LOSS OF TEETH SUPPLIED WITHOUT SPRINGS, CLASPS, or WIRES ; LOOSE TEETH FASTENED, AND FILLING DECAY ED TEETH WITH MINERAL MARMORATUM. MONS. LE DRAY and SON, SURGEON-DENTISTS, of 60, Newman-street, Oxford -street, London, most re spectfully inform their Patients, the Gentry and Inhabitants of Liverpool and its vicinity, that they have OPENED a BRANCH ESTABLISHMENT permanently in LIVER POOL, at No. 8, RODNEY-STREET, OPPOSITE THE SCOTCH CHURCH, Where MONS. LE DRAY may always be personally con sulted, with the advantage of obtaining all the recent mo dern improvements in the Mechanical and Surgical depart ments of Dentistry, without the necessity of a journey to London for that purpose. Monsieur LE DRAY and Sox, Surgeon-Dentists, continue to restore Decayed Teeth with their celebrated MINERAL MARMORATUM, applied without pain, preventing and curing the Tooth-ache, and rendering the operation of extraction unnecessary. They also fasten loose teeth, whether arising from neglect, the use of calomel, or disease of the gums. Incorrodible Artificial or Natural Teeth of surpassing beauty, fixed, from one to a complete set, without extracting the roots or giving any pain, at the following Paris prices : A Single Artificial Tooth ................ £0 10s. A Set A complete Set ............ ............... 10 10 A complete Set of Natural 'Teeth, beautifully mounted in artificial gums or fine gold, the same as charged Thirty Guinea 5............ 15 15 An entire Set of their beautiful Mineral Teeth, highly finished in the first style, the same as charged Forty Pounds Arranged on the most improved principles, and restoring perfect articulation and mastication. Among the various disorders of the mouth, th ere i s non ° more destructive than Scurvy, which, on first entering tha gums, causes them to bleed on the most trifling occasions. A soft substance inevitably accumulates around the necks of the Teeth, penetrates into the Gums, which graduall3 waste away, and the Teeth then become loose, and drop out whole from their sockets. Could such persons only see the horrid state of their teeth and gums, or for a moment catch the odour of their own breath, they would not hesitate to seek immediate relief. To P rofessional men, s h op k eepers, and tradesmen generally, who have much interc ourse w i t h the refined and fashionable world, a good state of the mouth must be of the greatest importance! Besides, is not an offen sive breath, which in nineteen cases out of twenty proceeds from the bad state of the teeth and gums, very much calcu lated to prevent the blessing of matrimony ? And how often, from inadvertence or neglect, is the happiness of the mar riage state most grievously interrupted by the same cause. As an essential point of beauty, the teeth must ever stand pre-eminent. No regularity of features, no brilliancy of o complexion, no sparkling eyes, or silken b ra id s of jetty ha i r can render that lady beautiful, who, when she opens her lips (though they be of coral,) discloses a set of teeth irregular or discoloured. On the contrary, even homely features and a sallow complexion are embellished and rendered agreeable by a good set of teeth. A mouth large and ill-formed will pass unnoticed, when it contains teeth beautifully white and even. On the other hand, the effects of decay, the accumulation of tartar, the blackened and denuded fangs, and the taint of the breath, which is a common concomitant of bad teeth, will invariably prove disgusting and loathsome.—Attendance from Ten till Six.

SNOWDON and BItOWNLOW AT a period like the present, when about Ten Thousand Chests of Spurious Leaves, in imitation of Tea, brought front Bombay and Sincapore, and about Four Thousand Bags of Tea that was wrecked off the Skerries, in the vessel Mary Elizabeth, but picked up from the wreck, brought to this town, washed and kiln-dried, and now in the hands of those Tea Dealers and Grocers who profess to supply the inhabi tants with Genuine Teas, nothing can be more desirable than an opportunity being afforded to Families and Respectable Dealers of PURCHASING THEIR TEAS DIRECT-FROM THE IMPORTER. The PROPRIETORS of the NEW TEA ESTABLISHMENT, feeling the importance of this truism, as affecting the inter ests of large classes of the community, and knowing that since the Abolition of the East India Company's Charter in 1829, TEA HAS BEEN IMPORTED INTO •LIVERPOOL IN LARGER QUANTITIES than to any other PORT IN THE KINGDOM (London Excepted), without a corresponding advantage to the Consumer, an inducement has been held out to open the present Establish ment, the Proprietors having the fullest confidence that the Patronage of a discerning Public will not be withheld to enable them to carry out their views, when endeavouring TO REFORM THE ABUSES IN THE TEA "MADE, it being their anxious wish and strong determination that ECONOMY SHALL BE COMBINED WITH LUXURY in Supplying the INHABITANTS OF LIVERPOOL AND LANCA SHIRE WITH "REAL" TEA. LIVERPOOL, • the second Port in the world, from its advantages of A DIRECT COMMUNICATION WITII CHINA. and the facilities it affords as a market for purchasing stock, it is natural to iufer would have hitherto furnished Teas to the public at something like a reasonable profit, or at any rate at a less price than towns more remote from the place of debareation. Such, however, not being the fact, the ob ject of this establishment is to supply the public with an article which forms a most essential item in the expenses of almost every family, on THE BEST POSSIBLE TERMS, VIZ.. THE SMALLEST PROFIT, from the importer to the con- The Proprietors of the Establishment being intimately connected with one of the first Houses in, London, they will be enabled to take advantage of that market as circumstances may require. CAUTIONING THE PUBLIC AG 4INST THE SPU RIOUS MIXTURE OF DRIED LEAVES, which has lately been imported in large quantities, and has found its way into the hands of COUNTRY. DEALERS, we beg to inform them our whole time and attention will be devote% to the selection of the two articles Tea and Coffee; the inferior, and in many instances deleterious, mixtures brought to this country since the abolition of the East India Company's Charter, rendering it highly necessary that all persons engaged in the sale of it should be well experi enced in the tasting and examining of them. THE OVERLAND INDIA MAIL arrived in London on the 4th ultimo, bringing news from China up to May 19th date; and on reading the private letters, we find that Captain Elliot had effected a truce with the Chinese commissioner, thereby enabling our merchants to get about eleven millions of pounds of Tea (equal to three months' supply for this country) shipped, which has caused quite a panic in London Tea market, attended with a 'fall of about one shilling per pound on all sorts, within the last three weeks, thus making them as low in price as those now on their way to this country cost the merchants importing ; for we find the lowest quality of Congou sold in Canton, at 25 to 27 taels, equal to about is. sd. of our money. to which must be added at least sd. per lb. for the expenses of ship ping them to England—together making a cost of ls. 10d. per lb. for the lowest Congou to the importers. Still we find, that at the London Public Tea Sale of the 7th ultimo, (at which the most of our stock has been purchased,) Congou characterised by the Tea brokers—good middling Tea, blackish leaf, and strong, (which is at least 6d. per lb. better than the lowest quality,) sold at Is. 114 d. to Id. per lb. ; and very fine qualities, bearing a character. Superior Tea, strong and full Pekoe flavour, even wiry black leaf, only fetched 2s. 51d. per lb., being, as we before stated, as near as possi ble, the present cost to the importer. 'I o the sale prices add the duty, 2s. nd. per lb., which shoe s that a really useful family Tea costs us in London 4s. 24d. per lb., and quality as fine as it is our intention to advise any family to use, 4s. 7id. Having been fortunate enough to lay in our stock during the present extraordinary fall in prices, war rants us in saying we can offer an advantage to the public which no other house in the trade can, for it is a well known fact, that (prior to the lost news from China,) nearly every person connected with the Tea trade, and even private speculators believing the Emperor of China had ordered all the Tea in his dominions to be destroyed, bought to a very great extent, at prices one shilling per pound above what they are at present. _ _ In professing to have this great benefit to offer, we do not boast of any foresight or wonderful advantages over our fellow-traders, it arising merely from our arrangements not being so complete as to enable us to lay in our stock earlier than the Ist ult. At the same time we do not feel too con fident that the present very low prices will continue long, as most of the merchants refuse to submit to so alarming a sacrifice, and we also find by the private India letters, that although Captain Elliot had effected this truce it was liable to be cancelled by an edict from the Emperor any minute, — in fact our merchants quite expected such would be the case, as vast troops of Chinese soldiers was encamping near Can ton,—so that the next advices may inform us of an entire stoppage of the British trade;—therefore it is our duty to advise all families, and large consumers, to purchase freely at the present prices, they being as low (of good qualities) as was ever known, and in giving this advice we wish the public to bear in mind it is solely for their benefit, as the system we shall introduce into our establishment is to'to charge a profit of 3d. per lb., so that should the next news from China cause an advance in the value we shall make a corresponding one. We before stated that useful family Congou cost us (duty paid) in London 4s. 2d. per lb., and really fine qualities 4s. 'ad. per lb., add Id. per lb. for the carriage here, thus making the costs 4s. 3.1 d. and 4s. 81d., which enables us to offer them at prices lower than has been quoted for many months past, and until a change in the market takes place will be as follow : BLACK Sound Breakfast Congou Useful Family Ditto, with strength—recommended Superior Full Strong Pekoe Flavour Ditto, recom mended to all consumers as quite good enough for general use Very Rich Full Flavour Pekoe Souchong, long ciapy leaf. This is the finest Tea in the country G 0 For the accommodation of connoisseurs we shall keep a supply of the choicest qualities of Flowery and Orange Pe koes, Ning Yong, Ankoi Pouchong, Tetsong, llowqua's Mix ture, and all other rare sorts, but do not recommend them for general use, their peculiar flavours rendering them un palateable to most persons. GREEN __ Useful Twankay Good Middling Hyson-kind, pale brightish leaf—re commended 4 6 Full Flavoured Hyson, brightish leaf—recommended as quite good enough for family purposes.. Superior Hyson, long twisted and bright leaf t 0 Cowslip Hyson, of very choice quality. This Tea is only flt to be mixed with Pekoe Souchong, its main quality _ being flavour Canton-made Young Hyson Ouchain, or Real Young Hyson—reconarnended 5 6 Canton-made Gunpowder Ditto Imperial Ditto Fine Ditto Ditto Very choice Gunpowder, bright shotty leaf 7 6 Persons buying an original chest, of Nibs, or a half-chest, gain the merchant's overweights, which vary from 2 to 31bs on a chest, and from 1 to 21bs on a half chest. We must now draw your attention to the other branch of our business, viz., Coffee, which we regret to say is as se riously adulterated as Tea, and, if possible, to a more alarm ing extent, which is easily shown by the fact that the con sumption of Chiccory has within the last three years increased fully fifty fold; and about a twelvemonth since several retail tea dealers and grocers were summoned by the excise officers for having large quantities on their premises. Since which (we suppose upon the same principle that duty was allowed to be paid to government upon the four thousand chests of tea that had deep wrecked, then brought to Liverpool, washed, and dried on kilns) government has allowed the free use of it upon payment of a small duty, therefore it is now used with impunity ; and the value of it, duty paid, not being more than 5d per Ib, offers too great a temptation for the generality of dealers to resist it ; consequently, we advise Families to purchase their Coffee in the berry, thereby en suring a genuine article, assuring them the small outlay of buying a coffee-mill will soon be repaid. We shall roast our Coffees twice a week, viz., Tuesdays and Fridays. Our present prices (which, like our Teas, will vary as the market value changes) are as follows : COFFEES, Whether ground or in the Berry, will be genuine s. d. Good Ceylon Strong Berbice Good Jamaica 2 0 (A very useful Family Coffee, and recommended for general purposes.) Very choice full-flavoured J ...voureu dammca c G (As fine a Coffee as need be used.)

By Her Majesty's Royal Letters Patent PHOTOGRAPHIC PORTRAITS TAKEN BY THE REFLECTION OF LIGHT. AT TH E MOUNT GARDENS, ST. JAMES'S WALK, LIVERPOOL. THE Proprietors of the REFLECTING APPARATUS, by which FAITHFUL MINIATURE LIKENESSES of the Human Countenance and Person are " won from the hand of Nature" in the short space of a few seconds, respect fully announce to the Nobility, Gentry, and Inhabitants of Lancashire, that the Extraordinary Process WILL OPEN ON FRIDAY NEXT. _ The Corporation of Liverpool having granted the site of the late OBSERVATORY, ST. JAMES'S 'WALK, a neat and elegant Building has been erected thereon, in which the PHOTOGRAPHIC APPARATUS, the discovery of which is ranked among the greatest scientific achievements of the present age, will be in DAILY OPERATION. • THE PRICE FOR EACH PORTRAIT, INCLUDING A FRAME, IS ONE GUINEA. JOHN RELPH, Manager. The Invention was recently introduced into England, at the ROYAL POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTION, LONDON ; and the following are a few extracts from the leading Journals relating to its merits : (From the Times.) THE PHOTOGRAPHIC MINIATURES.—The principle has been so tar perfected as to be almost incapable of further improvement. The novelty attendant upon the fact of being furnished in the short space of five •seconds with a more correct miniature likeness than the most accom plished artist could paint on ivory, after days of laborious study, coupled with the fineness of the weather, drew together a host of curious fashionables, at the Poly. technic Institution, so many, indeed, that notwithstanding the short period of time occupied in the operation, the room was crowded for hours together, by parties anxiously waiting their turn. The apartment appropriated for the magical process—for so it may be termed—is well calculated for the object desired, being on the highest story of the institution. From the roof, which is constructed of blue glass, of about a quarter of an inch thick, a very powerful light is obtained, and it is so ingeniously contrived as to revolve with the sun. Ina portion of the room, nearly in the centre, an elevated seat is placed, on which the party whose likeness is to be taken sits, with his head reclined backwards. In this posi tion the sitter is told to look into a glass box, in an opposite direction, about five from him, in winch is placed the plate to be impressed with the portrait. Having done so fora few seconds, he descends, and in a few minutes afterwards a 'likeness is presented to him. The likenesses which we saw were admirable, and closely true to nature, beauties and de formities being alike exhibited ; therefore those who are ashamed of their personal appearance had better keep from the influence of photography. (From the Morning Chronicle.) When we formerly described this process, the time requi site for taking a portrait was, generally speaking, about four minutes ; but in consequence of the great improvements that have been made, the time has been reduced to about five se conds on a clear day ; bu►t during cloudy dull weather the operation may require from a minute and a half to two mi nutes. The portraits taken by this means are really extraordinary as likenesses ; they are true to nature, for nature here is her own delineator. The features are admirably marked out and delineated, and the likenesses at first sight are so extraordi nary, that they are really startling. (From the Morning - Advertiser.) PHOTOGRAPHIC LIKENESSES.—One of the most inter esting sights it is possible to conceive is now attracting crowds daily to the Polytechnic Institution, Regent-street. The patentee has christened it the " photographic mode of taking likenesses." By this process, in the incredibly short space of five seconds, the likeness of any individual is taken down on a piece of metal, and the portrait is a perfect fac simile of the sitter. It is nature herself that is called in to be the artist, and her performance is truly astonishing, leaving immeasurably behind it everything that human skill could effect. (From the Morning Herald.) PHOTOGRAPHIC PORTRAITS.—We were present on Sa turday at the exhibition of the extraordinary process of taking portraits by the reflecting apparatus, lately patented, and now for the first time brought before the public. By the photographic progress, perfect likenesses are taken: in the short space of from ten to five and twenty seconds! We say perfect, because the prepared plate on which the objects is reflected must of necessity produce a perfect transcript of that object. The operation, therefore, being thus unerring, the fault of even the slightest failure in likeness can only be attributable to the person sitting, which, of course, may result frorn an assumed or unnatural position. Although the exhibition has been only of a private character, and of some two or three days, we understand that it has been visited by all the parties possessing the privilege. Among other influential personages present OR Saturdey, we noticed the Earl of Shaftesbury, who expressed his surprise and gratification at the extraordinary invention. (From the Court Journal) PHOTOGRAPHIC LIKENESSES.—We attended yesterday at the private view given by the patentee of the reflecting ap paratus at the Polytechnic Institution, by which photographic likenesses are taken, and with the greatest accuracy, in a period varying from five to twenty seconds. We were de lighhted with the exhibition. _ Ry a rkl . - 11:` , 4 • LIVERPOOL ANNUAL EXHIBITION, THE EXHIBITION of the LIVERPOOL ACADEMY of WORKS of MODERN ARTISTS is now OPEN, at the EXHIBITION-ROOMS, Old Postoffice-place, Church street, from Nine in the Morning until Dusk.

(From the Morning Post The patentee of this invention has adopted the principle of giving these " reflections" to the public at a very moderate cost, compared to the ordinary price of miniatures, trnsting for his return to a general desire to possess them, which he anticipates must be felt by all persons who would cherish the best memento of a dear friend or relative. (From the Courier.) . "Every line, every touch in the pictrue produced is from the pencil of nature, without flattery or fallacy." (From the Weekly Dispatch.) , PHOTOGRAPHIC PORTRAITS.-- Yv ,,, e t oo k an opportunity on Monday cf again visiting the Polytechnic Institution, to witness the astonishing manner in which portraits are take n by the photographic process. The room was crowded with nobility and gentry, among whom we noticed Lord Aber deen, and several other persons of rank, each of whom, in the warmest terms, expressed their delight and astonishment at the rapidity with which the portraits of different gentle men were taken, and the extreme fidelity in the exeeution It is, in fact, impossible for the portraits to be anythi t n l g i : short of a complete copy of nature. (From the Observer.) sbimutilaa plain matt er P HOTOGRAPHIC PORTRAITS.—The appe arance or ofr operations,touch and miniature thus produced is that of a mezzotint engraving, the likeness being no question of opinion, of fact, for nature in this , as in other makes "no mistake."

(From Na _ val and Military Gazette.) PHOTOGRAPHIC the YORTRAITS.—POM some time it was doubted whether Photography could ever be brought to operate satisfactorily on the human face and form, so as to enable the artist to take effective likeness, in the slightest motion an unerring and in evitably destroying the pictureits progrees. Ingenuity, perseverance, and rep eated experiments, have at length com pl ete l y triumphed over the difficulty , • and miniature portraits, infallibly faithful, are now taken, from a sittting of from five to twenty seconds ; the time varying according to the intensity of light. (From Bell's Weekly Messenger.) EXTRAORDIN AKY PACT.—MINIATURE PICTURES.-1t is bodily and personally the individual who is the sitter. It is as much so, as he sees himself in the most accurate looking glass, but with this difference, that the Photographic likeness is the image as it' it were removed from the surface of the mirror, and rendered per petual. It is an everlasting memo rial of the man at the moment it is taken—and therefore t he most precious gift that can be given to tho se w h o love him while living, and will cherish his memory wh en dead. I t is a discovery, which not only saves the sitter from the tediu of being fixed in the same position for many an hour .m likeness, (for th is is accom p li shed in the sixth -' t ot his part of a mi nute)—but it affords to artists themselves for copying other likenesses, whether ' b the surest guide paintings as large as life. m miniature, or in oil Specimens may be seen, and Orders received, at Mr. L A ..
