her Royal Highness The Duchess of Kent.
TTHOMAS and HOWARD'S SUCCEDA-
Isl/RUM for Stopping Decayed Teeth, however large the
cavity. It is placed in the tooth in a soft state, without any pressure
er pain, and soon becomes as hard as the enamel, and will remain
firm in the tooth for many years, rendering extraction unnecessary,
and arresting the further progress of decay. All persons can use this
Succedanxum themselves with ease, as full directions are enclosed.
Price 2s. 6d. Prepared only by Thomas and Howard, Surgeon Den-
tists, 64, Berners-street, Oxford-street, who will send it into the
country free by post. Sold by Savory, 220, Regent-street ; Sanger,
150, Oxford-street ; Butler, 4, Cheapside ; Johnson, 68, Comhill ;
and all Medicine Vendors in the kingdom. Mr. Howard continues to
supply the loss of teeth on his new system of self-adhesion, without
springs or wires. This method does not require the extraction of
any teeth or roots, or any painful operation whatever, and is less
expensive than others. Mr. Howard, Surgeon Dentist, 64, Bemers-
street, Oxford-street. At home from 11 till 4.

EXPLOSION AND Loss OF LIFE BY FIREWORKS.—
On Wednesday last an explosion took place at Bedford,
in the shop of a chemist named Prior. The window
shutters were forced into the street, and on the police
forcing open the door, the brother of the occupier of the
shop was found with his clothes in flames. A child was
thrown out of the window into the arms of some one in
the street, and sustained no injbry. Mr. Fowler Prior
also made his escape from the window, and was assisted
down into the street with safety. The people com-
menced throwing water upon the flames in the shop and
back room, and removing combustible and the most
valuable articles. Mr. Sweatman, keeper of a beer-
house, daringly removed a barrel of gunpowder and a
box of fireworks to his own house. Soon aftar an entry
was made into the shop, Mr. Apthorpe, grocer, per-
ceived something like a log of wood lying in the back
room, and on endeavouring to remove it his hand
slipped, but taking hold of another part he was able to
drag it out of the ruins, when it proved to
be a human body, quite dead, and it was
ascertained that the hand of Mr. Apthorpe had
slipped down the leg on his first hold, from
the flesh being almost burnt to a cinder. The body, found
to be that of a youth named Smith, was removed to the
cage, and presented a most shocking appearance, not a
feature being distinguishable, the limbs contracted, and
the trunk one black mass. The circumstances which led
to this catastrophe are as follows:—A person named
Fowler Prior, the occupier of the premises, retired to

in the scale of nature, they bold an intermediate posi-

derives its food immediately from inorganized matter ;
but many prey upon other animals, which have, in the
first instance, been nourished by vegetable matter. It
has been, therefore, well said, that, " if plants ceased

kicked and trampled upon by three or four of the animals
that there is little hope of recovery. Shortly afterwards,
on Blackfriars-bridge, a child named Cothing was tossed
by an ox from the same drive, and sustained such in-
juries as to endanger its life.
OR Friday morning last an accident occurred on
the Eastern Counties Railway, near Chadwell, caused by
a truck used for conveying rails or plates to different
parts of the line requiring repair being left on the " up"
tine. The truck was smashed to pieces by the engine of
a goods train, and the engine itself much damaged, but,
fortunately, no one was injured by the accident. Three
" plate layers" were taken into custody for neglect of
duty in leaving the truck on the line instead of putting
it into a " siding," and were committed to the House of
Correction at Ilford, one for six weeks, and the other
two for one month each.
