ton, and Is sure TO regulate the bowels. De-
pend upon 1t mothers, Il will give rest to your
selves, and relief and health to your infants
We have put up and sold this article for over 10
years, and can say in confidence and truth of it,,

our reputation for the fulfllment Of what We
here declare. In almost every instance where
the infant is suffering from pain and exhaustion,
relief will be in 10 or 20 minutes after the syrup
is administered. This valuable preparation is
the prescription Of one of the most experienced
and skillful nurses in New England, and has
been used with never failing success in thou

5. A seam thus formed is more elastic than
any Other made by sewing machine, and is
consequently very valuable in all goods that are
to be washed and stretched under the iron.
g. The machine is adapted to all varieties Of
fabrics, serving each equally well, and requiring
no adjustment for any kind Of sewing, other
than the adaptation of needles and thread.
Z. 1t is more easily kept in order than any 9TH
er machine, and need not be taken apart to be
oiled.
g. The machine sews common spool cotton,
silk and linen thread with equal facility.
0. The machine is so simple that an intelli-
gent child Of ten years can readily learn TO ope-

 Mr. Wigfall said they may talk about the Helper book, but Helper had never ut tered anything so slanderous against the South as the sentiments uttered bya south- ern Senator on this floor What black republican ally had told the Senator that the South wanted to make war on Mexico? It was islander. They have enough to do to take care of themselves. Mr. Wigfall then paid high and eloquent tribute to the Senator from Mississippi Mir. Davis.) The Senator from Tennessee Mir Johnson) had attacked him MT. Davis) in his ab- sencc. If the Senator from Mississippi had been here he would have answered the Senator from Tennessee, sLord August thou hast lied" Cloud applause in the galleries
 MT, Chandler, (republican, of Michigan. moved that the galleries be cleared.
 The President Mir Foote in the chair) ordered that the galleries at the right n("men's gallery'' be cleared. It was done.
 MT. Wigfall proceeded. He said tho South had no desire to make war, but it intended to live under such government as it saw ft.- Six States had gone out be- cause they chose to do so, and had revoked the treaty called the constitution, though they might be willing to make another. He claimed that the South had mine of wealth in cotton, and gave picture of the destroyed commerce of the North if the ports are blockaded, which will be consid- cred an act of war. A vessel with flag of thirty-three stars will be fired on if 1t comes into port; carrying the flag with the stars which they have plucked thence. will be considered an insult. He quoted from the New York Tribune's notices of Mir. Johnson's speech, and contended that the Senator from Tennessee always had been seeking popular applause.
