It. 'HOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52,
Fleet-street, has introduced an entirely new de-
scriptio❑ 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
over before used. This method does not require the
extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and will
support and preserve teeth that aro loose, and is gua-
ranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed
teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in masti-
cation.

This event, Nvldch, 'barring accidents,l3l6-be'pulled off
on the 17th November,
_is already exciting an immensi
amount of speculation. Our aquatic correspondent
riting from Putney, states that though Kelly's backers
ire Sanguine 04 to the success of their rdi4t, they
do" hot for 1 moment shut their eye 4 1,5 the
fact that Riticaford's style of doing his work
in the That:nes Regatta proved him to be aft opponent
of no mean order. Whatever may be the result of this
particular race, it is admitted that the Northerner is des-
tined, unless he deteriorates in some unaccountable
manner, to occupy a foremost place in the estimation of
rowing men. Even those who had money on against him
when he made his appearance on the Thames were com-
pelled to appreciate, and in several instances openly
to admire, his performance. It is no secret
that neither of the men intend to spare
themselves in training for the important event, and who-
ever is fortunate enough to be between Putney and Mort-
lake on the afternoon fixed for its decision will have an
opportunity of witnessing the perfection to which
preparation. for an aquatic struggle of such mag-
nitude may be brought, and will probably see
one of the most fiercely - contested matches ever
known on the Thames. The Londoner, who at the time of
the Thames Regatta was rather out of 'sorts, appears now
to be in good health. Every arrangement it is understood
will be made and strictly carried out at the forthcoming
race to preclude any of those " difficulties " which have
of late spoilt so many of the best events on the river.

SPORTING INTEL LIGENCE.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

MURDEROUS ASSAULT ON A FEMALE.—John Mur-
phy, a trimmer, residing at No. 3, Carnaby-street,
was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with violently
assaulting Jane Jones, a young woman who de-
scribed herself as a dressmaker.

After some evidence had been taken, the pri-
soner was fully committed for trial.

SHAMEFUL BRUTALITY.—Joseph Clayton, a car-
man, of No. 8, Lower Queen-street, Rotherhithe,
appeared before Mr. Tyrwhitt charged by the Royal
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
for cruelly working a horse while in an unfit state.
From the evidence of Inspector Temperley, of
the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals, it appeared that he saw the prisoner driv-
ing three horses attached to a waggon laden with
timber. One of the horses shuddered a good deal,
and the prisoner set to severely beating it and also
the leading horse with a heavy whip, and a maa
who, he believed, had something to do with the
prisoner, came up and kicked one of the horses. On
examining the horse he had just seen the prisoner
beating he found it had a large sore on its throat
and another on the withers, and the harness was
pressing into both of them.

Mr. 'Thomas Ralysh, residing at Walworth, de-
posed to seeing the prisoner severely lashing his
horses.

Mr. Tyrwhitt said the prisoner's conduct was a
mixture of brutality and cowardice, and he would
like to know what he would think if a person
treated him with similar brutality to that with
which he had treated his horse. He should fine the
prisoner 20s. or 14 days.

LAMBERT'S ASTHMATIC BALSAM.—AN
EFFECTUAL REMEDY, without confining the
bowels or affecting the head, truly efficacious and pleasant,
is admitted to be the best medicine for immediately re-
lieving coughs, colds, confirmed eases of asthma, and inci-
pient consumption. It frequently cures persons whom the
faculty pronounce incurable, and admirably allays the
ticking which provokes frequent coughing. In approach-
ing consumption its effects are truly beneficial. Persons
deprived of sleep, or even lying down for fear of suffoca-
tion, may depend on relief in a few minutes after taking it.
Prepared only and sold by W. LAMBERT, Chemist, 8,
King William-street, Charing-cross, London, and by all
druggists, in bottles, 13F1., and three quantities in one,
2s. 9d. each. Be particular, and ask for Lambert's Asth-
matic Balsam. The name and address are engraved on the

WES TM-11\7,57ER REGISTRATION.
THIS DAY.

The list of claimants for St. Ann's, Soho, was
concluded this morning. The total ❑umber of new
claims amounted to 469, of whom 250 were allowed
and 219 expunged.

After some discussion it was then decided to
take the list for St. Clements Danes. After
this had been settled another controversy took
place between the agents and the revising bar-
rister with respect to the legality of the notices
of objection to householders s,erved by post. Mr.
Noakes produced 14 duplicates of objections bear-
ing the Postmaster's stamp. Mr. Gilbert said it
was not sufficient to prove that 31. had been paid
for each, but that each witness roust be asked the
question what had been paid. This controversy
led to rather a warm conversation, but ultimately
the Revising barrister decided that the duplicates
were sufficient.

Amongst the names struck out of the house-
holders' claims were those of Robert Henry Ody
and John Price. The overseers said in the first
case the executors were rated, and with respect to
the other the claimant did not reside on the pre-
mises, 13, Alilford-lane, which were popularly
known as the barracks, and were let out in sepa-
rate tenements.

CITY OF LONDON.

This morning Mr. S. Percival, the revising bar-
rister for the city of London, resumed the inspec-
tion of the register for the City.
Mr. Ledger and Mr. Harper represented the
Liberal interest, and Mr. Smith the Conservative.

BOUNDARY AND RATING.

In this case Mr. Benjamin, of the East India
Chambers, claimed to be inserted on the register on
the ground that he was the occupier of Chambers iu
the parish of St. Andrews, Undershaft.
Mr. Ledger said he should oppose this claim on
the ground that the claimant was not in the parish
of St. Andrews at all, but in that of St. Peter's,
Cornhill. When the East India Company built
the chambers on the site of the old East India
House, they arranged with the two parishes that
they should pay on £ll,OOO rates, £9,000 to the
first and £2,000 to the second. They also through-
out the chambers put up boundary marks, by
which the parishes were distinctly defined, and
according to these Mr. Benjamin occupied cha:
bers in St. Peter's, although he was rated in S
Andrew's. Ho contended that this was an insur•
mountable objection.
Mr. Smith urged that the court had nothing to do
with the arrangement of the parish boundaries.

Mr. Percival said that he considered that the
question of bouniiry was a case for the court. The
claim was struck out.

ACCIDENT TO A PERFORMER ON TIIE TRAPEZE.—
An unusual accident befell a performer on the high trapeze,
at the theatre, Preston, on Monday evening. The man,
who assumed the name of Clevoyn, was performing on a
bar about 30 feet above the stage, when he fell down. By
the fall he put his neck out of joint, and a gentleman in
theatre is reported to have been successful in putting his
neck right again. The poor fellow was bruisod and
burned as well. lie is ia a precarious gate. -

MARKETS—(This Day.)

CORN.

The trade continues without activity, and prices, whilst
not quotably depressed, are in some cases more favourable
to buyers.

From the provinces the reports mention but little busi-
ness; quotations occasionally easier.
At Mark-lane to-day the attendance was small, and the
demand full.

The first arrival of English grain was small, and met a
retail sale at about the terms of Monday.

There have been fair arrivals of foreign, and the demand
very slack, but sales were not pressed, and quotations re-
main nominally unaltered.

Several cargoes of wheat off the coast have boen sold
rather lower, at 3d to 6d per qr., the continental king less
active.
Barley, beans, and peas are unaltered, and sell slowly.
Oats, in consequence of several arrivals by steamer and
sailing vessels, are a turn lower in price.
Flour in limited demand.
Malt, a dull sale.

Sir J. C. JEIIVOISE asked the Secretary of State for
Foreign Affairs whether he had any explanation to give
on a late orderof the Turkish Government, whereby sailing
vessels passing through the Bosphorus from ports affected
with cholera are exposed to a great aggravation of the
dffficulties of navigation between the Black Sea and
Mediterranean ; and, whether (in the absence of the Re-
port of the Cholera Congress, 1866), that of the British
Cholera Commissioners would be forthwith distributed.;
Lord STANLEY said her Majesty's Government, in
conjunction with other Powers, had remonstrated against
the order being strictly carried out, but as yet nothing had
been positively decided upon; with respect to the second
part of the question, the papers were being printed.

STATE OF TRADE.

MANCHESTER, March 17.—The report from sellers
in all departments to-day, as regards yarns and
cloths, is one of unmitigated dulness. An air of
tameness, which has been somewhat increased by
accounts from Liverpool of a decline of id. per lb.
in cotton, has pervaded the market from the opin-
ing to the close of business. Shipping yarns have
been difficult of sale at anything like the prices
which spinners would be disposed to accept, and
for home-trade yarns there has not been much in-
quiry. Last Friday's prices are quoted by sellers,
but a slight concession would be made to induce
business. At the same time there is no disposition
on the part of spinners to press their yarns on the
market. Sellers of cloth say the demand for these
goods is limited in the extreme, but we have a market
almost without business as regards the descriptions
of fabrics suited to India and China. Buyers timid:
and appear almost wholly disinclined to comil
themselves to offers, and any attempt on the part t)t
sellers only results in bids which show a somewha
starling discrepancy between the cost of production
and the prices obtainable under such circumstanel;
Ail quotations are more or less nominal, and 'id
may describe the price of all classes of goods to-jkl,
as a good deal weaker. Manufacturers are in Inae;',l
cases getting through their engagements, and nra
much willingness to sell if the very low terms offerL„
did not put transactions in such a state of them eiti
ket out of the question. 1. he actual business effeetei,
has been of an unusually small amount. The buss
ling
for continental and other markets than Eastern v`
alto been on a small scale.
