D OBINSON'S PATENT BARLEY, AND PATENT
it GROATS, recommended by the Faculty. Patronized
by the Queen and Royal Family.
The attention of Mothers, (especially during the period of
nursing,) Invalids, and Families is oFticularly called to the
above Patent Articles, being the pest Farinte of the Oat
and Barley ever produced, depriv&l of their fermentative
properties by a steam process.
ROBINSON'S PATENT BARLEY cannot be equalled
by any article for making pure Barley Water in a few minutes ;
all impurities being rejected, it is rendered more palatable
than Barley Water made with Pearl Barley. It is an excel-
lent adjunct with milk for the breakfast table, highly useful
for culinary purposes, light suppers, making delicious pud-
dings, thickening soups, also with the addition of lemon
juice and sweetened, forms a most grateful beverage.
ROBINSON'S PATENT GROATS, are universally
esteemed for making a delicate Gruel; and both the Groats
and Barley are a nutritious food for Children, and those
suffering under difficult digestion.
CAUTION.--The Patentees, having received a Special
Warrant of Appointment as Purveyors to Her Majesty, con-
sider it a duty they owe themselves and the Public, to put
them on their guard against imitation, and respectfully to
point out, that on each Genuine Packet are placed, in addi-
tion to the Royal Arms, the words " By Royal Letters
Patent," and the Signature of " MArrs. ROBINSON."

A NEW DISCOVERY IN ARTIFICIAL TEETH,'
FIXED WITHOUT WIRES, SPRINGS, OR LIGATURES.
SCURVY IN THE GUMS EFFECTUALLY REMOVED.
LOOSE TEETH FASTENED.
And Filling Decayed Teeth with Mineral Succedaneum.
Mons. JAMES M. and S. MALLAN, Surgeon Dentists,
respectfully inform the Nobility, Gentry, and Inhabitants of
Liverpool and its vicinity, that th have opened an Esta-
blishment, permanently, at No. 29 • OLD-STREET, opposite
i n
the Concert Room, where Mons. ellen may be consulted
DAILY throughout the year. They continue to fill up the
cavities of Decayed Teeth with their Mineral Succedaneum,
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, ;preventing and curing the Tooth-ache, arresting all
further progress 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 the 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 10-s
of Teeth arises more from this cause than any other. It
affects individuals of all ages and of all constitutions and it
is the primary cause of Tooth-ache and decay. ,
To those so
affected, Mons. JAMES M. and S. MALLAN haveT
to inform
them, that they can effectually remove this destructive com-
plaint by a single application, without the slightest pain.
Mons. MALLAN begs to introduce to the notice of. his
Patients and the Public, an entire new description of IN-
CORRODIBLE ARTIFICIAL TEETH, and with con-
fidence guarantee them to a_ nswer every purpose of Mastica•
tion and Articulation, and defy detection from "the closest
observer. They never change colour or break, as those now
used, are fixed without wires or ligatures, and have no un-
pleasant odour or unnatural gloss. This method does not
require the extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and
will give support and preserve Teeth that are loose.
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 Six.
*** For the convenience of country patients, Messrs.
JAMES M. & S. MALLAN are enabled to fix a partial or
complete set of Teethat one sitting, without the least pain or
inconvenience.
Invalids attended at their Residences, by giving two days'
notice. •
IN .B.—The Charges are fixed and moderate.

We are assured that there is no truth in the paragraph
going the round of the newspaper press, that the Archimedes,
" during her recent voyage off the cost of Holland, struck on
a shoal of rocks." The statement is pure fiction.
MR. JOSEPH STURGE AGAIN.—On Tuesday last the
overseers distrained upon Mr. Joseph Sturge for £22 12s.
The officers seized 60 bushels of malt, upon which Mr.
Sturge replevied, and the case consequently will not be de-
cided until the next spring assizes, if then.—Birmingham
Advertiser.

BRITISH ASSOCIATION, GLASGOW.—The general com-
mittee assembled on Wednesday, at one o'clock, in the
Faculty Hall, Glasgow College, and the chair was taken by
the Marquis of Breadalbane, president elect. The attend-
ance was less numerous than is usual on these occasions, and
many who have hitherto taken an active part in the govern-
ment of the society were absent. The council table was
very partially filled. In addition to the officers of the society,
there were only the Marquis of Northampton, Sir J. Robison,
Professors Whewell, Stevelly, and Forbes, Captain Sabine,
and one or two others. The report of the council was read
by Mr. Yates. The subsequent proceedings of the associa-
tion seem not to possess much general interest.

ELOPEMENT.—The usual quietness enjoyed by the parish
of Lindfield has been disturbed for the last few days by the
unusual circumstance of an elopement. The fair fugitive is
a young lady named Ellcoat, whose parents reside in Lon-
don, and who had been placed for her health as a parlour-
boarder with Miss Baker, the head of a ladies' establishment.
Early in the morning of Wednesday week, it was discovered
that Miss Ellcoat had quitted the house, in company with a
female servant in Miss Baker's service. They proceeded in
a fly, which was awaiting them, to the Blue Anchor, where it
is supposed they met the gentleman, the captain of a trading
vessel, and proceeded in the East Grimstead-coach. No
tidings have since been heard of them. The intelligence was
immediately communicated to the lady's parents, whose dis-
tress may be imagined. What makes the case the more dis-
tressing is the fact that the young lady was deformed, and
doubtless the chief object of the seducer is the fortune (about
£1,500) to which she will be entitled on becoming of age, in
November next. The servant who accompanied her took
away several articles of dress belonging to Miss Baker, and
also the gold ring of a young lady of the establishment. It
is but justice to add, that not the least blame attaches to the
lady with whom the imprudent runaway was placed.—Brigh-
ton Herald.
EXTRAORDINARY ELOPEMENT.—A few days ago, the
daughter of a respectable farmer in East-Lothian was in-
duced by one of her father's shearers, a disreputable charac-
ter, who has been already twice convicted of theft, to elope
with him. Before leaving the house, he broke open a strong
chest belonging to her father, in which was contained bank
receipts to the amount of £234, and cash to the amount of
£l2. Information having been given to the East-Lothian
police, Mr. List, the active superintendent in that county,
and brother to the respected superintendent in Mid-Lothian,
made immediate inquiry, and in the course of a few hours
succeeded in discovering the fellow and his unhappy dupe in
a low lodging-house in the Nungate, Haddington, where they
had just arrived. The money was recovered, with the ex-
ception of about twenty shillings, with which the male pri-
soner had purchased a second-hand suit of clothes ; and next
day the bank receipts were found in a field near the scene of
the elopement. Both parties have been committed for trial.
—Scottish Standard.
DISASTER ON DISASTER.-011 Wednesday morning, the
9th instant, the Countess of Lonsdale, steam-ship, left Ham-
burgh for London, with passengers and the mail ; and when
about 120 miles from the port whence she sailed, she fell in
with the Caledonia, another large steam-ship, which had
broken the main shaft of her engine, and was unable to pro-
ceed on her voyage from London to Hamburg. The Coun-
tess immediately took the Caledonia in tow, with the inten-
tion of proceeding with her to Hamburg, but had not gone
far before some accident happened to her own machinery,
and she was unable to proceed. The Severn steamer, bound
from Hamburg to Hull, subsequently fell in with the Coun-
tess of Lonsdale and the Caledonia, and took out their pas-
sengers and the mail-bags. The Countess and the Caledonia
put into Cuxhaven, and afterwards proceeded to Hamburg,
where they now remain. The Neptune, steam-ship, left
Hamburg on Saturday, and on the following morning, at
nine, she fell in with the Severn, in a state of distress, hav-
ing met with damage during the gale. The Neptune went to
the assistance of the Severn, and, after taking out her pas-
sengers and those of the Countess of Lonsdaleand the Cale-
donia, proceeded to London, where she arrived on Sunday
morning week, after a very boisterous passage.
