" 8 F TEETH.
A NEW and very curious invention connected with Dental
surgery has been introduced by Mr. HOWARD, of 17, George-street,
El anover -square ; it is the production of an entirely NEW DESCRIP-
TION OF ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires, or
ligatures. They so perfrctly resemb,e na`ural teeth, as not to be
distinguished 'from the originals by the closest observer. They will
never change colour or decay, and will be found eery superior to
any teeth ever before ust d. This method does not require the ex-
traction of any Teeth orHoots, or any painflil operation, and will
support and preserve the Teeth that ars loose, and is guarauteed to
restore articulation and mastication. The invention is of importance
to many persons, and those who are interested in it should avail
themselves of Mr. Howard's NEW DISCOVERY.

In the Rouse of Lords last night,
The E. of ST. GERMANS moved the second reading
of the Marriages Bill. The Noble Earl c A-gentled that
marriage with a deceased wife's sister was not prohibited
in Scripture, and quoted largely from authorities both-
thrological and legal in support of his argument.
The Archbishop of CANTRRRURY opposed the Bill on
religious grounds, and moved that it should be read a
second finis that day six montha.

EQUITABLE, FIRE °FMB.
• Capital-500,0P0L
(Incorporated under 7 and 8 Vict., cap. 110.)
The leading principles of this Office are - Moderate and equitable
Rates ot Premium for each class ot risk—Annual division of. Profits.
The difficulty of collecting the elements on which to proportion
Premium to risk in Insurance against Loss by Fire has been so
great, that the rates at present charged are more the result of guess
than calculation.
It has been found by experience, that the total annual losses of the
different Established Companies have not been proportionate to the
amount of annual Premiums received by each.
It is of the highett importance, both to the Insured and Insurers,
that such an anomaly should cease, and an approximation to the
'true risk be made. To secure this object the Equitable Fire Insu-
rance Company is established.
The true rate of Premium for Fire Insurance can only be ap-
?roached through Classification and Average, which has not hitherto
been sufficiently acted n, or systematically applied. -
Whatever be the nominal rate, the bonus or return periodically to
the Insured will determine the true Premium equitably payable, as
security against loss tor so great a calamity as fire, and the Insurer
is largely interested in this tuestien, and will consult his interest by
supporting a system where, by a careful combination of Classifica-
tion and Avenge, the Premium will be proportioned to the risk.
The Equitable Fire Office will, by a constant anal' sib of its own
experience, from time to ti e, adopt such rates of Premium u the
nature of the risk may justify. and will decline to enter into arrange-
ments as regards tariffs with other offices.
With this view an annul investigation will be made into each
class of risk, and a return of one moiety, or fifty per cent. of the nett
excess will be made to all classes of Insurers whose Policies have
been in force for three years. _ _ .

[PRICE SD.

Tours to Poitiers, 101 kilometres (63 English miles)
in length, was opened to the public on July 1, 1851,
and it required immense exertion on the part of the
board of directors to have the iron-way laid down,
the rolling and other stock augmented and the stations
constructed—all within the space of nine months—in
order to attain that object, specifically mentioned
in the Bill which passed the Legislative Assembly
on August 6.. The report specifies the various
works which it was necessary to have thus executed,
and their amount is certainly extraordinary for the
short time allowed. The board, having to choose
between a system of temporary or of permanent con-
struction for the stations, determined on the latter
course as most advantageous for the interests of the
company. In consequence of a clause in the Bill of
Aug. 6, which declares that "the company was to
execute at its own expense all the works still remain-
ing to be adjudicated for the stations," the Minister
of Public Works insisted that the earth-works of
the stations were to be included in the item. This
the company resisted, and on the question being
referred to the Superior Railway Commission
to decide, the decision was given against the
Minister. This was the more important for the
company, as the cost of some of these earth-works
would be considerable—being 50,000 f. at Libourne,
and 300,000 f. at Bordeaux, &c. The works of art,
on the part of the line nearest the city just mentioned,
are all completed, and present every guarantee of
solidity. The section between Libourne may be de-
livered to the company in September; and it is from
that period that the first line of rails is to be laid
down on the whole section between Angouleme to
Bordeaux, adding 133 kilometres (83 English miles)
to the part already open to the public. With respect
to the results of the working, for the year ending
June 30, 1851, as the section between Tours to Poi-
ters was only opened on July 5, its receipts are not
included. It is, however, known that they are
steadily increasing, and more than equal what was
estimated for them. The receipts for the part of the
line between Orleans and Tours
amount to

BERMUDA.

The Bermudian publishes a number of paragraphs
which show that Bermuda is " coming out strong "
as a potato-producing country, and that she is now
actively competing with native growers in the New
York market, one of the cheapest and most extensive
vegetable markets in the world, in the articles of po-
tatoes, onions, and tomatoes. This is certainly a new
turn to West India industry. One of the paragraphs
mentions the superior quality of the potato, as well as
the abundant return from seed planted. A small por-
tion of the crop has reached other colonies (Trinidad,
for example), and the improvement in the quality of
the article, which was formerly good, but rather waxy,
bas been the subject of general remark. We sin-
cerely trust this potato-growing enterprise may be
successful ; and though we doubt the possibility of
the Bermudians finding a sufficiently remunerative
market in the sea board cities of the United States,
where prices at times rule very low, they may cer-
tainly count upon all the West India colonies as cus-
tomers, at rates which will insure them a very consi-
derable annual revenue from this edible. Tnere are
several inbtances of planters reaping fifteen to seven-
teen bushels from one bushel of seed, and ten
bushels from one of seed may be mentioned as a com-
mon occurrence.

ROYAL YACHT SQUADRON REGATTA.
(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
COWES, WEDNESDAY.—The match for the Queen's
Cup on Tuesday was unfortunate in point of wind.
The following yachts started :
The Bacchante, 80 tons.
The Freak, 60 tons.
The Arrow, 84 tons.
The Gondola, 87 tons.

The wind was light from the north and east. The
Arrow took the lead, followed by the Freak, Gondola,
and Bacchante, the wind falling off the Freak got
ahead, but the Arrow rounded the Nab first. The
wind now southerned, and the Freak again took the
lead for a short time, but on passing the station vessel
off Cowes, the Arrow took her old place, and the
Gondola gave in off Yarmouth. The wind again fell
off. They now got a breeze from the north-east, and
on rounding the western station vessel the Freak was
nearly ten minutes astern of the Arrow, and the Bac-
chante forty•six. The contest from that ,time was
considered to be between the Arrow and Freak ; but
how uncertain is fortune ! those vessels stood over to
the north shore for a breeze, each striving to beat the
other, neither thinking one moment about the Bac-
chante; they appeared to have forgotten whom they
were contending against, and that her pilot had won
more matches than any other man. All was light and
bright on the north shore ; a dark cloud hung over
the south. " There's wind under that cloud," said
ddrkie, "let's hug the island." The old free-trader
had watched many a weary night the winds, the
waves; and the Philistines, and foreknew the signs
better. He was right again. Caught a southerly
breeze and passed the starting vessel first, on doing
which he was hailed from her and the yachts, " The
Arrow a-hoy;' but no reply till the word came from
the Royal Yacht Society's secretary, when Corke re-
plied it was the "Baccifaute." It was at this time
very dark, 927 P.M. At 9 39 the Arrow passed, and
her crew could not for some time believe but they
were the first vessel. The Freak arrived at 9 45.
The Arrow, by mistake, rounded the wrong vessel,
in the dark mistaking her for the starting vessel.
THE ROYAL YACHT SOCIETY'S DINNER, AUG. 19.
—The muster to-day was much more numerous than
common, between sixty and seventy noblemen and
gentlemen being present, including the Commodore
and Vice-Commodore of the New York Yacht Club,
4nd a moot agreeable evening was spent, though a
little anti free-trade sauce was served up.

NORTHERN AND EASTERN.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held
yesterday at the Bishopsgate station, Mr. R. Pater-
son in the chair.

Mr. BOURNE, the secretary, read the report.
The CHAIRMAN having moved a resolution, to the
effect that the report be adopted and the dividend
therein announced be declared, _ _

Mr. LECUWORTU said, he perceived by the ac-
counts of the Eastern Counties Railway for the past
half year that they had a net balance of 158,5631.,
and he wished to know what amotnt the company
was entitled to out of it.

The CHAIRMAN said that the total charge of the
Northern and Eastern Company against the Eastern
Counties Company for the half-year ending June
30, 1851, Was 31,523/.

Mr. LECRWORTII inquired what security this com-
pany possessed for the payment half-yearly of the
above amount ?

The CHAIRMAN replied that the guarantee given
was ample security for the punctual payment of the
rent, this company being in the position of land-
lords, and the Eastern Counties Company in that of
tenants.

Mr. LECEIWORTII said he was perfectly satisfied
with the explanatiog.
Resolutions were then passed adopting the report and
declaring the dividends of 5 and 6 per cent.. and re-
electing the retiring directors, Messrs. R. W. Ken-
nard and J. Masterman, jun.
The proceedings concluded with a vote of thanks to
the chairman and directors.

THE GREAT EXHIBITION.
The pollee returns of yesterday exhibit a considerable
falling off from those of Tuesday; and the nine o'clock
experiment, to all appearance, still continues unappie- I
ciated The numbers up to three o'clock were—
At 10 o'clock 4,193
At 11 o'clock - ••• ••• 16.556
At 12 o'clock . 26 849
At 1 o'clock ... ••• ••• 34,248
At 2 o'clock ... ••• ••• 37'954
At 3 o'clock .•. ••• ••• 40,907
At this time the number of persons who had left was
2,494, so that the largest number which the Crystal
Palaoe contained during the day did not reach 40,000.
The sale of season tickets produced 11. 10s. The
money taken at the doors amounted to 2,2171. Bs., mak-
ing a total of 2,2181. 18s. The police report gives the
number of visitors at 44,567.
The rise in the thermometer in the course of the day
has been oonsiderable, being from 62 to 78.
The official announcement with respect to the closing
of the Exhibition does not seem to nave met with uni-
versal approbation, at least so far as the exhibitors
are concerned. Many of them complain that their chance
of receiving their medals, according to the present ar-
rangement, is very remote indeed.
Among the visitors yesterday was a new arrival in
England, M. Baroche, Minister of Foreign Affairs in
France. M. Leon Faucher is also still a daily visitor, as
well as M. Odilon Barrot.

RIN MAD.

The necessity of some provision for guarding the
moneys, papers, and other personal effects of parties
dying intestate, and having no relative in the colony
interested in their preservation and good keeping—
until some heir or creditor of the deceased should
have had time to obtain an order from the court for
the judicial administration of the property—was,
owing to several occurrences, occupying considerable
attention in the public mind.

The annual general meeting of the shareholders of
this company took place at Paris on Saturday, Aug.
