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 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-

Fly Fisher rushed to the front and jumped the water in

front of the stand clear of Chester and Woodford, who
were two or three lengths in advance of Lincoln, O'Connell
going over fifth, and Emblematic, who alighted in the
water, was last over. Going out of the course, after pro-
ceeding about half a mile, Emblematic refused, and retired
to the rear; but in the next 200 yards O'Connell and Ches-
ter also refusing, the Liverpool winner went on fourth, a

long way, however, behind Fly Fisher. At this sem.
fence Lincoln and Woodford swerved on the wrong side of
a flag, but were soon righted, and after they had gone a
mile and a half Lincoln took second place, Fly Fisher still
holding the lead, bat at such a slow pace that Woodford
and Emblematic were within an easy distance of the other
two. In the succeeding half mile Lincoln took up the run-

water jump, which was first cleared by Fly Fisher, Lin-

coin second, and Woodford third. Emblematic, the only
other competitor in the race, again jumped the water and
the several succeeding fences to the road badly. Nearly a
mile from borne Emblematio overjumped herself and fell,
but neither the nor Stevens was injured. The other three
ran closely together until arriving in the course, where
Woodford dropped away, and the other two raced over
the last hurdles, in jumping which Fly Fisher stumbled,
and his jockey went on to his neck. This gave Lincoln a
decided advantage, and, maintaining the front position to

Bloodhound, Cooksboro', and St. George as their imme-

AQUATICS.

UNIVERSITY BOAT RACE.

Compared with the dashing work in both tho University
boats at Putney yesterday, the previous performance of the
crews might be considered insignificant; both evidently
wero on their mettle, and their exertions gained for thorn
the unqualified approbation of their friends, and augur well
for a fine race on Saturday. Still there are some trifling
defects which ere then will probably disappear. 'I he Cam-
bridge crew went out shortly after eleven o'clock from
Symonds's yard with new oars supplied from his store, and
not yet painted, their own sets, which they brought
from Cambridge, being disapproved of. They rowed up
against the tide to the Ship at Mortlake, where they
made a fine start, and rowed the course down on the
ebb. The whole distance was rowed at a bursting pace,
commencing at 36 and reaching 37 or 38 strokes per minute,
when they were well into their work, and they were well
together in the pull, although close critics were of opinion
that some of the crew still threw themselves a little too
much back at the end of the stroke, by which they lose
time, to say nothing of expending strength, without a com-
mensurate effect. Their pace was certainly very fast, the
distance being accomplished in little more than 201 minutes.
The Oxonians went out from the London Rowing Club
boat-house, at about 12 o'clock, and rowed a little above the
Ship before they turned to go off, and were then nearly on a
level with Barker's rails. They went off at a fine pace, and
getting into the celebrated Oxford swing almost immedi-
ately, came down at a fine pace, rowing at the rate of from
38 to 39 or 391 strokes per minute. Their pace was acce-
lerated towards the finish, and the time occupied was about
20} minutes and some five or six seconds less than the Can-
tabs, with a little more distance but a trifle more tide. Bet-
ting was 6 to 4 on Oxford, but neither freely laid nor taken,
The Stork steamer has been engaged by Henry Kelly, the
ex-champion of the 'Thames, to convoy spectators from
Woolwich to accompany the race.
