New Dental Di.covc.y.

DR.. Allen, ofCincinnati, after expert
menting for years, has succeeded mac
complishing a new Improvement IN den
tai science, which is likely to prove. of
great value. 1t consists of a composition
of mineral substance, which can be united
to metallic plates by fusion. BY this i'm
provcment, five essentialpoints are claimed
to have been gained-great strength; a
most perfect artificial gum. of any desir7
able color; the necessity of back plating
is obviated; the soldering of the teeth to
the plates is dispensed with, and a more
perfect state of cleanliness is secured
The invention has been submitted to the
savans of the West, who, it is said, have
reported strongly in its favor. To those
who are so unfortunate as to require new
sets of teeth, any discovery which is cal
culated to obviate existing difficulties is
important, and the new invention OF DR.
Allen will doubtlessly be Immediately
put in practice.

Presidential spccnEations.

Mr.. Greeley, writing from Washington,
expresses the belief that the contest for the
presidential nomination OH the Wing side will
be between Mr.. Webster and Gen. Scott, Mr.
Fillmore being disinclined to tempt the chan

refusing to have his name used by his friends,
Gen. Scott appears to be the stronger of the
two among the whig politicians gathered at
Washington. On the locofoco side, Mr. BG-
chanan has considerable strength; Gen. Bat
Ter comparatively little, and Gen. Cass none
at all. On the whole, Mr. Douglass's seem
to be the best.

Has commenced operations under its
new charter. For some months both the
Directors and the stockholders halted
between the two opinions whether to pro-
ceed or to wind up-and finally conclu-
ded to go on by only one majority. Not
that any doubt was felt of the ability of
the Bank to meet all its engagements,
but because of the excessive taxation to
which banking institutions are subjected
in this commonwealth. The Honesdale
Bank is required to pay in taxes this year
eleven thousand eight hundred dollars, on
a capital Of 100000. Such taxation is
monstrous. In the European country
most tax-ridden, no such exhorbitant levy
is made upon any class of citizens. No
where but in Pennsylvania would such
oppressive exactions be endured. What
would the farmers and lumbermen of
the county think if they were taxed
nearly twelve per cent.-not upon low,
fictitious valuation of their property, but
upon its full market value? Such taxa
tion is outrageous, whether laid upon far
mers, lumbermen, or bankers, Homes

The Reading Journal diggs it into the

ing pithy style, urging them to ''hurry up the
the cakes" Ifthey are in earnest, the SOON
they commence getting out petitions, &c. to
Congress, the better. Let them show by their
substantial acts, that they are not merely
humbugging the people.
ATTENTION, Tariff DExo GRATIS .-Presi-
dent Fillmore takes occasion, in his recent mes
sage, to again recommended modification
Of the existing Tariff: The reasons urged
for change are precisely similar to those
advocated by the Democracy Of Berks in coun-
ty Meeting assembled. 1t now remains for
ongress-largely Democratic in both bran
ches-to carry out the suggestion of the Ex-
ecutive. Will it be donet Will the "Dem-
ocracy" Of the Union come up to the work,
or will it turn ont, as is more than half sus-
pected that their professions are insinccre and
only intended for political effect As our
friends on the other side have volunteered to
, take the suffering interests Of the country un-
der their especial protection, they viii oblige
US by going to work in earnest. Congress
is now in Session. Petitions in favor of the
modification Of the Tariff would be perfecsly
in order. Why not get them out and procure
signatures at once! There is no use ca Hing
meetings, passing resolutions, and making
flaming speeches in regard to what ought TO
be done. The people expect action. They
have been humbugged long enough. Gen
tlemen, if you are really sincere do hurry up
! those petitions, and push forward your pecu-
liar measure to successful issue.
