session.
Hxadqitabtsbs Abut of the Potomac ,
December 11—9 A. M.
Everything last sight was in a bustle and activity,
at t<MUj was the time fixed on for crossing the
river.
During the night the pontoons were conveyed to
the river, and the artillery of 143 pleoes were placed
In position opposite the city.
At 3 o’clock this morning the rebels fired two sig
nal guns, while during the latter part of the night
rockets were frequently seen within their lines.
At 6 o’clock tne construction of three bridges in
front of the city was oommenced. When about half
completed the enemy opened a murderous fire of in
fantry from the houses on the river bank. Up to
this time not a shot had been fired from onr side.—
The engineers were driven from the pontoon bridges
and everal killed and wounded.
At 6 o’clock Gen. Burnside ordered all the guns
opened on the city.
The cannonade, which has continued without in
terruption up to the present time, is terrible.
The city is on fire, and its destruction appears to
be certain.
The enemy, about 7 o’clook, opened with their
heavy gans from their works, bat so far have done
no serious injury.
General Franklin constructed his bridges about
three miles below the city, meeting with but slight
opposition. His troops are now crossing.
The gunboats are now shelling the enemy, about
fifteen miles down the river, where they have been
concentrating their forces during the past two dyas.
The concentrated fire of our batteries on the city
has had the effeot of driving back the enemy’s in
fantry, and the work on the bridges has again been
commenced.
The troops are all under arms, near the river, pre
paring to march over as soon as the bridges are com
pleted.
Later from Headquarters.
Thursday Noon. —On the attempt being made
to finish the bridges, in front of the city, the rebel
infantry again opened their fire.
Our artillery iu position, fire was again opened on
the city ; the result being that it was fired in several
new places.
The enemy have used very little artillery up to
this time, as it would endanger their own men, who
are holdiDg the river front.
General Burnside has just issued an order to con
centrate every available gun upon the city, under
oover of the fire of which it is believed that the
bridges can be finished.
The killed aDd wounded, so far, do not amount to
more than fifty men', f " •
Headquarters, December 11 —Evening.
But little firing took place between one and three
o’clock, during which time all the available batter
ies were placed in position, which then numbered
one hundred and seventy-six guns. At a given sig
nal all the batteries opened on Fredericksburg.—
The fire, was terrible, but the rebel sharpshooters
could not be driven from their hidiug-plaoes. The
shot and shell went crashing through the houses, in
many cases setting them on fire, causing a dense
smoke to gather, which, with the explosion of so
large a quantity of powder almost hid the city
from view.
It soon became evident that the bridges could not
be built except by a bold dash. V olunteers were
called for to cross the river in small boats. This
order was no sooner givetlAhan hundreds of brave
men stepped forward, but aIT could not go. About
one hundred were selected. These were soon on
their way, while the artillery threw a perfect storm
of iron hail on the opposite bank. They reached
the opposite shore, but not without loss. With
fixed bayonets they rushed upon the rebels, killing
several and taking one hundred and one prisoners,
who were safely landed on this sido.
At half past four o’clock two bridges were finished
opposite the oity, when the troop 3 immediately be
gan to cross over.
The enemy were soon driven from the city back to
their line of works.
The two bridges in front of General Franklin’s
Eosition were successfully laid early in the morning,
ut his troops did not cross until the two upper ones
were ready.
A sufficient force is now on the opposite side of
the river to resist any attack that is likely to be
made.
The rebels fired but few guns in the morning, and
none in tho afternoon, although their works were in
easy range. During the forenoon the rebels burnt
the railroad bridge just outside the city.
Between thirty and forty houses were burnt,
mostly in the business part of the city.
During the day between 8,000 and 9,000 rounds of
ammunition were fired by oar artillery.
Everything is quiet to-night. The indications are
that a battle will be fought to-morrow.

Headquarters Army of the Potomac,
\ Saturday Evening, Dec. 13, 1862.
The fog began to disappear at 11 o’clock this
morning, affording an unobstructed view of our own
and the enemy’s position ; it being ovident that the
first ridge of hills in the rear of the city, on which
the enemy bad his guns posted behind earthworks,
could not be carried, excgpt by a charge of infan
try.
General Sumner assigned that duty to General ;
French’s Division, supported by Goneral Howard’s. |
The troops advance to tho works at ten minutes j
before 12 o’clock, at a brisk run. The enemies guns
opened a rapid fire upon them —when within musket
range of the base of the ridge, they were met by a
terrible fire from the rebel infantry, who were posted
behind a stone wall; and some houses on the right
of the line. This checked their advance, and they
fell back to a small ravine, but not out of musket
range.
At this time another body of troops moved to their
assistance in splendid style, notwithstanding tbe
gaps made in their ranks by the fire of the rebel
artillery.
When they arrived at the first line, they advanced
on double quick time, and with the command of
“fixed bayonets,” endeavored to dislodge the rebels
from their biding places.
The concentrated fire of artillery and infantry,
'which they were forced to face, was too much, and
Che centre gave way in disorder; but were after
wards rallied and brought back.
From that time the fire was spiritedly continued,
and never ceased until some time after darkness set
in this eveniug.
Gen. Franklin who commenced the attack on the
left, met with better success. He succeeded after a
hard day’s fight in driving the enemy about one
mile.
At one time the rebels advanced to attack, but
they were handsomely repulsed with terrible slaugh
ter, and a loss of between four and five hundred
prisoners, belonging to Gen. A. P. Hill’s com
mand.
Gen. Franklin’s movement was directed down the !
river, and his troops are encamped to night, not far
from the Massapooix creek. Our troops sleep to
night, where they fought to-day.
The dead and wounded are being carried from the
field of battle to-night.
The following is a list of the officers killed and
wounded as far as known.
Gen. Jaokson of the Pennsylvania Reserves is
killed. Gen. Bayard was struck in the thigh by a
shell, and afterwards died. Gen. Vinton was
wounded in the side, but not seriously. Gen. Gib
boDS was wounded in th# hand. Gen Kimball re
ceived a wound in the thigh. Gen. Caldwell was
wounded in two places but not seriously. Col. Sin
olair of Penna. was dangerously wounded.
Capt. Hendrickson, commanding the 9th New York
Militia, was wounded severely.
The following is the loss of officers in the sth New
Hampshire Regiment, which was actually engaged
in the battle:
Col. Cross, wounded in the abdomen.
Maj. Sturdevant, and Adjutant Dodd, killed.
The firing of musketey ceased at about 6 o’olock,
but the rebels oontinued throwing shell into the oity
at 8 o’clock this evening.
The position of the Rebel forces was as follows :
Gen. Longstreet was on the left and held the main
works of the enemy. Gen. A. P. Hill and Gen.
Jackson were in front of Gen.'Franklin with Jack
son’s right resting on the Kappahanuock.
General D. H. Hill’s forces acted as a reserve.
The losses cannot be accurately estimated at this
hour.

St. Louis, Dec. 9.
Major-General Halleck, General-in-Chief, Washing

My forces of the army of the frontier united near
Fayetteville in the midst of a hard fought battle.
General Blunt had sustained his position at Cave
Hill until Saturday night, when the enemy, twenty
five thousand strong, under General Hindman, at

arrival of General Herron’B forces, which had been
approaching for four days by foroed marches.
On Sunday, about 10 a. u., the attacked
General Herron near Fayetteville, who, by gallant
and desperate fighting, held him in check for three
hours, until General Blunt’s division came up and
attacked him in the rear.
The fight continued desperately until dark.
Out troops then bivouacked on the battle-field,
while the enemy retreated across the Boston Moun

. Ten Thousand Barrels of Oil Lost.-A dis
patch received from Oil Creek, reports anoth
er calamity in that region, which is fast
becoming famous for its misfortunes. On
Sunday the creek was putting out ioe rapidly,
which gorged near the mouth, and resulted in
the destruction of about 10,000 barrels of crude
oil, valued at $lOO,OOO. Of this amount 4,000
barrels, valued at $40,000, belonged to Shreve,
Tilson & Co., the extensive shippers, who lost
heavily by the late pond freshets. Every day
only proves more conclusively the necessity
for a railroad from the principal oil producing
farms to the mouth of the creek. At a mod
erate calculation $225,000 worth of oil has
been destroyed there within the last three
weeks, all of which, had there been a railroad
b operation, might have been saved.
THIRTY-SEVENTH CONGREBS-BBCOND SESSION.
Mosdat, December 8.
PetitioDß were presented to the Senate to-day in
favor of a general bankrupt act. A memorial from
Gov. Morton, of Indiana, praying for. an increase in
the pay of onr common soldiers was referred to the
Committee on Military Affairs. On motion of Mr.
Wilson the Committee on Military Affairs were in
structed to inquire into the expediency of providing
by law for more effectually suppressing the rebellion
and securing tranquility in Maryland. Mr. Sum
ner offered a resolution} which was adopted, that the
Secretary of tarnish the Senate with the cor
respondence relating to the Army of the Potomao.
The bankrupt act was taken up, but was soon laid
aside and made the special order for the 18th instant.
Mr. Davis offered a joint resolution proposing certain
amendments to the Constitution to alter the mode of
electing the President and Vice-President, which
were ordered to bo printed. . n
In the House Messrs. Blake, Shanks, Noel, Casey,
and Haight were appointed a special committee to
investigate the charges against Kepresentative Ash
ley. On motion of Mr. Edwards it was resolved that
the Committee on Indian Affairs bo instructed to in

relation to the Indian funds held by the government,
and report by bill or otherwise. On motion of Mr.
Roscoe Conckling the President was requested, if in
his opinion it was not incompatible with the public
Interests, to transmit to the House the last official
report of Major General Buell. Mr. Stevens’ bill to
indemnify President Lincoln and other persons for
suspending the writ of habeas corpus , was ordered
to a second reading by a vote of 90 to 34, and after
a prolonged disoussion as to whether it should be
made the special order for Thursday, was finally
passed by a vote of 90 to 45. Mr. Wickliffe intro,
duced a bill to protect and grant relief and proteo
tion to the loyal States whose property and slaves
have been wrongfully taken, which was referred to
the Committee of the Judioiary. The House then
went into Committee of the Whole on the State of
the Union, and referred the various portions of the
President’s Message to appropriate committees. Mr.
Richardson made a speech animadverting upon the
, message, after which the committee rose and the
• House adjourned
A petition in favor of a general bankropt act was
offered to-day in the Senate by Mr. Sherman. Sec
retary Stanton, in a communication replying to the
resolution calling for information respecting the sale
of colored freemen captured by tbe rebels, stated
that no such information was in his possession. The
resolution’respectiog arbitrary arrests, offered by Mr.
Saulsbury, was taken up. Mr. Hale believed that
the writ of habeas corpus was alive yet, and was
unwilling for the Senate to interfere with other de
partments. Mr. Bayard said the President had as
serted the rightto suspend the writ of habeas corpus ,
and be thought it proper for the Senate to inquire
into tbe matter. Mr. Wilson thanked the President
for making arbitrary arrests. After considerable
discussion by several members, the question pending,
the Senate adjourned.
The House considered the Senate bill for the ad
mission of tbe State of West Virginia into the
Union. Mr. Conway would vote for the measure if
it came in a constitutional form. The bill was not
bo much for the admission of a new State as it was
for the division of an old one. West Virginia
was not a lawful State. He wished that a territorial
government had been organized there at tbe com
mencement of the rebellion. Mr. Brown argued
that the act would be lawful, and that Kentucky
was formed from Virginia in the same way. After
some discussion the House took up the special order
authorizing collectors, etc., to administer oaths. The
orde'r passed. Mr. Brown then resumed his remarks,
advocating the admission of West Virginia into
the Union. He was followed by Messrs. Colfax,
Olin, Hutchins, Edwards, and Stevens, who spoke in
favor of the bill. The House adjourned without con
cluding the question.
A bill was reported in the Senate to-day by Mr.
Wilson, from the Committee on Military Affairs, to
establish an arsenal and ordnance depot on the tide
water of New York harbor. Mr. Rice offered a reso
lution, which was referred, that the lands and an
nuities of the Sioux Indians be forfeited, and they
be removed far away from white settlements. Mr.
Wright offered a resolution instructing the Military
Committee to seek some more efficient and practica
ble system than the one now in use for the identifi
cation aDd discharge of soldiers. The same was
adopted. Mr. Trumbull's motion providing for the
discharge of State prisoners, and authorizing judges
of the United States Court to take bail and recog
nizances to secure their trial was ordered to be
printed and postponed until Thursday.
A resolution was adopted in the House requesting
the Secretary of War to inform the House the num
ber of commissioned officers absent from the army,
and the cause of such absence; the number of major
generals and brigadier-generals without a command;
the names of members on each staff of Buoh gener
als; the number of aids-de-camp which may be dis
pensed with without injury. The consideration of
the Virginia bill was resumed. Mr. Noel stated his
reasons for supporting the bill, and would save the
life of the Union, whether constitutionally or not.
Mr. Segar spoke against it, and in the name of the
loyal people of Eastern Virginia protested against
the injustice now sought to be inflioted upon them.
What would become of the loyal people outside of
the new State? He wanted the Wheeling govern
ment to remain as a nucleus around whioh other
counties might rally. Mr. Sheffield favored the bill
The Senate bill for the admission of West Vir
ginia into the Union passed by a vote of 93 against
65; after which the House adjourned.
In the Senate to-day petitions in favor of a general
bankrupt act were presented by Messrs. King, Pome

trary arrests in Delaware was taken up. Mr. Morrill
spoke at length in defense of the President. Messrs.
Bayard, Powell, Fessenden, and others continued the
discussion.
A message was laid before the House by the
Speaker, recommending the thnQks of Congress to
Lieut. Worden for his gallant conduot on the Monitor
iu the combat with the Merrimac, each thanks being
necesary to advance him ono grade in tbe naval list of
officers. It was referred to the Com. on Naval Matters.
Mr. Fenton wished to have the Secretary of the Navy
directed to furnish convoy to ship? oarrying supplies
to Europe for the relief ot the distressed operatives.
The regular order of business was oalled for. Mr.
Wickliffe opposed the resolution calling on the Secre
tary of War to state tbe number of soldiers on the
army roll, and tbe regiments unpaid up to December
1,1862, etc. It was adopted with an amendment.
Mr. Yeaman offered a resolution, for future consider
ation, that the President’s emancipation proclama
tion was not warranted by the Constitution, which

journed to Monday.
Havana, Dec. 6.
By the Conway came a colonel in the Mex
ican arm; Jon some Governmental business.
Colonel Orapesa and Mr. Beojaman Russel,
bearer of American dispatches, both of whom
have come from Vera Cruz and Orizaba, place
the position of the French as very critical.—
They have no fodder for their few mules and
cattle and have do fresh food for the troops,
who are getting sick with dysentary from hav
ing to live on canned provisions. Those who
are at Jalapa have been cut off £rom their
supplies at Vera Cruz by the retaking by the
Mexicans of Puenta and Nacional a part of
which has been destroyed.
The Mexicans are working continually on the
fortifications of Puehle and Mexico, aDd the
roads between them. The determination at
tbe capital is to open the retaining walls and
sluices of the lakes in the heights around the
oity. in case the French get possession of
Puebla, and thus flood the whole city and
whole valley, rending it impossible for man
or beast to approach the city, save by the turn
pikes, which arc very high, and which alone
will be above water, save the second stories
and roofs of the city. These turnpikes are to
be defended.
Colonel Orapesa and two others passengers
per steamer Conway, succeeded in evading the
brigand guerrillas, and arrived in safety.
TERRIBLE COLLIERY EXPLOSION,
Washington, Deo. 10
On Saturday, November 2, an explosion
took place in the Walker Colliery, a pit about
three miles from Newcastle. Sixteen men and
boys wero killed. The London Times says :
“ The appearance above ground was that of
the eruption of a volcano. The spectators
board the sound of a tremendous rush of air up
the working-shaft, and. on looking in that di
rection. saw steam and a cloud of fragments
flying from the pit's mouth. Below, the first
warning they had of the explosion was like
the sound of a hurricane, and its effect on
themselves was to throw them violently down.
The seam of coal itself was set on fire, and
charred dead bodies were close to the part
which had ignited. Io other parts of the pit,
the hewers were struck down at their work,
and five bodies were found in the ‘broken.’—
One man had been blown a distance of thirty
yards from the face of the seam. The scene
which presented itself to the exploring party
afterwards was that of a wreck. On\he one
hand a man lay dead, on the other was a
horse on his knees, his ears pricked up, his
eye-balls still appearing to glare with fright,
though be was quite dead, and had probably
been killed instantaneously by the first and
only shock of the explosion. As soon as the
shock was heard, men in the remote parte of
the pit ran for their lives, but the fire-damp
overtook them and strnck them down like a
shot.”
The Secretary of War in bis report
states that the total Dumber of officers and pri
teB m field at the present is over 800,000.
When the quotas are filled up the total ■will
be increased to one million. Under the calls
for troops in July and August four hundred
and thirty-two thousand were enlisted for
three years. Within a fraction of fifty thou
sand recruits have been added to the old reg
iments. The number In general military
hospitals at the date of the Surgeon General’s
report was fifty eight thousand, but the whole
number of soldiers nnder medical treatment,
including hospitals in the field, was not less
than ninety thousand.

NEWS FROM MEXICO
THE PBBBIDBHT’S PaOCIiABATIOS.
In an article on the Emancipation Procla
mation of the President, the Louisville Jour
nal oi Saturday week says:
“ The policy announced in the proclamation
not merely violates the Constitution, hat as
sumes a principle which abolishes the Consti
tution altogether, and substitutes therefor the
uncontrolled will of the President. President
Lincoln, as we feel assured, could not have
been conscious of this fhet when he consented
to issue the proclamation, but the fact is never
theless true. We, several days ago, demon
strated that the proclamation is not legimate
ly an act of military necessity. We need not
now repeat this demonstration. No man
both sane and intelligent will gainsay the
eonclasion. If, however, the proclamation is
not legitimately an act of military necessity, it
must depend, for justification, on the broad
principle that the President has a right to do
whatever in bis discretion may best preserve
the nation, regardless of the Constitution and
the laws. And this is, in fact, the principle
on which the radicals seek to justify the proc
lamation. Yet what is this principle but the
principle of a Dictatorship f Nothing less
It is the principle of a dictatorship cf the most
absolute description. It clothes the President
with an authority more absolate than that of
Cincinnatus. It clothes him with an authority
as absolute as that of Caesar or of Sylla. In
plain terms, it makes his uncontrolled will
the supreme law of the land. There is no
possible escape from this conclusion.”
Dr. Olds Chosen to the Ohio Legislature
The Illegal Arrests Condemned . —One of
the most significant indications of the signs
of the times is contained in the following
from the Cincinnati Enquirer :
Dr. Edson B. Olds, who has been for some
months imprisoned in the political Bastile at
New York, has been chosen to the Ohio Leg
islature from the county of Eairfield by 2,500
majority. This is by far the largest Democrat
ic majority ever given in Fairfield county.—
At the last election it was 1,800. The people
are becoming aroused on the illegal arrest
system, and are expressing it in thunder tones.
Dr. Olds was denounced as a “ traitor,” and
ho is endorsed by 2,500 majority in the coun
ty where he lives ? The election was a spe
cial one, to fiill the vacancy occasioned by the
death of’Mr. Jeffries.
LOYAL ABOLITIONISTS.
The Milwaukee News asks to what Aboli
tionists are loyal? To the Constitution?—
They have suspended it. To the Union ?
They boldly proclaimed that they are not for
the Union as it was, but for “ a Union as it
ought to be.” To the States ? They propose
to blot out State lines ! To the Government?
They ignore the laws of Congress, and scorn
the decisions of the Supreme Court? To the
President ? They propose to depose him if he
does not obey them ?

EMPLOYMENT. -The Undersigned has,
for several years past, been engaged in a business,
which has yielded him at the rate of three thousand dol
lars per annum, and is now willing to teach it to others.
The business is of highly useful and general character,
adapted both to cities and villages, and one that any person
of ordinary capacity, young or old, male or female, can ac
quire with a few hour’s practice, and by which they can
secure a very handsome income. Several young ladies who
have received instructions from me, both in New York
Stßte and Pennsylvania, are earning upwards of s>s per
week by it, and there is no reason why aoy one else can
not do the same. Invalids, even, can do well by it, as it is
no peddling affair, but a business that Is perfectly respocta

A new volume of this popular Journal commences on
the first of January. It Is published weekly, and every
number contains sixteen pages of useful information, and
from five to ten original engravings of new inventions and
discoveries, all of which are prepared expressly for its
columns.
TO THE MECHANIC AND MANUFACTURER.
No person engaged in any of the mechanical or manu
facturing pursuits should think of “doing without” the
Scientific American. It costs bnt six cents per week;
every number contains .from six to ten engravings of new
machines and inventions, which can not be fonnd in any
other publication.
TO THE INVENTOR.
The Scientific American is Indispensable to every in
ventor, as it not only contains Illustrated descriptions of
nearly all the best inventions as they come out, but each
number contains an Official List of the Claims of all the
Patents issued from the United States Patent Office during
the week previous; thus giving a correct history of the
progress of inventions in .-this country. We are also re
ceiving, every week, the best scientific journals of Qreat
Britain, France and Germany; thus placing in our posses
sion all that is transpiring In mechanical science and art
in those old countries. We Bball continue to transfer to
our columns copious extracts from these journals of what
ever we may deem of interest to our readers.
A pamphlet of lostruction as to the best mode of ob
taining Letters Patent on new inventions, is furnished
free on application.
Messrs. Munk A Co., have acted as Patent Solicitors for
more than seventeen yean, in connection with the publi
cation of the Scientific American, and they refer to 20,000
patentees for whom they have done business.
No charge is made for examining sketches and models of
new inventions and for advising inventors as to their
patentability.
. CHEMISTS, ARCHITECTS. MILLWRIGHTS AND
FARMERS.
The Scientific American will be fonnd a most nsefal
journal to them. All the new discoveries in the science of
chemistry are giving in its columns, and the interests of
the architect and carpenter are not overlooked; all the new
Inventions and discoveries appertaining to these pursuits
being published from week to week. Useful and practical
information pertaining to the Interests of millwrights and
mill-owners will be found In the Scientific American, which
Information they can not possibly obtain from any other

It makes the Hair soft and glossy. ' It invigorates the
Hair. It beautifies the Hair. It cleanses the Hair. It
has a most delightful perfume.
It prevents the Hair from falling off; it fastens it to the
scalp. It is the only article ever yet discovered that will
curl straight Hair in beautiful curls, without injury to the
Hair or scalp.
The HYPERION does not in any manner interfere with
the
NATURAL SOFTNESS OF THE HAIR.
It neither scorches nor dries it. The HYPERION can be
so applied as to cause the Hair to carl for one day, or for
one week, or for one month, or any longer period desired.

MEDICAL PROFESSION and the PUBLIC, as combining,
in the most convenient and efficacious form, the well
established virtues and properties of Onbebs and Copaiba.
For the speedy and eflectnal relief and cure of all SEXUAL
DISEASES, it may justly be considered one of the greatest
and most valuable discoveries In the annals of medicine,
frequently effecting a cure in three or fonr days. In its
preparation as an extract or a paste, the usual nauseous
taste is avoided, and it is, consequently, never fonnd to
interfere with the digestion, while, from Its greater on
centration, the dose is mnch reduced. It may be relied on
as the best mode for tbe administration of these remedies
in the large class of diseases of Doth sexes to which they
are applicable.
N. B.—Purchasers aie advised to ask for
TARRANT’S COMPOUND EXTRACT OF CUBEBB AND
COPAIBA,
and to take nothing else—as imitations and-worthless
preparations, under similar names, are in the market.
Pamphlets accompany the medicine, containing fall and
ample directions. Price, $l.OO. Sent by express on receipt
of price.

prmbbvins mrmon,
The preservation oiLihe letter ltself of thaPOST-HABK : .
and POSTAGE-STAMP, generally destroyed with the de
tached cover, ha* long been deemed * matter of the first
importance. This desideratum 1* now triumphantly secured
by this ingenious Invention. Many obvious advantages
must arise from the general use of this envelope.
Safety by additional sealing; the stamp
connecting the envelope and letter securely together; and
this is never liable to be omitted, though the of
the flap is frequently neglected or imperfectly done.
Second Security mfint Impertinent Intrusion; the
letter and envelope being firmly attached by the stamp*
and indosure cannot be Inspected even If the flap be dan- -
deetinely opened.
3 T Wru--Safety against Abstraction of Valuable Tnolo
rares. If the flap be left unsealed, or opened with feloni
ous Intent, It will be impossible to open the letter and
thence bank notes and drafts without so mutilating the
envelope aa to insure detection.
JfrvrtA Security for the free payment of the Pottage;
as the stamp, when once properly placed in this window,
cannot be removed without its destruction.
Ftflh —Advantage therefore to the Government; by the
effectual destruction of every stamp in Its first use;
Facility to the Post Qfflee Operations; by a uni*
form location of the stamp In the upper right hand corner,
which is the most convenient position for post Office
mark.
Verification of the Mailing; by scouring on the
letter itself the legal evidence of the time and place of it
being mailed. This has long been esteemed so desirable,
that many prudent persons are constrained to dispense
with the use of envelopes, that they may have the post'
mark on the letter; and others take the precaution to pin
the envelope again on the letter for identification.
Sg?dh —Certainty of the Date and Place on the Letter,
which are so frequently omitted by writers in carelessness
or hurry,
JWnflfc—Ornamentation; though some may tWnt
of small importance, certainly meets the approval of all
persons of taste.
Tenth —Ooet. Notwithstanding the many and unrivalled
advantages of the “ Stamp Sealing Envelopes,** they will
be furnished at a very small advance npon the prices of
those not having the benefit of this patent.

THE AMBER BASE,

MOUNTING ARTIFICIAL TEETH.H*ZHff
I would announce to my patrons and others requiring
the services of the Dentist, that I am about Introducing
tho AMBER BASE into my practice. The advantages of
this method of mounting teeth over the metalie base have
been fully established in the five years In which it has been
subject to the severest tests, with the most satisfactory
results.
It is fully as strong and durable as either silver or gold
—more easily kept clean, more natural to the touch of the
tongue and Ups, and it is firmer and more serviceable, in
the month, In consequence of our beibg able to obtain a
more perfect fit to tbe gum.
This work is not so expensive as gold, but a little higher
in price than silver. It will be warranted to give satisfac
tion, or be exchao ged for gold or silver work as the patient
may prefer.
