This preparation is so in nocent, so efficacious, 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, though there is no ap pearance of teeth, one bottle of the Syrup should be used on the gums, to open the pores.

H. From Ihe Giuoe. TIIE ELECTION. It b comes our duty to aunounc to th public, that we have leceived rctuius of the elections in a s ifiiciout number of the Stales to reiuh r the final result no longer doub.fil. G. n II orison, the standard b' aier of me Federal and Abolition pr te s, has b' en elected, if the process by ' ic-u;t nas neen orotignt about We shall endeavor, in due time, to give it the attention its importance demands, in reference to the purity of our elections, the preservation of our popular institutions, and the maintaiuance of the public morals. In this important duty we trust that we shall not be disappointed in a confident relianceon the powerful co-operation of the entire Democratic press of the country. Democratic Pennsylvania (for she is such now, as she ever has beet,) being, unfor.una'ely, the head quarters- of thit new sp c'u-s of voters, calLd p.'jJc lajeiV has given her vote to the standard bearer of Federalism, by a majority of from one hundred and fifty to two hundred and lilty in an aggregate vote of two hundred and eighty-two thousand. New York, where iu general our Democratic fiiend have discharged their duly with a spirit and energy deserving ot all praise, we. have lost by the blindness and fanaticism of the Antimasonic and Abolition factions in a few counties, called the infected dis trict. In other parts of the State, the Democracy have exhibited an increase sudieic it to h ive redeemed and rescued the Sluu: from the hands of the profligate .md corrupt caba! which now coiitioi ii, had th'- s wot-.!). 111 i). :,iih d in t tie counties nfiticd to.

And in all the S.at s, U.e honest De-morracv liave nooiy tliscn.irgel their duty. The ful is noi theirs In every Siate they have usiaiueil ti.eir usu d votes, and in most o: ihem greatly increased them. This proves that ttiere lias been no changes against the Administration, and that the .sound De mocracy of the country have stood fast by theii -principles, and nobly sustained the candidate who Ins proved himself so aide and honest an exponent of them. They iiave been beat n, but not conquered. At this vtry lime the Democratic party is more firmly united, and will poll more votes linn it ever did before, when it has been victorious. They have been beatei by a new description of voters, some hav ing flesh and bones, and others mere men ol' straw. The former have been rakce ana scraped from the sewers, jails and peui entiaries, who have b en called to gt iherat the log cabin rendezvous, and or ganized for the first time for political fic tion. The latter consist of pipe layers, illegal and fraudulent voters, who ban been trained and instructed by the Sievee- ses, the Kogerses, and the G lent worths to perpetrate frauds, by voting twice, changing their names and dress, going to different polls, putting in two votes, and j in everyway that the ingenuity of man uunry uas peen me cinet ag;en in prf diieinj; these ah iminnble frauds and enor- :nities, and millions have been expended mi this election. It is, however a mo -kery 'o call Ibis an eleclion. It is a result bro'i bout, not by the free action of the nipul r will, resulting from the popular nielligence, but in defiance of it. It is Mie fu st instance in our Republic of the friirnp'i of tlv power of money over the intelligence of the country. This co-it-si forms a new era in our poli'ical historv, ud has disclosed a source of dansrer to ur free institutions, that demands a re medy which, if not speedily provided, will provo fatal to our liberties. To provide that remedy, will present a new and most momentous issue, in support of which tiV whole Democracy of the country will ral ly as one man. Mr. Van Huron has been beaten, whits! he has received a popular vote probably exceeding by more than twenty per cent that by which he was elected in 1S3G, or win hie!i any of his predecessors received, This proves either that a new description of voters Inve been brought into the elec tioni, or that immense frauds have been practised. The vast increase of votes has. no doubt, proceeded from both sources These new species of voters have been mercenaries -the. hired, bribed, and pur ch ased wretches which the corruption fund has seemed for the VVhig ticket. Let the profligate leaders of these com bined fictions rejoice, and make the most of a victory obtained by fraud and cor ruption. Their triumph will be short. They are only gathering up wrath against the day of wrath. They will yet learn, that though profligacy and corruption may obtain a temporary triumph, the spirit of a free and moral people cannot be eas l overcome. There is a divinity within us that shapes our ends, rough hew them as we may. There is an overruling Provi dence that directs the affairs of men and of nations; and in public, as in private con cerns, seeming evils are often only the means of working out a more abundant and lasting good. And we firmly believe that the temporary triumph of the aristoc racy, effected by debauching and corrupt ing the most degraded of the people, will result in their more complete prostration and disgrace. Those w ho have been de ceived by their hollow pretensions, will now have an opportunity to test them by their acts, and to learn what their real principles and purposes are. The honest Democracy of the country have no reison to be discouraged. We will not now al lude to their course for the future, than to say, that this is no time for them to relax their vigilance or their exertions. They will not disband, but keep and improve their organization, and keep their arms in their hands. If, when in the majority, then constant vigilance was necessary to frustrate the schemes of the enemies of liberty, when those enemies are in power will there not be much more necessity lor their exertions and watchfulness? Whe ther in a majority or a minority, they have ever been the defenders of the Constitu tion, and of the rights of the States and the people. Nothing but their ceaseless vigi- i lance can now resist the mad schemes of J profligate factions, without even any pre . h nce of fixed principle, and with a mere ! nominal Executive, to be used as may suit their selfish purposes. Although a i minority, they can yet save the Constitu- j l ton and the country from taction and fana- tie-sm they can arrest the mad schemes af speculators who desire a Hank, and of the lanat ics who are nothing loath to break up ibis glorious Union. They can save the South, notwithstanding a portion of it, in a moment of infatuation, shooting wild ly fiom their spheres, have lot sight of their own interests, their own safety, and united with their most deadly enemies. In the distractions of those combined fac tions, each having their own objects in view , the Democracy alone can save the country. flow lo lay Pipe. The Philadelphia Spirit of the Times, makes the following appropiiatc remarks upon this subject, which until recently has attracted but little notice from the press, but which now calls forth all its energies, to explain the won dei ful effect it has upon the community, if the pipes" are only laid in accordance w ith the improved plan of Stevens, Badger, felfers & co. as in New York and Phila lelphia: 'Laying Pipe" is a phrase that has now acquired a definite and particular meaning ii was once understood to signify the mere ct of depositing properly under ground, eriain iron or lead conduits lor domestic .) opuses, but modern Philadelphia lexoco r,,phers have given it a definition for. . ry different and highly imposing char ic r. It is no disparagement to this re nark,to add, that sometimej the lexoco raphcrs alluded to, could scarcely writ their own names with propriety, and knew no more of orthography and syntax, gener- i ally, than tho famxis ;1 .ar:ied ina n did ui ocu.lm iiiGian ivs.es.

A ''foot of pipe," too, has chang ed its dictionary habit. It now mems from five to seven feet of hu.r.an flesh with a whig ticket in its dibits, . a countenance like the Bronze Horse, and a form capa ble of "whipping its weight in wild cats" af any moment, if the propriety of its ini quitous movements may be bro't in ques tion. To conclude, we arc no linger sur prised at the apparent whig gain which has been the result of the late elections in some of our democratic states. It is very evident the whig party has been "laying pipe" industriously all over the country, and with an indefatigability, which, in a better cause, would be admirable. Every "foot of pipe" has told to its advantage, and our injury; and hence we think that in future, in chronicling whig majorities, it would be most expressive, most exact, and most intelligible to say, federal ma jority so many feet of pipe. 1 I.IJJ'JI .

This colony is located in the south ern part of New Holland, and embnees Spencer's Gulf and the Gulf of St. Vin vv nt, with a compact tract of land tunning hack into the interior. As it hasbetn es 'ablishid upon new and determinate prin ciples, which may le;ul to a general and fixed system of color.iz t ion, a brie! his tory of it will not be unacceptable to our t ea J cis. A committee of capitalists was self-formed in 1S31, who applied for a royal charter to colonize the land in the vicieity of Spent er's and St. Vincent's Gulfs and the mouth of the Murray river. It was re fused. In 1S3 4, a Company was formed, who petitioned Parliament for the purchase of a portion of the district before contempla ted, with permission to colonize. A bill to this effect pas-ed into a law, and 500, 000 acres were sold to the Company for 125,000, or 5s. sterling per acr. The bill provided that 20.009 should be in vested by the Company in Exchequer bills, to secure against costs to the mother count-y; and that 35. 0C0 should he' paid to the commissioners of tlie Company for land before they were peimiUc-d to send out emigrants.
