1-1,0 the same Proprietor postponed until the said Quarterly
"enr;ral Court the following motion, of which he had also
presiously given notice
That there be laid before this Court a copy of the Order in
k"ouncil, or other Act of the Indian Government, awarding
(on the abolition of the Pilgrim Tax), to the Rajah of Khoor-
slab, or other authority connected uith the Temple of Jugker-
mingt, the sum of 50,000 Rupees, or 5,000/. per annum for the
'ore. '-
The said COURT of DIRECTORS do likewise further
Tire notice, that another Proprietor has intimated his intentig;,
to submit the following motion at the said Quarterly General
Court, viz.:—
" That this Court receives with much thankfulness and satis-
faction the notification from the Honourable Court of Directors,
by the papers laid on the Proprietors' table, of the entire aboli-
tion of the Pilgrim Tax at. Allahabarl, Gya, and Juggernaut,
and of the future management of dne temples having been
made over to the natives. It also perceives, with unfeigned
pleasure, the reference made in paragraph 14 of the Directors'
despatch of the tld June last, to the removal of existing
`grounds of religious scruples on the part of the Company's
terrains, especially at 'Madras ; and further desires to express
its confident hope that the Honourable Court will not cease to
Rive its continued attention to that important object till it be
Tully attained, and until, in all matters relating to their religious
practices and ceremonial observances, the natives be left entirely
to themselves." _

Among the various disorders of the Mouth, there is none
more destructive than Scurvy. which on first entering the Gums
atises, them to lal•Jed on the most trifling occasions, and pro-
duces the mos't offensive and frequently putrid breath. A

'`Oenr this subject a distinguished Lecturer makes the following
"lt-
be rations :—" When the disgusting effects of this accumu-
ion are considered, it would appear impossible that any per-
uastun could be necessary to induce persons to obviate so great
nuisance even on their own account t or if they are too de-
based to procure their own comfort and cleanliness by emploe..

knell are alike constantly outraged by the filthiness of some
'People, who seem to obtrude their faces the closer in proportion
xo the disgust which they occasion."-43ell's Lectures, p. 199.
Would such persons only see the horrid state of their teeth

esides, is not an offensive breath, which in nineteen cases out
41 twenty proceeds from the bad state of the teeth and gums,
eery much calculated to prevent the blessing of matrimony?
f,d, how often, from inadvertence or neglect, is the happiness

fie?

The inconvenieneies attending the Loss of Teeth are too

II II known to require comment, but to those who have not ex-
terienced the comfort of Artificial Teeth, Monsieur Le Dray
d 1 desirous of showing some of the difficulties more or less en •
lured by every individual without them. When the Teeth are
legit it is impossible to make use of solid food ; and if the
IQ:reach is then loaded with pieces without being masticated,
e Patient is exposed to the most distressing indigestions, the
IColllaeh loses its power of contraction, and becomes weak in
proportion as it no longer digests ; besides, -when the Teeth
are Sane, a great vacuum is left in the month, which occasions
every muscle in the face to be distorted, and the whole features
arecompletely drawn from their original rasition.
to '0 insist on the importance of the te,ett, whether in regard
are the functions of digestion and arttculation, to which they
; so essential, or to personal arepearance, in which they are
eh!!'ach.conaerned, must apPrdar a waste of words, were it not
`nous that there are mar,3
persons who never give themselves

-13,-Ktficatinn is the first process of digestion, and unless it
duly performed, the subsequent processes can never go on
Ptnyrrly.
essential is this preparatory process, that the neglect of it
2_usufficient to occasion indigestion, a disordered stomach, ner-
.7l s debility, depression of spirits, the skin becomes rough and
Inge(' of a lead colour, the eyes lose their brilliancy, the lips
r:neir vermillion hue, and, in a word, it is no uncommon thing
the whole body to receive such a shock as to cause re-
laxation of the whole system, which produces an irritable
!Pilfer, quite foreign to the natural disposition, whereby
we become an annoyance to our friends, and a burthen
10 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 he many years advance of any systm now in Eu-
rope, and that artificial teeth ate broughtto. such perfection,set,

Els Establishment, No. 60, Newman-street, such
?to perform this function in a manner equal in every 7esrpeeec't to
the natural teeth, and may be used with every comfort. They
are so arranged as to restore the face to its former youthful
cast, correcting all deformities of the mouth, and entirely doing
"..way with the old system of springs, clasps, and wires.
As an essential point of beauty, the teeth must ever stan _
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
1100t1 set of teeth. A mouth large and ill-formed will pass
`unnoticed, when it contains teeth beautifully white and even.
011 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-
tuns who do not possess this natural advantage, should en-
deavour, by extreme care and cleanliness, and a timely resort
to artificial rid, to remedy the imperfections, and surlily the
'deficiencies of nature, in order that their teeth, if not an agree-
able object, may be prevented, as far as possible, from isecorninp
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 Marmsratum, so universally recommended by the Faculty
of England, France, and throughout the Continent, which
substance be is sole inventor and possessor of. The ope 7.
ration is performed without the least pain ; it is placed into
the cavity in an almost liquid state, and in a few seconds
stardetis 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.
