AIR. HOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52,
Fleet-street, has introduced an entirely new de-
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 that are loose, and is gua-
ranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed
teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in masti-
cation.

consequence was that they had thought it right to break
off communication with us on that ground. They
in England could not help such an arrange-
ment, as they had a perfect right t 3 do so if
they chose. Of course it was a matter of regret that
such a state of things should exist, and he should only bo

THE TROOPS AT ALDERSHOT.
Mr. B. OSBORNE bogged to asked the right hon. baro-
net the Secretary of War whether it was true that
on ono of the hottest days during the last week a flying
column was sent front the camp at Aldershot, and that
the 'with of such a proceeding was that a groat
number of the men suffered extremely from executing
such an order, and that b3tween nine and ten of the men
nearly lost their lives by sunstroke. lie should like to
know whether such a statement was true, or not.
Mr. BUXTON said a friend of his had witnessed the
arrival of the men at Sandhurst, and a more deplorable
condition than they were in couldnot be imagined. Not the
slightest preparation had been made for them—there wore
no tents or other shelterfrom the great heat of the sun, and
to such an extent was the condition of the men disregarded
that they were kept standing for a considerable time in
the sun instead of being marched into a wood close by,
which would have afforgied them some protection from-
the excessive heat under which all the men wore suffering.
Sir J. PAKINGTON said he had received no infor-
mation on the subject, but he would make strict inquiry
into the matter, and if the hon. gentleman would repeat
the question to-morrow he would give him all the infor-
mation in his power. (Hoar.)

appeals to the constituency not to discard him on
account of the past. Ho has been invited, ho says, by
more than one Liberal constituency to become a candidate.
but prefers to adltere to Stroud. He. admits that his
course on reform gave offence to his constituents, but be
declares that ho maintains his honest opinions, and refers
to some historical precedents in deprecation of his punish-
ment by expulsion. He alludes to the loss of their seats
by Messrs. Cobden and Bright in 1857, on account of their
vote on the Chinese war, and to the rejection by Oxford of
Gladst( ; and states that "Oxford already feels
the disgrace of that dismissal, the constituency that ex-
pelled its candidate now venerates his memory, and Man-
ehester has shown its penitence for the punishment of
Hr. Bright by electing his brother to •the place from
which he was degraded." "If, therefore,"; he
adds, "by following the example of greater men I have
exposed myself to their penalty, and should oven undergo
banishment from public life, I could still feel that time,
which has avenged them, would also do justice to me."
Still ho admits the pain and mortification which a loss of his
seat for Stroud would give him. In a second address, spa-
:idly to the "operatives newly enfranchised," Mr. llorsmaa
asks them to invite him and his opponents to a public me,..

DINNER TO LORD NAPIER OF 3IAGDA.L.A.

On Monday night the members of the Oriental Club
rave a grand banquet in honour of Lord Napier of Mag-
lala, G.C.B. and G.C.S.I. The chair was taken by Sir
Cecil I3eadon, K.C.S.L
After the usual loyal toasts,
The CIIIIIMAN said he now rose to propose the health
A their noble, gallant, and distinguished friend, Lord
Napier of Magdala—the :man who now stood foremost
in the esteem and admiration of his countrymen, and
was scarcely less renowned among foreign nations, as
the hero and embodiment of modern chivalry, prudent,
arm, and sagacious in council ; prompt, bold, and
iecisive in action ; bravo and yet how gentle ; with.
:.ultivated and refined tastes, and unbounded sympathies
for all his kind, and one in whom a stern sense of duty
was quickened and ennobled by the natural instincts of a
loyal and sound heart. It was almost impossible to speak
)f Lord Napier in his presence without seeming to exagge.
rate the praises of one whose very nature was truth, and
wounding the feelings of the man whom they had met to
honour ; one whose eminent characteristic it was to
think so lightly of himself and so much of others.
Lord Napier stood conspicuously before the public as the
:onqueror of Abyssinia; and in the halo which had been
shed about him by the signal and complete success of the
late expedition, and by the display of those brilliant
lualities by which that success was insured, the other
and perhaps stronger claims he had upon their regard
had been somewhat eclipsed. Whether they regarded
Lord Napier as the able and fearless engineer who
,overed the Punjaub with a network of imperial roads
worthy of the ancient Romans, or who evolved, as at
Lucknow, a city of stately avenues from the chaos of a
native bazaar—as the statesman who for a series of years,
ks the colleague of successive Governors-General, and him-
self for a brief period filling that high office, had laboured
indefatigably in the promotion of every good and useful
measure—as the soldier who struck terror into the flying
hosts of Tantia Topee—who had so ably seconded
the operations in China under the command of that
listinguished general, Sir Hope Grant, and who had
now achieved his crowning glory by leading an army
through 800 miles of the most difficult country in the
world, almost, it might be said, without the loss of a
nan, capturing a fortress of unparalleled strength, and
=ruing out the policy dictated by Parliament, even to the
very letter, with consummate skill, and, what was more,
eth consummate moderation and justice—at all times and
inder all circumstances, his conduct through life entitled
him to the highest meed of praise they could offer,
snd to the lasting gratitude of the country. Of Lord
Napier's private life and private virtues it would ill become
him t 9 speak. There were many there who had known
him longer and more intimately than himself. But having
been his colleague for some years in the Governor-
general's Council, and having enjoyed as he did the
privilege of his friendship, he might be permitted to add
his testimony to that of Sir B. Frere, and to say that no
nan commanded the confidence and love of his friends and
111 who were brought in contact with him more than their
noble guest.

The name of General Staveley was coupled with the
Goa st.

In returning thanks, Lord NAPIER said : It is not for me
to scan the measure of commendation which my friend Sir
Cecil Beadon has bestowed upon me. I can only acknow-
'edge gratefully his kind expressions, and assure you that
't is with the greatest gratification that I heard the health
)f my gallant colleague Sir Charles Stavely coupled with
the toast of the officers and men of the Abyssinian
army. I can only say that, whatever plans or designs
[ formed, no general could have had better support than
had, both from the authorities in England, from the
excellent body of staff officers and officers, and from the
staunch body of soldiers under my command. Lord
Napier then passed on to the subject of the East India
service, expressing himself proud in having belonged to it.
Ele spoke in high terms of the services rendered by Dr.
Campbell, General Baker, and General Thuillier, and
z,oncluded by saying that it was extremely satisfactory to
him to think that in what he had done he had been sup".
porting the credit of the British service.
