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 'bat are loose, and is gua-
ranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed
teeth stopped and rendered sound and neeful in masti-
cation.

GENERAL LEE AND THE SOUTH.

May Day in the United States of America was marked
by a most auspicious incident. General Lee, after
emerging from the retirement of Lexington, and visiting
Boston for the purpose of promoting a railway to his
native town, travelled onward to Washington. On the
Ist of May he visited President Grant at the White House.
The interview, which lasted an hour, was cf a " strictly
private character," but it is confidently affirmed that the
final conciliation of the South was the topic of discussion
between the two great antagonists of the civil war. It is
noteworthy that the meeting has taken place just at the
time when Virginia is again about to resume her constitu-
tional position amongst the States. It is also noteworthy
that a paper, bearing the title of Southern Opinion, and
representing the principles which gave rise to the civil
war and which prevented reconciliation after the struggle
came to an end, has died of inanition. The proprietor
explains that there is now no " Southern opinion." The
principles which the paper represented are no more, and
their organ must vanish with them.

S7'ATE OF 71RA DE.

MANCHESTER, May 18. —The market for shipping
yarns has been very strong to-day, and a fair busi-
ness has been done at the prices freely obtainable
last week. Spinners look forward to rather more
activity after the holy days. There are a good many
orders in the market, with a disposition to do busi-
ness. In home trade yarns there has been a steady
market, with little or no change in prices since
Friday, and just a moderate business offering.
The impression is that things are not worse
than last Tuesday. For cloths there has been
rather a large general business since last Tuesday
in nearly all descriptions of goods suitable to India
and China ; and, notwithstanding the holidays,
buyers show a disposition to go on but for the ten-
dency to higher prices, which acts as a decided
check to business. Makers, however, are a little
more independent, owing to the orders which have
been booked during the last eight or ten days, and
id. a piece is required as an advance in price in
consequence of many manufacturers being well
under orders. 'There have been some large sales,
but they are exceptions, and the general run of
transactions have been modorate.

aspect as could be desired. During o
the exports of steam coal reached 162,085 tone,
against 190,178 in the previous month, and 182,4415
tons in the corresponding mouth of last year, the
decrease being caused principally by the dulness of
trade, although some difficulty was experienced by
merchants and shippers in obtaining suitable ton-
nage for the more distant ports. 'Tie house coal
trade also shows a falling off.

CLEANSING OLD TOMBS.

Amongst announcements interesting to archaeolo-
gists it was recently stated that a process had been
discovered whereby the old monuments in West-
minster Abbey might, without injury to their form
and beauty, be cleansed from the crust of dirt which
has " disfigured" them for so many years. The
archaeologists have, indeed, been interested. They
have become alarmed. Lovers of ancient monuments
love Westminster Abbey because it is old. If the
things do not look old, one cause of interest will be
removed. Moreover, a dignity of aged repose
marks the place where our mighty men' lie
dead. To cleanse and scrape, to modernise
and paint, will be to spoil. The Times, therefore, is
beseeched to protest against this new proposed
reform.

GIRL GRADUATES.

The "honours division " of the list of successful
women candidates for examination by the London
University has just been published. It contain six

the two others one studied at Bedford College, and
the other at the Ladies' College, Cheltenham.

BAVARIAN ELECTIONS.

The elections in Bavaria are conducted on the "indi-
rect" principle ; the voters nominate direct electors, and
these choose the members of the Chamber of Deputies.
The first and primary process has just been completed, and
the result is a great triumph for the Liberal parties. At
Munich, the choice fell on 255 of the Progressist and 66 of
the Middle Liberals. At Augsburg, Wurzburg, and
Nuremberg, the result is nearly the same. The clerical
party is nowhere in this contest. At Munich it has carried
only twelve direct electors.

EMIGRATION.

Emigration has now been taken up by the Colonial
Society, and a sharp discussion upon the subject took
place at its last meeting. A Mr. John Robinson
read a paper, in which he said that in emigra-
tion was to be found the solution of the great
question of pauperism. lle contended that a well-
devised scheme of emigration should be engrafted
upon the scheme of the Imperial Government,
and advocated the establishment of a colonial body
in England which should watch over the interests
of the colonies.

TIIE CAM.

It was recently stated in a letter by Mr. Hawk-
shaw to the Times that for £2,700 the Cam might
be relieved of its sewage, and made reaP.y suitable
for boating ; without that outlay all expense on other
improvements would be comparatively useless. "It
now appears that instead of 1:2,700, Mr. Hawkshaw
meant 3t27,000, a very different figure. While we
expressed our surprise that the inhabitants ot uam-
bridge were opposed to the smaller tiutlity, we can
hardly wonder that they are rather shy of taxing
themselves to the amount of a sovereign per head.
Perhaps the University Might unite with the Cor-
poration in redeeming the Cam from being an
open sewer, and in making it a really good rowing
river.
London, England, 1869-05-26

THE ELECTION PETITIONS.

Baron Martin and Justices Blackburn and
Willes are to be congratulated. When they under-
took to try the election petitions they had 111 of
them to go through, Fifty-nine Liberals and 52
Conservatives cases were attacked ; and to the
adjudication of these, not without some protests and a
great many grumblings, they set themselves. They
were, however, speedily relieved of 44, for 24
Conservative petitions against Liberals and
20 Liberal petitions against Conservatives—were
withdrawn without being brought before a court.
The Daily News gives a list of the members seated
and unseated by the judges. The LiberalS declared
duly elected number 24, the Conservatives 17. Nine
Liberals have been unseated and 18 Conservatives.
B'sides these there were four special eases. Sire
Sidney Waterlow (Liberal) iias unseated, and was
supplante 1 by Major Walker; Mr. Birley's seat at
Manchester was declared good ; Mr. Hamilton at
Salisbury was duly elected; and Mr. Devereux was
reelected for Wexford after being turned out on
account of an informality on the part of the returning
ollicer. Against the gain of a Conservative seat in
Dumfriesshire, the Liberals are enabled to spew the
substitution of Mr. Miall for Mr. Ripley at Bradford ;
Lord Hyde for Mr. Gwyn at Brecon ; Major Anson
for Mr. Cunliffe at Bewdley ; and Mr. Henry James
for Mr. Serjeant Cox at Taunton. In the case of
the double return at Horsham the Conservative
withdrew, and left the seat to Mr. Hurst, the former
Liberal member.

PARLIAMENTARY RETURNS.

Our parliamentary literature costs the country no
little sum. Ninety thousand pounds were spent in
the session 1807-8 for returns of different kinds,
blue-books, &c. It was suggested some time since
that private returns should be refused unless the
Government felt that they were of real importance.
But though private members swell the list consi-
derably, they do not use their power of moving for
returns to a very exorbitant extent as far as
printing is concerned. Two hundred and
fifty-six non-official returns were issued during
the session, but these were mostly one and
two-page papers ; and as only from a thousand
to two thousand copies were printed, 'the total cost
did not reach five thousand pounds. Where the
outlay occurs is rather in the different Government
offices. Things are overturned, old books have to be
searched, extra clerks have to be employed, and a
most elaborate and time-consuming system of
account-keeping has to be used because, perchance,
some day Mr. Figuremad may ask to have some
unimportant statistics laid before Parliament.
London, England, 1869-05-26

OMAGIT.

A crowded meeting of Presbyterians was held on Tues.
clay in the largest of their churches in Omagh. About
1,500 attended. It was addressed by the chairman, Mr.
Greer (Crown solicitor), the Rev. Messrs. Hanna,
Mitchell, Donnell, Dill, Smith, Lyle, Gilmore, and
others. Resolutions were passed expressing unqualified
disapprobation of the bill, repudiating the statement that
Presbyterians were favourable to it, and calling on the
Lords to reject or amend it.

MORE PERILS OF RAILWAY TRAVELLERS.—A boy named
Ford, respectably connected, was charged with throwing
stones upon the Metropolitan District Railway.
Police-constable William Gulstan, 316 B, said that he
saw the defendant at a little after five last night at Pelham-
place, lit,ightsbridge. There is a bridge there, and the
defendant threw two small donee over it at a train that
was pr.ssing.

Defendant said he was throwing at the wall and the
stones went over by accident.
The constable said that the defendant could soe tho
train passing.

Mr. A ruold—This is a most serious thing ; I really
don't know what is to be done.

Boy's Father—l am very sorry. My son threw at the
wall, and did not mean to do any harm.
Mr. Arnold—That may be true, but ho is not aware of
the mischief ho may do. Ho might injure a person very
seriously. With the speed of the train if a stone truck the
window or entered the carriage it would be like a gunshot.
I must do the best I can to stop this. Defendant is fined
10s. or seven days.

QUIET IN EASTERN EUROPE.

The intelligence from the East of Europe is of a very
pacific character. The Patrie states that not a single
Cretan family remains in Greece, and that the greatest
tranquillity prevails throughout King George's dominions.
In Crete grim-visaged war has so effectually smoothed his
wrinkled front that the Porte has withdrawn nearly the
whole of its troops from the island. From Roumania the
news is not less reassuring. Bratiano, late the Chief
Minister, and the leader of the agitation party, is so die.
couraged by the reaction against him that he has resolved
to take no part in the parliamentary proceedings. Ho
projects a tour of several months' duration.

The horses were paraded in the usual manner,
and.after their preliminary canters were marshalled
by Mr. M'George, the starter. The flag fell, but it
being declared a fahe. start the horses were
recalled, and again put in position. At the
fall of the II ig this time an excellent start was
effected, and all got away together in a cluster, in
which position they remained until the famous
Tattenham corner was reached. Pero Gomez and
The Drummer at this point began to show
in front of the rest, and immediately after
this the pair we have mentioned began
the struggle in earnest, Pretender, however,
being closely in attendance. In this posi-
tion they went on to within a short
distance of the winning-post, the race at this moment
appearing certain either for Pero or the Drummer,
with third honours for Pretender; but within a stride
of two of home Pretender's jockey called upon his
horse, whoanswered the invitation with a splendid
rush, or, more properly speaking, a jump, and

THAMES.

THE CAPTAIN ON A LEE SHORE. —Two smartly -dressed
foreign women, named Louisa Hoffman, aged 2 years,
and Eleanor rosillimine, No. 1, White-horse-court, Royal
Mint-street, were brought before Mr. Benson charged
with stealing a £5 Bank of England note from the person
of, Captain Carl Christian Wallis, master of the ship Har-
mony in the West India Dock.
The prosecutor was on a cruise on shore last night, and
met with the prisoners. He was taken all aback with
their attentions and blandishments. lie treated them with
licinor and went to sundry places with them. All was
bliss, contentment, and goad humour until Le missed a
£5 Bank of England note. He accused them f stealing it.
They made load protestations of innocence, but were
notwithstanding given into custody, and searched. A
few shillings only was found upon them.
Mr. Benson thought it would be useless to commit the
prisoners for tr.al. No grand jury would find a bill
against them, and they must be discharged.

Captain Wuhis —I want my £5 note.
Mr. Benson-1 cannot give it to you. You should select
better company, and act with more discretion.

Captain. Wallis—My £5 note is gone.
Mr. Benson—Yes. (A laugh.) Ho had no doubt the
captain lost the £5 note in the prisoners' house.
Mr. Joseph Smith, solicitor for the prisoner—No, sir,
not in their house.
Mr. Benson—The captain said so. I don't mean to say
it is the case. The prisoners must have the benefit of the

TAGALONFAgE IN FRANCE.

Mr. Blanchard Jerrold, wl.o is now travelling.
through Europe en a commisiion from our Govern-
ment, in order to inquire into the provisions
for dealing with pauperism on the Continent,
has sent a letter to the Monthly Star, in which
he describes the present law of France with regard
to vagabondage. lle says that a convicted
vagabond may be imprisoned for periods vary-:
mg from three to six months. On liberation,
he is placed under the surveillance of the police for
a period varying between five and ten years. Vaga-
bonds under 1(3 years of age cannot be imprisoned ;
but they are put under police surveillance until they
arc 21, or until they enlist in the military or naval
services. The police have authority to put
convicted foreign vagrants beyond the frontier.
The commune to which a convicted vaga-
bond belongs, can, through its municipal
coancil, claim him, or a solvent filend
or
relative may become security for him. The autho-
rities, being satisfied, direct him to the commune or
place which is assi,;ned to him for rcsldence. Every
person found begging in a locality in which there
is
a public establishment organised to obviate the i
necessity for mendicity, is punishable by mpri-
sonnitnt for a term of not less than three, nor more
than six, months, and is afterwards conducted
to the depot de mendieite. The regular beggar
incurs a term of imprisonment of from one to three
months. Beggars acting in concert, or using threats,
or trespassing within an enclosure, a yard, or habita-
tion, incur a prison penalty, the extreme limit being
two years. .thggars who mimic distress, cr sickness,
or infirmities, or who ply their trade in companies
(except they be husband and wife, or parent and
child, or blind with a leader), come under the penal-
ties of this article. Any beggar or vagrant found in
any description of disguise, or carrying weapons
(even When ho has not tried to use them) or carry-
ing files, keys, or any instruments usable for a burg-
lary or other illegal act, may be imprisoned for a
term varying between two and five years. The
beggar or vagrant on whom more than ICOf. are
found must justify how he came by the money, or
he is liable to an imprisonment not exceeding two
years. Any beggar or vagrant who commits an
assault is punished by reclusion if the offence is
light, but with severe imprisonment when his vio-
lence has been serious.

TWO-YEAR-OLD RACES.

A very long letter appears in the Times, now on
the eve of the Derby, signed by Sir Joseph Hawley
-and „Mr. Henry Chaplin, directed specially against
two-year-old racing. The letter sets forth that
two-year-old racing, as at present conducted, is
leading to premature training and premature old age,
to short courses and the degeneration of the Turf; and
it goes on to argue that it is theduty of the Jockey Club
to step in and prevent theseraces on the grounds over
which it has power. The arguments against the pro-
posed change are that the frequency of race-meetings
shews the healthy state of the sport; that breeders
and owners will be injured ; that the owner has a
right to do as he likeSwith his own ; that the Jockey
Club has no power over all races. The two corre-
spondents of the Times deny that the sport is healthy.
Local meetinos arc often paid for by the admission
fees charged to non-betting men. The horses are
by no means healthy and good. Many of the
foals break down altogether, and the staying
power of others is open to question. Breeders
perhaps may suffer a little, but not owners. The
latter will only be compelled to reserve their horses.
Ofiders may not do as they like with their own,
if What they do is calculated to be generally hurtful.
And though the Jockey Club has not power over all
races, its example is generally followed, and it is its
duty to set one which will be really a public
benefit.

CONSCIENCE MONF.Y.

"The Chancellor of the Exchequer acknowledges
the receipt of i from 'W. R.' on account of income
tax ; and also of conscience - money.' "
" Conscience money ! " and in the Derby week !
Was such a payment ever made before at such a
time ? here is a gentleman who has for several years,
we presume, been in the habit of returning his income
probably at one-half or one-third of its real amount.
Suddenly smitten with the conviction that
it is as wrong to make a false return
to the tax-collector as it is to make a
false statem:nt in a Court of Justice, that
it is as wrong to cheat the Crown as it is to cheat a
private person, he chooses this very week of all
the year, when the temptation to squander money is
most powerful, in order to make restitution. Ilas he
heard a Low Church sermon which pricked his con-
science? or has he been to a Iligh Church priest for
confession, and been told that there can be no
absolution without restitution ? Whatever be the
cause, the phenomenon is worth noting. It is a
hopeful sign that even in these days of "specs" and
" plunging " honour and honesty are not wholly lost.
London, England, 1869-05-26

CHURCHWARDENS' FEES.

Churchwardens aro now beginning to regard
church rates as virtually abolished, and as a conse-
quence they are resisting all the legal taxes upon
them. "We have no fund," they say, except a
voluntary one, from which to draw; the taxes upon
us, therefore, must be made voluntary also."
The Rev. Mr. Laws, the Chancellor of the
Diocese of Lichfield, has appealed to the
Primate of all England to help him. Church
rates being abolished, churchwardens will not pay the
diocesan fees. Diocesan officers will be minus their
salaries if some provision be not made. The Arch-
bishop cannot help Mr. Laws much. Church
rates are not really abolished, he points out, though
not to Mr. Laws's satisfaction. He would be glad if
the payments to officials could be made without fees,
but suggests nothing. Mr. Laws suggests that the
payment of the fees by the churchwardens on their
admission to office shall henceforward be voluntary,
and that any loss sustained by the officers of the
Diocesan Courts through their non-payment shall be
compensated by the Ecclesiastical Commissioners.
Will Parliament agree to this ?

EMIGRATION AND STRIKES.

According to the Lord Mayor's Committee, the
British public, who formerly pai so willingly for
the drafting of werlimen to o er countries, is
becoming more cautious, and does not pay so readily
Rs it did. The Government, however, is going to
provide, at least, in part for the dockyard emigrants,
and so the large number of departures from this
country will probably continue. The strikes, too—
Preston especially—are swelling the list of the out-
ward bound. Another strike has commenced at
Liverpool. The men object to the hour system,
which the masters insist upon. They have, there-
fore, turned out. This will, probably, if not speedily
adjusted, bring money to the pockets of the emigra-
tion agents.

THE PRINCE OF WALES.

According to the Irish Times, the Queen has placed
at the disposal of the Prince of Wales services of
gold and silver plate suitable for royal entertain-
ments, and from her private purse has increased his
income by £40,000 a year. This is said to be due to a
division in the Cabinet in reference to the proposal
of an application to Parliament for such a purpose.
It is added that Mr. Bright declared his dissent,
unless accompanied by an equivalent reduction in the
allowance to the Crown. The story is evidently one
of the class called " shrewd guesses."

ULSTER AND THE IRISH CHURCH BILL.

The Orangemen have made up their differences.
The Orange democrats and the Conservative Pro-
testants have joined hands, in order to protest
against the disendowment and disestablishment of
the Irish Protestant Church. The Presbyterians
also have joined with the Episcopalians, though it ie
difficult to see what locus standi the first have, con-
sidering that they will receive an adequate compen-
sation for the annual grant now made to them under
the name of the Regium Donum. Anyhow, the
union and the protest are rather late. If they had
taken place two months ago the Opposition in the
House of Commons might have received an
encouragement which they sorely needed. But
repeated adverse majorities of over 100 have taken
the heart out of them. It is to be presumed that
these Ulster protests are intended to embolden the
Peers to throw out the bill.

THE MURDER IN SUSSEX.

The Sussex Advertiser gives the following additional
particulars relative to the shooking occurrence reported
yesterday :—" Information having at once been given to
the police, Superintendent Jenner sent to the different
police-stations, so that in a very short some 200 persons
were scouring the neighbourhood in search of Stubberfield.
Men from Ashburnham House brought a boat and dragged
the ponds, and it was not till the afternoon that he was
found, and then he was making his way from
Cowden Farm towards home. It is supposed that
he bad secreted himself in a pit where there
was water, and that he had tried to drown himself,
for when taken he was completely saturated with wet and
covered with mud. The police took him to the farm to
change his clothes. lle was then taken to Battle, where
he remains at present under the charge of the superinten-
dent ; he is exceedingly quiet, and cannot give any other
reason for the deed than that he felt compelled to do it.
lie said be 'loved her so much that lie did not like to
leave her behind, but now he would give the world to
have bur back again.' He also states that he attempted
to drown himself several times, but could not
do so, for he always floated on the top of the
water. The prisoner's father stated that some
twelve or eighteen months ago he met with a very serious
fall ; he was on the top of a ladder some 20 or 25 feet
high, cutting a very Isic,,h hedge, and ho fell backwards,
falling on his head. lie lay senseless for some time, and
not coming in to dinner his mother went out just as he
had come to. They advised a doctor should be sent for,
and that he should be bled ; but Jeremiah would not have
a doctor, and they date his insanity from that time.
His father and mother, and the roor wife's father, visited
him on Monday morning, the interview being a most
painful one."
