RESIDENT DENTIST,
R ESPECTFULLY informs his friends, and
tbc public generally, that he continues
the practice of DENTISTRY in all its branch
es, and has fitted tip on office, over the store
of McGuire 4 Piuson, whero he is prepared
to execute alloperationiuppertaioing to Den
tistry, in the most approved manner.
Hu would also call the particular attention
of those in want of Artificial Work, to his su
perior style of teeth,- set on gold plate ; fur
beauty, strength end life-like nppeaeanee,
they are not surpussed. As an impression has
been made that my prices for dental opera
tions nre higher than the usual run of Den
tists, I beg leave to say thatthey are the same
as charged by Dentists at Augusta, Macon
and Savannah. For Artificial Work mychar
gos are as follows:
Entire Sets Upper and Lower from $100 to $2M
Half Sots, Upper or Lower, from 5(1 to 150
Temporary Sets, Upper and Lower, 25 each.
Purtial Sots in proportion to the above.
Aa I atu well posted in all the late improve
ments of the day, I fuel confident that I can
meet tho wants of all who may need the ser
vices ofa Dentist, and if references are want
ed; aa to their utility in answering the purpo
ses of naturo, I can give them in abundance,
from those wiio have tested my skill, for the
Inst fourteen years, in this, and adjoining

The Camel on the Plains.—In a re
cent letter to the War Department,
Lieut. Beale writes:
I have lately tried effectually tho Com
parative value of mules and camels
pock animals. Tho experiment leaves
the palm with the camels. Both trains
receiving the order to start at tho same
time in the morning, the camels invari
ably arrive at camp (in a distance of
twenty-fivo miles) an hour and some
times an hour and .twenty minutes
ahead of, the mule train ; the mules car
rying a burden of two hundred pounds,
tho camels packed with four hundred,
besides a rider, armed with his rifle, re
volver and ammunition, and his bed
ding thrown over the pack to sit on.—
Tho young are great pets in camp, but
very mischievous—poking their noses
into every bag, pot and pan about the
camp fires. Their great aim in life qt
present seems to bo to ape the manners
and habits of their sires—kneeling down
anti growling and complaining precise
ly like the old ones do whenever the
train is packed. Wo iiave entirely dis
continued tho cumbersome Oriental ap
paratus used ns a saddle, and have in its
place one of light, useful and simple
construction.
A Withering Reuuke.—James Gor
don Bennett’s skin is tolerably thick—
doubtless from the-many castigations he
is received, both morally and physi
cally; -but wo think he must have ‘gquir-
m td” when he read what Mr. Pryor of
Virginia said about him in Congress. In
making a personal explanation in the
House on Friday last, Mr. Pryor said *,
“Bennett had violated all the rights
and virtuous instincts of humanity—-a
wretch who bears on his back the soars
of many merited chastisements, and in
whose heart is the taint of every con
ceivable contamination—a man consen
ting to the dishonor of his own family
—a foul and loathesome creature whose
name needs only to J>e mentioned to be
execrated, and from, whose contact truth
.and virtue shrink—^ fiend denied the
courtesies of the social circle.”

When the summer of youth is slow

its close, it is pleasant to look book
through the vista of time upon the sor
rows and felicities of earlier years. If
we have a home to shelter and hearts to
