manship and mechanism, can be made and fitted wit

most perfect accuracy and success, in a few hours,
pain or extraction of stumps, and to answers er all the purposes
of mastication and articulation. They fit 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-

' eludes by quoting Mr, Coswell's views on the subject. He
reminds o,s that balloons have only been invented so years,
and that 80 years after men first attempted to travel
on the
water their -iessels were but sorry affairs ;so that he draws
hopeful auguries from the comparison. "To be Let, with
Immediate Possession" is the title of a sketch which pour-
trays the miseries of a bachelor in a quiet street. " Her-

FRASEIL—A lengthened and thoughtful paper on
,‘ Women and Scepticism" considers the attitude
1 which it best becomes an educated and
conscientious
woman to assume with regard to the theo-
logical vagaries of the day. :It is followed
bygr " Sketches in China," well .written and
agreeable enough, although little that is new ,remains to be
said on such topics. "The Reforms of the Fa
ture " is anessay from the pen of a writer who does not conform to
Ourthe
"Rest and be Thankful" doctrine of Blairgowrit.'• "

population," says this critic, " grows both in nunii)ers and
intelligence, while neither our land nor our institutions
wholesale innovators, and he most approves of that condi-
tion of things in which "the public organism can gro,w of
grow." He is by no means, however, to be ranked among
itself and change with the changing state of the peop.lB."
The various aspects of the questions of the day, the matt,ers
in which reform is an urgent necessity, and those in which
it can afford to wail and forgersnother generation, ar e
inquired into, diseussed, and gned to their respective
places. Without at all expressing wholesale conformity
with his views, many of the theories put forward by the
writer are just and sensible. The conclusion at which ho
or tw
finally arrives is that, with the exception of one
o
questions, there is no occasion to be impatient for reform,
for "much discussion mtzst precede, thoughtful ;DM Intuit
be convinced, and detailL: maturely considered, even
when principles are agreed up's2." It is well
heo for
those who can conscientiously adopt this try,
since our political practice for some time past shows
little recognition of any necessity for change or pro-
gress. " A Chapter on Croakers " contains much god
sense, although it might have been advanta,geously m-
pressed into smaller limits. It attacks vigorously and tin-'
compromisingly thathabit of discontent and repg which,
once indulged, paralyses all honest and ev erotic ling
effort. .An.

Polish Women and the Insurrection ascribes much of the
fervour and pertinacity of the Polish national feeling to the
high spirited and enthusiastic women of the cou'utry. The
story of "Late Laurels" proceeds rapidly. The
weak and
unworthy Charles passes finally away from the scale) leav
ing Nelly very ready to be comforted, and Margot et, it is
to be hoped, to replace his image by that of a more sOrthy
successor. There are two or three poetical contributions,
the best of which is a charming little poem entitled " Nitul°

[ADVERTIStMENT.] —Holloway's Ointment and Pills
have over and over again proved the best friends to per-
sons afflicted with ulcerations, sores, abscesses, fistulas,
and ',other painful and complicated complaints. Printed
and very plain directions for the application of the Oint-
ment are wrapped;rotmd each pot. Holloway's alterative
Pills should be taken throughout the progress of the cure
to maintain the blood in a state of perfect purity, and to
prevent the whole of the body being jeopardised by the
local ailment. Bad legs, old age's great grievance,
thus readily cured, without confining the patient to
