The entire number of the Society's grants at present is 264 ; of these, 76 are to the Diocese of Chester, viz., 73 . for Curates and three for Scripture Readers, of the an nual amount of £6,335, including 11 grants to Liverpool, amounting to £930 annually. Encouraged by the in creased support which the Society has received during the past year, the Committee have lately made grants to 14 out of 30 applicants, whose cases appeared the most ur gent among the many on their books. In order to main tain the existing grants, and to extend aid to other dis tricts where it is sadly needed, the Committee earnestly appeal to the Inhabitants of Liverpool to give that consi deration to the claims of the Society now about to be brought before them which its character and operations deserve, and which, they have no doubt, when examined, will lead to a larger measure of support from Liverpool than that hitherto received.

CHRISTOPHER BUSH, 8.A., INCUMBENT OF CHRIST CHURCH, WESTON POINT, WHO DIED ON THE 25TH MARCH, A. D. 1844. THE REV. CHRISTOPHER BUSH, the Incumbent of the Waterman's Church, Weston Point, has been suddenly removed from the bosom of his beloved family, and called upon, in the vigour of his age, to close all his earthly relationships. In his death the Church has lost a zealous ministering servant, and the poor Watermen of Weston a Pastor whom they highly esteemed in love for his work's sake. He was their constant Friend, their benign Pastor, their faithful Teacher, and their watchful Guardian. But now he has ended his Ministry among them. Only a few days illness, produced by severe cold in his affectionate endeavours to serve a neighbouring brother clergyman, preceded his lamented death. By this affecting providential dispensation, his poor widow is, in a moment, reduced from the comforts of a quiet Parsonage, and the respectability of her husband's sacred profession, to a state of humble dependency, and left to struggle, through the hardships of poverty, alone, with her four little ones, while she is upon the verge of giving birth to another fatherless babe. It is in this time of their afflic tion, when the heart is experiencing nature's deepest sor rows, that a few friends, who honour the memory of the beloved departed, are solicitous of contributing effectually to the relief of his bereaved and mourning family, by pro viding for the maintenance and education in some of the Establishments of the Church, instituted for the benefit of the Sons and Daughters of poor Clergymen, and by obtaining some permanent, however limited, support for the destitute widow of one who faithfully ministered at the Altar of the Church. Contributions will be thankfully received by the Rev. JAMES Cox, Trinity Parsonage, Runcorn ; the Rev. WILLIAM CARDALL, Runcorn ; the Rev. JAMES WRIGHT, Latchford, near Warrington ; the Rev. WIL LIAM JEFF, Farnworth, near Warrington ; the Rev. FRANCIS PROCTER, Catherine Hall, Cambridge ; the Rev. ROBERT TWEDDELL, Halton ; the Rev. JOHN COLLINS, Frodsham ; the Rev. R. D. THOMAS, Marthall Parsonage, near Knutsford ; the Rev. JoHN GAMON, Chester; the Rev. ROBERT CLOWES. Knutsford ; Mr. SAMDEL CHARLTON, Runcorn ; Mr. EDWARD ATHER TON LINGARD, the Old Quay, Runcorn; and at the Bank of Messrs. PARR, LYON, and GREENALL, Warrington. In Liverpool, Contributions will be received by the Rev. FREDERICK PARRY, 1. Falkner-terrace ; at the Deposi t Ty of the Christian Knowledge Society, Bold-street ; and at the STANDARD-OFFICE.

F. L. HAUSBURG, OLD POSTOFFICE-BUII DINGS. TEETH. EXTRAORDINARY LOW PRICES, In consequence of the grand Improvements in the Mecha. nical Departments of Dentistry. MR. A. ESKELL, SURGEON DENTIST, from the Firm * of Messrs. Eskell and Sons, 99, Norfolk street, Sheffield, and 28, Cooper-street, Manchester, may be consulted DAILY at his Establishment, 61, RENSH AW-STREET, LIVERPOOL. Artificial Teeth supplied, without springs. wires, &c. ARTIFICIAL and NATURAL TEETH, of SUR PRISING BEAUTY, fixed from one to a complete set, without extracting the roots. or giving any pain, and without springs, wires, or ligatures, answering 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 charges : £ s. d. A single artificial tooth A complete set A complete set of natural teeth, on fine gold plate An entire set of natural or terro-me tallic teeth, highly finished in the first style, with fine gold sockets, usually charged 40 guineas INCORR.ODIBLE STONE TEETH, warranted never to change colour nor decay. The great beauty of these STONE TEETH is that it is impossible to detect them from natural. Mr. E. continues to FIX ARTIFICIAL TEETH on his entirely new principle, without tying or fixing wires. They are constructed in such a manner that it is impossi ble to discern them from the productions of nature. The peculiar advantages of these TEETH are, that they opera as a support to those which remain in the mouth, if any, and prevent their approximation ; and even loose TEETH, are held firm in their sockets by their aid. They may be taken out and replaced by the wearer with facility, and will continue securely fixed on the gums; they'will retain their colour, perform mastication, assist articulation, and cannnot be dis'inguished from those of natural growth. The inconveniences attending the loss of TEETH are too well known to require comment, but to those who have not experienced the comforts of artificial TEETH, Mr. ESKELL is desirous of showing the diffi culties, more or less, endured by every individual without teeth. When the TEETH fail, the destruction of the sock ets invariably ensues ; one cannot exist without the other. The process of absorption commences immediately after the tooth is extracted, or, in many cases, the gum and sockets waste away, and cause the TEETH to become loose and drop out. When the teeth are gone, and the sockets absorbed, a great vacuum is left in the mouth, which oc casions every muscle in the face to be distorted ; and the eyes, the nose, the lips, and chin are sadly disfigured , ,and fi drawn from their original position. These articial TEETH are constructed to supply this defect of nature, gradually to restore th e f eatures to that uniformit y so es sentially requisite to a youthful appea r ance a nd perfect ar ti cu lation. Loose Teeth fastened, arising either from age. disease, or mercury : and DEFICIENCIES of palate EFFEC TUALLY REMEDlED.—Artificial Teeth, out of re. pair, re-m odelled to fit the mouth , and resto r ed equa l i n BEAUTY and DURABILITY to the original state.
