NEWTON's DENTIFRICE is by far t be most
pleasant of any Powder recommended for Cleansing
and Beautifying the ; it will be found to' answer
every end that a Tooth Powder can be reasonably expeaeri
to do, Niliie It cleanses the Month of all impure and teetid
particles, it Arhitcns the Teeth, Heals tint Gums, and
IteliTs to Sweeten the Breath:
tithing is so great a drawb'tck to Tleauty as had Teeth,
nothing more ottinsive than Irvin' Breath ; Newton's Totith.
Powder, on the. first Application,' improves the fernier,
and removes the latter, while by its antiputr:scent and
balsamic qualities it prevents decay, and removes all excies.

Accounts from llourdeaux sta,tc, that great cii
satisfaction pi availed it yrani•(..

N'Ve insert thisday several* additirmal extracts
from the Paris Papers recelved on !4:atorday. They
do iu as We then stated, contain one syllable of
intelligence from the wreck of theonet Grand Army.
BUONAPAItTE AVOW, dollbtiCiS, were it pOSbiIAC,
I:,,lAdly efface from the recollection of the people of
France the events of his disastrous campaign in
Russia ; but some aecount must oltir»ately be ren-
dered, something must be told of the fate of the
iiii..erab:e remnant of that vast force which he led
lA° Russia, and there can be no doubt that the first
Inoment in which his remaining, troops could be
said to be safe, or even if only his principal of-
ficers were in a state of security, the opportunity
would be. easerly and promptly seized to make
a pompous display of some imaginary success,
tnime invented brillhAnt exploits, some events,
11.,i'ever remote from the slightest semblance of
troth, %Midi would tend to give an eclat upon
met to the last act of the French retreat. Yet
see that tstenty-seven days had elapsed since

the date of the 29th Bulletin, and twenty-five
days from the period viApri BuoNAriatry,
serted his army, and became a fugitive in disi-
and although it was asserted, th the
army was at th/nt- period in communication with
\Vilna, still no account Whatever is given of any
subsequent events. Will any one, after this,
be so -credukus as to _believe that the rem-
nant of the French army, when their leader
deserted- them, could possibly have been left in a
state of safety? Is it not rather the more pro-
bable supposition, supported by-thii absence of
all notice of the troops for so long a,,period, that
BuoNAPAaTe fled in order to avoid great im-
pending personal danger, in order to avoid
the risk of being himself , taken prisoner,
leaving to AfuttAa' and his other otli`cers. the
task of encountering in • hopeless despair the
overwhelming Russian force, which threatened
almost immediately to surround them, or to make
the beit terms,Abey could with their conquerors
when resistance became impossible. This would
at Once account for the sudden and rapid flittht of
.14JoN.ApaturE,under'an assumed name, and for the
absence of all subsequent intelligence'. from ,the
head-quarters. ,

We shall impatiently expect further accounts
from Russia, convinced that, as the preceding de-
tails gave a very different, because ei just, account
of the battle of the Beresina to that set fOrth in
the 29th Bulletin; so we shall have, from the' same
quarter, some intelligence of later events of a cha-
racter totally different, and at the same tiine inure
consistent with truth, to that whii-h the Pfench Bul-
ktin attempted to iesin►iate. The' absence of all hi-
telligence in the'Paris Paper:3, for so long .a pc,
riod, at so critical a moment, at :my rate, prove 3,
that the small remainder of the .French Grand
Army must have been le:t by their fugitive leader
in a state of great peril and difficulty.

There is, we arc assured, more of interest and
probable importance in the mission of Lord WAL-
POLE to Vienna than has hitherto been stated
We mentioned, on Saturday last, that his Lord-
ship went in cons'quence of an invitation 'from,
some of the most •distinguished persons in that
capital. These persons,we understand,' amounted
to fifteen, and; as we before siated, they sent a
passport and it letter, signifying that it was
their desire that any Englishman of distinction,who
might be at t• e RUssian Court, should hasten
to Vienna, and intimating that, as the Emperor of
AUSTRIA could not be expected to take any part
openly hostile to ,his Sun-in-law, they had been
induced to'adopt the present measure, in the crisis
Of 'affairs occasioned. by the Russtan successes, in
the hope that sown: plan might be devised for the
restoration of amity between their country and the
Russian Empire, and leading, perhaps, to more
important consequences for the general benefit of
•
Europe.

V.t: state -with -regret, that on Monday last a
Meeting was held at Nottingham:, for the purpose
of considering the propriety of Fesenting to the
PitINCE REGENT, and to both lionses of Parlia-.
meat, Petitions for the restoration of, Peace.
We need not dilate on the impolicy of en-tem-as-
h-1g the Government hysalling upon them to make
overtures to such a man as 11I.JON APARTE for peace,
after the experiment that once has been tried,
and considering the nature:l)f s:ich, a peace'as•he
would consent, under those circumstances, to
grant us if the dignity of the Britis'.) Empire
should be so committed as to solicit peace from
his hand. The Speakers at this Meeting resorted
to the hackneyed topics of America,' the state of
our manufactures; etc. all of which, as might, be
expectcd,were received with great applanse ; but,
as it was a meeting of Englishmen, we feel much
concern in adding, that When otteof the speakers,
'Mr. COLD!! Albt; the Town Clerk ,exi7- ressed his satis-
faction at the degraded conditionitywhich BuO14,1:.,
palm had retreated from his atrocious invasion of
Russia, great. '"dis4prabation was manifested by
many oftlte andienee, and when thespeaker said that
his retreat had been accompanied by the loss of
his army and disgrace,"—" No, no./ hat not,"
was vot:iferatcd loudly thyough the room. After
much declamation, in favour of the proposed
measure, Certain Resolutions were passed, and it
was i4greed, that they should be inserted. in The
Nottingham Review and Journal, but not iu The
Nottingham. Gazette, a new Paper, instituted for
the support of our best interests in Church and
Statei. but at length- this illiberal restriction was
over-ruled, and they were permitted to appear also
,in the latter. . ,
