11VIR. 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-
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. s s

ANGLICAN OR CAMBRIAN ?

A momentous question is, according to a COITo•
spondent of the Times' still undecided. He brings
an important matter to the " bar of public opinion."
Is Monmouth, he asks —we imagine almost
breathless—in England or Wales ? Popular opinion
says in South Wales ; local usage says Wales. Either
ignorance or good information, as the casemay be, says
South Wales. But the geography books say Eng-
land. The boys at the public schools say England.
Some letters say England. How shall the matter be
decided ? Suppose a dispute were to arise—the want
of decision on this point might cause a war.
Dreadful thought. No wonder " H." writes asking
that the question may be " aired a little."
London, England, 1868-11-11

NON-INTERVENTION.

Dr. Brady, as a Liberal candidate for the county
of Leitrim, wrote to the Earl of Albemarle soliciting
his support. The answer was not quite that which
the doctor desired, but he nevertheless con-
siders his lordship's reply "just, equitable, and con-
stitutional." The reply was that the earl would not
interfere with his tenants at the forthcoming or any
subsequent elections. This puts Dr. Brady in raptures.
It must, however, be remembered that he asked for
his lordship's "support." It may be presumed, un-
less he was tempting that nobleman's virtue, that he
would have been better pleased still had he gained it.
So much praise bestowed upon a certain course of
action implig% a heavy reserve of censure for some
other possible course. The only logical deduction is
that Dr. Brady, with all his love of justice, would
have condemned the earl had he supported the
other side, and condemned him in that case only.

INTIMIDATION.

Mr. Joseph Harrop, a cloth manufacturer, has been.
summoned before the magistrates at the Westbury
Petty Sessions for intimidating voters. Mr. Montague
Williams conducted the easeforthe Societyfor the Pr-
otection of Voters, established at Trowbridge. Ilarrop
had discharged a man because he would not vote for
the Conservatives, upon the plea that he could
not serve two masters. This was pretty clearly
proved both by the evidence for the defence
and the prosecution. The counsel for the defence
endeavoured to shew that the man was discharged
because he was in communication with a rival manu-
facturer, but signally failed in proving it. The
magistrates refused to deal with the case, on the
ground that it was the intention of the Legislature
that such cases should not be proceeded with before
magistrates, and that the parties must proceed by in-
dictment at assizes or before the Queen's Bench.
There were other cases against Harrop, but the bench
adhered to their decision, and he left the court with
his counsel, rubbing his hands and waving his hat.
The mob, however, followed them to their hotel,
hissing loudly. The wonderful discovery of the
magistrates that they cannot commit a man on a
criminal charge will, perhaps, not altogether protect
Mr. Harrop, as he may find to his cost.
A Welsh editor favours the public with some
valuable remarks upon the freedom of conscience.
It appears that a meeting of Welsh Independent
ministers has been held at Penmaenmaur. Among
other subjects discussed, it was proposed to appoint
watchers, to find out who throughout the camp of
Dissent betrayed their principles, and to publish their
names in a black list when the election was over.
Some one objected to this "screw," and said
that a Dissenter ought to be permitted to
be a Tory if he liked; to which it was
replied, " There is no Dissenter a Tory." Why
then, the watchers ? The editor of the Welsh,
Witness thus settles the matter :—" The screw' is
punishment to a man for conduct consistent with his
creed and conscience, but the object of the black list
would be to punish a man for denying his principles.
The one is sinful; the other is lawful and good. The
screw' is oppression, but the black list would only be
chastisement. Every Dissenter is a Liberal from neces-
sity, on the subject of the general election, viz., the
Irish Church. If he votes for a Tory (especially if
he does so of his free will) he is the murderer of
his principles, and he should be treated as a moral
murderer." The idea that after the election we may
not only jostle commonplace murderers in the street,
but actually be hand and glove with a " moral mur-
derer," a man haunted by the ghosts of dead prin-
ciples, branded with the curse of Cain in au
aggravated way, is a terrible contemplation.

THE POOR LAW.

There is another subject to which legislators must
ere long have their attention drawn—the subject of
the poor law. On this matter the Conservatives
have claimed almost a " monopoly of wisdom,"
and they have boasted much of their measure last
session. A vigorous poor-law management was
indeed inaugurated under Mr. Hardy, and had he
remained at the post there was every indication that
we should not have had to find fault with our poor-
law system so continually. He .hegan reforms
which, if properly carried out, would have altered
many an anomaly. That wretched arrangement by
which the parochial government fell into the hands
of a few feeble squabbling local nobodies, was fast
being counteracted in the metropolis by the vigour of
the Executive Government. But things changed,
and the right hon. gentleman was transferred to the
Home Office. Since then the board seems to
have fallen into its old routine. It wants
" reforming altogether." The sub-inspectorships,
which were to be so useful in finding out abuses in
workhouses, have fallen into the patronage of the
Earl of Devon. Of course he would appoint energetic
business men, well known for their acquaintance with
the subject. Nothing of the sort. Mr. Courtenay,
one of those appointed, has the very special recom-
mendation that he is the nephew of the president ;
and Mr. Fleming, the other, is the nephew of the
permanent secretary.

RUPTURES.-BY ROYAL LETTERS PATENT.

HIFE'S MOC-MAIN LEVER TRUSS

Medical men to be the most effective invention in

it cannot be detected, and may be worn during sleep. A

MISCELLANEOUS NEWS.

•

lih. DISRAELI AT THE GUILDHALL.

Nearly all the Liberal papers treat lightly of Mr.
Disraeli's Guildhall speech. There seems to
be an idea that he is burlesquing to perfection. Tie
is a good actor, say they all, in effect, but he has a
bad part. The Times says the Premier represents
" the satirical element of life." The Daily News
sums up his policy as " The Constitution, Lord
Stanley, and a Bankruptcy Bill." The Tele-
graph, with that striange inconsistency which
seems intended to catch both sides alter-
nately pats the First Lord of the Treasury
on the back and slaps him on the face. But there
does not seem to be any idea of seriousness. Last
year the Times spoke of the almost didactic style of
the Premier, who would not mix fun and business
together. This year he has " gone in " for fun. The
best thing that he said, in the opinion of the journals,
seems to have been the passage wherein he hoped
that the Lord Mayor—who is candidate for Lambeth
—would be able in the coming year to devote his
undivided attention to the duties of the Lord
Mayoralty.

THE PRIMACY.

The Advertiser follows the example of the racing
prophets, and gives the latest favourites for the
Primacy. Our contemporary again goes through
the whole list of likely bishops, and reduces its
selections to two—the Bishops of Ely and Lincoln.
It is probable, says the Advertiser, that the decision is
already arrived at, and " we do not wiite, therefore.
m the slightest expectation of influencing the choice,
even in the remotest degree, when we once more
allude to the persons from whom a selection must be
made." Is it possible that our contemporary
imagines that it has already had a voice in the
appointment of the Primate, and that her Majesty
and Mr. Disraeli have painfully and studiously
gone through a file of the Advertiser before settling
the important question ? Our contemporary
is somewhat flippant in dealing with certain
bishops. The Bishop of Worcester is unacquainted
with theology, and Lord Cairns would make a better
bishop. The Bishop of Gloucester is a mere school-
master. The Bishops of Lincoln and Ely have the
best chance; but, judging from the Premier's ante-
cedents, he may have another surprise in store for
us. The suspense of the Advertiser and the publicans
must be something awful.

IiAIIT TON.

The most noble Henry Charles Fitzroy Somerset,
Duke of Beaufort, K.G., is a much better hand at
Aunt Sally than at penning a civil letter. The rector
of Winterbourne, the Rev. Frank Burges, wrote to
his grace for a subscription towards the rebuilding of
some schools. Tho duke answered that any amount
he was likely to contribute would only lighten the
burden on the shoulders of the incumbent,
and would snake no difference in their being
erected. As the Rev. F. Burges, in July
1807, had worked for Mr. Charles Be eley and
