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 distimuished frodi the originals by the closest
observer; they will never change colour or decay, and will
be found superior io any teeth ever before used. This
method does not require ti:e extraction of roots, or any pain-
ful operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are
loose, and is guaranteed to restore articilation and mastica-
tion. Decayed teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful
in mastication.

FO
HOMELESS WOMEN AND CHILDREN,
14A, Providence-row, Finsbury, E.C.
Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the
destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the
nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches.
At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. The poor
from all parts are admitted, the only condition being that
they are homeless and starving. The Manager &c.,
receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand-
ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each
night numbers of young women, children, and orphans
are, for want accommodation, refusedadmittance, andhave
to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To
meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda-
tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the
work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will be required.
Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it
is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur-
pose will allow, to give broad and coals to poor families
in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and
accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give
shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really
starving ? The smallest donation will be most welcome,
and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will
be offered in your behalf!!
SUBSCRIPTIONS are earnestly requested, and will be
gratefally received by the Rev. D. GLGBERT D.D., No. 22,

and to preserve the public peace : NOTICE IS HEREBY
GIVEN, that NO SUCH MEETING or ASSEMBLAGE
of persons in large numbers will be ALLOWED to take
place in HYDE-PARK, and all well-disposed persons are
hereby cautioned and requested to abstain from joining or

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 dentist. In a practice founded in 1830, and now exf 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
tice, and for which her Majesty has,granted her royal letters
Pain, a specialitd pertaining only to our prac-
patent. This system embraces the non-interference with all
stumps, however decayed, the supporting 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 arc cheaper, more dur-
able, natural, and comfortable than any yet produced.
Consultation free. Teeth from 55. Sets from 5 to 25 gs.,
warranted.

ATLANTIC TELEGRAPH EXPEDITION.

(From the Times Special Corresponded)

FOILHO3I3IERHU3I BAY, iTALENTrA,
Monday Night, July 16.
Three out of the four great risks which must
always beset. Atlantic Telegraph Expeditions have
now been safely passed by the Great Eastern—the
third of them at dawn this morning. The greatest
danger of all, however, and the last, has yet to come,
when the rope must be laid for a distance of more
than 100 miles, through a depth of 2,400 fathoms,
or 15,000 feet of water—the height of the peak of
Mont Blanc from the sea. This most severe final
trial will commence about Friday night or Saturday
morning next, and will, it is most earnestly to be
hoped, be got safely through by Monday morning or
Monday night. When this tremendous depth is safely
passed, the shareholders and all interested in the
undertaking may breathe freely, for the deeps then
slowly but continuously shallow into a thousand
fathoms, and so on with regularly decreasing water
up to a hundred fathoms off the Newfoundland
coast. In anything within 1,000 fathoms the break-
ing of the cable may be regarded as a most improb-
able contingency, and, even if it should unfortu-
nately happen, it would be of comparatively trifling
importance, as a few days' delay, at the most, would
suffice to grapple for, raise, and splice it. Once,
therefore, as we have said, when the deep water
is passed, all danger from the sea may be looked
on as virtually at an end, but till the turning point
of 2,400 fathoms where the cable broke last year is
crossed none can tell at what moment an 'almost
-hopeless accident may arise. The three dangers
which the expedition has already passed through
are, first, the successful and rapid laying of the
shore end ; second, passing down the tremendous
submarine incline known as the Irish bank ; and,
thirdly, passing over a short steep valley where the
water sinks to almost as great a depth as in mid-
ocean. These two last-named risks were in their
way serious enough. The failure of laying the
shore end could only have delayed the expedition,
but an accident on either of the two latter places,
especially the last, would have proved for this year,
if not for next, absolutely fatal to the whole affair.
The hisli bank, as it is now called, is a sudden
and rather steep incline, where in the space of about
30 miles the water deepens from about 1,200 ft. to
about 12,000 ft. This, as any one conversant with
mountains knows, is by no means a very rapid
descent—indeed, if regular, its entire gradient
throughout would be very little steeper than that of
Holborn-hill. It was for a long time contended,
however, that the bank was irregular in the extreme,
and only the careful series of soundings taken over
it lately by Mr. Iloskyns, R.N., gradually set this
suspicion at rest. Yet, though no sudden inequali-
ties are known to exist, they may be there, and it
cannot be denied that either in taking a cable up or
down this bank on all previous Atlantic expeditions
accidents have happened by which either its insula-
tion has been, injured or the wire itself bodily
broken. It was a great relief, therefore, when on
Sunday evening a message from the great ship
reached Valentia, stating that the bank was safely
passed over, and the vessel in 1,800 fathoms
water. It needed no further assurance of the
safety with which this portion of the task had been
effected than the condition of the cable itself. The
insulation and " conductivity" tests were as per-
fect, electrically speaking, as such things can ever
be. The signals, too, were very strong and most
distinct, and, above all, quickly given. Through
the telegrams which have been forwarded daily the
public are already aware of the distance run and the
amount of cable paid out. With these data any
one can follow the vesssel's course through the
Atlantic. It only remains to say, therefore, that the
uniform speed of the ship has not exceeded 51 knots
an hour, and the cable has run away easily at six
knots, and with scarcely any strain on the paying-
out machine. It may be worth mentioning, though
it is looked for as a matterof course by all acquainted
with the action of submarine cables, that the condi-
tion of the submerged wire has continued steadily
to improve as it goes down into the cold, equable
temperature of the great ocean depths. A perfect
conversation has been held through it. All here at
Valentia know what is passing on board the Great
Eastern, while they in turn have received every scrap
of news which each day's copy of the Times brought
down to. us. Even these telegrams, however, fail to
satisfy the voracious appetites of those on board for
continued intelligence of what is passing in Europe.
So the wire from this place is now at certain times
put through to London, and every morning and
evening the latest despatches as to the state of
the war are forwarded to the Great Eastern, while
she in turn sends back to us the not uninte-
resting news of the state of the weather in the
Atlantic. This evening, at 6 o'clock, every one re-
ceived with pleasure the telegram which announced
that the cable bad safely passed the third great risk
of the deep gully we have already mentioned. After
leaving the Irish bank the bed of the Atlantic con-
tinues very level for about 200 miles,when again for
a short length there is rather a deep dip of nearly
2,200 fathonis. After this it again easily ascends
on to what may be called a table land of less than
1,500 fathoms. On this plateau the wire is now
being laid, and not, as we have said, until Saturday
or Sunday next will the last and greatest of the
depths have to be encountered. Across this a very
liberal allowance of slack will be given,—in fact,
within certain limits as to speed, the cable will be
let run almost freely; at a greater rate than seven
knots it cannot safely be paid out, but up to this
maximum of speed it will be continued as nearly as
possible till the last and most difficult portion of the
route is passed. Up to six o'clock this evening the
distance run was 381 miles, and the amount of cable
paid out 447. This gives from the shore-end an
average of about 14 per cent. slack in all, or almost
identical with the slack of last year's cable. A con-
siderable increase of this, however, must be looked
for in passing the deep water during next Saturday
and Sunday.

Many parties of tourists have arrived here, in the
hope of seeing something of the operations connected
with this great undertaking, and the Telegraph-
house on the cliffs of Foilhommerhum is daily beset
by visitors, who use every interest to obtain admis-
sion. Its doors, however, are inexorably closed to
all save the officials connected with working the
line and the representatives of the London press.
In this rambling whitewashed structure, which
almost precisely resembles the Club-house at Alder-
shott on a small scale, there is a sanctum sanctorum
called the instrument room, a very small and
carefully darkened apartment, into which none
enter but Mr. Varley, or the one or two wham Mr.
Glass, on rare occasions, allows to see the scien-
tific mysteries. There is very little to be seen,
however, beyond a thin ray of light, fluctuating
now slowly, now rapidly, and sometimes standing
steadily still as it makes its dots and dashes along
the graduated scale in front of it, and the most
utter silence has to be preserved, that nothing may
distract the attention of the operator in reading the
movements of the thin, small gleams, for these are
messages from the ship, which at any minute may
prove to be of the last importance. All the news
from the Great Eastern has been most gratifying.
The weather is reported splendid, and all, from first
to last, electricians, captain, and engineers, express
themselves perfectly confident of ultimate success.
The current of messages and conversations is, in
fact, so continuously kept up that the incident of
the sailor falling overboard from the Terrible when
nearly 300 miles at sea was known at this station
within five minutes after its occurrence. Of course
as the Great Eastern proceeds westward her noon-
day Greenwich time becomes every day later to us
here. When to taking her latitude and longitude
is added the interval necessary for working them
carefully out, it will be seen that in spite of the
telegraph two or three hours must elapse before it

can be known at Valentia. Thus when she is tele-
graphed for her position at noon from here the re-
ply comes instantly back that it is not yet 11 with
them, and so her accurate position now scarcely
reaches us before 3 p.m., and every day that she
advances upon her westward tack will but add to
this discrepancy.

The following telegram was received by Reuter's
Telegram Company (Limited) at 6 15 p.m. yester-
day, from Mr. R. A. Glass, managing director of
the Telegraph Construction and Maintenance Cora-

The depot, 32d Regiment, consisting of six offi-
cers, 90 men, 14 women, and 12 children, and the
depot, 57th Regiment, consisting of nine officers,
129 men, 28 women, and 42 children, have em-
barked at Cork for Colchester, where they will be
attached to the Bth depot battalion. Capts. Priestly
and Metcalfe, Lieuts. Thomas, Jackson, and Have-
lock, and Ensign Lister accompany the depot of the
32d. Major the Hon. C. W. St. Clair, Capts. Brown
and Rowland Waugh, Licata. Batkoratt,l3ayntun,
and Brutton, and Ensigns Hornid,ge, Garnett, Col-
lins, and Essex accompany the 57th. The head-
quarters of the 11th Hussars will embark at Tilbury
on board the Agamemnon on the 25th inst. It is
expected that the portion of the regiment which
cannot be accommodated on board the Agamemnon
will be embarked four days later.

The paddle steamship Preussicher Adler yesterday
embarked alongside Portsmouth dockyard the right
wing of the 62d Regiment, comprising the head-
quarters, band, and colours, under the command of
Col. Ingall, recently stationed at Gosport, and after-
wards sailed for Queenstown. The Preussicher
Adler returns from Queenstown to Weymouth, and
will embark there the left wing of the 62d, now on
detached duty at Weymouth and Portland, for con-
veyance to Ireland to join headquarters.
The hired sailing transport Charlemagne embarked
yesterday alongside Portsmouth dockyard, under
the superintendence of Capt. R. Locke, embarkation
officer to the Hon. Council of India, detachments
of the 11th, 36th, 38th, 58th, 88th, and the 107th
regiments for conveyance to Calcutta. She sails
from Portsmouth about noon to-day.
The Hector, 20, screw, armoured iron frigate,
4,089 tons, 800-horse power, Capt. Win. G. Luard,
went out of Portsmouth harbour yesterday, and made
an official trial of her machinery under the super-
vision of Capt. Wm. C. Chamberlain, commanding
H.M.S. Asia and the Steam Reserve at this port, on
the completion of her refit for further service. The
ship's engines and boilers worked rather unsatisfac-
torily, and the runs intended to be made over the
measured mile in Stoke's Bay were therefore post-
poned until a future day. The Hector afterwards
returned into the harbour.

The screw corvette Reindeer, 7, 950 tons, 200-
horse power, unarmoured, is getting well forward
in her fittings at Chatham dockyard, where she is
being brought forward for commission. The whole
of her machinery and engines have been fitted by
Messrs. Rennie, the contractors, and she is now in
the hands of the riggers. A proposal has been sub-
mitted to the Admiralty by the dockyard officials to
alter the armament of this vessel by the substitution
of the Gk-ton guns for the 64-pounders, the fittings
for which have already been provided. As, how-
ever, there are but comparatively few of the former
description of guns in stock, and the 64-pounder
fittings have already been provided, it is not pro-
bable that any alteration in the armament will be
sanctioned by the Admiralty.

By direction of the Admiralty, Mr. Welsh, one
of the foremen of smiths at Chatham dockyard, is
to proceed to the Shripnal Iron Works, Shropshire,
to superintend the testing of the iron manufactured
