THE WAR

NEW DI4'.IITVERY TN TEETII.
MR. HOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52,
FLEET-S MEET, has introduced an EN IIttELY NEW
DESCRIPTION of ‘IITIFiCIAL, TEETH, fixed without springs,
wires, or leatitres. They so perfectly resemble the natural teeth,
as not to he distinguished from the or ginals by the closest observer ;
they will never change colour or decay, and will he found superior to
any teeth ever before used. This method does not require the ex-
traction of roots, or any painful operas and will supp _irt and pre-
serve teeth that are loose, and is guanteed t orestore articulation
and mastication. Decayed teeth rendered sound and useful in mas-
tication.

NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE.
COURT-MARTIAL ON TILE OFFICERS OF THE LATE STEAM GUN-
BOAT JASPER.-A court-martial, consisting of Captain Sir Thomas
Maitland, C 8., of her Majesty's ship Excellent, president ;
Captains Eliot, of the St. Vincent; Mausel, of the Powerful;
Adams, of the Scourge ; Harris, of the Illustrious ; Hay, of
the Victory ; and Tarleton, C. 8., of the Fox ; Mr. G L.
Greetham, Deputy Judge-Advocate of the Fleet, assembled
yesterday morning ou boar 1 the Victory, to try Lieutenant
Crawley and the officers and crew of the steam gun-boatfrom
Jasper, which took fire and bl,,w up on her passage
Plymouth to the Baltic, on the 15th inst., as detailed fully in
The Sun of Wednesday last. Lieutenant Crawley and Mr.
I yer, the second master, were the first tried. The witnesses
examined were Mr. Hall, the senior engineer ;
William
Cooper, carpenter's mate ; Mr. Biddle, third
r. classewis, assistant
engineer; Mr. Blellock, the gunner; and M L firs
class assistant engineer, but their testimony threw no light
ou the cause of the fire, which was surmised to have ori-
ginated at a point in close proximity to the boilers with the
deck beams, and with the woodw-rk of the bulkhead.
Every officer and man exerted himself to the utmost to extin-
guish the flame when discovered, but the materials at hand to
enable them to do so were none of the most efficacio su. The
following was consequently the finding :—" The Court, having
heard the evidence in reference to the loss of her Majesty's
steamer Jasper by fire, on the 15th of May, 1854, have not
been enabled to discover the origin of the fire. The Court
also consider that Lieutenant C. G. Crawley, and the second
master, Mr. Richard Dyer, used their utmost endeavours to
extinguish the fire, and did not leave the ship until they con-
sidered it dangerous to remain longer. They are, therefore,
both honourably acquitted." The president of the Coart, Sir
Thomas Maitland, in returning Lieutenant Commander Craw-
-1.,y his sword, said, " I have been requested by the Court to
state that you did your duty nobly, both as a commanding
officer and a seaman."
Advices were received yesterday at the Admiralty, under
date Memel, May 18, that her Majesty's sloop Archer had ar-
rived off that port, escorting another of her Majesty's steamers,
having four Russian prize ships In tow, captured in Libau har-
bour

intelligence was also received yesterday, under date
Stockholm, May 15," that her Majesty's steamer Amphion
had arrived in Faro Sound with three Russian prizes cap-
tured off Riga—namely, the Najasdisa, Caroline, and Gebru-
ders, all of which are now on the way in charge of prize crews
to London.
By order of the Lords of the Admiralty the Argo, Russian
prize captured off-the Cove of Cork, has been brought round
to Liverpool in charge of a revenue cutter for condemnation.
Yesterday the Eurydice, Captain Ommauney, sailed from
the Downs in company with the Semillante, French ship of
war, her Majesty's steamer Miranda, Captain Lyons, and the
Brisk, to operate against the Russians in the White Sea.
The Mileu, French war steamer, and the Belleisle, hospital
ship, left Vie Downs yesterday for the Baltic.
The Powerful, 84, Captain Mansel, was docked yesterday
afternoon to have her lower works examined and commence
her klpment for sea.
The ox, 42, Captain Tarleton, C. 8., has been paid off.
Mr. William Rumble, first class engineer (late serving in
the Fury, six guns, paddlewheel steam-sloop in the Black
Sea), has this day taken up his commission and joined the
Royal Albert, 131, screw steam-ship. Mr. Rumble was pro-
moted on the 6th inst , and his appointment to this noble
ship bears date from the 10th inst. A portion of the ma .hi-
nery has already arrived at Sheerness, and Messrs. Penn and
Sons are to be there on Wednesday next.
Orders arrived at Sheerness on Sunday evening for the
Tribune, 31, screw frigate, " to prepare for sea," and also
changing her destination. She is not to proceed to the Bal-
tic. All letters and parcels on board of her for the Baltic
fleet have been transferred to the Resistance troop-ship,
Master-Commander M. Bradshaw. The Tribune left last night,
at 7 p.m., for Spithead, there to receive her further orders.
She took supernumeraries from Sheerness for Portsmouth
and Devonport —the latter for the Royal William, 120, guard-
ship of ordinary there.
The Monkey steam-vessel, Second-Master Mr. Sindcomb,
arrived alongside the Resistance at 2 p.m. yesterday, with the
spare screw propeller and gear for the St. Jean d'Acre, for
conveyance to the Baltic; she will leave Sheerness to-day.
The t7uckoo, 3 paddlewheel steamer, has been completed
by the dockyard ; she will be ready for sea on the 24th inst.,
and is under orders to leave Sheerness on the 26th iust. Sue
takes 12 mouths' stores, &c.
The African steam-vessel proceeded from Sheerness on
Saturday last, at 8 p.m., with supernumeraries from the
Waterloo for the Belleisle, and on her arrival in the Downs
found the Belleisle hail taken her departure at 3 a.m. on Sun-
day for the Baltic. The African returned at 8 p.m., and yes-
terday the supernumeraries were sent on board the Resistance
for a passage to the Baltic.
The revenue cutter Fairy, Thomas Longmain, Commander,
arrived at Sheerness yesterday from Aldborough, for an ex-
change of men, a portion of her crew having been draughted
from her for active service in the Baltic.
Preparations are making at Sheerness, for the electric
telegraph being brought into the Admiral's offices, the Cap-
tain-Superintendent's offices, and the offices of the Colonel-
Commandant of the Garrison. These offices will be in direct
communication with the telegraphs at Whitehall, Somerset-
hou-e, and the Horse Guards. Every despatch is ordered to
be used in getting the communication alluded to completed.
The following appointments have taken place :
Rear-Admiral Edward Boxer, C. 8., to be Rear-Admiral
Superintendent in the Bosphorus, and to have the entire
charge of the transport service in the East.
Captain Robert Smart, K.H., at present superintendent of
the ' aval 'oast Volunteers, and borne on the books of the
Fisgard flag-ship at Woolwich since December last, is ap-
pointed Captain-Superintendent at Pembro!, e dockyard, vice
Captain-Superintendent Sir Thomas Pasley, Bart., whose
period of service as superintendent of that dockyard has ex-

pired.
Lieutenants William K. Bush (1850), from the St. George,
12i1, with the Baltic fleet, to the Hornet, 17, screw steam-
sloop, at Woolwich ; William H. Truseott (1853), from the
Centaur, paddle-wheel steam-frigate, recently returned from
the south-east coast of America station, to the Powerful, 84,
at Portsmouth.
Paymasters Edward Thorne (1829), to the Trafalgar, 120,
flag-ship, at Sheerness ; William P. O'Brien (1844), from the
Simoom, iron screw steam troop-ship, to the ranspareil,
70, screw steam-ship, in the Black Sea ;H. W. Hollinworth
(1850), from the Fury, paddle-wheel steam-sloop, in the
Black Sea, to the Simoom, vice O'Brien ; Thomas Ellard
(clerk of 1846), from the Apollo troop-ship, to be Acting-Pay-
master of the Fury, vice Hollinworth ; H. W. Sandhere (clerk
of 1848), from the Portland, 50, to be clerk in charge of the
Apollo troopship.
Clerk W. IL Hatch, to the Powerful, 84, at Portsmouth.
Clerks' Assistants Henry de Bidder, to the Duke of Welling-
ton, 131, screw steam-ship ; Hamilton M. Cole, also to the
Duke of Wellington.
The Lords of the Admiralty have given notice at Lloyd's
that another transport is required to convey cannon weighing
246 tons to Constantinople. The heaviest of these pieces of
ordnance weighs about six tons.
The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steam-ship Hima-
laya, Captain A. Kellock, left Southampton yester lay after-
noon for Cork. She will reach that port (all going well) on
Wednesday morning. The embarkation of the Dragoons and
horses is expected to occupy three days, and the Himalaya
will, it is hoped, g•rt away from Cork on Saturday next.
Captain Crispin, R.N., of the Fairy, and another Government
officer proceed in the Himalaya to Malta, to report upon the
working of her screw propeller, with a view more especially of
enabling the Admiralty to decide whether her Majesty's new
steam-yacht shall be fitted with the paddle-wheel or screw.
A rumour that the Queen would visit the Himalaya before her
departure was entirely unfounded. It is, however, antici-
pated that her Majesty and the Royal family will inspect this
noble ship on her return from the East.
We understand that the great steam-packet companies
connected with the port of Southampton have received
an intimation from the Government, requesting them to
hold at ii:s disposal, from time to time, all the large steam-
ships that can be made available for the conveyance of
troops. Every vessel, therefore, not urgently required for
the mail service will be offered to the Admiralty. The
Tamar, a beautiful new paddle-wheel steam-ship, of 1,800
tons, and 400-horse power, built on the diagonal principle,
arrived at Southampton on Sunday, from the Thames. After
an official trill trip, the Tamar will probably be despatched
with the West India and Mexican mails of the 2d of June,
leaving the Magdalena for the transport service, if she should
be required. The Magdalena is a sister ship to the Orinoco,
and capable of carrying 1,200 to 1,300 men to the East.
The 27th Regiment, which is under orders for India, has
received further orders to be in readiness for embarkation on
the 15th of June next.
Six vessels which are being fitted up in Liverpool as trans-
ports are expected to arrive at Kingstown before the close of
this week. It is stated they are for the conveyance of the
4th Dragoons to Gallipoli, and of the 21st Regiment to Greece.
One of the transports, the Maori, arrived at Kingstown yes-
terday; so that the embarkation of the 4th Dragoons will
commence immediately.
