ANEW DISCOVERY IN TEETH.-
Mr. HOWARD, Surgeon-Dentist, 52, Fleet-street, has intro-
duced an entirely NEW DESCRIPTION of ARTIFICAL TEETH,
fixed without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so perfectly resem-
ble the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from the original by
the closest observer; they will never chanecolotir or decay, and will
be found very superior to any teeth ever before used. This metbod
does not require the extraction of roots, or any painful operation,
and will give support and preserve teeth that are loose, and are
guaranteed to restore articulation and mastication ; and that Mr.
Howard's improvement may be within reach of the most economical,
he has fixed his charges at the lowest scale possible. Decayed teeth
rendered sound and useful in mastication.-62, Fleet-street. At
home from ten till five.

THE CITY OF LONDON AND THE SEAT OF FASHION.
THE CITY of LONDON, in a geographical,
topographical, commercial, and trading point of view, is
superior to any town in the kingdom. As the " seat of fashion,"
the superlative claims of the City are everywhere asserted
and maintained, and hence the familiar phrase : —" if you would have
really superior articles, you must go to the City for them." Why (it
may be asked) is a constant trading communication kept up with the
City, the suburbs and the provinces ? Would this be the case if the
English capital were simply on a par with other less distinguished
localities ? Most assuredly not. L. RYAN for many years has had
the honour of vindicating and establishing the reputation of the City
London as the seat of fashion, by a succtssive display of seasonable
attire not elsewhere to be met with. L. Hyam maintains his high
position by invariably selecting frOm the best markets, and by securing
artists of long practice and ability.
There is no novelty, no improvement that L. Hyam does not avail
himself of. The Proprietor's present collection of dress surpasses that
of any preceding season. Each description of dress displays "City "
excellence in material, cut and make—excellence easily distinguish-
able from any and every other class of costume. An inspection'of
the new summer light overcoats, dress coats, frock coats, trousers
and waistcoats, will satisfy parties making the inspection that the
just repute of the city of London (as above asserted) is well upheld by
L. Hyam, who, in addition to superior style and quality in dress, en-
sures to purchasers the advantage of exceedingly moderate prices.
OBSERVE !—L. HYAM begs to state that he has no connexion
with any similar establishment in London. 36, Graccchurch-street,
City (established upwards of 15 years), is the only place of busi-
ness carried on by L. HYAM, where the public can be supplied with
good, durable, and fashionable Clothing, of sound workmanship, at
such economical prices as must defy all competition.

DREADFUL ACCIDENT ON THE LANCASHIRE
AND YORKSHIRE RAILWAY.

PRESTON, THURSDAY.

Another shocking accident has been added to the
long list of fatalities which have recently occurred on
the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway. The casualty
we have now to record, by which two lives were sacri-
ficed, and many others placed in imminent jeopardy,
happened last night at the Lea-gate Station, on the
Preston and Wyre Branch, about three miles from
this town. The particulars following were obtained
from a passenger, an eye-witness of the accident. A
third-class train, consisting of some half-dozen car-
riages, tolerably well filled with passengers, left
Fleetwood at six o'clock, stopping as usual at all the
stations, including Lea-gate, the one nearest to Preston.
Passengers from Blackpool join this train at Poulton-
le-Fylde, there being a branch line from one place
to the other. It should here be stated that the
trains from Fleetwood traverse the rails farthest from the
Lea-gate station. A person was about to leave the train
at Lea-gate, on that side of the carriage next the station,
when one of the officials, seeing his danger (the 6.40 ex-
press from Preston being then in sight), exclaimed " Don't
get out," or " Don't get out on that side." This exclama-
tion of the officer being imperfectly heard by the passengers
in the third-class train, was construed by many into " Get
out," the idea that a collision was impending being engen-
dered in their minds by the whistling of the approaching
express. The consequence was that a sudden panic seized
the passengers, and a score or more made a simultaneous
rush from the carriages—some, in their alarm, clearing
the adjacent fence at a bound. Two of them, however,
were less fortunate—they alighted between the other
pair of rails just as the express came up, and being struck
down by the buffers of the engine, the whole train passed

He has left a widow and large family. Mr. Holden

Preston, was proceeding at Lea-gate when this dispatch
was closed.
