ARTIFICIAL TEEI H.
Mr. W. would recommend his painless and effective
method of fixing Artificial Teeth by self-adhesion, or ca-
pillary attraction, requiring neither the use of springs or
other fastenings, nor the removal of Stumps. This plan
has now been adopted for some years by his uncle, Mr.
Hair. and the peat advantage over every other system
has been fully proved by the numerous Atients who have
already availe themselves of this method. This system
may be applied d
to either Natural or Mineral Teeth, and
will answer all the purposes of articulation. mastication,
&c. Mr. W.'s newly-invented Mineral Teeth are war-
ranted never to discolour or decay ; they approach nature
so closely as to defy detection, and are so adapted as to be
a support to any Teeth that remain, preserving them for
years.
Mr. W. has had the honour of receiving Testimonials
from some of the most eminent Medical Men in the king-
dom, including, amongst others, Sir B. C. Brodie, Bart.,
Sergeant Surgeon to the Queen; Herbert Mayo, Esq.,
F.R.S., late Senior Surgeon to the Middlesex Hospital ;
Edward Tuson, Esq., F.R.S., Surgeon to the Middlesex
Hospital; Caesar Hawkins, Esq., Surgeon to St. George's

reception of our Queen at Gotha was quite as enthusiastic
as at any other place, triumphant arches being erected, and
the authorities of the place evincing all possible respect.
On Sunday, the 31st ult., the royal party attended di-
vine service at the chapel in Freidenstein. In the even-

quet took place at Freidenstein Palace, for which covers

On Monday the Queen attended a musical festival. An
immense orchestra was erected ; the band was composed
of 150 performers, and there were upwards of 1000 singers
besides.
Her Majesty left Gotha on Wednesday morning, for
Fulda, to pass the night, and on Thursday slept in Frank-
fort, at the unrivalled Hotel d'Angleterre. The Queen
descended the Rhine, and slept at the Hotel de Bellevue,
in Deutz, opposite Cologne. Her Majesty did not sleep
at any place between Frankfort and Deutz, but embarked
at Mayence in the Fairy steamer, after a visit to Wiesba-
den. Bohemian glass has been sent in such quantities to
her Majesty, that one of her palaces would scarcely hold it.
Her Majesty and Prince Albert arrived at Maline with
their suite, on Saturday, on their way to Antwerp, which
they were expected to reach soon after five in the after-

pendent upon contingent circumstances) that the royal
party will visit his Majesty Louis Philippe, at the Chateau
d'Eu, previous to returning to England.

IRISH CHURCHES.—It seems that £31,500 have been
yearly expended in Ireland for providing requisites for the
decent celebration of Divine worship, and that the amount
was expected to be increased. It was stated that £10,603
would arise in the current year from the fall of per-
petuities.
The repeal rent, for the first thirty-four weeks in 1814,
amounted to £35,784 16s. Id., whilst for the correspond-

In 1843 and 1814 Mr. O'Connell wrung from the poor of
Ireland, in the shape of repeal rent, no less a sum than

and slept at Lord Rosse's on Monday night, where he
examined the prodigious telescope.
Dr. M`Hale has addressed another letter to Sir Robert
Peel, on the Irish Colleges Bill. It is but a wearisome
iteration of those stereotyped phrases with which, like an
excited scold, he has made us so familar. " Unhallowed
confederation," " impious scheme," " infidel project,"
" unprincipled shifts," "apostate allies," abound through-
out the letter, but the performance is a feeble one—wor-
thy, and nothing more, of the poor pedant it proceeds
from. If the ministerial " scheme" is to be written
down, it must be by another pen than that which the.Tuam
noTitular so weakly wields. Sir Robert,doubt, is glad
of an " ally" who aids the " project" which he desires to
demolish.
REPEAL ASSOCIATION.—At the weekly meeting of this
body, yesterday week, Mr. J. O'Connell postponed the
intended address to the Protestants of the north. Mr.
Steele declared his belief that the Orangemen were by no
means badly disposed towards the Repealers, and that,
but for the " vile Orange press," an amalgamation of all
parties would already have occurred. There was some-
what of a dispute between Mr. J. O'Connell and Mr.
Reynolds, touching the charge brought by the latter
against the Dublin Corporation. Capt. Broderick found
fault with the Times commissioner for giving the pas to
the Saxon race rather than to the Celt; and Mr. John
O'Connell had another fling at the Bequests Act aid the
" infidel colleges," attributing to the teaching of such
institutions the religious disturbances now prevalent in
Germany.—The rent of the week was announced to be
