FOR CHILDREN TEETHING,
which greatly facilitates the process of teethng, by
softening the gums, reducing infammation-will al
lay all pain and spasm odic action, and is TO REQ u
LATE THE 30 Wells.
Depend upon it, mothers 1T will give rest to your
selves, and Reliefand Health to your infants.
We have put up and sold this article for ten
years, and say in confidence and truth of it, what
have been able to say of any other medicine
never has it failed in single instance to effect
CURE when timely used. Never did we know an in
stance of dissatisfaction by any who has used it.
On the contrary, all delighted with its operations,
and speak in terms of highest commentator of it's
magical effects and medical virtues. We speak in
this matter "wHAT WE KNOW, after ten years ex-
perience and pledge reputation for the fufment
of what we here declare. In almost every instance
where the infant is suffering from pain and exhaus-
ton, relief will be found in fifteen twenty minutes
after the syrup is administered.
This valuable preparation is the prescription OF
one OF the most Experienced and Skilful Nurses In
New England, and has been used with never failing
success in thousands of cases.
1t not only relieves the child from PAIN but invig
crates the stomach and bowels corrects acidty and
gives tone and energy to the whole system. 1t will
almost instantly relieve Gripping in the Bowels and
Wind Collie, and overmore Commissions, which, if not
speedily remedied, end in death. We believe it the
best and surest remedy in the world in all cases of
DYSENTERY and DIARRHGA in Children, arising
from teethlng, or from any other cause. We would
say to every mother who has child suffering from
any of the foregoing compaints-do not let your
own preJudlces nor the Prejudices of Others stand
between your suffering child and the relief that will
be sure-yes, absolutely sure-to follow the use OF
this medicine, if timely used

IMPROVED
INSTRUMENT FOR SURVEYING.

=
HE subscriber desires to call the attention of the
i public to an IMPROVED INSTRUMENT FOR
SURVEYING AND CALCULATING AREAS in.
vented and patented by Col. JAMES M. LILLEY, OF
Staunton, Va.
This instrument consists of semi-circular plate,
with neede-bo attached to the diameter, and the
and movable limb or alidade attached to the centre
of the plate, with yerniers at both ends; thus the
bearing of line can be read for any number of de-
grees minutes.
the alidade traverse table of lines instead of num-
bers, which gives at once the latitude and departure
of any course and dissan run.
The table also answers the purpose for ascertaining
heights and distances the required distance is read
from the plate without the trouble of referring to the
logarithmic tables aca lass
1t gives the horizontal measurement of the lines of
a survey and when there is local attraction, the
lines ban be traced without using the needle, there
being two pair of sights, enabling the surveyor to
form at once the angle required by the bearings of
the courses.
The variation of an old line is easily calculated on
it, and for such work leveling for mill races or
draining land it answers every purpose OF the level
There is an attachment for solving oblique trianges
which gives the base and perpendicular of the TRAN
GLE from which the be obtained very readl-
"; and it also gives the bearing and distance OF the
closing line in division of land.
The instrument can be used with either the sights
or telescope. Address, R. D. LILLEY,
Staunton, Va.
ms instrument Is IN use at the University OF
and at the United States Military Academy at West
Point. The following certificates are given by the
Professors of Mathematics at these Institutions:

have carefully examined Col. Lilley's new instru-
ments for surveying plotting &c. and do not hesitate
to pronounce them ingenious, simple and useful contri
vances. They are, indeed, calculating mechines for

an immense amount of time and labor. can most
cheerfully recommend them to every practical Sur

departure of course, will much labor in the
computation of the area of survey.
