TEETH.—Air. ESKELL'S INVENTION in
the construction of ARTIFICIAL TEETH has the
following advantages :—A set of teeth, of excellent work-
manship and mechanism, can be made and fitted with the
most perfect accuracy and success, in a few hours, without
of ainmastication or extraction
and of stum
art iculps a, and to answer all the purposes
tion. They are fitted without
wires or fastenings, and adapt themselves so perfectly to the
gums, that they are quite immoveable, except at the option
of the wearer. Invalids or residents in the country can ad-
just these teeth to many changes of the mowth without the
aid of a dentist. They are not so liable to injury, are always
useful, and will last a lifetime. Comfort guaranteed. Trea-

Railway and Public Companies in Parlia-

went.

Yesterday the committee, of which Mr. Beillie is the
chairman, on the proposed new railways in and around
Dublin, and which propose to do for that city what the pro-
jected new metropolitan lints will do for London, entered
on the consideration of the fourth project for that purpose,
that of the Dublin Railway, which consists of a ramifica-
tion of 12 short lines, interlacing the various existing refl..
ways, docks, canals, and quays, at a capital cost of
£650,000 and a loan of £216,000. The line Will cross the
Liffey by a bridge of three !spans. It is proposed that the
London and North Western shall enter into contracts to
work and manage the line; and as it is the first case of an
English railway proposing to work a railway in Ireland, the
railway department of the Board of Trade direct the parti-
cular attention of the committee to the subject. Yesterday
the engineering evidence occupied the committee, Mr.
Hawkshaw and Mr. Barton being examined. The Exe
Valley Railway Bill was thrown out in that committee. The
mineral traffic and general local evidence continues to oc-
cupy the attention of the Great Eastern and Northern
Junctions committee, and witnesses were examined for the
promoters by Mr. Brett, on the same subject, in Mr
Adair's committee, on the Lancashire Union Railways.
In Lord Stanley's committee the further and final con-
sideration of the Clauses in connexion with the London and
Brighton Company's bill for new works, and additional
powers was taken. In the second committee on Metro.
politan Railways. the bill for empowering the Charing.
cross Railway to take additional ground on the western
side of Dowgate-hill, and on the southern side of College-
street, for their Cannon-street City terminus, to raise
£90,000 by shares, and £30,000 by loan, to lease lands at
their City terminus for an hotel, and contribute thereto
£65,000, being unopposed, was sent down to Mr. Massey.
The bill for the proposed Great Northern and Victoria
station was withdrawn. Mr Denison, Q.C., laid before Mr
Scholefield's committee the merits of the Glasgow City
Union Railway, which proposes at a cost of £BOO,OOO, and
loan of £266,600, with power to create a 41 per cent, de-
benture stock, to unite the various lines that centre and
surround that city, and carry a bridge of five arches over
the Clyde. The bills passed before Mr. Massey included
that for the Liverpool Great Central Station, and a con-
necting line of one mile, with a capital of £500,000 and
£166,000 loan; Midland Railway, for a line of 17 miles
from Bath to Thornbury, and raise £236,000 by shares, and
£75,600 by loan; Llynvi Valley and Ograore Railways;
Mistley, Thorpe, and Walton ; Oswestry, Ellesmere, and
Whitchurch ; Riblesdale Railway ; Portpatrick Railway
(Steamboats) ; Henley in Arden Railway ; Chelsea Water ;
Swansea Harbour; Stroud Gas; Bedford Gas.
In the Lords, the case for the promoters of the North
Eastern Railway closed, and Mr. Hope Scott, Q.C., ad-
dressed the committee at great length for the opposing in-
terests. Earl Fortescue has been appointed a member of
this committee in the room of Lord Belper.
UTILISATION OF THE LONDON SEWAGE.—Yesterday the
witnesses examined in this committee, Lord R. Montagu in
the chair, were Messrs. Napier and Pope, relative to their
proposition to turn it to lucrative agricultural and ratepay-
ing diminution account, down at Maplin Sands, in Essex.
Mr. Hemans, the engineer, was also examined.
THE LONDON SUBWAYS COMMlTTEE.—Yesterday Mr.
Innis, engineer of the Pheenix Gas Compauy, Mr. Hawks-
ley, and others, were examined for the opposition to this
bill. The committee have intimated an intention of restrict.
ing the inquiry to the new streets, such as Southwark_
street and New-street, Covent-garden, where subways have
been made, without extending it to the old streets. _
