BIRTHDAY or THOMAS JEFFERSON

Thomas jefferson was born on the I'd day
Of April, l743, old style, corresponding to
the 18th day of April, new style. On the
18th instant, therefore, the one hundred and
sixteenth birthday of Jefferson was cclebra-
ted by the Republicans, at Boston, and also
at Washington City, with appropriate honors.
At the National Capital (on the Virginia
side of the Potomac, however, a salute was
fired, in honor Of jefferson and the recent
Republican victories There was special pro-
prety in this remembrance Of Jefferson by
the Republicans and there would have been
gross improperly, had modern Democrats of
the Slayocratic school done anything of the
sort BY way Of proof we cite the following

ted States, page SO. 1t would not do, of

AN ELEGANT DENTAL EsTABLIsHMENT.-
If our readers would obtain an idea Of the
great extent Of business in the Dental profess
sion, in this city, we advise them to visit the
extensive rooms of Drs. Cummings and Flagg,
No. % fremont street. embracing seven apart
ments devoted expressly to dental practice.
Having just reftted and reiurnished their
rooms they now present the most elegant and
tastlul appearance, surprising in extent, COM
fort and convenience, any similar establish
ment in this country The beautiful speci-
mems Of artificial teeth single. whole sets.
and parts of sets, attract especial attention,
and challenge the admiration, not more of the
general observer than the strictly scientific,
who can fully appreciate their perfect accuracy
and beauty. We have often seen commenda-
tory notices of their work, but have never
observed the least exaggeration, and not one
statement in reference to its excellence which
we would not cheeriully endorse, from per-
sonal knowledge. The Medals and Diplomas
awarded at various times alone place them at
the head of their profession; but to appreci-
ate the skill and superior workmanship of the
very gentlemanly conductors of this extensive
establishment, the public should call and ex-
anime for themselves. We are sure that as
their work challenges the admiration of all,
so their dental operations are most scientific
and skilful-Boston larveVer, Apr 10.
