PARISIAN NOVELTIES.

- -
Ht.. COOPER, No. 99, Bishopsgate-street Within,
• respectfully announces to the Nobility and Gentry, he has
just introduced an elegrint Parisian Toilette, which reflects the
whole figure at one glance, and will be found the most complete
Dressing Glass ever yet introduced; also a rich and curious assort-
ment of superior and beautiful French Moulds for Glass Frames,
Prints, Paintings, and Bordering for Rooms ; these Pumas are
samples of real taste, and well deserving of inspection.
H. L. Comma with confidence alarms' that he can manufacture
every article of superior Furniture to orsler, at such a scale of re-
duced charge, as will ensure the approbation of those who honour
his Establishment by inspection. No workmen are employed but
of the first rate—nor any materials used but what are well-sea-
soned, and of the first quality. These are tests which should pre-
vent a discerning Public from being misled by Houses who exhibit
goods apparently cheap, but without that Warranty so absolutely
necessary in Furniture.
Families desirous of having their own Silks or Furniture made
up, will find designs for Upholstery, adapted to the most simple or
the richest style.
P.S. Best Brussels Carpets at 4s. ed. per yard. Super Kidder-
minster Ditto at 3s. 6d. per yard.

FOR PRESERVING THE TEETH AND GUMS.
BUTLER'S VEGETABLE TOOTH-POWDER
has so long been in general use that it is almost unnecessary
to offer any further recommendation of it. Composed of Vegetables
without the admixture of any mineral or pernicious ingredient
whatever, it is free from the usual objection against the use of
other Dentrifices. Its detersive power is just sui§cient to annihi-
late those destructive particles which adhere to the Gums and the
Interstices of the Teeth; healing injuries in the former, and pro-
moting a new Enamel (where it has been injured or corroded) on
the Lauer. It likewise imparts a firmness and healthy redness to
the Gums; and if regularly used will preserve the Teeth in a
soand state to old age.

TEAKE'S GENUINE PILLS, justly famous for
curing, in all its stages, the VENEREAL DISEASE
One small Pill is a dose, and the taking of one Box, in a recent
ease, will soon convince the patient of the certainty of his speedy
recovery. Nothing can be better contrived, more safe, or more
convenient than this Remedy, for such as are obliged to go journies
or to sea, as it needs no confinement nor restraint of Diet; and
sixty years experience (in an extensive practice) has proved that it
will effect a Cure when repeated Salivation and all other methods
avail nothing. Vor the Scurvy and other Chronical Disorders,
this Medicine has not its parallel. Upwards of 40,000 persons
of both sexes have been radically cured of the above cruel disor-
ders, within the last eight years. Prepared and sold by the sole
proprietors, T. TAYLOR and SON, blemb.ers of the Royal Col-
II lege of Surgeons, at their House, No. 9, New Bridge-street, in
Boxes of only Sts. 9d. each, duty included.—N.B. Two back
doors, and Lights in the Passages at night.—They are also sold,
by their appointment, with copious directions, at the Toy-shop,
103. Ox ford-street ; Mr. Dishorough's, No. 7, Fish-street-bill,
nearly opposite the Monument ; and by one Person in every coo-
si icr.ibic Town in Great Britain and Ireland. Advice gratis to
rents eking the above, or other of the Proprietor's blackings.

"Oh ! levers of Verona, fair and young, are you in-
deed returned ?" I cannot at the present moment find
a more apt quotation, being from one of our best Poets,
and the only subject to which, during our short stay in
this fair land, I can turn my thoughts ; do not call me
egotistical for fixing on it, 'twas the best I could think of
to commence this epistle! We arrived here last night,
on our road from Milan to 'Venice, and of course could
not pass through without making a short stay here
to visit the curiosities of the neighbourhood, amplii•
theatre, palaces, &c. and to pay our devoirs at the tomb
or Juliet. We left Milan on Thursday morning last,
after staying long enough to see all that was worthy at-
tention
in the city. We visited Lake Comn, but were
stopt in our progress by a tremendous thun -ler storm, and
obliged to remain the night at an inn by the side of the
Lake : the storm was tremendous, but very grand
Never talk again or thunder in England—stay till you
have heard it crashing among the Alps, over Italian hills.
We jsave in our progie.s been visited by several thunder
storms, and the lightning is very frequent in its v isita•
Lions, arid sometimes very vivid. We were delighted
with Milan ; the city is beautiful ; t'ie cathedral finer
than any I hal ever seen ; their grani theatre magnifi-
cent. The journey from Milan hi:her has been very plea-
sant ; we do not travel more than 40 or 50 miles a day,
staying two or three hoprs about mid-day, to avoid some
part of the hear. We, on our road, stayed a night at
the grand Parmesan cheese village, and of course visited
the warehouses and mAnufactories. We stayed yester-
day at Mantua a few hours to visit the churches and
palaces there ; the paintings, all by Julio Romanio; the
Pan of their Dairy—Tasso's Tomb, of course, we in-1
lquired for, and found nothing very particular; on the
contrary, very shabby, but very interesting to us. I
have as yet seen little of Verona, but the approach to it
is beautiful ; it looks a little Paradise among the hills,
It has been strongly fortified.
Since writing
.the above, we have been running all
over Verona, visiting the cathedral, different churches,
gardens, palaces, the tomb of King Pepin (the son of
Charlemagne), and the tomb of Juliet; it has been re-
moved from the garden, and stands inside a gateway—
'cis almost a stone coin, very thick, and the exact
colour of the heart I have; we begged hard for a little
bit of the tomb, but in vain, the old woman said it was
worth her life to allow it ; when it stood in the garden,
so many persons had broken pieces off, that orders were
given for its removal, and not on any pretence to be
again touched.

Only think how fortunate I am to have •the piece of
Juliet's tomb ; it would have been impossible now to
get it. I have purchased some white kid gloves here
to play Juliet—and, by the by,Verona is a capital place
for gloves, not particularly cheap, but most excellent ;
and I have a most beautiful costume in g, my mind's
eye" for Juliet; I have written the particulars down
from a picture in the gallery of the Arts and Sciences
of Milan. I could wish to hear oftener from you, never
having received a letter since I quitted Paris s I suppose
I shall get a letter at Venice, where we hope to be the
day after to-morrow, staying a few hours at Padua
and at Vicenza, by the way. Mr. say-. our next
had better be directed to Turin. We have not yet teen
attacked, nor seen any signs of robbers. Our coachman
made a very short journey the day before yesterday,
as he said the road was much risfested, and it would
not do to travel in the evening after the peasantry
had retired to their cottages. They tell us we have
passed all the dangerous and distressed parts of the
country; they say the road to and beyond Rome is all
perfectly safe. You have no idea of the cheapmess of
wine and fruit in this part of the world ; wine fifteen
pence a bottle—that's quite a high price for the com-
mon wine; but the best bottle we have tasted we bougbt
on the road for five pence. The living at hotels is,
nevertheless, expensive in comparison. Grapes two-
pence a pound, and peaches five pence a pound, and the
Italian pounds are 24 ounces; as for melons, the bar-
rows and carts full would astonish you.

We are now off to the grand amphitheatre here—an old Roman
concern, the present theatre is inside It—to see the Barber of Seville.
The performance commences at four in the afternoon, by daylight,
in the open air.
