" - - •' " ' '¦ ¦ ¦ : ¦ That cruel disease which has destroyed se many thousands is now unhappily so well known that a recital of its effects is quite unnecessary , its mah ' gnant influence extending by inheritance from family to iMnily , and when the great Doctor Henry became professor to the University , he conferred an invaluable benefit upon mankind b y the discovery of his grand panacea for the cure of this deplorable complaint Ihe certainty with which the Piffifare ^ continually administered can be attested by many thousands who are annually cured by them . What mediciHe can be more appropriate than that which has given such general satisfaction ? The French Pills root out every particle of the insidious poison , purifying in their P ° I ^^ wllole mas 8 offlmds # They not only remove the disease but they renovate by their action the different functionsof the body—expeUingthe grosser humour , and in a manner so imperceptible as to convince the most sceptical of their astonishing arid unequalled powers . They neither contain mercury nor any otter 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 anypmod when the sfightegt isuspicion may exist if will be well to have recourse to the French Pms ; for when taken before -the disease has made its appearance they act as a certain preventive removing the complaint efiectoally and geeretly . j The deplorable state in which many personB nave been when" visitir ig ^ theDoctortfromiieuse of mercury ) renders it imperatively necessary to caution the public against that dangerous mineral when injudiciously administered .

MIKEEAL TERRA METALLIC , For Filling Decayed Teeth , without Heat Pain , or Pressure ; and Incorrodible Mineral Teeth , fixed without giving tJie least Pain , or shewing any fastening whatever . LEEDS AND BRADFORD . me . eskell ; SUSGEON DENTIST , i ^ 0 E M ) . 121 , PABK-R 0 W , LEEDS , "DESPECTFULLY announces that he . is on a Professional Vint to Bradford , and for the better S \ j AccommoJation of his Friends , ha 3 made Arrangements to attend those Places , and may be Consulted in all the Branches of DENTAL SURGERY as follows , until further Notice : — Every Wednesday and Thursday , at 3 Irs . JBrigg ' s , Well-Street , Bradford ; and evoy Monday , Tuesday , Friday and Saturday , at his Residence , 12 £ , Park-Row , Leeds . INCOB . KOJHBLE 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 ; his principle is quite different from any other , it conduces to both beauty and comfort . : A new Descript ion of Mineral Teeth that closely resembles nature ; these Mineral Teeth eminentl y possess every superiority that can be desired over the various substances ou ' ered to the public for similar purposes ; their colour is unchangeable , and they may be had in every gradation of shade , to suit ruiy that may be remaining in the mouth . In point of economy . the Mineral Teeth will be found higbly 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 emnnt med ca men , convinced that so important a condition as persona » appearance cannot fail oi ' -being interesting . . Scaling ihe Teeth . —This operation when performed by a skilful Dentist , causes not the least pain , and is effected in erder to preserve the Teeth from tartared effluvia , to keep them pure and white , and to free the breath from any displeasantodour ; 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 of the Teeth in their primitive state , and entirely prevents any portion of ailment or foul air from entering the cavities—the general source of offensiye effluvia . Separating of the Teeth . —The Teeth , from want of proper attention , are apt in most persons to close and connect themselTes 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 . 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 , 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 obtrading themselves beyond the bounds prescribed by the circular formation of the mouth : under such circumstances they require regulatine , which greatly adds to the agreeable appeararice of the countenance , in thelamghj 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 observation 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 natoral , without wire spring or showing any fastening whatever . Extraction of the Root or the Fengs of the 2 Ve / A . —Although this operation is often dreaded by the afflicted , from the facility which characterizes the performance of his 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 operates with the action of the jaws , in mastication , &c . will be found , in every respect amply coinpetent to supply the place of their predecessors . ^ : Attendance from Ten till Four , at his residence , 12 £ , Park Rote , every Monday , Tuesday } Friday and Saturday .

. „ . , , , "Dear Siry- ^ -The Canada war , as I told you before , is not yet ended ; although now all looks dark to us who know but very littl& of their operations But the patriots seem to feel a greater confidence in the result . They are still inthisjlace and Sandusky city in considerable numbers ; General M'Leod has been in the neighbourhood about a week ; his men are some at Sandusky city , soirie at Port Clinton , in Sandusky county ; and , I am told , some have proceeded as far as point andPlait Island ; The balance are onl y waiting for their army to follow . Their desigu . is , then to make a descent upon the main laud from the island . Their force will be from 500 to 800 strong when all congregated on the island .
" General Van Rensselaer is riot expected to join them until they meet him on the Canadian frontier . From this I am led to believe that the general will endeavour to make a descent from some other quarter . This now is intended . General Van Renselaer lias gone up ; this is certain . What else could he have gone ; up tor ? That" Dunconib ' has quite a force somewhere in the north-western section of the Upper Province is also quite certain . Be that as it may , Van Rensselaer has g-dne up , and some four or five hundred ; of his . men with him ; arid they will most likely go as far as Detroit , or perhaps farther ; -and it is most likely that General Vau Ilensselaer and General M'fceod will consolidate
their forces in . the enemy ' s- camp ; and before you receive this letter , M'Leod , with the whole of ' his force , will be on the Canadian shore , arid Rensselaer Will be so situated as to cooperate with liimK ' Lower Canada . —Everything was quiet at Montreal on the 19 th . The examination of the prisoners in jail was still going on . Four were discharged on Saturday , and a considerable number had been previously released .

He learn Irom undoubted authority that the patriots who have been straggling along the lake shore since the abandonment of Navy Island , and dispersion at Buffalo , have reached this frontier , and are now m the . vicinity of Gibraltar . Their place ot destination is not known , but it is conjectured that they contemplate another attack upon the Canadian frontier , somewhere between this city- and Maldon . We are told that General Van Rerisselaer was at Monroe yesterday . ¦ ' Of course muqh alarm exists on the other side ; " There are at Maiden between 4 arid 500 regular British troops , and orders have-been issued for the return of the - inilitia , which had been disbanded .
Buncombe and Sutherland are in the vicinity of this place . ¦ ..,.. ' ( Correspondence of the Neiy : York Bail !/ Express ) Ihe citizens of Detroit arid hereabouts have- been disappointed , in supposing the Canadian troubles at an end m this vicinity . The dispersion of the Patriot army which had occupied Bois Blanc Isle , hear JDetroit , seems to be a mere prelude for more vigorous exertion . News that can be relied on has reached tins place that the entire army which occupied Navy Island is within two or three days ' march of Detroit , and that they intend crossing at Gibraltar , a p oint nearly twenty miles below here , at which . place the former party embarked for the Bnush island which . they becmried
for ; several days . How , this second affair will terminate no one is able to conjecture . Some think however , that the Patriots will be able to baffle the exertions of the United States officers , by crossing I- ^ L ??
