TEETH AND PAINLESS DENTISTRY.—
The fear of pain and dread of operation inherent to all
deter very many to whom ARTIFICIAL TEETH are of
vital importance from availing themselves of the services of
a dentst. In a practice founded in 1830, and now ex ending
over greater part of the kingdom, an experience unequalled
has been obtained, enabling us to offer even the most sensi-
tive sufferer a system of dentistry perfect in its absolute
freedom from pain, a speettlite tertaining only to our prac-
tice, and for which her Majesty has granted her royal letters
patent. This system embraces the non-interference with all
stumps, however decayed, the support ng instead of extrac-
tion of loose teeth until they become firm and useful in mas-
tication, and the utter absence of all and every operation, so
that the most nervous person can be supplied without fear of
pain or inconvenience. These teeth are cheaper, more dur-
able, natural, and comfortable than any yet produced.
Consultation free. Teeth from ss. Sets from 5 to 25 gs.,
warranted.

SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS.

TIMES.—With the view of clearing the ground
for the approaching debate, and of ano question to
follow, Mr. Bright, in the form of a letter to his

constituents, which we published yesterday, has
presented to the world a description of the House
of Commons and an estimate of public feeling. Mr.
Bright's capacity for a sound opinion on these
points will be variously appreciated, but we should
ourselves certainly expect him to know pretty accu-
rately the state of feeling out of doors, though we
are not so sure he would succeed in analyzing par-
ties and discriminating between motives. We arc

bound to say, however, and we feel sure a large
portion of the public will agree with us, that while
Air. Bright's picture of the House of Commons is

only a gross exaggeration on a very slight basis
of truth, his estimate of public opinion out of
doers is equally fallacious. We will take the latter

first. The people of Birmingham Mr. Bright sup-
poses to be ready to march to London at a day's
notice, and to fill the space from Charing-
cross to Westminster Abbey. With a rather
gratuitous sneer at the Day of Humiliation, and
forgetting, perhaps, how often such days have been
observed lately at New York and Philadelphia, Mr.
Bright suggests, as a convenient vent for indigna-
tion, a day to be observed in the whole district about
Birmingham in a manner that no Parliament could
possibly withstand. By a " firm assertion of their

rights fn great meetings, or in one vast gathering,
they would beat down, as if by one blow, the
power that threatens to bolt the door of Parliament
against the people." For our part, we can only see
in this a frantic attempt to raise the ghost of 1831,
when the Chairman of the Birmingham Political
Union undertook to raise two armies, as numerous
and as brave as that which conquered at Waterloo,

for the approaching contest with the boroughmon-
gers, and when a day was actually fixed for the
purpose. It is unnecessary to discuss whether this
boast was feasible or not ; it is enough that we only
look on this picture and on that to see that every-
thing is different. The entire kingdom was then in
a state not merely of agitation, not merely of dis-
content, disaffection, and utter want of confidence
in all our institutions, but of that actual and irreme-

diable distress which was the continual predisposing
cause of any amount of mischief. Since Mr. Bright
refers to the " Birmingham district," which he sup-
poses to be capable of rising, we will just transcribe
from Mr. Molesworth's useful " History of the Re-
form Bill the substance of three petitions to the
House of Commons in 1830 :—" The inhabitants of

The half-yearly meeting was held yesterday at
the office, Westminster-chambers, Victoria-street ;
Mr. W. 11. Whitbread in the chair.

Mr. A. Lankester, the secretary, read the report,
which stated that the line had been set out from
Bedford to the Midland Station at Northampton,
and the plans for obtaining possession of the land
had been prepared. The sections and drawings ne-
cessary for letting the works were in a forward state,
and might be put in the hands of the contractors as
soon as the amended agreement with the Midland
Company was completed, and the directors were there-
by placed in a position to enter into the contract.
The report was adopted, the retiring directors
were re-elected, and also Mr. 11. Notman, the retir-
ing auditor.

to take the wise and the generous course, to believe
that among the great mass of the people of Eng-
land there is great intelligence, and there are great
virtues ; and to believe further, that if three or four
or five hundred thousand more of the people of
England and Wales are included upon the roll of
electors, it will give great and permanent security
to the Crown, and, at the same time, will do more
than any other measure which Parliament can pass
to elevate and to strengthen all that is good in the
character of the English people. (Loud cheers.)

the balance being equal to a dividend of 6 per
cent. per annum on the shares issued. Up to the
sth of October, the date of the consolidation of
the varioua divisions, the iutere6t had been paid and
the net receipts were credited to capital. From that
date interest had been paid from revenue. The re-
ceipts for January and February last showed a
highly satisfactory advance on the same months of
last year. The drawings and specifications of the
international bridge to connect the American and
Canadian system of railways, at Buffalo, were now
before the directors of the Grand Trunk Railway
Company, as one of the guaranteeing parties, for
approval. After the necessary expenditure in keep-
ing up the way, works, and rolling stock of the
company iu the highest state of efficiency, the bal-
ance of net earnings would be paid to the sharehol-
ders. The Catawissa lease had been set aside by
the Pennsylvania Courts, but the Board were happy
to state that cordial relations were being established
with their prosperous neighbours, the Pennsylvania
Central Railway Company, which would secure all
the advantages to the railway which the Catawissa
lease would have conferred. In conclusion, the
Board confidently expressed their opinion that the
traffic which was certain to accrue to the company's
lines when they were further opened out could not
fail at a very early period to place the bond and
share holders in a highly satisfactory position as re-
garded the value and security of their investments.
They felt that with 490 miles of the road open out
of 607 miles a net revenue was earned in excess of
the interest required for all the bonds on the entire
road, and that, with the opening of the remaining
117 miles and connexion with the important system
of lines at Buffalo, the shareholders would be secured
a dividend equal to the best and most prosperous
railways in the United States. The capital account
showed that $46,798,415 had been expended. The
total traffic receipts from all sources during the
year 1865 amounted to $5,811,233, and the expenses
to $3,686,033, leaving a balance of $2,125,200.

PEDESTRIANISM.

HACKNEY-WICK.

The famed grounds of the " Wick," to use a sporting
phrase, on yesterday was again in great " form," for
1,000 persons assembled to witness a very exciting race
between

EDWARD GOLDER AND WILLIAM MILLS.—It was for
the good stake of £5O, and they had to run four miles,
both going from one mark. That the affair was a genuine
one, and a good race was anticipated, was evidenced by
the fact of the turf element being present in great numbers.
It will be remembered that Mills—a brother of renowned
Teddy (the Champion)—ran off the previous Monday a
race of five miles with J. Cooper, by whom he was de-
feated, after one of the best races witnessed for some time.
The competitors of yesterday both hail from Bethnal-
green, and both ran in Mr. Price's Handicap three weeks,
since, each going from the same mark of 400 yards start
when Golder won, W. Mills being second. As the present
match had been made previously to the handicap, and
Golder proved the winner in the latter, the betting yester-
day ruled considerably in favour of Golder, as much as 4
to 1 being offered upon him. Young Mills is a trifle the
taller man and a little heavier; Golder weighing Bst.,
standing 5 feet. 3 inches, and is 23 years of age. Barton
waited upon the latter, and Edwards on Mills. They had
to run 27 laps and 20 yards, so had to pass the referee,
Mr. H. Woodstock, 28 times. Mills commenced the race
by dashing off first (having the inside position), and for
the first round led by four yards. In the next circuit
Golder crept up, and followed in the wake of his rival a
yard and a half behind. The first mile—no alteration in
position—was accomplished in 5 min. 1 sec. Throughout
the second mile (time 10 min: .25 secs.) Golder kept
just a yard behind ; and on the commencement of the
third mile Mills tried hard to break away, but
failed, both being urged on in their endeavours
by repeated cheers, for in the 18th lap they passed side
by side, and the third mile was finished in 15 min. 55
sec., Mills a yard ahead. Again and again did Mills try to
leave his opponent, but Golder hung on him most gamely,
and in the 25th (the last round but three) Golder for the
first time rushed in front ; the latter, however, did not long
hold the advantage, for again did Mills come to the fore,
and led going up the back stretch for the last round. A
fine struggle ensued, and they passed and repassed each
other twice before reaching the Pagoda ; they went on as
if only running a sprint of 100 yards, and shouts of " It is
not 2to 1" arose. Golder lasted the longest, and Mills fell
defeated, so Golder ran in a winner of a fine and manly
struggle. The latter accomplished the four miles in 21
, min. 15 secs.
