The " settling" for Ascot Heath Races engrossed the en tire attention of a crowded room until five o'clock, at which hour speculation on future events commenced with more spirit than we had contemplated. The first to come off is the July Stakes, for which Hellespont (bro to Bosphorus) is first favourite 'and St. Preux second ; 'very little was done, as the field will be small. The next in rotation is the Good wood Cup ; its entry, as usual, is strong, and includes the winners of th e D er b y and Oaks each was backed on Sunday at 6 to 1, and as nothing occurred yesterday to change them we have adopted those prices in the subjoined list. All the St. Leger horses mentioned below were backed at the figures set against their names, but with the exception -of those against Apothecary, the odds in each case were subsequently offered. The Derby promises to be an interesting race to speculators. Lord Jersey's lot (Glenorchy and Muley macs,) which had been previously packed to a large amount, was again in force at 0 to 1, taken in_ hundreds six or seven times—in fact, until the layers cried "enough." Lord Exeter's lot was in favour at the same price, but not by any means to the same amount, for the simple reason that- the betters of the odds did not like the terms ; the lot consists of Hellespont, and the colts by Sultan, put.of Velvet, Mari nella, Datura, and Ramona, colt by J e r ry, out of Lucetta, and colt by Reveller, out of Galata. Defendant, now in a Newmarket stable, was backed at 20 to 1 to two o r three hundred pounds. The general prices, at the" close of the room, were as follows [PRICE FIVEPENCE.

Indeed it is a fact that will always remain on record, that amid the vicissitudes of all other theatrical establishments, with Madame at its helm, success has never been equivocal for a moment, and the receipts have for years past averaged nearly as much as the patent theatres. The private boxes are in such high repute that double the present low rental is available by this means alone. Madame Vestris has a lease for three more seasons, at only ONE THOUSAND POUNDS A YEAR. The tenure is leasehold of Earl Craven, for 27 years still unexpired, at the original ground rent of £lOO a year. The house adjoining is subject to £32 a year. The Lord Cham berlain's license extends to eight months. Particulars may be had of Messrs. FARRAR and LAKE, Solicitors, Doctors' Commons ; the Mart ; and in Covent garden.

ARTIFICIAL TEETH SUPPLIED WITHOUT WIRES, SPRINGS, OR CLASPS. • LOOSE TEETH FASTENED. And filling" Decayed Teeth with Mineral armoratum. MON s. LE DRAT ,and CO., SurgeonOentists, respect fully inform the Nobility, Gentry, and Inhabitants of Liver pool and its vicinity, that they have opened an Establishment permanently at No. 70, SEEL-STREET, eight doors from Berry-street. They continue to fill up the cavities of De cayed Teeth with their Mineral Marmoratum, without the least pain, heat, or pressure ; it is placed into the cavity in an almost liquid state, .and in a few seconds gets hard, pre venting and curing the Tooth-ache, arresting all further pro gress of decay, and rendering the operation of extraction unnecessary. The Mineral not only converts a mere shell into a sound and useful tooth, but,, by completely stopping up 'the cavity, prevents effectually that unpleasant taint of the breath which invariably accompanies a decayed tooth. Among the various disorders of the Teeth and Gums, there are none more destructive in their effects, or more generally prevalent, than Scurvy ; and it i s we ll known that the loss of Teeth arises more from this cause than any other. It affects individuals of all ages and of all'constitutions, and is the primary cause of Tooth-ache and decay. To those so affected, Mons. LE DRAY and Co. have to inform them, that they can effectually remove this destructive complaint by a single application, without the slightest pain. Artificial and Natural Teeth, of surpassing beauty, fixed from one to a complete set, without extracting the roots or giving any pain, without spri2zys, wires, or ligatures, an swering all the purposes of Mastication and Articulation, remaining perfectly secure in their places, and may be taken out and replaced by the wearer with.the greatest facility, — at the following Paris charges : A single Artificial Tooth A complete Set A complete Set of Natural Teeth, on fine gold plate An entire Set of Natural or Terro Metal lic Teeth, highly finished, in the first style, with fine gold sockets, usually charged 40 guineas Loose Teeth fastened, arising either from age, disease, or mercury, and deficiencies of palate effectually remedied.

ADVERTISEMENT. THE MANX LOTTERY. TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD. - - SIR,—A paragraph appears in the Albion of to-day respect jug the Isle of Man Lottery. As the whole §patement is the production of falsehood and malice, and fr;iding to injure a public body, I beg you will contradict theviame. The act of Tynwald, of which he speaks as to putting down lotteries in the Isle of Man, only applies to lotteries established after the promulgation of the said act, and cannot, nor has it a retro spective effect acting as an export facto law. I need not remind you that it would have shown com mon sense i f the editor of the Albion had examined the Manx papers respecting the affair, before adopting the mischievous anonymous article I have alluded to. As to responsibility or risk of the parties who have purchased, or may hereafter be induced to purchase, I have to observe, that if the intentions of the Isle of Man Building Company Lottery trustees cannot be carried into effect—of which no doubt exists, exceptin the minds of such men as the • Albion's correspondent—then I, as their agent, am fully authorised to declare that all moneys shall certainly be refunded. I remain, sir, yours respectfully, PETER ORMEROD. Liverpool, May 20, 1839. T PRIESTLEY, CHEMIST, Lord-street, - Liverpool, begs o particularly to call the attention of his Friends and the Public to his improved Preparation of the very justly-cele brated article SEIDLITZ POWDERS, to form the SEID LITZ WATERS, which approach nearer than anything yet discovered to the Chalybeate Waters qf: Germany. The style of preparing PRIESTLEY'S S EIDLITZ POWDERS is peculiar to himself, and combines scientific skill with great accuracy, and although numbers of people acquainted with the business, 114 others, have of late years attempted imitations, they have ",Q„,bespurious,compoondv s neither pos iavour nor the medicinal properties of Eaglng The - a - kreeable the Seidlitz Waters. Sold in boxes 2s. each, containing twenty-four powders, to make one dozen tumbler glasses, and in tin cases 10s. each. The latter are put up in a very eligible form for exportation, or to use at sea, and will keep any length of time in all cli mates. Prepared and sold only by JOHN PRIESTLEY, No. 64, Lord-street, where also may be had Seidlitz Powders in Packets. IMPROVED SODA POWDERS. It has been observed, that the Soda Water, when kept in jars, parts with its carbonic gas • that carriage of it to a dis tance has been attended with risk and considerable expense ; and that from these inconveniences, its use has been confined chiefly to large cities and their environs. To obviate these objections, and to extend the use of this agreeable and effica cious Water, the ingredients for making it are offered to the public.—Sold in boxes at Is. 6d. each. FLUID EXTRACT OF SARSAPARILLA. In this preparation are concentrated all the Medicinal Pro perties of Sarsaparilla Root. To persons, therefore, who, from various causes, would experience great inconvenience, or with whom it would be utterly impossible to prepare the Compound Decoction, the Fluid Extract, which possesses the advantages of portability and of keeping in any climate, will be found a most desirable mode of employing this much esteemed Medicine. Two teaspoonsful of the Fluid Extract, put into a wine glass full of water, makes a preparation equal in strength to half-a-pint of the Compound Decoction, formerly prescribed by the London, Edinburgh, and Dublin Pharmacopoeias. The diseases in which it has proved most beneficial are those of the Skin ; such as Scorbutic Affections, Eruptive Diseases, Secondary Symptoms, &c. arising from a diseased state of the system at large. For removing Blotches, Pim ples &c. from the Face, this Medicine has no superior. The extensive use and high reputation of this preparation has led to numerous imitations, disguised by the name of Syrup, Essences, &c. The whole medicinal virtues of the Sarsaparilla consist in its extractive matter, and it possesses no real property in the form of essence, while the Syrup is injurious to the digestive organs by causing acid fermentation. Sold in bottles, at 4s. 6d., is. 6d., 10s., 155., and 21s. The larger sized bottles are the cheapest. VEGETABLE HAIR OIL Is allowed to be an excellent discovery for invigorating and renovating the human Hair. It eradicates the scurf, nourishes the Hair, prevents its falling off, produces a most beautiful natural curl, and gives to artificial Hair a peculiar softness of texture, and luxuriaut appearance.—Sold in bottles at Is. 3d. and 3s. each. CHEMICAL MARKING INK. For Writing on Linen with a Common Pen. This is very superior to the generality of what are called Permanent Inks. It gives a most brilliant black, which cannot be removed by acids or any other causes, without at the same time destroying the linen. Families may be accommodated with the improved Permanent Ink and Preparation separately if required.—Sold in Cases, is 6d, and 3s. VEGETABLE TOOTH POWDER. A pleasant Tonic Tooth Powder, which simply removes all tartarous incrustations from the enamel ; and by its peculiar properties preserves that necessary covering. —Sold in Boxes, 2s 6d. FURNITURE OIL, For Cleaning and Polishing Furniture. DIREeTIONS.—First clean the Furniture from wax or other composition that may have been previously used, then take a little of this Oil, and with a soft piece of Flannel apply it all over ; and for the first time let it remain on twelve hours. After wiping it off with another piece of soft Flannel, continue rubbing it till a beautiful polish is produced. A little used twice a week is sufficient to ensure the brightness and durab ility of the Furniture.—Half-pint Bottles Is, pints is 9d, quarts 3s. GENUINE METALLIC LUSTRE. This article is recommended to Housekeepers for cleaning all manner of Gold and Silver Plate, Metal Teapots, Pewter Mersures, Brass Fenders, Candlesticks, Stair Rods, Brass Plates on doors, Tin Covers, &c. &c.; with half the usual labour which is generally required with other preparations, the above Lustre leaves a beautiful polish on the Metal. It will also be found useful in the Stable department, for clean ing Brass mounted Carriage, Gig, or Coach Harness.—Sold in squares, at Gd and is each. SCOURING DROPS. The purpose of this useful article is for taking Grease Spots out of Silks, Stuffs, fine Woollen Cloths, &c., without in juring the finest fabric or most delicate colour. The best method of using the Scouring Drops is, to spread the Silk, &c., on a table, with a clean napkin under it, and put a few drops on a bit of new or very clean Flannel, and rub the spot until it disappears; then with a clean napkin rub it till quite dry. It leaves no more stain than a drop of water, which hanging a few hours in the air, or a few days' wear, will take away.—Price Is. ESSENTIAL SALT OF LEMONS.

The virtues of this herb, which is uniformly held in high estimation by the most eminent Medical Practitioners in the kingdom, is in the present preparation, most fully colleen trated, whilst the necessity of administering large doses, as when used in its simple form, is hereby avoided. MUCH ADMIRED ALMOND FLAVOUR. A few drops of this Flavour added to Custards, Puddings, Cakes, Wines, Jellies, &c., communicate a most delicious taste of Almonds.—Sold in Bottles, with Directions, ls. 6d. and 3s.

THE LAPACHO TREE.—The lapacho is not only the finest, but the most magnificent, of all trees. English oak is very fine, but never to be compared to lapacho. From the solid trunk of one of these trees a Portuguese scooped out at Villa Real a canoe, which brought do wn t o A ssumpt i on a h undred bales of yerlia. (that is, 22,5001b5. of Paraguay tea,) several hides made up into balls and filled with molasses, a load of deals, seventy packages of tobacco, and eight Paraguay sailors to manage the three masts and sails of the large, but yet, ele gantly, scooped-out trunk of the lapacho tree. Of this tree are constructed vessels which, when 50 years old, may still be called young. Their frame is not shaken, nor is their consti tution debilitated, by all the bumps they have on the sand banks of the Parana, nor by the searching rays of a tropical sun, nor by the " even-do wn p ours ," as t h e S cotc h have it, of tropicali rains.—Robertson's Paraguay. THE RUINS OF ANNI.—As I rode among the mounds of stones, several coveys of the rock partridge rose from beneath my horse's feet, so seldom are they disturbed in the once crowded streets of the capital of Armenia. One solitary Koordish shepherd, with his white felt cloak, was standing beneath the shelter of a ruined porch, while his small flock of mountain goats were perched upon the crumbling arches of an adjoining bath. Shepherd and flock were both in keeping with the desolation of the surrounding scene, anti would have furnished a subject worthy of Salvator's pencil. In one of the old roofless churches, a scanty fire, still smouldering among the blackened ruins of the fallen altar, marked his cheerless bivouac. My guide, dismounting, allowed his horse to stray within the gateway of the sacred pile, and, sheltered from the raw and piercing blast by the massive buttress of the vaulted aisle, vainly attempted to fan the dying embers to a flame.—Captain Wilbraham's Travels. THE BATTLE -FIELD ON WHICH WELLINGTON EARNED HIS FIRST LAURELS. —The battle of Assaye, which com pletely destroyed the power of Scindia south of the Ner budda, and established the superiority of the British in the Deccan, was one of the most important achievments in the history of British India. Fourteen years had elapsed since this memorable engagement when I passed over the ground ; but the strong position occupied by the Mahrattahs behind the Ketnah river could still be traced by the line of field works, which retained somethint , of a milit ar y a pp earance . Assaye, from whi c h th e battle takes its name, is an insigni ficant village on the confluence of Ketnan and Juah, but is capable of being made a very important post. The remains of the mud wall by which it was secured were visible when I passed, and I think that Scindia showed some skill in select ing such a protection for his left flank. Yet it was by turn ing the Mahrattahs at this very point that the victory was won. Under all the circumstances, the battle of Assayc may be regarded as a deed of daring valour, almost amounting to temerity. The Mahrattahs were more than tenfold the number of the British • they had a park of artillery consist ing of more th an a hundred cannon, to which we could only oppose a few light guns ; and they had a position of much natural strength. In fact, our line of infantry was shaken by the overwhelming fire, when the 19th dragoons and 4th native cavalry executed a brilliant charge, and drove the Mahrattahs from their guns. We found the field of battle tenanted by Faquirs and Gosseins, Mahammedan and Hin doo hermits, who had erected huts near the mounds under which the slain were interred, to pray for the souls of the deceased. These devotees were supported by alms. As our soldiers passed by, they planted flags by the side of the road, and sung a sort of recitative, in which they celebrated the praises of those who had fallen in the battle, concluding with predictions that we should obtain similar glory, and that poets better than themselves would celebrate our praise. The sepoys were greatly effected by these appeals, and there were few who did not drop some pice into the lota* or brass dishes, which the mendicants had placed on the ground to receive the contributions of the charitable.—Bevan 's Thirty Years in India.

It .. is needless to Say that women of this morbid imbecile cha- meter have no influence. They are so occupied with the minutiae of their own personal miseries, that they have no time to think of the sin and sorrow existing in the world around them. Whatever is proposed to them in the way of doing good, is sure to meet with a listless, w eary , murmur i ng denial; for if the hundred-and-one objections, arising out of other fancied causes; should be obviated, there are their end less and inexhaustible nerves.

FuRTREP., Dtscovnums AT WHATLRY.—Some time since we furnished an account of the discovery of a Roman villa at Whatley, near Frome, Soinersetshire. We nowlearn from a resident gentleman, that many other very interesting dis coveries have recently teen Made. 'lii ranking sonic. further excavations a small part of a wall has been laid open; it is covered with paintings on fine plaster, similar to that discov ered by Mr. Lyons some years since - at Colesbourn, in Gloucestershire. These are supposed to be the o n l y fr' ag. merits of the kind hitherto discovered in this - island in their original position. The pattern is rudely executed, but the - colours are distinguishable. The remains, of which this room formed a part, are imagined to be the site of.a Roman villa; and from the nature of its construction, its occupier must have been a person of some rank and authority. Therelitive also been found on the spot some coins of the emperors•Clau*: dins and Constantine, a curious bronze spoon, a small bronze animal, resembling a goat or sheep, probably a tntelary god of the Romans, a large needle of the same.metal,,and.some fra* ments of fine pottery, Which_ have been, broken and - joined: : together with inolten,lead i the parts so wended being.fliscov' . - ered in that state, its value therefore, must .havebeen: cone: siderable.
