MA. HOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52,
Fleet-street, has introduced an entirely new de-
scriPtion of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without
BPrings, wires, or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble
the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from the ori-
nals 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.

from grows warm, so objectionable in low quality trans-
parent Paraffine Candles. Order of any dealer, but insist

;ILA EFFECT UAL 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 cases 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.

THE SUN, LONDON, SATVEDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 29, 1868.

AN AMEttICANREVIEW ON 711 E BRITISH

ARMY.

The Round Table has written an article on the
British army—a subject, it asserts to be not without
interest for the American people. If English news-
papers blunder egregiously about the British army,
it is not likely that in an article on this subject
an American paper will be free from errors.
The Round Table is more accurate than m ist British
journals in its comments, yet it is not wholly correct.
Indeed, it is very unjust to the service in India. It
truly remarks that " unfortunately for the British
army the people at one time were especially jealous
of its prominence—especially watchful of its in-
crease. But for this jealousy the Duke of Welling-
ton would have so arranged the barracks of Great
Britain and Ireland that every soldier would have
had long ere now not a palace for a dwelling
place certainly, but a home truly comfortable in
comparison with the den in which he is now
too often quartered. To keep the army as
much as possible oat of sight of the people,
the policy of the Iron Duke was to scatter regiments
in twos and threes over Great Britain, so that in
scarcely a barrack could be counted at one time
more than 2,000 men." Long before the Iron
Duke died, with the exception of the Guards,
scarcely an infantry regiment was to be found in
the island. There was a great artillery station
at Woolwich, a station for marines and depot for
Indian regiments at Chatham, a garrison compris-
ing a few battalions at Portsmouth;' and *except an
isolated regiment here and there, not a uniform
was to be seen in England and Scotland. The
regiments oil home service were for the most part
massed in Ireland, where they were liked both for
the conviviality they introduced and the money they
circulated. But in England the hereditary dislike
of armies remained in full strength, and the militia
continued to be, as it now is, the only constitutional
force. The war in the Crimea changed public feel-
ing ; and the necessity for a well-organized military
body being generally recognized, there arose such
camps as Aldershott, Shorncliffe, and the Curragh.
It is no wonder that English newspapers should have
been ignorant of a service whose members were
scarcely ever seenby the people and quartered in gar-
risons scattered over the world. To understand the
British army, it is necessary to know something of
Canada and South Africa, of the West Indies and
China, and, above all, of India. Lately, the British
soldier has become a more familiar animal to the
English citizen, but in spite of the penny papers,
to which the Round 7 able alludes as disseminating
truthful information about India, it is clear that the
Bound Table itself knows little about soldiering in
the East. "The farm labourer," it says, "knows at
last that glory in India means ten years' service where
the thermometer in the shade is at 120 degs. ;
that almost all the barracks in which he may
be stationed are abominably constructed, and
situated in the unhealthiest part of unhealthy dis-
tricts ; that discipline abroad is even more severe
than that at home ; that the Articles of War, when
construed by courts-martial at a distance of 10,000
miles from London, will be found to be against him
in every time of trouble. • lie knows, too, that many
in India are driven to drink in order to blunt the
sense' that steals upon them of their being utterly
forsaken and ruined for life. Barracks, loathsome
from the first through abounding discomfort, be-
come more and more so as the tedious months come
and go. Amusements, there are none. Ordinary
comfort, it is rarely known in India. The soldier
knows that the horses on the farm he left are better
housed than he himself is abroad." If service in
India were what the Round Table represents it to be
the two years it considers ought to he made the limit,
would indeed be sufficient for an abode " in wretch-
edly built barracks, so horribly gloomy and lone-
some, that the soldier rushes into dissipation the
moment he is outside the gates." We dare say our
contemporary will be surprised when we state that
with the exception of the forts at Calcutta and
Madras, in each of which there is but a single Bri-
tish regiment—there are no gates to Indian bar-
racks. The reader, whose philanthropic imagina-
tion was horrified by the loathsome picture conjured
up in the Round Table, would be amazed if he stood
in Meerut, or Umballa, Lahore, or Kurrachee,
Poonah, or Bangalore, to see the ranges of magni-
ficent buildings stretching away for miles, provided
for the soldiers, all facing the open country. Gene-
rally these barracks stand in eschelon with a vast
cleared space in front, where the men may be
seen stripped to their shirts, engaged at
cricket, foot-ball, pony races, quoits, or
jerking a heavy leaden ball, a sport singularly
fascinating to the British soldier. Mixed with the
men at cricket, so as to be indistinguishable from
them, are sure to be several officer's, every company
having its own club, in which the greatest effort is
made to attain pre-eminence. Those who enter the
buildings, after :passing a wide verandah, see a
suite of rooms, in dimensions far surpassing any
in Europe, all supplied in the hot weather with
tattier and punkahs. Generally each company
has its separate building, each squad its apart-
ment, and each sergeant his room. Behind these
ranges, at some little distance, are the cook-
houses, where the work is performed by natives,
under the superintendence of orderlies detached for
the day, and the meals are brought in by the ser-
vants attached to each company. In the same line
are numerous lavatories, and often with these is
connected a swimming bath, under cover, built of a
cement called chunam, which bears a polish like
marble. Still further to the rear are skittle-alleys,
gymnasiums, racket, and fives courts. Added to
these is an extensive soldier's garden, where most
liberal :prizes are awarded by the Government for
excellence in the cultivation of whatever the indivi-
duals taste may be, and where those who like the
work can raise a plentiful supply of flowers and
vegetables. Among the buildings are certain to be a
theatre and a library and coffee-room. Few arts
flourish more in India than the drama. The British
soldier delights in tragedy. To strut upon the stage
as Captain Kidd, loaded with pistols and daggers,
to discharge the former in every direction,
and to declaim in a style that soars into extrava-
gant rant, charms his vanity, and enables his
comrades to pronounce him the greatest of living
actors. A grenadier in his attempt to glide
gracefully on the stage as a princess of overpower-
ing beauty, and make tender speeches in a voice re-
dolent of whiskers, moustache, and tobacco, may fur-
nish
a caricature, but is not the less amusing on that
account. Burlesque is often admirably acted ; and
as every battalion has a good band, music adds its
charms, and music of a high order, to the entertain-
ment. In the reading and coffee rooms, chess and
backgammon are played, and not unfrequently a
billiard-table is there to be found. The thermometer
in the shade at 120 degrees is a thing unknown, at
these, the great stations of the British army in
India. Our contemporary is not aware that
the mass of the battalions are quartered to
the north-west of Meerut, which gradually in win-
ter becomes colder and colder till Peshawilr is
reached, opposite which is the fatal Kyber Pass,
where an Indian army once perished from cold.
It is the custom in the winter months to gather on
the spot the 'supply of ice required for the summer.
This is done by placing water in innumerable shal-
low earthen saucers, where it freezes during the
night, and is packed in the ice-house at dawn.
From Lucknow to the end of the great military
line, the glittering snows of the Ilimmalayeh forms
a part of the landscape of almost every station.
Out of each regiment at the commencement of the
hot season a number is selected of those who have
suffered from the heat to be sent to depots formed on
the peaks of these mountains. The Indian Govern-
ment has gone to enormous expense in constructing
roads and building barracks at Darjeeling, Dalhousie,
Landour, Kussowlie, and Murree, besides regular
barracks for whole regiments at Dugshai, Kussow-
lie, and Subathoo. In the Madras Presidency there

LETTER FROM CONSUL CAMERON'

The following letter has been addree,ed by Consul'
Cameron to Prince Hohenlohe-Langenbui,.4 who formerly
travelled with the consul during the visit of the Duke of
Coburg to Central Africa Magdala, Abyssinia, in
Prison, November 6, 1867.—Dear Prince Hohenlohe, you
will have heard of my rapid advancement in the diplo-
matic service, and after having been for two years attach 6
(par les jambes), I may now regard myself as charge des
fens, if twenty pounds of iron may entitle me to this desig-
nation. Seriously, I have gone through wonderful events
since we last saw one another ; but I think you know the
worst details from one source or another. England
has certainly done everything to conciliate our royal
friend. We now wait quietly until the troops come to
liberate us. I do not doubt the result, provided their
movements are rapid. Neither the King nor his people
have ever had real dangers to contend with, and I have no
doubt that only a small number of our people will be sufli-
°lent to give them an idea of our power, if they advance
quickly into the heart of the country. Many of these
things are in our favour—for, instance, the situation of
Magdala. Certainly there is some danger of our 'being
killed by the soldiers here in a panic ; but then they have
no place of refuge, since they are surrounded by enemies
who would neither permit them to join the King nor allow
them to become rebels on our account. We calculate that,
either for good or evil, matters will be decided here by
the middle of January; and, after all, two months are
not long to wait after four years in chains. I hear
that the Abyisinian affair is much blamed in England,
and, so far as I can judge, evil-minded persons, either
here or in Egypt, have sought to cast the blame upon me.
Nothing can be more untrue. I came with the per-
mission of King Theodore, for the second time, to
Abyssinia ; and although I carefully sought to abstain
from all cause of quarrel with him, since only three
months previously he had offended European opinion by
bastinadoing the Rev. Dr. Sterne, yet I was taken from
a sick bed and thrown into chains for writing him a most
respectful letter, in which I requested him to allow me
to return to my post in accordance with my orders.
Nevertheless, I think that, in spite of all, the truth has
come out, although I myself have not written much.
Have you read the kind letter of the Duke of Sitge....-__=-Tfte:
Coburg, which he wrote on my account to King Theodore?
It is impossible to thank him sufficiently for it. Ho will
be glad to hear that poor Schiller and his companions have
had their wrist-shackles removed. The ICing makes them
work for Lim, although in leg-chains. With my most
respectful compliments to the Duke, the Duchess, and the
Prance of Leiningen, I am, &c., D. CAMERON."

are the stations of Ootacamund and Jugpartulla,
on the Neilgherries, and in Bombay, Marbulesba,war
• and Mount Aboo. In the canteens, even at the
peaks of these hills, Bass or Allsopp's beer is sup-
plied to the troops, the main portion of the expense
being borne by Government. When a regiment re-
tgrns to England, the nien are generally allowed to
volunteer to remain in other battalions, and
large numbers avail themselves of this privi-
lege in spite of the strong inducnneat after a
few years' service always contained in the word
home. Those who know the efforts of the British
Government in India to benefit the soldier could
not be guilty of the injustice of describing the
work in the words of the Round Table. We do
not hesitate to state that in no other country on
earth is there anything like the degree of govern-
mental solicitude for the welfare of the employed, as
is bestowed on the English army in India. They
inhabit the finest barracks ever constructed ;
they are fed, clothed, nursed in hospital, and
amused as no other troops can even hope for, and
provision is made for the care and instruction of
their children. Such stations as Calcutta and
Bombay cannot be taken as samples of Indian
cantonments, being used merely as points of
arrival and departure. The Round Table is
more just in its description of the army in
England. Regiments arriving from abroad are, as
a rule, ordered to Plymouth, Portsmouth, or Dover,
where they stay a year before they proceed to
Aldershott. Although - the following assertion is
too sweeping, it is not without a basis of truth :
" The commander-in-chief is evidently afraid of
making the army too comfortable. In considering
the case of the private soldier, the Duke regards
justice as a privilege, ordinary comfort as an em-
barrassing luxury, and the slightest relaxation as a
stride on the road to revolution." No doubt great
concessions in the way of liberty could with advan-
tage be made to the soldier. The strict roll-calls
for breakfast and dinner, and at tattoo, might well
be dispensed with. The ridiculous regulation
that a man found a mile away from his
barrack might be arrested as a deserter, although
obsolete, is a proof of the absurd principles on which
the regulations were formed. The Round Table con-
siders the severe plainness of the dress as a chief
difficulty in the way of recruiting. "Formerly the
style of dress displayed the figure of the soldier to
advantage, but the cloth was bad. Now the cloth
is better in quality, but the style of dress is such as
to make handsome men look awkward and clumsy,
and men of ordinary appearance seem very ordinary
indeed." We do not agree in this with the Round
Table, as we think the present style a vast improve-
ment on that of olden days.
.Comfort and con-
venience have mainly been sought in the alterations ;
the clothes are better cut, the cloth is superior in
quality, though still bad, and we consider that the
appearance is far from what the Round Table calls
it, " hideous ;" and it certainly is not " repulsive "
or " uncomfortable."—Anglo-American Times.

THE TRIAL OF CAP7AIN NAGLE.

The most remarkable chapter in the strange eventfn
history of the Fenian prosecutions has been opened at the
Sligo Assizes. It reveals incidents of romantic interest,
and suggests questions of considerable nicety and con-
siderations of great importance. The case of Captain
Nagle, the chief prisoner, bristles with legal and constitu-
tional points, the discussion of which will probably ex-
tend far beyond the precincts of the Court-house. They
have taxed to the utmost the learning and ability of the
bar engaged for the Cm vvn under the leadership of the
Solicitor-General, who, in the absence of the Attorney-
General, will conduct the proceedings. The extent of the
responsihility which has been cast upon him may be inferred
from the able charge of Mr. Justice Fitzgerald to the grand
jury, in which he explained the novel and difficult nature
of the questions which were likely to arise in the course
of the trials. Ample precautions have been taken by
the authorities to prevent any disturbance. The

local force has been reinforced by 150 additional
constables, two companies of the 72nd Highlanders, and a,
troop of the Ist Dragoon Guards. No popular excitement
or sympathy with the prisoners has been manifested. Mr.
G. F. Train, however, in fulfilment of his promise, has ar-
rived on the scene, and'his presence is not calculated to
ensure the preservation of tranquillity and order. Judges
Fitzgerald and Keogh arrived from Carrick-on-Shannon
at ten o'clock a.m., and were received by the High Sheriff,
who conducted them to their lodgings under a strong escort
of mounted constabulary and dragoons. A body of High-
landers was posted near the Court-house. At twelve
o'clock Mr. Justice Fitzgerald opened the commission
and charged the grand jury. His lordship observed that
the statistical returns of crime since the last assizes
presented a feature which was honourable to the county.
There were but five cases for trial, which consisted alto.
gether of common assaults and petty larcenies. He
thought great credit was due to the resident gentry of
the country, who by their example and administration of
the law had contributed to produce that happy state of
things. In addition to the ordinary business, however,
there were eight persons in custody against whom bills
would be sent up, charging them, under the Treason-
Felony Act of the 11th of Victoria, cap 9, sec.
3, with compassing to depose the Queen from
her realm of Ireland, and set up an Irish Republic.
His lordship explained that the crime consisted.
in the intention, which should be evidenced by
overt acts. He reminded them of the narrative of
the Jacknell expedition, observing that if the real
truth had not been kept from them, persons of education
and intelligence, such as some of the prisoners were repre-
sented to be, would never have engaged in such an exhi-
bition of folly. About the 26th of May the vessel arrived
in Sligo Bay, where certain proceedings occurred near the
coast which would be matters of evidence. One or two of
the so-called officers put in there, a couple of wounded
men were landed, and communications were held with
Fenian emissaries respecting an alleged design of surprising
the town and hoisting the flag of the Irish Republic.
That design, however, was abandoned, and the vessel,
after cruising about for some time, until the provisions
began to fail and the persons on board to suffer from the
voyage, at length touched at Helwick Head, on the coast
of Waterford, were twenty-five or twenty-six of them
landed, and were arrested by the police. Eight of them
were to be tried at the present assizes. One of them, named
Nagle, was an alien, and, consequently, owed no alle-
giance to the Queen or obedience to the laws of this
realm until he came within the limits of the Queen's
dominions. 'When he came within this realm, however,
a local allegiance was due from him, and he was answer.
able for his acts until he withdrew from the kingdom.
The learned judge explained that the Queen's dominion
extended over all arms of the sea, estuaries, and Lays
within headlands, ports, or harbours, and also into the
high sea a•ljoiniug the shores as far as a cannon-shot
would reach, which is generally calculated as a marine
league. The law of the United States was similar. If;
therefore, any acts of the prisoner on the high seas should
b offered in cvi lence, they would have to inquire whether
the Jacknell was then within the headlands of any bay or
estuary, or within three miles of the shore ; and ho
directed them to deal with such acts as if committed on
the adjoining shore.

with treason-felony. Mr. Heron applied for a writ of
others
certiorari to remove Nagle's trial to the Queen's Bench, on
the ground that six Americans could not be found for a
jury in Sligo. Judge Fitzgerald refused, and said the
prisoner was entitled to a mixed jury, but the alien portion
might be of any'country. Nagle was then arraigned. Mr.
Heron asked that the indictment should be quashed, on
the ground that six of the grand jurors were not resident
in the county. The court decided against the objection,
and the trial proceeded. Mr. Train was in court and
offered to serve on the jury. The court repelled the inter-
ference of Mr. O'Malley Irwin, through whom the offer

AMALGAMATION OF PUBLIC COMPANIES. —ViCO-,
Chancellor Wood gave judgment on Friday morning in the
case of Clinch v. The Financial Corporation. The plaintiff
had filed a bill to impeach an arrangement
between • the Financial Corporation and the Oriental

Bank, by which the former company was amal-
gamated with the latter company on these terms—the
assets of the Financial Corporation were to be handed
over to the Oriental Bank, who in return were to give one
of their own shares for every three in the Financial Cor-
poration, provided that further was paid on each of the
financial shares.—The Vice• Chancellor said the amalga-
mation could rot be supported either by the articles of
association of the Financial Corporation or the Corn.
parries Act. It was, in fact, a scheme by which
the Oriental Bank sought to raise £150,000 addi-
tional capital. Both these companies were now
being wound up. The Oriental Bank were entitled
to stand as creditors for any amount, with interest, which

they had advanced in payment of the debts of the Financial
Corporation, and without prejudice to any question as be-
tween the shareholders of the Financial Corporation who
had been registered as shareholders in the Oriential Bank,
and the creditors thereof, such shareholders were entitled
to have their ibM.es in the Financial Corporation restored
to them on their delivering up the dertificates of their
