TEETH.-By MR. ESKF,LL'S INVENTION
(Royal Seal granted 17th July, 1860), Sets or partial
Sets of Teeth, exquisitely enamelled to nature, are made and
fitted in a few hours by means of his patented sott elastic and
imperishable base of the colour of the gum, to which it ad-
heres with wonderful tenacity, dispensing with springs or
unsightly fastenings, and defying detection by tie closest
observer. The peculiar attribute of Mr. Eskell's invention
is, the readiness with which these teeth can be re-adapted to
any change of the mouth (even by the wearer); and as they
act independently of all disturbing causes which affect teeth
of ordinary construction, they a, e guaranteed tt. last a life
time, as wall as for mastication and articulation. Mr.

THE LATE .RAILWAY ACCIDENT.

We are glad to be able to state that since yesterday morn
ning no additional deaths have resulted from the late disas-
trous accident near Winchburgh, although it is greatly to
be feared that the total number of deaths, which at present
amounts to 17, will be still further augmented. Of the 24
persons who were conveyed to the Infirmary on the night of
the accident, only 15 now remain under treatment, four,
as already stated, having died on Tuesday morning, and
the remaining five having been removed, their injuries
being comparatively slight. The greater number of the 15
sufferers Row in the Infirmary are reported as progressing
favourably, but three or four are still in a dangerous state.
The following is a statement of the condition of the in-
jured people in the infirmary up till 12 o'clock last night :
—lsaac Marr, fruiterer, Falkirk, dangerously ill. Mr.
Elder, commercial traveller, Broughton-street, Edinburgh,
dangerously ill. Alex. Alison (misprinted Allan yesterday),
dangerously ill. Alex. Logan, Canongate, dangerously ill.
Mrs. Dempster, Stirling, dangerously ill. John Harvey,
the soldier in the Scots Greys, dangerously ill. Neil and
Honeyman, the engine-driver and guard, and the remain-
ing patients are proceeding favourably.
Yesterday Sheriff Jamieson attended at the Infirmary
for the purpose of taking the deposition on oath of Neil, the
engine driver of the Glasgow train, as to the circumstances
attending the accident. Neil ease nable to make a deposi.
tion on the previous day, but day he did so in a clear
and connected manner. The deposition was of course taken
in private, but it is not supposed that he has thrown any
new light on the cause of the accident.
Mr. Lothian, Procurator-Fiscal, attended at the Police-
office yesterday, where he took about twenty depositions
regarding the identification of the dead bodies previous to
their removal by their friends.
Nothing further has transpired as to the cause of the ac-
cident, but we believe it is probable that others besides the
pointselan may be taken into custody.
Yesterday the friends of the persons whose bodies have
lain in the Police-office since Monday evening removed the
greater number of the bodies after their formal identification
before the authorities. In the course of the day nine bodies
were thus removed, large crowds collecting in the High-
street in front of the Police-office as each coffin was re-
m'ved from the dead-house to the hearse. Messrs. Reid
and Sons, undertakers, conducted the arrangements for the
removal of the bodies. Mr. Hosie's body was conveyed to
Dunfermline, per rail, thence to Oakley, yesterday after-
noon, by Mr. Reid ; Mr. Hedderwick's was removed to
Falkirk in the evening; and the remains of Mr. Cowie
were also conveyed to Stirling ; the body of Mr. Macfarlane
was sent to Linlithgow; that of Cunningham, the stoker
of the Glasgow train, was taken by his friends to his house
in Romilly-place ; and the other bodies, namely, those of
Mrs._ Honeyman and Elizabeth Stevenson, Morton and
Cochrane, engine-driver and stoker of the Edinburgh train
—were also removed by their friends in the course of the
day.
The three bodies still remaining in the Police-office aro
those of Mrs. Gill, Mr. Haxton, and the person supposed,
from the buttons on his jacket, to have been a railway por-
ter, but who is still unidentified. Mrs. Gill's body is cof-
fined and ready for interment. The brother of Mr. Heaton,
who reside 3 in Markinch, came over to Edinburgh yester-
day evening, identified the body, and made arrangements
for its removal to Falkirk this morning.
Among those injured by the accident who were able,
with assistance, to proceed home, and of whom, conse-
quently, there has been no account, were Mr. James
Buchanan, student of divinity (TJ.P.), Murrayfield, Edin-
burgh, who sustained a slight sprain and bruise, and Mr.
Aaron Anderson, draper, St. Patrick-square, who sustained
a contusion on the knee, and was slightly bruised on the
head.
Mr. Adolphus M. Ross, 20, Barony-street, one of the
sufferers by the late railway accident, has received the fol-
lowing injuries :—Severe contusion of left eye and left side
of upper jaw; there is much swelling and discoloration of
the parts, but fortunately the eyeball itself is not seriously
injured. Also, severe bruise of left leg above and below the
knee, though fortunately the joint is not involved, nor any
bones broken ; the right leg shows marks of less severe
bruises, and the left hand is slightly cut in two or three
places, He is attended by Dr. M'Gilchrist and is doing
well, though in a state of prostration.

THE UNIDENTIFIED BODY.
The following is a description of the body which still
lies unidentified in the Police-office :
The body is that of a man apparently about 30 to 35 years
of age, sft. 3 or 4 inches in height, with auburn hair, and no
beard or whiskers. Dressed in a black woollen jacket with
vest

THE WOUNDED IN LINLITHGOW.
No fatal consequences have followed to any of the suf-
ferers who were brought here. The most serious injuries
received were those of Mr. Shaw, writer, Falkirk, clerk to
Mr. Hedderwick (who was killed). Mr. Shaw is still in a
critical state, but no unfavourable symptoms have set in.
He lies in Mr. Maddox's Hotel, and no removals have
taken place from it, except Mrs. Paterson, who went to
Edinburgh by the mid-day train.
The sufferers in the Red Lion Hotel have both been re-
moved, Mr. Gray having gone to Alba, and Mr. Buchanan
to Edinburgh.

arrive, than the surmise was all too surely verified. The
melancholy duty of disclosing the sad fact that she was
again a widow devolved upon Dr. Dow, of Carnock. On
the do3tor entering Blair House, Mrs. Hosie at first mis-
took him for her husband. The moment, however, that
she saw her medical adviser, the poor woman understood
her position. The shock, so sudden, so unanticipated and
unexplained, was too much. A bewildering horror took
possession of her at once; and, for a time, all effort to alle-
viate or assuage her grief was unavailing.

to make her a fair return. (Applause.) I have
found them out, and I tell you they are a nation of
cowards. You may slap them in the face and kick
them, and there is no fight in them. (Applause.)
I have just returned from Washington, where I saw
Mr. Seward, and I asked him to order the British
ships out of these waters. (Applause.) You know
the Tuscarora was lately ordered out of an Eng-
lish port, and coal refused her. I would like to
know why the Tusearora could not have her
coal in an English port ? The Sumter got all
she wanted. The Nashville got coal there,
and, lately, the rebel steamer " 290" was fitted
out, and sailed from an English port ; but the Tus-
carora cannot get her coal in one of these ports,
Now, I ask any statesman who may be in this meet-
ing, why it is that a British ship is allowed to obtain
her coal in these waters—l would send them out.
(Tremendous applause.) I think it is high time that
we emancipated ourselves. I tell you there is no
fight in them. I have said to them in their discus-
sion halls, " You have insulted us when you thought
we were ill and in trouble. In the Trent affair you
threw down the gauntlet. We gave up the men,
because it was not our purpose to keep them ; but the
gauntlet is there, and we mean to take it up, and
you shall fight. We know you are cowards, but
you shall fight." (Applause.) But ought Americans
to fight them ? We must take men of our own size.
We are educated as children never to strike women
or old men, and we ought to keep hands off )f Eng-
land and leave the Irish to whip her. (Great ap-
plause.) One of the passions of my lifetime has been
to put Brian Boroihme, an Irish descendant of
kings, on the throne of England. (Cheers.) And
here let me tell you what I believe. I believe.sin-
cerely that Lord Palmerston poisoned Prince
Albert for the purpose of usurping the throne.
believe he did it. I know that he is the first prince
who has been hurried to the tomb without being
embalmed. The Queen to-day hates Lord Palmer-,
ston. It is only ten years ago that Lord SAW
Russell read a letter in theHouseof Commons signed
by the Queen—when Lord Palmerston forged the
despatches—it was a direct forgery—in which it
was stated " you have placed yourself in the place
of the Queen and passed by the crown." Palmer-
ston was out of office at the time, and a scurrilous
pamphlet appeared against the Queen, which he
took to her and said, " Your husband is a dead
man in ten days unless things are changed." In
four days he was back in office again ; but the
Queen hates him, and has not spoken to him since
Prince Albert's death. This is well known in Eng-
land. He rules the country now, in fact, and why
should he not conspire to rule it in name ? He went
on to say—" I tell you the country is shaking like
an aspen. But not alone from the conspiracy of
Lord Palmerston—the people are beginning to
think. The discussion halls have aroused the mob,
and all Ireland is on fire. The beacon lights are lit,
and now they only wait- the result of this contest,
and as soon as it comes all Europe is in a flame.
We are fighting for the whole world. We are fight-
ing the great battle of civilisation, of freedom.
(Applause.) But to return to my statistics of Eng-
land. In Lancashire 450,000 operatives in its fac-
tories are absolutely starving. Now, why is it that,
after twenty years of cotton prosperity, they should
be starving ? They have not a shilling saved. %% hat
do they get a day ? Eighteenpence, or 37 cents a
day, out of which to support their families and pay
their taxes. So it simply shows that the aristo-
cracy have so enslaved the people as to bring them
down to that pitiable condition that it makes no
difference whether there is plenty or famine in the
land. If there is plenty they get their eighteen-
pence a day, and live ; if there is a famine they get
nothing, and die. It makes precious little diffe-
rence. Unless they shortly get relief they will
commence burning the hayricks. They have already
commenced. I have been among all these working
classes. I have attended their trades unions. I re-
present the people. I could have put 20,000 of
them there in a day to tear down the gaol ; but I
said no ! wait a little longer—there is a good time
coming, boys. (Cheers.) Your time will come ptie
of these days. As I said before, the people have
just be un to think for themselves in England. But
to go on with the statistics. They are a nation of
drunkards-60,000 drunkards die every year in
England—there are 600,000 habitual drunkards in
the country, men and women—little children grow
up drunkards. There are ten times as many gin-
shops and palaces as there are churches or schools.
There is nothing but gin shops and rum palates
all over the place, and it is a terrible sight to
see women going into them all over the country
—a thing lon will never see in this country
You never saw a woman enter such a house here,
at least when I left three years ago. These
things are not done in this country. Public
opinion looks down upon them ; but in England
everybody drinks. An Englishman is made up of
so many cubic inches of mutton chops and so many
quarts of beer. Then look at the statistics of Scot-
land. The last register states'that there are 8,000
families, each family of whom lives in a house with-
out a single window—a one-storied house without
a window. That there are 250,000 families occu-
pying houses of two rooms of two windows, and
250,000 families more living in houses of one room
with one window. Thus 72 per cent. of the entire
population of Scotland are enslaved in a manner that
the poor negroes of the South would shed tears of
pity could they see any human beings in the world
reduced to such a state as I have seen them in
Scotland. These are facts, and I challenge any
Englishman in the land to confute them. An Eng-
lishman once said to me, that he would not be al-
lowed to speak in this country. I answered,' Come
over with me, and bring any twelve men you may
select, because you cannot do it alone, and I will
see that you will have a stage, and an audience ; I
will make my statement, and you can refute it if I
do not speak the truth.' I know these to be facts.
We are a superior race. Our women are more beau-
tiful, our men more manly. (Laughter and cheers.)
You ladies are as much to blame for this as any.
body. Everything you get you want to be English,
You must have French laces. To satisfy this de.
sire you are constantly cheated. Why, I know paper
manufacturers down in Massachusetts and in other
States, who are actually forced to be dishonest in
order to make their note paper sell. They put the
English and French stamp on it, and you buy it for
English and French paper, while it is made here all
the time. (Laughter and applause.) There is no mis-
take about these facts." Mr. Train next referred to
various descriptions of English manufactures, and
exhorted his hearers not to buy any more English

The Pylades, 21, 350-horse power, fitting for com
mission in the fourth dock at Chatham, is getting
well forward, and will be ready for sea by the end
of the ensuing month. Her standing wire rigging
has been set up, and her topmasts painted. Yester-
day a number of shipwrights commenced preparing
her decks for the reception of her Armstrong guns,
five of which will be supplied her, viz., one 110-
pounder and four 40-pounders.
The Rosario, 11, 150-horse power, Commander
Graham, still remains at the Nore, awaiting sailing
orders from the Admiralty. She has shipped her
stores and provisions and is expected to leave for
the West Indies on Tuesday next.
The Trafalgar, 89, 500-horse power, Capt. the
Hon. T. Baillie, refitting at the Nore, to join the
Channel squadron, has taken on board her stores
and guns, and yesterday shipped her powder, pre-
paratory to proceeding to Spithead. The petty offi-
cers and men having petitioned the Admiralty to be
paid off, a despatch has been received at the Nore
announcing that their request cannot be complied
with, but a proportion of the crew would be allowed
to volunteer for other ships in commission. Between
100 and 200 of the petty officers and seamen accord-
ingly availed themselves of the offer of the Admi-
ralty and have proceeded to the western ports to
join the vessels there fitting for sea.
The Chanticleer, 17, screw, Commander C. Stir-
ling, sailed from Spithead at daylight yesterday
morning for the Mediterranean.
The Sutlej, screw frigate, Capt. M. Connolly,has
a body of men employed upon her alongside Ports-
mouth dockyard, preparing her for fitment with a
poop as flagship, to relieve the Bacchante in the
Pacific.
A distinguished party of visitors, including Ad-
miral Sir G. Sartorius, Mr. Rolt, M.P., and Messrs.
Green, the eminent shipbuilders, paid a visit to
Chatham dockyard on Wednesday afternoon, and
spent some time in the inspection of that establish-
ment and the iron and iron-plated vessels now under
construction.
The huge wooden rudder, weighing upwards of 11
tons, belonging to the iron-cased ship Caledonia, to
be launched on the 24th inst. at Woolwich, was yes-
terday shipped and fitted in position. The rudder is
sheeted with Muntz's patent metal and fitted with
a Norman head, the latter weighing 33 cwt.
Her Majesty's iron screw troopship Dromedary,
Master Commander Brown, from the coast of Africa,
has arrived at Woolwich, and yesterday proceeded
to Deptford to discharge her cargo of condemned
stores. She made a remarkably quick and favourable
voyage, having been only 29 days from port to port.
Her Majesty's troopship Adventure, Commander
Lethbridge, yesterday completed her repairs in
dock at 'Woolwich, and, in conformity with the fa-
vourable recommendation of the shipwright de-
partment to the Board of Admiralty, the interior
of the hull has been ordered to be recoated with
Davy's cement, to which, on a survey of the
vessel, the safety of the vessel is mainly attributed
in the disaster at St. John's, Newfoundland. Al-
though the plates were ripped off and a cavity
opened sufficient to admit the passage of a man's
body into the fore part of the ship, no water had
penetrated into the compartments of that part of
the vessel. The recoating of the interior of the
Adventure is to be commenced in dock this morning
et Woolwich, under the superintendence of the
Admiralty Board. The Adventure is under orders
to leave Woolwich on the Ist of November to eon•
vey the remnant of the 15th brigade Royal Artillery
to the West Indies.
The following appointments were made yester-
day at the Admiralty :—Lieut. Richard s. Bate-
man, to the Sutlej, additional for disposal on the
Pacific Station ; John E. Petley, master, to the
Asia, for service in the Enchantress ; Charles
Allsop, second-class assist-engineer, to the Resis-
tance; F. L. Graham, assist.-surg., to the Trafal-
gar; Belgrave Ninnis, acting assist.-surg., to the
