Patronised by her Majesty, his Royal Highness Prince Albert, and her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent. This valuable SUCCEDANEUM for STOPPINC DE CAYED TEETH, however large the cavity is far superior to anything ever before used, as it is placed in the tooth in a soft state, without any pressure or pain, and in a short time becomes as hard as the enamel, and will remain firm in the tooth for many years, rendering extraction unnecessary. It arrests •all further progress of decay, and renders them again useful in mastication. _ . _ • Prepared only by Mr. Thomas, Surgeon-Dentist, 68, Ber ners-street, Oxford-street. Price 4s. 6d., and will be sent free by post to any part of the kingdom. Mr. Thomas continues to supply the loss of teeth without springs or wires, and has introduced an entirely NEW DE SCRIPTION of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, which will be found very superior to all others, as they will never decay, nor become discoloured, and their perfect resemblance to nature defies detection even by the closest observer. This method does not require the extraction of any teeth or roots, or any ' , sinful operation whatever. The charges will be found much less than most Den•ists.

ACCIDENTS AT D E VONPORT.-0,, Saturday morn ing a building in the market of this town, which was sup ported on pillars, and appropriated for hanging the carcases of pigs on the cross-beams attached thereto, fell down on a number of persons who were engaged in business under the roof. The utmost confusion ensued. When the parties were taken from the ruins, it was discovered that a pig dealer front the country had his leg and thigh broken, and was otherwise injured; an industrious woman, a butcher's wife, had also a leg broken.

Parliament is informed that a copy of the Chinese treaty will bo laid before them. If along with it was laid a copy of the instructions under whiCh this treaty was negotiated, Parlia ment might be enabled to appreciate the degree of credit that is due -to the Government of Sir Robert Peel.

The one sitthig teokpLace in St. Stephen's, the other hi Cniqnt-gardeil. There was a marked contrast ia the proceedings of the- two .asseniblie.s.. In the Commons, so far as the Ministerial side .was concerned, ail-was vague and unmeaning, until. Sir Itohorp Bea was •foreed to speak out ;in Covent-gal den all was bold, dee.lo4r4ellitite. In the speeches of tile Queen and the mein- - hers of herflovernment, no one could discern a scintillation of mean ing; in the speeches of the gentlemen, who addressed the rival' tionae; everything wait so plain that-there was no possibility of mis conceiving a single sentence. The contrast was equally striking In another respect. The objects of the two houses were wholly diffe rent. The Commons, as the body is - at present constituted, seek to uphold all monopolies, anti especially the monster monopoiy„in corn; the object Sir which the meeting at Covent-garden took place was to abolish all monopolies, and especially the colossal monopoly In bread. Which of the two assemblies will triumph ? No one who was 11l Covent-garden - Theatre last night could hau•e a moment's doubt on the subject. • THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL FOR IRELAND. It would appear that the Attorney-General—or, to speak safely, the gentleman who was Attorney-General for Ire land three days ago—is determined that the world shall not forget the unseemly want of tamper which characterised his earlier pro. ceedings in the great repeal case. Matters werleginning to go on a little more smoothly. Those who were anxious for the cause of justice, and for the integrity of the British empire, were just congratulating themselves that Mr. Smith was really doing his work like a gentleman and a lawyer, whets, 10 1 the thunder.clap of yesterday comes down upon us. Under the very nose of full. bottomed justice herself—in the very atmosphere of law and equity —with Judges above—attornies below— Queen's Counsel atrouthi —his brief before—his junior behind him—the Queen's Attinti ney-General, wig, silk-gown, and all, electrifies the embodies Jos.. tice of Ireland by insisting on the satisfaction of shooting at Oa counsel for the traversers. Our ultra-Ministerial Contemporarlei seem to think this rather fine, and in the tone of a well. r dressed young gentleman who puts his back to th e tire, pull% up his collar, and "confesses" to som e sixteen cardinal virtues,. inform us that Mr. Smith acted, perhaps, immorally, certainly illegally, but at any rate, they do flatter themselves, like a gentle.- rnan. For ourselves, in this ludicrous and disgraceful affair W find It difficult to say whether the scandal or the absurdity preda minates. Can this "gentleman," we are tempted to ask, know ,wbat be is, where be is, what he professes, what he is paid for, what is the weight of the obligation which rests on his shoulders—. that he dares to postpone the interests of his country, which has employed him, the character of his party, the success of his cause, to the satisfaction of avenging a trumpery insult offered him by a still more trumpery opponent ? Here is the great demagogue of the day on his trial—the cause of civil Government itself at stake, as one party says—" a nation dragged to the bar of the Queen's Bench," as the other ejaculates—Europe looking on to see what happens—the majesty of the law in ezlremis twelve honest jurymen all gaping attention to the engrossing argument when the Attorney-General— the advocate of law, and order, and government—diverts the course of proceedings by "an appeal to the Court of twelve paces," by challenging Mr. Fitzgibbon. Derogatory words had been spoken of the three Crown Counsel, which the Attorney. General (on the principle, we suppose, of "scniores priores'') thought it decorcus to " take up." The Attorney-General, " with an unusually stern expression of countenance" discharged at Mr. Fitzgibbon a three-siornered note. Mr. Fitzgibhon, three-cornered note in hand, elbowed his way across the Court, thumped, stamped, vibrated, shook his wig, and, taking nothing by his move but a severe " Nothing could justify you, Sir!" sat down in wrath unappeased and una, peas able. But then enter the Dis majorum gentium—the Judges of the Court; Mr. Fitzgibbon throws himself upon their protection, and so tells the Attorney- General that he is not the man to be bullied into an apology. Mr. Moore, with a feeling which does him credit, beseeches the belligerents not to be in a hurry. The Court re. monstrates—the Attorney-General withdraws—Mr. Fitzgibbon ex. pFliatizngsi. Mr. b b c M o rt the right. The Attorney-General is conte n t, a nd Mr. Fitzgibbon . re les k t ee h ps e s c h o o n u t l i d au s a a l y ly th i e nt w il r in o g ng th th e in t g ai a ls s w of ell M as r. proceeds in his address to the jury. And this is an Irish trial! This is the way in which an Irish Attorney. General vindicates the law ! Above all, this is the anode iu which an Irish Court enter - ta:ns such a specimen of truly Irish legal argument I The Court was perfectly " satisfied, and hoped there would be no more about it"—only anxious, as it would seem, not to interfere unduly with the excited feelings of the " jontlemen :" _. " We are reluctant to give an intimation of the strong opinion we entertain as to the impropriety of what has taken place in Court, willing to make allowance for those heated feelings which, when called forth, frequently carry gentlemen beyond the limits which their Cooler judgments would forbid them to pass." We, for our parts, entertain no such overwhelming reluctance . Mr. Smith may be—it appears to be on all hands admitted that he is—a gentleman —a man of honour—a sound lawyer. But, reluc. tant or not reluctant, we feel bound to say, that a person so wholly unable to command his temper, that in the very crisis of a trial. and such a trial, he cannot help giving his and his employer's enemy the triumph of such an expos& as we have recorded, is plainly un fitted, for the responsible and difficult situation in which he finds himself. Even if such a strange escapade is of a nature to find favour with the Irish people, as it seems to have found mercy from the Court, it still remains a degradation to a court of justice —an immoral, illegal, uncivilised exhibition with which no people ought to be indulged. " Cassio, I love thee well ; But never more be officer of mine." Mr. Smith remains, no doubt, an excellent advocate in a real action or an ordinary prosecution for burglary; but preserve the public from such an Attorney-Geneial. Our notice of this wild affair would be imperfect without &short reference to the sequel, as it appears in to-day's paper. The solemn pacification which took effect—as of record, we suppose—under the high sanction of the Court, is not enough for Mr. Fitzgibbon. " I am," he is good enough to inform sham, "an ardent man in a high degree— too much so, I must confess, but I cannot help it any snore than I can help sleeping (I);" and so, with characteristic impetuosity, he hastens to repeat his regrets. Mr. Fitzgibbon laments—deplores. Mr. Fitzgibbon "cannot say he is satisfied with what took place yesterday." Mr. Fitzgibbon "is not satisfied, bemuse he thinks that justice was not done to the Attorney. General as a lawyer and as a gentleman. Ilow con siderate of Mr. Fitzgibbon ! " lie placed himself," adds Mr. Fitzgibbon, "in a moment of irritation, in a false position, which did not or ought not to belong to him." "lam in 3 sails. tied, because I felt, and still feel, that what I said pressed upon a temper which cannot be helped by the Attorney-General no me re than the air he breathes." Charity itself I—forgiving, candid, generous, enduring charity! But it reminds us a little of a well. known Joe Miller. " Ma'am," said a countrywoman of ours to a sharp Frenchwoman, " I hear you go about saying I'm a fool 7" " Oh, que non, Madame !" was the apologetic reply, " I never, never say thing so impoli. - I hare often heerd it say." Mr. Fitz. gibbon's balm has much the same healing quality as that furnished by the Frenchwoman. It is very good of him—extremely so—to apologise; but it might have been thought to show better taste if , he had done so for himself Moue, and not for the Attorney-Gene. ral. We certainly do not envy Mr. Smith his " false position," from which tis unaided efferts will not soon extricate him. We have only to hope, for his own sake, that he has learnt to write no more three-cornered notes; for ours, that he will not have oc. casion to do so in the service of the public.— Tinzes.

Her Majesty, and his Royal Highness were conducted to the State coach .by the Lord Chamberlain and the Vice-Chamberlain.

The Royal procession then quitted the Palace, the Queen's Marshalmen, two and two; the Queen's Footmen in State liveries; and a party of the Yeo men of the Guard, preceding the State. coach, which was drawn by eight cream-coloured horses.

Her Majesty and Prince Albert, attended by the Royal suite, returned to Buckingham Palace, at ten minutes before three o'clock, and were received by the Lord Chamberlain and the Vice-Chamberlain. The Yeomen of the Guard lined the Grand Hall. Mr. Geo. Philip Lee, the Lieutenant, and Mr. Ellerthorp, Clerk of the Cheque, were present. The Queen's Guard was on duty on the Palace Lawn, and was composed of the Coldstream Guards, and, with the band of the regiment, received her Majesty with the usual honours. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent arrived at her residence, Clarence House, St. James's, shortly before twelve o'clock yesterday, from Frogmore Lodge.

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. TI3IES.—The Queen's speech has been composed on a principle which heti of late years come • into vogue, both in this country and on the continent—viz., of avoiding the introduction of, topics which might provoke debate or prevent an unanimous vote-ja principle which has at least the merit of saving the time of the House from being unnecessarily squandered • upon premature speeches and. flint less dissertation. With this view, therefore. the speech delivered yesterday by the Queen diligently eschews every subject which could create diversity of feeling,, and contains only such allusions to public affairs as could neither give offence nor excite a contest. There could be but one feeling, either in or out of Parliament, with respect to the friendly relations between England and France ; no one could but rejoice at the happy conclusion of the negotiations with China ; and no one could fail to applaud that unselfish and high-minded policy which has opened the Chinese trade to every nation Whateverof difference of opinion might exist as o Europe.the justice or expedience of the Sindiaii war, few would be unwilling to share in the tribute of praise paid to the valour of our •troops and the genius of their Coin mender. There are very opposite and very strong opinions in the country on the question of commercial restrictions. But the present state of trade is a notorious and a cheering fact. No mail, whatever might be his theory of commercial policy, would refuse to join in ex pressions of thankfulness for the revival of industrial employment and the increase of remuneration. And we believe that there will be found very few persons who will convert the excess of the revenue over the expenditure into a national grievance. Reference to general Irish politics is properly deprecated during the judicial inquiry now pending in Dublin ; and the subjects of county registration and of the relation between landlord and tenant in that country, as well as the Bank charter in England, are noticed merely by way of prelude to future consideration, and so as to avoid the necessity of discussion or opposition. On the whole, therefore, the speech may be pro nounced to be of a negative character; and for this, which to us appears a virture, we doubt not but that it will be principally cen sured. It intimates no plait of Ministerial conduct—it discloses no scheme of legislation—it is almost wholly retrospective. It tells people what they know, rather than that which they wish to learn. It passes over some subjects which might have been reasonably in troduced. It says nothing of Wales—nothing of the corn-laws. Yet, silent as it is on these points—wisely, as we think, avoiding a pre mature and prolix debate—it has•given an opportunity to the 3linister to announce his intention on the corn-law question. He has declared his resolution not to alter, repeal, or modify the existing law. This decla ration will lull, if it does not extinguish, doubt and perplexity. The Mi nister has, as we foretold on Wednesday, spoken out on the important question by which men's minds are now chiefly agitated. His an nouncement will reanimate the spirits of one, and stimulate the exertions of another, party. The battle which hasn been carried on for months In the provinces will again be fought in Parliament, if not with decisive results, certainly with desperate energy. There is now no "via media" left for the adherents of the Cabinet ; no concession proposed, no conciliation allowed ; their leader tells them that he has taken his ground ; and those who know him best must feel that he would not have spoken as he has done, without reckoning the ' strength of his forces, and the chances of immediate success. That that success will extend beyond the present session, we dare not anticipate. 11ERALD.-11 will be seen by our Parliamentary report that Sir Robert Peel has In a single emphatical sentence dissipated all the direct falsehoods, and all the false surmises of the alarmists of the . - last five months. The Right lion. Baronet took the earliest oppor tunity to declare, in terms the most distinct and unequivocal, that "IT Is NOT THE INTENTION OF THE GOVERNMENT TO. INTERFERE IN ANY WAY WITH THE EXISTING CORN-LAWS." The announcement was received with loud cheers by the great majority of the House, and it will be welcomed with equal cordiality by at least five-sixths of the people. Why such: a declaration should excite so strong a feeling must be answered by those, whether Whigs, Radicals, or pro fessing Conservatives—there were too many of the last class engaged in the disgraceful work—who have employed the whole of the recess in misleading the public mind upon the important question now set at rest. Their objects were, no doubt, sordid and selfish. Some wished to swell the funds of "the League " by anticipating victory—some had their corn jobbing speculations to aid by the mis representation —some (and they were of all parties) sought to damage the Ministry, by creating distrust among its supporters ; but what ever the motives of the dealers in falsehood, they have been guilty of a great crime against the public. It is no light matter to excite fears which, in many cases of individuals, have led to loss and ruin; and which, as far as they prevailed, could not but tend to repress the enterprise and.activity of that class of the community which must ultimately supply the wealth, as directly it supplies the food of the people. Sir Robert Peel has acted with his characteristic wisdetn and promptitude in dispelling these pernicious fears at the earliest opportunity open to him ; but his early interposition diminishes nothing of the guilt of those whose profligate contempt of truth made such interposition necessary. The public, if it consult Its own se curity, will mark and remember its late misleaders, and learn how in future to treat their assertions of the designs of the Government. POST.—The Prime Minister has made his declaration on the corn , laws. Our readers may, perh4s, suppose that he was interrogated ' on the subject by some county Member. This, hoWever, was not the case—it was in answer to the observations of Mr. JoSeph llume•and Lord John Russell that Sir Robert Peel twice stated, in his most em phatic tones, that her Majesty's Government have not contemplated, and do not contemplate, any alteration in the present law s w hi c h re gulate the duties upon the import of foreign grain. So much for the success of all the agitation, all the speeches, and all the subscriptions of the Anti-Corn-law League! The Minister did not, on the present occasion, qualify his statement by restricting it to the existing ses sion. lie did, indeed, say that it would be a desertion of their proper duty to the Crown if Ministert were to say that, at no time, and un der no circumstances, would they consent to an alteration of the exist hig corn-laws ; but then he returned to his former text, that her Ma jesty's Ministers have not contemplated, and do not contemplate, any alteration of these laws. Mr: Joseph Hume, in a long, tedious, straggling mass of verbal rubbish, which it would be a misnomer to call a speech, took notice that, in 1:41, when the late Ministry pro posed an alteration of 114 corn-lime, Sir Robert Peel not only ob jected that such an important measure should have been brought for ward without any previous notice; in her Majesty's - speech at the Opening of Parlitunent, but argued from that omission that the mea sure was all afterthought, and could not have been intended when the session commenced. The Minister said, that the - Member for Mon trose was quite right in the reference ho dreW from the absence of any mention of . the corn-laws in the Queen's speech, and as to the other point it is hard to say, added the Right Ron. Baronet, what it is IstrossiaLE for a man to do. At • this the llou,se laughed very heartily, the Minister joining in the Merriment, and presently afterwards stating, in a tone half emphatic and half joct litr, that if the majority in the country should conto to the deliberate opinion that a fixed duty upon foreign torn was the best policy to be adopted, and if it should become necessary to.proposo such a plan to the douse, he was rather of opinion that the Noble Lord opposite (Lad J. Russell), and not himself, would be the proposer of that plan. What does our potent friend, the " Times," say to this ? Our readers will not fail to observe ' that, how ever satisfactory may have been Sir Robert Peel's declaration that he does not contemplate any further " concession" to the free trade agitators, there was . much hi hit observations, and especially in Ins agreement with the abstract principles of the Whig leader, which we cannot regard with approbation. We confess, however, . that, writing as we do immediately after having listened to the speech of Sir Robert Peel, •we are unwilling to pronounce a decisive opinion upon those parts of his address which appeared to us to be of at least a questionable character. The declaration about the corn laws gives us at least a breathing time, of which we shall take ad vantage before we offer a deliberete judgment upon the new appear ance of affairs. CHROXICLE.—It cannot be ,said, that the Boy al Speech with which Parliamenf was opened'yeSterday disappoints expectation. It is just what we had ventured to anticipate. It tells what everybody knew before it was spoken, but leaves untold what everybody was anxious to know,,ldinisters wished, properly enough, to avoid dis cussion, andihe spCech was therefore formed with a view not to provoke it. Topics of discussion are no doubt suggested, but the necessity of taking tliemtln immediately was obviated by Ministers indicating an intention of :bringing them, at- an early dny, o more formally under consideration.— !rims, notice of a Motion for a_ v un t _ er f thanks to the Sinde army was given :Or the 12th of Februar.l, d amendment. por tion of Sinde escaped ll'om being made the subject of an cover of which the paragraph announcing the annexation of a por the frendl' rla: A confident holm expressett,.touuded alley on THE THEATRES. DRURY-LANE. Her Majesty and Prince Albert, attended by a numerous suite, honoured Drury-lane Theatre with their presence last evening. The performance selected for this auspicious occasion consisted of lialfe's opera, the a Bohemian Girl," and the Pantomime. Her Majesty .frequently testified her approbation of the music, and expressed her self delighted with several of the melodies which are intersper ed throughout the opera. The ebullitions of loyalty were both loud and frequent, even to the interruption of the performances; but these were checked by the sudden departure of her Majesty at the close of the opera. 11cr Majesty and the Prince, however, re-entered the box at the commencement of the panto mime, and this re-appearance excited the audience to a fresh explo sion of cries for " God save the Queen." At length her Majesty acceded to the cordial manifestations, and came forward to bow hex acknowledgments to the vast crowds who thronged every portion of the theatre. Her Majesty and the Prince laughed heartily at Payne'd impersonation of Carlotta Grisi, and retired shortly after the salta tory display. Her Majesty appeared in excellent health and spirits, and did not seem at all affected by her fatigue at the opening of the Parliament. LYCEUM - Tobin's Comedy, the !`lloneymoon" was revived last night, at the Lyceum, on which occasion Mr. Harvey Tuckett undertook the cha racter of Rolando. Mr. Tuckett is evidently suffering from a severe cold, and may, by careful study, and practice in the provinces, over come a few defects under which he at present labours ; ho unques tionably possesses many qualifications which aro essential for au actor, and has both self-possession and intelligence ; and although we cannot altogether commend his' performance in the character.Of Rolando, last evening, it was a.s light to darknesS, compared with the Insufferable pretension, modified by excessive awkwardness, with which Mr. Wentworth alternately howled and mumbled through the part of Duke Aranza. The part of Juliana was entrusted to Miss Angell, the effect of whose performance was marred by her extreme timidity. Mrs. Seymour appeared as Volante.' She rattled through her part with much archness and spirit, and redelved more applause than was accorded to any other of the company; exeepting, ieeky. who, as the sham Duke, was irresistibly ludicrous. Hemming, as the Count 3fontalban, was excellent, and Hiss Jaue 3lordaunt looked far better as the Page than when she appeared in the lagt scene with her hoarse husband. TATE'S COMMERCIAL ARITHMETIC, a New and much Improved Edition.—This system of arithmetic is prin cipally- practical, and is calculated to be of very great utility' in all branches of trade and commerce. .We recommend it to the attention of masters of academies, who superintend the eddcation of young persons intended for trade, or to enter into the Counting-house. The knowledge of the stocks, of insurance, of book-keeping, of arbitrations of exchange, mer chants and bankers' accounts, &c., will be very much facili tated by the study of the very perspicuous rules contained in this volume.—Mr. Tate's Kev (which is now first pub» lished) is a work of incalculable utility to teachers. .. - CLOSE OF HOLIDAY2.—Now that the season. of annual festivity is about to terminate, and the respective boarding-schools be re-instated by the busy throng ofyouth ful aspirants, the personal comfort and attractions of - whom become naturally an object with friends and relatives of great solicitude, Rowland's Macassar Oil, for accelerating the growth and for preserving and beautifying the hair; Rowland's Kalydor, for preserving the skin and complexion, and removing cutaneous eruptions; and Rowland's Odonto, ;,.octtn.eges miiiyeit by for beautifying the Teeth, add preserving the Gums, are universally considered indispensable in the requisite accom paniments of the decorative repository. The august patron age conceded brour gracious Queen, and-the - several So vereigns of Europe, together with the Beauties which adorn the circles of princely and regal magnificence ; and the con firmation by experience of the infallible efficacy of these creative renovating specifics, have characterised them with perfection, and given them a celebrity unparalleled. Ask for " Rowland's" articles. All others are spurious imitations.
