ZEITTER and CO., Nos. 4 and 5, Ncw
Cavendish-street , Portland-place, acknowledge with
gratitute the diztingui,hed and extended patronage which has
been accorded to their celebrated PATENT GRAND PIA-
NOFOR TES. The principle upon which they are constructed
has now become so well known, and its superiority so generally
admitted, that to enlarge upon it is utterly superfluous. Their
present object is to apprise the nobility, gentry, and public,
that they have applied all their admired improvements to Cabi-
net, Cottage, and Piccolo Pianofortes, for which description of
instruments they are ready to receive orders at prices not ex-

THE RECENT MURDER IN

MORAYSHIRE.

_...._
No information has reached us of the apprehension
of Peter Cameron, the supposed perpetrator of the late
barbarous and unnatural murder, in the parish of
Knockando. He was traced across the bids to Dallas,
ind at this place he entered a house and asked for a
hat or bonnet, having, he said, lost his own la)
an accident on - the road. lie was still at Dallas or
Wednesday morning three days after his escape. A
person answering the description was afterwards seen on
the Highland road, and it is conjectured that he had tra-
velled through Badenoch, and by the Laggan road to
Fort William, whence he could sail by the steam boat on
Thursday to Glasgow. The circumstances tending to fix
the guilt of this crime on Cameron are considered clear
and decisive. Ale deceased, Alexander Tulloch, had
been heard to express some dread of his son-in-law ;
especially after the latter had persuaded his wife to go
to Forfarshire, on a visit to her sister. The fierce, ma-
lignant looks which Cameron occasionally threw at his
father-in-law, without saying a word, struck him with
alarm. On the night of the murder Tulloch had gone
to visit Mrs. Beaton, the person to whom he was about
to be married, and the murderer is supposed to have
waited for him by the road-side. A severe struggle
ensued. The grass is much trampled, and there are
several foot-prints corresponding exactly with Ca-
meron's shoes. Having overpowered the unfor-
tunate man, he had dragged him to a burn, which
was swollen with the late rains, under the im-
pression probably that the body would be carried off to
the river Spey. A shirt of Cameron's was found under
his bed, the sleeves of which were wet to the elbow. It
is a striking fact that the suspected murderer made great
pretensions to piety, and acted as a catechist in the
country. On the night alter the murder, he performed
family worship as usual, ie the presence of several of the
neighbours, while the - n led bAtArren=gisoitlst,er-in-
law lay in the-tooth: mow
he did not invoke the vengeance of the Deity oo
the ruthless perpetrator of the crime, nor express
any hope that he would be apprehended and brought
to justice. The escape of Cameron, though little
creditable to the persons in charge, is palliated by
some circumstances. He was under the charge of five
men. The head officer went out of the room about
five o'clock on Sunday morning, locking the door
after him, upon which the prisoner asked permission
to retire to a close wooden bed which stood in the apart-
ment. This was improperly granted, without any no-
tice being taken of the circumstance, and the prisoner
instantly opened a door at the back of the bed, and let
himself out by a closet window. The men heard the
fall, but they could not get out of the room, the door
being locked by the superintendent. Some time elapsed
before an alarm could be given, and in the grey light of
the morning, the villain, hatless and in haste, ran unob-
served to the woods.—lnverness Courier.

CAUTION TO PERSONS NEGLECT-
IJ THEIR TEETH AND GUMS.
EXTRACT FROM MONS. LE DRAY'S " TREATISE ON LOSS OF
TEETH."

Among the various disorders of the Mouth, there is none
more destructive than Scurvy, which on first entering the Gums
eauses them to bleed on the most trifling occasions, and pro-
duces the most offensive and frequently putrid breath. A
soft substance invariably accumulates around the necks
of the Teeth, penetrates into the Gums, which gradually
waste away, and the Teeth then becoine loose, and
drop out whole from their sockets, and it is well known that
the loss of Teeth arises more from this cause than any other.

On this subject a distinguished Lecturer makes the following
observations :—" When the disgusting effects of this accumu-
lation are considered, it would appear impossible that any per-
suasion could be necessary to induce persons to obviate so great
a nuisance even on their own account : or if they are too de-
based to procure their own comfort and cleanliness by employ-
ing a skilful Dentist, they surely have no right to shock the
senses of ethers, who possess more delicacy and propriety of
feeling than themselves. Yet, so it is ; and the sight and the
smell are alike constantly outraged by the filthiness of some
people, who seem to obtrude their faces the closer in proportion
to the disgust which they occasion."—Bell's Lectures, p. 199.
Could such persona_ only see the horrid state of their teeth
and gums, or for a moment catch die
breath, they would not hesitate to seek immediate relief. To
professional men, shop-keepers, and tradesmen generally, who
have much intercourse with the refined and fashionable world,
a good state of the mouth must be of the greatest importance !
Besides, is not an offensive breath, which in nineteen cases out
of twenty proceeds from the bad state of the teeth and gums,
very much calculated to prevent the blessing of matrimony?
And how often, from inadvertence or neglect, is the happiness
of the marriage state most grievously interupted by the same
cause ? . •

The inconveniencies attending the Loss of Teeth are too
well known to require comment, but to those who have not ex-
perienced the comfort of Artificial Teeth, Monsieur Le Dray
is desirous of showing some of the difficulties more or less en-
dured by every individual without them. When the Teeth are
lost, it is impossible to make use of solid food; and if the
stomach is then loaded with pieces without beeng masticated,
the patient is exposed to the most distressing iraigestions, the
stomach loses its power of contraction, and becomes weak in
proportion as it no longer digests; besides, when the Teeth
are gone, a great vacuum is left in the mouth, which occasions
every muscle in the face to be distorted, and the whole features
are completely drawn from their original position.
To insist on the importance of th teeth, whether in regard
to the functions of digestion and articulation, to which they
are so essential, or to personal appearance, in which they are
so much concerned, must appear a waste of words, were it not
obvious that there are many persons who never give themselves
the trouble to think upon the subject ; who seem scarcely
aware that they possess teeth at all, while their gross and cul-
pable negligence renders that fact too apparent to their friends
and associates.
Mastification is the first process of digestion, and unless it
be duly performed, the subsequent processes can never go on
properly.
So essential is this preparatory process, that the neglect of it
is sufficient to occasion indigestion, a disordered stomach, ner-
vous debility, depression of spirits, the skin becomes rou,/h and
tinged of a lead colour, the eyes lose their brilliancy, the lips
their vermillion hue, and, in a word, it is no uncommon thing
for the whole body to receive such a shock as to cause re-
laxation of the whole system, which produces an irritable
temper, quite foreign to the natural disposition, whereby
we become an annoyance to our friends, and a burthen
to ourselves. But I need not dwell upon the num-
berless concomitant evils which may thus owe their
origin to imperfect mastication. It is sufficient to
know that Monsieur Le Dray's improvements will be
found to be many years in advance of any system now in Eu-
rope,.and that artificial teeth are brought to such perfection, at
his Establishment, No. 60, Newman-street, Oxford-street, as
to perform this function in a manner equal in every respect to
the natural teeth, and may be used with every comfort. They
are so arranged as to restore the lace to its former youthful
cast, correcting all deformities of the mouth, and entirely doing
away with the old system of springs, clasps, and wires.
As an essential point of beauty, the teeth must ever stand
pre-eminent. No regularity of features, no brilliancy of com-
plexion, no sparkling eyes, or silken braids of jetty hair, 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.
Regular teeth, white, and free from all extraneous matter,
are an ornament equally attractive in either sex. Those per-
sons who do not possess this natural advantage, should en-
deavour, by extreme care and eleaminess, and a timely resort
to artificial rid, to remedy the imperfections, and supply the
deficiencies of nature, in order that their teeth, if not an agree-
able object, may be prevented, as far as possible, from becoming
a repulsive one.
Monsieur LE DRAY, Surgeon-Dentist, 60, Newman-street,
Oxford-street, respectfully acquaints the Nobility, Gentry,
Clergy, and the inhabitants of London and its vicinity, that he
continues to restore Decayed Teeth with his celebrated Mine-
ral Marmoratum, so universally recommended by the Faculty
of England, France, and throughout the Continent, which
substance he is sole inventor and possessor of. The ope-
ration is performed without the least pain ; it is placed into
the cavity in an almost liquid state, and in a few seconds
hardens into enamel, preventing and curing the Tooth Ache,
arresting all further progress of decay, allaying in one minute
the most excruciating pain, and rendering the operation of ex-
traction unnecessary. Ile also fastens loose Teeth, particularly
of aged persons, whether arising from neglect, the use of calo-
mel, disease of the gums, or any other cause.
ARTIFICIAL or NATURAL TEETH of surpassing
beauty, to match equal in colour and shape those left in the
mouth, fixed from one to a complete set, without extracting

nature, that the closest observer cannot detect the difference,
with this advantage, that they never change colour, decay, or
wear out, at the following Paris charges :

TATTERSALL'S-YESTERDAY.

A considerable number of subscribers attended yester.
day at the Corner, in the double hope of settling their
Newmarket accounts, and adding a little to their Derby
books before retiring into winter quarters. Some pro-
gress was made in each, but not to a satisfactory extent,
as money came in slowly; some did not attend at all, and
nearly all the speculators on the Derby seemed disposed
to play the same game. The fluctuations, notwithstand-
ing, were of some importance, the Rosalie colt hav-
ing, in the course of the afternoon, receded from
16 to 20 to 1, Eringo remaining first favourite.
Coronation and Ralph were backed, without undergoing
any change; but Marshal Soult advanced five points, the
last bet laid against him being 1,000 to 50. Sir Flans was
a shade worse, and the Duke of Wellington, after finding
favour to two or three hundreds, at 30 to 1, dropt three
points, and, despite his glorious name, had plenty of enc.
mica. Several other horses were backed, but not to an
amount to call for any remarks. The final quotations were
as follow

MR. EWART, M.P. FOR WIGAN.

On Thursday Mr. Evart visited Wigan, and on the
following evening addressed a large body of the inhabi-
tants in the ball-room behind the Victoria Hotel. He
was accompanied by nearly the whole of the influentia
Liberals of the borough and neighbourhood, among
whom were R. Thickness, jnn., Esq., Thomas Part,
it rlph Leigh, James Bancks, Esq., and, the whole of the
borough and several of the county Magistrates. Joseph
Acton, Esq., Mayor, having b-en called to the chair by
acclamation, introduced the Hon. Gentleman to the
dense multitude, who received him with loud applause.
We regret that we eau find room for only an outline of
his speech. He adverted at considerable length to the
excellent conduct of the Irish people, and the vast num-
bers opposed to their interests in the Lords and Com-
mons, defended the principles of free trade, denounced
the Corn-laws as oppressive and unjust, supported
though they were by so many Lords, Bishops, and
Coarmoners, and congratulated the meeting r n
the progress education had made within a kw years,
and on the blessings which it was vet destined to confer
on the great body of the people. The following is a part
of his speech, which was received with great approba-
tion :—" Since I had the honour last of standing before
you circumstances have lately transpired which tend to
disturb the calmness of the political horizon, and to
withdraw from us the divine blessing of peace. Since
the darkness has gathered, which has thus threatened
to disturb the blessing of peace, which we have
now so long enjoyed, no public circumstance has
afforded me. an opportunity of adding my testimony
in favour of its long continuance. My declaration is in
favour of universal peace.—(Great cheering.) Your

DINNER TO THE MAYOR OF

MANCHESTER.

(From the Manchester Guardian.)
We have already noticed the intention of the mem-
!)ers of the Town Council to give a dinner to Sir ;Thos.
Potter, the first Mayor of Manchester, during the period
)f his mayoralty (which terminates on Monday week).

the high sense they entertain of his official services. The
nvitation was conveyed to Sir Thomas, and accepted ;
ind yesterday seas fixed for the dinner. The room se
'ected was the large one at Hayward's Hotel, Bridge-
street ; and, under the very tasteful and judicious ma-
nagement of Mr. Doveston, upholsterer, it underwent
for the occasion a complete metamorphosis. The side
door, and the one at the upper end—each opening to
ante-room—were closed, and ingeniously hidden from
view ; that at the upper end of the room by some
splendid plates of looking-glass, draperied with festoons
of crimson cloth, and surmounted by a fine wood
carving of the Royal Arms, lighted by gas branches.
On each side of the Royal Arms was a small silk
banner, with the arms of Manchester emblazoned on
them, and the motto " Free Trade." Similar ban-
ners were placed in corresponding situations at the
bottom of the room. The side-door was concealed
from view by Bradley's very striking full-length por-
trait of Sir Thomas Potter, painted for Mr. Alderman
Brooks, in a handsome frame, draperied with crimson
cloth. All the windows were curtained for the occa-
sion with crimson cloth ; the centre of the floor within
the quadrangle formed by the tables, was carpeted by
the same material ; and the floor round the tables was
covered with India matting. A portion of the lower
part of the room was converted by a wooden partition
into a passage for waiters. 'I he inside of the parti-
tion was hung with crimson cloth, and in the centre
was a transparency of the Royal arms. We have al-
ready stated, that the tables formad a quadrangle ; the
