R. HOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52,
Fleet-street, has introduced an entirely new de-
scription of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without
springs, wires, or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble
the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from the ori-
ginals by the closest observer ; they will never change
colour or decay, and will be found 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 gua-
ranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed
teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in masti-
cation.

ATTEMPTED MURDER AND SUICIDE.

A LUNATIC SCALED To'DEATB.

Asylum,
negligence of an attendant at the Pauper Lunatic
Asylum, at York, has been attended with fatal conse-
quences. In May last Mark Darrell, a police-officer,
39 years of age, was admitted a patient into the
asylum. He was suffering from general paralysis,
and was quite demented. On Friday week he was
in a dirty state, and was taken into the bath-
room by William Tracey, an attendant, who had with
him two patients, Amos Randall and John Lincoln, who
were left in charge of Darrell. The cold water tap was
turned on, but no cold water came. The hot water, how-
ever, was in abundance, and the tap was turned and the
water allowed to run until there was a sufficiet quantity
in the bath. Darrell was then placed in the bath by
Lincoln. The water was very hot, and reached up to the
poor fellow's knees. He did not cry out that he was scalded,
as his malady rendered him unsusceptible to pain. He,
however, had felt some pain, for he jumped out of the
bath. His legs were red and blistered. Tracey returned
at the moment, and dressed the poor fellow, who after-
wards had his breakfast, and went into the airing court.
The conduct of Tracey was highly reprehensible. He ought
himself to have washed Darrell, and not left two lunatics
to do it ; and, in addition, he made no report of the scald-
ing to either Henry Brockbank, the head attendant, orthe
medical officers. No further notice was taken of poor
Darrell until half-past two in the afternoon, when be %vas
noticed sitting on a bench in the airing court by Francis
Porter, a farm attendant. His trousers were doubled up,
his stockings were down, and his legs were red and
inflamed. The case was then reported to the medical
officers, and the man was taken to the infirmary, where
he remained until his death, which took place on Sunday
morning. In the opinion of both of the medical atten-
dants the death of the deceased was caused by the scald-
ing. The jury of the coroner's inquest called to investigate
the cause returned a verdict that the deceased had been
accidentally scalded, through the great neglect of the two
attendants, Brockbank and Tracey. Immediately after
the deceased was scalded, Tracey was discharged from his
situation.

DEAD WRIOIIT OF RAILWAY TRAINS.

The newspapers are exercised by the statement
of Mr. Houghton, of the London and North-
Western Railway, that for every passenger taken
over the line the company mores two tons of matter.
The passenger and his luggage weighs about two
hundred-weight, but the total weight of the train is
on the average two tons for each passenger. This
fact is: however, no justification for high fares; a
remedy must be found. Railway engineers could
lessen the weight of the engines and carria:;es, but
the remedy chiefly lies in the increase of the number
of passengers and trains. kn engine weighing
thirty tons will take a thousand passengers, but a
train usually carries from sixty to seventy passen-
gers only. Give the public greater facilities for
travelling, and the railway companies will no longer
have to complain that nineteen-twentieths of the
weight they move is unprOfitable.

As Woolwich Dockyard will he closed on the 18th inst.,
a large number of artisans drew their last week's pay,
on Saturday last, when a most painful feeling of
despair seemed to pervade the whole town of
Woolwich, as well as Plumstead and Charlton. Of
the established hands who left on Saturday, 160,
who are chiefly shipwrights, will be removed to Ports-.
month, and the others will be shifted to different yards
this week. Mr. J. Trickett, Chief Engineer, is to be re-
moved to Keyhaan Yard ; and Mr. Saunders, the Master
Shipwright, is expected to be shifted to Pernbrok-e.,
Mr. G. Bannister, Inspector of Shipwrights, has been
superannuated on £BO per annum, and Mr. W. Clarke,
Inspector of Caulkers, on £77. At least half the houses
in some parts of the town are ticketed "To let " or " To
be sold." Altogether a seriously depressed feeling Nr-
vades all classes at Woolwich and in the neighbouring
towns.

GERMAN NORTH POLE EXPEDITION.

Lieutenant Payer, who accompanies the German North
Pole Expedition in a scientific capacity, has sent back an
interesting account of their first experiences. For the
first two weeks they were detained by contrary winds it
the middle of the North Sea, and it was not until the
night of the 12th of July, that they met with the first
ice. It was only a whitish blue mass, some three cubic
fathoms in size, but this herald of the pack ice was sufficient
to rouse them all from their sleep and bring them or
deck. During the first three weeks ships were constantly
seen on the horizon, but since then they look in vain for a
sail. When the west wind divided the ice, the voyagers
intended to steer through the pack ice westwards for
Pendulum Island. Gelgraphical discovery is the princi-
pal purpose of the expedition. It is proposed to winter
between 80 and 85 degrees north latitude, and make
sledge expeditions into the interior of Greenland. If the
plan succeeds, they will approach the coasts of what Kane
believed to be an open polar sea.

TIIE EAST CIIESIJIRE ELECT:ON.

Mr. Cunliffo Brooks, the Conservative candidate
for East Cheshire, has commenced his contest
against Sir E. W. Watkin by addressing a select
party of his political supporters. He told his hearers
that ho was prepared to make any sacrifices on
behalf of his party if they would only support
him. Money, time, and convenience he would give up
so long as they fought with him. Tuis very unselfis'i
announcement provoked great enthusiasm; and Mr.
Brooks was immediately acce.o•prl ns the candidate.
Sir Edward Watkin is rather hea 1 of his opponent.
He has long ago been "accepted," and is now daily
addressing public meetings in different parts of the
county.

TESTIMONIAL TO MR. SIIERIDANOLP.
The idea of presenting a testimonial to Mr. Sheri-
dan, M.P., " for his services in the cause of life
assurance," has met with scant favour at the
hands of the Wolverhampton Town Council.
At their last meeting the Corporate bod♦
point-blank refused to hear read a communi-
cation soliciting subscriptions which had been sent
to the mayor. That they might not, however,
appear to be wholly ungenerous, an alderman and a
councillor said they would not mind handing over to
the testimonial fund a couple of Albert policies
which were in their possession.

parcels of cargo, has arrived here. Her dates are
—Valparaiso, August 3 ; Callao, 13th ; Panama,

Atrato had two cases of yellow fever since leaving
St. Thomas, the third officer and stewardess, Mrs..
Moore. The latter died on the night of the 126,
but the third officer is convalescent. The Atrato
was detained in quarantine, and has been sent to
the Motherbank. She left here at 8 a.m. with
Captain Revett ill with low fever and ague. Seve-
ral cases of Chagres fever had occurred among the
crew during the passage. The passengers were all
well throughout. The mails were landed here, and
58 sacks were forwarded by the 8.40 train.

ARTIFICIAL ISLANDS.

-----
The Government and the Elder Brethren of the
Trinity House are considering a project for establish-
ing a line of telegraphic vessels between the Scilly
Islands and Ushant. Submarines lines would connect
them with the coast on either hand; so that ships
arriving "in soundings " from long voyages would
be announced at their ports while yet fifty or sixty
miles from the shore. Frequently a whole fleet of
" homeward-bounds " is caught by easterly gales
in the entrance of the Channel, and there detained.
Of such vessels the " floating station " would give
news, and it would report where steam was wanted.
Moreover, it would have on board stores of cables
and anchors, with articles of ordinary necessity •
and it is thought that the station might be used
for the transfer of passengers from homeward-
bound vessels to powerful local steamers plying
between the " floating islands" and the harbours in
the vicinity. .No great difficulty is apprehended in
mooring these mid-sea stations with mushroom
anchors, or in making arrangements to lighten the
drag upon so long a scope of chain. Captain Barron,
the projector, has no doubt about the success of the
scheme, and if he is not too sanguine he will confer
an i mmense benefit upon shipowners and Lloyd's,
and upon all persons who have friends expected
home.
London, England, 1869-01-29

THE NEW LAW COURTS.

Another letter from Sir Charles Trevelyan appears
in the Times on the subject of the new law courts.
He refers to the numerous communications that have
been made by various writers who test the correct-
ness of his proposal. In reply to the observation
which has been made that the area of his proposed
site is 330,000 ft., Sir Charles declares that it contains
440,500 superficial feet, or rather more than 101 acres,
without including any portion of the Embankment.
It will not be necessary for the Metropolitan Rail-
way to take so much of the Embankment as has
been supposed, because while it has hitherto had free
scope, it will now be compelled to take no more of the
Linnankment than it really requires. The tendency
of the arrangement in progress for the law is towards
the decentralisation of the system of judicature, and
therefore any site that is large enough for the
purposes of the present day is likely to be more than
large enough twenty years hence. Sir Charles
declares that there is no fear of our having
an "overgrown building" with Somerset House
en one side and the Temple on the other.
As for the risk of "wandering through a
labyrinth of offices," there could not be a more
simple or easily understood plan, and the
oblong form of the Embankment site will
permit of greater development, and remedy a
defect of Mr. Street's plan, which was unavoidable
on the old square site. Sir C. Trevelyan concludes
by declaring that it is a lamentable fact that the
cost of the old site and approaches has been under-
estimated, and that five minutes' inspection of the
papers and plans will convince the incredulous.

FOREIGN NOTES.

EURICEY AND GREECE.

The Patrie, which has been generally well informed on
Eastern matters, notifies "a slight amelioration" in the
gloomy intelligence from Athens. As, however,
the news given by this semi-official paper was
of the gloomiest possible character, a " slight
amelioration" leaves much to be desired. The
bias of public opinion greatly inclines to the unfavourable
view of the situation. One most improbable rumour has
gained credence at Paris, and is deemed by the Indepen-
dance Beige of some import. It is to the effect
that there is an understanding between Greece and
the 'United States. Finding no help elsewhere, the Athens
Cabinet has applied at Washington, and the American
Government is not indisposed to lend Greece maritime aid
if an island in the lEgean Sea be ceded in return. A war
with Turkey during the present economical fever which
has seized all parties in America is very unlikely, if not
altogether impossible. The rumour may, however, have
something in it;
Greece may obtain a loan from America.
She will experience difficulty in getting one anywhere
else.

GOOD NEWS FOR INVESTORS.

- - -
Just as investors are reduced to the depths of
despair for want of a sound undertaking in which to
embark their money, an announcement is made of a
new telegraph line to India, vid the Red Sea, with a
capital of £550,000. It is really astonishing,
cons:dering the miserable failure and mismanage-
ment of the land line to India, that this undertaking,
so often talked of, has not been carried out before.
It was supposed that a Government guarantee would
be required. But there appears to be no necessity
for this, judging from the announcement that nearly
the whole of the capital was subscribed before the
project was made known to the public.

CRIMINAL LUNATICS.

It is universally acknowledged that there are grave
anomalies in the present state of the law with regard
to criminal lunacy. The Howard Association hopes
to obtain a Royal Commission on the subject,
and has issued a paper containing some very
striking facts and statistics. The Howard Com-
mittee refer to the evils of the present
system, by which medical men are cross-examined by
counsel whose object is not to elicit the truth, but to
obtain replies favourable to their clients. Private
interests, again, often lead to the employment of
medical witnesses as party advocates. The proper
method would be to employ disinterested experts
appointed by the Government. In capital
cases involving lunacy there is special irregu-
larity. Statistics prove that insanity prevails
extensively among the convict and criminal classes.
Out of 004 persons tried for murder in England and
`Vales in ten years, 108 were legally found insane.
Sixty-four per cent. of the inmates of our criminal
lunatic asylums became insane after sentence. At
Millbank there were officially reported last year 34
convicts certified as insane, 218 other mental cases,
and a number of epileptic prisoners. These figures
certainly demand attention.
