MR. 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.

THE TICHBORNE BARONETCY.

It was recently announced that the claim made by
a returned Australian colonist to the Tichborne
baronetcy- had collapsed, that the claimant had tacitly
acknowledged an attempt to swindle by going abroad,
and that the real baronet was prepared to prosecute
him as soon as he returned. The Star now contra-
dicts this report, repeats that the " claim will shortly
be investigated by a court of law," and declares that
the gentleman in question " has gone abroad on the
advice of his counsel, solely for the purpose of
collecting additional evidence in support of his
case."

AUSTRIA.

An election speech by Count Andrassy contains some
assurances which give it all the importance of a manifesto.
The Hungarian Minister scatters to the winds the ru-
mours which had been so generally received respecting
violent hostility between him and Count Beust. Further,
he exhorts Hungarians to be satisfied with the constitu-
tional victory they have won. The only argument against
the arrangement with Austria—that Hungary have no
voice in foreign affairs—is a fallacy. By the system of
parliamentary delegations, the Diet enjoys a powerful
influence in the direction of the foreign policy of the em-
pire. The electors seem to have believed Count Andrassy,
for they have given his party a majority of 130.

THAMES.

COWARDLY ASSAULT.—John Fairbrass, a sawyer, and
Henry Gorman, a potuLtn, were brought before Mr. Ben-
son, charged with violently assaulting Patrick Briant, a
labourer, of No. 11, High-street, Bromley.
The complainant was passing along the Mile-end-road
last night at half-past 11 oclock, iu company with his
wife and a young man, his son. They were interfering
with no one, were quite sober, and were on their way
home, when the prisoners insulted them, and one
of them demanded of the son " What are you going to do
with that woman ?" He said " That is my mother." The
prisoners then struck Briant, his wife, and his son.
The woman's eye was blackened yb the blow she re-
ceived. John Briant was struck in a cowardly manner
while ho was down. The police interfered, and the pri-
soners were captured.
Mr. Benson said that Henry Gorman had committed a
cowardly assault, and fined him 205., and in default twenty
days' imprisonment; and Fairbrass, 103., or seven days'
imprisonment.

ITALY.

in is announced that the disturbances produced by the
meal tax have resulted in the deaths of thirty people and
the wounding of sixty ; but the correspondent of the
Standard estimates that not less than 200 have been
placed hors de c-rnbat. A Rome correspondent of the
Weekly Register gives a very serious account of the discon-
tent in several provinces. The situation in Naples, says
this writer, is very uncertain, because the increase in
the price of bread, consequent upon the new tax, is simply
a great addition to privations which were already severe.
But the climax of disaffection is reached in the Marches
and Umbria, the Papal districts which were annexed in
1860-61. " Although the resistance has been small in com-
parison to the revolt that is preparing, it has been more
than enough to indicate the bitter hatred of the population
to the rulers it was foolish enough to prefer to the Pope eight
years ago. All is now changed, and at Ceuto especially
the bust of Pius IX. was carried in triumph round the
town to the cry of ' Viva it Pontifice.' " The Democrats
are another element of discord and danger. The writer
believes that a second Garibaldian invasion will be followed
by the occupation of Umbria and the Marches on the
part of the French troops. It may be added that this
estimate of the results of the meal tax is the estimate of
a Papal supporter, and is much in excess of that given in
other quarters.

WESTMINSTER.

POLICE rRACTICE.—On the magistrate taking his seat
this morning, Richard Bourke, a solicitor's clerk, said he
wished to withdraw a charge of felony he had made
against a woman, and he at the same time intimated that
there was a charge against himself. _ . .

Jane Alton was then put into the dock charged with
robbing him of a sovereign.
Having withdrawn the charge, she was liberated, and
Richard Bourke himself stood forward, the charge against
him being that of drunk and incapable of taking care of
himself.

Police-constable 324 B said that after charging the
woman defendant was put out of the station. As he
created a disturbance at the door he was locked up.
Hr. Arnold—l should think from what you say that the
defendant ought to have been charged with being drunk
and disorderly. If he was drunk and incapable surely his
charge of felony would not have been taken.
Defendant—l had been with some friends and hap-
pened to take some punch, which I found was taking an
effect upon me. I called a Hansom to convey me home,
and this young woman jumped in after me, and when I
went to pay the cabman she took a sovereign out of my
hand. I told the cabman to drive to the station.
Mr. Arnold—What was the disturbance defendant was
making?
Constable—lie wished to withdraw the charge if she
would give him back his sovereig i or half of it.

Sergeant llopton, who took the charge of felony, was
questioned by the magistrate. lie said that as the woman
admitted having the sovereign ho locked liar up.
Mr. Arnold—What did she say ?
Sergeant—She said lie gave it to her.
Mr. Arnold—That's not admitting st:•aling it.
Sergeant—ile persisted in charging her.
Mr. Arnold—Defendant is fined ss. for being drunk.

PORTUGAL.

The struggle in Portugal between the Executive and the
Legislature has terminated for a time in the defeat of the
latter. The Chambers passed a vote which left the
Ministry no alternative but to resign. The country was
at once plunged into a Ministerial crisis of unusual uncer-
tainty and peril. It did not appear that the Legislature
possessed the confidence of the people, for a deputation of
the commercial men of Lisbon took the extraordinary
course of waiting upon the King and requesting the rein-
stating of the Cabinet and the dissolution of the Chambers.
The sovereign has at length taken this advice. The
Ministers have returned to power, and the Chambers, it
may be presumed, will be dissolved.

BOMANISM IN SCOTLAND.

Is Romanism increasing in Presbyterian Scotland ?
A few days ago we mentioned the secession of Mr.
Robertson, formerly an elder of the Established Kirk
at Dundee. Previously to this the Marquis of Bute
bad seceded. Now we learn that " the Catholics at
Alloa, Clackmannanshire, have purchased a hand-
some cruciform church from the Anglicans for £600."
Anglicanism must have been in a bad way to let a
" handsome cruciform church" go for such a sum as
that.
