Messrs. Milner have never yet replied. They have been repeatedly dared to commence pro ceedings ; they have always shrunk from the challenge. This attempt to frighten the timid purchaser of a better article is hl now becoming. stale; people see through it. As far back as °l4- 4 Ord e r February Messrs. Milner stated that they had commenced legal 1( 4 , er of „ 'hi W `" e Board. proceedings.

The trees were all that sheltered my infant limbs—the blue heavens all that covered me. I am one of Nature's children, I have always admired her ; she shall be my glory ; her features—her robes, and the wreath about her brow—the seasons—her stately ,oaks, and the evergreen—her hair—ringlets over the earth, all contribute to my enduring love of her ; and wherever I see her, emotions of pleasure roll in my breast, and swell and burst like waves on the shores of the ocean, in prayer and praise to Him who has placed me in her hand. It is thought great to be born in palaces, sur rounded with wealth—but to be born in nature's wide domain is greater still ! I was born sometime in the fall of 1818, near the mouth of the river Trent, called in our language,.bah-ge-dah-we-ge-wah-noong, while my father and mother were attending the annual distribution of the presents from the government to the Indians. I was the third of our family ; a brother and sister being older, both of whom died. My brother' died without the knowledge of the Saviour, but my sister experienced the power of the loving grace of God. One brother, and two step brothers are still alive. I remember the tall trees and the dark woods—the swamp just by, where the little wren sang so melodiously after the going down o' the sun in the west—the current of the broad river Trenk—the skip ping of the fish, and the noise of the rapids a little above. It was here I first saw the light; a little fallen down shelter, made of evergreens, and a few dead embers, the remains of the last tire that shed its genial warmth around, were all that marked the spot. When I last visited it, nothing but fur poles stuck in the ground, and they were leaning on account of decay. Is this dear spot, wade green by the tears of memory, any less enticing and hal lowed than the palaces where princes are born ? I would much more glory in this birth-place, with the broad canopy of heaven above me, and the giant arms of the forest trees for my s h e lt er , th an t o b e bo r n in palaces of marble, studded with pillars of gold. Nature will be fla tly° still, while palaee° shall decay and fall in ruins. Yes, Ningata will be Niagara thousand heuee I The I rginb° 7 ) I wro th over her brow, shall continCe as long as eburation.

A beautifully conceived design of the Resurrection, in tint, assimilating to sepea, is now on view at Messrs. Cuffly and Heighways. The shades are so beautifully light that many would doubt its being block printed. PROGRESSIVE SOCIETY OF JOINERS.—A meeting of this society was held last night in Mr. Tuton's room, Lime. street, which was crowded by parties interested in the society. Mr. Tindal Atkinson delivered a very effec tive address, and many additional members were enrolled. Some delay took place in the commencement of the pro ceedings, and we cannot therefore give the report which we had intended. WEST INDIA MAILS.—A new scheme for the West India mail packet service has been sanctioned by Govern ment to take effect on and after the 2nd of August, the days of despatch being the 2nd and 17th of each month, except when these days fall on a Sunday, when the de spatch will be in the one case on the evening of the Ist, and in the other on the morning of the 18th. THE BUILDING FOR THE EXHIBITION OF 1851.—The estimate of the contractors, Messrs. Fox and Henderson, for " use and wear," is £86,000 ; but if the building be comes the property of the public, the cost is to be £l5OOOO. There will be on the ground floor alone eight miles of tables. There will be 1,200,000 feet of glass, 24, miles of one desc r iptio n of g utter, and 218 miles of . " sash bar ;" and in the construction 4,000 tons of iron will be expended. EXTRAORDINARY PRICES FOR SHEEP.-Mr. Jonas Webb's sheep show at Babraham, Cambridgeshire, took place on the 12th instant. The Earls of Hardwicke and Chichester were present, and the agents of many other noblemen and leading agriculturists. The number of taps let was 59, at an average of £22 10s., the highest priced tup being hired by Lord Berwick for 64 guineas. d.ast year Lord Ducie hired one for 86 guineas, and this year he paid 52 guineas. A Mr. Stephens, from New York, was the hirer of one sheep at 35 guineas. After the letting, 300 gentlemen sat down to a cold collation, at which the Lord-Lieutenant presided. NOVEL PROCEEDING AGAINST A CLERGYMAN.—On Friday last, in the Ecclesiastical Court, York, four suits instituted against the Rev, T. Ibbotson, vicar of Garton, and perpetual curate of Ruston Parva, Skerne, and Low thorpe, for non residence without license, were heard. It appeared that the rev. defendant had on a former occasion been condemned in the forfeiture of three fourths of his revenue the year 1847 and the costs of the suit. The four suits before the Court on Friday were commenced for a like forfeiture for 1848. The de- fendant admitted the truth of the charge, and judgment passed against him for three-fourths of his income for that year and costs. The four livings are returned al £3ll.

THE LATE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. — Zachary Taylor was born in Orange County, Virginia, on the 24th November, 1786. While he was but a few months old, his father, Colonel Richard Taylor, who had distinguished himself in the war of the revolution, migrated with his family to Kentucky. He was one of the early pioneers. But ten years before, for the first time had the habitation of the white man been seen anywhere in the territory between the western boundary of Virginia and the distant Mississippi. With his rifle, even at the time of Colonel Taylor's arrival, the enterprising settler was compelled to dispute with the Tndian and the beasts of prey his title to th e so il. Whi lst young, t h e f u t ure pre sident aided his father in the labours of the field ; and this early exposure to the severity and vicissitudes of the weather, hardy habits, and homely fare, laid the founda tion of a constitution well adapted to the hardships he afterwards encountered. He attended schools in the winter months, whenever a school, however distant, was accessible, and in s ummer wor k e d on the farm. While he was yet under age, some movements in the west seemed to threaten the integrity of the union, and he eagerly en rolled himself in a troop raised to oppose the design. The excitement upon this subject soon subsiding, he returned to the labours of his farm, and to his studies, with a dis. position, however, to serve his country in arms much stimulated by what he had seen of mimic war. An elder brother, a lieutenant in the army, dying soon after, he was, through the influence of his relative, James Madison, appointed to the vacancy by President Jefferson, the 3rd of May, 1808. General Taylor no sooner entered the ser vice of his country than he exposed his life in her cause. By his defence of Fort Harrison against 'great odds, he saved a frontier from devastation. From that early ex ploit, as from a corner-stone, his fame gradually rose, as he weet gallantly on through a service of some forty years, ILO' his successful campaigns in Mexico —cam paigns that secured California to the United States—gavo him a reputation .extending to all ports of the world. el aim a writing first were exceeding., until at length he wrote one, regr stating that, in compliant' - • 'esk and otut warm, but gradually became cooler, his conduct, and he hid determined to break off the engagement ; and in a very short time the defendant married another lady. The first letter was dated the 29th of October, 1848.—The jury gave £4O damages to the plaintiff. MR. O'CoNNOR.-At Guildhall (London) Police-court on Saturday an application was made for a summons against Mr. Feargus O'Connor to recover the sum of £5O for an old lady aged ninety, whose deceased brother was 749 17 3 I one of the f n-tunate allottees in the National Land scheme, of which Mr. O'Connor was the sole director. The complainant applied to the secretary but got no re dress, and after waiting some considerable time for the money, she at length wrote to Mr. O'Connor at 34, Not ting-hill-terrace, Bayswater, who at once forwarded her the following worthless document, as it was written upon an unstarnpen piece of paper :—" I shall pay Mrs. Watson -f X5 O .his being the ne sum of in six months from tht,, .ate, amount of a transfer at LowbandQ: in the Land Company Dated this 19th of July, 1850.—FEARGUS O'CoNNoa." Immediately on receiving this document Mrs. Watson scraped together a little money and came to London, where she was robbed while passing up Fleet-street of every shilling she had in the world. She then. after some trouble, ol tlined an interview O'Connor, bill the result was unsatisfactory. had no jurisdiction in the car and the applicant left the court ate said he as the amount was £5O, A MANUFACTURER IN DISTRESS.—We often find that men who have accumulated large fortunes from small be ginnings, when they have passed the middl ge of life, imagine themselves in poverty. A singular case ha occurred, for the truth of which we can vouch large manufacturer, residing in the wilds of Yorkshire, one day called on the relieving officer of the district and asked relief. Appreciating instantly the state of mind in which the well-known applicant was, the officer replied, "Certainly, Mr. -; call to-morrow, and you shall have it." Satisfied, the applicant retired, and the officer hastened to the gentleman's son, stated the case, and ex pressed his opinion that the relief demanded sh " Give it given. said the son, " and we'll return you the money." Accordingly, this wealthy manufacturer next day received relief, and for many weeks regularly applied for his five shillings relief; until, at last, the hal lucination vanished and his mind was completely restored. It is possible that this little anecdote contains a valuable hint as to the proper treatment of monomaniacs.—Albion. Speaking of the chancel carpet of St. Stephen's, West minster, founded by Miss Coutts, the Ladies' Companion says, it will to many seem like the return of the times when queens wrought banners and embroidered holy vest ments, when they learn that this carpet has been wrought in squares of Berlin wool by forty ladies of rank and dis tinction ; the border by the Lands of the little girls in the school, which has also been founded by Miss Burdett Coutts, in Westminster. Among others who have con tributed, we may name the Duchess of Northumberland, the Marchioness of Ely, and Miss Burdett Coutts herself. The design consists of shields and heraldic devices (framed as it were in tile-work), alternating with panels, in which alternately thefleur-de-lis and the Tudor rose are worked on a blue ground. The effect of this mass of gorgeous colours, intermixed with the least possible shading or at tempt at relief, is rich and excellent. The ground of the border is green. The arms on the several shields are in their proper heraldic colours. . . . It is impossible not to dwell on the artistic superiority of such occupations as this over the pastimes of shapeless shoemaking, casting bread-seals, fabricating ill-proportioned alum-baskets, and other silly diversions, in which, by turns, the ladies of England have cheated themselves ipto the idea of doing something useful. LORD BROUGHAM AND THE SCOTCH BARRISTER.— In an appeal case in the House of Lords on Friday, Mr. Robertson, an advocate of the Scotch Courts, was arguing an appeal case, and in the course of the remarks said, that it would be necessary that he should go step by step through the whole of the arguments which had been ad- sauced Dy his learned friends, as well as into the various parts of the case itself, and, therefore, he must press for his lordship's particular attention.—L or d B roug h am. What—what's that, Mr. Robertson ?—what do you say ? I always give my best attentioi ; I aways give my atten tion to the cases which come before me ; I have given my attention to this case, as I do to all other cases. I give my best attention to any case which may come before me, just as much as any other judge, and I pay, in common with all the other judges, every attention to the argu ments of counsel. But, Mr. Robertson, when I find that a learned counsel thinks proper to stop to go over and over his arguments again and again, even up to as many as ten times sometimes, why then, when he comes to about the seventh time, even though he may vary his argument in words, I turn my attention to some other part of the case.—Mr. Robertson must humbly trusted that his lordship would have the kindness to meditate and to deliberate before he made up his mind in such an im portant case.—Lord Brougham. Mr. Robertson but - onP - - member of ..ne bar, but ..e w _ was a member of the bar in Scotland, would have thought of saying such a thing. In all my experience I have never met with any thing like it; and if the Scotch judges think it proper and right—and it is a most astonishing fact that they should do so—if the judges in Scotland think it proper to allow themselves to be so addressed, all I can say is, that I shall not permit it here. The arguments were then proceeded with to their close. PRESIDENT TAYLOR'S LAST MOMENTS.—President Taylor was attacked with the first symptoms of the dis ease, which terminated in his death, on the evening of the 4th of July. On the morning of that day be was apparently in his usual health. In company with his family, and several Heads of Department, he attended the public celebra'ion at the National Monument. After great exposure to the sun, and considerable fatigue, be returned to the Presidential Mansion in a state of partial exhaustion. Calling for refreshment, and saying that he was very hungry, he partook freely of cherries and wild berries, accompanied with copious draughts of iced milk and water. His appetite at dinner was good, and he indulged in it without any unusual precaution. Within an hour he was seized by cramps in the stomach, which soon took the form of cholera morbus. He was unwilling to avail himself of medical aid. believine that the pttnpy arras temporary and would yield to his sstrongconstitution. Towards midnight he grew worse , an d it was evident that his condition was highly dangerous. He remained in this state, without any important change, until Saturday evening. On Monday morning the disease, which had made rapid encroachments on his frame, assumed the form of typhoid fever, and from this time there was but a faint hope of his recovery. During Monday night the greatest anxiety prevailed. Before el even o ' clock, all hope of saving his life was dispelled. The morning of the 9th dawned, but brought no relief. At a few minutes before ten it became evident that his time was short. Prayers were offered by the clergyman in attendance. After tasting a glass of water, he was informed that he could not live many hours. Ile then asked for his family, who were in adjacent room. They were sent for, and soon entered. The interview was overwhelming, Mrs. Tailor prostrating herself at the bedside, and her children cling ing around her, with sobs and groans expressive of their agony. He was now free from pain, and, on being asked whether he feit comfortable, replied, " Very; but the storm in passing has swept away the trunk." Soon after, adverting t o th e state of the country, he said, " lam about to die : I expect the summons soon. I have en deavoured to do my duty faithfully, and I regret nothing but to leave m y friends." These were his last audible words. Ile attempted- again to speak to his wife, but his voice failed him. Th e p h ys i c i an a d m i n istered a cordial, but all was over, lis bre a the& his last without a struggle. COMMERCIAL AND MONETARY REPORT. Monday Night. Brighter anticipations being generally entertained of the approaching meetings, the share market has improved during the two or three last days of the week ; and a large business has been done at advanced prices. This day's quotations are :—Chester £22 shares, 111 dis. ; Leeds Fifths, 9 819 dis. ; London Stock, 1101 ; Ditto Quarters, 13/9 p. ; Ditto Fifths, sp. ; Ditto C Quarters, 14- p.; Sheffield and Manchester, 15A ; Midland 50' s , 2 4 i 6/3 ; Dover, No. 4, 41; Newcastle Preference, 54 d. ; Dutch Rhenish, 2 3/9. _ _ _ . , The latest report received on 'Change to-day was to the effect that the Schleswig-Holsteiners had been beaten. This affair has ceased to agitate the public mind to the same extent as formerly. The question has decidedly narrowed itself, and is regarded with much less apprehen sion as regards the peace of Europe. There is a good feeling in business generally, and as a large consumption is going on, the deliveries weekly are on an extensive scale. There is more enquiry for Sugar during the last day or two, but nothing of any moment has been transacted until to-day, when a cargo of brown Pernams was sold at 17s. 6d, 1000 bags of Bengal at 395. 9d. to 415., and 150 hhds. of Barbadoes at 365. 6d. to 41s. 6d. In Tea there is also a fair inquiry, more particularly for the middling descriptions of Congou, which realise from ls. to Is. 3d. per lb.: these kinds have not advanced in proportion to the lower sorts. 250 bags Bengal Linseed have been sold at 465., and 1100 bags of Rapeseed at 425. 6d. to 445. 6d. 300 bags of Saltpetre, 61 per cent. refraction, at 275., which is 6d. dearer. 1000 bales of Jute sold at 16s. sd. to 18s. 10d., for middling to good, making the market again rather dearer. The Cotton market has advanced A-cl. since the Circular, so that prices are now upon a par with the height of the market ten days ago. On Thursday the sales were 6000 bales, of which 1000 were for export, and 1500 on specu lation, and purchasers were in the market ready to ope rate largely in the event of any decline; on Friday, how ever, as the demand was more genera l from the trade, speculators, and exporters, prices became steadier, with a business amounting to 7000 bales; but the principal portion of the advance ha s b een realised to-day, owing to a considerable extension of the demand, transactions having reached 15,000 bales, of which 2000 were on ex port, and 6000 on speculation. The late heavy rains have caused some further anxiety be felt for the safety of the crops, particularly in the London, where the rains have been - heavy, and a little grain is reported to have been laid. The consequent ex citement has produced a pretty general rise throughout this country of about Is. per qr. on Wheat. We are assured, however, that any serious fears are at present premature; that the grain crops, generally, have a healthy appearance ; and that, with a return of settled weather, the harvest will be abundant. Notwithstanding the rumours about the appearance of the blight, potatoes are brought forward by growers into most of the Irish mar kets in large quantities, and free from taint as yet. A most trustworthy correspondent, who dates Cork, 27th July, states that the liberal nature of the deliveries does not seem to arise from any apprehension of their suffering by disease; prices are moderate, and will be more so ; and the poor people are now purchasing them as the eapest at neighbourhood ; he I S also s, and highly of the crop in tt seen a good deal of the country in other ilistrictE everywhere the potato gardens were looking well good prospect of abundance. The present plentiful tion of tht Lt article is small just now, and speculatOrs are chary of operating to any extent. In London, how.. ever, the reports of the potato rot have had more effect, and some parties have made considerable purchases both for cargoes on the way and for parcels to be shipped within the next three months. Fully 20,000 qrs. were thus con tracted for last week, at prices ranging as follows :-275. to 28s. for Galatz ; 265. 6d. to 275. for Bulgarian and 4- I - Great excite- trdou ; and 253. 6d. to 265. for Ibraila. ment has prevailed in the Liverpool trade since Frid last, (owing to unfavourable weather,) and at 0 - - the week large purchases of Whpi close of speculation ; floating able at improved prices advance of fully ld. per bushel was obtainable; to however, less activity exists, but prices remain the same oes have been also easily and for Wheats on the sr Flour scarce. and rather dearer firm in price, has been in but rery moderate demand Other articles have commanded little attention, and therefore nominally the same.

Advices received on Thursday from Oporto confirm the opinion that the coming vintage is likely to be deficient. Brandies are more in demand, but the market is firm. Not anything of importance has been done in Rums. American Provisions.—The demand for Beef is still limited ; but there has been rather more inquiry for Por' for Ireland since our last, without leading, however. much business.

At Stafford assizes, a young man named William Chadwick, was found guilty of the wilful murder of Samuel Tunnicliffe, great uncle of his wife, by adminis tering poison to him. On his death the nrisoner and hie wife entered into possession of his property sentenced to be hung without hope of mercy. He was AND MURDER.—On Friday at Edinburgh, a man named Bennison, was convicted of this double crime. He married his first wife in 1838, and his second a year after. With these women he alternately lived for short periods; and in April last he poisonedibis second wife, whose maiden name was Jane Hamilton. He was sen tenced to death without the smallest hope of mercy. Cuarovs CASE.—At Bodmin assizes, on Saturday, Sir Samuel Spry, Bart., late high sheriff of the county, was indicted for an assault on Mr. F BIGAA ne, the editor of the WeBt Briton newspaper, in which appeared some severe reflections on the conduct of the defendant, who had pre sided at a Protectionist meeting. The editor was soundly horsewhipped by the baronet for the remarks.

ARRIVAL OF THU CITY OF GLASGOW.—The screw steam-ship City of Glasgow, Captain Mathews, arrived at Glasgow on Sunday morning, from New York, after a tine passage of fourteen days twelve hours. She brought eighty-seven passengers, who speak in high terms of the qualifications of the vessel in her completion of a rapid and delightful voyage. It is a remarkable and curious coincidence that this noble vessel should have performed her passages with such singular regularit from New York occupying fourteen days her last voyage from Glasgow was fourteen days x hours; whilst --- out, am 1 fourteen days twelve hours home.
