ROWLANDS' ODONTO, or, PEARL DEN-
TIFRICE , a WHITE POWDER for the TEETH, com-
pounded of the choicest and most reserche ingredients of the Oriental
Herbal, of inestimable value for preserving and beautifying the
Teeth and strengthening the Gums. It extirpates all tartarous adhe-
sions to the Teeth, and ensures a pearl-like whiteness to the ena-
melled surfac,..!. Its Anti. Septic and AntDscorbutie Properties arrest
the further progress of decay of the Teeth, induce a healthy action of
the Gums, and cause them to assume the brightness and colour indi-
cative of perfect soundness. The Breath also attains a fragrant
sweetness truly grateful to its possessor. Its truly efficient and
fragrant aromatic properties have obtained its 'election by the Court
and Royal Family of Great Britain, and the Sovereigns and Mobility
throughout Europe, while the general demand at ono* announces the
favour in which it is universally held. Price 2m. 94. per box.

THE PERFECT SUBSTITUTE for SILVER.
The high estimate formed by the public during the twelve
years WILLIAM S. BURTON'S (late It irros and BURTON'S)
chemically purified material has been before it (made into every
useful and ornamental article usually made in silver, possessing, as
it does, the eharaeteristic purity and durability of silver), has called
into existence the deleterious compoencts of "Albata Plate," " Berlin
Si:ver," and other so called substitutes; they are at best but bad
imitations of the genuine article. manufactured, and sold only by him.

superior to what can be supplied at any other house, while by no

THE PAST YEAR AND THE PRESENT
YE AR.—A DIALOG*.
On last New Teat's evening, the past year and present
Shook hands, and convers'd in a style rather pleasant.
" How d'ye do?" said the Old Year, addressing the New ;
Weil, I'm nicely, I thank you, old friend, how are you?"
Thus awhile did they chat, and, before they had done,
They touch'd on the projects of MOSES and SON.
" I have often felt proud (said the 'feet* that is past),
When a glance on the warehouse of MO-ES I cast ;
For this vast speculation—this trading domain—
Onen'd all its vast peered. a during my reign.
Whenever I look at this mercantile throne
I rejoice that my honours will rival your own."
• Stop! stop (said the Pre-ent Year), talk not so fast,
I'll prove that the present shall rival the past.
Although in your ' mayoralty' much has been done
By tho-e wonderful tradesmen, E. MOSES and SON,
Don't suppose for one instant that less will appear
At MOSES and SON'S in the present new year.
ON ! ON r is the maxim on which they would fix,
And thus will they rival the year Forty-six.
The year Forty-seven, long, long ere It cicses
Will add a fresh wreath to the laurel of MOSES.

ONE WORD OF THANKS.
On an annual occasion like this we would thank
Our numberless patrons, whatever their rank ;
Our warmest acknowledgments let us express,
Since the Forty-six has display'd such success;
And let us make promise that much shill be done,
As a public return by E. MOSES and SON.

C OPY of a LETTER from WILLIAM
COURTNEY, Esq.
To Mr. Tnoxis TROUT, 229, Strand, London.
Church Farm, Barton Stacey, near Andover Railway
Station, Hants, October 26, 1844.
_

Sir,—l cannot help expressing my astonishment in the effect I have
experienced in taking your Pills for the Gout. I was taken on Thurs-
day night so severely with it as to be with difficulty able to get ou,
of my bed, and atter I arose I had severe pains, followed on with in-
flammation of the foot increasing. I took three of your Pills, and
within two hours I found the pain to entirely cease. I afterwards
took two Pills at a dose twice in the day, and I am, thank God, this
morning able to walk without the slightest inconvenience. I found in
a previous very severe attack very great relief; I had the pains in
my knees and thighs so very severe at that time, I thought I must
have died, and that it must have gone into my stomach. At that
time I had resort to your Pills, and they relieved me—within two
hours I was quite easy. The use of these Pills ought, really, to be
Irriown all over the world. I have a brother, a young man, that
suffers horribly with it, and his greatest relief and preventive has
seen your Pills. ➢fake what use you please of my report. —Yours
ruly and respectfully, WILLIAM COURTNEY.

Among the many discoveries that characterise the present age, none
have contributed so much to the comfort and ease of the community,
nor conferred such a boon upon suffering humanity, as the impor-
tant discovery of BLAIR'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PILLS,
the efficacy of which has been tested by the approval and recom-
mendation of many of the greatest men of on: day. They are effec-
tive for gout and rheumatism, in all its various forms, including
sciatica, lumbago, pains in the head and face, frequently t reated as
ooth-ache, &c. They require neither confinement nor attention of
any kind, and invariably prevent the disease attacking the stomach,
brain, or other vital part.

Sold by Thomas Prout, 229, Strand. London ; an by his appoint-
ment, by all respectable medicine vendors throughout the United
Kingdom. Price 23. 9d. per box.
Ask for BLAIR'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PILLS, and ob-

FOUR YOUNG MEN DROWNED.
An inquest was taken before Mr. Whitinarsh on
Tuesday last, at Allcannings, on view of the bodies of
Henry Withers, 21 years of age; William Page, 19 years
of age; Francis Cowdry, 18 years of age; and Stephen
Green, 18 years of age, who came by their death under
the following circumstances:--these young men were of
fine stature, and averaged nearly six feet each.
(the survivor), who is between 17 and 18 years of age,
that on Sunday last, about six o'clock, he and the above
unfortunate individuals left Allcannings for a walk,
when they went to Stanton St. Bernard, which is a mile
and a half off. They proceeded by the Kenneth and
Avon Canal, and at times walked on the ice, till they
reached Stanton, where they remained a while, and left
at half-past eight to return home. About a quarter of
a mile from Stanton, on their way back, as they were
all walking upon the canal, the ice broke, when they
fell into the water. All was silence directly, and witness
saw no more of his companions. In sinking, he caught
hold of the edge of some old ice, and remained for some
time in this position, till at last with much difficulty he
raised one leg on the ice, and after much delay and great
effort he was enabled to get up the other, and then he
crawled to the bank ; but it was some time before he
could stand, being so cold and weak. Afterwards he
went to Allcannings, which he reached about 10 o'clock,
and gave information of what had taken place. Their
friends and relations immediately went to the spot, where
they saw the hats of the deceased on the water, and re.
turned for the morning, when the bodies were taken out
of the canal. Henry Withers was found in an uprighi
position, and his hair was frozen to the top of the ice.
Verdict, " Accidentally drowned."
All were unmarried men. They had, we understand,
been to the house of Thomas Broomham, at Stanton,
where they drank six quarts of beer between them, but it
is stated that they left sober.
The following is from a correspondent:—
On Sunday night last, five young men, of the parish
of Allcannings, returning from Stanton, were rash
enough to venture on the canal, the ice of which is daily
broken by the barges. Still they went upon it, whether
to slide or merely to cross the water is not known, and
were instantly immersed, and soon sank to rise no more.
One of the party, however, escaped, through the mercy
of God, after struggling for about an hour, and by the
help of the masses of ice around him, finally reached
the shore. What overwhelming sorrow to the families
of these deceased youths this fearful visitation has occa-
sioned may too easily be conceived. Nor should the
voice of God, here admonishing the young, both of tile
uncertainty of life and of the value of each returning
Sabbath, be speedily forgotten.—Devizes Gazette.
