Prof. Morse, fifteen years ago, in letter to
the then Secretary Of the Treasury, the Hon.

success of the Atlantic Telegraph:
"The practical inference from this law is
that telegraphc communication on the
electromagnetic plan may with certainty be
established across the Atlantic Ocean. Start.

A WORD TO PARENTS ABOUT ROBERTS coLIC MIXTURE FOR INFANTS

We, as sole agents for supplying the Trade, will take the liberty of saying that from our own per- sonal experience and knowledge, ROBERTS COLlt: MIXTURE FCR INFANTS is one of the most val,, able preparations for the purpose for which it s il tended, that we are acquainted with. We have used it for years in own families and recommend it to our connections. friends and ncighbors It !. very prompt in afordng relief and is decidedly pre- terable to all other preparations of the knd from the
 fact that it does not produce those very deleterious consequences that follow the exhibition of other remedies containing Paregorc, Laudanum. Godfrey's Cordial, &c The practice of dosing children and infants with strcng opiates be too strongly condemned, and when the practice shall have been done away with there will be less of mortality among them, and instead of weak, sickly cross and puny- looking children, fat, chubby and laughing little faces will greet us every side. In families whcIs remedies of the kind are obliged to be rcsorted to- we would advise trial of this one.
