ATONSIEUR LE
DRAY AND CO., Surgeon Dentists,
IVA. respectfully inform the inhabitants of Liverpool and its
vicinity, that they have opened an Establishment permanently
at No. 35, S i!:EL-STREET, eight doors from Berry-street,
Liverpool.
Loss of Teeth supplied, from one to a complete Set, and
fixed without wires or ligatures. The Toothach instantaneously
cured, and Decayed Teeth filled with Mineral Marmoratum, and
made completely sound; without pain, heat, or pressure.
Monsieur La DRAY AND Co., Surgeon-Dentists, beg leave to
acquaint the inhabitants of Liverpool and its vicinity, that they
supply Artificial, Mineral, or Natural Teeth, and continue to
restore Decayed Teeth with their celebrated Mineral Marmora-
tuna, which is placed in the cavities without pain, heat, or
pressure, and instantly hardens into enamel, arresting all fur-
ther prograss of decay, converting a stump into a sound Tooth,
and lasting many years. In cases of Toothach, they are ena-
bled to afford instantaneous relief by a single application of
their Concentrated Essence;, and as there is no complaint
more general or more distressing in its nature than Toothach,
the value of this remedy cannot be sufficiently estimated, when
due consideration is given to the number of Teeth that ate daily
extracted, owing to the very prevalent notion that there is no
other remedy fur this painful affection.
Mons. La DRAY AND Co. continue to supply Artificial and
Natural Teeth, of surpassing beauty, which are fixed from one
to a complete Set, without extracting the roots, or giving any
pain; without wires or ligatures, to match in colour the adjoin-
ing ones, answering all the purposes of mastication and articu-
lation, remaining perfectly secure in their places, and may be
taken nut and replaced by the wearer with the greatest facility.

en Venereal Disease, Gonorrhma, Gleets, .ind Stricture, 'in-

from 'early abuses, so that all persons can obtain an immediate
Cure, with ease, secrecy, and safety.
It is a melancholy fact, that thousands fall victims to the Ve-
nereal Disease, owing to the unskilfulness of illiterate men,
who, by the use of that deadly poison, Mercury, ruin the con-
stitution, and cause ulcerations, with blotches on the head, face,
and body, dimness in the sight, noise in the ears, deafness,
obstinate g!eots, and nodes on the shin bones, till at length a'
general debility and decay of the constitution ensues, and a
melancholy death puts a period to their dreadful sufferings.
PERRY'S PURIFY ING SPECIFIC PILLS, price 2s. 9d.
and lls. per box, a certain, safe, and the most speedy remedy
ever discovered for the permanent and effectual cure of venereal
diseases,—gonorrhoea, gleets, strictures, seminal weakness,
in the loins, affections of the kidneys, gravel, lumbago, local
debility, irritation of the bladder or urethra, and other diseases
of the urinary passages. frequently performing a perfect cure
in the short space of three days, by one small pill for a dose,
with ease, secrecy, and safety. The certainty with which they
are continually administered can be attested by many thousands.
Tne Specific Pills root out every particle of insidious noison,
purifying in their progress the whole mass of fluids. They not
only remove the disease, but renovate by their action the differ-
ent functions of the body, expelling the grosser humours, and
in a manner so mild and imperceptible as to convince the mos
sceptical of their astonishing and unequalled powers. They
neither contain mercury nor 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 complete 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
preventative, by moving the complaint effectually and secretly.
Messrs. PERRY, Surgeons, continue to direct their studies
to those dreadful debilities arising from the too free and indis-
criminate indulgence of the passions, which not only occasion
a nemerans 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 aversion for all plea-
sures. In that distressing state of debility or deficiency, whether
the consequence of baneful habits, excessive drinking, or any
other cause. by which the powers of the constitution. become
tenfeebled, they offer a firm, safe, and speedy restoration to sound
and vigorous health.

PEIiTY'S VEQETABLE PILLS Are well known for the
certain and effectual remedy of secondary symptoms. venereal
eruptions, pains in the hones, ulcerated sore throat, diseased
nose, chronic rheumatism, scrofula, scorbutic and Rlaticlular
affections, local and general debility, nocturnal pains in the
head and limbs, depression of spiritti, and, all diseases arising
from an impure state of the blood.
These Pills are worthy a place in the calilinets of masters and
captains of ships, the more so, as they Will keep good in all
climates any length of time.

LIVERPOOL AND" NEW eperabit.
YORK" STEAM-PACKET
COMPANY.
Capital £200,000, in 10,000. Shares of £29. each.

a
rJIHI object of this Company is to establish a Stem Cora-
mimication between the Ports of Liverpool and New York.
Its projectors have long entertained the most sanguine opi-
nions as to the success likely to attend such an enterprize, when
liberally backed by public patronage; and, this, the present
prospectus, it is confidently hoped, will be the means of induc-
ing, fur it is a truism, that without its fostering aid all such as-
sociations must signally fail in the attainment of their object.
Twenty years ago the idea was derided of successfully effect-
ing an intercourse by Steam between this country and Ireland.
Nevertheless, we are now in a position of exposing the fallacy
of so contracted a view, as .science, aided by wealth. perse-
verance, and enterprise have prevailed, and the existing esta-
blishments are in the most prosperous condition.
The assertion, then, may fairly be hazarded, that Steam Na-
vigation, in the really efficient form it has assumed in the prei,
sent day, is capable in an eminent degree of developing the
vast resources of tkese fertile, densely populated, and commer-
cially important districts of North America, (to which the oper-
ations of this Company will be directed,) by affording that
superior facility of intercourse between them and Great Britain,
for which Steam in other parts of the world has become so justly
celebrated, and which, a like to the Merchant and the Emigrant,
must be.a matter of the-most paramount interest.
The, protectors are justifiable in stating, (inasmuch as it is
the expressed opinion of scientific anti experienced men,) that,
with suitably constructed and powerful vessels, the run out to
New York may, in ordinary weather, be accomplished in about
Sixteen days. So quick a run by other means, it is believed,
would be without a parallel.
An ample supply of Fuel may be always calculated upon, as
the great improvement lately introduced in the engineer and
boiler department (the invention of the scientific Mr. Hall) has
caused a most extraordinary decrease in the consumption of that
very important article.
In order to disseminate as widely as possible the advantages
likely to accrue from such an association as this, well, respect-
ably, and spiritedly conducted,—a prominent feature in its for-
mation has been, that of dividing the shares into the moderate
amount of Twenty Pounds each ; thus, not precluding the
tradesman or small capitalist from investing in an establishment
'Which cannot but augment the commercial importance of this
enterprising community. .
' The Company will be considered as constituted, as soon as
bona fide applications to the extent of 5000 shares shall have
been made.

Five Shillings per Share will be required upon enrollment;
'and, in one week after Directors have been chosen, it will he
necessary fur Proprietors to pay £2 per Share into the Albion
Bank, to the credit of the Company. The remainder of the
calls to be Made as the direction may deem expedient, in sums
not exceeding £2 per Share, and at periods of not less than six
weeks between each call. •

The management of the Company shall be intrusted to Six
Directors, to he chosen by file Proprietors. Three of the Di-
rectors to retire annually. but to be eligible for re-elm ion.
The holding of Fifty Shares to constitute the eligibility of a
Director, and Auditors shall nut be deemed competent to act as
Directors.

The usual means to secure Proprietors by the restriction of
liability will he adopted.
A Provisional Committee will be formed immediately, to
whom ail applications for Shares must be addressed, cats of

Street.
