TREATISE on the THEORY and PRACTICE
of MUSIC AL COMPOSITION. By G. W. ROIINER.
5* The First Part contains an exposition of scales and intervals ;
of the fundamental cnnsonant and dissonant chords ; and of the
other various harmonic combinations which enter into the musical
system: it treats' of cadences; of transition and modulation; of
rhythmic and tonal structure ; of passing-notes and arpeggiatura ;
and of the adaptation of music to words. The practice is shown by
copious examples, which include some elaborate compositions
amongst them a double chorus in eight real parts. Numerous exer-
cises are given for the student's practice, and a Key to them accom-
panies the book.
t The Second Part treats entirely of COUNTERPOINT. The
student is instructed in that system which admits the use of those
intervals only which belong to the diatonic series of the two modes,
and prohibits all dissonances except such as arise through suspen-
sions and passing-notes : he is at the same time made acquainted
with those modifications of the system required to meet the intro-
duction of chromatic progressions and fundamental dissonances, the
essential properties of contrapuntal composition being still pre-
served. The text is copiously exemplified ; several of the ex-
amples are adapted to words : the part concludes with a double
quartet for voices. Conciseness has in each part been aimed at,
not, however, at the expense of any details that might be useful to
either Vie teacher or the student.

LOSS OF TEETH.
A NEW and very curious invention connected with Dental
Surgery has been introduced by Mr. HOWARD, of 17, George-street,
Hanover-square; it is the production of an entirely NEW DESCRIP-
TION OF ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires, or
ligatures. They so perfrct)y resemble natural teeth, as not to be
distinguished from 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 ex-
traction of any Teeth or Roots, or any painful operation, and will
support and preserve the Teeth that are loose, and is guaranteed 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.

This work contains a plain and complete description of the ana-
tomy and physiology of the reproductive organs, and of their relative
conditions in health and disease. The author, who has taken the
highest medical honours, as evidenced by the diplomas and testimo-
nials inserted in the work, is the only legally qualified medical man
who has exclusively, and for many years, devoted his studies to
the treatment of these complaints. He may be consulted with ad-
vantage by all those whose constitutions may have become debili-
tated threisgh secret practices acquired is youth. or by the excesses
of later years, whereby the pleasures of life are marred, the objects
of marriage frustrated, and existence itself rendered a term of un-
ceasing misery and regret.

NATIONAL CLUB.—We have much gratification in
announcing that a meeting of the Parliamentary members of
this club was held on Thursday, at the Club Hoe se, Old Pa.
lece-yard, to decide on the course to be adopted on the second
reading of the Ecclesiastical Titles Assumption Il ill, when a
resolution was passed expressive of a determinati on to press
for an immediate and efficient measure. The m eeting was
numerously attended, and the most perfect unanin city of gen•
timent prevailed. As their number now is npwar ds of 40, it
is impossible that their combined action can be i vithout its
influence at the present momentous crisis.—llertd.
