FIRES AT NEWFOUNDLAND.
It is submitted that amongst the various calls on a h
Public, an appeal in behalf of the distressed sufferers by
cent conflagrations at St. John's, Newfoundland, will bt
peculiarly deserving consideration anti support. The mai
of these calamities, the remote and insulated situation of
habitants, the severity of the climate, and' total want t
resources, are all powerful motives with such as are chi
di.posed. In the reverses experienced by every branch of
merce after the Pt:ace, the Trade of Newfoundland was
oily depressed that many respectable Establishments were
'up, most of the small traders shined, and the lower
reduced to extreme wretchedness.

In February 11116, a destructive fire consumed about 140
houses, which materially augmented the general distress, and
brought numerous families to abject poverty.
In these. reduced circumstances that unfortunate Settlement
had to sustain the overwhehning effects of two dreadful confla-
grations, on the 7th and 21st November last, which totally de-
stroyed SOO houses, storehouses, &c. including property to the
estimated value of £400,000 or £500,000, leaving hundreds
of respectable inhabitants in a state of utter destitution.
Such a series 01 calamities may well be supposed to produce
an accumulation of misery which no language can adequately
describe, and which needs not the aid of eloquence to enforce.
Many of those who are the objects of this application, had con-
tributed to the support of others, till borne down by succeeding
misfortunes, they, in their turn, require assistance ; bat it is
obvious, amidst losses so general, and reverses so widely spread,
the means of relief on the spot are lamastably disproportionate.
To the mother country, therefore, those unfortunate persona look
for acsistarxe, and it is hoped this appeal will not be made in vain

REMARKS OF IMPORTANCE TO Tim mimic
TO Lim Lorton or TIM ire,.
SIR—It is well known that lives have been fi
quently lost by irjudicious Surgical, Artifiel and Mccl
nical Oper.tions on the Teeth. Many people have been dl‘figui
in their countenances; the eyes, nose, and hearing, have be
injered ; the maxillary nerves, and bones have been contsaict4
by which means their lives have been rendered miserable.

cannot b. too cautious in whose hands they trust that el
d'oeuvre, the bead, the residence of almost all the senses.
Teeth it contains are not only useful to the preservation
our health, but are the greatest ornament of the face ; th
diseases, and those of the bead in general, which are oc,
sinned by them, are enumerated by the first Surgeons, .kna
mists, Osteologists, and Dentists, to the astooklang number
upwards of one hundred, from the fire and second dental

body is generally confided to Professional Men of ability; w
not those of the head also? That head with its physiognm
(which can express its gratitude to its Maker fur all its gratis
gifts) is entrusted often to the heads of persons win" only kn.
bow to tear it to pieces ; and if they do not totally destroy, tt
often rr.aterially injure its beauty ; we can exist with the loss

yet we maydo tolerably well; but with the bead all is ext
guished. People in general, when they are under the neoess

one. Particular attention should be paidto the cleanliness of
apparatus, fur if stained with vitiated blood, or other humor
