NOW EXHIMTING, AT THE

FGYPTIAN HALL, PICCADILLY,
,4 the most EXTRAORDINARY EXHIBITION of ABORI-
GI •ES EVER SEEN in EUROPE, landed in Liverpool by the
brig Fanny, Captain Wheeler.
TWO MEN, TWO WOMEN, and a BABY, of the BOSIESMAN
or BUSH TRIBE, from the interior of South Africa, a race that,
from their wild habits, could never before be induced to visit a place
of civilization. This opportunity of gratifying the man of science
and the student in zoology bas only been obtained by great personal
exertion on the part of the gentlemen who have brought them to
England, at an immense outlay of capital. 'On the passage to Europe
a baby was born at sea, thus adding to the great interest that must
be excited by their appearance.
From the Liverpool Journal : —" Bosjesmans, or Bush People, from
Southern Africa—lnteresting specimens of a most extraordinary race
of human beings have been landed in our port ; they are the Bosjes-
mans, or Bush People from the Interior of South Africa, of which so
mach has been written by the missionaries, and the few who have
travelled to that far distant region. They are natives of the country
bordering the Great Orange River, 1,200 or 1,400 miles from Cape
Town. They exhibit almost as striking an absence of the intelle,tual or
higher faculties as is observable in the skull of that mockery of
numanity, the Baboon, while the preponderance of the animal is al-
most equally as great. In every respect they are calculated to excite
the greatest astonishment, and to confirm to the fltil those " Tales
of Travellers" which we have certainly been inclined to look upon
with suspicion. We could scarcely have credited that such a race
could be in existence on the earth. That they are genuine no one
can doubt ; in proof of which we give the following extract
Cape Town Paper of the 24th December, which we hae Justmrea
ceived We understand the brig Fanny, Captain Wheeler, which.
recently left Table Bay tbr Liverpool, had on board an unusual kind
of exportation, viz., twe males and two females of the genuine Bush,
man species; they are in charge of a Mr. J. 0. B. Bishop, who has
been at considerable trouble and expense in procuring them from the
interior. They are authentic specimens of this diminutive and ra-
pidly decreasing tribe of Aborigines, found only in Southern Africa.
For particulars of the habits and disposition of the Bosjesmans,
see Professor Leichtenstein's, Barchell's, Campbell's, Backhouse's,
Alethune's, and Moffatt's Travels in South Africa.
Admission One Shilling, and Reserved Seats Two Shillings and
Sixpence.

A NEW DISCOVERY IN TEETH.

MR. HOWARD, Surgeon Dentist, 52, Fleet-
street, has introduced an ENTIRELY NEW DES:MI i'-
TION of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires, or
ligatures. They so perfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be
distinguished from the originals by the closest observer; they will
never change col,ur or Cecay, and will be found very superior to any
teeth ever before used. This method does not require the extraction
of roots, or any painful operation, and will support and preserve
teeth that are loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and
mastication; and, that Mr. Howard's improvement may be within
reach of the most economical, he has fixed his charges at the lowest
scale possible. Decayed teeth rendered sound and useful in mastica-
tion.-52, Fleet-street. At Home from Ten till Five.
