',here is probably nob inch or industry which has been more
Profitable in Scotland during the last few .ears than it n
6,h,1P-building, and whm the great advantages possessed by

'Although several Shipbuilding Companies have been
established in the vicinity of London and Liverpool, whose
Operations h tve been attt-ndid with great success, the busi-
ness on the banks of the Clyde has hitherto been exclusively
carried on by private enterprise, and the large fortunes
accumulated by Scotch shipbuilders are a guarantee of
What might be expected from the working of a Com-

possessing ample means and influential body of Di-
Theecto immense impetus given to iron shipbuild;ng by the
It',
,ninerous Steamship Companies recently established under
ne Limited Liability Act, which will require vessels of great
Itltize and power for trading to all parts of the world, will un-
oubtedly prove a constant source of highly remunerative
;employment to this Company ; and it is evident that the day
fast approaching when iron steamships will be used ex-
e4llBbrelY, not only for the conveyance of emigrants and pas-
lenZers, but also of teas, silks, and other descriptions of the
nest and most costly articles of commerJe to and from every
Dort on of the ,globe.

to the revolution which iron-plated ships have
ected in naval warfare, it has become necessary to recon-
structl the entire navies of Europe, and from the admirable
Vulner in which the iron-plated vessels of war recently
se€l to the British navy have been constructed by private
„,11Pbullder and by the Thames Iron Ship-building Com-
panies, there is not the slightest doubt that the building. of
fleets of Great Britain and the other naval Po were will
'l4 future be large entrusted to such companies.
4,A• e'reat element in the success of this Company is the fact
vat there will be a London Board, ready t + contra° tor the
qaorious and impor ant contracts of the British and Foreign
°my:Mil:lents, an 1 the large Shipping Companies, whose
orders are naturally first placed in hand in London, and
a un are much more likely to be secured by the influence of
ci..tropolitan directory thin by the application ot a provin-
41shipbuilder.

TEETH.—Mr. 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
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-
tise explaining Mr. Eskell's Patent, &c., free for 7 stamps.
