to the teeth, will be removed. Or if a dry powder is preferred, the charcoal may be put into the phial and secured from the air by a tight cork.
This is the cheapest, the most convenient and ef- fectual preservative for the teeth. There is nothing about it unpleasant or injurious: while many of the tooth powders that are peddled about the country as a sure elixir, are unpleasant to the taste, detriment- al to the health, injurious to the gums, and destruc- tive to the teeth; and others of thesc wonderful pre- parations are nothing but pulverised charcoal, which any one may prepare for himself in fifteen minutes, and thus save his twenty-five cents.
A fourth-of-July orator whose address appeared in a Western paper, commences thus; " Fellow Citi- zens and Ludies." This reminds us of the last address of George III. to his Parliament, when his insanity was discovered by the commencement of his speech thus :- " My Lords and Peacocks !"
A couple having attended one morning this week at Worksop church, for the purpose of being joined together in the holy bands of inatrimcny, on the usu- al question being put by the Rev. Divine to the bridgeroom, " Will you have this woman?" &c. he answered, at the same time most vigorously scratch- : ing his head with both his hands, " Whey yees, I should like, Sur."-Nottingham Mercury.

DECEMBER.
Preservation of Health.
The convivial meetings, and the heated rooms con- sequent upon them, are the source of many diseases in this month. Warm clothing, temperance, and regular hours, are, therefore, essential.
The month of December closes the year with nearly the same character as those of the preceding month.
Coals are an article of great expense; coke may be advantageously used with them, or balls compounded of clay, small coal, and charcoal. Ccals should be kept moderately wetted and cinders carefully sifted.
Order in affairs is one of the things on which a man's success in life most especially depends. The rules of order are mostly summed up in these two precepts :--
1. A place for every thing; and every thing in its place.
2. A time for every thing; and every thing in its time. De Witt, the famous minister of state in Holland, being asked, how he managed to transact such a load of business? replied, By doing one thing at a time.
To choose time, is to save time; and an unseasonable motion is but beating the air.
He that does his.turn in time sits half idle.
It is useless shutting the stable door when the steed it stolen.
" Had I wist," quoth the fool.
Take care of the minutes; the days will take care of themselves.
A wise man counts his minutes. He lets no time slip; for time is life, which he makes long by the good hus- bandry of a right use and application of it .- L'Estrange.

MARRIED LIFE.
The Chillicothean, published in Ohio, contains a poetical notice against trusting a certain married la- dy therein mentioned, which concludes as follows: " Farewell-a long farewell to married life,
Cursed be the hour that gave me such a wife, Who fairest days could cloud with her sweet will, And raise a tempest-tho' the winds were still. I'll live alone-henceforth-(a quiet tiller.) And have no more of her-so help mne God." JOHN MILLER.
A man at an ordinary had eaten so enormously, that the company were astonished and disgusted at his gluttony. The gentleman at the head of the ta- ble ironically pressed him to take another plateful, observing that he had actually eaten nothing. 'The gourmand declined taking any more, observing that his stomach was quite gone. Upon which an Irish- man opposite exclaimed, " Is it your stomach that's gone, my honey! sure you mean the bottom of it."
A WET PAIR .- On a very rainy day, a man entering his house was accosted by his wife in the following manner: 'Now my dear while you are wet, go and fetch me a bucket of water.' He obey- ed, brought the water and threw it all over her, say- ing at the same time, 'Now my dear, while you are wet go and fetch another.'
. A gentleman lately took a bet that he would cause all the bells of a well frequented tavern in town to ring at the same period, without touching one of them, or even leaving the room .- This he accomplished by turning the stop-cock of the main gas pipe, and involving the whole in instant dark- ness In a short period the clangour of bells rung from every room and box in the house, which gain- ed him his bet amidst the general laughter and ap- plause even of the losers .- Glasgow Chronicle.
THE DINNER .- A PARODY.
I knew by the smoke that so gracefully curl'd,
'Throughout the long hall, that a dinner was near, And I said " If there's food to be found in the world, A mouth that was hungry might hope for it here. 'Twas noon, and on benches that stood there around In silence repos'd the voluptuous rake;
Every tongue was at rest, and I heard not a sound, But the Kitchen maid pounding the bony beef steak.
And " here, by this long dinner table," I hallooed, ".With salmon, potato, hot pudding, and meat. Which would break, when I bit 'em, and sink when I swallow'd,
How long could I live, and how much could I eat! By yon bottle of sherry, whose red bosom glows In the gush of the sunbeam, how sweet to recline; And to know that the waters I guzzled were those Which inspir'd Tom Moore with a spirit divine.

OBSERVATIONS ON' THE WEATHER.
THERE is, perhaps, no subject of more universal interest in the whole range of natural knowledge than that of the unceasing fluctuations which take place in the atmosphere in which we are immersed. The interest, the health, the enjoyment, or the convenience of every one is, more or less, constantly affected by the weather, and the general anxiety hence arising gives rise to perpetual endeavours to prognosticate its changes. In this, as in more important matters, the curiosity and credulity of the ignorant have been made the sport of the artful and designing; and prophecies upon this subject, if less injurious than upon others, have certainly not been less absurd.
But although we neither pretend to prophesy ourselves, nor to teach the art of prophesying to others, we are of opinion that useful anticipations may be formed upon the safe principle, that like causes always produce like effects. It is thus that we anticipate cold in winter and heat in summer: and, for reasons not quite as obvious, but which will be hereafter explained, we expect the driest winds in March, and a period of heavy rain in July. We abjure the legend of St. Swithin, but do not doubt the experience upon which it was engrafted. We have great respect, also, for the judgment of the gardener and the mariner upon atmospheric changes; for they form their opinions upon constant observations of phenomena which escape the attention of those who are less exposed to their influence. Observations such as these science will aid and extend, not change; and, we doubt not, that if the same pains were taken to spread the knowledge of useful inventions in this department of science, as have hitherto been devoted to perpetu- ate error, the spirit of inquiry, assisted by such artificial means, would largely extend our knowledge of Meteorology* and its useful applications. Of the advantages of such an union, we have a remarkable in- stance in our own days, in the adoption of the Marine Barometer. Even common sailors are now ac- quainted with the use of this instrument, and to its timely warnings may a valuable ship is acknow- ledged to owe its preservation.
Such useful knowledge in this department of nature, it will be our aim to substitute for the absurdities with which the popular almanacs have hitherto been disfigured. The unfolding of our plan we must leave to time; for few people can be aware of the extent of the information which may be extracted from the works of different individuals who have made this subject their study: information, however, which has never been collected into a popular form; but which it shall be our endeavour to divest of such un- necessary obscurity as the less learned are subject to find in the observations of scientific men.
The first step which we shall take for this purpose is to explain, as concisely as possible, the meaning of the terms in which the observations in the following pages are recorded; referring, for a more full ac- count of the practical use which may be made of thein, to our subsequent ALMANACS and the Treatises on meteorology.
The Barometer, by which the first is measured, is an instrument now too well known to require des- cription in the limited space to which this explanation must necessarily be confined. We shall, however, have something to say, hereafter, upon this instrument, and of some misconceptions of its use. The ob- servations are recorded in inches and thousandth parts of an inch of mercury. The Thermometer, by which the variations of heat are ascertained, is also generally known. The temperature registered is that of the air in the shade: but, besides this, the power of the sun's rays is recorded, and the force of ter- restrial radiation; which we cannot here further explain than by describing it as the cold produced at night upon a plot of short grass exposed to the full aspect of the sky; and which, in clear and calm weather, is always considerably below the temperature of sheltered situations. The Hygrometer, by which the state of the atmosphere is ascertained with regard to moisture, is not as generally known as the two preceding instruments, and will, hereafter, require a full description: it must be sufficient, at present, to remark, that it is a contrivance by which the degree of temperature is readily noted at which moisture begins to be deposited upon a cold body : as we see in summer in the familiar instances of a bottle of wine brought from a cellar, or a decanter of water fresh filled fromn a well. This degree is cal- led the dew-point; and from it the degree of dryness may be accurately calculated, and the force or elas- ticity of the atmosphere of steam, which is always mingled with the air.
*From two Greek words, signifying the Doctrine of Celestial i. e. Atmospherical things.
THE ECLIPSES FOR THE YEAR 1829.
1. There will be an Eclipse of the Moon on the 20th of March at 8h. 59min. }Osec. in the morning, therefore invisible.
2. An Eclipse of the Sun on the Sd of April, at 5h. 29 min. 23 sec. in the after- noon. Invisible on account of the Moon's south latitude.
