TO CORRESPONDENTS.

We have to acknowledge the receipt of 2s. 6d. from Mr. W.
Benson, for the use of " Old Day, the Newsman." We
shall feel very happy in receiving any further contributions
for this veteran traveller, who has so lon.- catered for the
gratification of our townsmen. It is high time that some
provision should be made for him.
Several communications are unavoidably deferred until
Friday.

TUESDAY MORNING, JANUARY 14, 1840.

On Saturday we had three arrivals from New York.
The Independence reached this port in the morning,
after the long passage of thirty-two days, having left
New York on the 10th of December. The Liverpool
arrived at her moorings about half-past two o'clock,

bringing New York papers to the 15th of December,
inclusive. The Oxford arrived simultaneously with the
Liverpobringing papers to the 20th of December,
inclusive, • The Liverpool has brought in specie, bills
of exchange, and state bonds, about four millions of

dollars—the specie alone amounting to 1,131,443 dol-
lars. The total import of specie, by the Liverpool and
the Oxford, was 1,375,000 dollars, of which amount

the United States Bank is said to have shipped nearly
500,000 dollars.

It is singular that neither of the above vessels have
brought the President's message. So confident was
the expectation that that important document would
have been brought on Saturday, when the Oxford ar-
rived, that a contemporary of that day, in announcing
the arrival of news from America, stated, in conspicu-

MISCELLANEOUS.

•
There is said to be no lesS a sum than two millions and a
half spent annually in gin in the metropolis. To how many
thousands would this afford health and happiness if laid out
in raiment and food.. .
Tim CENTENARY FUND.,—The Watchman states that the
subscriptions of which information has been forwarded to the
secretaries, amount to £225,000, and that the sum actually
received by the treasurers exceeds £llO,OOO.

Five clusters of dark spots are now traversing the sun's
disc ; two of which arc particularly large, and should the
weather clear up, they will present a fine appearance, for the
telescope.
We understand that the Hon. G. Cavendish, one of the
members for Derbyshire, will move, and Sir W. Somerville,
Bart. member for Drogheda, will second, the address to her
majesty on the royal speech at the opening of the ensuing
session.—Globe.

A new organ for Exeter Hall has just been completed, at
an expense of from £l,BOO to £2,000. It is the largest in
London, and next in size to those of York and Birmingham.
It has two double diapasons, one of wood, the other of metal,
and a Posanne double trumpet, 16 feet high.

The two counties of Denbigh and Merioneth will no longer
be placed under one lord-lieutenant, but each will have a
lord-lieutenant to itself. We have heard Lord Dinorben
mentioned as likely to be lord-lieutenant of one of the coun-
ties.—Ministerial Paper.

A machine has lately been introduced on the extensive
works of Mr. James Hunt, of Bowden Hill, near Chipsen-
ham, for making bricks, which has excited much curiosity.
The cylinders revolve about once a minute. making in the
cour§e of each revolution about thirty-two bricks.—Taunton
Journal.

The workmen on the Grand Junction Railway, have turned
up near the Crewe station, on Sir John Chetwode's property,
a fossil tooth and part of a thigh bone of some immense ani-
mal. The tooth is perfect, and weighs, seven pounds : the
mean diameter of the thigh bone is 17 inches.
On Wednesday, the extension of the police, to a circle of
from ten to twelve miles round the metropolis, commenced
at Hendon, Barnet, CrOydon, Woolwich, Hounslow, Ron:-
ford, and ocher places. The new force is composed of a por-
tion of experienced men from the various divisions of the
metropolitan force.

•
Dr. Gregory, of the Small Pox Hospital, in a note to the
Editor of the Medical Gazette, states that the penny postage
will have a most remarkable effect upon the practice of vac-
cination, as it will bring to the door of every medical man in
the country a vaccine lymph from various sources at the
small charge of one penny.
ACCIDENT TO THE EARL OF .LICHFIELD.—Yesterday
(Friday) the Right Hon. the Earl of Lichfield, while enjoy-
ing the sports of the field at Ranton. Abbey, received a spent
shot in the eye. The circumstance occasioning considerable
alarm, the attendance of Dr. Knight and Air. Hughes was
requested, and we are happy to report that the shot was rea-
dily extracted, and not the slightest ill consequence is ex-
petted to follow,—Staffordsliire Gazette.

BRADFORD AND LEEDS RAILWAY.
We learn with much pleasure that the proposed branch to
Bradford of the Manchester and Leeds Railway is likely to
be taken up with proper energy. A survey, we are informed,
has just been completed, and the gradients are found to be
exceedingly favourable. The proposed branch would confer
great benefit on an important manufacturing. district. We
wish the spirited propjectors all the success they can desire.

GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY.—BOX TUNNEL.
Considerably more than half of the excavation of this stu-
pendous work has been executed, and as -new shafts have
been sunk by the contractor to regain the arrears at certain
points, no doubt is entertained that the tunnel may be com-
pleted within the present year. At the London end of the
line every exertion has been made that the weather would
allow, to complete the heavy cutting at Sunni4-hill, near
Reading. The earthwork is now just finished, and the bal-
last is being spread upon the line, after which =the laying of
the timber and rails will proceed rapidly. flood progress is
made with the station at Reading, and it is expected that the
railway will be opened to that town before April next.

(From Biackwood's Magazine for January.)

A youth caress'd and nurtured long,
Beneath the sky, beside the sea,
-Where rules a vivid world of song
The clear-eyed Queen Parthenope,
And wont to blend with outward grace,
The soul Virginian memory yields,
Might seek, with dull, (meager pace,
The cloudy north's Elysian Fields.
" Lowther," he cried, " cf ancient strength

Thy lofty towers the harness wear :
Thy terraces their mossy length
Extend through centuries of care.
In thine old oaks may Fancy read -

Of Worth and Power ;—Thou dolt not need
To fake the classic name in vain

LANCASTER AND PRESTON JUNCTION
RAILWAY.

On Friday last the above line of railway, which joins
the North Union line at Preston, and thus forms a continu-
ous line of railway from London to the county town, is opened
to the public for the conveyance to passengers, &c. The day
originally fixed upon was Vil hit-Monday, but Mr. Locke, the
engineer, was not satisfied as to its being safe, and a post-
ponement of a few days was considered desirable, but the
subsequent falling of a bridge at Myerscough rendered a fur-
ther delay necessary.
Yesterday was fixed upon for the directors and their friends
to make an experimental trip, and in the morning an engine of
the North Union Company, and four empty carriages, went
from Preston—the first that had passed the entire distance.
About half-past eleven, eleven carriages, drawn by two
steam-engines (the " Victoria" and " Prince Albert"), left
Lancaster with an extremely " heavy load," and arrived in
Preston in about an hour. At one o'clock this train was
increased by four carriages containing Preston gentlemen.
and the whole force set off to Lancaster. Upon their arrival
a splendid dinner was prepared, where the directors of the
Lancaster and Preston, the North Union, the Liverpool and
Manchester, the London and Birmingham, and the Grand
Junction lines, several gentlemen of Lancaster and the
neighbourhood, and some gentlemen from Preston, sat
down ; G. Burrell, Esq., chairman of the board of directors,
in the chair.

Every article was served in profusion and champagne,
claret, madeira, port, sherry, &c., added their sparkling
charms to the festive board.

Ample justice baying been done to the dinner, the four
carriages which had been attached to the train at Preston
'were dispatched homewards, and arrived in 55 minutes, the
distance being upwards of twenty miles.
At both ends of the line flags were floating, and every
bridge that crossed the line was crowded with persons, whose
shouts welcomed the crowded trains. At every gate on the
side of the line a cheer was raised, and at Lancaster many of
the shops were closed, and the day considered a holiday.
We are happy to state that not a single accident occurred to
mar the pleasures of the day, and all passed off to the satis-
faction of directors, proprietors, passengers, and spectators.

FOR BEAUTIFYING & PRESERVING THE HAIR.
rrHE genuine BOTANIC OIL has been uniformly proved
in every experiment to restore decaying and decayed
Hair, and in no one instance has it been known to fail. The
Proprietor is aware that an active perseverance in wiving a
regular supply of the Genuine Botanic Oil to hisbAgents
throughout the Kingdom is essentially necessary, in order
that it may maintain the high reputation it has acquired.
The Proprietor begs also to observe, that the spurious
imitations are a compound of noxious ingredients, productive
of dandriff, a general dryness of the scalp, depriving the
bulbs or roots of the hair of their proper nourishment, by
which the absorbents lose their action, a feverish heat of the
akin is produced, hence arise baldness and a general decline
of the hair. The Genuine Botanic Oil is sold in pot boxes,
at 25., 3s. 6r1., and 55., and in bottles, perfumed with roses
for the toilet, 103. each.
Be particular to ask for Middlesvood's Botanic Oil.
To Dealers in Perfumery, &c. &c., J. M. is now prepared
to supply the Genuine Botanic Oil, Wholesale, to any extent,
on liberal terms. It has attained a high pre-eminence over
every advertised Hair Oil, and Vendors will find it a profit-
able article—they may also warrant it to their customers. It
possesses every property it is so highly recommended for, and
which has distinguished it from other Hair Oils.

ARRIVAL OF THE UNICORN AT BOSTON.

This steamer, formerly employed in the trade between Li-'
verpool and Glasgow, and intended to ply between Halifax.
and Pictou, in connection with Mr. Cunard's line of Royal:
Mail Steamers, left Liverpool, under the command of Capt.,
Douglas, on the 16th ult., for Halifax and Boston. Al-.
though not built for ocean navigation, the Unicorn has made
a very fine run across the Atlantic. having accomplished the
passage between this port and Boston, including a call at
Halifax, where she stopped twelve hours, in eighteen days.
The account of the steamer's arrival at Boston is derived
from the New York correspondent of the Liverpool Chro -
nicle, who, in a letter dated on the sth instant, says :
" I have this morning received a letter from -Boston, dated
yesterday, which gives the gratifying intelligence, that the
steamer Unicorn arrived in that harbour on Wednesday even-
ing, the 3d instant.
" As the packet-ship Mediator has been detained in port'
till this date, and will sail to-day, I embrace the opportunity
to send you a few particulars relating to the Unicorn, leaving
you to glean what few items of news you may find in the
papers. - - _

Unicorn stopped at Halifax twelve hours, and left
there on Tuesday morning, the 2d instant. She was only
forty-one hours making her passage from Halifax. When it
was generally known that she was telegraphed at Boston,
hundred% and thousands of well-dressed persons, of both
sexes, flocked to the wharfs, anxious to see the first steamer
from Old England approach the shores of New England:
not two hours had elapsed, from the first moment she was
telegraphed, before the spectators had increased to almost
tens of thousands. Soon the beautiful steamer hove in sight,
and shouts, and cheers, and waving of handkerchiefs and hats
rendered the scene thrilling and grand. The Unicorn found
her destined lauding-place at East Boston, glided along to-
wards the Cbarlestcwn Navy-yard, while many salutes were
fired from many positions is the city and East Boston, which
were answered from the Unicorn. The United States ship
Columbus displayed a British ensign at her foremast, and her
band played several martial tunes. The steamer took a turn
towards Boston, passing very near the end of the wharfs, and
the cheers of the multitude at this time were electrifying.
After showing how beautifully she could walk the waters,
she turned about, and made for her wharf at East Boston,
where every inch of ground, for several hundred yards near
them, was occupied by the delighted spectators.
" The Unicorn experienced very heavy gales during nearly
her whole• passage across the Atlantic ; but the ship worked
admirably, and would, undoubtedly, it is said, have made the
voyage in twelve days if the weather had been at all favour-
able. The passengers were so delighted with Capt. Douglas,
that they subscribed a sum of money sufficient to purchase a
splendid piece of plate, which they intend to present him as
a testimony of their regard towards him."

LOOSE TEETH FASTENED,

And filling Decayed Teeth with Mistral Marmoratum.

Moss. LE DRAY and CO., SurgelOn-Dentists, respect-
fully inform the Nobility, Gentry, and Inhabitants of Liver-
pool and its vicinity, that they have opened an Establishment
permanently at No. 38, SEEL-STREET, eight doors from
Berry-street. They continue to fill up the cavities of De-
cayed Teeth with their Mineral Marmoratum, 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, pre-
venting and curing the Tooth-ache, arresting all further pro-
gress 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. LE DRAY and Co. have to inform them,
that they can effectually remove this destructive complaint
by a single application, without the slightest pain.
Mons. LE DRAY begs to introduce to the notice of his
Patients and the Public, an entire new description of IN-
CORRODIBLE ARTIFICIAL TEETH, and can ;with
confidence guarantee them to answer every purpose:of Mas-
tication 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-
plesant 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, at the
following Paris Charges :
A single Artificial Tooth
A complete Set ........................
A complete Set of Natural Teeth, on fine
gold plate .......................... 15 0 0
An entire Set of Natural or Terro Metal-
lie Teeth, highly finished, in the fii E t
style, with fine gold sockets, usually
charged 40 guineas
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 Seven, and on Sunday
from Nine till Two.

•• . .E 0 10 0

:if For the convenience of country patients, Monsieur
LE DRAY and Co. are enabled to fix a partial or complete
set of Teeth at one sitting, without the least pain or incon-
venience.
