EDITED BY THE Rev. STEPHEN SAACSON, M.A.
ei
IT is intended that this great Nati e Work shall comprise
1 a series of Portraits, accompani r with brief Memoirs, of
the Archbishops, Bishops, and other living Dignitaries and
Clergymen of the United Church of England and Ireland,
both here and in our Colonies, the Episcopal Church of
Scotland, and that interesting branch of the Protestant
Episcopal Church now flourishing in the United States of
America ; and the distinguished patronage with which this
undertaking has been already honoured, inspires the Pro-
prietors with confidence that it will be highly sts•eptahle to
the nation at large, as well as to the members of our Yellen-
ble and Apostolic Church.
The value of this Work will be obvious to all who desire
to see the sacred ties of Christian affection drawn more closely
hetxve, the respective ordftrs am?, ranks of the Clergy and
their Ciaugregatiolfs: . To the Ceriy Who may wish to possess
Fortratts of the Bishops who ordained them, and are-" over
them iu the Lord," and likeivise of their College and Clerical
friends ; and of living authors whom they have read and
esteem, the present Work will be full of interest and pleasure.
To Parochial Congregations also it will afford high gratifica-
tion to be able individually to possess themselves of a faithful
Portrait of the Pastor from whom they receive the advantages
of religious instruction and spiritual consolation, and whom
they have been led to " esteem highly for his work's sake."
The numerous Lay friends and relatives of the Clergy will
also have an opportunity of obtaining accurate Portraitures
of those who are endeared to them by the ties of nature. In
all these, and many other respects, this Work cannot fail of
becoming of great utility and interest to the-vast body of the'
Nobility, Clergy, and Gentry of the British Empire. The
Portraits will be selected without the least regard to political
or other differences of opinion. Eminence in Ecclesiastical
rank, intellectual abilities, learning, virtue, or religious zeal,
being the great objects proposed to be recorded.
The Memoirs will be confined to a review of the academical
course and public life of the Clergyman whose likeness is
given, together with a list of any religious or literary works
which he may have published. Facts will be stated, while
all critical and controversial observations likely to offend will
be excluded. It has been suggested by very high authority,
that it would add much- to the interest and value of the work,
if each Clergyman would furnish a short exposition of a
passage of Scripture. The Proprietors cheerfully accede to
this suggestion, and respectfully solicit the favour of such
communications. And as only about four pages on an
average can be appropriated to each Memoir and Scriptural
illustrafion, brevity will be highly desirable.
The Portraits will be engraved in the first style of the Art,
and neither trouble nor expense spared to render this great
Work worthy of the noble cause to which it is dedicated, and
one of the most splendid that has ever appeared.
A Part, containing three Portraits, with their respective
Memoir, will be published on the first day of every alternate
month, in a thick, handsothe wrapper, for the protection of
the Plates. The size of each engraving will be nine inches by
seven. s. d.

All Portraits will be given in full canonicals ' • and those

Proprietors by lending them for the purposes of this Work.
They will be carefully Preserved, and returned free of expense ;
but where no Portrait exists, the Proprietors will have one
painted expressly for the Work at their own expense.

And filling Decayed Teeth faith ral Marrnoratum.
MoNs. LE DRAY and CO., Surgeon-Dentists, respect-
fully inform the Nobility, Gentry, and Inhabitants of Liver-
pool and its vicinity, that they have opened an Establishment
permanently at No. 38, SEF,L-STREET, eight doors from
Berry-street. They continue to fill up the cavities of De-
cayed Teeth with their Mineral Marmoratum, without the
least pain, heat, or pressure ; it is placed into the cavity in
an almost liquid state, and in a few seconds gets hard, pre-
venting and curing the Tooth-ache, arresting all further pro-
gress of decay, and rendering the operation of extraction
unnecesSary. The Mineral not only converts a mere shell
into a sound and useful tooth, but, by completely stopping
up the cavity, prevents effectually that unpleasant taint of
he breath which invariably accompanies a decayed tooth.
Among the various disorders of the Teeth and Gums. there
are none more destructive in their effects, or more generally
prevalent, than Scurvy ; and it is well known that the loss
of Teeth arises more from this cause than any other. It
affects individuals of all ages and of all constitutions, and is
the primary cause of Tooth-ache and decay. To those so
affected, Mons. LE DRAY and Co. have to inform them,
that they can effectually remove this destructive complaint
by a single application, without the slightest pain.
Artificial and Natural Teeth, of surpassing. bandy, fixed
front one to a complete set, without extracting the roots or.
giving any pain, without springs, wires, or ligatures, an-
swering all the purposes of Mastication and Articulation,
remaining perfectly secure in their places, and may be taken
out and replaced by the wearer with the greatest facility,—
at the following Paris charges :
A single Artificial Tooth £o 10 0
A complete Set..
A complete Set of Natural Teeth, on fine
gold plate
An entire Set of Natural or Terro Metal-
lic Teeth, highly finished, in the first
style, with fine gold sockets, usually
charged 40 guineas
Loose Teeth fastened, arising either from age, disease, or
mercury, and deficiencies of palate effectually remedied.
Artificial Teeth out of repair, remodelled to fit the mouth,
and restored equal in beauty and durability to their original
state. Attendance from Nine till Seven, and on Sundays
from Nine till Two.

For the convenience of country patients, Monsieur
LE Dct:►r and Co. are enabled to fix a pari.ial or complete
set of Teeth at one sitting, without the least pain or incon-
venience.

THE Association, under the above titl o , was formed in
1837, principally for the working of jtveral patents, for
the application of caoutchouc, the IndjAn name for Indian
Rubber, which was known to be of gr* public utility. The
company's operations have since been iittended with the de-
sired success, as can be proved by numerous testimonials,
from competent judges, confirmatory of the excellence and
efficiency of the several articles manufactured and sold by
them, and of which the following is a list :
PATENT' ELASTIC INDIA RUBBER WEBS, viz.::
Sy.IIIGIOAL 13.,...fpn0nti.--11. ulaxtioity of tli,-.o banclag.4
renders them of infinite value in most surgical cases, especi-
ally as any required degree of lightness, porosity, or modifi-
cation of the elastic pressure, may be obtained. It is an
error to suppose that they are heating, since it is the elastic
property of the India Rubber only which is here employed,
and not its impermeable quality as a varnish.
BRACES, GARTERS, WAIST BELTS, SHOULDER STRAPS,
GLOVE TIES, &c.—These are so generally known, that it is
unnecessary to say further, than, at the company's ware-
houses, an extensive stock, embracing every variety of pat-
tern and texture, is always to be found.
ELASTIC LADIES' STAYS, LADIES' BOOTS, &C.—The ad-
mirable fitness of elastic webs for these purposes is self-evi-
dent. The ingenuity and beauty of the manufacture pecu-
liarly adapt thm for ladies' boots, which may be put on
without buttons or ties, and yet fit closely to the ankle.
They are, however, not more impervious than others, the
elastic property of the Indian Rubber being the only one
used in this fabric.
ELASTIC SADDLE GIRTHS.—The important advantages
gained by the use of these are—lst. Securit; against the
saddle slipping or turning round. 2d. Security against the
girths breaking by any violent exertion of the horse ; and
3d, By their elasticity, allowing the horse the free use of his
muscles, and avoiding that hurtful compression which, in
the common girths, does not admit of the animal making a
full inspiration when required.
PATENT ELASTIC BANDS FOR DRIVING
MACHINERY, &c.
The constant succession of scientific endeavours to facili-
tate giving regular motion to machinery, and the enormous
outlay of capital involved in these endeavours, prove the im-
mense importance of the subject in the estimation of our
manufacturers and engineers. The bands, still extensively
in use, made of leather, or gut, only partly answer the end
proposed. They are continually slipping over the pulleys
they carry, especially after having been some time in use,
and become stretched, the consequence is, an irregularity in
the motion of the machine, which materially affects the
value of the work it produces. The elastic bands com-
pletely remedy this defect. There is less friction on the axis
from the diminution of pressure, consequently more spindles
may be driven with the same power. It has been estimated,
that in factories where spinning is carried on, whether in
flax, cotton, silk, or woollen, manufacturers will be gainers of
13 per cent. by adopting the elastic bands, and the work will
be very superior in quality.
WATERPROOF CLOTH AND GARMENTS, AND

AIR-PROOF GOODS.
These articles are well known. The cloth manufactured
by the company is of superior quality, free from disagreeable
smell, and warranted to be perfectly waterproof. Every
variety of cloth garments, such as coats, cloaks, capes, ham-
mer-cloths, over-ails, and airproof goods, namely, beds, pil-
lows, cushions, and swimming belts, will be found at the
company's warehouse, either for home consumption or ex-
portation.
INDIA RUBBER OR WATERPROOF CANVAS,
for tarpauling, cart tilts, rick cloths, buckets, &c. The
pliability and elasticity of the substance used in waterproofing
canvas, prevents its cracking when exposed to the weather,
besides it is not liable to the same objection as tarred cloth
—of difficulty of separating when folded.
CAOUTCIIOUC TUBES FOR ENGINE PIPES OR

HOSE. _
They are perfectly water tight, and will not communicate
any deleterious or disagreeable quality to any liquid which
passes through them. The price of India Rubber hose is
less than that of leather. Every variety of size can be fur.:
nished.
