CHANGES IN THE AIISSISSIPPI
Harbor of St - Louis.— The necessity fur prompt

In the late report made by Capt Cram, on the liar
'ber of St Louis, the extraordinary fact is shown that
the mouth-13f the Missouri River has, in about twenty
years, moved two miles up the Mississippi and that it
-is constantly moving up; a fact which is accountod

much inure rapid than that of the Mississippi and as a

There the American Bottom presents a series of low
grounds, ravines and ponds, which are suppo:erl to
have mice been the bed of the Mississippi. The solid
ground that bassepentted these from the Mississippi
is each year tihraded, so that the river is gradually ap

La! what makes ;our teeth so unusually whith?
Qnoth Josh's dolcidu to him Citifies night,
To make yourn look so, with a grin, replied Josh,
bought you a bottle of Thorn's Tooth Wash,
'LA the hest now in use, so the gentlefolks say,
And since theyhave tried this; rest all others away
But to piece it the best to make the teeth shine,
Look again, my dear Stil, nt die' lustre of Mine.
Then try this great tooth wash,
The Teaherry tooth wash.
And see if thin tooth wash of Thorn's is not fine
Having tried Dr. "T hot n's Tea Berry Tooth Wash,"
and become acquainted with the ingredients of its com
position, cheerfully say, I consider it one of the safest,
as it is one of the most pleasant tooth washes now in
use. DAVID HUNT, Dentist.
Pittsburgh, Sept. 15, 1842.
I take pleasure in stating, having made use of
"Thorn's Tea Berry Tooth Wash," that it is one of the
best dentritices in use. Being in a liquid form It COM..
bities neatness with convenience. While it cleanses
the enamel and removes the tartar from the teeth, its
perfume yields a fragrance peculiarly desirable.
J. P. TIDICETTS. IV D
- . .
The undersigned have used nTharn's Compound
Tea Berry Tooth Wash," and have found it to be an
extremely pleasant dentrifice, exercising a most salu
tary influence over the Teeth and Gums: preserving
those indispensable members from premature decay,
preventing the accumulation of Tartar, and purifying
the Breath. Having thoroughly tested its virtues, we
take pleasure in recommending it to the public, believ
ing it .0 be the hest article of the kind now in use.
