NEW DISCOVERY in TEETII—Mr.
A_ HOWARD, Surgeon-Dentist, 52, Fleet. street, has in-
introduced AN ENTIRELY NEW DESCRIPTION of
ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, or li-
gatures. They so perfectly resemble the natural teeth, as not
to be distinguished from the originals by the closest observer;
they will NEVER CHANGE COLMAR OR DECAY, and
will found very superior to any teeth ever before used.
This method does not require the extraction of roots, or Buy
painful operation, and will support and preserve teeth that
are loose, and are, guaranteed to restore articulation and
mastication; and, that Sir. Howard's improvement may be
within reach of the most economical, he has fixed his chares
at the lowest scale possible. Decayed teeth rendered sound
and useful in mastication.-52, Fleet-street. At h.►me from

SSI LVER SUPERSEDED, and those corrosive
and injurious metals called Nickel and German Silver
supplanted by the introduction of a new and perfectly matchless
ALBATA PLATE. C. WATSON ('ate ALDERMAN)
41 and 42, Barbican, aided by a person of science in the amal-
gation of metals, has suceeeded in bringing to public notice the
moat beautiful article ever yet offered : possessing all the rich-
ness of Silver in appearance—with its durability and hardness
—with its perfect .weetness in 118 C—undergoing, ai it does, a
chem.cal process, by which all that is:nascous in mixedmetals is
entirely extracted—resist ng a:1 acids, may be cleaned as gilver,
and ii manufactured into every article for the Table and Side-
board.

C. Watson begs the Pub* will understand that this metal
is peculiarly his own, and that Silver is not more different from
Gold, than his metal is from all others ; on its intrinsic merits
alone he wishes it to be tested. And from the daily increasing
eulogiums he receives, he is convinced that nothing can prevent
its becoming an article of universul wear.

BURGLARY AND SUICIDE.—AXBRIDGE, MARCH 9.
—On the evening of Sunday, during church time, a light was
perceived in the parsonage house, the residence of the Rev.
George Beadon, vicar of this town. The neighbours, with a
kind promptitude, came to the door and rang the bell, tic., and
in a short time entered the house, both in front and back. Be-
fore any one was seen the report of a pistol was heard, near the
front door, and on reaching the spot a young man, well known to
all, was found lying dead, - with a discharged pistol in his
right hand, a loaded one in his pocket, and a stick, with
lead at both ends, by his side, and an iron instrument under the
front door. It was concluded that, seeing escape to be impos-
sible, he had shot himself. Not an article in the house vi as mi =sing
or seemed displaced. No accomplice was discovered. An inquest
has been held on the body, and a verdict of " Self-destruction by
a pistol," returned. On his person were found a brace of pistols,
one discharged and the other loaded, a life preserver, eleven
keys, a "jemmy," made on the best principle, one skeleton
key, and picklocks of various descriptions, also the key of the
front door, which had been lost about five weeks before, and
by which, no doubt, the entrance was efected.— Keene's Bath
Journal.
During the last few days, the operations of the
farmer in this county have been proceeding with energy.
Ploughing has been carried on with activity, and great breadths
of wheat land have been sown. The young wheats, in fa-
vourable situations, look strong and healthy, aid promise well.
—Newcastle Journal.
A GALLANT WITNESS.—At a trial the other day
in Clenmel, a police constable, who was examined as a wit-
ness, after giving his testimony that the prosecutrix in the
but what I heard the neighbcur ; say ; and
in m
case was not worthy of credit on her oath, added : —" I know
hi
gopionfiohnesr,what women say of one another is iof worthy
notyn
of belief,"
