From Professor Dtcute.
Having examined some Artificial Teeth prepared py
Dr. F. n Knap and learned from him what the prln-
ca ingredients into their composition, and the
nature Of the materials by which they colored, am
inclined to think that they win prove as he represents
them to Be- ncorruptble. Dr. Knapp, having moreover
acquired the art Of varying he colors OF the enamel
which covers his Artificial Teeth, is thereby enabled 10
