DAILY ATTENDANCE THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.
MONS..MALLAN, SURGEON DENTIST, of the firm
Of Messrs. JAMES M. and S. MALLAN, No. 10, Lud-
gate-hill, London.
A NEW DISCOVERY IN ARTIFICIAL TEEM,

FIXED WITHOUT WIRES, SPRINGS, OR LIGATURE .
SCURVY IN THE GUMS EFFECTUALLY REM ED
LOOSE TEETH FASTENED.

And Filling Decal/ed Teeth with MineralS cedanewn.
Mons. JAMES M. and S. MALLAN, Sur on Dentists,
respectfully inform the Nobility, Gentry, au Inhabitants of
Liverpool and its vicinity, that they have pened an Esta-
blishment, permanently, at No. 23, BOL STREET, opposite
the Concert Room, where Mons. Malls 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 loss
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 have 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 answer 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. The
Charges are fixed and moderate.
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.

young and lovely Sovereign, in permitting me to enjoy, un-
disturbed, the blessings of pure religion, without gratitude ;
therefore it is that I refuse my sanction, my support, to assist

MANCHESTER AND SALFORD PROTESTANT
AND REFORMATION ASSOCIATION.

AT a MEETING of the Committee of the MANCHES-
TER and SALFORD PROTESTANT and REFOR-
MATION ASSOCIATION, held on, the 4th day of Sep-
tember, 184
It ten
1. That this committee has heard with the greatest surprise

priest against the Rev. Hugh Stowell, the able, Eton(
fearless advocate of Protestant interests, find the presi

,st, and
lent of

2. That the occasion which gave rise 'to the action, the evi-
dence adduced on behalf of the plaintiff, the exultation with
which the verdict has been received by the Romanists, and the

taken collective

present attack is the commencement of the
devised by the Roman Catholic Institute, for the
prevention of the free public discussion of the absurdities,
evils, and dangers of Popery ; and that the proceedings,
therefore, at once assume a form, the importance of which
to the welfare of Protestantism, and of true religion in this
empire, it is difficult to estimate.

3. That this committee is most anxious that public atten-
tion should be directed to the following circumstances con-
nected with the case ; that no attempt was made to obtain
any explanation from Mr. Stowell, of the circumstances un-
der which the alleged libel had received his sanction; except
through the medium of a solicitor, and then only in such a
mode as at once to cbmpel Mr. Stowell, from a regard to his
.own character, to place the matter in the hands of his solici-

for ;—that all the facts stated in the alleged libtl, except one,
Were capable of distinct prooL'by witnesses in court at the
time of the trial, and ready to verify them on oath, if the
counsel for the defence had not felt confident that the case
might be safely rested upon the point of law, and upon the
evidence produced by the plaintiff ;—that the single fact so
stated, and not capable of proof, was the command alleged to
have been given by the priest, the plaintiff, to perform the
penance mentioned in the libel ;—that, in consequence of the
secrecy of the confessional, this alleged fact can only be
proved by the alleged penitent, or by the plaintiff ;--that the
alleged penitent, immediately after the period of the alleged
penance, was confined as insane, and is now a lunatic in the
Lancaster Lunatic Asylum ;—that the plaintiff avowedly se-
lected a mode of proceeding which apparently gave Mr. Stbw-
ell the opportunity of proving the truth of the alleged libel,
although the plaintiff must have known, at the time of such
selection, that in consequence of the lunacy of the alleged
penitent, the fact, even if true, could not be proved ;—that by
adopting this mode of proceeding by action, upon the alleged
ground of giving Mr. Stowell an opportunity of justifying,
the plaintiff was enabled to avoid the mode of proceeding by

applying for a criminal information, the first Step of which
proceeding must have been his awn solemn denial, upon oath,
of the truth of the charge ;—and that the counsel for the
plaintiff abstained from any formal, express, and instructed
denial, on the part of his client, of the truth of the charge.
4. That it was distinctly admitted by the principal witness
for the plaintiff, that " it is within the province of a priest of
Roman Catholic church to prescribe to a member of his flock
penances for his sins," and that these penances are " a matter
left more or less to the discretion of the priest ;" that the

most casual reference to the Brieviary, a. portion of which
every priest is bound to read daily, under pain of mortal
sin,—and to the authorised " Lives of the Saints," canon-
ised by the Roman church, and that even so lately as in the
the year 1839,—wi1l prove that that church holds up to the

penances, similar in kind and severity, to that alleged by the
penitent, in the present case, to have been awarded to him
by the plaintiff; and that it is a matter of common notoriety,
that, within 18 hours' distance of the town where the trial
was held,—in a country upon which the public eye is more

the empire,—the infliction of penances, by crawling upon the
hands and knees, and so as to lacerate the persons of the
penitents, is•the daily and unblushing practice of the Roman
Catholic priests, who derive an infamous profit from the
system.

in which the witnesses for the plaintiff gave their evidence on
the trial ; and appeals to every candid reader of that evidence
for an unbiassed opinion upon the character of the principles
of the Roman Catholic church, and upon the tendency which
such principles must inevitably have on the minds of the most
respectable and conscientious of their professors.
6. That this committee, consisting of Protestant Chris-
tians, and bound, therefore, to render a cheerful respect to
the laws of the land, and to their authorised administrators,

alludes with the greatest pain and reluctance to the sentiments
reported to have been uttered by the judge who tried the
cause, upon certain tenets of Popery admitted and avowed by
one of the witnesses for the. plaintiff. His lordship, indeed,
is reported to have said, that "

ne did not think l''tintttle7
.cmarks, now alluded to, "bore very closely
subject," and that " was really beside the subjct,"
and yet took occasion—regretting that the Church of Rome
should have such a feeble advocate, if they wanted one, or
one so little inclined to advocate Roman Catholic tenets—to
explain away, as his lordship was best able, the monstrous
doctrine of the priestly power to forgive sins, which had been
plainly and boldly avowed by the witness, a person far better
qualified, on his lordship's own admission, to state the true
opinion of his church. Against such conduct, if correctly
represented, on the part of a judge of this Protestant land,
unprecedented as this committee believes such conduct to be
in the history of this country, since the glorious revolution

antly pro-

s_
est; and the committee is only preveriu from recording
hat protest in stronger terms of disapprobation, by the Con-
riction that their views on this subject, even thus feebly
ated, will meet with the sympathy of every lover of purity
id impartiality in the administration of justice.
7. That a fund be forthwith raised, distinct from the fund
r the ordinary purposes of this association, to be
I to the payment of the expenses already incurred
e, and of any further proceedings which Mr.
be advised to take ; and that this committee

____l support as will at once meet the exigencies of
mud demonstrate the determination of the Protes-
to withstand the efforts of the Roman Catholic
Ind that this committee grounds this appeal on the
siderations, that the attack made upon Mr. Stowell
on him in his character as a well-known and active
_f the Protestant cause, and with the view of dis-
couraging and depressing the Protestant interest generally.
8. That this committee cannot conclude the expression of
its opinions upon this most important occasion, without con-
gratulating themselves, and the friends of Protestantism ge-
nerally, upon sonic circumstances connected with the ca-selt has been openly avowed by the plaintiff's counsel, acting.
under the instructions of the Roman Catholic body, that the
cruel penances, constantly inflicted upon our Romani Catholic
fellow-subjects in Ireland, are penances e infliction of
c " as a
gentleman,
which, in this country, " would degrade " the u
inter
and dishonour him " in his calling as inflicter a
"
minister
of the gospel." No witness, called for the plaintiff, dared to
admit even his knowledge of such abominable practices.
Public attention has been directed to the absurd dogmas of
the Church of Rome. The personal character and high at-
tainments of one of the ablest efenders of the Protestant
cause have been fully vindicated and allowed; and the impu-
tation upon a Roman Catholic priest, of haying inflicted a
cruel and degrading penance, has been valued, by a jury of
English gentlemen, as having damaged him to the extent of
forty shillings only.

9: That triiscommittee takes the opportunity thus afforded
of calling the attention of the British public to the nature and
operations of Protestant and Reformation Associations, and
earnestly entreats continued and increased support to these
societies, whose sole objects are to vindicate the gospel of
. . _ • -
