TIIE DAILY - EVENING 6TKLEGRAPII. PIIILADELi'HIA, SATURDAY. JULY 28,- 1866. wruoolb and Triumph. When I first Intro uoed tlie Nitrous Oxide Gas to the dental pro ton at New York, In 1863, It was a long tima etfore the public and the profession were con inced that we could actually extract teeth eUiout pain. But the new agent gained friends lally, and at the present wrltlnff we have ex- ractod teeth for 14,1?6 patient, without the Urst failure or unpleasant effects from the gas, nor has any one said that ho would have teeth drawn In any other way. All of these have signed our scroll, certifying that their teeth have been drawn without pain, or BDy unplea sant effects from the pus. In Philadelphia we have entractod teeth since the 12th of October last, for two thousand seven hundred andfortyflot patients, with the same result In every case as In New York. ' By employing the best dental skill for extract ing (1 pay one man lor extracting $50 per week;, and excreting great care to extract no teeth that can and ought to be saved by filling, we have removed all opposition to the gas, and nearly half bur business now comes from patients sent to us by the medical and dental professions. All our patients have added their names to a scroll certifying that their teeth were drawn without pain. We Invite the public to call and see the list. Opposite their names they have written sentences like the following: "Very good,". "A perfect mirae'e," "Never knew it." "Js it possible?" "Ao pain toftafeter." "A painful real'ty dispelW by a pleasant dream." "Had a sweet dream: could not believe they vere out." ( One great advantage of the gas is, that It is entirely harmless, and can be breathed by the most delicate, nervous, and feeble patients without injury. Dr. Thomas, formerly of New Yoik. who is to do the extracting for the future, is one of the most careful and successful opera tors in the prolesnion, as all will testify who iave been under his care. Dentists and mem bers of the medical profession having patients desirous of having teeth extracted, are invited to call and witness operations. G. Q. Colton, No. 737 Walnut street, Philadelphia.

The execution oi George V. Chase lor tho murder ot Joseph K. Clark took place to-day at Joliot, in the county jail of Will county, Illinois, in ihe presence of the sheriff, jury, and a lew spectators permitted to be present by tbe statutes of our State. 1 be murder was committed within the penitentiary of this State, located at Joliet, aud the murdered man, Clark, was a Deputy Warden ol tbat institu tion. Chase was there serving out a sentence for larceny committed at Chicago. For Borne violation ol prison oisoiplme Clark called him from his cell, when Chase sprang towards him aud struck him a terriblo b.ow upon the left temple with a stone Vthicb. he had previously concealed in his cell. Tbe blow fractured the skull, aud Claik diod Irointbe wound alter lingering. . for some days in great sufluiiug. Upon the trial the defense was insanity, a very common defense in Illinois murder trials, and the plea was ably and loroibly urged by his counsel, but it irovtdel no avail, and he was con vie tea. After conviction the case weni to the Supremo Court, and the Judgment vtas confirmed. Chase was man oi about five leei seven inches iu holgut, of strong and muscular build, lixht comolexion, sandy balr, blue eyes, and with a very malign and vicious expression oicountenance. For some time previous to his execution, under the teachings of his spiritual advisers, he baJ pro fessed to have experienced a change of heart, and pretended to have become deeply religious, aud pressed supreme tatisiaotion with the manner or, his teing taken off, as he was confident it would sd'urd him an immediate passport to the better world. - At a quarter to 1 o'o ock Chase, having partaken of the sacrament, was brought out of his cell, lie displayed 110 unusual teeiiug, but looked around with a brutal, Hoi id air. Tbe throud aud csu were ad justed by the hherifT, and his arms w pinioned. Trayer was tben otlerod by tbe atteudin clergy man, during which Chase looked wth a fixed aod apparently unconcerned stare at the floor ol the gal lows, which was arranged with the drop weight in stead ot the customary trap. This was the first execution ever had in Will I county, and was espi 0 ally important Iroin its ex pi ctd effect upon the prison discipline ot the State. I pou being asked ll be had auy remarks to make, Chase said ' None to my knowledge. 1 don't think 1 am gnii,ty of the crime you charge mo with. I don't lee any proof that 1 murdered the man. I don't see that 1 am guilty. 1 think 1 have as good aa explanation of that as you bave." When his lianas wero being pinioned, he said "You don't seem to appreciate a man's feelings, when you tie m to tight." ' . . ' . . V ben the cap was being drawn down over his face he said : "I am nut ready for that vet. I was as in nocent as anr of them. 1 was as innocent a any man in ths Culled States. 1 admit that banging is iustice. Isurposeit Is; but hanging for a thing a man isn't guilty of. and can't prove I'm guilty 01. Is HuoiLer thing, and Isn't Justice." 1 he Sheriff asked him if ue was ready, to which he refilled, "Keadv, sir." . , At balf-paut one the drop fell, and the miserable man had expiated, as tar as earth was concerned, bit terrible deed. U is death was very easy, kis neck being instantly broken. After hanging a tew mluutos be was takea down, and the attending pby sloians pronouuped lite extinct. AMERICAN GUM PAINT. ECONOMY IN PAINT.
