AN IMPORTANT DISCUSSION.—The
"Times," the "Lancet," and other leading journals
have been lately canvassing the Social considerations in-
vol.,: ed in " the amount of death and disease caused by vice."
Some interesting statistics are brought to bear upon the
joluiry • but it would greatly add to their value if they in-
cluded the facts respecting the orgi the ravages, and the
Prevention of that SPECIAL vIcE, which wars more than any
other against the welfare of society--destroying the happi-
ness and disappointing- the objects of matrimony, under-
mining the constitutions, blasting the prospects, embittering'
and shortening. the lives of its victims, and spreading' desola-
tion through families.
The essential particulars relating to this great social evil

TEETH.--By MR. ESKELL'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 soft 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 toe 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 are guaranteed to last a life
time, as well as for mastication and articulation. Mr.

St. Bartholomew's, under the care of Messrs. Lloyd, Poland,
and Legros Clark.—(Lancet, Nov. 6, 1857). The Copahine,

" The aim of the author is to present a common-sense view

LITERATURE.

Lucilla : an Italian Story. Edited by the Hon.

Mrs. Macdonald. 2 vols. Hurst and Black ett.
This must be considered an historic sketch of the
condition of Italy towards the close of the fifteenth
century, rather than a tale of individual adventure,
and the writer is, evidently, somewhat inexpe-
rienced. The groundwork of the tale is furnished
by the attempts of Charles the Eighth of France to
possess himself of the city of Florence and the
kingdom of Naples. In the first, owing to the
patriotism of the Florentines, he failed, and in the
last he was only successful for an extremely brief
period. Lucille, the heroine of the story, of Greek
descent, had been stolen when an infant by a Jew
named Malvezzi, and was supposed to have been
" taken to Rome by the cursed man, and there bar-
barously murdered, so that her blood might be in-
fused into the veins of a nobleman who was of
Greek extraction, and consequently required Greek
blood, according to that wicked impostor." The
nobleman died, but the girl, it appears, survived,
and was brought up by the Jew as his own child,
and, as she was extremely beautiful, he had her
taught every accomplishmen t. intending, ultimately,
to sell her to the Grand Seigneur. But it so hap-
pened that at the time the French took possession
of Naples, the Jew and the girl were in the fortress
called the Castel dell' Novo, which was stoutly de-
fended by a devoted adherent of the King of Naples,
named Ludovico Trivulzio, whose son Annibale, and
Lucille being thrown much together, naturally fell
in love. Not liking his quarters, the Jew attempted
to open a treasonable correspondence with the
enemy, which was discovered, and he was confined
in a supposed secure dungeon. An inscription in
Hebrew on the wall, however, informs him of a secret
passage, by which he escapes, makes his way to
Naples, and is welcomed by one of his compa-
triots. Meanwhile the fortress is taken by assault,
but the two Trivulzii escape also by the secret
passage, carrying with them Lucille, and take re-
fuge in the mountains, where a few of the partizans
of Ferdinand, the Neapolitan king, had assembled.
A change now takes place in Neapolitan affairs;
Charles retires to France, leaving Montpensier
regent. The appearance of Ferdinand with a fleet
is the signal for insurrection ; the French are
driven out, and the tale ends with the entry of
Ferdinand, the death of the Jew, and the happi-
ness of Annibale and Lucille. The historical in-
cidents are, in the main, correct, and it is to them
the tales owes its chief interest.
