rrHE EPITAPH of MARGERY SCOTT, in the ]
Churchyard of Dunkeld, in Scotland :
Stop, reader, here, until 14 life yog've read,
The living may gain knowledge from the dead :
Four times five years I lived a virgin's life,.
Ten times five years I was a married wife,
Ten times five years a widow, grave and chaste ;
Now, weary 'd of this mortal life, I rest.
I, from my cradle to my grave, have seen
• Eight mighty Kings of Scotland and a Qneen ;
Four times five years the Commonwealth I saw,
Ten times the subjects rise against the law;
Twice did I see old Prelacy pulled down,
And twice the cloak did sink beneath the gown ;
An end of Stuart's race I saw, nay, more,
I saw my country sold for English ore ;
Such desolation in my time has been,
That I've an end of all perfection seen.

BULLOCK'S CAMPHOR TOOTH PASTE.
THIS beautiful preparation has been established upwards
of eleven years. The distinguished patronage which it
has received from families of distinction ever since its intro-
duction to the public is alone sufficient to stamp its merits.
It is the best composition for cleaning the teeth, preserving
and strengthening the gums, and preventing the toothache.
The teeth, however foul and discoloured by neglect, will, on
using the paste a short time, acquire a beautiful whiteness.
It removes scurvy, and sweetens the breath.—Prepared only
by Mr. BITLLocx, Family Chemist, 3, lower end of Princess-
street, Manchester. To be had retail of Mr. PRIESTLEY,
Druggist, Ldrd-street, Mrs. CREW, Library, Castle-street,
MAYNARD, sold-street, WAGSTAFF, St. James's-street,
LLOYD, Parker-street, and W. W. KING, Soho-street,
Liverpool, and all respectable Chemists, Medicine Vendors,
and Perfumers, in pots, 2s. each ; Wholesale Agents, Messrs.
BARCLAY, Farringdon-street, London, and Messrs. EVANS,
SON, and Co., Lord-street, Liverpool.
N.8.--Be sure to ask for " Bullock's Camphor Tooth
Paste."

DAILY ATTENDANCE.
ivrONS. MALLAN, SURGEON DENTIST, of the.firm
IVA. of Messrs. JAMES M. and S. MALLAN, No. 10, Lud-
gate.hill, London.

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 Suecedanemn

Mons. JAMES M. and S. MALLAN, Surgeon Dentists,
rcApectfully inform the Nobility, Gentry, and Inhabitants of
Liverpool and its vicinity, that they have opened an Esta-
blishment, permanently, at No. 23, RODNEY-STREET,
opposite Leece-street, where Mons. Mallan may be consulted
DAILY thiOnghout the year.. They continue to fill up the
cavities of Decayed Teeth with their Mineral Suecedaneum,
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, with 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, at fixed
and moderate Charges.

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.
Jiatus M. & S. MALLAN are enabled to fix a partial or
complete set of Teeth at one sitting, without the least pain or
inconvenience. •
No. 23, Rodney-street, opposite Leece-street.

IMPERIAL WIT.—M. Slade represents the present Empe-
ror of Austria as having, while heir apparent, been guilty of
a witty thing ; the most favourable description we have ever
seen of him. "At a soiree, where ' question and answer'
was the game, the question was put, which is the strongest
part of a man ? ' One gave his opinion for the leg, another
opined for the arm, and so on. When it came to the King of
Hungary's turn to reply, the courtiers were rather uneasy,
knowing his oddness ; but he relieved them by saying that
he considered the nose to be the strongest part of a man.
After the laugh bad subsided at this unexpected selection, he
was asked to explain. ' I think so,' he replied because
Prince Metternich, as you know, has led my father by the
nose for twenty years, and yet the nose is as good as ever.' "
DOMESTIC TRAGEDY.--The following shocking narrative
is published by the Droit :—" M. C. was formerly at the
head of a commercial house of considerable importance, but,
having failed in business, became reduced to take a situation
as shopman. He lived with his wife, a woman of good family,
his daughter, aged 16, and three sons, all younger. Madame
C. received assistance from her father ; but he resisted all
her importunities to place her daughter in aboarding-school,
and give her a superior education, alleging that it would be
inconsistent to bring the girl up as a lady, while her brothers
were obliged to earn their own living as journeymen. Ma-
demoiselle C. was, in fact, sent out as an apprentice ; but her
mother, during an absence of M. C. sent for her home on
Saturday last, loaded her with caresses, and then sent her
back again to her business. In the evening the mother re-
tired with her three sons to their chamber, put them to bed,
and after fastening the door and writing several letters,
lighted several braziers of charcoal, and seating herself at the
foot of the bed in which her sons were all asleep, patiently
waited for death to come upon them all. On Sunday
51. C.
returned, and not finding his wife and children stirring, but
their chamber closed, had it broken open, and found their
corpses. Madame C. was still at the foot of the beci, with
her hands clasped as if in prayer; but the boys, from the po-
sition of their arms and their clenched hands, bad evidently
suffered great agonies. Two of them had left their bed, and
dragged themselves towards their mother. Among the let-
ters was one by Madame C. to her father, entreating him in
most affecting terms to continue the education of her daugh-
ter,ya s
the
as by the death of herself and bet
esttleirray edesonshe w
re-
lieved from a heavier burden."afternoon
Rue du Petit Carreau, in which this unfortunate family re-
sided, was crowded with people to view the mournful pro-
cession of three hearses hung with white, in which were the
coffins of the three boys, followed by a fourth with black
drapery, bearing
' the remains of their infatuated mother to
'lanes Messenger.

PAST AND PRESENT PAY OF PLAYERS.—John Kemble,
for acting and managing, had a weekly salary of £36 ; Miss
O'Neil's salary, at the beginning of her brilliant career, was
£l5, and never exceeded £25 per week; George Cooke
(greatly attractive) had £2O per week ; Mrs. Jordan's
salary, in the zenith of her popularity, was £3l 10s. per
week; Mr. Charles Kemble, until h b
e ecame his own
manager, never had more than £2O per week ; Dowton had
£l2, and never more than £2O per week. Up to 1822 (and
during the greater part of her career to that period she was
highly attractive), Miss Stephens,
the present Dowager
Countess of Essex, had £2O per week ; but in the following
season at Drury-lane she was paid at the rate of £6O per
week. In 1822, Mr. M •acread had
y
1832, and up to 1837 (barring an interregnum alluded to in a
preceding chapter), lie had £3O per week ; and in 1839, he
had the modesty to demand and to receive £25 per night. In
1832, Mr. Power had £2O ; he is now, and for some time
past has been, in the receipt of £l2O per week. In 1822,
Mr. Farren had £l6 per week ; in 1832, £3O per week, and
at present receives £4O per week. In 1822, Mr. Liston had
£l7 per week ; he then sprung up to £5O and £6O per week,
and finally had £2O per night. Miss Ellen Tree, when en-
gaged with me to play at both theatres, and eventually only
at one, had £l5 per week : she went to America, staved there
two seasons, and returned to stipulate for and to recive £25
per night. * * * * * Then, to think while such actors
as Emery had £l2 per week, Incledon £l2. John Bannister
£lB, H. Johnston £lO, &c. that Bartley should ever have
had £2O per week—that Templeton, who had £6, 'should now
demand £3O, and refuse £2s—that Harley should have had
£2O, Cooper £lB, &c.—is enough to astonish and make one
downright sick.—Bunn's The Stage.
