TEETH,-Mr. ESK ELL'S INVENTION in
the construction of ARTIFICIAL TEETH has the
following advantages ;--A set or teeth, of excellent work-
manship and mechanism, can be made and fitted with the
most perfect accuracy and success, in a few hours, without
pain or extraction of stumps, and to answer all the purposes
of mastication and articulation. 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 mouth without the
aid of a dentist. They are not so Liable to injury, are always
useful, and will last a lifetime. Comfort guaranteed. Trea-

been for so many ages the blood-stained bulwark of Europe,
the indefatigable ally of France. Nothing has been of any
use. Nothing has been able to overcome the inattention)
the shameful unconcern, the sluggish indifference, and ob-
stinate improvidence of contemporary Europe. She does
nos even wish to hear more of the worn-out, interdicted
subject, she wished to forget it, to drive it from her thoughts,
to avert from it her eyes, which are weary in the pursuit of
gain and pleasure. The question is cut short, the Times
has recalled its correspondents ; the curtain has dropped.
Let us change the subject.

The most compassionate, the most generous do as Agar
did, who withdrew weeping that she might not witness the
agony of her son dying with thirst in the desert. "Et abiit
seditque e regione precut quantum
protest arena jacere ;
dixit enim : Non videbo morientern pneru m."
But lo I from the midst of this frigid silence, of this-- uni-
versal indifference, one voice, and one alone, is lifted up in
answer to the cry of Poland in her agony. It is the voice
of religion, a voice plaintive, indignant, immortal. He has
spoken, who is in the eyes of all, whether friends or foes,
whether believers or unbelieaers, the highest personification
Vicar of Jesus Christ, the
of religion lwighioondiinedthfoer wmoernid. T
uponktehe
Cross, has spoken in behalf
of the sacrified nation. An E p eal which is eloquence itself
has burst in waves hurrying and breaking one upon another,
from the depth of that noble /teed, the heart of Pius IX.,
the man and the Pontiff, whose indignation and piety have
overflowed together. His is no bed of roses who makes it
his business to plead for the Catholic cause at the present
day. He must be resigned to salness of every kind, he must
expect not only outrages and contempt from without, but
wretchedness and darkness from within, " foris pugnaa intus
timores." We are all called upon,i both great and small, to
endure the disappointments, the 'allures, the defections, the
depression, the melancholy discomfitures which are equally
the lot of the most humble soldier and of the most august
representative of truth. But on the other hand, when ever
and anon truth and justice blaze forth, as lightning does
in the darkness of night, borrowing the supernatural
strength and authority of religion, what joy beyond com-
pare is kindled in the soul of the true believer, into what
transports of gratitude do Christians break forth! New
Italy, or, to speak more correctly, Piedmont, aggrandised
by proceedings which bear too close an analogy to those of
the spoilers of Poland, barely tries to feign or to affect a
cold and wordy sympathy for the great victim of that spirit
of usurpation of conquest of which the Piedmontese king-
dom has become the most guilty personification in Europe.
At heart, and in truth, all its sympathies are on the side of
Russia, who quickly recognised in the Italy of Victor
Emmanuel the ally and imitator of her wicked and plunder-
ing policy, and they who are best informed upon the sub-
ject see in the Roman question the point of unity between
St. Petersburg and Turin, The self •styled Liberal Govern-
ment which has stolen the secular patrimony of the Pope,
which day by day is throwing bishops and cardinals into
prison, which is suppressing religious order in order to con-
fiscate their patrimonies and to profane their sanctuaries,
cannot possibly assist or love, or even understand Poland

g address to the Poles on the 28th December, 1863—" Cease

tion against you." It is the weakest, the worst armed of
European Sovereigns who alone has done his duty, who
alone has fulfilled the expectations of generous

god. B mighty, by
y thusjus inticpeleaagdaingst iniquity, by truth
for Poland Pius IX,
has, without perhaps intending or thinking of it, laid before
the world the strongest argument in favour of the temporal
power of the Papacy. Never has it been more clearly proved
that sovereignty is necessary for its perfect independence.
In what other way I should like to know can his authority
be rendered free and supreme as it must be before us, as it
must be in the interest of that justice and truth of which he
is our impersonifieation ? Can you imagine a Pope a subject
or a paid vassal of the King of Italy; can you imagine him
making use of this spirited and generous language in pre-
sence of a master who is the ally or the accomplice of the
oppressor who is to be denounced, of the traitor who is to be
unveilled. * * I believe 1 may iairly say, sincerely and
calmly, that on the 24th of last April Pope Pius IX, wrote
one of the most beautiful pages in the glorious history of the
Vicar of Jesus Christ, As a Catholic and as a man I humbly
thank him for having paid this honour to our tail and to
his own divine authority. I thank him for having shown a
heart full of courage and of pity--of what, in other words,
the kings, and to speak plainly the men of our time, aro
most wanting in. They are not malicious, or at least not so
bad as they are sometimes represented to tie; but they have
neither couragejagainst the odious triumphs of evil, nor pity
for their victims. Pius IX. follows the glorious footsteps of
that great man, Pope Clement X 111., who in the 18th cen-
tury was the only potentate in Europe who protested against
the despoilers of Poland, while Voltaire, ws cannot too often
repeat it, encouraged and flattered them with all the refines
ments of a base adulation, and all the paroxysms of impla-
cable rage against the Catholic nation, which it was their
object to blot out from the land of the living. Pope Pius
IX. renews. besides, and confirms the noble attitude of
Gregory XVI., the first among the sovereigns of the
19th century who knew how to make head against the
Emperor Nicholas, and the only one who reminded him,
by his Allocution in 1842, and in a memorable interview of
his duty towards the Poles—pios no,
in fact, only per-
severing in the course on which he entered long ago, the
glorious stages of which he has already marked out in his
Allocution of the 6th of March, 1863, relating to isile pre-
conisation of Poliah Bishops ; in his letter of the 22(2 of
April, 1863, to Alexander the 2d; and; lastly, in his
pre-
cepts relating to the procession of the 31st of August, in
behalf of unhappy Poland. History will, to the latest ge-
nerations, recur with emotion to these noble efforts of the ,
greatest moral power under the sun, No sophistry, no
falsehood, no ingratitude will succeed in obliterating from
the memory of man this striking contrast between the in-
trepid and enduring sympathy of the Popes for an op-
pressed nation, and the desertion, the shameful or the hos-
tile indifference which she has met with at the hands of the
philosophers of the 18th century, and the politicians of
the 19th. * * * Poland has never subverted a le-
gitimate for national Power, or invaded a neighbouring
country. She stands, perhaps, alone in the history of the
world as a people that has never made an attempt against
the person of a king. At the very time when France was
allowing the great revolution of 1789 to end in the Reign
of Terror, Poland by virtue of its constiution of the 3d of
Mays or was actually attaining by
the

competent and irrefutable witness. It is known that he has
received from the most authentic sources a mass of pram
lars which are of most grave and serious import, showing
that a plan for decatholicising Poland has been followed for
a length of time. Hence this cry from the inmost depths of
his soul, which has moved and astounded Europe. But,

Ministerial Shuffling about Denmark,

The following is a nearly verbatim translation of
the more remarkable passages in that noble paper
on the Polish Question by the Count de Alontalem-
bert, upon which paper we took 0CC9.91011 to com-
ment at some length in The Sun of Thursday, the
2d instant, immediately after the appearance of the
Count's expostulation with all Christendom :
When in the night along some storm-beaten coast, a gun
which tells of a ship in danger bursts upon the startled ear,
in what Christian country do the inhabitants of the coast,
deaf to the cry of the sufferers, to the appeal of their fellow-
creatures, their brothers, remain at home to sleep in peace,
or beep awake only to hug themselves in the pleasant sense
of security which land and the fireside affords P When in
the street or on the high road a cry of distress is heard
from some passer-by who is attacked or murdered, what are
we to think of those honest folk who, instead of running to
the victim's aid, only think of shutting themselves up in
their houses, and peep from behind the half-closed shutters
to see from afar how the crime is perpetrated ? Yet this is
what has been taking place in France, in Europe, during
the last 18 months, with this difference that, instead of a
ship, it is a whole nation that is being engulphed in a sea
of blood, and that it is not in the night, not in the midst of
a tempest, nor in the depths of a forest, that the catastrophe
is happening, but in a dead calm. It is not a lonely tra-
veller, nor a caravan of travellers—but a nation, a great
Christian nation, which is hemmed in, seized, garotted,
despoiled, outraged, and assassinated before our eyes.
Eighteen months ago this nation, which a century of un
heard of wrongs and skilfully planned oppression could nei-
ther subdue nor exhaust, fell into the pit which her execu-
tioners had dug for her. One mighty cry she uttered;to remind
the world that she had been buried alive, and did not wish
to die. Then disarmed, alone, desperate,with the boldness of
despair, she engaged in the struggle which still continues.
The victim has exhausted every appeal for human aid. She
has invoked one by one, with the most solemn adjurations,
civilisation, humanity, the law of nations, modern right,
modern ideas, liberty, progress, honour, gratitude, pity,
public conscience. She has obtained nothing ;no response
has been made to this heart-rending appeal. Modern civi-
lisation so proud of its progress, of its universal empire, of
its marvellous inventions, its popular wonders, has remained
dumb and powerless before the monstrous spectacle exhi-
bited at its very door of the dispossession, mutilation, and
butchery of a nation effected, on a system of deliberate
hatred in the middle of the 19th century. Civilisation has
owned itself conquered by barbarism. Even in that country
where liberty flourishes the best, she has done nothing,
has availed nothing, has attempted nothing to save a people,
one of the first among modern races, whose liberty dates
as far back as that of any, and who asks of God and man
but the simplest, the most elementary kind of liberty,
liberty to live. Modern right, so continually invoked in
souse countries, so strangely interpreted and so audaciously
applied in others; this right which, if we are to believe its
noisiest advocates, authorises a people to get rid of Kings
whom it dislikes, without a cause, as in Greece, or for chi-
merical reasons, as in Naples—this new- fangled right
allows an empire more than half Aeiatic to deny and to
violate with impunity every ancient right in the case of an
European and Christian people, which has fallen a prey
to the spoiler after one thousand years of national indepen-
dence. Humanity proves as helpless as liberty Neither
philanthropy uor the increased gentleness of our manners
(which:we may so fairly boast ot) and of our penal laws,
nor that sentimental compassion which is daily called forth
by publicity, and expended on real or imaginary mis-
fortunes, has been of any avail against what seemed too
horrible to bo aught but a nightmare, yet has proved
a fearful reality—a vampire sucking the life-blood of a
weeping victim. Public conscience, too, pity, and gratitude
have been forgetful and bikut. In vain did Poland display
before our eyes the remembrance of her services and of her
Claims, the sight of her wounds and her pangs, she who has

the unrighteous, lest the just themselves should be tempted
to put forth their hand to iniquity. " Non relinquet Domi-
nus virgam peccatorum super sortem justorum : ut non ex-
tendant justi ad iniquitatem manus suns." Like the pro-
cession of saints in that touching frieze in the Church of St
Vincent de Paul left us by Hippolyte Flandrin, the most
Christian artist of the day, and the one whose loss is most
to be deplored, the army of martyrs is on its march. Calm,
sad, resolute, inaccessible to fear, fatigue, or discouragement
with every heart turned towards heaven, that army
will not halt until it shall have reached its journey's end,
when it will sink to rest in the arms of Jesus Christ the
Mighty One, the Father and the God of that justice and of
*hat mercy which he owes to down-trodden yet invincible
Poland.

The Channel squadron, which arrived at Plymouth fronf
the Downs on the 13th ult., is under orders to leave the sound
to-day. All the officers and liberty men were to be on board
by 12 last night. The Edgar, Black Prince, Warrior,Prince
Consort, and Defence will probably start at eight o'clock. At
11 p.m. last night at Plymouth the wind was southerly
and very light. The gunboat Trinculo, tender to Admiral
Dacres, will wait until 5 in the afternoon to receive de-
spatches and pick up stragglers. The squadron proceeds
to Spithead, where a steam launch is ready for the
flagship. Many of the seamen have relatives at Portsmouth,
and they have to remain there a short time. They conclude
that if the squadron is not required in the Baltic it will be
sent on a summer cruise through St. George's Channel and
round Scotland, so as to be back to the south of England in
October.

Advices from the West India and Pacific station, received
by the present snail, report the arrival at Port Royal, Ja-
maica, on the 11th May, of her Majesty's ship Duncan,
bearing the flag of Admiral Sir James Hope, and
her departure on the 23d for Havanna. The Royalist also
arrived at Port Royal on the 11th ult. Some cases of small-
pox had occurred on board both vessels, but none in either
instance had proved fatal, and all were reported as improv-
ing. These on board the Duncan were removed to the
Naval Hospital shortly after their arrival, but no commu-
nication was permitted between the hospital and the
Royalist. On the 14th ult. a naval court martial assembled
on board the Royalist for the trial on the charge of insubor-
dination of Mr Roberts, Mr Filmer, and Mr Hobson, three
young officers of that vessel. The members of court martial
were Capt. Lambert, President, Capt. Kitson, Com. J.
D'Arcy, Com. J. Shears. Capt. Pollard prosecuted. The
charge of insubordination having been substantiated, Mr
Roberts and Mr Hobson were sentenced to two years' im-
prisonment each, and 90 days in each year to solitary con-
finement, and Mr Filmer to one year's imprisonment, and
all three to be dismissed the service with disgrace. They
remained in the General Penitentiary at Kingston, awaiting
the sailing of the vessel which is to convey them home,
where they will undergo their respective sentences. The
Cygnet was also at Jamaica. The Pylades and Greyhound
were at Barbadoes on the 21st ult. The Chameleon, Capt.
Jones, left Vancouver's Island in the latter part of April
for the Mexican coast, and was to proceed thtnee to Pa-
nama to relieve the Devastation, Capt. Pike. The Tribune,
Capt. Lord Gifford, which lett Panama on the 25th of
February, and sailed the whole way, arrived at Esquimalt
about the middle of April. The flagship Sutlej, which
sailed from Callao in Jan., was expected there daily, after
a cruise round the Polynesian Islands.
The Edinburgh, 60, 200 horse power, Capt. C. F. Schorr-
berg, late Coastguard ship at Queensferry, Leith, has re-
turned her guns, shot, shell, and other War Department
stores into the Ordnance stores at Chatham, and is now
being dismantled preparatory to being placed in the Medway
Steam Reserve. This fine vessel will, it is understood, be
sold cut of the navy, as although she is perfectly sound,
she is not altogether adapted for the present requirements
of the service. The Edinburgh is relieved at Leith by the
Trafalgar, 70, 500 horse power.
The following appointments were made on Saturday at
the Admiralty :—Lieut. Wm. H. Heaton to the Implacable

man, to the Prince Consort—R. F. Ward, midshipman, to
the Hector—H. J. J. Phillimore, midshipman, to the Black
Prince—and F. F. Liardot, midshipman, to the Defence.

with all convenient despatch—viz., the Immortalite, 35 guns,
Capt. George Hancock, from the West Indies—the Forte,
39 guns, flagship of Rear-Admiral Warren, Captain Arthur
Mellen,h, from the south-east coast of America—the Nar-
cissus, 35 guns, flagship of Rear-Admiral Sir Baldwin W.
Wal'Aer, K.C.8., Captain F. L. Barnard—the Hornet, 17

tion—and, lastly, the Harrier, of 17 guns, Commander
Edward Hay, from Australia.

Some dismounted men of the 16th Lancers are expected
at Colchester to-morrow, and will take possession of the
new cavalry barracks ; the remainder of the regiment will
arrive on Saturday. The head-quarters of the regiment
will be stationed at Colchester, and detachments of two
troops each will be sent to Ipswich and Norwich until the
completion of the new Colchester barracks. In accordance
with instructions received from the War-office a board of
officers under the presidency of Col. Farren, C. 8., 4th depot
battalion, has assembled at Colchester camp to select a site
for the erection of quarters for married soldiers. As a large
number of men who enlisted at the commencement of the
Crimean war for 10 years' service have been recently dis-
charged, recruiting has been commenced at the camp at
Colchester as well as at other stations.

The English Government has been greatly
weakened by its share in the Danish transactions,
and perhaps the country has, for the time, lost credit
and popularity in Europe. Hereafter, when
the history of the negotiations is dispas.
Sionately reviewed, the charges against English
policy will reduce themselves to a certain number
of errors of taste or style in the language of the
Foreign Minister's despatches, and in one or two
of Lord Palmerston's speeches. The Danes would
have refused compliance with the German demands
even if they had received no encouragement from
England; and, on the other hand, the con-
cessions
which they are supposed to have
made under English influence were dictated by
the plainest considerations of prudence. As they
would have been wiser if they had evacuated
Schleswig without fighting, it is idle to complain
that they were prevented from defending Holstein.
Although the season which is most favourable for
naval operations may be wasting away during the
suspension of hostilities, the re-establishment of the
blockade of certain ports and the capture of a few
German merchantmen would be expensive advan-
tages. It Austria and Prussia find themselves un-
able to resist the Danes at sea, they will merely
tighten their pressure on the land which they
occupy or overrun. Sooner or later compensation
will be exacted for every maritime capture and for
every commercial loss which may result from the
closing of German ports. The weaker belligerent
derives no real profit from any isolated advantage
which he may obtain, for the war must at some
time be terminated by a pacification in which the
conqueror will dictate the conditions. The first loss
is the lightest, although the adviser who recom-
mends early submission is always exposed to misin-
terpretation and odium. No great sagacity is re-
quired to foresee that, if a three months' war
released Austria and Prussia from their obligations
under the treaty, the expenditure of a few more
millions of dollars, and of some thousands of lives,
would be urged as a reason for extorting an addi-
tional equivalent in territory. The Danes complain
with justice that the hostile occupation of Schles•

of
the armistice will have no tendency to expel the
Prussians from the peninsula, and it will enable
them once more to impose contiihutions on the un-
fortunate inhabitants of Jutland.
If the conference breaks up without accomplish-
ing its purpose, both Germany and Denmark will
perhaps find a certain satisfaction in the formid-
able onslaught to which the English Government
will be exposed. Lord Russell may, in a certain
sense, fairly claim the negative merit which he
once attributed to Lord Palmerston, of not being
the Minister or the favourite of any foreign court.
try. In the present dispute he has bitterly offended
the whole German nation, and he has disappointed
the sanguine confidenee of the Danes. There are,
perhaps, half a dozen members of = the House of
Commons, and a somewhat
larger number of Peers,
