What datiMptielle of snowy ate s legal teallbe in
litio United Statesls a question frequently asked, and
oeittridelt few am able confidently to answer, for co
gent and obvious reasons, the power "to coin money,
iegulatethe value thereof, and of foreign coin, and to fix
the standard of weights and measures," is, by the
Cowden:ion of the United States, conferred on Con
growl aid thiStidat are expressly forbidden to "make
any thing but. gold and silver coin a tender in payment
id debts." In pursuance of the above mentioned
power,an Caws, passed soon after the organization
of the Government to establish a Mint for the purpose
of a national coinage. By this act our present deci-

wets declared to be a lawful tender in all payments
whatever. By enact passed in 1834. recognizing the
Mb:toted slightly too di fying the stenciled and weight
of our gold and rilverccrins, the gold coins issued prior
to July 1831,1834, are excluded. es a legal tender.
In relation to foreign gold and silver coins, great
cam* has been exercised, and a great number of acts
beta Leone time to time been passed, to suit the ever
talgencies of commerce. Having just com
- plated the somewhat laborious and perplexing task of
examining these several sett, for the purpose of ascer
with certainty the existing state of the law on
the I proceed to state the result, in the hope
that it may be useful to others.

-kiwis% rates:
1. The geld coins of Great Britain, of not less than
bquelted and fifteen and a half thousandths in

4. gold coins of Spain, Mexico and Columbia,
of the fineness of twenty carets and three grains and
- seven sixteenths ofa grain, at the rate of eighty nine

The fa/limber foreign silver coins are now a legal

Mg tents :

at the mes of one hundred cents for each dollar, the ac
teal weight whereof shall not be less than seventeen
pennyweights and sirrenteengtains, and in proportion
• for the parts thereof.
2. Spanish pillar dollars and the dollars of Mexico,
Pere and Bolivia. of not less than eight hundred and
ninety-seven thousandths in fineness, and four hundred

The Secretary of the Treasury is required by law to
caeseassays to be had at the Mint, at least once in
eevry year, of all the gold coins and of the silver coins,

La! what makes four teeth so unusually which?
Quoth Josh's dulcinia tohim t'uther night,
To make yourn look so, with a grin, replied Josh,
ee bought you a bottle of Thorn's Tooth Wash,
'Tis the best now in use, so the gentlefolks say,
And since they have tried this, cast all others away.
But to prove it the best to make the teeth shine,
Look again, my dear Sal, at tke lustre of mine.
Then try this great tooth wash,
The Teaborry tooth wash,
And see if this tooth wash of Thorn's is not fine.
Haying tried Dr. "Thorn's Tea Berry Tooth Wash,"
and become acquaintedwith the ingredients of its com
position, I cheerfully say, I consider it one of the safest,
as it it one of the most pleasant tooth washer now in
Use. ;DAVID HUNT, Dentist.
Pittsburgh, Sept. 15, 1842.
I take pleasure in stating, having made nee of
"Thorn's Tea Berry Tooth Wash," that it is one of the
best dentrifices in use. Being in a liquid form it com
bines neatness with convenience. While it cleanses
the enamel Ind removes the tartar from the teeth, its
perfume yields a fragrance peculiarly desirable.
The undersigned have used "Thorn'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 to be the best article of the kind now in use.
