MINERAL TERRA METALLIC ^; For Filling Decayed Teeth , witliout Heat , Pain , or Pressure ; and Incorrodible Mineral Teeth fixed without giving the least Pain , or shewing any fastening whatever . LEEDS AND BRADFORD . MR . ESKELL , SURGEON DENTIST , OE 3 N 0 . 12 J , PAEK-E 0 ¥ , LEEDS , "D ESPECTFULLY announces that he is on a Professional Vint to Bradford , and for the better Xv Accommodation of his Friends , has made Arrangements to attend those Places , and may be consulted ™ all the Branches of DENTAL SURGERY as follows , until further Notice : — Every Wednesday and Thursday , at Mrs . Brigg ' s , Well-Street , Bradford ; a / id every Monday , Tuesday , Friday and \ Saturday , at his Residence , 12 £ , Park-Rowy Leeds . INCORRODIBLE MINERAL TEETH , From One to a complete Set , whicn are not only Indestructible , but also Incapable of Discolouration . Amongst the advantages of Mr . Eskell's System , one of the principal is , that it confers the powers of the most distinct Articulation , and submits this as really an advantage of the utmost importance , but when to it is added the capability of biting the hardest substance , without pain , though last , not least , that it gives the appearance of juvenility to countenances otherwise of an aged appearance . Mr . Eskell wishes to impress upon the Ladies and Gentlemen not to have the least prejudice against his Artificial Teeth , for they are both useful and ornamental ; bis principle is quite different from any other , it conduces to both beauty and comfort . A new Description of Mineral Teeth that closely resembles nature ; these Mineral Teeth eminently possess every superiority that can be desired over the various substances offered to the public for similar purposes ; their colour is unchangeable , and they may be had in every gradation of shade , to suit any that may be remaining in the mouth . In point of economy the Mineral Teeth will be found highly advantageous to the wearer , as in durability . Mr . Eskell avails himself of this opportunity to explain the various species of Disease to which the mouth is liable , according to the principles laid down by the -most" eip-ntit mc-d / ca men , convinced that so important a condition as persona , appearance cannot . fail of being interesting . Scaling the Teeth . — -This operation when performed by a skilful Dentist , causes not the least pain , and is effected in order to preserve the Teeth from tartared effluvia , to keep them pure and white , and to free the breath from any displeasant odour ; this Operation should take place occasionally . Cauterizing the Teeth . —The operation is had recourse to upon the first symptoms of decay , in order to arrest the progress of disease , and which , provided it be done in due time , prevents that acute pain followed by ultimate extraction .. . . Filling the Vacuum of Decayed Teeth . —This process , simple in itself and easy to endure , preserves the enamel ofthe Teeth in their primitive state , and entirely prevents any portion of ailment or foul air from entering the cavities—the general source of offensive effluvia . Separating of the Teeth . —The Teeth , from want of proper attention , are apt in most persons to close and connect themselves with each other , which is generally the chief cause of decay ; in such cases it is particularly advisable to separate them . Great care is required in this operation . " v ¦ . ' Fastening Loose Teeth . —Mr . E . during his course of study has adopted a mode of fastening loose Teeth , particularly of aged persons , whether arising from neglect or any other cause j which he is happy to say , has proved successful . to the full extent of his expectations . . Regulating the Teeth . —It is well known that Teeth will often grow too long , and outstretch each other , sometimes obtruding themselves beyond the bounds prescribed by the circular formation of the mouth : under such circumstances they require regulatine , which greatly adds to the agreeable appearance ofthe countenance , in the laugh , . and gives facility to the articulation . The beauties of a well-regulated set of Teeth are so generally acknowledged and admired , that to offer further observatLn On this head would be superfluous . Fixing one or more Teeth . —The method adopted in this process of replacing Teeth , renders it impossible to discern the artificial from the natural , without wire spring or showing any fastening whatever . ' ¦ ¦' ¦ .: Extraction ofthe Rooter the Fungs of the Teeth . —Although this operation is often dreaded by the afflicted , from the facility which characterizes the performance of hi » operation , Mr . E . has been most successful in removing all fearful apprehensions . Fixing complete Sets of Teeth . —Complete sets by the assistance ef a new invented spring , which gperates with the action ofthe jaws , in mastication , &e . will be found , in every respect amply competent , to supply the place of their predecessors . ; Atteiidance fram Ten till Four , at his residence , 12 j , Park Row , every Monday ^ Tuesday , Friday and Saturday .

In consequence of numerous applications continually received from Bradford and the Neighbourhood , one of the Proprietors of Dr . Henry's French Meroine Pills , will attend every Wednesday and Thursday , at No . A , George Street , facing East Brook Chapel , Bradford . A TREATISE IS JUST PUBLISHED ON THE VENEREAL & SYPHILITIC DISEASES , AND GIVEN WITH EACH BOX OE DR . HENRYS FRENCH MER 0 X 14 E PItX # v _ piONTAINING plain and practical directions for the effectual cure of all degrees of the above 6 om-\ J plaints—with observations on seminal weakness arising from early abuses , and the deplorable consequences resulting from the use of mercury , the whole intended for the instruction of general readers , that all persons can obtain an immediate cure with secrecy and safety . Prepared and sold by the sole Proprietor , at No . 74 , Cobourg Street , Six Doors from Brunswick Chapel , Leeds . In Boxes , 2 sV 9 d . and 4 s . 6 d . each . With each Box is given directions how to take these Pills , observations on points beneficial to the patient , being hints worth knowing by those who are , or have been , sufferers from this dreadful and devastating malady . That cruel disease which has destroyed se many thousands is now unhappily so well known that a recital of its effects ii quite unnecessary , its malignant influence extending by inheritance from family to family , and when the great Doctor Henry became professor to the University , he conferred an invaluable benefit upon nurekind by the discovery of his grand panacea for the cure of this deplorable complaint . The certainty with which the Pills are continually administered can be attested by many thousands who are annually cured by them . What medicime can be more appropriate than that which-has given such general satisfaction ? The French PilUroot out every particle of the insidious poison , purifying in their progress the whole mass of fluids . They not only remove the disease but they renovate by their action the different functions of the body—expelling the grosser humour , and in a manner so imperceptible as to convince the most sceptical of their astonishing and unequalled powers . They neither Contain mercury nor any other mineral , and may be taken without the slightest suspicion of discovery ; they require no restraint of diet , loss of time , or hindrance of business , but effect ' -a complete cure without the least exposure to the patient . At any period whe » the slightest suspicion may exist it will be well to have recourse to the French Pills ; for when taken before the disease has made its appearance they act as a certain preventive removing the complaint effectuall y and secretly . The deplorable state in which many persons have been when visiting the Doctor ( from the u « e of mercury ) renders it imperatively necessary to caution the public against that dangerous mineral when injudiciously administered . . ^ The Doctor , after an extensive practice of Thirty Years , has rendered his counsel an object of the utmost consequence to all who are lnboming under hereditary or deep seated maladies ; to those trtubledwith seminal weakness , hit advice will be invaluable ; hundred * have owned hU skill in these- comptaiiiits To the youth of both sexes , whether lured from health by the promptings of passion , or the dfclttmonrof inexperience , his advice is superior ; in his practice be unites a mild gentleness of treatment , andpossessihg so thorough a knowledge of his art , the most deplorable cases afford no resistance to his skill ; His extensive practice has rendered him the depositary of many distressing secrets which are kept with unblemished faith and honour ; to persons so afflicted , it 8 highly necessary to observe that ah early application is of tie greatest importance , and that " with such a praetitiooer any Hesitation in disclosihg their disorder , must amount to a delicacy as dertnictive * as it is false and Tinnecegsary . To the neglect of snen attention are attributable many of those hapless instance 9 j which , while they excite the commiseration of the beholder should alm > impress him with tte fear' of * elf-reproaoh . T-o all such , then , we address ourselves offering hope-Henergy—muscular strength—felicity ; nor ought our advances to appear questionable , sanctioned as tiey are ^ the mul tiplied proofo of thirty years * guooessful experience .

On th ^ following Sunday evening another lecture was delivered by Mr . Barker , from Sheffield ^ in the same place . The utmost good order prevailed during both lectures , although the large room , in which the lectures were delivered ; was crowded to excess , especially oh Siindajr nighj ; , several . persons being obliged to go away , nptbeihg ' able to gain ; admittance ; - Robbery . — -On Friday night week , four men entered the Black
Horse Inn , JKeighley , and called for some liquor ^ stating that they had been begging at a fair a short distance from that town . While one of the party was amusing the-landlady vrith an account of their begging exploits , the other three slipped into an adjoining , room , andjpacked up every thing which they could carry off , viz . j wearing apparel to a large amount . - They then departed , leaving the . unsuspeetinjg landlady to ruminate on what she had heard ; On the ssune night an attempt was made to enter the dwelling of Isaac Sharp , beer retailerj Low Bridge , by forcing " open the ^ casement .

A Distressed Case—Excellent Worjcing of the New Poor Law . —Mary Clark , a poor woman apparently in the deepest distress was brought up at the Court House , charged by Mrs . Walton j a respectable female who gave her evidence with great reluctance , with having abstracted a large quantity of property of the value of £ 3 . from a parcel which Mrsy W . had given to her husband to convey to London . The goods which consisted of fancy worsted shawls and other articles , had beep , pawnedby the prisoner at the shops of Mr . Law } and Mr . Harrison ; in Sykes-street , and was identified by the complainant . The prisoner did not deny the charge , but said she did not mean to keep
them ; she had done the deed from actual want ,: she had three children and was expecting money from her husband who is in the oil trade but had hot got it . Her youngest child was eighteen months old * Mr . Parker said it was a mbst distressing case , but they would take it under the pawnbroker ' s act , and aUhough she must go to jmsoh yet the Magistrates would not forget the feelings of men ; he saw her situation arid therefore he should not send her to the treadmill , and as it might be proper to release her before her confinement , the sentence of the court
was that for each offence she should be committed to the gaol for any time not exceeding a month . Mr : and Mrs . Walton ; seemed desirous that mercj-. should be extended as far as the Magistrates might think proper , and Mr . Wood , one of the reporters , also addressed the bench , and said that he had seen the prisoner some time since coming from the Sculcoates Workhouse , and inquired how things wenton under the new law . She told him Very badly , that she was m actual want , and had three children , and the guardians Of the union would only allow her for the week two loaves .
Hull Temperance FESTiVAL .- ^ On Monday week , the Temperance anniversary commenced in the Boy's School-room , Salthouse-lahe , John Wade , Esq ., president , took the chair , and in a neat and . eloquent speech opened the business of the meeting , pointing out in a very pleasing and forcible manner the advantages likely to arise from the diffusion of total abstinence ; principlesi Mr . Firth then read the report , by which it appeared , that the prospects of the society were of the most cheerinocharacter ; the weekly meetings continued to be . well attended , drunkards were rectaimedthe cdmfort of
, families was promoted , and two or threeT branch societies had been formed , oneof which at Barton , in the short space of twenty weeks , numbered 350 members . Societies had also been established at Barrow and Brigg , and the cause was . spreading in every direction . Several reclaimed characters addressed the meeting ; and also Mr . Kempstoh , from Burj ' , whose address gave the most entire satisfaction to the friends , assembled , and the harmshy of the evening would have been perfect , had it not here been interrupted by the violent and scandalous behaviour of one individual . Juvt as the chairman
was about to vacate the chair , Mr . J . W . Duval , an expelled member of the Association , rose and requested the president to read to the society , a letter which he had previously handed to him , Jhis request . he refused to comply with , on the ground that the meeting was not intended for discussion , and requested him not to interrupt the proceedings ¦ to this however ; Mr . Duval , paid no regard , but continued pertinaciously to address the chair , and it was found necessary to order his removal ; upon this a scene of confusion ensued , which defies description . The audience were divided into two uneoual nartip * -
the larger bent upon supporting the authority of the chair , and the smaller equally bent uponforcingMr . Duval upon the attention of the meeting . Life und property was in imminent peril , but at length a number of the police were called in . and the worthy cause of the disturbance ^ after chasing i ^ p and down the room , was given ih charge , and conveyed to the station-house . On the following morning the affair underwent a long investigation before the magistrates , and hosts of witnesses appeared on both sides . Mr . puval commenced a long story about his private grievances ,, which the Mayor cut Bhort , by telling him that they had nothing to do with the case , he then called witnesses -who
were to prove that he was not the cause of the commotion ; Mr . ,. "W . Armstrong , Quaker .: Mr . Martin , dancing master , and Whiteheadj Methodist local preacher , appeared . for the defendant , but their evidence did not touch the case at all ; The Mayor said it was clear that his conduct had been most improperj but as the society only wished for protec-Ijoh ;; jf he would Snake ah apology , and promise hot to cohduct himself in an improper manner in future , himself , and his brother magistratesi would be satisfied . This he ; refused to do , and his worship said then he must be bound over to keep the peace . A consultation then took place on the bench , as to the amountthe result
, of which / . was ; that Mr ; Duval was required to be bound over to keep -the peace \ for the space of twelve months , himself in £ 20 . > and two sureties in £ 10 . each . Mr . Burton druggist , and Mr . Proctor , bookbinder , offered themselves as sureties , and were accepted , the r « 6 ult when it became known in the town , appeared to give general satisfaction , and in the eyeninK the ™ ° ^ WV * crowded . Mr ; Grubb , ; theageiitdf the New British Association , gave an animated ad : dress , which was listened to with profound attention Several reformed drunkards also detailed the benefits they . had derived from total abstinence , and the company separated in higbriee and eenain * v * nA
humour . Several signed the pledge . ph Wednesday and Thursday evenings , public addresses were again delivered by Mr . Grubb , whose eloqufchce fwas greeted by frequent and long continued cheerine During thejday , on Wednesday ,: Mr . Diival appliS to the sitfang magistrates for summonses against two members of-the Temperance Society ^ named Wells and Johnson ^ for an \ assault alleged to have been committed upon Win . oh the pfecedih g evehirig ; at the meeting . Summonses were granted , and the case wras heard oh : Thursday . Several fitnesses wereexamined ; from whosetestimohy it appeared that Wells and Johnson had been desired to remove Mr . Duval from the room ; after his conducthad rehdered his longer remaining there ah unbearable nuisance .
ana that Wella had accordingly attempted toreinove hini , but without tising any violence , while Johnson munediately -went out in search ; of a policeman . The books of the society containing the rules for ordering and conducting their meetings were put in and ^ rjpad , . andrit was shewn that Mr .: Duval hating been mice A , member , though sometime since expelled ^ must have known that he was acting contrary to those riilesy and therefore disturbing and insulting the meeting .

Reflections on the New Poor Law ;—Overseers of the poor , I present the following lines , to your notice , as a monitor ^ hoping at the same time they are worthy your attention . I am a young man ,. residing in the city of Ripon , born of pow but honest parents , who have hitherto earned a livelihood by the dint of their industry and hand > labour ; "M y parents reside a few miles west of Rippn , and as I am at liberty every Sabbath day I mostly pay them a visit . , According to ; my usual practice ^ visited them ; last week , and found tbeia labouring under apprehensions of an unpleasant nature , inconceivable except by those who may % under the influence
ofthe same ideas ., I found thek commenting on ; the New -Poor Law ; and calling to mind that , " after a long ,- tedious , and laborious life , —after having paid : all the demands of their country which Government mi ght impose upon them during war and peace—all assessed taxes up to the present date for the support of their country aia its interests , and to preserve their property , the painful earnings of their industry , their offspring , parents and connexions , andfaniily ties , their beriefactors , which thirty or forty years' correspondence have rendered dear to them ; from the ruffian hand of the enemy , which sought the universal destruction of our friiitfol island ^—after having ^^ supported and defended the church and ; estate from the foul attacks of the on .
pressor s tj-ranny , and ; done the utmost in- their power for the good and welfare of the kingdom in general , to be , when ; they shall become ho longei able to defend themselves , or rise iia their country ' s support , when hoary age shall clothe their temples With grey hairs , torn . from their famih '^ s and cot nexiohs which time bas rendered dear to'ihem , aid forced into a place I blush to name , and far from social humanity , which shudders at the very thought of it . " How inconsolable must be the idea to thoa whose circuinstances place them tinder the care of this system , ' Now I would ask if this"be the honoji conferred by pur free constitution upon old age ? Is this the happiness to be enjoyed when life draw ^ near to . a clpse ? , Is this the boon to be conferred
upon the hardy sons of toil ? Shame , shahiei I » English ; ministers ,..-will ye suffer this breachi .

The honourable chairman , who , for a long series of time ; had been the stead ; mend of the deceased , eulogised his memory and his merits in thatsimple strain ¦ •' of unaffected ^ eloquence which at once bespoke ^ his ^ own sincerity and their truthfulness as it reigarded the object of his remarks . He contrasted Mr . Cobbett ' s consistent adherence to the interests of the . labouring classes with the
late acts of a , person . who atone time Calledhimself " their Attorneyigeneral . " VHedid not Wish to speak harshly of Mr . O'CpnnelV bothe thought that gentleman had not acted cohsistenily in his public professions ; Mr . Fielden dwelt at great length , and lnnointed bitterness , upon the conduct of the Wife whom he charged with frittering away the liberties of the people--declared that their ahjiwas despotiab and that he was looking with' eagerness and satisfachon to their speedy downfall ; The sentiments ¦ pf -Mr , Eielden ppon this and other subjects w « rapturously received b y the meeting .
