G ENTLEM rtic
AVING been called upon by a numerous
and respectable body of the Electors to become a Can-
didate for the Eastern Division of the County of Surrey, I
accept the invitation under a deep sense of the arduous and
responsible duties of a representative of the people.
My votes in Parliament are already recorded in favour of the
Ballot and •f the Grant for the Education of the People, carried
into effect by her Majesty's Government.
Although the property I possess is almost exclusively in Land,
I warmly advocate a Total Repeal of the Corn-laws, and believe
that it would not only confer the greatest benefit on the Trading
and Commercial Classes of the United Kingdom, but that it
would be scarcely less advantageous to the Agricultural Interest
in general.
I am devotedly attached to our established Constitution in
Church and State, while I cheerfully concede to all who differ
from me in religious opinion the same liberty of conscience that
I claim for myself.
I consider an alteration of the present system of Church-
rates indispensible, and 1 trust that a measure will be intro-
duced during the approaching Session to place the Ecclesiastical
Courts on such an improved footing, as will prevent a repetition
of the late vexatious proceedings.
In the event of my having the honour to be chosen one of
your Representatives in Parliament, you may confidently rely
an the faithful discharge of my duty, and that I will endeavour
to promote, by every means in my power, both your local in-
terests, and the welfare of the Nation at large.
I am, Gentlemen, your faithful and obedient Servaat,
THOMAS ALCOCK.

CAUTION TO PERSONS NEGLECT-
ING THEIR TEETH AND GUMS.
RETRACT FROM MONS. LE DRAYS " 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
causes 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 become loose, and
drop out whole from their sockets, and it is well known that
he 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 accumn-
tion are con.iidered, 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 others, 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 persons only see the horrid state of their teeth
and gums, or for a moment catch the odour of their own
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 sot 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 imarriage state most grievously interupted by the same
cause 7
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 being masticated,
the patient is exposed to the most distressing in.tigestions, the
stomach loses its power of contraction, and becomes weak in
proportion as it no longer digests ; besides, when the Teeth
Aire 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 the teeth, whether in regard
to the functions of digestion and articulation, to which they
aro 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 tha fact too apparent to their friends

And associates.
Mastitication 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 rough 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 ;13 e brought to such perfection, at
the Establishment, No. 60, Newman-street, Oxford-street, as
to' perform this function in a manner equal in every respect to
the natural teeth, awl 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
away with the old system of springs, clasps, and wires.
As an essential point of beauty, the teeth must ever stair.
Pre-eminent. No regularity of features, no brilliancy of om-
plexion, no sparkling eyes, or silken braids of jetty hair can
render that lady beautiful, who when she opens her lips
(theiigh 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,
ire an ornament equally attractive in either sex. These per-
sons who do not possess this natural advantage, should en-
deavour, by extreme care and cleanliness, and a timely resort
to artificial aid, to remedy the imperfections, and supply the
deficiencies of nature, in order that their teeth, if not an agree-

greatly relieved before I reached my home. I can with truth
assert, and make oath if required to do so, that it was your Eve-
Snuff cured me. Shal be happy to answer any inquiry.
