s .--v-.. E1ORMERLY of New Orleans, late of SS@~S M Memphis respectfully inform
 t-' his friends and the public, that he will be in Little Rock some 3 or weeks and can be found at Mrs Hoopcrs, where he will be prepared to perform all Dental operations.
 He would ask the particular attention of all those who need ftifciaI teeh he is prepared to insert whole sets by at0ospheric paesSure. with artificial gums where they may be required, thus doing away with all Springs, Clasps, etc. which generally render the use of artificial teeth unpleasant.
 In order to satisfy the public of my entire conf denee in this practice any responsible person can test this plan at my eroenSe, if 1t does not up to my statement.
 Also persons who have partial sets of teeth, and suffering with senstiveness from the teeth to which the hands clasps attached, can be relieved and the plate made comfortable, etc. He would also call the attention to the preservation of the teeth and diseases of the alveol'ar process.
 It will at all times afford him pleasure to give in structions how to preserve the Teeth, Gums, etc. All operations performed by special appointment. s& J. BORDLEY. ALatle RocE, Jan. s, 1S56 If. fS In presenting you my card. permit me to present you with the following remarks
 How strange 1t Is that persons negligent about their teeth; indeed thousands seem hardly to think about them except when they are troubled with the tooth ache. Even the ancients gave much attention Co their teeth considered it a religious duty, and ap roprated from two hours daily to their atten to. In their pOetical works the lOver enuineratng the charms of his mistress, failed to notice, as principal attraction, the whiteness and regularity of her teeth.
 "The Cunda blossom yields
 To the wilderness of the teeth;
 Speak but mild word. and the Rays of thy sparkling teeth,
 Will dispel the gloom of my fears"
 Most individuals seldom consider the importance oi their teeth regards their usefulness beauty, until they have been lost, or incurably destroyed. My '' DENTAL FAMILY CoMPANIoN.n giving some short rules for the preservation of the teeth: also the effects of diseased teeth and gums etc., with other remarks, can be had by calling at my room.

G- The St. Louis Evening News, noticing the election of the Rev. Henry Clay Dean, of Iowa, to the chaplaincy of the U. S. Senate says:
 But few years ago MT. Dean was common school scholar in q country school in McClel- landtown, Fayette county, Pa. His wit and talent appeared conspicuous among hls fellow scholars, but he has reached distinction far beyond what was looked for by his best friends at that time.

 "He was good egg"
 The recorder at once proceeded to gid gold by composing the following addition:
 Tread lightly OCT this nest we beg,
 Or else, perhaps, you'll smash the egg"
