To .Mothers and JS'urscs. fllHE passage of the Teeth through the gums produces troublesome and dan gerous symptoms. It is known by moth ers that there is great irritation in the mouth and gums during this process. The gums swell, the secretion of saliva is in creased, the child is seized with frequent and sudden fits of crying, watching, start ing in the sleep, and spasms of peculiar parts, the child shrieks with extreme vio lence, and thrusts its fingers into its mouth If these precursory symptoms are not spee dily alleviated, spasmodic convulsions tmi I yersauy vmr, mu mjoii cause tiie dissolution oi tne iniani. it mothers who have their little babes afflicted w ith these distressing symptoms, would apply Dr William Evans's Celebrated Snnihiu" Syrup, which has preserved hundreds of infants when thought past recovery, from being suddenly attacked with that fatal t malady, convulsions. y This infallible remedy has preserved hundreds of Children, when thought past ! recovery, from convulsions. As soon as . the Syrup is rubbed on the gums, the child , will recover. 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. Parents should never be without the Syrup in the nursery where there are young children; for if a child t wakes in the night with pain in the the Syrup immediately givesease by open . ing the pores and healing the gum-!; there by preventing Convulsions, Fevers, &.

Elect. ivc nouccii in our paper of yesterday the opan manner in which Mr. Chv of Km tucky had superseded General Harrison, having delivered his I mo crural P. chalked out the whole plan of his adminis tration, and announced a palled session of Congress for the ensuing spring. Thi was a complete supersession of the President elect. Hut things did not stop there. Yes terday another supersede,-, in the person of Mr. Webster, appeared, and also announ ced a called session, but for a different rea son from tint given by Mr. Clay. Mr. 0, reason wis tlienOn-repe.il of the Constitu tion 1 Treasury; Mr. Ws the nun imposi tion of new taxes, csp.-cially on silks, to pay the new debt which he alleged to ex ft. If taxisnrc not laid to meet this new debt, he sivs Congress will he called to gether. Now, Mr. W. Lnu.vs that n.. taxes will be laid to meet the new debt, be cause there is no new debt to be nut; eon eq icntly the annuncla'ion for the railed session is absolute and uncoudiiion .1, and in evidence that Mr. XV. as well as Mr. C. assumiMjrthc roins of Administration. In calling for the imposition of new tax es to meet a new debt, Mr. XV. has several objects in view, which it is well enough to point out at once. His fi,st oojet, then, is to disgrace the AdminUi at ion by fast ening upon it the imputation of having created a public debt; his second, to dis grace them by making thorn lay taxes at the moment of quilting office; the third, to make an ex-ess of revenue, so that the land revenue may go to the British inpay ment of State debts; the fourth, to accom plish the silk speculation which has been for years on foot. This latter reason is an imperious one, and comes from the great capitalists who have imported fifty millions of silks free of duty, and now wish Con gress to place a duty on further importa tions, in order to place a profit often or twenty millions ol dollars in the pockets of the present silk holders. Of these cap italists, and their speculating schemes, Mr. VV. is the natural organ, and will have U do their bidding at his called session, if no! done now. He is, therefore, p-iriicularly anxious to have it done now, both because the silk capitalists are tired of waiting for the consummation of their speculation, and are quite importunate to clutch a brilliant profit, and because, by doing it now, the odium of ministering to th.s speculation, and imposing new taxis to raise a fund for plunderers of all sorts, (.-specially jobbers and claim purchasers of all dcirrecsA wdl be spared to the new Administra'ion, and will f .11 nnnn tt, . r -"" uhl i'iiik uul ui power. For the iesl, Mr. W's spc'ch w; s a law) er's argument to prove the Covem- ment to be in debt an armmenl disproved by the report of the Secret aiy of the Trea- sur, and by the fact that this cry of deht lias oeen Kept upsinco 1837, and lound to Me false at the end of cvervvear. iheTrra- sury notes being always naid when due. and only a fraction of then) now outstand ing. One praise we must accord lo Mr. Web st r. lie did not imitate the blackguar dism of Mr. Clay. He did not compare the defeated Democracy to "a condemned criminal, stand-ng under the gallows, with a rpe round his neck, and the cart ready to he driven off."" Mr. XV. though endeavoring to fas' en a false charge on the Administration, and playing into ihe hands of speculators and plunderers, was still a bove the swagg rcr. It rcquirt d the gen tleman whom Mr. Preston was wont lo tyle the Prince of hl.ickgu -mis the Ho mer of blackguards the Thcrsites of I he Senate; it required this gentleman to com pire Mr. Van Hurco'3 adminisliation to v condemned criminal, standing under the gallows, with a rope round his neck, awl ihe cart ready to be driven off." The Called Session. In the concludinj: part of his speech on Thursday hist, Mr Wright give a killing reply to Mr. eh .iter's argument for a called session. Aftei proving that there was no necessity for it, he went futther, and pledd himself nd his political friends, to keen the. annro- pria lions with in the in cornel This w a a killing answer. Jt let I Mr. Vebstr nearly speechless. He attempted some small reply, but avoided commit ing hi. partv lo the same policy.

The Senate is nrlnetnrdlv engaged in discussing a resolution submit ted by Mr. Clay, for repealing the Inde p?ndcnt Tieasury law.

Treasury h'.port.Wc publish to day a portion of the Treasury report on the state of the finances. It is a document ol a good de.d of interest. It will be seen that the value of exports for the year en ding September 30, last, amounted to ;3 1. i 1, 5 7 1,950, which is larger, notwith standing the low price of all the products exported, than the highest amount of ex ports known in our history. Of this a mount, o.dy Sl7,S09,33i was of goods of foreign oiigin, making an amount of 113, 7G2.617 value of exports of domestic pro duce. At the same time the amount of imports was Sl04,e05,S91, being a diminution of 57,2S6,2 11, compared with the imports of the preceding year. These results show a very remarkable difference in the state of trade in the two years, and indeed a strong contrast to any thing which has happened for many years past. This change in the comparative amount of exports and im ports, has produced a very sensible effect in reducing the immense debt of this coun ty to Europe, and prepared the way for the resumption of business on something like the former basis. It is to be hoped that the caution which I as been observed, against an excess of im ports, will be persevered in through the present ye ar. Bold calculators should take care not !o deceive themselves with the xpTt;ition of a" return of the former modes of doing business, and the immense demands for goods which was the result of extenivc creci's. Boston Daily Advertiser. llcpotl of the Secretary of War. Among all the messages and reports that have been published, we find no one that suipasses that of Mr. Poinsett, in the lucid, practical, and comprehensive manner in which it is written, or the soundn: ss of the views which it contains. Much of it is of course given lo details of military opera tion during the past year, in Florida and on the frontiers, with all of which our rea ders have been kept so fully advised that it is unnecessary for us to repeat them. Several important suggestions are made, which are evidently the result of careful examination and profound reflection. The conccn'ration of Ihe troops at proper points, as far as practicable, and the disciplining of recruits at depots established for their reception, before sending them into the ser vice, are urged as essential to the econo mical management and the efficiency of our little army. Central positions should be selected for the regular forces, from which they could move upon any point ot attack or defence; and such an organization of the volunteer or militia forces adopted as would enable them to maintain the posts entrusted to their charge until relieved by the tegular troops a system which ought to be matured in time of peace. The chief and best position for the con centration of troops, independently of the regimental rendezvous, is, for the North ern frontier, near Albany, in the State of New Vork; and near St. Louis, in Mis souri, for the Western points from which easy communications radiate to every part f tl ose extensive lines of defence, and whence troops may be transported with certainty and rapidity wherever their pre sence may he required. For the maritime frontier of Ihe Gulf of Mexico, the Secretary recommends, in addition to the permanent fortifications planned for its defence, and now being erected, the establishment of a depot, somewhere below the falls of the Ohio, for armed sea steam vessels, This would seem to furnish the best means of bringing the vast power of the upper country to the defence of the coast, and using it, when there, in the moat efficient manner, A Saturday, January 0, 9, 1811 certain number of vessels of war might be .Kept in constant readiness, strong enough to carry a good battery, and light enough cross the bars of the Misissmni ... lllllM SL.;lsons aruJ to It is also recommended to continnp system of permanent maritime works of' ueience. J hese are rendered more than ever necessary by the facility vi"h w jm our coasts ami harbors m iv be entered bv steam vessels of war. Light immovable steam batteries so constructed as to present a small surface lo the fire of an enemy an also important in our system of coast de fence. A great many practical improvements are recommended hi reference to fortifiea- tions, equipping, lodging, victualling, and paying soldiers.

The number of contractors is about 2000; post offices, 13,63S, of which 951 have been es tablished within the present year. W iihin the same period, 271 have been discontin ued. Postmasters appointed within the year, 33231 of whom 959 were for new of fices. The receipts of the Department for the year ending 30th June last, were S4,539,- 266. Expenditures, iS-4,759, 111. Ex cess of expenditures, S219,s:45. The Post Master Cent ral mentions as a mong the causes for this excess, or rather for the deficiency in the revenue, the em barrassments of the times, the practice ex tensively adopted of carrying newspapers outside of the mails, and the abuse of. the franking privilege. During the weeks ending the 2d May, 2d June and 7th July last, there were 22, 03S free letters from members of Congress, and 392,268 public documents and other franked packets including dirty linen ho doubt, making in all, 434,669. The pub lic documents and packets from Congiess weighed 32,779 lbs. Mr. Ndes recommends the abolition of the allowance to postmasters 2 cents on free letters, and ol the franking privilege, except to the Heads of Departments; a limitation by law, or compensation for all steamboat, Rail Road and coach service; the equalization of postage on new.-papcrs and other printed matter, with an advance of one hundred per cent, and a revision of the tariff of letter pns'age, w ith a reduction of 25 per cent. -Jour. Coni. Circulation Governor Dudley in his late message to the Legislature of North Carolina, advances the following position: "The currency of the country, no mat ter of whit it consists, must be the medi um of exchange, and is as essential to trade and commerce with the States as the cir culation of the blood is to the animal ex istencc, and as neces.-ary to a healthy stale, to be imulated bv aeential power, ai ihe other is to How from the heirt." The liguie of spetch by which the cir culation of money is likened to the ch eo lation of the blood, is not nevv; but, then, it mast be remembered, that in order that a healthy state may be produced in the To!. ATZZ JVo. s. body politic, the currency must be pure 'and free from vicious particles, jut as in the human svst-m, pore and wholesome nmou is requisite to a healthv Mate of Ihe body natural. If the heart were to send through the arteries blood too much dilu ted with water, thebodv ouhl not acquire sufficient strength for it" support, and it would, conequentl v. perih, and so upon 'he same principle, if the "central power," alluded to by the Governor, were to en.it through the arteries of the body politic a currency too much diluted vt.h pTper, the mischief would be precisely the same. Governor Dudley seem" to think that hu man contrivance can find a perfect substi tute for the metallic, cutrency which na ture has provided, and in ihi he resemhl. s those medical gentlemen who, in the lime of the cholera, thought they could find a ubsti'ute for the blood which nature h d furnished, and actually injected into the veins of patients lying in a collapsed sh.t, i solution of salt water. We do not be lieve in the power of human agency to make a substitute for the currencv of na ture, nnv more than it is in its power to make a substitute for the blood ol nature and all who a'tenpt either will he very apT to incur tne imputation ol bingquacks. !t docs not. therefore, seem to be clear, as Governor Dudley suppose, that because the body prdilic require? a circulation, it is "no matter of what it consists."

And, on a call heins: made on the Governor, desiring him tos'ale what course he would recom mend, he suggested to the Legislature, t.s the best mode he could think of, the sale of State Honds to an amount adequate to the purpose, and to deposit the proceeds in the Central Hank; so as to enable that institution to afford the necessary relief. A proposition of this kind was according; ly ofTered by the friends of the Governor, hut it was rejected in the Senate by a votn of 40 to 39.
