MONS. LE DRAY & CO., Surgeon-Dentists, respectfully
inform the nobility, gentry, and inhabitants of Liverpool and
its vicinity, that they have opened an Epahlishment
perma-
nently at No. 70: StEL-ST.REET, eight doors from Berry-
street. They continue to fill up the cavities of decayed teeth
with the Mineral Martnoratum, 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 mi-
neral nut 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 invaria-
bly accompanies a decayed tooth.
Among the various disorders of the teeth and gums, there
is none more destructive in their effects, or wore generally
prevalent than scurry, 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 ap-
plication without the slightest pain.
Artificial and natural teeth, of surpassing. beauty,fixed from
-one to a complete set, without extracting the roots orgiving
any pain, without springs, wires, or ligatures, answering all
the purposes of mastication and articulation, remaining per-
fectly secure in their places, and may be taken out and repla-

It is a melancholy fact, that thousands fall sictims to the

the constitution, and cause ulcerations, with blotches on the

deafness, obstinate gleets, and nodes on the shin hones, till
at length a general debility and decay of the constitution
ensues, and a melancholy death puts a period to their dread-
ful sufferings.
PERRY'S PURIFYING SPECIFIC PILLS, price 2e.
9,1. and lime. per box, a certain, safe, 4nd the most speedy re-
medy ever discovered for the permanent and effectual cure of
venereal diseases, genorrhcea, gleets, strictures, semina-
weakness, iu the loins, affections of the kidneys, gravel, lum-
bago, local debility, irritation of the bladder or urethra, and
other diseases of the
urinary-passages. frequently performing
a perfect cure in time short space of three days, by one small
pill for a dose, with ease, secrecy. and safety. The certainty
with which they are continually wiministered can be attested
by many thousands. The Specific Pills root out every parti-
cle.of insidious noisan, purifying in their progress the whole
mass of fluids. They not only remove the disease, but reno-
vate by their action the different functions of the body, ex-
, prlling the grosser humours. and in a manner so mild and
imperceptible as to convince the most sceptical of their asto-
nishing and unequalled powers. They neither contain mer-
cury our any other mineral, and may be taken without the
slightest suspicion of discovery. They require no restraint of
diet, loss of time, or hindrance of business, but effect. a cons
pieta cure, without the least exposure to the patient. At any
period when the slightest suspicion may exist, it will be well
to have recourse to the Specific Pills, for when taken before
the disease has made its appearance it acts as a certain pre-
ventative, by moving the complaint effectually and secretly.
Messrs. PERRY, Surgeons, continue to direct their
stu-
dies to those dreadful debilities arising from the too free and
indiscriminate indulgence of the passions, which not only
occasion a numerous train of nervous affections, and entail
on its votaries all the enervating imbecilities of old age, but
weaken and destroy all the bodily senses, occasioning loss of
imagination, judgment, and memory, indifference and aver-
sion for all pleasures. In that distressing state of debility or
deficiency, whether the consequence of baneful habits, exces-
sive drinking, or any other cause, by which the powers of
the constitution become enfeebled, they offer a firm, sale, and
speedy restorati n to sound and vigorous health.
PERRY'S VEGETABLE PILLS are well known for
the certain and effectual remedy of secondary symptoms,
venereal eruptions, pains in the bones, ulcerated sore throat,
diseased nose, chronic rheumatism, scrofula, seortoitic end
glandular affections, local and general debility, nocturnal
pains in the head and limbs, depression of spirits, and all
diseases arising from an impure state of the blood.

A. COMPLETE AND PRACtICAL SYSTEM OF
SHORT-HAND. By T. C. FOSTER, Professional
Short-Hand Writer, and 'Reporter for the LtvEnPoor.
STANDARD.
London: WHITTAKER and Co. Liverpool: STANDARD
Office, and Manebus. Matich6ster: SOWLER, and all
Booksellers.
OPINIONS OF THE PRES '.
"This system of Short-hand will be fou7n one of the most
complete that has ever been issued fryk e press—indeed,
we may say the most complete. Utility and simplicity are
the main objects which the author has kept in view. A per-
fect mastery of the instructions which Mr. Foster has given,
will enable any one to take down tr•-imtint, the words of the
most rapid speaker. Nor is this the only advantage which
wiil accrue from an acquaintance with this system, the faci-
lity with whicji the notes may be afterwards read is a consi-
deration of vary great importance. The alphabetical cha-
racters have the recommendation of extreme simplicity.
The signs for combination of letters, and the arintraries, or
marks ('or ,colds, will be found highly conducive to expedi-
tion in writing. In this department the autho4 has been
eminently . successful I;
. or Gentlemen who may
wish to waster the useful art of stenography, we can cordi-
ally recommend this work, by which a student of ordinary
ability, especially if a quick writer, may be enabled in a very
short time to takedown literal reports of sermons and speeches.
We may add, that the professional short-hand writer may
also derive much instruction from this compendium.—Liver-
pool Standard.
"This is an exceedingly clever, instructive, and well writ-
ten production. Generally speaking, works on stenography
are not sufficiently eatertaining and attractive to obtain nu-
merous readers; but we will du Mr. Foster the justice to say,
that he has thrown much that is highly-interesti 'g in his
" plain instructions," and has very happily blended the enter-
taming with the useful. Our author's principal object ap-
pears to be to instruct the uninitiated; but we think his work
will prove valuable in many respects even to those whose
profession it is to practise the art. Of course his system must,
in_a great measure, partake of those previously in existence,
but as regards the distinctness and decision of his vowel cha-
racters, it is superior to any we have seen. Hie extimples
and illustrations are also exceedingly good, and the various
lessons are given with a phinness and perspicuity which
must greatly facilitate the !valuer's progress. In short, to
all who are anxious to obtain a speedy and accurate know-
ledge of the art of stenography, we earnestly recommend the.
work."—Maneliester Cow icr.

" We are of opinion that the last essay on stenography
must almost of necessity be the best, and that the person most
qualified to treat of it is a practical reporter. Mr. Foster's
enthusiastic admiration of the art, has, we think, led him a
little too far; but it by no means detracts ,front the value of
information derived front his own personal observation and
experience as a reporter, which is now offered to the public
in a cheap sad accessible form."—Liverpool Mercury.
" We can with confidence pronounce Mr. Foster's system
a good one. Constant practice is absolutely necessary for
any one who wishes to be a first-rate short-hand writer, either
on this or on any other system; but we believe, that a
thoroughly practised writer of short-hand would find it easier
to follow a rapid speaker with this than with any other system.
It also possesses the very great advantage of being easily
readable when written."-Liverpool Times.
"From a hasty glance through the pages, we pronounce it
excellent."—Lancashire Herald.
".Mr. Foster we know has had much practical experience
in the art, and it is practical experience alone that can
enable an individual to form a correct :udgment of any par-
ticular system. Mr. Foster has, it appears, tried three seve-
ral systems, and has fixed upon that which he deems the best.
On this he has made such improvements as, in the course
of Ilk practice, seemed best' calculated to secure facility.
With his judgment matured by constant consideration of
the subject, he tells us that the system which he has now
presented to the public possesses ;uany advantages over
those most in use, with which he is acquainted.—Linerpoul

" We think its alphabetical characters are extremely sim-
ple, and that the signs for ploralities of letters, and the ar-
raries, which are inure peculiarly the autbut's own improve-
ments, are highly conducive to expedition, without induring
any correspooding difficulty in deciphering. «•'hire Mr. Fos-
ter's at bitra ries and double and triple consonants are more
numerous than those or 0; her systems that we have niet with,
they seem all well adapted for practice, and if so, they cannot
but lie regarded as a material aid to the short-haud writer."
Liverpool Courier.
"Mr. Foster, in this little work, has given to the world the
result of his own practical experience as a short-hand writer.
In the two great requisites of short-hand writing—expedition
and an easy facility in deciphering the characters when writ-
ten—the present system is superior we conceive, to most of
the popular works on the same subject. Persons wishing to
give the requisite application to the study of short-hand, will
find in Mr. Foster's manual everything they require. The
practicability of the system is best tested by Mr. Foster's re-
putation as au accomplished stenographer.— Liverpool

"It is our opinion that the reporter is a far more efficient
tutor in the art of stenography than they who, however well
acquainted with it theoretically, have but little practice; be-
cause in the former case you are most likely to be presented
with a system perfected to the point or practical utility. while
in the Jailer it is ten to one but you are taught a system which
is found to fail upon trial, and which may require years rf
alteration, amendment, it tid practice to render it serviceab,e.
We must admit that Mr. Foster's system appears to us a very
excellent cue; that its capabiltes are equal to all demands
upon it is evident from his own practice; and that it is laid
down clearly and judiciously, will be apparent to any one
who peruses the honk."—rdverpoot Journal.
"The little knowledge we possess of this very useful art
enables ns to state that Mr. Foster's systein appears to us a
very practical and easy one, and therefore a very good one.
The work is cheap and very intelligible, ' and we 'have no
hesitation in recommending it to those who are desirous of
becoming proficients in the art, and to all whO desire to have
y k nowledge it."—Metropolittrz anise native Journal and
