mR. HOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52,
Fleet-street, has introduced an entirely new descrip-
tion of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires,
or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble the natural teeth
as not to be distinguished fro it the originals 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 pain-
ful operation, and wilt support and preserve teeth that are
loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and mastica-
tion. Decayed teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful
in mastication.

THE MAGAZINES.

BLAcKwooD.—" Brownlows" is continued, and
at last we come to the momentous part, and Mr.
Brownlow's dread of years is realised. The state
of suspense in which he lives is very well depicted,
and it presents a useful warning to those who do
not act in a straightforward manner. "At the
Alps Again" continues the series of interesting ad-
ventures in that attractive land. We meet with
an admirable article on " Conversation," which
will well repay perusal. Conversation has been
called one of the lost arts, and in some respects the
assertion is true, for people aro nowadays too busy
to perfect their accomplishments. Besides this, as
here correctly stated, every one nowadays reads so
much that it is quite impossible to give so much
time to talking as their fathers and forefathers did.
Respecting the alleged incapacity of literary men
in this respect, it is here said that, while some
authors justify the description given of Gold-
smith—

"Who wrote like an angel, and talked like Poor Poll,"
on the other hand, too much is expected, and men
of genius and talent do not always act like a real
parrot. An authoress called the opposite sex " these
poor, tongued-tied creatures, the men ;" and ac-
cordingly we meet with the admission that females
can create conversation. One great flaw in con-
versation exists when people cannot listen, which
spoils the general effect. " Linda Tressel" is pro-
ceeded with in a second part, and promises to be
very exciting as it continues. Linda's aunt is a
specimen of one of the worst of mischief-makers—a
person who acts from duty, and interferes with the
rights and privileges of others in the most unwar-
rantable style. " Reynolds and the Portrait
Painters of the Last Century" is an artistic paper,
possessing interesting information and comment ;
and most true is the concluding criticism that the
art of portrait painting has been in decline since the
days of Reynolds, and that the portraits of this
century compare unfavourably with those of they ast.
" Cornelius O'Dowd" is as happy as ever in his
comprehensive discussions of things of moment at
this juncture. " Women in the Middle Ages" is
an article on the question that has been very often
referred to of late; but this writer takes a new view
of the subject, by comparing the women of an
earlier period with those of tha p:esent fast and
pretentious ones, and not to the compliment or
credit of the latter. Modern Reformers advise
women to strike out a new line from that wherein
they formerly presided ; and of this it is said, " We
believe that if she follows this course she will fail,
but that if she remain true to herself her reign may
last." " The Impending Crisis in America" is an
excellent paper, that takes a very correct view of the
state of things in the New World.
FRASER.I—" Voltaire as a Theologian, Moralist,
and Metaphysician," is the title
.of the first paper,
whose character and scope may be partly guessed
from it. It is written with care and some degree
of partiality, for the writer evidently inclines to the
Voltairean school of thought ; and in these days,
when Voltaire, like his contemporaries, is less read
than formerly, it is not uninstructive to the general
reader to meet with a summary of his objects and
arguments. His attacks upon Christianity, which
he regarded as the author of all the intolerance and
ferocity in the world, never pausing to consider
the lengths to which he had himself seen a nation
rush without it, form the staple of the paper.
" linye's Lives of Indian Officers" form the subject
of an interesting and well-written critical paper.
" The Birds of Norfolk" is an essay for the orni-
thologist as well as for the sportsman. " Rambles,"
by Patricius Walker, are pleasantly told ; and the
story of " The Marstous" is always worth reading.
As for the two political articles at the conclusion
—" The New Rebellion in America," and " The
Conservative Transformation,"—they ably express
the violent, predetermined hostility of a certain class
of politicians to everything their opponents -think,
do, or say. Happily alike for the peace of England
and the future of America the common sense and
impartial judgment of both nations has pronounced
very differently on matters respecting which it is
easy to rant and to dogmatise, but neither desirable
nor reasonable to do so if good government and in-
ternal prosperity be the objects desired.

COLBURN'S UNITED SERVICE MAGAZINE.—The
"United Service" for November is well stored with
matter, interesting for Abyssinian news, and the
prospects of our expedition to that mysterious
country. Like other things of which we are igno-
rant the professed guides who presume to teach what
nobody knows increase with the proximity to the
time of action. The wonder is hoW people who dis-
tinguish between light and darkness will persist in
believing such blind guides. But so it has been,
and so it promises to be to the last. The first
article in this number is " Massowah and the Red
Sea," by Lieut. C. R. Low, a gentleman who has
seen some service on the south-eastern coast of
Africa, and especially in the Red Sea. He says
that the track through the Red Sea from Aden to
Massowah is comparatively free from danger. From
the Straits of Babelmandeh to Suez, the Red Sea in
a direct line measures about 1,230 miles in length,
the greatest breadth is 192 miles, and at its nar-
rowest part, near Ras Mohammed, where the pe-
ninsula of Mount Sinai splits it into two, the Red
Sea measures only 72 miles across. " This inland
sea derives its name from the fact that large por-
tions of it as well as the Arabian Sea are covered
with patches, froma few yards to some miles square,
of a blood red colour, derived from a species of ani-
rualculm, particulary abundant in the spring
months, and which dye the upper waters with the
most intensely blood-red hue that can be conceived.
There is nothing else about the sea that is red. In
the harbour of Tor, in the vicinity of Mount Sinai,
was observed by a traveller in December, 1823, the
striking phenomenon of the whole bay forming the
harbour being of a bloody colour, while the main
sea beyond the coral reef enclosing the harbour was
as usual colourless. The short waves of the calm
sea during sunshine carried to the shore a bloody-
coloured, slimy mass, which it deposited on the
sands, so that the whole bay, fully half a league in
length at the ebb of the tide, exhibited a blood-red
border of more than a foot wide. On taking up
some of the water itself with glasses, it was found
that the colouring was caused by small flakes,
scarcely distinguishable, often greenish, sometimes
of a lively green, but for the most part of a dark
red colour, although the water itself was not stained
by them. Hence the name of the ' Red Sea,'
though the phenomenon is not permanent, but
periodical." Massowah is not, after all, to be the
port of landing the expedition, according to ac,

,0 th, t when our troops get fairly there the question
will be h,,on settled. There are several other articles
well worthy of perusal.

IB...LGRAVI.I.—Three chapters of "Dead Sea Fruit,"
by the editress, and the same number of " Diana
Gay," by the author of " Bella Donna," advance
both stories considerably. There is besides a tale
complete in the number—a rare thing nowadays
bearing the mysteriously attractive title of "
Aunt's Pearl Ring." Then we have " A Fortnight
in Corsica," by Professor Austed. " Bric-a-Brat
Hunting in the Bazaars of Stamboul and Madrid,"
by Major Hall, and the third instalment of the
" London Parks," by Walter Thornbury, are full of
lively anecdotes. Poems and illustrations abound
throughout the number.
MACMILLAN.—Very welcome is this number of
" Macmillan," with a double attraction on its title-
page. The author of " Friends in Council" inau-
gurates a new and delightful work, in which our
old friends Milverton:and Ellesmere re-appear, and
the former begins to unfold the story of
" Realmah," whose object we shall be able to ap=
preciate further on. The other special attraction
in the current number of " Macmillan" is the first
instalment of a new romance by the authoress of
" The Heir of Redclyffe," which promises us rich
and varied interest. The scene is laid in part at the
gay French Court of the sixteenth century, in
part in a quiet English home. The actors already
introduced promise to engage our attention, alike
from the animation of the narrative and the lifelike
delineations of character for which the author of
" The Heir of Redclyffe" is famous. The first
part of " Dulwich College, the Story of a Foun-
dation," is also a pleasant subject, pleasantly dis-
cussed. It shows us the College as it was in the
time and under the supervision of its founder,
Alleys', of whom many agreeable recollections are
preserved. " English in Schools," a lecture by
Professor Seely, objects to the early study of the
Latin grammar, and strongly recommends greater
attention being paid to our national literature. Mr.
Hughes, M.P., contributes a lively account of his
experiences at the French Exhibition, and brings
to a conclusion an unusually good number.
TEMPLE BAR.—" Stephen Lawrence, Yeoman,"
is continued in a long and interesting instal-
' ment, which shows up many phases of cha-
racter in a very effective manner. Kate and
Dora are very ably depicted, and before long
we shall doubtless find each come to grief in
her separate style. The old farm servant,
" Barbara," is a positive relief after the fashionable
follies and cold-hearted coquetry of the ladies of
the tale. " Epigrams" furnish some amusement,
and " Gap" is at last concluded, though even this
long gossip has not exhausted the theme. " Tapos,
the Notary of Agostoli," is proceeded with in some
exciting chapters. " A Lost Home" also presents
the reader with a most elaborate instalment, replete
with marvel and mystery, and full of adventure and
excitement. " The Knight of Innishowen" is a
humorous sketch, done with spirit and vigour.
" The Proposed Journey to the North Pole" is a
paper on the daring project of M. Lambert, that
encourages these expeditions, notwithstanding the
danger and difficulty. If these regions were
known, it is said, it might be easy to answer those
who ask the use of these enterprises. An eloquent
passage is quoted from Captain Maury about these
researches, which have led many a noble champion
of; human progress into torrid and frigid zones,
and it is declared that " noble daring has made
Arctic ice and snow-glad sets classic ground, and
seafaring men have looked with deeper and deeper
longings towards the mystic miles of the Polar
regions."
LONDON SOCIETY.—" Playing for High Stakes"
is continued, and the picture of Blanche's first mar-
ried home is not an attractive one, but worse than
care, toil, and want of money was the frequent
pressure of Mrs. Sutton. She was a regular kill-
joy of the worst description. "The Two Brides" is
a pleasing picture that represents a striking con-
trast. " The Piccadilly Papers" contain some use-
ful hints most applicable at this season of the year.
" How I fell into the Clutches of King Theodore"
is an account of adventures that is sure to attract
especial notice- at present. To Abyssinia and
back is, as the narrator observes, by no means
very easy of accomplishment just now. " Without
Reserve" is a pleasing tale. " The Mail Guard's
Story" tecords some exciting scenes of travel
and capture of suspicious characters. " The
Belles of other Days " show us a quartette of
Beauties fro a South Kensington, with some
details thereof. "An Autumn in Russia "is a
pleasing illustration, and "rihumb-nail Sketches"
in the London streets are well done, and exhibit
the different sorts of people who throng our busy
thoroughfares. " The Private Life of a Govern-
ment Office " contains some curious anecdotes.
" Gossip from Egypt ' and " True Blue" complete
the contents of this interesting number.
Tits Alossm.—A very able and interesting paper
on "'rho Intellectual Training of Ladies," may be
read with profit by all who have charge of the edu-
cation of girls. The writer very justly observes
that much of the dislike commonly felt to learned
ladies arises from the trifling manner in which girls
are brought up, which has forced a few women who
have been really intelligent, active-minded, and
studious, to educate themselves in their own way,
and to feel that they were braving society in so
doing. Mgr. Dupanloup's recent publications on
this subject are largely quoted, and fully confirm
the writer's sensible and practical views. " English
Premiers," No. XIV., brings us down to Canning
and Wellington, the history of whose Premier-
ships were most especially important to Catholics.
" Wild Sport in the Jungle," " Early days of
Lamennais," and " Guiseppe, a Corsican story,"
are among the contents.

THE INTELLECTUAL OBSERVER.—The November
number contains articles on " The Action of Light,"
on " Standards of Weights, Measures, and Coin-
age," as well as several papers on different branches
of natural history.
THE ENGLISHWOMAN'S MAGAZINE this month is
more than ordinarily attractive. Its patterns are
novel and elegant, and its illustrations and letter-
press are as usual unexceptionable.
LE FOLLET, the oldest and most esteemed ladies'
magazine, is this month a perfect portfolio of the
newest Parisian fashions.
HANOVER SQUARE is a new musical magazine, just
commenced, and its projectors have shown they
intend to present their patrons with none but music
of the highest class, by placing at its head one of
the most accomplished musicians of the day, viz.,
Mr. Lindsay Sloper. The magazine is devoted
entirely to music, and opens most appropriately with
an elegant composition by the great. maestro Jules
Benedict, entitled " Sorrows and Joys," which will
be warmly welcomed by every true musician, as it
bears most strongly the imprint of the master hand
from beginning to end. The magazine also contains
two pretty ballads by Arthur Sullivan and Henry
Smart, in addition to a very graceful morceau de
salon by Sidney Smith. The initial number of the
new publication is decidedly an excellent one, and
from the brilliant promises held out for the future,
and while the name of its talented editor is of itself
quite sufficient guarantee for a faithful perform-
ance, we augur a great and brilliant success for the
new candidate for public favour.

Wagner, the musical celebrity, said to be on
terms of intimacy with the King of Bavaria, has
arrived in Paris.

YODEIGN NOTES.'

- THE DEFEAT OF GARIBALDI.
The defeat of Garibaldi is fully explained. It seems
that he was not only outnumbered, but also surprised. He
was attacked by the Papal troops when in full retreat
between Rome and Tivoli. For several days official
persons had been engaged, in the name of Victor .Ein-
toanuel, negotiating with the General, as chief of the
volunteers, to relinquish the position at Monte Rotondo,
and to rotire behind the Italian lines. These negotiations
had succeeded.
The Incljpenlance Beige voucher for the receipt of a
private despatch which affirms that Garibaldi had yieldel
to the pressure of the Government, and ha'- promii.d to
lead back his forces. to Correse en Sunday. It seems that
while he was executing this movement the Papal forces
came upon him. The indepantletnee states that this infor-
mation is derived from trustworthy sources, and the news
of Garibaldi's intention to withdraw was to hand before
the telegram announcing his defeat. There seems to be
nothing in the telegrams to contradict this statement.
The conflict was a bloody one. The nu-,-' ,-- of the
Papal troops are variously set down at 6,000 a,,,. 12,r,t0.
The truth probably lies between the two. The Gad-
baldians lost one-fourth of their number. The fugitives
were disarmed as they fled across the Pontifical frontiers
into Italy.

The Liberte says Garibaldi was hemmed in in a triangle
defer. In pursuing the route from Rome to Terni he had
the French behind him, the Italians on one side,
and the Pontificals on the other. The French and
the Papal troops meditated a combined attack
on Monte Rotondo on Monday. According to the
Etendard, the Garibaldians were on their way to take
Tivoli when they encountered the Papalini. The carnage
was horrible. Three hundred railway waggons sent in
from the Italian frontiers were insufficient to carry off the
wounded. It is not known whether the French troops

took part in the engagement. The Etendard inclines to
believe that they did, for the following inexplicable
reasons :—The great success is out of proportion to the
numerical weakness of the Papal troops ! Further, the
great numbers of the wounded are evidence of the presence
of the Chassepot gun.
The Opposition papers in Paris take a different view or
matters. The Liberte considers it remarkable that Gari•
baldi should have succeeded with so few men in making
good his retreat. The Temps believes that the French
were not engaged, and asserts, in opposition to the Eten•
dard, that the Pope's Zouaves were armed with the Chan
repot rifle.

The Etendard exults over Garibaldi's discomfiture.'

only disadvantages of the red shirts. They were badly

A correspondent of the Times, writing from Rome, says
the rural population of Italy has everywhere been rather
against than with the Garibaldians. If the townspeople
were in earnest they did not shew it. In such underhand
work as the springing of a mine under a barrack or the
throwing of a bomb from a roof they are at home, but for
the hard fighting that is shewn by Spaniards in such cases,

for the organisation of plans and for energy in executing
them, they have no head and no heart. It may be worth
while to spend life because Italy wishes to have the city
for a capital, but not one brave man's blood should be shed
simply for the sake of freeing the Pope's subjects.
