COMMERCIAL ESTABLISHMENT,
No. 7, HOUGHTON-STREET.
INR. and MRS. HEWITT having taken the Establish-
V 1 ment lately carried on by MO, Holmes, No. 7,
Houghton-street, beg leave to inform their Friends and
Commercial Gentlemen, that, at a great expense, they have
refitted the Establishment with every article new, and from
the first houses, and hope, by unremitting attention and mo-

TO THE ELECTORS OF LIME-STREET WARD.

AVING before come forward as a Candidate to repre-
lAL sent your Ward in the Town Council, and having on
those occasions stated my views of the course of conduct to
be pursued by your Representatives, I should have satisfied
myself on the present occasion with the simple announce-
ment of my intentions, had I not found much misrepresenta-
tion, at least I may say much misapprehension, existing with.
respect to my views.
I have been opposed to what is termed a personal canvass,
thinking it better that the Electors should be left to deter-
Mine for themselves, without the solicitation of any patty.
But I am now satisfied that a personal interview is almost
in'any case necessary, more especially for the justification
of the Candidate; and did time permit, I should seek this;
but as I have not the opportunity, I must take leave thus to
address myself to you.
It is most gratifying to me to know, that in no instance
have I been objected to on personal grounds; that in almost
every instance I have been assured that if I had gone, or
would come forward, on the " Reform" side, as it is termed,
I should have had the votes of the parties; but that if they-
were to vote for me under present circumstances, it would do
the cause of Reform harm.

I must suppose (for I cannot get a clearer definition of the
grounds of objection than I have before stated) that I am
represented as opposed to Reform.
If by supporting Reform is meant a determination to ex-
clude every person, whatever their standing or qualifications
may be, unless they will commit themselves to one course of
action, and a determination to make politics the groundwork
of eligibility for offices and situations, for contracts and for
employments, to such Reform I am opposed.
But I hesitate not to say, and refer to all my acts in the
old Council, that I am as sincerely disposed to further and
carry out every amendment of our Local institutions, and
to improve and advance the prosperity of the Town, as any
Gentleman of the Council; giving, at the same time, that
due consideration to any matters which shall neither make
individual property the victim or the impediment of public
improvements.

Politics should not enter into a discussion such as this;
but they are so much made an ingredient, that it is scarcely
possible to avoid an allusion.

I have always advocated the throwing open the election c)
Representatives, both for Parliament and for the Municipal
Council, though the consequence of the latter was the depri-
ving myself of a seat which I then held.

I have equally supported religious toleration; but I at the
same time avow, that I am most decidedly opposed to every
measure which shall have the effect of weakening the Church
Establishment ; feeling satisfied that its existence is the best
protection for religious toleration, and that ❑o day will have
to be more lamented by Dissenters of all classes than that
which shall put an end to the Church Establishment.
1 am, Gentlemen,
Your faithful servant,
AMBROSE LACE.

T 1 EASTEE having been in the habitTiUrtlese Fifteen
4 • Years past, of Importing from the Continent every
description of Article in the Fancy Line for the Wholesale
and Export Trade, is now enabled to offer to the Public
FRENCH CLOCKS, PORCELAIN ORNAMENTS,
ACCORDIONS, (of the most recent construction,) and a
variety of other FANCY ARTICLES, at such Retail Prices
that no other House in the Trade can compete with.
The advertiser takes this opportunity of observing, that his
establishment, although extensive, is conducted on a scale of
economy that enables him to undersell houses which, in
imitation of the gin palaces of London, expect to mislead the
public with dazzling and expensive fixtures, and thereby
obtain enormous profits.

LAMPS, GAS CHANDELIERS, LUSTRES, PAPIER
MACHE TRAYS, AND CHIMNEY ORNAMENTS.
'WORN HUNT begs respectfully to inform the Nobility,
..11 Gentry, and the Public generally, that he has RE-
MOVED from No. 74, to the Premises lately occupied by
Mr. F. BURY, No. 92, BOLD-STREET, (12 Doors from Col-
quit-street,) where he solicits attention to a most Extensive
Assortment of GAS LAMPS. CHANDELIERS, and
FITTINGS of every description, highly-improved OIL
LAMPS, in Ormolu and Bronze, elegAnt LUSTRES, hand-
some BRONZE INKSTANDS, glk of which, from expe-
rience acquired by strict applicati4 for a 'series of years,
he has been enabled to select of such quality, and at prices
so low, as cannot fail to give satisfaction. In Gas Lamps,
Chandeliers, and Fittings, J. H. has adopted all those Mo-
dern Improvements which have tended so much to increase
the usefulness of that brilliant mode of lighting. The in-
structions given to Parties who may employ the Advertiser,
(and which can only be given by a person who has a thorough
knowledge of the Mechanical brimch,) will enable them to use
both Oil and Gas Lamps without detriment to the most deli-
cate Furniture.

J. H. has also selected from one of the first Manufacturers
in the Kingdom a very elegant assortment of PAPIER-
MACHE TRAYS and ORNAMENTS, of various descrip-
tions.

A most superb assortment of ALABASTER ORNA-
MENTS, in Figures, Groups, and Vases, all of which are
recently imported, and are marked at extremely low prices,

MONS. LE DRAY, SURGEON-DENTIST, from the
Firm of LE DRAY & CO., London.
SCURVY IN THE GUMS EFFECTUALLY REMOVED,
ARTIFICIAL TEETH SUPPLIED.
WITHOUT WIRES, SPRINGS, OR CLASPS.
LOOSE TEETH FASTENED.
AND FILLING DECAYED TEETH WITH MINERA L MAHMORATUM.
MONS. LE DRAY & CO., Surgeon-Dentists, respectfully
inform the nobility, gentry, and inhabitants of Liverpool and
its vicinity, that they have opened an Establishment perma-
nently at No. 70, SKEL-STREET, eight doors from Berry-
street. They continue to fill up the cavities of decayed teeth
with the 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, preventing and curing
the tooth-ache, arr./sting all further progress of decay, and
rendering the operation of extraction unnecessary. The mi-
neral 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 invaria-
bly accompanies a decayed tooth.
Among the various disorders of the teeth and gums, there
is 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 cruntitutions, 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.
plieation without the slightest pain. '
Artificial and natural teeth, of surpassing beauty, fixed from
one to a complete set, without extracting the roots or giving
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-
ced by the wearer with the greatest facility—at the following
Paris charges :
A single Artificial Tooth £o 10 0
A complete Set 5 5 0
A ceinplete Set of Natural Teeth on fine
gold plate
An entire Set of Natural or Terro-Me-
tallic Teeth, highly finished, in the first
style, with fine gold sockets, usually
charged Forty Guineas
Loose teeth fastened, arising either from age, disease, or
mercury, and deficiencies of palate effectually remedied. Ar-
tificial 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 Sundays from nine
till two.
