A new and very curious invention connected with Dental
Surgery has been introduced by Mr. HOWARD, it is the pro-
duction of an entirely new description of Artificial Teeth,
fixed by his New Patent System of Self-adhesion and Capillary
Attraction without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so per-
fectly resemble natural teeth, as not to be distinguished from
the originals by the closest observer. They will never change
colour or decay, and will be found very superior to any teeth
ever before used. This method does not require the extrac-
tion of any teeth or roots, or any painful operation whatever,
and from the nature of the materials used the most perfect fit
is obtained. The invention is of importance to many persons,
and'thcse -- • - interested in it, should avail themselves of
this new T.

of a cure effected by Professor Holloway's invaluable medi-

in the British Fleet at Malta, had a very bad ulcerated ancle,
and after having been ill the Malta Hospital for six months,
was sent to England as an invalid to Portsmouth Hospital,
where he remained an inmate four months, there, as at Malta,
refusing to have the limb amputated, he was turned out in'
curable. He then came to Yarmouth, and was under a medi-
cal gentleman for about three months, but his ancle became
so much worse that all hope was lost. At this period, by la
advice, he tried Holloway's Ointment and Pills, which by, Wl'
remitted application, healed all the ulcers, and restored hie.'
to perfect health and strength.—l remain, Dear Sir, yours

MARTHA BELL, of Pitt. street, in this Town, had been for

Wounds in the breast. She had much experience in the Use;
of all the known remedies for the cure of ulcers, but withou.
any beneficial result, in fact she had nearly lost all faith au°,

condition of body and mind, she was persuaded to have re-
course to your invaluable Ointment and Pills, which she
immediately did, and in the course of a very short time the
effect produced was most astonishing; her appetite waft

MR. VANDENIIOFP'S RETIREMENT PROM TEE STAGE.—
As we have mentioned on previous occasions, this veteran
actorof the classic school of dramatic art is about to retire
from 'the stage, and is about to withdraw from public ad-
miration by a series of performances before that audience,
and their descendants, which, forty years ago, hailed his
rising talent, and laid the foundation of his fame. In
Liverpool he plumed his youthful wing, and from her
cognoecenti he earned his earliest laurels, and among
them he proposes to make his valedictory appearance. In
reference to this, the Liverpool Chronicle throws out as
an appropriate suggestion, "That a public dinner be given
to Mr. Vandenhoff in the autumn, when he has brought
his professional labours here to a close, and that some
suitable memento accompany it, to mark the respect
entertained for a gentleman who is associated in so many
minds amongst us with the British drama in its highest
and noblest walks. We are sure that it only requires the
idea to be thrown out in order to be seized upon and

realised. But, to be carried oat at all, it ought, to be
done.well, and the interval which will elapse will afford
time for the requisite preparations being matured in a
style worthy' the man and the occasion." In the pro-
priety of the suggestion we sincerely concur, and trust it
will be carried out, to use the emphatic words of our con-
temporary, "in a style worthyof the man and the occasion."
THE ECCENTRICITIES OF ti' EXEIBITION—says the
Athenteurn—are manifold :—First, there is the middle-
aged gentleman, rather short-sighted, who mistakes the
number of the picture, and concludes Mr. Hunt's "Awak-
ening Conscience" is Mr. Frosts " Chastity," and Mr.
Stone's " Old Story" is Mr. O'Neil's " Margaret and
Faust." Then there is generally the heavy friend from
the country' who will read the whole quotation in the
• - - -

catalogue, to the last word, with appropriate action
there is the deaf aunt, from whom you have expectation,
who insists on your filtering " all about it" through her
. There are always the two enthusiasts,
at the same time at a low picture, and per-
.orm what billiard players call " a cannon" with their
heads. There is the man who backs to see the effect

who boa

trumpet.

of which is that he fivally,falls over

a form :

re Is the happy artist, penned in a corner, and
obliged to listen to the jokes cut upon his own picture,
There is the man who will indulge .in loud detractions,
and talk of the " wretched daub" till he suddenly turns
and sees the artist who painted it frowning at his elbow.
There is the picture you break your neck to see, and the
picture you go on your knees before :—and there is your
friend, the vague amateur, who says -" the picture has
a— ; I cannot tell how to term it, a ,sort of a— :"
and your exact.connoisseur, who can always quote prece-
dent from the Carracci or. Correggio, says it is a very
good bit ; but it.wants tone, sir, tone."
LITERARY Feats.—A correspondent of the Weekly
News tells a story of a Parisian author, the sale of whose
productions always produced him. profit. At last he be-
came jealous of his wife, and dogged her steps. One day
he gave out that he was going to Versailles, but suddenly
he entered his wife' dressing-room. His ,unexpected en-
trance confounded his wile, she blushed and -turned pale
alternately; he was persuaded he was about demonstrating
that his happines wac for ever blasted, for as lie entered
the room his wife hastily locked a closet door,.and thrust
the key into her
._poeket. After a long scene he at last
forced the key from her. Unlocking the closet door lie
!bade his rival come forth. .No one budged. He repeated
his command. No answer. He madly threw open the
door, and saw—every copy of every edition of his .:-.vorks
uncut, unbound, untouched, piled up to the ceiling,fdling
.every chink and corner oflthe closet ! His wife, whma he
had so wronged by his suspicions, had devoted her pin:
money to the gratification a his vanity • she had for years
been the " discerning public, " she had all along been the
",courteous reader ' to wham he had never appealed in
vain.

AN AMATEUR POSYMAN.—A lady of high respectability,
residing in, one of the avenues .of Brooklyn, has a charm-
, ing little boy, very observant, imitative, and active. The
child having noticed the postman constantly leaving
letters, and moving off quickly, thought it would be a very
nice thing to become a postman. So he one day went to
his mamma's escritoire and took .out some twenty or.
thirty letters, tied them up, and sallied forth, leaving one
at every house, and moving off quickly. The lady was
rather txrprised when her next neighbour brought her an
open letter, which she said somebody had left at the door ;
but wh at was her astonishment, when slaiting hour arrived
at another, and another, and another lady coining in, all
bringing open 'letters, until her ample parlour was com-
pletely crammed. You need not doubt the mirth and fun
grew fast and furious, as each lady entered with the sam e
tale; and the little fellow was elated beyond measure to
find what a capital postman he was. But the best of the
funwas, that every lady, one and all, asserted she had not
unfolded or read one word. Oh, no ! not they ; ladies are
far, far above prying into other ladies' letters.—knicker-
bee ker.
ARCHITECTS AND BruLDEns.—The late Mr. Alexander,
architect of Rochester bridge, and other fine buildings in
Kent, was once under cross-examination, in a special jury
case at Maidstone, by Sergeant, afterwards Baron Garrow,
who wished to detract from the weight of his testimony.
After asking him what was his name, the sergeant pro-
ceeded.—" You are a builder, I believe !"—`• No sir, I am
not a builder, I am an architect."—" Ah ! well; architect
or builder, builder or architect, they are much the same,
I suppose ?"—" I beg your pardon, sir, I cannot admit that;
I consider them totally different."—"Oh, indeed I—perhaps
you will state wherein this great difference consists."—

An architeet, sir, prepare; the plans, conceives the
design, draws out the specifications—in short, supplies the
mind; the builder is merely the bricklayer or the carpen-
ter—the builder is in fact the machine ; the architect the
power that puts the machine together, and sets it a going."
Oh, very well, Mr. Architect, that will do; and now,
after your very ingenious distinction without a difference,
perhaps you can inform the court who was the architect.of
the Tower of Babel?" - The reply, for promptness and
wit, is perhaps not .to bp rivalled in the whole history of
rejoinder :—" There was no architect, sir,—and hence the
confusion F"

ORIGIN OF ORATOR,IOB..-.St. Philip di Neri, who
founded the oratorio, in the year 1540, at Rome, saw
with regret the faithful desert the church for the theatre.
Knowing the taste of the Romans for music, he conceived
the idea of finding a good. poet write some interludes
taken from the Scriptures, and, having had them set to
music, he ordered them to be played in his church. The
-,,ess was prodigous, and this kind of drama was
g.n oratorio from the church of the Oratory, where

atatas for several persons, executed
either in a church or theatre, like other concerted music.

-'tions of a regular drama, save that they

All must admit would not do to reject the aid, though so tardily
rendered. Still it becomes questionable how far
the present interference of Austria is likely to
prove advantageous. It has been withheld until
it was of little practical value, for the Turks had
proved more than a match for their enemies, and
had almost driven them back ; and should the
EMPEROR of AUSTRIA have still a hankering
regard for his old ally, the EMPEROR of RUSSIA,
the presence of his troops in Moldavia and Wal-
lachia,under pretence of expelling the Russians, may
really be intended to shield the latter from the
vengeance of the justly-incensed Turks. Then comes

the question as to the proposed negotiationsforterms
of peace ; and, when the Danubian Provinces have
been evacuated by the Russians, the German

Powers may consider that their conditions have
been satisfied, and interpose obstacles to the further
prosecution of the war. Nor should such obstacles
be underrated, when it is considered that Austria
will actually be in possession, with a kind of claim
upon the SULTAN of TURKEY for the show of
assistance which has been made. Such an arrange-
ment, however, unless it should impose conditions
which, under present circumstances, the EMPEROR
of RUSSIA is not likely to grant, ought to be in no
way satisfactory to the Western Powers, nor will it
guaranteethat independence of the Ottoman Empire
for which the war was ostensibly undertaken.
We have ample evidence that far too much was
yielded to Russia by the treaty of Adrianople ; and,
though five and twenty years have since elapsed,
the necessity for a remedy is not the less urgent.
Both England and France hai-e entered into

expensive armaments in order to redress grievances
of long standing, which were only less grievous
'because some reliance was placed upon the pro-
fessions and goal faith of Russia,. All such con-
fidence is now utterly demolished, and the duty
will not be half performed if we listen to any
overtures for peace until the power of Russia in
the Black Sea is effectually destroyed. Sevastopol
must no longer be a stronghold in which hostile
fleets may take -shelter until a favourable oppor-
tunity may arise for gratifying the ambitious
deggns of Russian policy ; and unless the EMPEROR
of 'RUSSIA will consent to dismantle and demolish

this fortress, 'the duty must be performed, at any
hazard, by the combined forces of the alEes. The
task may be a difficult one, but we shall have the
assistance of the hardy mountaineers of Circassia
on-the land side, from which it is only separated by
a narrow strait, while it is only accessible to the
Russian forces by a narrow isthmus. Another
object will be to secure the freedom of the mouths
of the Danube, and the navigation of that river to
European commerce. If these points were gained,
and the Black Sea thus rendered free, we might
be in a condition to treat for peace ; but all that has
been done will be thrown away, if Russia should be
