A NEW DISCOVERY IN TEETH:

MR. HOWARD, Surgeon Dentist, 52, Fleet-
Street, has introduced an ENTIRELY NEW DESCRIP-
TION of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires, or
ligatures. They so perfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be
distinguished fl•om the originals by the closest observer; they will
never change colour or decay, and will be found very superior to any
teeth ever before used. This method does not require the'extraction
of roots, or any painful operation, and will support and preserve
teeth that are loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and
mastication ; and, that Mr. Howard's improvement may be within
reach of the most economical, Ito has flied his charges at the lowest
scale possible. Decayed teetk rendered sound and useful in mastica-
tion.—l 2, Fleet-street. At Home from Ten till Five.

" Sir,—Twelve years ago I became afflicted with Rheumatic GAIL
I procured the best advice possible, but without deriving benefit ; and
the doctors recommended me to go to the Stamford Infirmary, where
I continued twelve weeks, and left It without obtaining any benefit,
and all hope of relief had vanished.
" This hopeless state of things continued until a friend advised me
to try Elair's Pills. I then lost no time in sending to Mr. Mortlock,
of Stamford, for a box, and by the time I had taken that quantity I
got rid of one crutch. I then sent . far another box, which enabled
me to throw away the other, and, thank God, I have never since had
such an attack.

THE STORY OF LILLY DAWSON. By MRS. CROWE
Authoress of " Susan Hopley," &c.—" Susan Hopley" made
herself great fame, not only as a story of tragic incident in
the original form, but when dramatised and set upon the
stage. "Lilly Dawson" may, doubtless anticipate a similar
success. The characters have the merit of force in their
drawing, and the difference between the commission of crime
and the immediate consequences among the lower classes
and those of a superior station, are delineated with much ta-
lent. Mrs. Crowe has exhibited much skill and ability in
the construction and development of her story. The natural
is her forte, and she is the Spagnoletta of novelists.—Literary

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE IN DRURY-LANE. La st even-

in the premises 26, Brownlow-street, Drury-lane

conjointly by Mr. Lovell, a coach carver, „ occupied
Bickerton,
and a woman named Warren. The fire commenced in i a
back room on the first floor. The alarm being given,the
parties in the first and second stories effected a safe retreat' •
Mrs. Warren, however, was unable to descend, and finding
that all escape was cut off, the poor creature made 14 r :in-
pearance at the front window, supplicating the crowd to
assist her. She had not been in that situationmany minutes
before the flames entered her room, when she got upon the
window sill and was about to precipitate herself to the ground.
The parties cried out to her not to throw herself out, and
they would fetch a ladder. Some few minutes elapsed
before one could be procured, during which time the female
was seen hanging from the ledge of the window. Upon
placing the ladder it would reach only to the second floor. A
drayman courageously mounted, and caught Mrs. Warren in
his arms, and carried her down in safety. In a brief peried
several engines arrived, and the firemen set to work, but it
was half-past eight before the flames could be conquered.
By that time, that portion of the house where the fire begun '
was burned out, and the second and thi d
r floors, d

house was extensively damaged. Mr. Lovell being from

GRAIN RIOTING IN ROSS-SHIRE.
(From the Ross-shirt Advertiser.)
We regret that the spirit of opposition to the ship-
ment of grain in this county, lately manifested, has since
our last been continued. On Siturday last, some carts
containing a quantity of meal, intended for being shipped
at Dingwall, to make up a cam for Lachbroom, were
stopped, and the boatman who vas to take the meal to
the vessel was threatened with volence, if be would not
desist. On Monday a vessel artved in the canal, to take
in a cargo of grain, which, haying become known to
some men trenching near, thay eft work and hied to the
vessel, the master of which they this atened, and warned
him against taking the grain on Board. On that day the
magistrates, having reason to ler a breach of the public
peace, resolved to swear in speial constables, and the
inhabitants were summoned secordingly; but few at-
tended, and another meetiniCaas called for seven o'clock
in the evening for the same ptrpose. This meeting was
attended by a large number
.sf persons, but few con-
stables were sworn. Prey* 'loss and Bailie Rose ex-
plained to the meeting thelneeessity of.preserving the
public peace, and the imProfriety of preventing the
shipment of grain. Mr. Colin Munro, who was sending
the meal to Lochbroom, stead that be wanted no as-
sistance from constables or otters to ship the meal, as
he wished to avoid disturbance and Wonld not ship any
if the people were against it. Seeerfeorsons objected
A'o being made constables for the pment of grain,
though they were desirous, atjthe setae time of.pre-
serving the peace. They thotglii,tise grain • should not
be shipped while there was t searaiSrof meal in the
country. While this meetinf was irking held, a great
crowd congregated in the sreet, opposite the Court-
house, who occasioned a gooddeal of noise; and when
the meeting dispersed, crowds paradedthe town in all
directions, cheering and hootisg. 1
A mob of women and c:llPdata was immediately formed.
-some of whom threw stones, and others proceeded to
Mr. Munro's house, and the helm -ef Mr. M`Donald,
Bridgned,where some panes atglasiwere broken, .A bon--
fire was lighted close to the vessel, which had arrived in
the morning, and a party was set to watch in case any
grain should be shipped. 'The magistrates went through
the town, and did every thing they tould to preserve the
peace, and the crowd gradua'ly disappeared.
The magistrates again net on Tuesday, to swear in
constables, but few chose to come forward, and they
were consequently unable to perfect their arrangements.
About eight o'clock in the evening the streets' became
crowded, and small bodies of people loitered about,
whistling and shouting, while a horn was blown by one
evidently employed for the purpose of collecting .the
mob. Having met at the east end of the High-street,
the mob proceeded to Mr. Stewart's granary.,_ on the
Greenhill, where there were about sixty quarters of
grain, consisting of wheat, cats, and barley, in order to
mix the same, that it might not be taken out of the
country. Captain Cameron, who resides in the neigh-
boerhood, addressed the mob on the folly of their con-
duct, and advised then tc disperse. They, however,
went on to the granary, and soon commenced to break
open the doors. Au entrance having been effected by
pulling the easter doer of tle
barn asunder, h
te crowd
ims on an upper flat, entered
rushed in, but as the granary
from the barn, by means of a ladder, the invaders were
for a time prevented from getting at the grain. At this
time Bellies Rose and Wirer, and the Procurator.
Fiscal arrived, and Mr. Rose tt great length addressed
the crowd, amounting to several hundreds, cautioning
them against acts of violence, and assuring them that
meal would be provided. This would have had a good
effect, but some rather notorious brawlers here inflamed
the rabble, and some female orators having added their
mite, by no means inconsiderable, the impression of
the Baillie's advice was not long felt. The barn having
been taken possession of by the Fiscal and officer;
he crowd was cleared out; and the doors 'nailed up.
The magistrates had no sooner gone away, than the
crowd' renewed their attack on the barn, and forced
themselves in in spite of all the exertions of the officers
to prevent them. Having got possession of the premises,
they proceeded to break open the door of the granary,
which was soon effected, and the corn was immediately
mixed, and of course a very great deterioration occa-
sioned.
Having accomplished this disgraceful outrage, and
maltreated the officers, the crowd went, in a highly
excited state and making prodigious noise, to the vessel
at the canal, to which we have already alluded, and
having awakened the master and crew, some went on
board, and the rest towed the vessel to the bottom of
the canal, where the tide having left her, the vessel
grounded, and so they could not put her to sea. The
crowd then paraded the streets towards Strathpeffer
toll-bar, intending, it is said, to destroy Mr. Al:Donald',
granary at Bridgend, but it being near four o'clock
in the morning, and being aware that they well watched
they, after quantities of cheering and hooting, retired.
Vice think it right to state that these riotous and out
rageous proceedings were perpetrated principally by
females and boys, under the more cautious leadership 01
a few whose names are well known. and who will most
likely meet the punishment of their offences.
On Wednesday the magistrates had an early consillta-
tints, and they again summoned persons to be sworn as
constabl, s, and at last succeeded. In the evening nearly
100 took the oath ; the town was divided into three dis
tricts, and the constabulary went to thi.ir diff,rent sta-
tions, each of the magistrates heading
a division. Pre-
vious to this,
Provost Reiss 'announced, that with the
view of satisfying the people, the magistrates had ar-
ranged, that oatmeal and barleymeal should be provided
at the prices of Is. Bd, and ls. 4d. per peck, till the county,
store was opened. Upon this .a vote of thanks was given
by acclamation to the Provost and magistrates, and Mr.
Colin Munro having given an ord, r for 20 bolls of oat-
meal and some barleymeal at' prime cost, to the magis-
trates, thanks were also tendeted-to him. There was a
good deal of noise during the'fiirtit, but nothing serious.
Three p,‘rsons were apprehended • for disorderly conduct,
and one of those implicated in.breaking open the barn
and granary, was also apprehended. On Thursday, two
of these women were sentenced to short imprisonments,
but were rescued on their way to the prison, by some of
the people trenching near it.. The others were lodged
in prison last night, one for three days, and the other
for further examination. The men who rescued the

women have been this day apprehended.
We are glad to say that last night the town was as
quiet as usual; and though the special constables were
on duty, there was no occasion for their interference.
About three o'clock this afternoon, 100 men of the 27th,
under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel Goodman,
arrived here from Invergordon. Accommodation has
been provided for them in a large house belonging to
Mr. Colin Stewart. They brought 13 prisoners from
Invergordon, amongst whom were eight females.
Having said so much as to the violent proceedings
here, we have little room to notice what took place at
other places in the county. Shipping of grain com-
menced at Invergordon on Tuesday, under military pro-
tection. On that day the Sheriffs Met at Invergordon,
with whom were Sir ,Temes Mackenzie, Tulloch, Ord,
General Munro of Teaninieb, Mr. Fowler of RadderY,
&e. &c., and a large detachment of the 27th having
come, a few carts of grain were shipped, and the carts
on return were smashed to pieces. On Wednesday the
soldiers had to escort .the carts from a distance, and
the people having pressed on the soldiers at Invergordon,oron,
four persons were wounded, but not severely,
bayonet. A great deal of excitement naturally existed,
but we are glad to say, that yesterday all was quiet,
and that a great deal orgrain was shipped without the
interposition of the military, which was also continued
to-day.
The district from Alnes to Fowlis Point has been noisy
during the week, and a good deal of violence
weredisplay
ed.
The granaries akthe Point, Balcony, and Assynt,
broken into and the grain mixed. The quantity so dete-
riorated cannot be less than 300 quarters at Fowlis,
where, we are informed, the corn was also mixed with
some refuse of coal and lime.
We trust that we now see the end of these riotous
proceedings, which we believe were prompted by the
fear of famine and the high prices of food. Supplies
were promised, and depots were to be opened, but these
steps were staved off from time to time, till the people
lost confidence and brooded over disappointment. How-

cies of Providence nugatory, and so far narrows the sup-
ply of food.

Among the many discoveries that characterise the
present age, nothing has contributed so much to the comfort
and ease of the community, nor conferred such a:boon upon
suffering humanity, as that important discovery and never-
failing remedy for gout and rheumatism, Blair's Gout and
Rheumatic Pills. Thousands would join in the observation
of an elderly female, as made to Mr. Fogget, the agent at
Thirak—" that she would rather be without butter to her
bread and sugar to her tea, than Blair's Pills." This im-
portant medicine is sold by all medicine venders. Price
