best security for their advantages is to be
found in the use Of the
BRITISH ANTISEPTIC DENTIFRICE
This elegant I0sH PoWder, with a very
little use, eradicates the .Scursy in the
gums, and prevents the accumulation Of
Tartar, which not only blackens, but loos-
cns the teeth, and acoelerates their decay.
The Denlifrice thus removes the prevail

the hcaIthincss aud tiorldness Of the guns,

A proposition has been introduced in the
French Chamber of Deputies to abolish the
punishment Of Death. II receives the ap
probation and support of lafayette.
The following arc the remarks Of Lnfay
cite in the Chamber Of Deputies, while Tie
subject was under discussion:
Gen. Lafayette said. conceive. differing
with INV honorable colleague, that the nbol.
ton Of the penalty of death is n new princi.
pic. or rather a sentiment that ought To- be al
once cxamlnrd. II is 10 new idea tlat is
now laid before you--thc abolition of this
penalty has been called for At every period
il was demanded by some highly respecta
BILE members of tho Constituent Assembly,
by Adrian Duport; it wns demanded by the
father Of our honorable friend the author
OF the commentary on Montesquieu. How
deeply have We all to regret that it had not
been abolished ago. back. II is IN the
present day loudly called for in the United
States of America. From this. gentlemen.
you will perceive that many have formed n
decided opinion upon The subject. For my
own part. I shall demand the abolition of
the penalty Of death until am convinced
that human Judgment is infal,ible. Whnt
frightfu. use of tins penalty was made dur.
ing our forner revolution. The reflection
fills my soul with horror No mau, be
lieve, ever made use of il during these dis
as,rous times, withou, afterwards wishing
it were possible he could redeem with his
own blood the conAemnations in which he
had joined. But our present revolution
has character of generosity as well as Of
patriotism. and it would adorn it's com
mencement. were We to communicate this
great act Of humanity. I, therefore, vote
for its being taken into consideration.
