MR. HOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52, Fleet-street, has introduced an entirely new de scription of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from the ori nals by the closest observer ; they will never change colour or decay, and will be found superior to any teeth ever before used. This method does not require the extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is gua ranteed to restore articulation and mastication.

BRIGHT AT BIRMINGHAM. BIRMINGHAM, Tuesday Night. This evening Mr. John Bright and Mr. Dixon, the members for the borough, addressed, in accord ance with their annual custom, a numerous meeting of their canstituents in the Town Hall. Mr. John Jaffray presided, and briefly opened the pro ceedings. Mr. JOHN BRIGHT was received with several rounds of most enthusiastiB cheering from his friends and supporters, but as soon as this had subsided it was apparent that their political opponents also mus tered in strong force, and it was nearly 20 minutes before the hon. gentleman was allowed to proceed with his address. The disturbers of the proceed ings were eventually ejected after several sharp struggles, and the hon. gentleman proceeded to say :—Gentlemen,—From what has been said by our chairman, and from what t have heard since I came to Birmingham, and from what I have seen in your newspapers, I am aware that there is at this moment a subject of great irritation which is greatly disturbing the feelings of your town. I did not come here for the purpose of discuss ing it, because to my mind it seems hardly needful to discuss it, the grievance is so great, and the irri tation is so sensibly felt in every street in your town in which the newly-enfranchised. or to be enfran chised, electors are living. I propose, at a subse quent period of the evening, to speak a few sen tences on that point, but if you will allow me I shall now ask your attention to another subject, which, though not so immediately pressing upon you, yet has pressed very much upon my mind, and has compelled me to discuss it to-night. From the moment when I accepted the invitation to this meet ing, although I had previously intended to discuss some general topics, I felt my mind driven or drawn irresistibly to that which has recently been declared by high authority to be the great question of the hour. Now, don't let any man in Birmingham im agine that he has no interest in what is called the Irish question. (Cheers.) I will undertake to dis cuss it in a manner that I hope will not offend the feelings of any man in this audience. It is a question which now excites great feeling, and which will excite great heartburning pro bably before it is settled. It is a question which will be the cause, in all probability, of the fall of Ministries, and it may be of the dissolution of Parliament. Whether we look At the present or at the ftiture, to my mind it far transcends in import ance any other question that I could discuss to night. Perhaps many of you have read a speech that was recently delivered by a member of the Cabinet, the son of the Prime Minister, at a great banquet that was given to him and to others in the city of Bristol. In that speech there were three things stated. If there be any man here who thinks that his opinions are utterly at variance with mine, I ask him the more to listen to what I am about to say. Lord Stanley, in that speech, declared that the Irish question was the question of the hour. He spoke of the condition of Ireland in these words. He spoke of the painful, the dangerous, and to us, in appearance at least, the discreditable state of things,which continues to exist in Ireland. He said, " We have a strange and perplexing problem to solve ;" he spoke of the state of Ireland as a miserable state of things, and then, as if in despair, he turned to his friends around him, and he said, " If we look for a remedy, who is there that can give an in telligible answer? Ireland is the question of the hour," And then he gave them this advice : having nothing to offer as a remedy himself, be said, "Don't let us call in quacks, don't let us fly to des perate remedies because the doctors cannot find out an instant and perfect cure for a disease which is of a long standing." Well, it is a disease much more than 100 years old, and I think if the doctors have not already found out anything about it, or what will cure it, it may even be wiser to try a quack. (Laughter and cheers.) In that speech this Cabinet Minister spoke very vaguely on the subject of compensation to tenants for improve ' meats, and he charged a considerable number of the tenants with wishing to become possessed of the land without paying for it, which was not a very complimentary suggestion on his part ; and he said further, which was a curious thing, consider ing what happened during the last session of Par liament, they would yield nothing to noise and to menace—(cheers)--they would do only that which was satisfactory to their consciences--(laughter)--- and he wound up this portion of his speech with this declaration—" We will not allow the British Em pire to be pulled to pieces in virtue of any fantas tic theories. Ireland and England are inseparable now and for ever." Let me ask you for a moment to look at two or three matters of detail, and to see how completely this Cabinet Minister, son of the Prime Minister, is justified in the statements he , has made. For two y ears we h ave h a d i n I re l an d a Suspension of the Habeas Corpus Act. Well, that means this, that any man may be taken to prison by the warrant of the Lord Lieutenant, and he may be kept there as long as the Habeas Corpus Act is suspended, as long as the Lord Lieutenant may think proper. I don't say at all, I never have said, that there may not arise emergencies in the most free country where it may be necessary to sus pend the law for the sake of the preservation of the public peace ; but this is a matter of frequent re currence in Ireland, and we have had during the last two years, and even for a much longer period, as you all know, a condition of chronic insurrection in that part of the kingdom. We have had more than that—not only attacks which were of the na ture of open war, but we have bad throughout the country, and in parts of England, a conspiracy of very secret and apparently of a reckless character, and as the remit of that conspiracy we have seen some violent outrages, such as this country for a very lon g period has been a s t ranger to. (Hear, hear.) We have had, as you all know, also great alarm ; the chief magistrates of your towns, the mayors, a nd the ordinary mag i strates have been in some places in a state of p an i c. Y ou have had troops moved from one part of the king dom to the other, and armed ships patrolling around the coast of Ireland, almost as if the ki ng d om were in a state of war. (Hear, hear.) More than this, you have had special commissions in Ireland and England trying men for the gravest offences ; your police and your soldiers, and even the gallows, have been brought into an unusual and unhappy acti vity, and at this very meeting at Bristol th e H ome Secretary himself admitted that he had become little more of late than a Commissioner of Police, so much was the disturbance brought continually the northern residenc e o f th e before him; and even Queen at Balmoral and the southern residence of the Queen in the Isle of Wight, both these places have been, no doubt, by order of the Home-office, specially guarded during the period of alarm. (Hear, hear.) And more than all this, in Ireland and in Canada—in Ireland to keep the peace, in Canada to resist threatened invasion from Irishmen in the United States, we are maintaining at least 50,000 armed men paid for out of the taxes of the United Kingdom. (Cries of " Shame.") 'What I think I might complain of is this, that the Cabinet Mini s te r of whom I have spoken had no remedy whatsoeve r to offer to the people of this great Bristol banquet. All that he says is this—that he will not allow the empire to be pulled to pieces ; but I think if any man is determined to take that course he should at least be able to point out upon what principle the empire can be kept united. Another member of Parliament—not a general supporter of the Go vernment, but sitting on the Opposition side of the House, making a speech the other day at Shef field—declared, in the most emphatic manner, that while there was breath in his body and blood in his veins lie would oppose any kind of separation of the two countries. Bear in mind that this gentle man four or five years ago was the most determined supporter of the slaveholders, that he went so far as to offer himself as an envoy between the Empe ror of the French and the Parliament of England with the object of bringing about the recognition as a distinct State of the slaveholding Confederacy. There was every kind of slander of the most offen sive description uttered by him against the people of the Northern States, who determined that their Republic should not be pulled in pieces, and now he says as long as there is brtath in his body and blood in his veins there shall be no sepa ration between Great Britain and Ireland. (Cheers and laughter.) I need not tell you that I am not here to-night to argue that question of separation, for it is quite unnecessary ; but I venture to say this—that the Cabinet Ministers who have no remedy whatsoever to offer, but merely passages of a speech of defiance like this, and the partisan sup porters of a Government who can speak such pas sages as those I have quoted, they are not true friends of union, but, in my opinion, they are the promoters of disaffection and separation. (Cheers.) I must remind them, as I will remind you, although, no doubt, my object may be misconstrued and misre presented,—l may remind you that the question of which they have spoken is not a question outside the range of discussion. There is a great prece dent in our history. After the unibn with Scot land, 160 years ago, a proposition was submitted to Parliament for the repeal of the Union with Scotland ; that proposition was rejected in a full house by a majority of only two ; therefore, there is a precedent set ir. a high quarter if any person think it his duty to discuss the question of separation. (Cheers.) Besides, the empire was powerful before the Legislative Union with Ireland. 4t was power ful in colonisation, powerful in war, powerful in commerce ; and you must bear in mind that the Irish Parliament was a Parliament nearly, if not quite, as national as ours, and as sacred to Ireland as the Parliament of England is to England. The mode of its extinction forms one of the foulest stories in the annals of this country. Force and fraud and corruption of an unparalleled character were the means by which the extinction of the Irish Parliament was brought about. Although I have not a word to say in favour of the separation of the two coantries—(cheers)—yet I will not hesitate to say this, that the Irish people never consented to the Legislative Union, and that their right to pro test against it and their right to seek for restoration of their Parliament, if they think it would be ad vantageous to them, has not been, and cannot be, destroyed. (Cheers.) However, the question be fore us is this—it is a fair question—Can we so deal with Ireland as to make union peaceable and inevit able through its obvious advantages to both coun tries? They are in Ireland really the same people as ourselves. We all speak the same language, we read the same books—and the Irish write a great number of books which we read in England—our interests are the same, our family connexions are wonderfully intertwined, and, as is proved by the harmony which exists iu different parts of the con tinent of Europe, there is nothing in the difference of religion between Catholics and Protestants, if men will act in a just and Christian spirit, to pre vent the most perfect harmony between two coun tries. (Cheers.) Now, with regard to this ques tion of the legislative union, I shall make only one more observation, which is this, that I shall never- , consent myself to any measure which would dis turb legislative union till it is proved that in Eng land statesmanship is absolutely dead, and till it is proved in Ireland that right and justice have failed to influence mankind. (Cheers.) The Minister of whom I have spoken said there were two great subjects for Parliament and controversy with regard to Ireland—viz., the Church and the land. But these questions are much more than questions of Parliament and controversy. These are questions on which may depend the duration or decay of the Empire. These two questions are the beginning and the end of this terrible Irish difficulty. (Cheers.) Scotland is a nation, and I think, on the whole, that the Scotch are rather more national than the Irish. They are very ready always to assert the virtues and the greatness of Scotland in every part of the world ; but Scotland is a member of a great nation, with which she is content. Well, Ireland is also a nation ; but I want to know why we can't make Ireland also conte n t t o be a portion of a greater nation, and to take her share in that greater renown which attaches to a greater Power. I believe as much as I believe that I am here that all this can be done. There is nothing that a Parliament in Dublin can do that the Imperial Parliament cannot do if it tries to do it ; there is nothing with regard to the true interests of the people that an independent Irish representation could do which a Parliament in London cannot do ; there is nothing which Ireland can do for herself, if she were a part of the American Union, which our statesmen ill London, if right and just, cannot also do for Ireland. (Cheers.) Suppose we had a Parliament in Dublin that was elected by the free and equal vote of the householders of the Irish nation, does anybody believe that there would exist in that country an institution such as there is now under the name of the Protestant Established Church? (Cheers.) Let nobody suppose that I am hostile to a Protestant Church, or Protestantism. I am as you know a Protestant of Protestants. (Laughter and cheers.) If any man will say with such a Parliament in Dublin the Irish people would permit that political State Church to exist, he must have this idea of Ireland and Irish people, he must believe that Ireland is nothing better than a huge lunatic asylum. (Loud cheers and laughter.) Then, why should we, the people of England, being the most powerful section of the three king doms, why should our Parliament in London assist in supporting that Church against the known opi nion and the thousand repeated protests of the great majority of the Irish people? (Cheers.) The Cnurch has been maintained there for the sake of building up in time past what was considered the English interest. A supremacy party was esta blished with the idea of preserving the union with England, and it has become in our time, more than other institutions, that which imperils that union. I believe that nobody who can have any kind of claim for thinking on the question will say that we, the people of England, the Parliament of Great Britain, can pretend any longer to govern Ireland on the principles, and in accordance with the pre judices and the fashions of that supremacy party. (Cheers.) The case has gone far beyond argument —it has gone altogether beyond the ,resistance of the tone or the tinkering of the Whigs. (Cheers and laughter.) It is a question which the people of England themselves must no longer leave to ped dling statesmen, but one on which they must express an opinion whenever there comes an election, when we shall have the pleasure of inviting a larger num ber to express their opinions on public questions than in past times. They must express an over whelming opinion in favour of common sense and common justice in the government of Ireland. I said the case has gone beyond argument. The other day I saw, I think, the latest estimate that has been made of the property of the Irish Church. It was estimated as a principal sum of not less than £13,000,000 sterling. Now, I cannot tell you how much £13,000,000 sterling is. I can write it down in figures, and, as you hear, I can speak it from my lips; but I can give to no man here any accurate I notion of what is meant by £13,000,000 sterling. But what is the section of the Irish people into whose hands that vast sum, with its interest every year, is given for religious purposes and teaching? Why, the whole Protestant population in Ireland, and, I suppose, in Ireland no more than in England —for every Protestant does not get much religious teaching, and does not go much to church—(laugh ter)—but in Ireland the Protestant Church popu lation is just a little over, and I am not quite sure whether it is at all over, the population of two towns like Birmingham. What would you think in Birmingham of this great city and the city of Manchester, or their population, and nobody else, having awarded to them this vast sum of £13,000,000 and the interest from it annually, under the pretence of religious teaching ? And I believe it is not found in Ireland that the Protestants are a bit better religiously taught than either Presbyterians or Catholics. In point of fact, it is a huge political job, which ought never to have existed, and which, having existed, ought long ago to have been abo lished, together with another which is somewhat akin to it. For Parliament gives the interest of more than a million of money, being £40,000 in every year out of the taxes, to the Presbyterian Church in Ireland as a bribe, that it may not say anything about the £13,000,000 which is given to the Protestant Church. Now I have no idea of saying anything against the Protestauts of Ireland --their present circumstances are notTioi their own creating:--and still less shall — I say anything against the ministers of their Church, for I doubt not there is to be found among them a fair proportion of energetic Christian men, finding themselves in ad verse and unfortunate circumstances, but still pro bably labouring honestly in the places to which they have been appointed—(cheers) —but of the institu tion, as a political institution, I will venture to say that the time of its downfall has nearly come— (cheers)—and that it is essential for the good government of Ireland, for the tranquillity of that country, for the maintenance of the union with England in peace—it is essen tial that every trace of Protestant Church supre macy should be for ever abolished. (Loud cheers.) I recollect when O'Connell was in the House of Commons that on many occasions I sat by him. I asked him on one occasion if he would write me an autograph for a lady relative of mine, who wished to preserve it. He went into the lobby, and, taking a pen, he wrote these four lines. Speaking of Ire land, he says—l don't know that the lines were his own composition 4, Within that land was many a malcontent, " Who cursed the tyranny to which he bent; " That land full many a wringing despot saw " Who worked his tyranny in form of law." (Cheers.) Well, all this, which has now passed away, all this came from England, was inflicted upon them by the English Parliament and Govern ment, and by their own Parliament which was a Protestant Parliament; and therefore is it to be wondered at that there has grown up a bitter feeling of hostility, and that happy union between the two countries has been all along impossible to exist ? But all this would be changed if the measures that I would suggest—measures, in my opinion, mode rate and just—were passed,—all this would be changed, and the memory of the penal laws would pass from out the minds of coming generations, and there would be left only this other question to which Lord Stanley referred—the great economical ques tion of the land. (The hon. gentleman then resumed his seat amid loud cheers.) A musical dog in New Albany, Indiana, plays on the piano and howls. There are also "dogs" at large in England, unfortunately, who play on the piano and howl. —The Orchestra. THEFT OF £157 NEAR ACCRINGTON. At the Accrington petty sessions, yesterday, Richard Cun litre, night watchman, was charged with stealing "±TV7 10s from - his emplo3-era, Mtwrs. Nichols and Brindle, cotton manufacturers, Baxenden. It appeared that a clerk on Friday night locked up the safe, leaving iu it the sum of £157 10s, and he put the key in the pocket of his coat, which he left in another room for the night. Early the following morning he found that the whole of the money baa peen ab stracted. He suspected the priso ner , and had him apprehended, but the money has not been traced to his possession. Prisoner was discharged. Tii CLERKENWELL OUTRAGE—We are given to understand that the Crown is in possession of evidence of a character to lead to the belief that the recent attempt to destroy the House of Detention at Clerk enwell was instigated by "Colonel" Burke, one of the prisoners now in Warwick Gaol awaiting his trial for treason-felony. The probability, there fore, is that the Crown w ill i nc l u d e hi m in any indictment which may be framed against the Dcsmonds, Barrett, Ann Justice, and others now in custody, for wilful murder, arising out of the catastrophe. In connection with this sub ject it may also be added that Mullany, the last ap prover, has been admitted as a witness for the Crown in consequence of a document having been traced to him containing references to a certain very high per sonage, and which document it is not considered de sirable should be given in evidence at the trial, either against Mullany himself or any of the other prisoners. It has in consequence been destroyed.—Morning Post. THE BISHOPRIC OF NATAL.—The Rev. Mr. Macrorie preached in St. James's Church, Accrington, on eulidoty evenin g . Before co mmenc i ng hi s sermon , which was founded upon the words, "For the truth's sake" (2 John, 2), he said h e h a d to ask the indul gence of his congregation whilst he discussed from his own paint of view the circumstances which had a bearing upon his own conduct and motives in reference to the bishopric of Natal. Mr. Macrorie observed that deadly error had been , taught by one holding one of the highest positions in the Church of Christ in South Africa. The person so teaching had been brought to trial before the only tribunal which the society known as the Church in South Africa, retoguised as having spiri tual jurisdiction over it, and that tribunal had deposed him from his spiritual office. Mr. Macrorie then referred to the resolution passed by the clergy of the diocese of Natal re specting the appointment of a successor to Dr. Colenso, and to the necessity there was that the consecration of the person selected should be speedily performed. At the last moment, however, he said it was soddenly discovered that it was doubtful whether the law of the land would permit such a service to be held. The objectors surely might have put forth their objections when there would have ~een time to meet them, and not at the latest hour. The difficulties raised in plain winds amounted to this :—That some lawyers—for other lawyers he knew took a different view—thought it would be illegal under the Act of Conformity for a clergy man of the Established Church to allow the ser vice of consecration to be performed in any building under his control. He contended that the enactment in question should only apply to the Church as estab lished by law—which the Church in the colonies was not,—and that the rubric was infringed every day. It was at once felt by those who desired the con secration to take place that all appearances of evil should be avoided. Failing England, Scotland was next fixed upon. The public press had informed his congregation of the reasons why the service had not been performed in Scotland. The_ Archbishop of Canterbury had counselled delay , and therefore the responsibility incurred rested With the Scotch bishops. The rev. gentleman then.proceeded with his sermon, in which he recounted what he termed the errors promulgated by Dr. Colenso.

On Tuesday evening Mr. Stansfeld, M.P., delivered a lecture at St. James's Hall, Piccadilly, on " The political future of the working classes." Mr. Beales presided. Mr. STANSFELD maintained that the special subjects requiring the concurrence of the working classes for legis lative settlement were : First, the licensing system, which required :•estrictive legislation, which depended for its efficiency on being properly proportioned to the require ments of the masses, and on being properly supported ; secondly, the homes of the masses of the population, with regard to which the hands of those dealing with the subject required to be strengthened, the powers of munici palities required to be increased, and a stringent law required to be passed to prevent dwellings being built for no other view than selfish individual gain. The third ques tion was the administration of the door law. Professional vagrancy would have to be dealt with with a firmer hand, and the deserving poor with a gentler and a freer hand. The great difficulty in the administration of the poor law had hitherto been a want of discrimination, encouraging that professional and hereditary pauperism which was the curse of the country. So long as the poor laws were enacted and administered by the higher classes, the pro blem was incapable of solution ; but the co-operation of the working classes would enable Parliament to exercise a truer and wiser discrimination in the future to adminis ter those laws with greater charity and yet with greater firmness and success. With regard to the question of the relations of capital and labour, with reference to possible legislative enactment, it was simply impossible for Par. liament to enter -en ita-vensideration without the aid of _ the working classes. Might they not hope that, with that aid, there might be found in the first reformed Par. liament a court of arbitration, conciliation, and appeal which might bring the country to conclusions on this great, serious, and important subject matter which would meet the approval of enlightened opinion in all classes of the community? Them were two questions remaining of the greatest national importance—namely, national edti. cation and the condition of Ireland. In regard to the latter, our attitude towards Deland had been that of a conquering race. It was true we had com pensated for some of the legislation of former years ; but the fact remained that, in the minds of the Irish' people, our propinquity, overwhelming wealth, numbers, and power kept Ireland down in a state of hopeless inferiority, against which there was natural reac tion. The first necessity for a cure was to recognise and respect the individuality of Ireland. It was obvious that the working classes could do good service in this matter, for they desired nothing save that measure of jus tice which had been extended to Scotland. Ireland re acted against the past, but the working classes could go with unsuspected lands, and offer an alliance, on grounds of equal right and justice ; and he could not but believe that Ireland would accept that offer. Political honesty and expediency suggested the wisdom of a cJmprehensive measure of reform for Ireland. If there was one thing more than another which might turn the tide of popular opinion in that oountry, it would be household suffrage, a radical redistribution of seats, and the ballot. The existence yf the Irish Church wasan insult and a degradation to that country, and working men would give their influence to such a measure of justice to Ireland, as the establishment of the religious equality of all sects. As regarded the land question, that was complicated ; but whatever, on the initiative of the representatives of Ireland, was pro posed with the general acceptation of their country ought to be accorded. But for the advent of the working classes to political power he should have despaired of Ireland. He looked, however, to the union of the masses in both countries to create a living and healthy union ; and nothing would do the working classes more credit in the page of history and make their efforts more appreciated than being able re unite England in the bonds of good fellowship with the sister isle. The hon. gentleman dealt last with the subject of national education, the progress of which, during the last six months, in public opinion proved the benefit of the approaching enfranchisement of the working classes. Even those who objected to popular progress began to say it was time to teach their masters to read. He placed little value on the opposition of the National Society, because they did not u nderstand the signs of the times. The nation was not going to wait to suit their convenience, for it was determined to complete its educa. tional system. The working men of the towns h a d entirely made up their—minds on the question, and had determined that the advantages of education should be carried without delay within reach of every cottage door. Dealing then with the question of compulsory attendance, the hon. gentleman said the compulsion would - only have to be actually applied in the case of a small " residuum " of the population. Then laying down the dicta that there was not such a thing as non education ; that all children were inevitably educated for evil or for good ; that every child had the rightato good education, and that it was the duty of the parent to enforce it, he said that a measure of compulsion might have been strong for a class Parliament, but that it was within the easy reach of the political power now conferred on working men. lie asked whether the audience, as a typical assembly, desired a measure to enforce the rights o their children. The tumultuous cheering with which this query was responded to satisfied the hon. gentleman, who said he should take that answer to another assembly. In conclusion, the hon. gentleman exhorted working men to take their place within the con • stitution of the country, in that united, enlarged work shop of the nation, and to do their work. The materials were before them ; the tools were at their hand. Let them betake themselves to the work with the consciousness that in this new era dawning upon us it was their duty, and it would be their glory and opportunity if they pleased, to impress upon •it a wise dire6tion, to give a new impetus to our national life, to breathe into it something of their own young spirits and fresh minds, to give new vitality, fresh vigour, and to give an added safety to the State. (Loud cheers.)
