lizard TIMES AND RESUMPN-That un-
LII fashionable complaint of "hard times" and con-
sequenty frequent applications for credit, has induced
Dr. VAN PATTEN to announce thus publicly his
moderate and much reduced Of charges which he
will continue few weeks longer, after which he must,
in duty to himself and family, advance his terms to
correspond more nearly to those of his neighbors.
For inserting the ordinary incorruptibe teeth on
pivots, SO.
For inserting the premium incorruptible, and war
ranted to stand firm, IS.
For inserting the ordinary incompatible teeth upon
gold plate, IS; for inserting the best incorrupble
teeth upon fine gold plate initiating nature perfect
ly, to elude detection by ordinary observers, and to
be well adapted to the gums to be in every re-
spect inoensve md of great service in masication
well in articulation, Sc to 49, the charge for those
depending something on the number inserted.
Small cavities filled with the finest gold at ST..
Larger cavities with gold from 81 SO to 49,
9 For silver tin filings, never more than 81.
Extracting teeth or fangs so cents, specie.
Extracting childrens first or temporary teeth, any
number, for so cents
For cleaning or scaling teeth, per set, 81 to SO.
He considers the common practice of filling or
saving apart" the teeth exceedingly njudicious
with very few exceptions) that he will, when he
deems the operation necessary, perform it without
any charge.

PROFESSION rs PRACTICE

The Clay-whigs make great fuss whenever Cap
tain Tyler turns them out of Office they shout out
prescription prescription! J" But sooner do
they get the chance than they sweep the board
fell swoop.' In New York the Wing members of
the Common Council, with some who not mem
bers, held meeting Monday night, which they
termed Joint meeting and assumed to remove
the Democrats in Office and appoint the select of the
CLAY Clubs to fill the vacancies
AS none of the Democratic members were pr, sent,
they had it all heir own way and in the course of the
session removed 204 Office holders under the corpora
ton, from the corporation attorney down to the
watchmen. The Court of Errors will probably de-
eide next week on the title of the Wing members
from the sixth ward and if the Court should take the
democratic view Of the question: the work will all have
to 60 over again. and general restoration take place

ON THE OTHER TRACK

After assailing the President in violent terms for
not putting his friends in Office under him. the anti
Administration presses assail him in still more
bitter terms for doing that which they have heretofore
assaed him fo not doing! This is the consistency
of faction. This is the justice of ulirasm We
trust, however, that the President will pursue the
even tenor of his way. bold coursc-uprightIy
and firsIy pursued--wiIl carry him safely through
Let him turn out all those who prostitute their Offices
to the base purposes of doing the Administration in
justice, and deceiving the people This is the course
which will be sustained, and which will command the
rosIect Of the people.

3D. In some sections of the South high ia
riff is advocated; in others, in the North, pro-
lection is opposed. In Maysvle, Kentucky,
new Democratic paper has been recently es-
iablished to support a tariff for protection
In Mississippi, free trade is espoused. Most
of the Democratic members of Congress are in
favor of tariff for revenue, with incidental
protection, while the Wings agree with them,
and approve the Presidents recommendation,
but the same time yield obedience to Mr.. Clay's
General Orders" and insist upon repeal of
the suspending clause of the Distribution bill,
passed at the extra session. and preparations are
making for terrible fight on this subject The
coup de grace may be reserved for the Pres-
dent.

Democratic Senators, approved by most of the
Wing sheets, and abused by the Abolition pa
