GOOD NEWS FOR THE MILLION.
" OPIFER PER ORBEM DICOR."
11111ALEY, the greatest of moral philosophers, truly enume-
rates Children as among the principal sources of human

happiness. At no period is human life so'precarious as in
the early stages of Infancy; for it is ,1t fact, no less lament-
able than true, that, at the least, one4ialf of the Children
born in Great Britain perish in a stale-of Infancy. Of these,
some die for want of Medicine, butrby far the greater portion
from the abuse of it. Pernicious stupefactives, whose basis
is laudanum or other opiates, are constantly administered to
tender Infants, especially among the poorer classes. These
dangerous compounds allay pain for a time, by stupifying the
senses, but ultimately leave the agonized little sufferer in a

worse 'state than before. The igno-rant and deluded, though

anxious, well-meaning, and affectionate Mother, thus pro-
cures herself a little more ease from nursing, but her darling
child either shortly perishes, or, if it survive, it is only to pass
its mortal pilgrimage (from its constitution having been than
enervated and undermined) in a state of lethargic insensibi-
lity. Deeply impressed with the magnitude of these serious
evils, and animated with a truly philanthropic zeal to arre*t
their progress, it was that the late Mr, Atkinson (a man of
original talent, and of superior intellectual attainments gene-
rally, as well as a skilful chemist and apothecary) directed
his best energies to the formation of a compound suited to
the various complaints of Infants. His laudable efforts were
at length crowned with the success they so well merited, in
the production of that most invaluable Preparation,
ATKINSON'S INFANT'S PRESERVATIVE !
which has now stood the test of analysis, the test of trial,
and, above all, the fiery ordeal of public opinion, for nearly.
half a century, and of which Seventy Thousand Bottles are
annually sold in Great Britain. In short, whether this Me-
dicine be destined to enter the palace or the humblest cottage,
the Proprietor feels an honest conviction of its power to as-
suage maternal pain for Infant suffering, to convert that pain
into gladness, that suffering into balmy repose.
As a preventive against, and a cure for, those complaints •
to which Infants are liable, as Affections of the Bowels, dif-
ficult Teething, Convulsions, Rickets, &c., it is a pleasant,
innocent, •and efficacious Carminative, and an admirable as-
sistant to Nature during the progress of the Hooping Cough,
the Measles, and the Cow Pox, or Vaccine Inoculation ; and,
it may be added, that this MedicineC is so perfectly innocent,
that it may be given with the greatest safety to an Infant
immediately after birth.
Prepared only by ROBERT BARKER (Nephew and Suc-
cessor to, and formerly Partner with Mr. Atkinson), Che-
mist and Druggist, 1, Market-place, and 8, Oldham-street,
Manchester, in moulded bottles, at ls. 2s. 9d., and
4s. 6d. each. Sold, retail, by most respectable Medicine
Venders in town and country.
N.B.—Please to be particular in asking for Atkinson's
Infant's Preservative, and observe the name of " ROBERT
BARKER, 1, Market-place, Manchester," upon the Go-
vernment Stamp, affixed over the cork of each bottle of the
genuine Medicine.

Moss. 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. 70, SEEL-STREETreight doors from
Berry-street. They continue to fill 441 the cavities of De-
cayed Teeth with their Mineral Ma ioratum, without the
least pain, heat, or pressure ; it is placed into the cavity its
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 bra-,+h which invariably accompanies a decayed tooth. •

A the various disorders of the Teeth and Gums, there
are none mere destructive in their effects, or more generally
prevalent, than Scurvy ; and it is well known that the loss
of Teeth arises more from this muse 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 beauty, fixed
from 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 £0 10 0
A complete Set 5 5 0
A complete Set of Natural Teeth, on fine r old

An entire Set of Natural or Terrb Metal-
lic Teeth, highly finished, in the first

It is a startling coincidence, that almost all the over

Joint Stock Banks, have occurred, not where the system has

from this fact ; we merely state it, leaving the Bank of En
