SCURVY IN THE GUMS EFFECTUALLY REMOVED. LOOSE TEETH FASTENED. And Filling Decayed Teeth with Mineral Succedaneum. Mons. JAMES M. and S. MALLAN, Surgeon Dentists, respectfully inform the Nobility, Gentry, and Inhabitants of Liverpool and its vicinity, that they have opened an Esta blishment, permanently, at No. 23, RODNEY-STREET, opposite Leece-street, where Mons. Malian may be consulted on MONDAYS, TUESDAYS, and WEDNESDAYS, in every week throughout the year. They continue to fill up the cavities of Decayed Teeth with their Mineral Marrnoratran, 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, preventing and curing the Toothe-ache, arresting all further progress of decay, and rendrring 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 Tceth and Gums, there are none more destructive in their effects, or more generally prevalent, than Scurvy ; and it is well-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 it is the primary cause of Tooth-ache and decay. To those so affected, Mons. JAMES M. and S. MALLAN have to inform them, that they can effectually remove this destructive com plaint by a single application, with the slightest pain. Mons. MALLAN begs to introduce to the notice of his Patients and the Public, an entire new description of IN CORRODIBLE ARTIFICIAL TEETH, and with con fidence guarantee them to answer every purpose of Mastica tion and Articulation, and defy detection from the closest observer. They never change colour or break, as those now used, are fixed without wires or ligatures, and have no un pleasant odour or unnatural gloss. This method does not require the extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and will give support and preserve Teeth that are loose, at fixed and moderate Charges. Loose Teeth fastened, arising either from age, di s ease, or mercury, and deficiencies of palate effect ua lly r emedied. Artificial Teeth out of repair, remodelled t o fit the mouth, and restored equal in beauty and durability t o th e ir original state. Attendance from Nine till Six. 252 4 10 *** For the convenience of country patients, Messrs. JAMES M. & S. MALLAN are enabled to fix a partial or complete set of Teeth at one sitting, without the least pain or inconvenience. No. 23, Rodney-street, opposite Leece-street. MILK PUNCH ROYAL! MANUFACTURER OF MILK PUNCH TO HER MAJESTY. THIS unique and nectarious Liqueur has, for nearly a century, been duly appreciated at CHICHESTER AND THE METROPOLIS. It was at the former place where the original projector of this delectable beverage had his abode • no doubt the corporat ion of that ancient borough evinced their good taste, and marked their approbation of this GREAT DISCOVERY, by presenting to him the freedom of the town; but with that the present generation have nothing to do ; suffice it to say', that this ELIXIR is now, for the very first time, introduced to the notice of the bon vivants of the northern parts of this great Kingdom for their judgment. o f its It would be quite in vain to enter into any letal d excellencies, yet, thus far may be vouched, that it is comp pesein of the best materials, without any adulteration, an d , the flavour, possesses the combined sweetness of the Grap e, fragrance of th.-Lime, with the exhiliration of Champagne and while THE LORDS OF THE CREATION will find it an excellent addenda to the Dinner Table, THE GENTLER SEX may not disdain to. sip, the more so as ROYALTY has acknowledged its transcendant merit. It has been intimated that it will prevent SEA SICKNESS, but of that we will not vouch, never having cro ssed the " briny deep" with it in our possession; but should not Pro prietors of PACKET-SHIPS AND STEAMVRS take the hint ? And although it may not produce that " con summation devoutly to be wished," yet, sure we are, its grateful properties are such as will be found to bean excellent restorative to the palates and stomachs of those who suffer from the effects of a sea voyage. It will keep . in any climate, and possesses that sure criterion of genuine excellence, improves by age. LE GRAND GOURMAND will find it a most social companion to his Calepash and Calepee, and the temperate man, while he masticates his biscuit over a glass of it, will be constrain ed to eulogise this incomparable Liqueur. " Come and try, Don't like--don't buy," is an old saying and a good one; and as in matters of taste every man is the be s t judge, this invitation is given in the full assurance that, if the Milk Punch only finds its vray to the palate, it will quickly be acknowledged to stand A 1 amongst the list of those good things which cheer the heart of mankind.

BONUS. At the Annual General Court of Proprietors, held on the 20th June, 1839, bonuses were declared to the assured in the Fire Department of £lO per cent. on the premiums received during the five years previous to the 25th March, 1839, to be paid on all insurances of two, or more, years standing; and to the assured in the Life Department, on all policies for the whole duration of life, of four or more years standing, on the 25th March, 1839, of very nearly 26 per cent. on the amount of the premiums received thereon, improved at compound interest, to be added to the sum assured by such policies when they become claims, or an equi va l ent reduction to be made in the annual premiums upon them, at the option of the parties entitled thereto, CAPTAIN PIDDING'S TEAS. THE accounts lately received from Macao, brought intelli gence of the English having been totally expelled from China, and that hostilities had actually commenced between Her Majesty's forces, directed by her S uper i nten d ent in person, and Chinese men of war; in other words, China is at war with England. And the questions upon which the two countries are now at issue being of s uc h diffi cult adjust ment as to render it almost impossible, and certainly impro bable, that any more teas can be obtained from China for a very considerable period, a great rise in all descriptions of that article has taken place. Since June last, common black teas have risen is. 9d., and fine green, 3s. per lb. Fine Hyson, with duty, fetched at the late public sales, 9s. 7d. per lb. ; tine black teas as high as Os. 7d., whilst up to this mo ment, Captain Pidding has continued to allow his teas to be sold without any advance whatever. The late great rise, however, having caused a run upon his teas by the trade, who found that they could purchase them cheaper retail than they could buy inferior teas wholesale, he is compelled to raise the price, to prevent his remaining stock being purchased by tea dealers. For the present, Captain Pidding's How- QUA'S MIXTURE will be sold at the rate of Os. 9d. per lb., being 9s. the catty, or an advance of only 9d. per lb., when the commonest teas, since June, have advanced Is. 9d. per lb. HOWQUA'S SMALL LEAF GUNPOWDER will he sold, for the present, at 9s. 9d. per lb., when even Hyson, an inferior tea, is fetching, wholesale, 9s. 7d. per lb. Half and quarter catties in like proportions. Captain Pidding thinks it right to inform the public that his Chinese correspondent states confidently, that there is no probability of the trade opening with that country, for, at the least, twelve months ; and as the e n ti re stock of consumable tea in Great Britain will be exhausted before that period, there is little doubt but tea will advance daily. These Teas consist of Captain Pidding's HOWQUA'S MIXTURE, of 40 rare Black Teas, and HOWQUA'S SMALL LEAF GUN POWDER,in Chinese Catty Packages. N.l3.—The signature of " Captain JOHN RHODES Pxn- DING" is upon every genuine package. GEO. CARLYLE, Repository, 38, 80ld -street, Sole Agent for LIVERPOOL. Bolton G. J. French, Silk Mercer.
