TEETH.—Mr. ESKgLL'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-

THE NAVY.

Her Majesty's new paddle yacht, Alberta, recently
launched at Pembroke, arrived at Portsmouth yesterday,
and will be immediately taken in hand to complete her out-
fit for the service of her Majesty.
Considerable progress has been made in fitting the heavy
portion of the screw machinery on board the iron steamer
Achilles, at Chatham dockyard, in anticipation of that
vessel being floated out of dock. The heavy metal castings
for the screw propeller arrived at the dockyard from the
establishment of Messrs. Penn and Sons, Greenwich, last
week, and yesterday the mechanics commenced fitting them
on board. The Achilles will be fitted with engines of 1,250
horse power (nominal), but, in reality, capable of being
worked up to three times that power. Her screw is four-
bladed, and the screw boss is the finest casting of its kind
ever landed at the dockyard. Its finish is in every respect
as perfect as is possible to be obtained in a work of the
kind. The diameter of the boss is 3ft 9in, and its total
weight is 3 tons, 19cwtOqr. 151 b. The inner diameter in
which the screw shaft revolves is lft 10in. Each of the
screw blades is 10ft bin in length, by 6ft in width at their
widest part, and their total weight, exclusive of the bor-
ings, is 151 tons, the weight of each blade being as nearly
as possible 3 tons 4 cwt. As some apprehension exists as
to there being a sufficient depth of water to enable the
Achilles te be floated out of dock on the date named for
that event, eely a small portion of the heavier parts of the
machinery will be placed on board during the time the iron
frigate remains in dock. It is computed that fully six
months' work will remain to be effected on board after the
Achilles is afloat before she can be in all respects completed
and fit to proceed to sea.
The sailing frigate Latona, 42 guns, atteched to the sail-
ing reserve in Chatham harbour, has been surveyed by the
dockyard officials in order to ascertain whether her general
condition is such as to render her available for a guardship
at Chatham, in lieu of the Wellesley, 72, which is to be
removed to a more eligible position near the entrance to the
harbour at Gillingham Reach. The Loras of the Admi-
ralty, on the report of the dockyard authorities, have
selected the Diamond, 27, to succeed the Wellesley as
guardship at the port and dockyard, and she will be
fitted for that service as soon as a sufficient number of
hands can be released from the other vessels now in
progress.
The general court-martial ordered for the trial of Capt.
W. Cosser, paymaster of the Portsmouth division of Royal
Marine Light Infantry, on charges of defalcation, &c., will
assemble at the Royal Marine Barracks, Forton, near
Gosport, on Friday, the 11th inst.
I The following appointments were made yesterday at
the Admiralty :—Lieut. Henry A. Grimston, to the
Salamander ; John S. Moore, paymaster, to the Salaman-
der ; Henry S. Pemberton, second-class assist.-engineer,
to the Edgar; William H. Hemming, clerk, to the Sala-
mander; and William J. Oliver, assist.-clerk, to the Ex-
cellent.
