ANOTHER FESTIVAL.

HE irresistible march of science has, in the production of that
T
incomparable spirit, BE'TT'S PATENT FRENCH DIS-
TILLED BRANDY, discovered a substitute even superior to its
favourite prototype! Inferior French and Spanish Brandies (of
which the consumption is by no means inconsiderable) will not
bear with it the slightest comparison. The most mpetent judges
hive repeatedly expressed their perfect aston' nment at its exact
imitation of the finest Cognac. Chemists ustly celebrated for
their scientific attainments, have upon an yzation pronounced
it a more pure and wholesome spirit; Ile its price is but lit-
tle more than half that of French Breit --viz., 18s. per imperial
gallon.
It is, then, to the patriot, who studies his country's weal—to
the connoisseur, who delights in a delicate flavour—to the agri-
culturist, from whose produce it is made—to the economist,
whose prudence it invites—to the invalid, whose health and
comfort it promotes—to the prejudiced, who haze hitherto sill-
fared their judgment to be enslaved—and to the consumers of
Brandy in every class of society, that J. 'F. BETTS and Co.
confidently appeal for patronage and support.
J. T. BET'I S and Co. had flattered themselves that the un-
precedented extent of sale and admitted superiority in the
quality of their PATENT FRENCH DISTILLED BRANDY, would,
ere now, have wholy dissipated the prejudice which has been
known to exist in the minds of many persons against Brandy
manufactured in this country, and which, before the introduc-
tion of their article, was. perhaps, justifiable. If a patronage,
as distinguished as it is extensive, including many thousand
families of every rank and class of society in all parts of the
kingdom, be any proof of merit, then has the PATENT BRANDY
irresistible claims to universal support.
J. T, BETTS and Co. could well have afforded to rest their
claims to the merit of ,having introduced an unrivalled produc-
tion on such incontrovertible evidence. But theY feel that the
public, rather than themselves, are interested in the announce-

DAILY.
MINERAL SUCCEDANEUM,
FOR FILLING DECAYED TEETH WITHOUT PAIN, HEAT, OR

PRESSURE, AND
INCORRODIBLE MINERAL TEETH,
Without Wires, Springs, or any other Ligatures,
Patronized by the Royal Families of England and France.
O.NS. J. M. and A. MALLAN, No. 46, Bocn-sTREET,
JL. Liverpool, and 82, KING-STREET, Manchester, SURGEON
DENTISTS, (of the Firm of Malian and Sons, Great Russell
street, Bloomsbury, and Half-moon-street, Piccadilly, London,
where they may be consulted daily:) ardently thank their
Friends and the Public, for the distinguished support which
they continue to receive.
Monsieur J. M. and A. M. continue to restore decayed Teeth,
however large or small the cavity, with their celebrated MINE-
RAL SITCCEDANEUM, so universally recommended by the
Faculty of England, France, and other Continental cities; the
operation of stopping decayed Teeth is performed in a few
seconds; the Mineral is put into the cavity in an almost liquid
state, without pain, heat, or pressure, hardens into Enamel,
allays the most excruciating pain, making a stump into a whole
Tooth, and lasts for many years, preventing the necessity of
extraction.
Messrs. M. during their course of study have adopted a mode
' of fastening Loose Teeth, particularly of aged persons, whether
arising from neglect, or tue use of Calomel, or disease of the
Gums.
Incorrodible Mineral Teeth placed, from one to a complete
set, which are incapable of discolouration or corrosion, fixed
without wires or ligatures, renders it impoible to distinguish
the Artificial Teeth from the natural ones', and warranted to
answer every purpose of articulation arWmastication, and will
be found in every respect amply competent to supply the place
of their predecessors. Natural Teeth fixed on the above im-
proved principle.
The Faculty are constantly welcome to witness the applica-
tion of the MINERAL. SLCCEDASELM, which they so universally
recommend.
Messrs. M. recommend to parents, and others having the care
of children, to be particular in having the Teeth examined pre-
vious to their second growth, as various diseases of the mouth
have arisen from that neglect. Charges as in Paris.
CA u ON.—Messrs. M ALLAN conceive it necessary to caution
the Public against imposition—they are the only Proprietors
and Discoverers of the Mineral Succedaneum.

THAMES POLICE.

SEAMEN'S WAGES.—On Tuesday, Mr. Fletcher, the owner
of the United Kingdom, West Indmman, which was lately run
down by the Queen of Scotland steam-vessel, in the river, ap-
peared to answer the complaint of William Vickery, a seaman,
who claimed the suns of £lO, wages due to him for a voyage to
Jamaica and back to the port of London, under articles at
£2 10s. a month. The claims of the rest of the crew depended
00 the decision.
The complainant having been sworn, deposed to having per-
formed the voyage, and that on the morning of Sunday, the
15th instant, while the ship was riding at anchor in Noithfieet
Hope, she was run down by the steamer.
MI% Ballantine asked what had become of the ship?
Mr. Fletcher.—She is lying sunk now in Gravesend Reach.
Mr. Ballantine.—And I suppose your answer to this is that
the crew have not earned freight?
Mr. Fletcher said his answer to the case was not that they
had not earned freight, but that after the ship was run on board
of by the Q,men of Scotland steamer, the crew abandoned her
and left her to her fate. About three-quarters of an hour after
the steamer struck the ship she went down, but not in deep
water, and the whole of the crew, with the exception of the
mate and the boatswain, left her and came to London. On
Monday morning, the day after the occurrence, he went on
board, Sand, on asking for the crew, was surprised to hear that
they had deserted her. He was three days and nights on the
ship assisting to get her off, and, owing to the absence of the
ship's company, was obliged to employ lumpers and lightermen.
Sailor.— i asked the Mate what we were to do, and he said
there was no more for us to do, and we left. I risked my lice
to cut away the tackle of the jib.
Mr. Baltantine said he could not order payment of the wages.
The law said that a seaman could not earn wages unless he
earned freight, which was the mother of wages. The crew had
not earned freight ; they left the vessel before the freight was
secured, and if they abandoned the ship they abandoned their
*ages.
Mr. Fletcher said he would certainly have paid the men their
wages if they had made any effort to save the ship and cargo.
To show that he had not acted on a hasty conclusion, he handed
in a letter he had recently received from his mate, in answer to
one he had written, in which the fact of the desertion of the
crew was placed beyond doubt.
-Mr. Ballantine.—l am of opinion this claim is not made out
and I dismiss the case.
Mr. Fletcher said the crew had commenced .proceedings
against him in the Admiralty Court, and he had instructed his
proctor to resist the demand.

FRIDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 27, 1833

By the Constitution, Captain WILSON, which reached
this port on Wednesday night, we have accounts from
New York to the 4th instant. The letters received by
this conveyance acknowledge the receipt of intelligence
from this port to the Bth ultimo. At that period the state
of our market for the great staple, cotton, was arproach-
ing its highest limit; and the accounts which will reach
us within the next three weeks may probably determine
the character of the American market fur the coming
crop, so far as depends on British consumption. The
New York papers are engaged in a somewhat angry dis-
cussion on the management of the Bank of the United
States. The Mercantile Advertiser of the 3d instant
contains some details of the ba►barous murder of
Colonel WOODBINE and his family, on their estate at
I Maraparata, about two leagues from Carthagena (de
Columbia). Colonel W. had distinguished himself
' during his command in the state of Florida in 1815
There appears to be little else interesting in these jour-
nals, which extend only three days beyond the dates
brought by the packet-ship Hibernia, which arrived here
on Sunday last.

We have received intelligence from Jamaica to the Gth
ultimo, with private letters down to the sth. We sub
join extracts from a portion of our private correspon-
dence, the tone of which has been much changed since

the alteration in the conditions of the measure of eman-
cipation had reached them. It must, however, be
remembered, that at the date of these letters the know-
ledge of the curtailment of the period of apprenticeship,
conceded by Ministers on the 25th of July, had not
transpired in Jamaica. The vacillation exhibited by
Government in the arrangement of the details, of which
that abridgment was a striking example, may again
prove a serious disappointment to the colonisti; the ex-
tent of which can hardly be known until the mode, as
well as the quantum of compensation shall be fully before
them; together with the accompanying explanations on

the course to be pursued in the administration of the
laws, by the magistracy or otherwise. We sincerely
wish that the next accounts from the various islands and
colonies may overturn those views, which a sincere
conviction induced us to adopt, with reference to the pro-
bable working of this important measure. Meanwhile
we proceed with our extracts:—
