Tarvin Hall, September, 1814.

A rencontre took place at an early hcur on Wednesday
morning last, between Mr. Potter, jun., son of the Mayor
of Newcastle, and Mr. Hernaman. editor of the Newcas-
tle Journal, when the former inflicted on the latter a
severe horsewhipping, in consequence of repeated perso-
nal reflections on the character of Mr. Potter, sen., hav-
ing appeared in the Journal. The matter, it is under-
stood, will undergo legal investigation.
FURS.—Ir will be seen by an advertisement in the first
page of our paper, that the blanch of the Columbia River
Fur Company are offering to the public every new and
fashionable design in this useful and necessary article of
winter apparel, at prices, we hear the ladies say, sur-
prisingly low. The immense resources of the company,
and the fact of their concern, extensive as it is, being only
a branch of a still more important one, are things that
argue well for their being able to compete with any other
establishment ; at least those of our readers who are
about to purchase, should inspect their extensive stock.
The TEETH have ever been considered as forming one
of the most pleasing ornaments of the human counte-
nance, and their preservation demands our utmost care
and attention. Indeed, if there be any loss that more
particularly affects the countenance than another, it is
that of the Teeth ; which the Dentist, howe
. ingens as,
must ever vainly hope satisfactorily to replace by artificial
contrivance. The DECAY of the TEETH and Gums
arises from various causes ; but, incipally, it may be
attributed to early neglect, ill he h, or the use of Tooth
Powders containing mineral Fyt stances and deleterious
acids, which give temporary 71:iteness to the Teeth, while
they corrode the enamel. TO this fact, indeed, is princi-
pally to be attributed the king Botanical Research, which
was happily terminated ,by the most felicitous discovery
ever given to the worl for the PRESERVATION of ti,
TEETH, Gems, and BREATH. viz.—ROWLAND'S
ODONTO, or PE RI, DENTRIFICE. Prepared
from Oriental Herb with unusual care, and transmitted
to this country at eat expence, ROWLAND'S ODONTO is
no less distingui ed for its powerfully efficacious, anti-
dotal, and purl ying virtues, in immediately arresting
caries, or decay in the Teeth, than for its stimulative
properties in fixing them (when loose) firmly in their
sockets, and in giving a healthy redness and firmness to
the Gums. Its corrective properties are in partidular
most pleasingly displayed in respect to the BREATH—to
which it imparts a sweetness and fragrance not a little
gratifying to its possessor. As the most efficient and fra-
grant aromatic cleanser of the Mourm, TEETH, and
Gums ever known, ROWLAND'S ODONTO has now for a
long series of years occupied a distinguished place at the
Toilets of the Sovereigns and the Nobility throughout
Europe, while the general demand for it at once announces
the favour in which it is held by the public at large. It
should never be forgotten, that when used early in life, it
effectually prevents all aches in the Teeth and Gums—
effaces all Spots and Discoloration whatsoever—eradicates
Scurvy—and, in a word, soon realizes the chief attribute
of Health and Beauty—A BEAUTIFUL SET OF TEETH !
Price 2s. 9d. per Box. The " Genuine Article" has the

ISLINGTON, LlVERPOOL.—lslington, formerly " Folly-
Lane," was so called from a building which received
the name from its singular appearance. It stood on the
site of Christ Church, and was an appendage to a house
" Gibson's Coffee House," then
of entertaiment, called
much frequented. The Coffee house being inadequate to
the wants of the customers, " mine host" applied to his
landlord, Alderman Shan-, to build an additional room.
The alderman having given his consent, Gibson erected a
tower, six yards square and six stories high, at the :op t f
which was a leaded roof, whence splendid views of the
surrounding country were obtained. These gardens were
the favourite resort of the upper and middle classes for
many years, and great regret was expressed on the tower
being taken down in 1769. The gardens were very exten-
sive, and well stocked with fire fruit trees and flowers.
There were two large fish ponds, in which fish of different
descriptions and water fowl were kept. There were also
howling-greens and skittle-alleys. The " Folly" was
noted for its fine ale, which was generally drank in the
gardens. A great gathering of the townspeople regularly
took place at Easter or Whitsuntide. Long after the
" Folly" had disappeared, the public-houses in the vici-
nity were frequented by idle people at that period ; hence
arose " Folly Fair," which was discontinued in 1819.
