MR. HOWARD, Surgeon-Dentist, 52, Fleet-
r„, _ street, has introduced an entirely new description of ARTI-
'_VAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so
Ze"ectlY resemble the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from
"Wive by the closest observer; they will never change colour or
decay,,,._,s and will be found very superior to any teeth ever before used.
'lll method does not require the extraction of rosts, or any painful
oPeration, and will support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is
guaranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed teeth
rendered sound and useful in mastication.-52, Fleet-street. At

ripHE NORTH SIDE of SEBASTOPOL to be
a. TAKEN—The plans of operation not being made public, but
a general impression existing that successful measures will soon be
adopted, it is the north and wintery side of the Russian fortifications
which will next fall before the Allies, and furnish another instance
of military skill and perseverance. The attack on the south has
Bacceeded, and the surrender of the forts has revealed valuable mill.
tary provisions. By the force of comparison every one will perceive
the analogy between these circumstances and the business of E.
MOSES and SON. The success of their summer campaign has been
fully attested, and has revealed the vast commercial forces they
command. The light, the waterproof, the attractive, and the gen-
tlemanly garments, which have been so approved, have risen above
all criticism, and left every one vocal in praise of the generalship of
E. Mesas and Sox. The Autumn and Winter season approaches ;
the opponents of personal cdmfort must again be combatted ; the
resources are ample and the arrangements complete.

als are seasonable, the designs popular, the effect highly satisfactory,
comfort secured in every way by these garments, and by thousands

quered with superlative Dress, Hosiery, Boots and Shoes, &c., &c.,

' Every article of Attire required by Sportsmen is furnished by E.
MosEs and Soar. Their Sporting Dress is the most comfortable and
easy. Novel in materials and design, it imparts a graceful appear-
ance and mfuntains universal approbation.

Sportsmen in the country can obtain their dress complete, in an
inimitable fit, by application for E. MOSES and Son's system of self-
Measurement, sent post free to all parts of the kingdom.
CAUTION.—E. MOSES and SON regret having to guard the
Public against imposition, having learned that the nntradesman-like
falsehood of Being connected with their Establishment," or " It':
the same conoern," has been resorted to in many instances, and fet
obvious reasons. They beg to state that they have
