The bill for the support of the West Point
Academy was read a third time, and passed.
The bill TO pay the army was taken up IN
committee of the whole.
Mr.. Thurman of Ohio, replied particularly
to his colleague, Mr.. De!ano, who addressed
the House yesterday. He endeavored TO show
that such sentiments as Mr.. Delano expressed
were similar to those indu ged by the Federal
lists during the last war with Great Britain.
Mr.. Sims ofMissouri, contended that the on
ly thing for US TO know was, that war exist
ed with Mexico, and that it should be prosecu-
led even 10 the capitol itself.
Mr.. c. Davis charged the President with
wsging war without the authority of Congress.
whish only has the power 10 declare war, and
denied that we had right to the soil as far az
the Rio Grande.
Mr. Hudson Zone Of the fourteen who voted
against the war billy justified his course-he
believed that the preamble did not contain the
truth, and beside our title was not good to ths
country as far as the Rio Grande. We were
the oppressors.
Mr. Jones of Georgia, answered Mes:rs. G.
Davis and Hudson.
The committee rose, and the House concur
red in the Senate amendments to the Forlifca-
ton bill.

in this city, respectfully announce TO their friends
and the public that they have concluded TO keep
their Washington Office open during the entire year
in future at their present location on
Pennsylvania AUe., beitoeen eth y lOh sts
where one both Of the partners may always he
found in attendance. They respectfully tender their
professional services to their friends and the public,
and invite all who may require the advice and skill
of the experienced and practical Dentist to call on
them, learn their terms, and examine their claims to
public confidence and patronage. They would par
ticularly call attention their patent method of fast
eping artificial teeth when set gold plate which
is used by them alone in the city OF Washington
The most prominent advantages are the following
lst. II saves the pain attendant upon the removal
of the roots Of the front teeth when in a healthy
condition, and makes those roots highly useful in
fastening the artificial teeth.
I'd. II gives the teeth greater frmness, rendering
them always much less troublesome and more USE
ful in the process OF mastication than the common
mode
Sd. 1t renders it easy to remove and replace the
teeth, which, together with the peculiar simplicity
of the fastenings, enable the wearer to keep them
always clean.
The great improvement secured by this patent
needs but to be in order to be understood and
used TO be appreciated. 1t is universally commend
ed by those who have availed themselves of its ad-
vantages.

York Of the highest responsibility and standing,
tanning the strongest and most favorable testmoni-
ais, both to the excellence Of his private charac-
ter, and his superior professional qualifications.
These satisfactory evidences of the man and the

and my wife and myself are now able, from person.
al experience, to add our equally favorable tes
timony in his favor gentleman and skifu
