Those who constantly use this Powder as directed, will never have the Tooth-ach, or a Tooth decay. The LOTION is a concentrated l'r,parztion, and contains all the desirable qualities of the Drug of which the Powder is made, and is particularly recommended to be used with the Powder, when the Teeth or Gums are in a bad state, namely, spongy, sore, or apt to bleed, symptoms which proceed from Scurvy, and which this will never fail to remedy : it is also a certain, safe, and speedy cure for the Tooth-ach.

ANISTEIIDAM, APRIL 14. Accounts have been received from aitavia of the 13th of December, fm orn which we learn that the Pall ies in the island of Sumatra had had the boldness, during the absence of Lieut.-Colonel naafi, to recommence hostilities, and to attack some diAticts occupied by us; that they were, however, repulsed with great bravery by the Netherland troops under the command of Major Laemlin. This officer, pursuing his advantage, attacked the Padries in thei: fortified posts at Kahan and Him, from whence they were driven, sword in hand, on the 2Gth and 2Sth of September :the loss of the enemy was considerable. Great praise is due to the officers and troops employed on this service, and his Excellency the Governor-General has testified hi; unqualified approba tion. The loss on our side is vets small . Some companies of infantry, provided with every thing necessary, have beer; sent by the British Govern ment in Beival to the west coast of Sumatra, to strengthen and fortify the Company's settlement at Natal. As the who!e island of Sumatra is now ceded to the Netherlands, we learn wi,h peculiar pleasure that Lieu tenant-Colonel ltaaff, on a journey into the interior of that important island, found it not destitute of popula tion ; and at the same time properly cultivated and adapted to all kinds of produce. He also found traces of an internal legal Governintnt, nay, even of a petty general local Government—the most certain prodfs of an advanced degree of civilization. This officer, who has given a verbal :tccntnit ~t these And other partici'. lars, has lately returned from Batavia to Padang, pith troops to complete his tnilitat y force, and some young civil officers, acquainted with the language and manners! of the inhabitants, and with the regulations in foie, in Java. ,~ TRANSPARENT BLINDS.

HANS KAUF; OR, THE DEVIL IN THE OVEN. gitlE Tailor, Hans Kauf, iirg'd his wife from het bed, Fur bread must be balt'd, and the oven be fed ; Who donning her clothes set the wood in a blaze, But instantly ran fruit the spot in amaze, And, hop-skip-and-jump, all impedimenta cross'd, And lix'd 'gainst the wall, stood as firm as a post ! Ilan; Kauf called his female-half sluggard and sloven, And brought her in contact once more with the oven ; Where venturing a look, she retreated again, " The Devil!" exclaiming with all might and main ! Now Hans, without doubt, though a match for his wife, No chance had he knew with Old Nick when at strife, Who now in the oven made a racket and rout, In blackest costume till at last he roll'd out, And as if to hide his demoniac pursuits, Ills legs were array'd in a pair of bright boot, ! Hans jump'd through the window, in quickness no.failer, While fiercely the devil sprang after the tailor ; The river was nigh, and the devil's long paw Now grasping poor Hans, he his enemy saw, And driv'n to despair by infernal attack, l'lung'd into the stream, the " foul-fiend" at his back, And would have been drown'd, but good luck was in store, For devil and tailor came both safe un shore! To wind up our tale, and each mystery show, The Imp was Hans' friend, who in costume of black !Its exit thus made front the oven and attack Array'd in bright Boots, in whose fine ebon glow The shade, of reflection the joke appear'd backing ; !lams Kauf and his wife now confess that they owe Relief front vain tenors to WA HAILS'S akt Blacking!

" I send this by a mere chance opportunity—a vessel bound to Rio; and as there is nos.lni.g new here of im portance, I shall only give you a few hasty lines, just as the thoughts occur to my mist 2. Of ail the different persons, dining the protracted struggle for indepen dence, that have been placed at the head of the Go. vernment of Peru, .his Excellency General Bolivar is generally acknowledged to be tie best calculated to conduct the affairs 'of the Republic. These is a bold ness in all his measures, and an integrity of conduct in his proceedings, that cannot Tail to subdue rip rt y and prejudices, and pesfe.ctly to nni:e the Peruvians of every class and description. Indeed, I have every rea son to hope he m ill I:rove to Le the deliverer of the Peruvian emi.ire, by ultimately e,tablishiug its inde pendence upon a tit m, wiNe, and liberal basis.. Ti:e Government of the Republic is jet in a very impel ;act, and, Iwn sorry to add, impure state. However, upoa the whose, affairs begin to assume a consistency that will soon give them a very favourable aspect, and espe cially since the discovery of Riva Aguera s delinquency. We understand that he has many adherents at Lima, who ale firmly attached to as well as partisans in other parts of Peru ; but there is no apprehension that lie will be able to do further mischief. His lite dis affection will undoubtedly be the cause of protracting the war to a period beyond that in which, a few weeks since, it was hoped it would terminate. These are many persons even now, who vainly expect that the Spaniards will have the ascendancy ; but I am persuaded that the time is not vet y :emote when Pet u will be com pletely emancipate ?, and Great Britain will find it ex pedient to iecognize this country as independent, in order to secure its commercial privileges. " It is contidently reported, that Admiral Guise (for merly a con - mimic! in the British service), who lately sailed horn At ica with an expediticn, had an intention of slivortiA:4 tl,e cause c f Riva Altmera ; but I presume that he mast no..v aaand.m evei y hope of assisting that General in accomplishing his designs. That Admiral has tlcclA•ed the coast from 8 deg. to 23 des. south, to be in a state cf blockaA.. Bolivar and Ins fortes are on their march firm Truxillo ;' and Lima is, in conse quence, considered to be safe from any incursions that the Royalists may be dispcaed to make on it, although some time must elapse before his Excei;ency can bring his troaps up. It i:, likely ti:at the an,ising year will be the most eventful c. isis du: if g the whole revolution; for Bolivar scents determined to surmount the common obstructions that have u-arally impeded the operations of the army. The law Supreme Diifetur of Chili, O'Higgins, is re.-iding in the city of Lima ; and I un. derstand that he still retains the rank of Csiptain-Gene ral of Peru, as well as that of Chili. The G,eneral speaks the English language tolerably well, and pos sesses all the manners and ideas of an Englishman. San Martin resides at Mendoza; but we seldu:n hear any thing cf him. I should have nientioned,.that it is not improbable that O'Higgins may-be again called to the head of the Government of Chili ; but I have heard him declare that he would accept of no other autism ity than one in a military capacity ; and on the tc-mination of the c. most, he would then retire to pf iva:e life. The Blossom, '2B, Captain M'Lean, left this on the lst iastant for Valparai-o, Rio, and Englan3.
