Dr. Thomas White's Vegeta

ble Tooth-Ache Drops. THE only Specific ever offered to the public from which a permanent and radical curt

may be obtained of that disagreeable pain the

tootn acne wun an its attendant eviis ; 6ucn .s fracturing-the jaw in extracting of the teeth, which otten proves more painful than the tooth ache itself i and coldjpasstng from the decaying teeth to the jaw thence to the head, producing a rheumatic affection with many other unpleas ant effects, such as a disagreeable breath, bad taste in tfie mouth, fee. Sec. all of which are produced from foul or decaying teeth. I am happy in having it in my power to offer to the world remedy, that will not only remove the pain, but

preserve the teeth from further decay, (9 times

out of ID it properly applied,) and arrest the disease in such as are decaying, and have nui commenced aching, restoring them to health and

usefulnessCERTIFICATE. Mr. Thomas H hite: 1 have the pleasure to in

form you, hat agreeablt to your rtquest, I have

been using your tooth ache drops in my prac

tice fur sometime past, and I must acknowledge that I find them far superior to any th .ng 1 have ever yet knotvn for that purpose. You are en

tirely safe in recommending them to cure, nine times out of ten, lor, from the success I have bad, I oelieve your recommendation falls short of their merits. I am well convinced, that it will cure most cases of the tooth ache, when it is timely and properly applied I am not able to say much at this time as to its preservative properties but from what I havs seen of your teeth that have been long cured and preserved from decaying, and from a few weeks experience, I am decidedly of the opinion, that it will have a very benifi cial etreot in preserving the teeth ; and recommend it, hoping that it may prove ar blessing to humanity, and advantageous to yourself. With respect, I remain ycurs, &e. WM, I. A.B1RKEY. Surgeon Dentist, No. 99, South fifth Street Phiadelphia Pa. Sept. 12. IS29. C7" For sale by Samuel Morrison, LawTeocebargh.

of the year. Ihe expenditures during the ensuing year, may be estimated at 31,000, which will leave in the treasury on the 1st of Dec'r 1830, 648 77. . The state revenue from the.) ear 1822 to this time, has arisen almost entirely

from the tax on noils and land. During

this period the taxable polls have increas

ed from 28,500 to 48,500, and the taxa ble land from 1,874,710 acres, to 3,595,

177 acres. The increase was much lar

ger in the years 1822 and 1824, thai any which have succeeded them, as ma

be seen from the following table of actual receipts, calculating the revenue at

the present rates. Rec'ts for the year 1822,

Judging from the past, the revenue ol

the slate can hardly be expected to in

crease more than from fifteen to eighteen

hundred dollars per annum. The increase in expenditures during the last seven years, has been principally in the following items:

Legislative & printing, about 5,000 00

Probate Judges and wolf scalp bounties, 3500 00

, Making; 8,500 00 New occasions of expenditure will probably arise in the judiciary and other departments, so that a considerable sur plus revenue is not soon to be expected. Respectfully submitted, SAMUEL MERRILL, Treas'r.

Mount Vesuvius, Extract of letter from an officer on board the United Slates, Frigate Java, Port Mabongl dated September 23, 1829, to & gentleman in Washington city. "We arrived here a few days ago; from a pleasant cruise onthecoastofltaly; Africa, &c. visiting the principal cities, in the island of Sicily, Malta j &c. but all I have seen bears no comparison wilh the grand city of Naples, which, for the splendor of scenery that surround the many monuments of ancient pride & grandieur which are in its vicinity, or the vices and luxury of its court, stands pre-eminent. On going ashore the first object to which we directed our attention, was visiting the grand and noble theatre of St. Carlos, which surpasses any tbwg 1 have ever seen in its splendid

and gaudy decorations and numerous company of performers.

"At 12 o'clock at night, four of my

brother flit ers, with melf, left the city,; and proceeded to a small village at thei

foot of Mount Vesuvius., where we procured asses, and with our guides, ommenced our toilsome progress to the top of the mountain, among immense beds of lava; on a road whose surface was much more broken and uneven than any thingj of the kind I had ever before seei-. The night was rather dark, and at intervals we could see the giand and awfol sight of Vesuvius, behhing forth its flames, which it continues to do for a mouth at a time. From being unactas tomed to it, we felt rather insecure; and indeed when there were so many examples of its devastations aroono u., it is not to be wondered at that we. should ihink of apparent danger; but theinhabitantspay no kind of attention to it. Ori arriving at the hermit's dwelling which is on the -pine, we found the door closed; and all hands wrapt in sleep, 3 o'clock, A. M. We; however, soon induced the hermit to rise from his slumbers. We found within several Russian officers; who were bound to the top of the mountain as well as ourselves; and as it uas very foggy they had concluded not to go, but we Yankees were not to be put off by trifles; so; after refreshment, we proceeded on, and they followed, and after one hour of great toil we reached the crater; and indeed, I consider my-: self well compensated for tbe labour of ascending. 'The crater ia very lage and is hcrrid in its appearance. It was sinoking very much, and at times throwing up fiery cinders; and on approaching too near we were almost suffocated with the smell of sulphur. The prospect below us was very beautiful; indeed; we saw every thing within many mile3 around, including Naples, its beautiful bay, and the pretty villages in its vicinity. After re

maining long enough to see every thing

satisfactorily, we descended; in much lees

time than we had ascended. On our return, we visited the cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum; which were destroy

ed by an eruption of the mountain in the

year 79 of the christian era. J here are many splendid remains in Pompeii of ill former magnificence and grandieur, which I have not room; in tlfe limits of a letter, to mention; and in fact my powers of description are inadequate to the task."

Pressure of Water on Dams. -Multiply the length of the dam by its perpendicular height, and that product by half the height; and it will give the number of feet of water pressing against it. Since

a cubical foot of water weighs 62 1-2 Ids if the cubic feet be multiplied by 62 l!-2f it will give the weight of the water ihat presses upon the dam. Thus in a dam 20 feet long, and 4 feet high, tbe pressura is 20 multiplied by 4, the product multiplied by 2, and the last product by 6 J 1-2; equal to 10,000 lbs. this rule is useful in calculating the necessary strength of dams, flues, &c.

Rats. Near Edinburgh, a farmer,

who was troubled with rats, recentlycaught upwards of 400, by placing a large copper kettle in his corn loft, filling it about half full of water, and strewing

a thin sprinkling of chaff over it. By a

few boards extending from the wall to

the kettle, the rata could jump among

what they took to be a fine lot of grain, and died the death.

Idlers. Skilful politicians have been so sensible of the dangers of idleness, that they have always been vigilant to find work for their people. Wherr Pisistrasus had the supreme command, he sent for those who were idle about the streets, and asked why they loitered about, doing nothing. "If your cattle he

dead," said he, "take others from me and work; if you want seed, that also will I give you." So fearful web he of the injurious effects that would result frorjfl habits of idleness. Ib. Silk. 50,000 worth of sewing silk is said to be made annually in the county of New-Haven, Conn., where the mulberry grows in great abundance
