A.LPACHA
Probably few ladies who woar and admiru the beau
dfol fabric called Alpacha ' are aware af the source of
itaprotiustion. The Alpacha is a wool-bearing animal,
tratigenions toSouth America, and is one of fear trade
tie* which bear general points of tesemblance to each
other. The Lama, one of these varieties, ha's been
long ittiown, and often described; but it is only within
a firw years that the Alpacha has been considered of
abet la Importance to merit particular notice.
dlaberutetbs of the wool of the Alpacha is black, the
redlaillibile being partly white, red and grizzled. It is
eaves/ Jong staple, often reaching twelve inches, and
resembles soft glossy hair by whicb character is not
loseby dyeing. The Indians in the South American
mountains manufacture nearly all their clothing from
this vionLand are enabled to appear in black dresses,
without the aid of e dyer. Both the Lariat and Al
va:lM are, perhaps, even more valuable to the natives
as twists of burden than wool-bearing animals, and the
theofistinacy of them is well known. The importance of
aniinaltuurbeen already considered by the English, in
their hat, woolen, and stuff trade, and an essay on the
• subject has been published by Dr. Hamilton, of Lon
don, from which some athese details are collected.
The woHliaor remarkable, being a jet black g10w...
iiilk-hlus hair, that it is fitted for the production of the
flexible fabrics differing front all others, occupying a
medium position between wool and silk. It is now
mingled with other materials in such a singular manner,
that• while a particular dye will .affect those, it will
leave, the-Alpacha wool with original black color,
andtites give rise to great .diversity.

physical ailments, much of which is harmless. But
your paper of Saturday contained a notice of a "thril

consequences. I allude to the use of vinegar as an
amhime to opium. Nothing could accelerate the ef
fects ofopium more certainly, rapidly and fatally, than
vinegar; and when a Turk wishes to commit suicide,
his usual course is to take his ordidary dose of opium,
and then swallow a cup of vinegar. This converts the
opium into an acetate, one of the most active and vir
ulent of poisons. et your readers, be cautioned
against vinegar as an antidote to laudanum.

La! what makes jour teeth so unusually whithl
Quoth Josh's dulciniatohim Cuther night,
To make yourn look so, with a grin, replied Josh,
I'+e bought you a bottle of Thorn's Tooth Wash,
'Tis tho best now inure, so the gentlefolks say,
AntFaint* . they have tried tbia, cast all others away
But to prove it the best to make the teeth shine.
Look again, my dear Sul, at tke lustre of mine.
Then try this great tooth wash,
•
The Teaberry tooth wash,
And see if this tooth wash of Thorn's is not fine.
Having tried Dr. "That n'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 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 dentrifices in use. Being in a liquid form it cum.
bines neatness with convenience. While it cleanses
the enamel and removes the tart% trom the teeth, its
perfume yields a fragrance peculiarly desirable. -
J. P. TIBBETTS, h.. D.
The undersigned have used "Thorn's Compound
Tea Berryrfooth Wash," and have found it to be an
extremely pleasant dentrifice, exercising a most salu
tary influence over the Teeth and Guins;.preserving
those indispensable members from premature decay,
preventing the accumulation of Tartar, acid purifying
the Breath. Having thoroughly tested its virtues, we
take plcasurein recommending it to the public, believ
ing it 'o be the best article of the kind now in use.
