Attendance from 10 to 5 IMPORTANT NOTICE. Mr. Afogelyi Dentist, begs to direct attention to a New and Patented improvement in the manufacture of Artificial Teeth, Palates, &c., which supersedes all impure Metals and soft or absorbing agents, hitherto the fruitful cause of so many evils to the mouth and gums. A portion of this great improvement consists of a gum-colored enamelled base for the Artificial Teeth, which presents a uniformly smooth and highly polished surface, preventing any lodg- ment of food between interstices, thus avoiding the con. sequent unpleasant, secretions, causing: foulness ot breath, &c. Additional Teeth can be added when required (thus saving great expense to the Patient) without extracting roots or fangs, and as the whole is moulded in a soft state, all inequalities of the gums or roots of teeth are care- fully protected, and insures a perfect system of painless Dentistry. Neither metals, wires, or unsightly ligatures are required, but a perfectly complete adhesion secured by Mr. MOSELY'S PATENTED SUCTION PALATE, No. 764, Aug. 1855. *#*Decayed and Tender Teeth permanently restored to Use, preventing the necessity of Extraction. Constant Attendance at Town Residence, No. 30, Berners-street, Oxford-street, Vt., where Patients and let- ters will meet with immediate attention. Consultations and every information, Free.

The 2-Furrow.Wheel LAND PRESSER is getting much in use in modern agriculture, in consequence of the many advantages it has over the 6 or more Furrow Wheel Pressers. It can be used with One Horse, to follow in the same field 2 plough teams, thereby pressing the furrows before they are made hard and brittle by the atmosphere. Being only 2 furrow wheels, the impression is uni- form on the furrows. These advantages cannot, with the other pressers, be obtained. The furrows being ploughed some time become hard-3 or 4 horses are required; and in consequence of their having so many wheels, the pressure on the furrows is unequal. Two and three wheel Land Pressers have been, and are now realising (the framing all iron) £ 7 and £9 each; those part Wood and part Iron, are made at £3 10s. each and are of equal utility.
