CAUTION TO PER SONS NEGLECT ING THEIR TEETH AND GUMS. t ilraACT FROM MONS. LE DRAY'S .‘ TREATISE ON LOSS OF TEETH." Amon g the various disorders of the Mouth st , there is none amore destructive than Scurvy, which on fir entering the Gums louses them to bleed on the most trifling occasions, and pro ,s.ee's the most offensive and frequently putrid breath. A - " s r., substance invariably accumulates around the necks the Teeth, penetrates into the Gums, which gradually t lr r t3te . away, and the Teeth' then become loose, and the or whol e front their sockets, and it is well known ths., !-on of Teeth arises more from this cause than any other. )11 this subject a distinguished Lecturer makes the following .ervations :—" '"' When it the disgusting effects of t lt, are considered, would appear impossible hat any per -4 ''on could be necessary to induc e p ersons t o o b v i a t e so gre at nuisance even on their own account : or if they are too de t!ed to procure their own comfort and cleanliness by employ a skilful Dentist, they surely have no right to shock the feeling of ethers, who possess more delicacy and propriety of than themselves.

To ?r ofessional men, shop-keepers, and tradesmen generally, who 41 'e much intercourse with the refined and fashionable world, good state of the mouth must be of the greatest importance ! 'resides, is not an offensive breath, which in nineteen cases out of twenty proceeds from the bad state of the teeth and gums, very much calculated t o prevent the blessing of matr i mony ?

When the Teeth are mtl ' , it is impossible to make use of selid food ; and if the th e l nach is then loaded with pieces without being masticated, y r , Patient is exposed to the most distressing insligestions, the a in aell loses its power of contraction, and becomes weak in pro porti on as it no l onger dige s ts; b es id es , when the Teeth eve gone, a great vacuum is left in the mouth, which occasions are Inuscle in the face to be distorted, and the whole features To drawn from their original position to 1, 0 in s i st on t h e i m portance of the teeth, whether regard kr t " . e aid _ functions of digestion articulation, to which t hey much or to personal appearance, in which they are ol s ; i concerned, must appear a waste of words, were it not th e 'IS that there are many persons who never give themselves si ssa tr ouble to think upon the subject ; who . seem sc arcely p st ;e that they possess teeth at all, while their gross . an a td e negligence renders tha fact too apparent to their fri ends as sociates.

Those per sons who do not possess this natural advantage, should en deavour, by extreme care and cleanliness, and a timely resort to artificial rid, to remedy the imperfections, and supply the deficiencies of nntute, in order that their teeth, if not an agree able object, may be prevented, as far as possible, from becoming repulsive one.

THE MEDICINAL EFFECTS of STEEL, as a strengthener and restorative, have been known for ages to excel those of all other articles of the 'Alateria Mediea, and in this age of luxury and dissipation, when the indiscretions of youth disappoint the expectations of maturity, it is not to be wondered that a medicine of such efficacy as SEDDON'S genuine AROMATIC LOZENGES of STEEL should have attracted the attention of the first medical men in Europe. When the most important functions of life are suspended, and those who are invalids by inheritance or imprudence are reduced to the most deplorable state of nervous debility, it is not in despair that relief is to be found. It has been ascertained, be yond a doubt that these circumstances are occasioned by a ge neral or partial relaxation or weaknesses in either sex ; and it is equally certain that SEDDON'S LOZENGES are the best, if not the only remedy ever discovered for this species of de bility. When taken into the stomach they immediately diffuse themselves like a vapour through every pore, producing effects at once delightful, salutary, and permanent. When the spark of life begins to grow dim, the cu culation, languid, and the faculties paralysed, these Lozenges are found to; ive tone to the nerves, exhilirate the animal spirits, invigorate the body, and re-animate the whole man. When aversion to exercise, loss or depravity of appetite, and pallid countenance, indicate approaching consumption, the delicate female will be preserved and restored to health and society by the benign influence of this medicine.

"My Dear Sir,—l have notes of six cases, in which I have adnivistered your preparation of Copaiba, for the cure of Go hcea., in all of which the disease has been subdued in a shorter period of time than according to the ordinary plans hitherto made use of. Besides those cases of which 1 have taken notes, : have tried it in several instances at the Greville- trect Hos ;iital, and am quite satisfied that it possesses a control over the :argent s)roptoms of Gonorrhcea, relieving the discharge and nitigatlng the scalding in making water, that I have not ob served in the usual methods of exhibiting Copaiba. In one in stance only aid it disagree with the stomach ; but in this it seemed to depend rather on the method of exhibition than on the remedy itself, for on diluting it with a larger quantity of water, the objection was at once obvied, and the patient got well in ten days from the time that he commenced taking the Medicine.

The warmth of expression with which the gra titude of some of the restored is couched must be truly gratify ing to the feelings, and highly creditable to the skill and judg ment, of Mr. Van Butchell. —Weekly True Sun. SADLER'S WELLS THEATRE.—The fearful plot that stained our annals two hundred years ago, and still perpetuates the name of Guy Fawkcs, forms the basis at this house of an historical drama into which all the in terest and splendour have been thrown that could emanate from scenes undignified by fabulous heroism or superna. tural agency. The piece opens with an assemblage of the conspirators at l'ercy's mansion, on the banks of the Thames, where Tresham, his friend, is reluctantly induced to join their league, which he finally divulges, after many struggles between the impulse of humanity and the promptings of honour. This part was played by Marston with equal judgment and vigour ; it is essentially a pivot upon which the entire action turns, and could not find a more zealous or efficient representative. It is at this meeting that Guy Fawkes presents himself, embodied by Honner in a truly pietpresque way, and from this point he pursues the cruel and perfidious course, which ends by bringing him to the block, with no qualities to assuage our horror at his deeds, but the stubborn courage and despe rate fidelity that attend them. A comic episode has been framed for the employment of Collier, as a silly, sottish knight. The piece is produced, in every respect, with great skill and care, and will doubtless continue to prove attractive. Another novelty, of French origin, called the Pilot's Son, has also been eminently successful, and forms a very "r Li Lq; fur 11 10 3 e vileskie by . %%licit th e 1 style of Mrs. Honner is so brilliantly distinguished. .OLD CROWN INN LICHFIELD.

MOST IMPORTANT _ DISCOVERY IN MEDICAL SCIENCE. " Vincet veritas et prevalebit." FEAVER'S INFALLIBLE EMBROCA TION for GOUT, RHEUMATISM, RHEUMA TIC GOUT, TIC DOULEROUX, LUMBAGO, SCIA TICA,. RHEUMATIC FEVER, QUINSEY , &c., now for the first time introduced to the notice of the public ; al though in the present age of imposture it is difficult to put for ward a truth, however important, that shall not be liable to be confounded with the daily empirical puffs that arc obtruded on the publi c e ye. This consideration has for a long time deterred the proprietor of Feaver's Embrocation from advertising - it. Felling, however, a thorough conviction of the incalculable be nefits it will confer on mankind, he conscientiously believes that, by withholding it longer, he would be wanting in the com mon feelings of humanity towards his fellow -creatures, and of duty towards himself. He, therefore, no longer hesitates to adopt this mode of making this wonderful remedy generally known, that the afflicted may have an opportunity of enjoying the blessings it offers them. This specific was revealed to the proprietor's father twelve years ago, who then cured him self of a very obstinate case of inflammatory gout of thirty years' standing, and although on that occasion he had been confined to his bed-room for two months, he was enabled to walk two miles within six hours after the application. Since k ebt n el o oenn w s n fo t hr o ay f ve l a il rbs i n e te e en ff s t e ae c (ti t t i eb n i y, g d se a edv e e u tro r a e . 1 , mI et wheresd m ed i cal theal gentlemen extraordinaryt) ipri e - that - period thousand s , f rom t h e no bl e t o t h e peasant, have been cured by i t. In short, it i s no exaggerat i on to assert that it has n e t o ffi e r v ' e s e a r c i y b n e s h e t a r n u s of distinguished eminence, who declare it to be the greatest discovery every made in medical science. The superiority it possesses over every other remedy consists in its being an in noxious vegetable compound, in the perfect security with which it may be used (outwardly) by the most afflicted and timid patient, and in the certainty of its being a sound, safe, and radical exterminator of the above-named maladies in all their terrible and agonizing forms.

THE CHEVALIER MUSTOXIDI AND SIR H. DOUGLAS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR,—I forward to your independent columns the fol lowing protest of the Chevalier Mustoxidi, addressed to Lord J. Russell, on the dilcrepaney between his despatch of the 4th June, as published in the lonian Islands and elsewhere, and that submitted by his Lordship to the House of Commons. It will be perceived that the com plaints of this venerable scholar are not so much against the unmerited attacks which were made upon himself, as against the publication of that despatch, as be says, through Asia and Southern Europe in a mutilated state, with the omis sion of those passages in it favourable to his country. The High Commissioner, who, according to the lonian Constitution, was to forward this protest, sent an answer to Mr. Mustoxidi, by which it appears probable that it will not be transmitted to the Minister. This answer I shall send you in my next.—l have the honour to be Sir, Your obedient bumble servant, Coloaial Club, Nov. 21, 1840. AN lONIAN. • Corfu, Oct. 22, 1840. My Lord—Among the documents printed by order of the House of Commons on the 22d Jane last, was the dis patch of the 4th of the same month, which your Lordship directed to the Lord High Commissioner. It was there fore not without surprise and pleasure that I perceived between the authentic and integral text of this dispatch, and that communicated to me some dais previously by the Lord High Commissioner, several remarkable differences. These differences left my mind for a time in a state of doubt and suspense, until finding them made the ground of animadversion in the public journals, I felt bound not to remain longer in what might seem an ungruefnl and abject silence. Your Lordship has with much judgment regarded the subject of my memorial, and that of the Lord High Com missioner's reply, as two distinct questions. It is not for me to inquire why, in the copy sent to me, many most essential parts were cut out, and to the rest was given the appearance rf a whole, which, suppressing your Lordship's decisions respecting the actual condition of my country, only set before n e your apprehension of that which, cos strained by the necessity of the argument, I had stated re lative to the proceedings of the Lord High Commissioner. Neither is it for me to question whether, defrauding your Lot dship of the praise due for the sentiments of benevo lence you manifest towards the lonians, it was lawful to insert your Lordship's dispatch, under another an .1 noiti lated form, in the public papers of Asia and Europe, with the sole design of outraging my hitherto unz.ssailed repu tation. That such could havo been the directions of your Lord ship, I dare not believe ; but even if they were not, the Lord High Commissioner is certainly under no obligation to justify himself, except to her Majesty's Government. There ic, however, one circumstance of much graver character, to which I earcestly entreat your Lordship's attention. In the text submitted to the House of Com mons, your Lordship, adopting a language accordant with the dignity of your office and your personal character, ex- pr, saes the opinion, that my assertions in the Memorial seem to be without any adequate grounds, which, if I mis take not, implies that these statements may coi.tain a pro bability of truth, but that to arrive at certainty there is need of further developments and clear demonstrations. In the mutilated copy sent me by the Lord High Corn_ missioner, there are first placed words declaring me to be the author of twiny false statements, and one who is governed by a spirit olfaction ; language which would have rendered useless the following more gentle and reserved expressions; language which is not deserved, and which my soul would I epel even were it pronounced by the most eminent and most revered authority. I indulge the hope that in the apology, in the prepara tion of which I am at present occupied, I shall free ruys,lf and my country from the heavy imputations advanced by the Lord High Commissioner; and if it is permitted par vis componere magna, I will trust that the descendant of Lord William Russell, not unmindful of his family history, will not refuse his protection to one whose only fault has been a courageous and persevering desire for the happiness of the country he loves, and the honour of the protecting Power to which he has always been faithful. Meanwhile, my Lord, it is in your power to establish the truth, to estimate the degree, and assign the repara tion of the extent of ignominy which it has been attempted to fix upon my name. On your breast I repose my griefs, and you will judge what and how great responsibility is incurred to yourself, and to justice by him who has, to my so great injury, attributed to your Lordship sentiments and opinions not your own. I therefore solemnly protest agaimst the author of this outrage, whoever he may be; reserving, however, the argu ments I may have to adduce against the same, till I can state them before the competent authority. I have the honour to be, my Lord, Your Lordship's most humble end most devoted servant, (Signed) To the Right Hon. Lord JohnNßDu Minister for the Colonies, &c. &c. &c. ANDREA MUSTOXIDI. tsli 7'o THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sin,—With feelings of disgust, commingled with strong sensations of pity, I read the remarkable narra tion in your paper of Tuesday last, relative to the burial of the infant at Dover. What sentiment but disgust could be produced in any upright mind at the yielding and servile conduct of the Wesleyans? Have they not, by this ill-becoming procedure, acknowledged the imperious and insolent behaviour of the so-called parish priest, to be just and equitable ? Have they not recorded an ignoble pre cedent for any domineering ecclesiastic to follow and with triumph point to? Have they not laid themselves under a ban to go through any amount of suffering, in dividually and collectively, in any part of the kingdom ? If they had gone so far in purchasing a zinc coffin, an d l i keeping the body therein so long, why by this act say their previous conduct was contumacious, and th e y therefore now repent ? Why not, with their usual liberality, find at their own expense a burial-place else where? Of what use is their committee, appointed for preserving their privileges, if they give up so easily their accustomed privilege of burial in a parish church. yard ? And of what advantage will this committee be, between this and the giving of judgment by Sir H. Jenner.in a similar case, if they thus so negligently and comments i na ttentively perform their office ? What other feeling than that of heart-feltpity an d EcHornermeisoeurrateioornrcesapnopndosesnetssmtlalkeemsinsodmfoer s trong bigoted ng o n the conduct of the clergyman, whic h , 1 as h ..,e h as not given his name, we must omit.] In this case, to his honour, the I gene rally supposed to belong to awyer, although a cla ss o f men th e m ost selfish and unmerciful , exemplified and proved himself more charitabl more feeling. charitable than the priest, in asmuch as it was at his instance that the body was brought into the church-yard, although plainly contrary as it was to his o wn pecuniary ends.

(From the Ch arivari.) Dancing is not a taste ; it is never pursued for its stlt-, but as a means , the end o f w hi c h i s l ove ant ! pleksures. Thus, waenever we see gentlemen in autumn of life agitating their aged limbs to the sounc.. music, and wives or spinsters of doubtful charms juinir the amorous cxerel.-.: of waltzes, gallopacks, c c:: dancis, we are convinced that they labour nude,' soul-stirring influence of some passion, secret or (..vo, When a pretty woman continues as fond of dancing • marriage as before, we may conehle with her hus.bAnd. Walking is not a taste, either. To old men it be , a necessary exercise ; it is a pretext to lovers, a par, the coxcomb, and to the idler a certain method et ing time. Good cheer is the amusement of the blasts; the passion of blockheads come to maturity. It acts stimulant to the wit of the first, while it throws the still lower in the scale of brutality. The man of s nitl never deszend to gluttony ; he is at the utir, gourmand. The fool, to say the least, is a gourmand never becomes an epicure.
