TO ALL WHOM 1T NAY CONCERN.

IT was my good fortune to have very fine set Of
teethiargc sound and we'll set and they have, from
an early period received very ample portion Of my
care and attention. | preserved them 10 most
healthy and sound condition, TILL after several severe
attacks OF fever, | found that OF them begsn
TO decay resoried TO the aid Of such dentists as
were at hand, and had them put in order.
However as the plugs were quickly getting loose,
az coming out had again and again to apply for re-
ne"ai oil the same process Of plugging. And precisely
the same slate OF things, aud the same obsery atoms
apply to my wife. We finally had the extreme good
fortune To meet with DIR. G. w. Humphreys-for
positive good fortune consider it-and To procure
is unryalled services and skill, in putting teeth,
for the first time, in complete order. And, after the
experience Of various operations upon my own teeth
and comparing them with his, and witnessing the
thing upon others, and possessing myself no IN
considerable share Of mechanical skill and TACT UNI
hesitat ngy pronounce him Of the most accom-
plithed and skilful dentists that have ever known
and express my firm conviction that he has no SUI
perior In this country.
His style Of inserting plug blends the foil into
mass so solid, that takes polish like the most solid
metal and, whilst undergoing that process, seems to
become completely incorporated with tho tooth
The plug, when dseDgaged, can only be split or sep
araed by the file, had opportunity Of witness
ing AS TO his manner Of extracting teeth no certainly
has no equal in America, il we except DIR. Caldwell
whose system he PRACTICES and Is one Of three only,
to whom Dr. c. has impaired his secret.
therefore offer this voluntary testimony to DIR.
IL $ merits a dentist, and desire to recommend
him, not only TO such persons as may be acquainted
with me, but to the public generally.

TEE TOIT LOVER,
.4tale ofthe Ba''le o Brnnay'cine.

On the outskirts of the village Of New
ark, in Delaware, stood at the time Of our
story, a neat farm cottage, with majestic
elm growing before the door. In the dis
lance, over the fields and woodlands, could
be seen the spires Of the town and silvcry
Glimpse of the river Delaware, with a
group Of vessels of war, anchored rlll three
leagues off. The cottage stood lllc
back from the dust Of the frequently ira
yelled road, with green sward between.
II had an inviting appearance OF comfort,
and never failed to attract the eye of the
passing traveller.
The sun was near setting, one pleasant
afternoon in September, l777, when a
young man, half in uniform, half IN ciIi-
zen's dress, came ont of the cottage door,
followed by young aud interesting girl,
who was clIngng 10 his arm, and evidently
in earnest treaty with him. He was tall
and handsome, though sunbrowned, and
bore the appearance of young farmer
She was rustic too, in her dress, but her
face was very fair and beautiful, and heI
manners refined above the condition ,c
which she seemed to belong. Tears were
in her large blue eyes, and one Of hci
hands clasped his, while the other lay
upon his shoulder.
"lYhy will you go. dear George, into
this dreadful contest! Tomorrow go,

rcprehensible He says, IN. ID. Elwood, one oi
the resident engineers, has furnished him with a
calculation, which will bear the test Of the most
rigid scrutiny" Now, in the first place. as re-
CARDS n. d. Elwood's rank, can scarcely ina
CINE that Mr. Morris has, for the purpose of CIV
ing more weight to Mr.. Elwood's opinions, will
fully misrepresented his rank and station, on the
line, but, through lenity, will most willingly inn
pute it to ignorance, and can readily imagine tina,
Mr.. Morris, owing to his 81 Snt and pmti0l know
ledge of matters CONNECTED with the line of canal
might readily fall into the error Of mistaking
rodman for q resident engineer. am far from de-
string to inurc the feelings of Mr.. Elwood i" what
have said or shall say, as | am yet inclined to
believe he ncuer designed disrespcct to his supe
perior in rank but either Mr.. Morris has misre-
presented him. or he resigned himself an iRsirt..
mem into the hands of MIR. Morris to effect his
purposes. That Morris plan to injure Gooding
seems clear to me, from the fact that, during his
last visit to Lockport, which, believe, was in
October or November, he, from motives of econo-
my discharged Mr.. Hanchet, junior assistant
on the DIVISION ahoNc Juiett anu not oiiiy Tctal-
cd the rodman, (Elwood) but appointed him a
junior assistant by brevet or, at least, with saa-
ry of $500 since which time Elvood has been en-
gagged in teaching a school. Now, why was FL
wood appointed a, this time, when there was not
single contractor on tina, part of the line to re-
quire the attendance Of an engineer! Why was
he retaincd--or, rather. why was he not also dis
charged, since there were no longer any duties to
pcrlorm Why was this sinecure permitted
Evidently because the ungenerous intention en-
'crtained by the president with regard to Mr.
Goodiug, rendered i; necessary that tool Of this
kind should be at hand. But if, by any possible
ty, he can prove that the retention of Eiwood was
not altogether unnecessary nor with view to the
character he has sustained in the report, how will
he excuse himself for the violation Of the law and
powers conldcd to him in increasing the salary Of
Elwood ec001 BY no plea that would he, for a
moment, admissible. "Now, Jew, have thee on
the hip" You have betrayed the trust reposed
in you, in permitting sinccurc you have exer-
csed withheld powers, by increasing the salary
of an officer; and you have entangled in your
mcshcs and injured the reputation Of young man
who has hitherto borne reputation and character
unexcep,ionabic. Ii.

With bushes holds its little cup,
To catch the genial rain;
And then it looks 81 fresh nd fair,
Within it's native bower,
That all delight to breathe he air,
And lingcr near the flower.
Where fragrant lowers shoot up and grow,
And scent the balmy air,
The Savior babe his followers 90,
And seek instruction there;

How man may wiser I've,
Nav no, let the 1owcret preach
The temperance cause to Inc
Let drunkards drink the foamIng bowl,
And join the rcvelry,
If i; were mine I'd dash the whole,
Where all such bowls should be;
I'd think heard the rosy bush
Thus whispering merrily,
o HE thee where the waters qush
a nd take a glass with me"
Let smiling Fashion gaiy sip
Her sparkling glass Of wine,
I'd dash it quickly from my lip,
Ii such glass were mine:
Id think heard the iloweret speak,
go! would ye like 10 see
A flush like mine hcleck your check
Then come and drink with me.
When drunknrds breathe their latest breath,
Forgot or loahcd they lic
O! such death is not the death
That should like to die:
But let my drink, like tlowcrets gay,
The crystal waters be,
That when die, sweet memory may
Delight to dwell on me.
