When it was announced that the Legislative Chamber was to be renewed, most men on this side of the Chan- nel expected, the form to be gone through with nearly the pre- cision, and almost the result, of a military drill. The French Government plainly intended such to be the mode, and such the end of the elections. Loyalty to the Emperor was to be the watchword of candidates and electors; and no one was to be returned who did not adopt that shibboleth. M Billault, iu his authoritative circular, pointed out all this with the greatest clearness; and the submissive Chamber, just deceased, was re- commended to be, by a Phoenix sort of operation, created into a new life. It expired in the odour of loyalty. It was to rise from its ashes, still redolent of the same sweet perfume. The French, however, are too lively for such a solemn, and too frank for such a deceptive, process. They do not wish to galvanise a political corpse, but to have an animated body in its place. In the Chamber of Legislation they desire to see real legislators, not imperialist slaves. Three of the electoral districts returned Republicans, men of real mark and distinction; but by the French law the elections were void, as the majorities were not sufficient. And in three other districts, where the Govern- ment candidates succeeded, the majorities have also been so small as to necessitate a fresh election. This, in a country where public meetings are forbidden, where the press is com- pelled to speak with " bated breath," and where even election addresses are not allowed perfect freedom of circulation ( for proof of which see our Foreign Intelligence), is really wonderful. Iu practical capacity to secure liberty, the French have several times shown their deficiency, but their love of it must be hearty and sincere. They want a little business- like education as to political forms, but their principles are right enough. But at present their honourable wishes are defeated. Never mind : the beginning of the contest for the right of self- government has begun. Independently of all the obstructions which power threw in the way of freedom of election, there were obstacles to the suc- cess of an opposition such as might well have induced despair. The tactics of the Oppositionists were not understood, and the party was consequently divided. While all the Government business was conducted with the unity and steadiness of an army movement, that of the Opposition was subject to all the fluctuations of individual will. Some were for abstaining alto- gether from voting; some for voting only for such Republicans as it was known would take the oath of allegiance to the Em- peror ; some again for voting for any distinguished men of the Republican party, leaving them to settle with the Government the matter of taking the oath. This last party carried the elec- tions in three districts of Paris, and shook the Government in three others, yet it seemed of the above described divisions of the party the least likely to be successful. The people did not at first understand the use of electing men who were never likely to be admitted to take their seats in their Legislature. Though the most ardent military people in the world, the French did not in the first instance apply their military rules to poli- tical contests, and perceive that they must not despair of suc- cess against the fortress of absolute power merely because they could not be sure of instantly entering its gates, and carrying on the contest withia its walls. They have now come to learn, and will probably profit by the lesson, that to show a force in the open field must be the first proceeding, to form the lines of siege the next, to carry tha fortress the last, the result indeed of the first two, and that in politics as in war, immediate results are not always the most important, nor small successes at any time to be despised. THE FINSBURY PARK. The formation of this park, so necessary to the health of a much crowded quarter of the metropolis, may be considered as postponed for a year. The opposition to the bill for making the park was led in name by Mr W. Williams, but in fact by Sir John Shelley, who, though one of the members for Westminster, is more a Sussex country gentleman than a metropolitan member. It is all very specious to put the objection ou the supposed ground of an ill- chosen site, but when it is known that this is only part of a plan for surrounding the metropolis with a belt of parks, the distance of any one from a selected spot in a body of the towu becomes immaterial. The whole metropolis benefits from the " consecration " of any large open space on its confines to the purposes of securing fresh air and the opportunity for healthy innocent recreation to any portion of the metropo- litan population. Mr W. Williams and Sir J. Shelley may not see this, but it is nevertheless true. There is no such isolation of the city of Westminster from the borough of Finsbury as to make the one unaffected by what affects the other. And the whole country is operated 011 by the condition of the metropolis. Yet, succeeding to and supporting the objection put forward by Messrs Williams a& dShelley ( who pretended to speak for Lam- beth and Westminster), came the objection that it was under- stood that the Treasury would advance £ 50,000 out of the £ 250,000 required to complete the park. The country gentlemen took fire at this and said, what had the country to do with what was required for the health and pleasure of the metropolis f This question might be answered by another— What has a parent to do with the health and pleasure of his children ? There is hardly a family in the country that does not contribute one member at least to the metropolitan population. That population is sustained and recruited from the country. The allurements of wealth and honours bring up men from the country to LondoB, or country maidens marry men already settled in London, aud the natural ties of blood and affection are ssrong between the provinces and the town. Is it nothing to the country that the town should bo healthy P In the matter we have thus indicated it is everything. But more. The obligations which London owes to the country are repaid by substantial acts. London does not receive in order in a miserly way to appropriate the wealth of the country. Whatever it obtains it does not selfishly appropriate, but generously distributes. It exemplifies, nay, exceeds, the principle developed in fable. Messrs Williams and Shelley, and the country gentlemen who supported them, did not merely represent the foolish members in their sedition against the belly, but the still greater folly of which those mem- bers would have been guilty had they also risen in sedition against the head. The metropolis performs for the country the double function. There is no great invention, no ennobling effort, that does not either originate in the metropolis or come to maturity there, and there receive its means of practical application. The debate was adjourned for a week; in other words, the scheme for the park was postponed for the session upon this miserable ground of opposition, that, if necessary, the Govern- ment had consented to advance a sum of £ 50,000 out of the Con- solidated Fund to secure the completion of the park, it would be well for the nation if country gentlemen knew the difference between a suicidal parsimony and a sensible economy, and would honestly act on the knowledge. There is strong reason to be- lieve them deficient iu both these respects. LAND REGISTRATION. Some of our contemporaries, the Daily News for example, have taken up the fancy that because the Laud Registration Commissioners have made a report, recommending a registration of the title to land, that, therefore, all that a law reformer can wish would be accomplished if the commissioners' report could be embodied in an act of Parliament. This fancy is indulged in by geatlemen who have allowed their imagination to control their judgment, or who have written with more hopefulness than practical knowledge. The Land Registration scheme, as pro- posed in this report, is incomplete iu the extreme. If carried into immediate effect, it would only register the fee simple title, but it would not do that in a way which would enable any intending lender to see that he was about to lend his money on good se- curity. It would leave the necessity for numerous and varied searches still existing— it would give only an indirect check upon excessive charges on the fee simple estate, and indirect means to any lender or creditor to discover the nature aud extent of those charges. In fact, instead of a real reform of present evils, it would only give to the country a palliative for some of them. It would show that the primary title to land was vested in A, but would not show to what charges that laud was subject, or whether even in A's hands it was not charged beyond its value. Three of the commissioners have special plans of their own, and one of them, a distinguished conveyancer, has drawn out sketches of two bills, the latter of which, with its two hundred and odd clauses, is quite euough to convince any one really acquainted with the subject, that there is not as yet any plan which was fit for legislative adoption. This is all the more plain from the fact that several very eminent persons ( not members of the commis- sion) strongly dissent from the conclusions which the report sets forth. In truth, the commissioners were restricted, both as to their examinations and their recommendations. It was assumed that part only of the subject required to be settled, and they were directed to confine their attention to that part. It is, therefore, no fault of theirs that the matter has been but par- tially dealt with. Nor, on the other hand, is it any fault of the Lord Chancellor that he does not pledge the Government to a bill, founded on a report to which Messrs Wilson, D, Lewis, Headlam, and Scully ( among the commissioners) not only do not give their entire support, but which they all dissent from to some degree, two of the number dissenting in very important particulars. It is a mistake to suppose that the peers or the great land- owners are ready to consent to a really good scheme of registra- tion. To such a scheme as would diminish their lawyers' bills they are ready to consent, but not to one which would make the title to the land, and the incumbrances which affect it, perfectly plain and unmystified. They are too scared with the notion of " impertinent curiosity" to consent to anything of the kind. And yet anything short of this would be a " delusion" if not " a mockery and a snare." The Lord Chancellor does well not io propose a half- and half measure which would satisfy no one. „ VACCINATION. We have not space to do more thai just to notice the Report on Vaccination. The case in favour of vaccination is established on the clearest evidence, and the pretended dangers of it are completely and satisfactorily disproved. In a matter of such general importance we hasten to announce this as our deliberate conviction, for it will still the beating of many an anxious heart. We shall on a future occasion make a lengthened reference to this important subject.

' THE QUEEN'S VISIT TO MANCHESTER.— Her Majesty is to pay a visit to the Exhibition of Art Treasures at Manchester on Tuesday next. AERIVAL OP THE DUKE AND DUCHESS OF MONTPENSIER.— The Duke and Ducbess of Moutpensier and their children have arrived at Claremont on a visit to the ex- Royal Family ot France. DEATH OP VISCOUNTESS EVEESLEY.— We regret to announce the death of Viscountess Evcrsley, which took place at four o'clock on Saturday morning week at his lordship's residence in Eaton- place. The death of her ladyship was most unexpected, the first symptoms of illness only being displayed on Wednesday evening. Viscountess Eversley was youngest daughter of the late Mr Samuel Wliitbread, and Lady Elizabeth, eldest daughter of Charles first Earl Grey, and was married to Viscount Evers- ley, the late Speaker of the House of Commons ( then Mr Shaw Lefevre) in 1817, by whom she leaves surviving issue several daughters. DEATH OP LOUD ALVANLET.— We have to announce the death of Lord Alvanley, who expired at half- past three o'clock on Wednesday morning at liis residence in Bruton- street, Berkeley- square. The deceased peer bad been suffering from gout during the last four months. The deceased was third sou of Richard, first Lord Alvanley, by Anne Dorothea, sister of the late Lord Skelmersdale He was born on the 9th of April, 1791, and married on the 25th of June, 1831, Lady Arabella Vane, fifth daughter of the late Duke of Cleveland, by whom ho leaves no issue. The late peer succeeded to the title on the death of his brother in 1819. By the death of his lordship the peerage becomes extinct, FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. FRANCE. The Jfoniteur of Thursday publishes an order of the Minister of the Interior, visiting the Siecle newspaper with a third ai* ™ inC in conseeuence of sn article which appeared in it ou r. » r * 7 ':'*•/ » « l « etnrs rrhs should vote for wednesuay, imputing „„ . Government candidates an intention " to damage family interests by restoring the rights of primogeniture, aud, making matrimony a strictly religious institution, to menace property by establishing, under the delusive name of liberty of bequest, the right of despoiling ons's children for the advantage of religious corporations, and to injure the cause of eivil equality, and that of the liberty of thought, speech, and writing." The Minister remarks that" The Emperor's Govern- ment, which is founded upon the sovereignty of the people and the principles of 1789, henceforth the immovable bases of society in France, cannot allow the ideas of order and progress which it represents, and the electoral body by whom they are approved, to be thus calumniated; that the Siecle, having already in- curred two previous warnings, might now legally be suspended, but the Government, which has allowed the greatest latitude to the electoral contest, does not desire, though it has a right to do so, so near the termination of that contest, to strike a blow even at one of the most active organs of that opposition, the worth of which the public will readily appreciate; and the Government will therefore content itself with warning the Sibcle that it will not be permitted, for the sake of a sterile agitation, to misrepresent the honourable intentions of a policy which constitutes the glory, the quiet, and the security of the country." The elections in Paris have gone off with the greatest order and tranquillity. Very strong military guards were stationed at all the Mairies, but no ocoasion arose for their services. If, however, everything passed off quietly aud apparently legally at the Mairies, the same thing cannot be said of the electoral operations all over the town. At Belleville the distributors of the Opposition candidate's bulletins were set upon and beaten by some ill- looking fellows not known in the locality. The police interfered, but only to arrest the distributors, and let the aggressors go free. A similar incident occurred at the same hour iu another section of the same district. The bulletins bearing the name of M F. de Lasteyrie were taken away from the persons legally employed in hawking them, and the men were arrested. After this was doue, an elector volunteered to distribute the Opposition bulletins, but he had scarcely begun his functions when he was struck with a bludgeon on his back, and seized by a sergest- de- viUe, who carried him off to the nearest guardhouse. The men thus most foully and illegally arrested were kept in custody five hours, and were only at last released in consequence of the active exertions of the Opposi- tion candidate himself. The bulletins in their possession were, however, all destroyed. At Nanterre some distri- butors of Opposition bulletins were ordered by the gendarmes to leave the commune. A police agent entered the house of an elector in Belleville without any warrant, made a search, and on finding bulletins bearing the name of M F. de Lasteyrie, he seized them. Other facts of the same nature are reported. Extreme is the anxiety of the Government to bring their men to the poll. In the course of the night a return was made out of all the electors of Paris who did not vote on the first day, and a circular, accompanied by a bulletin for the Government candi- dates, was sent to them in the morning. The Ere Nouvelle of La Rochelle publishes a complaint by M Fabius Filippi, an Opposition candidate, setting forth that the men employed by him to placard his address had been threatened with arrest by the commissary of police, who, assisted by the garde champetre, had torn down his addresses from the walls in the presence of many witnesses; that his son having called on the mayor to complain of these outrages, could obtain no redress, but had been called a mountebank; and that for all these and many other still more serious reasons, he protests against the election of General Vast Vimeux, the Government candidate. The Prefect of the Gers has suspended M Gounon, the mayor of Eauze, for coming forward as an Opposition candidate. The Mayor of Bordeaux announces in a " communicated note," in- serted in the journals of that city, that he intends to apply to the Belgian Government to prosecute the Independance Beige for having circulated the false news that he had sent a bribe of 5f to several electors, together with their electoral card. The origin of the story, he says, must have been this:— He lately received from M Lacoste, a notary, the sum of 3,500f to distri- bute in charity. He wrote to the cures and protestant and Jewish ministers of the fourteen parishes iu Bordeaux to ask for the names of the most needy among their parishioners, and distributed the money pursuant to their recommendations. It may have happened that some electors may have received relief from this fund, but none of them could have received ic with their electoral cards, for the distribution was made by a different officer. PIEDMONT. The American bark Nevada has arrived at Genoa laden with cannon, which have been sent from the citizens of Boston to the fortress of Alessandria. A debate arose in the Pied montese Chambers as to the vote for the army. It was objected to as too large. The Minister defended it as necessary. Count Revel thought it too large as it ex- ceeded in relative proportions tha vote for the army of France. The debate thus lying between a Minister and an Oppositionist, one of the Extreme Left rose, and spoke what is probably the thought of the nation. M Pallavicini said that since 1848 every good Piedmontese must be a good Italian, and that every good I taliau must desire the war of independence. Hence a strong army was necessary, and he, for one, would always vote fsr the bills tending to increase it. As to finances, those of Piedmont were not in a worse condition than those of other countries, and if the expenses had increased the national prosperity had increased also. The antipathies between Piadmont and Austria were on the increase, and diplomatic notes might be superseded by cannon. Would Piedmont then rely on France? Louis Na- poleon would never enter into any but a French war. No; the only thing to be done was to have a powerful army ready. Several other members spoke in favour of the bill or against it, and the discussion was adjourned. ROMAN STATES^ The Bolognese, in the memorial wliich they presented to the Pope, alluded to the prolonged occupation of the country by foreign troops. In Rome, national antipathy between the Ita- lian and French soldiery has produced several sanguiuary frays during the last week, and it has required a due admixture of severity and indulgence on the part of the French general and the Roman military authorities to patch up a reconciliation be- tween the enraged belligerents. The blame of the affair is generally attributed to some soldiers of the 25th French Regi- ment, recently returned from the Crimea, who abused the Romans for being " Soldats du Pape." The Roman Chasseur* were especially indignant at beholding the Frenchmlm walking before their barracks with bits of maccaroni in their mouths, which they pretended to smoke like pipes, an affront which the Chasseurs would have avenged at once if their major had not been on the spot and restrained them. The Piazza della Chiesa Nuova has been the principal arena for the combatants hitherto, one or two of whom have been killed, and several severely wounded, in their various skirmishes , and the inhabitants of the Regola, principally fellmongers, with amazingly long knives, showed a decided disposition to take part in the fray. About a fortnight since 200 Roman Chasseurs went into the gardens of the French Academy at the Villa Medici, with hostile intentions towards any French soldiers whom they might fall in with there, but the latter, finding themselves in a decided minority, pru- dently avoided the contest, and the Director of the Academy, M Schnetz, went down to remonstrate with the Chasseurs upon the impropriety of their invading a private promenade, and driving away with alarm peaceable women and children. After some parleying the Chasseurs went off. The result of all this has been a severe order of the day from General Goyon, followed by the distribution of money for a grand peacemaking, so that for the last two or three afternoons groups of dragoons and infantry- men, chasseurs and artillerymen, of the two armies have been seen arm- in- arm, resorting to beer- shops and osterias, where the recent battle- cries have given place to stentorian shouts of " Buon Francese 1 Bon Italiane!" WANT OE ATHLETIC SPOETS IN AMERICA,—' When some much- tormented victim of spiritual afflictions asked Martin Luther what prophylactic was likely to prove most effectual against the assaults of the devil, the great- hearted Reformer an- swered him that he knew no better assurance against the inroads of the Evil One than a capital supper and a bottle of good Rhine wine. In the sound good sense of this celebrated reply lurks a complete system of practical morality worthy the grave attention of all people, and particularly of the " universal Yankee nation." The unbalanced despotism of the intellect is the sorest social curse under which we labour in the United States. Sports of all kinds, and especially the hearty athletic sports which develope the body with the brain, and bring forward the sharp, quick, active qualities of what may be called the " physical" mind in an equal degree with the subtler faculties of ratiocination, have never been encouraged among us as they should have been. Our muscular nature rarely gets a fair chance in our life. We exist by and for the nerves, and it is uo fanciful theory which attributes the sudden excesses and equally sudden relapses of political feeling, the partisan intolerance, and the coquettish im- patience of our public life in no small degree to the want among us of national games and pastimes, mainly joyous and earnest. We are continually told that the European races are degene- rating physically ou this continent, and no longer ago than last summer an elaborate paper was read before the British Association at Cheltenham, iu England, to prove that at no distant date the Anglo- American and His- pauo- Americau races in the New World must utterly disappear by their own default, and give place, in all human probability, to a mighty republic of pig- tailed Chinamen! The paper was written seriously and seriously discussed, and not a few facts of somewhat portentous significance were ad- duced to support its position. Absurd as such notions are, there is very good reason, however, for believing that the standard of physical vigour in the older regions of this country is by no means equal to that standard as it exists in the newer States of the Far West, or the more Kenial nations of Europe. While the average wealth of the individual in New York, for instance, exceeds considerably the average wealth of the indi- vidual in London, the average length of human life, which is the only tolerably safe test that can be applied to determine the sanitary condition of a people, is decidedly greater in London than in New York. That is, the average citizen of the American metropolis, with more ample means of subsistence at his command, enjoys less of the priceless boon of health than the average citizen of the British capital. It is easily possible, of course, to find a hundred plausible suppositions which may serve to account for this surprising and very unsatisfactory truth. But there can be no reasonable doubt that one very prominent and efficient cause of this differ- ence between ourselves and our Transatlantic kinsmen in respect of physical development is to be found in the greater prevalence throughout England of a taste for all manner of manly and athletic exercises. While the coarser and more brutal amusements of bull and bear baiting, or of dog and cock fight- ing, have gradually disappeared before the advancing spirit of the age ( since the death of the late Lord Sefton, the present chief of the Tory Churchmen, the Earl of Derby, is, we believe, the only respectable representative left in England of the aris- tocratic patrons of the cockpit), the cordial and invigorating sports of the field and the sea— hunting, cricket, salmon fishing, and yachting— have been as steadily on the increase. The young Englishman, who begins his education in self- reliance and fair play, through the trying ordeal of football at Eton or Rugby, graduates on the back of a 16- hand thorough bred, or on the deck of a clipping schooner. Englishmen of all ranks share ac- cording to their degrees and opportunities in the exhil rating and healthful influences of these national tastes, and the plea- sure of the few enures in a thousand different ways to the profit of the many,— New York Times. ROYAL BEITISH BANK — At a meeting in the Bankruptcy Court on Wednesday, it was stated that the prosecution of persons connected with this bank would be directed against ten defendants, all of whom had either been in custody or were re- leased on bail, with one exception, and that was Mr Cameron, who was then on his way from France, in custody. It was a mistake to suppose that the cost of the prosecutions would come out of the estate ; not one farthing would be taken out of the assets. The assignees propose to defer the next dividend, which would probably be a fiiias oue, until the day of the adjourned ex- amination. The dividend would then probably be brought up to 10s, which was all that the assignees had ever anticipated. The 23d of September was the day appointed for the adjourned examination and the dividend meeting. Mr Camerou arrived in London on Wednesday evening. A MAN KILLED IN A QUAREEL.— At Reading, on Thursday, a man was killed by a fellow workman. Two or three gangs of mowers had been employed in the King's Meadows, and about seven o'clock one gang charged the other with having gone be- yond the line laid down for them to work to, thereby depriving them of earning so much money as they would otherwise be able. The first gang, consisting of three men, named Holmes, Case, and Appleton, were much annoyed, and they kept up a fierce quarrel with the other, party, to which the man, Joseph Lawrance, who was killed, belonged. Lawrance said but little, and was anxious to walk away. Case, however, kept urging Appleton to strike Lawrance, and to fight him. Lawrance had his scythe on his back ready to go home, but could not get away, being surrounded by a mob. Appleton appeared exceedingly angry, and at last raised his fists, and gave two severe blows under Lawrance's ear, which knocked him down, and in two minutes he was a corpse. Appletou and his comrades Holmes and Case were immediately taken into custody, and the body of Lawrance was removed to an inn to await an inquest. MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. MOVEMENTS OP TROOPS.— The 88th Regiment, under the command of Colonel Maxwell, C. B., quitted the camp on Thurs- day for Portsmouth en route for India. It seems almost a pity that this fine corps, whose deeds in the Crimea did so much to- wards showing the asoessjtv for the initltuilan n, " " *"" ... an61' der for distinguished valour, should leave the country on the very eve of the imposing ceremonial which on Friday inaugurated the Victoria Cross. The regimeut was loudly cheered as it left the camp. It is now at its full strength, the muster roll showing 1,085 rank and file.— An admirable step has been taken at Aldershott, which even the troops themselves do not dislike, and which will oonvert the dark colliery aspect of the camp to the gay, festive look which the cantonments of the little army wore on Chobham ridges. A real camp is ta bo formed, and next week a considerable portion of the troops now sweltering discontentedly within the black hideous- looking shells which form the north and south camps will be under canvas.— On Tuesday 92 non- commissioned officers and men selected from the 1st ( the King's) Dragoon Guards, 4th ( Queen's Own) Light Dragoons, 14th ( the King's) Light Dragoons, 8th Foot, 24th, 32d ( 19 men), 59th, 61st ( 15 men), S2d, 63d ( 9 men), 6ith, 76th, 78th Highlanders, 81st, 83d, 86th, 87th ( Royal Irish Fusiliers), and 96th Regiments left Chatham, haviag been discharged from the ssrvice. THE ROYAL MILITARY ACADEMY.— The half- yearly examina- tions at the Royal Military Academy, Woolwich, having been brought to a close early on the 15th iust, the remainder of the term has been occupied in giving the gentlemen cadets of that institution a practical insight into the different drills and exer- cises considered necessary for officers of Artillery and Engineers. On the 16th, the light field battery belonging to the theoretical class was equipped with the usual camp equipage, including in- trenching tools, & c, aud was marched by Captain Shakespear and Lieut Clarke te a ground selected by Quartermaster Elliott, of that institution, as the most eligible spot for an encampment, this being the first time that the cadets hare performed this es- sential part sf a soldier's duty since the summer of 1854 ( when Lieut- Colonel Eardley Wilmot encamped the company on Less- less Heath). The camp was formed, the guns parked, pickets driven and lines attached for securing the horses, teuts pitched, and camp guard mounted, in an incredibly short space of time. On the bugles sounding the requisite number of cadets from ach subdivision were assembled and drew rations, which were served out by the quartermaster. The cadets then assembled in camp fashion and partook of dinner. Before striking camp Lieut Clarke exhibited a specimen of his Crimean experience by de- monstrating the practicability of pitching and forming a tent by means of two blankets and two muskets for the shelter of a couple of advanced sentinels, so as to protect themselves from heavy rain, & c. The cadets of the competitive class were on that day, the 16th, marched to Woolwich Marshes for rifle practice, with artillery carbines. Oa the 18th, the whole company was marched, under the charge of the commanding officer ( taking with them the light battery), to the marshes, where gun and howitzer practice was carried en at ranges varying from 700 to 1,000 yards with solid shot and shell, and common case at 300 yards. The practice was considered very creditable. On the 19th, the company paraded under arms for battalion drill, under the commanding officer. On Thursday, the company, under Capt Shakespear, with the whole of the officers attached, pa- raded at 2: 30 in review order, under arms, and were supplied with blank ammunition for inspection. After receiving Colonel Elwyn, the Inspector of Studies, with a general salute, and Acting- Governor of the institution, in the absence of Colonel Wilford, who is suffering from severe indisposition, a minute in- spection of the company took place. The battalion then per- formed various evolutions. At the termination of the inspection the company was highly complimented by Colonel Elwyn on their steadiness under arms, their high state of discipline, and uniformly good conduct during the past half- year. The colonel then thanked Captain Shakespear and the officers of the com- pany for their successful exertions in the military traiuing of the cadets. Tho gallant colonel proceeded to distribute the prizes. A very interesting exhibition then took place in the reading- room of the academy— the result of the cadets' labours during the recreation hours. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. MOVEMENTS OF SHIPS OP WAR.— The Princess Charlotte, 104, barrack ship, Captain King, C. B., was officially inspected at Spithead by the Commander- in- Chief on Tuesday, prior to her being reported ready for sailing for China. She is to sail this day. The Cumberland, 70, Captain Dickson, flag of Rear- Admiral P. W. P. Wallis, got under way from Spithead ou Tuesday afternoon, and dropped out to St Helen's, whence she sails on Wednesday for the South- east Coast of America station, to relieve the Indefatigable, 50, flag of Rear- Admiral Johnstone, whose period of service has expired. The despatch screw steam gun- vessel Victor, Com- mander Algernon F. R. De Horsey, which arrived at Sheerness ou Sunday last from the North America and West India station, is ordered to be paid off there. During her passage home she experienced very heavy weather. The engines of the Renown, 91 guns, new screw steamship, were tried in the basin at Sheer- ness on Monday by the engiueers and superintendents of Messrs Penn and Sons. Mr Hartree and Mr Wigzel superintended the trial. She made fifty- two revolutions per minute, with 201b pressure and a vacuum of twenty- six. The Intrepid, 6, screw despatch gun- vessel, Commander W. Wood, arrived at Ports- mouth on Tuesday forenoon from the West India station to be paid off. The Melville, 72, hospital ship, Commander Trollope, sailed from Spithead on Thursday for Hong Kong. The Devas- tation, 6, paddle sloop, Commander Marshall, towed her into a good offing. The Arab, 12, Commander Pearse, arrived at Spit- head during the night of Wednesday from the West India sta- tion. She left Havannah on the 25th ult, and had strong fair wiuds up to the 13th inst, when she met a strong gale easterly, which lasted till the 16th, since which time she had variable light winds and thick weather.

MURDER OP A WOMAN BY HER HUSBAND.— On Monday before the magistrates at Stratford, in Essex, Michael Crawley, a labourer, an ill- looking man, a^ ed sixty- two, was examined on the charge of having murdered his wife, Mary Crawley, aged sixty two, by beating in her skull with a billhook. The unhappy couple lived in Well- street, Stratford, a locality principally oc- cupied by the low Irish. The prisoner was a jobbing labourer, and on two or three days last week was employed haymaking on Hackney Marshes. He was of drunken habits, and had once bten in custody for ill- treating, his wife, who went about selling small parcels of greengrocery. On Friday night week he came home after expending the wages he bad earned during the day. On the following morning ( Saturday), after taking his breakfast, he demanded Is 6d, which he seemed to have learned that his wife had about her. She refused to give it him, having to purchase her small stock of greengrocery. He then muttered some abusive language against her; and a married daughter, Mrs Wills, who was living in the same house with them, stated that he vowed he would " do for " his wife if she did not comply with his wish. The daughter did not think very seriously about his threat, as he was often in the habit of doing so, and left about half- past eight for the purpose of buying a few articles. She returned at half- past nine, aud on going up to her mother's bedroom she was horror- stricken at finding her parent lying on the floor in a pool of blood. The old woman's head had been frightfully battered in in several places, aud a portion of the brain protruded through one of the wounds. She immediately gave the alarm, and the neighbours aud police came to her aid. The woman was still breathing, although quite insensible. The murderer was nowhere to be found; he had left the house ; and the neigh- bours stated that they saw him leave the piaoe in rather a hurried manner, and proceed towards Temple Mills, in a different direction to that of the place where he was appre- hended. The deceased's dress showed that she had had a severe struggle, and her pocket, containing the Is 6d and some dupli- cates, was torn out. On search being made for the weapon which had been used by the prisoner, the daughter found in a cupboard in the room a heavy iron billhook, or chopper, the edge of which was covered with blood, with portions of the old woman's hair adhering to it. Dr Vallance, surgeon, of Stratford, was promptly in attendance, and ou examining the deceased no less than seventeen cuts were found about her head and body. It was thought that the prisoner had at first struck at her head with the billhook, and haviug succeeded in rendering her iusen- sible, which would account for no screams beiu*< heard by the neighbours, he cut at her iu his frenzy in all directions. She was removed to the uuion, and notwithstanding her frightful injuries she lived till the following morning, although quite un- conscious. The prisoner was secured in the Ilford- road, a short distance beyond Stratford, and immediately apprehended. His clothes were wet, and he stated that he had fallen into a ditoh. He was conveyed to the West Ham police station, and on being informed by Sergeant Walker, 18 K, of the serious charge against him, and cautioned in the usual terms, he replied, dropping his head in an indifferent manner, " It is a bad job ; 1 have done it, and I was coming to the station to give myself up." He fur- ther added that he had taken the Is 6d iu the deceased's pocket, and that he had burned the pawnbroker's duplicates. The magistrates theu remanded him to Ilford Gaol to await the result of a coroner's inquest. The coroner's jury has since returned a verdict of Wilful Murder. THE LAUNCH OP THE STEAM- PACKET PRINCE FREDERICK WILLIAM.— This steam- packet, destined for the mail serviee between Dover, Calais, and Ostend, was launched at Blackwall on Wednesday. The following are her piincipal dimensions:— Length 165 feet, breadth 20 feet, depth 11 feet 3 inches, tonnage 3254, She is to receive engines of 120 horse- power ( nominal), by Ravenhiil, Salkeld, and Co, fitted with all the latest improve- ments, and will be of such light draught of water as to enable her to get into the tidal harbours of Calais and Ostend at most times of the tide. Built of iron, with the utmost possible care, she has four water- tight compartments; she has iron beams throughout, on the cabin- decks as well as ou the main deck. The Prince Frederick William of Prussia is the first vessel built by the Thames Ironworks and Shipbuilding Company ( late Mare and Co, Orchard Wharf, Blackwali), of which Mr Poter Roll is the chairman, and Messrs Maudslay and Mr Dyke, of well- known engineering firms, Mr Kelk, the eminent builder, and Capt Ford, late manager and superintendent of the General Screw Company's ships, are the business directors. After the launch an elegaut entertainment was givtm at the Brunswick Hotel, at which Mr Rolt, the chairman of the company, pre- sided, when the usual loyal toasts, aud that of the distinguished individual whose title aud position have given name to the naw steam- packet, were drunk with the greatest enthusiasm. " Suc- cess to Mr Churchward, the contractor," was also proposed and drunk with eclat; aud " Prosperity to Mr Rolt and the Thames Iron Shipping Company', was entertained with the most excel- lent spirit. THE MURDER OP ME LITTLE.— On Wednesday morning: two men, named Spollin, father and son, in the employ of the Mid- land Great Western Railway Company of Ireland, the one as a painter, and the other in the locomotive department, were arrested in Dublin on suspicion of having committed the murder of Mr Little, which caused so much sensation a few mouths ago, and has since remained a m. vstery. During the previous inquiries no suspicion attached to the Spollins. and the directors of the railway were astonished to learn that they had been ar- rested by the police. The house oi the elder Spollin has been searched by detectives, aud the stolen notes and gold have been found. The wife of Spolliu states that the £ 43, which, it will be remembered, were found in a cistern soou after the murder, were placed there by her husband, who had murdered Mr Little, It was upap his wife's information that Spollin was arrested. MADAME TUSSAUD'S EXHIBITION.— His Imperial Highness the Archduke Maximilian of Austria, attended by Lord Charles Fitzroy and suite, honoured the exhibition of Madame Tussaud , with a" visit on Saturday week. His imperial highness expressed I much gratification at the varied aud splendid contents of this I popular exhibition, DISTRIBUTION OF THE VICTORIA CROSS. The inauguration of the Order of Valour took place on Friday forenoon, in Hyde Park, under circumstances to which scarcely , anything was required to give additional eclat. The august lady i with whose name and reign the new order is so felicitously asso- j ciatM, affixed the cross ner own hands to the breasts of the brave men who had so nobly earned it. She was surrounded by nearly every member of the royal family of England; at- tended by her great officers of state, aud by nearly 6,000 of her troops, comprising the most picturesque in appearance and the most useful and gallant in action of her forces; about their royal mistress were gathered crowds of the British public, fashion- able aud unfashionable; and, to crown all, the weather was as favourable as could be desired, it being a fina June day, with just a breath of wind stirring to disturb the warm serenity of the atmosphere. — TTm < » 0 vm Her Majesty, mounted on a fine charger, rode between Prince Albert and Prince Frederick William of Prussia. She wore a round hat, not turned up at the side, with a gold band round it, and a red and white feather at the right side. A scarlet body made nearly like a military tunic,, but open some way down from the throat, a gold- embroidered sash over the left shoulder, and a dark blue skirt completed the costume of the Queen, who, like all the members of the royal party in military costume, wore crape round the left arm. Everything was arranged in a most perfect manner, and the distribution took place very soon after the Queen arrived on the ground. As each approached, her Majesty received the decoration from Lord Panmure; and, stooping from her saddle, fixed it on the breast of tke decorated, who passed on, and formed again in line, behind her Majesty. There was nothing very dare- devil in their countenances or de- meanour, but they all looked very proud, or perhaps one should rather say very happy, as they saluted her Majesty and walked on, bearing on their breasts the proudest decoration which a British subject can receive, and beside which stars aud garters arc mere gingerbread. The saiiirs gave you an idea that they might really be the " Bellerophou lambs" and Agamemnon doves" they once described themselves; but under their calm quiet coun- tenances it was not difficultfto guess there was within the spirit of an animal braver as well as nobler than the lion. In the army the recipients were decorated in the order of their regiments and irrespective of military rauk. Nearly all were in uniform, but some five or six who have lately left the army, appeared in non- military costume. Mr Dunn, late of the 11th Hussars, wore the uniform of his old regiment, but of the non- commissioned officers and privates one or two were clothed in civilian garments; one was dressed as an enrolled pensioner; a fine looking fellow with a true Crimean beard appeared in the green dress of a park- keeper, and oue was in the uniform of a policeman. He is the first member of the respectable force to which he belongs who has made the uniform a subject of admiration and envy in circles far above those domestic regions where the baton and the blue usually find warm admirers. The following are the names of those to whom her Majesty gave the Victoria cross. They came up in the order shown, whioh contains the name of every man present:— ROYAL NAVY ( INCLUDING THE NAVAL BRIGADB EMPLOYED ON SHORE).— 1. Commander Henry James Raby; 2,; Commander John Bythesea ( Baltic); 3. Commander Hugh Talbot Bur- goyne; 4. Lieutenant Charles Davis Lucas ( Baltic); 5. Lieu- tenaut William Nathan Wright Hewett; 6.

( late), Sergeant George Walters; 37. 49th Regiment, Corporal James Owens; 38. 97th Regiment, Brevet- Major C. H. Lumley; 39. 97th Regiment, Sergeant Johii Coleman; 40. Rifie Brigade, 1st Batt, Brevet- Major Hon Henry H. Clifford ; 41. Rifle Brigade, 1st Batt, Private Francis Wheat- ley ; 42. Rifle Brigade, 2d Batt, Captain William J. Cunning- hame; 43.

Rifle Brigade, 2d Batt, Private Joseph Bradshaw; 47. Rifle Brigade, 3d Batt, Brevet- Major C. T. Bourchier— total, 48. After the presentation of the Cross had been completed, the decorated officers and men passed over to a point some fifty or sixty yards opposite her Majesty, and the troops proceeded to march past between the royal party and the wearers of the Cross. They first passed in slow time, the cavalry and artillery at a walk, and the infantry at a slow step. All the troops on the ground were under the command of Sir Colin Campbell, in- spector- general of infantry. The remaining number of officers and men of both services upon whom her Majesty has been graciously pleased to signify her intention to confer the decoration of the Victoria Cross, were uuable to receive the same from her Majesty's hands on the present occasion, iu consequence of their absence from this country on her Majesty's service ; and her Majesty has accord- ingly been pleased to command that they shall receive the same in her Majesty's name, at the earliest fitting opportunity, from the hands of the senior naval or military officer serving at the particular station abroad where they may happen to be employed, We have before described the appearance of the Cross, which is very pretty and appropriate. It was designed by Mr C. F. Han- cock, of Bruton- street, and met with the warm approval of her Majesty. ___________________ BETTING- HOUSES IN THE CITY. The neighbourhood of the Mansion House was, during a great part of Wednesday, in a state of unusual excitement, in con- sequence of the apprehension of a number of persons by the police, upou warrants under the act for the suppression of betting- houses. The police had some days ago received instruc- tions upon the subject, and opportunities of entering suspected houses were taken at the exact time when parties were engaged in making their books for the forthcoming races. At a little before three o'clock, several officers brought before Alderman Wire a room full of prisouers, to answer for offences charged under the act. Robert Collyer, John Yickary, Arthur Agat, and Edward Woodhead were the first persons charged.— In- spector Howard said: The defendants were taken into custody by me and my assistants upon this warrant. About twelve o'clock | to- day I went to the Queen's Arms, in Bishopsgate- street, and in the parlour on the ground floor I found the four defendants. — Collyer was pointed out to me as Vickary, but he said his name was Collyer. I was then told which was Vickary. I produced my warrant. On Collyer I found £ 25 7s 6d. He said he had nothing else about him but a handkerchief, but I found upon him a betting- book and several papers re- lating to horse races, and a card relating to races.— Baker ( 635): I accompanied the inspector, and found the four defendants there. I searched Viekary, and found upon him £ S6 15s Id. Upon the two other defendants were found some papers relating to betting transactions.— J. Butt, house agent, said: On Wednesday the 10th inst 1 went, about two o'clock in the afternoon, to the King's Arms, in Bishops- gate- street, and in the parlour on the ground floor I saw four or five persons, amongst whom was Collyer, who represented himself to me as Vickary. He laid me £ 4 to 10s against Flacrow, on a race to come off at Ascot. I gave him a sovereign, and he gave me four half- crowns in exchange. He told me his name was Vickary, and he asked me my name, to enter the bet. I gave him the name of Butler. The card of the race was lying on the table. Ho made an entry in his book. I had been to the same place a week or ten days previonsly, and I saw Collyer and others there, and I saw him lay a bet of £ 20 to £ 4 upon a horse, and the person made another bet with him, and paid him money on both bets. I have been on two or three oc- casions there, and saw Collyer on each occasion,— Cross- ex- amined by Mr Buchanan : I have been accustomed to betting. I asked Collyer what he was laying against a certain horse ; and he said8to 1, andlsaid I would take ittohalf- a- sovereign.— Johnson, 134, gave confirmatory evidence as to frequent betting transactions by Collyer.— Mr Buchanan submitted that the evi- dence was not sufficiently strong against Collyer, as to the alleged fact of the betting, to authorise a conviction.— Alderman Wire : There have been five distinct cases proved against Collyer, who has been a common frequenter of the place, for the purposes charged iu the warrant. I do not consider the cases proved sufficiently against the other three, and I shall discharge them, with a marked caution as to their future visits to places of tke kind. With respect to Collyer, my brother magistrates and I have come to tha determination to inflict heavy penalties in all cases of the kind. We have observed the dangerous effect pro- duced by persons who encourage that sort of gambling, that nu- merous robberies have sprung from the encouragement given to young persons to appropriate the money of their employers to bet- ting purposes, and that the prac ticeiucreases in the city of London. We shau try our strength and activity in checking so pernicious a vice, and I begin with Collyer, by fining him £ 25 and costs,— The next batch of defendants brought before the magistrate consisted of Edward Thoaaas, H. Jones, H. Jacobs, R. Robin- son, W. King, R. Stile, and T. Newcombe.— Inspector Shelford, assisted by his men, took the defendants into custody in the Punch Tavern, 99, Fleet- street. Newcombe, it was proved, was the person who took the bets. He had about him between £ 300 and £ 400 in cash and checks, and several betting papers were f mnd in his possession. He said he was in the habit of betting as gentlemen betted at Tattersail's, and he took the same odds. — Alderman Wire fined Newcombe £ 25 aud costs, and dis- charged the other defendants of the batch, after an admonition. — The third batch consisted of Henry Osmond ( alias Harris), R. Noon, W. Andrew, J. Taplin, J. Burrell, and T. Boweu.— In- spector Scott, aided by his men, took the defendants into cus- tody en the second floor of a beer- shop, at No. 10, Talbot- courfc. Osmond was the principal character, and he had in his posses- sion between £ 50 and £ 60, and several papers relating to races. — The alderman fined Osmoud £ 25 and costs, and discharged the other defendants.— The cases were not ooncluded till near nine o'clock. THE DRAMA. HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE,— On Tuesday nisrht MADAME forbTheS^^ th^ haraCtt'r of £ miua hi La Sormambula^' of K. iLfvtlme. seasen- Her exquisite interpretation of Belheis music m this ever- popular part is too fresh in tha rnemo? y Of ail patrons of the lyrical d « - 2aia to need comment ou this occasion. The manner in which she executes " Ahnon grange" remains as a marvel of perfect vocalisation that can never be exoelled. The fine quality of her voice, and. the profu « swn of ornaments, which are varied on the repetition of the air. left the audience in a state of enthusiasm as the curtain de- soended. Calls resounded from every side, bouquets were libe- rally thrown, and the opinion universally expressed was to the effect that this admirable display of the singer's art could not ba surpassed. Frequent repetition may have rendered " La Son- naaabula less attractive than in earlier days, but the execut ion of this one aria by Madame Alboni fully repays any amount of attention bestowed on the entire work. The part of Elvino was sustained by Siguor Belart, an artist altogether uew to the public. His voice is not very powerful, but it is nevertheless of a pleasing quality, and his style is unexceptionable. Moreover, he enters thoroughly into the feeling of the not very thankful character, and can exhibit the distress of Elviao in a manner to ensure general sympathy. The air in the third act, on which his importance greatly depends, was encored with every sign of spontaneous approbation, and there is no doubt that he has made a favourable impression. Count Rodolfo was carefully and un- obtrusively represented by Signer Corsi. PRINCESS'S THEATEE.— The production of the " Tempest" ia unavoidably postponed till Wednesday next ( the 30th iust), and Richard II." will be played for the last time on Monday. MR BENEDICT'S CONCEKTS.— A crowded and brilliant audienea assembled la Her Majesty's Theatre on Wednesday afternoon, at the second of Mr Benedict's series of three concerts, which, considering the unusual variety of attractions comprised in the programmes, have a just right to the denomination of " grand." The selection on the present occasion called into request tha talents of the whole of Mr Liftnlcy's company, whose perform- ances were still more welcome than before, since they were not limited to hacknied songs, duets, & c, in the popular operas of the hour. A chain of pieces from Gluck's unjustiv neglected . Orreo, for example, m which the part of Orieo was sustained by Albom, excited the utmost interest aud afforded unqualified gratification. This great singer, in the scene ( with chorus) Chi mai dell Erebo," aud the more familiar recitative and air, Che fare* senza Euridice ?" displayed her powers to signal ad- vantage, shining as much in the first by her forcible declama- tion as in the last by the unrivalled quality of her voice and her admirable vocal expression. The melodious chorus, " Vienni a Regni del Riposo" was also given. The music of Gluck is now too rarely heard; managers will not venture to revive it at our lyrical theatres, aud the ouly chance of hearing it is in the concert room. Such genial and beautiful inspirations, however, are not destined for oblivion; and every lover of music must ba grateful to Mr Benedict for the opportunity of listening to some fragments thus well performed, whioh only created an ardent desire for more. Mr Benedict was again ultra- modest, presenting his patrons with only three specimens of his composition— the overture to the Minnesinger," which was played with great vigour and precision by the band ; the elegant ballad, " ' Tis sad thus to fall from the opera of " Ijhe Gipsy's Warning," sung in a chaste and unaffected style by Mr Charles Braham; and tha serenade of students ( for chorus) from the same opera. As a periormer Mr Benedict appeared once, selecting for display the duet of Moscheles for two pianofortes, entitled, " Mommage a, Handel, ' in which he was supported by Mr Lindsay Sloper. ihe execution was masterly on both hands. There were also a slow movement for two violoncellos, composed by Signor Piatti, and played to perfection by that eminent artist in conjunction with Siguor Pease ( principal violoncellist in the baud of Her Majesty's Theatre), a performer of unquestionable merit; two movements from a violin concerto of Signor Bazzini, rather fantastically written and very fantastically executed by the com- poser; the familiar " Carnival de Venise" of Signor Bottesini, whose wonderful command of the double- bass might have been exhibited in music of a less exclusively grotesque character; and, last and best, Mendelssohn's superb concerto in G minor ( entire) for pianoforte and orchestra— a composition which tha ofteuer it is heard the greater delight it must confer, more espe- cially when performed so magnificently as on the present occa- sion by Miss Arabella Goddard, who obtained and deserved— her classical taste no less thaii her faultless expression and execution considered— flattering demonstrations of approval from all parts of the house, and one of the most genuine artistic successes of the morning, Mr Benedict presided iu the orchestra with his accustomed ability, and was ably seconded by Signor Bonetti, who directed the Italian operatic pieces. The audience seemed enchanted with the concert from beginning to end. MADAME RISTOEI.— Oa Wednesday this eminent actress played Bianca in Dr Milman's tragedy of " Fazio," which has been trauslated into Italian. It was first played at Coveat Garden in 1816, Miss O'Neill playing the heroine. Fazio is a poor and enthusiastic dreamer, whose life is divided between admiration of his wife Biauca and researches for the philoso- pher's stone. One night while engaged at his laboratory a cry for help is heard, and, on the door beiug opened, an olu miser resident in the neighbourhood ( Bartoldo by name) staggers in, narrates the history of his attack by robbers, and finally dies at Fasio's feet. The temptation is too strong. Fazio buries the old man's body in his garden, takes his keys, aud possesses him- self of his treasures. Once become a great lord, Lis passion revives for a certain Marchese Aldabella, whom he had courted previous to his marriage, but who had slighted him oil account of his poverty. She now, however, is too ready to receive him. Bianca is forgotten, and the love of Fazio and Aldabella is renewed. Mad with jealousy, Biawca hastens to the ducal council, then sitting in deliberation as to Bartoldo's myste- rious disappearance, and denounces Fazio as his murderer. Fazio is arrested, condemned to die, and, notwithstanding the strenuous exertions of his bitterly repenting wife, finally executed. Aldabella's guilty intercourse with Fazio is repre- sented to the duke, and she is condemned to a nuu's life, while Bianca dies of grief and shame. From this slight sketch it will be seen that the part of Bianca offers full scope for the delicate light and shade of Madame Ristori's acting ; and but seldom have we seen her to greater advantage. As her greatest points we would instance her wild burst of revengeful rage when the thought dawns across her that by betraying him to the council she can wrest Fazio from Aldabella's arms, her wakening to reason to find her husband has been led out to death, aud her feeble, impotent attempts to support her tottering frame, and her assumption of prophet- like denunciation when the duke pronounces sentence upon her rival Aldabella. All these phases were admirably rendered, and vociferously applauded. There were, however, a thousand minor touches, soft and scarcely per- ceptible cadences of voice, and perfect bits of pantomime and by- play, which were rewarded by those deep chest notes, those buzzed " Ahs," which in an audience, and specially in a semi- foreign audience, are frequently the best tests of popular appre- ciation. Madame Ristori was called before the curtain several times during the piece, and twice at its termination. She was ably supported by the Italian company, aud the stage arrange- ments were liberal and effective. ME ALDEIDGE IN STOCKHOLM.— The Stockholm Aftonblad of the 5th inst gives an account of the first appearance, in the Theatre Royal of that capital, of Mr Ira Aldridge, the African, tragedian, in the character of Othello, his part being performed in English aud the other parts in Swedish. The following is an extract from that journal" The distinguished foreigu artiste ably displayed in his finely varied performance the different passions and. sentiments to which Othello abandons himself— from unaffected tenderness and open and generous confidence to all the tortures of jealousy and the demoniacal fury of revenge— the transitions being made, from time to time, with all that lightning rapidity so natural to the inhabitants of southern climes." The Crown Prince, the Crown Princess, and Prince Augustus, honoured the performance with their presence, and the whole performance was highly creditable. The pricss of admission were doubled on each night of Mr Aldridge's perform- BIETHS AND DEATHS IN LONDON.— The deaths registered in London, which in the previous week were 934, in the week that ended on Saturday ( June 20th) were 987, a number less by 76 thau would have ocourred if the average rate of mortality had prevailed. The births registered last year exhibit an excess of 540 over the deaths returned in the same period. The deaths referred to the zvmotic class of diseases were in the previous week 164 ; last week they were 197. The increase arises chiefly from diarrhoea, which in the last four weeks was fatal in 17, 26, 20, and 35 cases. Two- thirds of the 35 cases occurred to infants. No death is recorded in the week as caused by " English cholera," or any other description of the disease. Two children, aged six and seven, died of chicken- pox in Islington. Two cases ofsmall- pox were fatal, one in Poplar and one in Marylebotie. Both measles and diarrhoea numbered more deaths in the east districts thau in the other parts of the metropolis, the former complaint appearing to be chiefly in the Sboreditch district, in Bethnal Green and Limehouse. Last week the births of 764 boys and 763 Rirls, in a'sll, 527 children, were registered in London. In the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1847- 56 the average number was 1,465. MELANCHOLY OCCURRENCE AT ALSWICK.— The coroner for North Northumberland held an inquest at Alnwick on Tuesday upon the bodies of Ra: ph Shepherd, aged 25, and Francis Russell, aged 21, who were drowned in the river Aln, opposite the Castle, on Sunday morning, under very melancholy circum stances. It appears that they bad gone into a field knowjr^ g the Pastures, and had stripped to bathe in a dam. Some r^ jy had been made, which caused the water to be oonsi^ itll ^ deeper. Into this part of the river they had pluti^' ^ eGr, er companion named George Adamson. The river sinking than they bad calculated, Russell was soon seen jie when Shepherd made to his assistance, cryingintjles, me not see his companion perish.

DAMAGES AGAINST A RAILWAY COMPANY.— In the Queen's Bench, on Thursday, an action was brought by a Mr Steadmau against the Eastern Counties Railway Company to recover damages for negligence. It appeared from the evidence of tha plaintiff that he is au engineer, residing at Leyton, where his wife and daughter keep a school; he was 51 years of age. On the 21st of November last he took a second- class ticket at the Lea Bridge station to proceed to London. Between Stratford and London the train started off the main line and ran into a goods train that had been shuuted on to a siding; he was thrown forward and his ehest came across a partition; he was then knocked back and completely stunned. He was taken to the house of Mr Hancoru, the company's surgeon, and examined. It was found that no bones were broken. He drove home the same afternoon, but was obliged to go to bed immediately, aud was completely laid up for three months, and then went to Brighton for some months. He could not now stand without crutches, neither could he . sit upright long, and suffered great pain.— Cross- examined : His general health had been very good up to the time of the accident; he had brought au action against the Midland Company for an accident in 1852. He had been insol- vent in 1852, and went to Australia, where he made some money. He had been tried for perjury, but acquitted. The learned counsel for the defendant was proceeding to cross- examine the plaintiff at some length as to his previous history, when Lord Campbell interposed, and said it was an unprecedented course of proceeding.— The medical men who attended the plaintiff were examined as to the amount of his injuries. Some communication then took place between the counsel, and it was announced that the parties had agreed to a verdict. Verdict for plaintiff. Damages— £ 669. THE CONVICT MANSELL AGAIN.— The case of this conviot, under sentence of death for the murder of a comrade, came on for argument in the Exchequer Chamber on Tuesday. It will be remembered that judgment was respited for the purpose of taking the opinioa of a superior court upou several points raised by the convict's counsel ( Mr F. Russell) with respect to the con- stitution of the jury. These points were fully argued before the Court of Queen's Bench, and were overruled. Error was then assigned to this court, and the arguments were reiterated to show that the j udgmeut of the Queen's Bench andgthe court below ought to be reversed upon these grounds :— 1. That the record did not show sufficient ground why 15 men should be ordered to stand by. 2. That the court had no power to order a juror to stand by, such an order being unknown to the law, and vague, indefinite, and uncertain. 3, That tha panel had been Kone through once; there was a default ot jurymen; the panel was commenced to be gone through a second time; aud William Ironmonger ought not to have been ordered to stand by; that he ought to have been sworn, unless the Crown had shown cause. 4. That jurors ought not to have been called out of order at the nomination of the Crown, 5. That conscientious scruples against capital punishment was no ground why David Phillput should have been ordered to stand by, and the court had no jurisdiction to order Phil I pot to stand by, as he had not been tried by triers, and found not to be indifferent. 6. That tho matters did not warrant the judgment, aud judgment should have b;' en for the plaintiff in error and not for the Crown. The assignment of errors was substantially the same as in the court below, the main objection beiug that jurors had been improperly set aside at the request of the Crown, without cause being sbovvu. The argument of the case occupied the court for the best part of two days, and at the conclusion, the judgment'of the court below was confirmed. The execution will, it is supposed, take place when the time of respite shall have expired. Two MEN KILLED BY LIGHTNING.— In the past week the atmosphere in Berkshire was greatly charged with electricity, aud on the afternoon of Tuesday an awful thuuder- scorm oc- curred in the neighbourhood of Inkpen, which is situated a few miles only from the town of Hungerford, in Berkshire. Three men, named Martin, Buxey, and Palmer, were employed in mowing the grass on the lawn of Kivby House, the resilience of Mr J. Butler, on Tuesday afternoon, and when a storm of thunder and lightning broke over the place one of them sug- gested that they should run beneath a tree, Martin, knowing that trees generally attracted Jifhtmng, immediately remarked, " We had better go anywher- than under a tree." Buxey and Palmer, however, as the fsvr ™ was severe, and the hail was fall- ing heavily at the timfr? u find seated themselves beneath a large lime tree, but i beneath the « « » « , eiecintuuia navmg urst struck the tinner * ir", • le tree » then descended it, and laid urostrate the two ;' en wli0 were sitting there. The clothes of Buxey were four ''.°. oe., on . e', The melancholy event has excited painful j^ rest in the neishbourhooii, especially as one of them has left • widow and live children wholly unprovided for. An inquest nas been held on the bodies, ami the jury returned a verdict in accordance with the facts adduced. Tne hair ot Palmer, when bis body was removed, M as observed to have been much scorchod. IR0?^^ 0^ 0^ 011 NEGLECT.— There is, perhaps, no part of the body that ought to be more interesting to us than the teeth, and yet there is also none which is more generally neglected, were a little ordinary attention devoted to these organs, we should no longer find toothache and otner diseases of the mouth so prevalent; nor would our senses be affected by offensive breath, and similar disagreeable concomitants. Art, however is here necessary to assist nature; and in such cases it is that a preparation like Rowlands' Odonto becomes peculiarly advan- tageous as an infallible preservative of those indispensable attri- « ites of beauty, the teeth and gums, ia balmy fragrance, fresh- aws, and beauty. 4 BELL'S LIFE IN LONDON, JUNE 21, 1857. [ TOWN EDITION.] TIE TURF, BITTING- AT TATTERSALL'S. MONDAY, JUNE 22.— The Northumberland Plate was the chief event speculated upon this afternoon, and for it Skir- misher and Mongrel were in strong demand, one bet of 500 to 400, several of 100 to 86, and finally 6 to 5 to about £ 200 being taken about the former; whilst Mongrel, on the strength of a con- siderable outlay, left off with the call of Underhand, against whom 5 to 1, though taken at the commencement, was offered currently at the close of the Boom. Martinet and Rosati were a good deal inquired after for the Goodwood Stakes, but awaiting the acceptances, bookmakers seemed anything but anxious to lay. £ 100 even was betted on Arsenal, Gemma di Vergy, Anton, Mongrel, and Dulcamara against the field for the Cup. For the St Leger 3 to 1 was offered against Ignoramus, and half a point more against the mare; a hundred even was laid on the two and Adamas against the field. 2,500 to 25 was taken about Roger- thorpe winning the Liverpool Cup, Arsenal the Goodwood Cup, and Ignoramus the St Leger.

THE EAST RIDING HANDICAP AT BEVERLEY.— This disputed race between Logie o' Buchau and De Ginkel was intended to have been brought before the stewards of Beverley Races during the Newcastle Meeting, but neither Lord Londesborough nor Mr Rudstoa Read being present, the objection was withdrawn, and the owner of Logie o' Buchan receives the stakes.

THE RAGING IN THE NORTH AND SOUTH.— THE C ARLISLE, CHELMS- FORD, & WORCESTER MEETINGS. TO THE EDITOR OP BELL'S LIFE IN LONDON. SIR : The return lists from Newcastle- upon- Tyne, although they have on previous occasions contained a better array of names to the various stakes, nevertheless, evince a patronage of the meeting which the executive is certain to encourage; and those stalwart denizens of the pit, who emerged from the bowels of the earth for their annual holiday could hardly com- plain of " short commons." But for the unfortunate contre- temp in the Members' Plate, which, however, in no way affected thufiat of the judge in the second innings, all would have gone " merry as a marriage bell;" and Courtenay, whom I selected for your readers, showed how useful his own instruc- tion of Blink Bonny had been. The Northumberland Plate, although the field was the smallest that ever started for it, and which may be attributable to the prestige of Skirmisher, furnished a splendid contest between the trio to whom I imagined the race was confined, who were separated from the others so far that, as in the Oaks, the judge was enabled to place the lot. To the slowness of the pace in the early portion of the race the de- feat of Skirmisher has been attributed; but it seems to be for- gotten that the frequent calls that have been made upon him must have told a tale on a course which was literally as " hard as bricks." Stin the " spots" were not disgraced, although lowered, and now it is to be supposed that the wearer of them will for a time etjoy that rest of which he must be in need. The other racing, which appears te have been good of its kind, merely showed that Irnperieuse has kept her form, while that of Sneeze had deteriorated some ten per cent; and from the figure which the Sprig of Shillelagh cut iu both his races it is clear that the market operations against him for the Derby were not carried on without sufficient cause. The Bibury and Stockbridge Meetings will no doubt be so fully dealt with in your descriptive report that I shall not venture to tread upon ground so well occupied, and therefore shall only remark that their success was as ample as their promoters could have expected; whilst the presence of Ignoramus and Star of the East attests the cordial relations which had been established between the great stables of the North and the South, which, it is to be hoped, for the interests of the Turf, will never be disturbed. Carlisle, Chelmsford, aud Worcester are the fixtures for the ensuing week; and as Carlisle, from the isolated nature of its locale, is almost entirely confined to the northern stables, there is not likely to be any interference to clash with the success of either Mr Merry's revival in Essex, or the spirited sports on the Pitchcroft of Worcester. The programme of Mr Daly, to whom for many years the man- agement of the Carlisle Meeting has been entrusted, and who has introduced many judicious improvements in it, I must dis- miss with a few remarks on the Cumberland Plate, the principal race of the meeting. The handicap for this event has been well received, as it has produced twenty- three acceptances, and with the recent run- ning of Wednesday for my guide, I ^ cannot fail to observe that the contest rests between Underhand, El Hakim, and Norton. Chelmsford, since Mr Merry has taken it in hand, has ex- hibited far more symptoms of liveliness than it did under the old rSgime; and by the spirited exertions of the owner of Mark's Hall it has become an agreeable addition to the Home Circuit, fairly entitled to the patronage which the London Ring now accords it. The Chelmsford Handicap, the chief race on the first day, started with forty- four nominations, but the haudicapper's usual good luck in obtaining acceptances appears to have de. serted him, as only sixteen have stood. Triton and Daley's representative will be the most dangerous. The Brentwood Stakes has ten two year olds entered. If Vola- tore starts, he ought to be about winning, and to him and Miss Waters I shall leave the race. In the Welter Cup the weighting of Mr Merry has been more successful, as only a pair out of the fourteen subscriptions have been scratched. The winner, I think, will be Turk. The Members' Plate I must decline to meddle with. On Wednesday we have the Cup Stakes, to which sixteen names are attached, and as there is not metal enough about it to attract Dulcamara from Woodyeates, I must stand upon Firma- ment and Naughty Boy. The Mark's Hall Stakes and the other handicaps contain such a repetition of the same names that I must be excused from offering an opinion about them. Worcester has within the last two years made prodigious strides in public favour, and now Mr Webb holds such a respon- sible position in the administration of affairs, I anticipate witnessing further progress in the good cause. The bill of fare before me contains a list of eleven races, five of which are appointed for Thursday, and the remainder for Friday ; and as Worcester is so easily accessible per rail there can be no doubt that the fields will be equal to the occasian, especially as it this year steers clear of the July Meeting. The Trial Handicap commences proceedings. There are ten subseribers to it, and I am disposed to award the leading posi- tions to Elfrida and Miss Harkaway. The Two Year Old Stakes has been but poorly patronised in point of numbers, but in quality the names have never been surpassed, Mainstay, Princess Royal, and Polly Peachum, each of whom has a penalty, being amongst the entries. The win" ner, I believe, will come from Mr Saxon's stable. The Worcestershire Stakes has met with a large acceptance, including Black Tommy, Arsenal, and Leamington, all names of a different stamp to what are generally seen in country han- dicaps. Black Tommy, after being struck out before the de- claration of his weight for the Hunt Cup, is not likely to give the haudicappers a second chance of taking his measure before the October events. Arsenal has enough work cut out for him at Goodwood to keep hitn in Sussex, and Leamington is virtually scratched by his Ascot running. Cotswold, although his stable is always formidable here, won't like the length, aud The Jesuit is a rogue. The other top weights are all go stale, that I must look to the " light infantry" for the winner instead of to the " heavy cavalry," and my representatives must be Oakball, and Lima, taking Rotterdam for a cockbaat. Friday commences with the City Plate, to which there are twenty- nine nominations, Lord Clifden's lot, Elfrida and Miss Harkaway, appearing to be most dangerous. The Flying Stakes has ever been a popular stake here, and I perceive New Brighton who has been successful in it on two occasions last year, now figures at the top of the tree. That he will throw in a third main I think very improbable, and I must select Cumberland, Old Tom, and Polly Johnson to produce the winner.— Yours, & c, OBSERVER. RACING FIXTURES FOR 1857. JUNE.

ARNOLD.— A gentleman at Wrexham has sent us the following particulars of the detection of this im- postor :—" Mr Editor: Many thanks for the caution you gave in your last impression respecting an impostor who has been ' operating' upon the benevolent iu the name of Josh, Arnold. On Monday evening last the pretended Josh. Arnold was intro- duced to me, and with much semblance of truth he gave his story, namely, that he had been abroad to Egypt, India, and China, with some horses; that during his sojourn there he had been seriously injured by a fall, which had incapacitated him from riding, and was therefore obliged to return to his home at Middleham ; that he had landed at Holyhead, en route from Dublin, and was very ' hard up.' I found that he had been practising upon several gentlemen in this town, previously to his trying the dodge with me, and had been very successful. He had obtained some money from Mr John Taylor, of the Swan Inn ( a real sportsman, and a man who is always ready to assist a fellow- creature in distress), and also from several other bene- volent gentlemen. In the meantime, happening to observe your caution, I laid a plant for the ' operator,' He was introduced into a company at the Swan— told his tale very plausibly, and was questioned by the superintendent of police ( who was invited to attend) whether he was the real man or not. His answers not being at all satisfactory, and his bearing and de- vour very objectionable, he was invited to lodge in the Swell at Wrexham for a little time. The next morning lie until YK? before one of the county magistrates, and remanded ^ -' ay ( Thursday), when, on his case being heard, he and begged^ ^ is whole statement was a tissue of falsehood, nerhaos mayW8^ f° r mercy.

Judge and Clerk of the Scales: Mr Manning. Starter: Mr. E. Hibburd. The clashing of the Hampshire meetings with Newcastle is one of those unavoidable contretemps for the occurrence of which there is no help m the present over- crowded state of the racing almanac; but although the Northumberland Plate is justly recognised as one of the principal handicaps of the year, it is questionable if the success of the northern gathering is at all interfered with by the southern reunions, owing to the immense distance which separates the two localities. The prestige of the Hampshire meetings was fully maintained on the present occasion as far as company was concerned, an si the Club could boast of a better day's sport than usual; whilst its twia brother of Stockbridge exhibited a slight falling- off in the latter, owing chiefly we suspect to the hard state of the ground interfering with the preparation of horses generally throughout the country. In point of weather, however, nothing could ex- ceed the brilliancy of tlsat with which we have been favoured during the past week, summer having set iu with all its glory with the new moon, to the incalculable benefit of the country in general, as testified by the favourable appearance of the crops not only throughout Hampshire but ( judging from the reports that have reached us) in other agricultural districts. The Bibury meeting was inaugurated as usual with the Club dinner at the Star Hotel, Andover, on Tuesday, when, in the absence of Lord Clifden, the chair was occupied by Ralph Etwall, Esq, under whose presidency the evening was spent with the usual bonhommie for which the Club has so long been celebrated. Several new riding members were elected the day previous in town, but owing to the engagements of others at Hurstbourne and Stoskbridge, where large parties of fashion- ables were assembled, tho muster at dinner fell somewhat below the average. This remark, however, will not apply to the atten- dance on the course on Wednesday, which was one of the best ever seen on the Club day, the balcony of the Stand being crowded with ladies, whilst in the inclosure were most of the leading patrons of the Turf and the principal book- makers. No rain having fallen at Danebury for two months, it was only natural to suppose that the ground would be hard, especially at this season of the year, but it was not so, except here and there between the mile post and the lower turn, where the " cover" was less thick than in other parts. We last year described the improvements at the Stand, and in again referring to their completeness have only to notice the desirable alteration iu the position of the telegraph, whereby the occupants of the Stand and inclosure are now enabled to distin- guish the names of the jockeys without difficulty. The proceed- ings passed off with that indescribable charm which invariably distinguishes the meetings of the Bibury Club, the absence of the mob, and the attendant turmoil of an over- crowded inclo- sure being a most delightful relief alter the awful din and coil- fusion of Ascot and Hampton. The heat was intense, and the consequent run upon " claret cup" at the Club marquee', kept Mr Woolf and his attendants busily employed in the " brewing" of that refreshing and delicious beverage. The card embraced seven items, three of which were appropriated to the gentlemen, and the remainder to the professionals. The opening event was a Match between two of the oldest mesabers of the Club, which was won by Sir John Barker Mill's colt The Flying English- man— his first appearance in public— after a" remarkably close struggle with Mr Campbell AVyndham's Kilbride, whose leg failed in the last three strides, just as Flatman called upon her for the " finishing touch." The second race, a Sweepstakes of 5d sovs each for three year olds, was an exact repetition of the first, " bar" the break down— two runners only, and the same jockeys up,— resulting in a second victory for the popular Baronet of Mottisfont, who was warmly con- gratulated thereupon. The opponents on this occasion were Bar- one and King of the Forest, the latter of whom, betraying unmistakeable symptoms of not having recovered from the attack of influeuza which came on at Epsom and prevented his starting for the Derby, was forced to succumb to an inferior animal in very superior condition. The next race brought the " amateur performers" before the public in the Bibury Stakes, for which half a dozen members " sported silk," four of whom, though not unknown to fame in other districts, made their debut at Bibury on this occasion in company with the " veterans" Captaiu Little and Mr Scobell. There was little choice in point of favouritism between Van Eyck, Decamp, and Turk, but the race was all one way— Turk ridden with exemplary' patience by Mr Harrison, a veterinary surgeon in the Royal Artillery, winning in the commonest of canters by half a'length. The half mile Handicap Plate brought out the largest field of the day, and was won easily by Lady Coningham, who recompensed her stable for the disappointment she caused them at Bath. It should be stated that Stapleton by Staplefield was handicapped by mistake as a three year old, and appeared on the card as of that age, instead of a year younger. The Andover Stakes proved to be the " good thing" it looked on paper for Alembic, with Captain Little up, and the " gentlemen" thereby recovered tl-. eir pre- vious losses upon Van Eyck ; although, from the effects of the weather, their fate " hung in the balance" afterwards, until the horse's bridle was fetched to remove all doubts upon the point. The dozen nominations to the Champagne Stakes produced a small field of four two year olds only, including a fine powerful filly of Lord Portsmouth's, rejoicing in the appropriate and piquante title of " My Niece," whs landed without an effort the odds so freely laid on her by the public— her noble owner and other supporters of the stable, from the fact of the mare having been very seriously affected on the previous Monday, trusted her for a mere trifle only. The Club meeting was brought to a con- clusion with a Selling Stake, wherein Captain Little again " did the trick" on a wretched looking filly by Weatherbit out of Man- gosteeu, who upset a " pot" on Affghan, but failed to obtain a bid at the hammer subsequently. The Duke of Beaufort has accepted the stewardship for 1858. The acceptances for the Goodwood Stakes were made known upon the course, but led to very little betting thereupon, the only transaction's that came to our knowledge being 100 to 6 against Martinet, and 20 to 1 eaeh against Rosati and Squire Watt, to small sums only. 250 to 200 was taken twice about Bliuk Bonny and Ignoramus for the St Leger, 300 to 100 about the latter singly, and 10 to 1 rather freely about Arsenal. The following Derby bets were laid :— 1,000 to 60 ( three times) agst Clydesdale, 2,000 to 100( twi « ) agst Streamer, aud 5,000 to 50 agst Childrey. During the intervals of the racing there was some betting upon the Northumberland Plate at 5 to 4 and 6 to 5 agst. Skirmisher, and 4 to 1 agst Mongrel, ( nothing else at all fancied), and as the time arrived when it was thought the result might possibly be known by telegraph, considerable excitement prevailed. Several " shaves' were circulated, and it was credi- bly stated that Vandal had won ; nor was it until after a little extra excitement was occasioned by the arrival of a messenger " all hot" from Andover, who turned out to ba the bearer of a message for a gentleman, having no reference to the Plate, that the anxiety of those interested in the result was relieved by the genuine information of Skirmisher's defeat by Underhand, sup- plied to theai en route to Andover by one of the messengers sf Mr Wright, the well- known telegraphic agent.

Border Chief made play, followed by Prince of Wales and Van Eyck, the other three lying abreast for about half a mile, when Decamp went up on the inside and joined Prince of Wales and Border Chief, Van Eyck at the same time dropping back into the fourth place. The three leaders closed in rising the hill, but when fairly round it split, leaving Decamp with the lead, which he held into the dip, where Rialto, Van Eyck, and Turk passed him. The latter waited until opposite the Stand, when, making his effort, he headed his opponents without difficulty, and won easily by half a length ; two lengths between second and third. Border Chief was a very bad fourth, and Prince of Wales last. Run in 2min 59sec. A HANDICAP of 5 sovs each, with 50 added, for two and three year olds ; half a mile; 15 subs.

The running was made by Lady Conyngham, closely waited upon by Barbarity, The Hero filly, and Schoolfellow to the Stand, where the light weight came out and won easily bv a length.

THURSDAY, JUKE 25.— The hopes iu which we indulged last week that the Stockbridge Meeting, like Ascot, might turn out better than the programme warranted us in anticipating, were unfortunately not realised. Small fields were the order o^ the day, but these shortcomings were amply recompensed by a magnificent struggle for the Stewards' Plate, the closeness with w'pieh the two two year old races were contested, and the excitement created by the meeting of Ignoramus and Anton in the Stockbridge Derby, involving, as the latter event did, the fate of the great northern " crack" for the " Sellinger." The first appearanco this year of Ignoramus was an event sufficient in itself to attract raciag men from all parts of the kingdom, and, added to the brilliancy of the weather and the convenience of a special train from Waterloo at a quarter past nine in the morn- ing, quite prepared us for the great increase in the attendance, which included many distinguished fashionables who were pre- sent at the Queeu's ball at Buckingham Palace the previous even- ing, and several bookmakers direct from Newcastle. The de- maud for conveyances at Andover far exceeded the sup- ply, although Mr Woolf, the proprietor of the Star— head- quarters of the Bibury Club— by engaging everything that the district possessed, did all in his power to meet th « requirements of the public ; and many parties as last year had to perform the journey on foot. The Club marquee was again thrown open with refreshments for the members and their friends, and in the course of the afternacn we were enabled to make out the following list— by no means a complete one— of the fashionables and others present:— The Marquis of Exeter, Marquis of Donegal, Earl of Zetland, Earl of Derby, Earl aud Countess of Portsmouth, Earl of Lincoln, Eirl of Suffolk, Lord Dacre, Lord Exmouth, Lord Clifden, Lord Milton, Lord E. Rus- sell, Lord Ro. vston, Lord R. Clinton, Baron Rothschild, Hon Mr Harbord, Hon Mr Dundas, Hon Admiral Rous, Hon G. W. Fitzwilliam, Hon C. W. Fitzwilliam, Hon Col Archdall, Hon Col Forrester, Hon L. A. Ellis, Hon Major Wortley, Hon G. Vaughan, Sir W. Milner, SirW. Codrington, Sir J. B. and Lady Mill, Sir R. Peel, Sir R. King, Sir L. Newman, Sir W. W. Wyun, Sir J. Hawley, General Shubrick, Col Campbell, Col Fane, Col Astley, Col Somerset, Lieut- Col King, Major Astley, Capt Little.

Heathcote, Huffam, Ten Broeck, Martyu, T. Drake, E. Drake, E. Bisshopp, C. Bernard, R. E. Cooper, Magenis, Lance. C. Lindow, W. Knatchbull, Drinkald, Charle- ton, Wharton, W. Williamson, G. Morgan, L. Stanhope, Tregon- well, Graeme, Harrison, Davidson, Gordon, Osbaldeston, Scobell, Gully, Stubbs, R. Reade, Padwiek, St John, Robertson, H. R. Powell, & c. With the same amount of work cut out as for the Club meet- ing yesterday, the proceedings commenced at two o'clock with the Four Year Old Triennial, three of the starters for which were at one time stable companions at Danebury; and it is not a little curious that Aleppo, though least thought of up to the period of last year's Derby, should eventually turn out the " best of the bunch." Wentworth to- day, however, was evidently out of his distance, whilst Rogerthorpe, besides giving the winner 4lb, was apparently wrong somewhere, and as far as his talented jockey could discover when he jumped off his back immediately after the race ( which caused many to suppose he had broken down), the seat of injury is the back. The pace was a " cracker," con- sidering the distance and intense heat. From the fact of Anton's owner having backed Ignoramus for a large amount for the double event, a rumour got abroad that the little horse would not be pulled out against the " great gun" for the Stockbridge Derby, but the telegraph soon relieved all doubts upon the sub- ject, and in addition to Anton, two others were bold enough to have a shy for the third prize— they had no pret ensions to thefirst or second. Whsn the two " cracks" entered the inclosure the greatest curiosity was manifested toseethemstripped, Anton, who first showed, was the perfection of condition, whilst Ignoramus, who has a club foot, looked " big," which, added to the extreme confidence of the Danebury stable, and the defeat of Skirmisher at Newcastle the day before, caused the betting betwesn them to be very spirited. We have described the race so mi- nutely in the proper place that we shall only refer en passant to the opinions expressed afterwards, some contending that Ig- noramus only just got through, and others, that he won easily. The spur marks on his sides would support the former argu- ment ; but on the other hand, we are assured from most indis- putable aud unprejudiced authority, that he is a very lazy horse, and that John Osborne ( who travelled from Newcastle especially to ride him) used his " persuaders," not at the finish of the race but in descending the hill beyond the mile past, and again after turning into the straight, sole- ly because the horse lurched with him. The heat was enough to sweat sove- reigns, but Ignoramus, besides sweating, lathered so freely when he re- entered the inclosure that we are of opinion he may be brought to the post several pounds better, provided his legs ( which are as big, and apparently as strong, as a fourteen- stone hunter's) do not suffer from the hard ground hereafter, or his race to- day over such a severe course, the gradients of which are by no means suited to so big a horse, as— comparatively speaking— the dead fiat of Doncaster. Before the race Ignoramus was backed at 5 to 1 and 9 to 2 for the Leger; 500 to 200 was taken after- wards, and there were plenty of offers to go on at that figure, but the layers confined their offers to 2 to 1. 1,600 to 100 was likewise taken about Anton winning the double event, and though the " little horse" ( as he looked by the side of the other) was beaten, the performance by no means disgraced him. Five starters were uext telegraphed for the Two Year Old Triennial, and on the strength of his good looks, we suppose, as it was stated he had never been tried, Sir John Mill's colt by Bay Middleton out of Cymba was a great " pot," The loss of Alfred Day's services, however, which were claimed for a " duffer" of Sir Joseph Hawley's, lost the Danebury stable the race; and it must have been anything but pleasant to the backers of the fa- vourite, who was pulling double opposite the Stand, to see Flat- man on Star of the East ride George Mann completely out of it. Strange to say, the last two year old of Mr Bowes's that ran here was a grey, The Bonnie Morn, with whom he won the Triennial in 1854. John Day seems doomed to disappointment on his own ground, for in the Selling Stakes which followed, and for which Lady Elizabeth, who bolted across the course half way in the distance, was the favourite, The Admiralty ran away from her horses at the finish in the same style that Mincepie dicl two years ago, and benefited the Ring and the fund only by her hollow victory. The winner had not a solitary supporter in her own stable, but at the hammer realised £ 120 to the fund. Igno- ramus having been struck out of the Stewards' Cup ( which is not a p. p. race) at a quarter past three, only Polestar, Fisherman, aud the " dark" Brother to Homily ( better known amongst the winter favourites at " the Corner" as the Blue Devils colt) put in appearance, and the interest was altogether centered in the two old ' uns, the struggle between whom for duration and severity recalled Rataplan aud Ninnyhammer's memorable race in 1853. Polestar met Fisherman ( who, besides carrying 51b extra for winning the Queen's Vase at Ascot last year, was re- ported to have had a very brief preparation), on such advantage- ous terms that she engrossed nearly all the favour in the Ring, 7 to 4 being betted on her. Goater made the best use of the weight, but having let up Fisherman on the inside the mare could never get out of his way afterwards, and Wells immor- talised himself by landing Mr Parr's coleurs victorious after one of the finest exhibitions of horsemanship ever witnessed. Subse- quently 20 to 1 was taken about Fisherman for the Goodwood Stakes, for which, as the handicap now stands, he " tops the tree" with 8st 121b. The Mottisfont, for which another small field went to the post, was reduced to a match at the finish between Vandyke and Wilton ( the first of Grosvenor's stock that has appeared in public), and the pertinacity with which Wells stuck to the favourite must have caused the layers of 3 to 1 and 7 to 2 on the latter to feel anything but com- fortable, as the flat— a neck— caused Vandyke nearly all he knew to secure it. This is Sir Lydston Newman's maiden victory, though we trust it may not be the last time his " stars " will be in the ascendant. The Three Year Old Triennial was the only remaining item on the card, and after the greater portion of the company had taken their departure, an opponent to Anton, in the King of the Forest, was telegraphed, but it turned out a false alarm, and whilst the latter was on his way to the post, the offer of a " pony" from the owner of Anton secured a walk over for the latter, wherewith the meeting ter- minated. John Day, whose stable it will be seen brought out six winners during the two days, proved himself quite au fait to the duties of Clerk of the Course, and ia the hands of Messrs Manning and Hibburd the offi- cial business was conducted in the most efficient man- ner possible. The new stewards are the Earl of Zetland and Mr Bowes ; and, though we have the pleasure to notice the zealous endeavours of one of the principal supporters of the meeting to obtain subscriptions to the Stewards' Plate and other races, we regret to record the lukewarmness of many noblemen and gentlemen in subscribing to the former prize at the risk of a " fiver" only, which, at a delightful meeting like Stockbridge, supported by the noblest and richest of the land, is, to say the least, anything] but the treatment stewards ought to receive in such quarters. We hope our hint may be taken in the proper spirit, and that the prestige of the twin meetings of Bibury and Stockbridge may never be diminished. Third Year of the Seventh STOCKBRIDGE TEIESHIAL STAKES of 10 sovs each, for four year olds ; colts 8st 101b, fillies 8st 5lb ; untried stallions or mares allowed 3lb ; but only one allow- ance ; winners of the Derby, Doncaster St Leger, Emperor's Vase at Ascot, Goodwood or Doncaster Cups, in 1856 or 1857, 71b, or any two, 101b extra; the winmer to pay 25 sovs towards expenses ; two miles and a half; 48 subs.

Fitzwilliam's b c Wentworth, 8at 71b G. Mann 4 Betting : 5 to 4 on Aleppo, 5 to 2 agst Rogerthorpe, and 4 to 1 agst Turk. Aleppo went in front immediately after starting, but before reaching the Stand was joined by Rogerthorpe, who raced with him round the top turn and was then pulled back again, leaving Aleppo with a lead of four or five lengths. After passing the mile post Turk headed Rogerthorpe, and laid second to the top of the hill at the last turn, when the Danebury pair closing with him, these three ran abreast into the straight. Wentworth was then in trouble, and Turk giving way before reaching the dip, Rogerthorpe was left in solitary attendance upon the favourite. At the distance he began to lessen the gap between them, and opposite the Stand made a game effort to overhaul Aleppo, but failed to reach him, aad was beaten by a length; the other two were a long way astern.

In walking to the post Ignoramus showed a good deal of eager- ness, and breaking away before the flag fell caused a falsa start, in which all took place, the favourite and Slanderer going up- wards of a quarter of a mile before they were stopped. In walking up the second time Anton was a little awkward, and the favourite again broke away. When the signal was given Ignora- mus showed in advance, but after the first hundred yards Anton rushed past him, and taking a lead of fiveor six lengths of Igno-, ramus, made play at a pace which disposed of the Beeswax colt and Slanderer before they had gone three- quarters of a mile. There was no alteration in the position of the two favourites until rising the hill about three- quarters of a mile from home, at which point Ignoramus made up hi3 ground rapidly, and at the turn into the straight was close to Anton. In descending the hill for home, the favourite lurched a good deal, but after a taste of the " prickers" went up to his opponent, with whom he ran almost level, until opposite the Stand, when the race was over, Ignoramus winning— easily at last— by half a length. The others, as already remarked, were out of tke race in the first half- mile. Run iu 2min 50sec.

After entering the straight Fish- erman began to improve his position, and creeping up inside got to the mare's quarters in the dip, where he waited until half way in the distance, and then reached her head.

Clerk of the Course, Treasurer, and Starter : Mr Robert Smart. These races came off on Saturday week, but are in no way connected with the established Edinburgh meeting, usually held in May, which, owing to the Royal Caledonian Hunt hold- ing their autumnal gathering in October next, is postponed till that period. The present meeting was almost exclusively a local affair, having for its guidance its own rules and regula- tions, and it is to be regretted that at any race meeting the ex- cellent laws of the Jockey Club are not used, and strictly adhered to. The day being fine, and the Saturday an afternoon's holiday, there was a large attendance of spectators. The racing, which did not terminate until nearly seven o'clock, resulted as under :— SATURDAY, JUNB 20.— The TRIAL STAKES of 3 sovs each, with 25 added, for officers' horses, and ridden by the same; lOst 71b each; professionals 71b extra -, half a mile; 8 subs.

Newman, Admirers of the national pastime will learn with delight that seasons of difficulty arising from lamentable occurrences, whicJl hung like a millstone round the necks of the praiseworthy few striving might and main to preserve this very ancient racing festival, have at length given place to a more healthy, aud, w © may add, highly satisfactory position of affairs. One result we find to be, that since the last meeting new drainage has been cut from the rise of the hill at the east side of the course, where a nice covering of grass now makes verdant the once sterile and much- complained- of ground. Improvements have likewise been effected at other portions of the moor, and by the exer. tions of the united committees, the " wires" are now brought into the paddock itself, so that after being minus the electric accommodation so long, there is at length provided perhaps the most ready facility of the kind we have witnessed Alterations, as noticed below, also ap- peared in the old- standing programme, but, as of yore, tha chief interest lay m the - Northumberland Plate, about which, whilst 6 to 1 agst Usderhand went begging in the southern and midland districts on Monday, a couple of points less were here snapped up grecduy, without however in the least undermining the prestige for Lord Zetland's horse.

Unusual duhiefs pervaded The town, nor on reaching the course on Tuesday did a very meagra attendance and the few horses coloured for each event on that day s eard contribute much to increase thA excitement. The skies were propitious and the heat sub. dued, but a thick haze hung round the skirts of the ground! and at times shut the horses from view at the Stand. The Trial stakes, as usual carne first for decision, and Herne ( the Ann Page colt), with odds on him, repeated his New ™ performance by winning easily. The North Derby, me moral ™ last year for the unlucky contretemps to Warlock, was further curtailed in the former respect but perhaps none the less un- looked for m its result seeing that Norton, ridden iu the Blink Bonny jacket, ran right away from his horses at starting suffered them to come. to turn again, ad libitum, and finally, with a slight rousing, won in a canter, and most signally capsised the " pot" on Sprig of Shillelagh ! The exactitude of time with which both events were brought to an issue having been favourably com- mented upon, next oddly enough, was furnished an instance of overdoing it m that particular. Nine numbers telegraphed for the Members' Plate included that of Merlin, for whom Charlton weighed. The horse, however, had not then arrived on the ground, and though the others were mounted and had left the paddock, as it wanted twenty minutes to the annointed time no fears were entertained but that the animal would arrive in time also. Drivers of the quill and others consequently pursued their labours m quietude, until in a few minutes after- wards cries of " They're off!'.' penetrated the sanctum. The judge barely reached his box in time to give an award, and our representative reached his perch only to witness the bare finish. Courtenay, the " pick" of the Ring, came in first, but as Merlin was on the way to the post when the flag fell, h s owner imma. diately protested as the start had takTu place fifteen m S before the hour ( four o'clock) named, Merliri meanwhile S ing over the course, by himself Having a horse engaged, IL Charks Monck declined to adjudicate upon the noint, which wag forthwith entertained by Mr Jaques and Mr Nichol, the other steward present, 50 sovs to withdraw the objection having bera first refused by Mr Robinson. It appeared that the blunder arore through an eccentric and unaccountable quick movement of the starter's chronometer, which told off the hour of four to the secosid when he gave the signal- the delusive " ticker" in no way differing from other dials at the commencement of the sports, though now a quarter ahead. Under these circumstances the start was declared void, and was ordered to be run again! after the other events of the day, when The Caliph. Hebe, Logie 0 Buchan, and Actress declining the secondessay, five onlv went to the post Courtenay now with odds on him, again bringing horr. e Mr I Ansen s colours with even greater ease than in the first journey. Thornhill as anticipated, pulled off the Selling Stakes, and, at a small advance on his price, returned to his old quarters. A pot" on Ronconi for the Tyro Stakes, for which half a dozen sported silk, was upset by an outsider in Honeyshck ( a descendant of Honevwood), not backed for a penny- piece, " Johnny," prior to the race, having stood no end of chafi respecting his " splendacious" mount: though none of the pokers of fun were venturesome enough ta accommodate him with the 20 to 1 a » ked for. So firm were tb « favourites for the " Plate," that business at Graing^ Hotel m the evening, may be summed up in a few words, the onlv transaction of importance being a bet of 1,209 to 300 against ; Underhand, laid bv a metropolitan bookmaker, whose stock of pepper in this direction seemed inexhaustible. Nor need we detain the reader with proceedings on the succeeding ( Wed- nesday) morning, inasmuch as excepting that Skirmisher ad< vanced to evens and Underhand receded half a point, prioes remained much the same as those quoted at the dose More brilliant weather never kept faith with Midsummer Day and as regards visitors, immense as have been the flocking in former years, the one in question was assuredly greater. Huge and unbroken masses poured from the station during the fore- noon, clouds of dust thence responding to the hasty tramp and j indicating, as far as the eye could reach, the line of marchr The principal aud other stands were crammed to suffocation and at two o'clock, when cleariag the course seemed aliaost ' an im- possibility, nothing could exceed the promptitude with which obedient to the police, under the efficient disposition of Mr Chief Constable Sabbage, the crowd retired outside the rails for a resumption of racing with the Free Handicap, for which Im- peneuse and Breeze were equal favourites, though ivrhaps the latter had slightly the call at starting. The Malto- n filly, how- ever, waited and won easily. Saunterer having next cantered away with the Grand Stand Stakes, the unexpectedly small field of seven runners was exhibited for the Northumberland Plate, for which it may here be mentioned that Assayer was struck out on Monday, at 5: 15 p. m.; Polestar and Ephorus on Tuesday, at 9 a. m.; and the Prioress filly to- day at a quarter past two this afternoon. Before taking their canters the horses were paraded for several minutes beneath ti- e bal « cony of the Stand, in which was assembled a fascinating array of the elite and beauty of the Northumbrian and Durham counties. These and other preliminaries concluded, the horses quitted the post at thirty- five minutes past four, Baroda going to the front, and making the nnming at his best pace for El Hakim. This was so indifferent for nearly a mile and a half that Charlton, till then lying off, took the " crack" to the fore, and, forcing the pace, came on a length in advanoa to the straight, to which point it looked any odds upon him. 1 nderhand ( most steadily ridden by Plumb), however reached him in the next fifty yards, and, obtaining a trifle the best of it, al. Charlton s persuasion" to reverse " the positions proved unavailing, aud, after a very exciting race, Underhand, amidst general cheering, was proclaimed the winner by a head. What the shouting would have been had matters turned out t'other way, we leave ethers to imagine, seeing that the Newcastle folks, almost to a man. staked their utmost shilling in confidence : cf " spots" again pulling through successfully. The winner had likewise a tolerably strong party, many of whom, including his owner, entrusted him with a good slake after his MancheS ter triumph. El Hakim ran forward to the distance and will ! doubtless, some day be heard of to more advantage Of* three runners showing in the first instance for the Commer « rial Visitors' Plate which succeeded, Cock Robin was made the favourite at 6 to 4, but when the horses were within a few vards of the post, up went the number of Plausible, who was immedi- ately backed against the field, and she won amid loud denuncia » tions of such bare- faced trickery. At the hammer the mare changed hands, and by her sale placed 95 sovs to the fund The Queen's Guineas, won in a walk by General Williams supplied another illustration of how the revenue in these matters is in- variably misapplied. As relates to quantity but little need be said of Thursday's running. It was thought that in converting the Gold Cup into a handicap an improvement upon formM" wretched fields might be effected ; but through oversight we . suppose, the new coudition failed to produce an entry at all thus leafing four events only for decision on the last day, one of these, too, the Gateshead Lottery Stakes, going off in'a walk over, and but for well- patronised stands and the customary large nettings of the tent- holders, might again have raised the question of curtailing the meeting to two days. Courte- nay served the fielders in placing to liis owner's credit the Tyne Handicap; Caliph followed suit by upsetting the calculations of the Ring for the Speculation Plate, and the suc- cess of Vandal for the Corporation Plate constituted a most appropriate finale to the racing, seeing that it afforded the very large attendance an opportunity of testifying with rounds of applause their esteem and respect for Sir Charles Monck who with A. Nichol, Esq, assiduously employed themselves each day iu superintending the conduct of affairs, which, whether relating to judge, starter, or clerk, was unexceptionable. For the latter it is not too much to say that no individual could have more signally exerted himself in the actual working part of so exten- sive an undertaking, and that he deserves well of his fellow- . townsmen and the sporting world generally, we most cheerfully accord our unequivocal testimony. Subjoined are full details o'f th « running: TUESDAY, JTTJTB 23.— The TRIAL STAKES of 5 sovs each, with 20 added, for two year olds and upwards ; the second to save his stake ; T. Y.

Withington weighed for the filly by Burgundy out ! of Prioress, and the number was put up, but she did not go to the post.

The latter being in advance when the flag fell, cautered in front to the foot of th<? hill going out, when Norton went to the fore, made all the running afterwards', and won easily by a length. Admiral Lyons and the favourite, whose riders ceased riding at the distance, trotted in a score lengths behind the forward pair.

The latter, with Caliph and Ghika in attend- ance, cut out the work to the Newcastle turn, where De Ginkel took up the running, from which point to the straight he was succeeded by Alma and Logie o' Buchan, the former resuming the command when fairly round the bend. The favourite then drew up to the forward horses, deprived Alma of the lead out- side the distance, and won in a canter by a length; the second finishing half a length before Logie, who beat De Ginkel by a head, the latter having a similar advantage over Caliph. Two lengths from them Actress was sixth, Hebe seventh, and Ghika last. At the scale, Mr Robinson objected to the validity of the race, inasmuch as in starting before the set time, Merlin for whom Charlton had weighed, was prevented taking part therein. The protest, as noticed in our introductory remarks, was at once considered, and eventually the race was declared void. The betting then changed to 2 to 1 on Courtenay, and 4 to 1 agst Merlin, who made play for about two hundred yards, when Alma went to the fore, Ghika going on second, De Ginkel and Merlin next, the favourite lying off in the rear. In this order tbey reached the bottom turn,' where Courtenay went up to his horses, disposed of Alma at the distance, and shaking off De Ginkel about half way up, again won easily by a length; same between second and third; the others tailed off, Caliph, Hebe, Logie o' Buchan, and Actress, did not start the second time.

Garnish and Cheery Chap ran in front for the first three hundred yards, when the favourite closed with them, aud the trio, with Sir Charles Monck's filly slightly lead- ing, came on together to the distanoe. Roneoni was here in trouble, and Cheery Chap showing in advance lialf- way up, it looked any odds on him to within a score yards of the Stand, when John Osborne brought up Hoaeysictk with a rush on the outside, and won very cleverly by a neck in the last two or three strides: half a length separated the second and third, a length the third and fourth, and the others were beaten off.

After breaking away and galloping nearly a quarter of a mile, Attorney- General, with Breeze and Minnie at his shoulders, ran in front to the straight, directly after entering which the first- named pair gave way to La Vic- time, Manganese, and the favourite. In this order, with Minnie slightly in advance, the forward division reached the distance, when Imp^ rieuse went in front, and won cleverly by half a leugth; the third, beaten a head from the second, having an advantage of a length over the fourth; La Victime close up with the latter, Attorney- General ( who ran out at the lower turn), sixth, Sneeze ( who pulled up lame) aud Breeze next, Plausible last.

The Hag was lowered at the first attempt at thirty- five minutes past four, when Baroda, who ran to serve El Hakim, went to the fore, and at an ex- tremely moderate pace was succeeded by the latter and Mongrel, Pantomime lying three or four lengths from thsm, Vandal and Underhand being the two next, the favourite in the rear. In breasting the hill going out, Mongrel became second, aud at the top the leader increased his ad- vantage to six or seven lengths ; but came back to his horses again at the mile and quarter post, where the lot drew into a perfect cluster, except Skirmisher, who still whipped in a length behind the lot. In the next two hundred yards, however, he began to creep up, and took fourth place as they rounded the Newcastle turn, Baroda's mission having ended at that point, when Mongrel and Vandal were left in command, El Hakim going on third, the favourite next, and Underhand fifth. Shortly afterwards the " crack " bore his colours in the van, and Mongrel and Vandal giving way about a quarter of a mile from home, El Hakim and Underhand became his followers into the straight, the latter immediately closing with the leader on his left next the rails, having the other ou the whip hand. El Hakim was beaten in about twenty strides further, and Under- hand getting his nose in front just inside the distance, main- tained a little the best of it all the way up, and won a splendid race by a head, El Hakim being two lengths behind the favourite. Six or seven lengths off Mongrel cantered in fourth, and the others succeeded at wide intervals. Run in Smin 46sec.

The Prioress filly, with Sprig of Shillelagh, the favourite, and Courtenay, closely laid up, made play to the half distance, where La Victime showed in advance, but being headed by Courtenay in the last few strides, was de- feated cleverly by a neck, the favourite having a similar ad- vantage over the third, who beat the fourth by a length. Attorney- General lost start, and was last all the way.

Attorney- General broke away arid caused one false start, and when tho flag fell jumped off in advance with Little Ann, the horse taking up the running at the foot of the hill, the mare going on second, General Williams and Vandal heading the ruck, at the tail of which was Commoner, with Matilda ( who lost start) and Caliph far behind him in the extreme rear. Attorney General went on with a slight lead to the Newcastle turn, where the field became widely scattered, excepting the favourite, Vandal, and Humourist, who closed aud ran nearly abreast with the leader for about a hundred yards further. Humourist then dropped away, and Attorney- General following suit in a few strides, General Williams and Vandal were left to fight it out. The two thence ran a good race home, the three year old leading to about the last fifty yards, when the other deprived him of his advantage, and won cleverly by three parts of a length; a bad third.

Half- way down the far side Elfrida was disposed of, leaving Vulcan with a clear lead, which he held into the straight, where he was joined by Tinwald and Amelia.

Burke, Bart; the Marquis of Waterford, and Wm. Quin, Esq. Ranger: Robt. Browne, Esq. Deputy- Ranger and Keeper of tha Match Book: J. R. Hunter, EsQ Judge: Mr R. J. Hunter. Starter: Mr Clancy. The number of interesting races for decision at this meeting attracted, as we anticipated, a more than usually full attendance of the regular habituis of the Curragh, and an immense muster of holiday folk from the Camp and adjacent country. The Great Southern and Western Railway afforded the usual accommoda- tion of a special, which consisted of eighteen carriages, heavily freighted, and which reached the rear of the Grand Stand, to which the rails have been recently laid down, within the hour, is ample time to allow visitors to look about them before the commencement of business. The sun shone out in fierce strength, and would have been wholly insupportable, but for a freshening easterly breeze. The course was in beautiful order, bat rather on the hard side, the great number of sheep driven from the camp side of the Curragh having left it very bare of herbage The business of the day commenced punctually to the hour appointed with the Scurry Handicap, on the T. Y. C., for which ten, the full number entered, soon appeared m their gay silken attire. As usual with most commencements, there was little or no speculation, the few investments made being chieily on the steeple chaser, The Arab Maid,> ho bore her colours to the fore right gallantly, Sans Culotte and The Hawk being the only horses near her at the finish. The field for the Three and Four Year Old Plate dwindled at last to four starters, owing to the advent of Lance, who was not, however, the Lance of the April meeting, being bandaged on both fore- legs, and looking lusty and dull in his coat, notwithstanding which his party freely laid 2 to 1 on him, whilst the partisans of the Prizefighter as stoutly took the odds offered against him ( 3 to 1), and there is no doubt had the latter been ridden with that patience so essential to good jockeyship he would have pulled through easily, for Lanee was thoroughly beaten half a mile from home, and the other had but " to wait aud win," tactics the reverse of which was followed by his over- sanguine jockey, and hence his defeat. The result of the Kirwan Stakes gave the fielders a rare turn, Newton- le- Willows ( in the same stable as agitation— the fa- vourite) not being backed for a sixpence. A like surprise occurred in the succeeding event, Dunboyne, hardly backed fer a sovereign, beating his stable companion Greyling and a large field, after a spiendid race with the Arab Maid and Alfred. The camp race, which ended in the succsss of The Nore after three heats, brought the first day's proceedings to a close. Oa Wednesday the attendance fell off considerably, still there was a large and fashionable company present, the weather again scorching, and the ground " hard as nails." The day's sports commenced with asmall Selling Stakes, which the favourite, Soeur deCharite, won as she liked, and was afterwards bought in for 50 sovs half of which went to the fund. Her Majesty's Plate was next decided, for which Prizefighter was made the favourite, Lance declining the contest. It was run at a wretched pace, and resulted in the easy success of the favourite, the Zouave being evidently not up to the mark. Speculation then turned on to the Nursery Stakes, for which the Knight of Malta was all the rage, until stripped, when, from his evident backward pre- paration, Sam Spode— a very clever colt, rather tall on the legs — became almost as good a favourite, and, as will be seen, pullod through in a canter, the favourite never once showing in the race. The succeeding event was one of those fine races between all en- gaged not often seen, the whole lot running in a " lump " to opposite the Stand, where Alcyone came on the outside and won by a short neck from Veteran, four others finishing so close to him that the judge was unable to award third place. The Scurry Corinthian3, won by Miss Bessy, after three several contested heats, wound up the day's amusement long after six o'clock.

The flag fell to an excellent start at the first attempt, Sans Culotte, in company with The Hawk and Sirocco, being in front, the others lying closely clustered, with the exception of Friday the Second, who hung towards the ditch, and never got into the race. Inside the chains Sirocco joined the front rank, but gave way before reaching the end of the Stand, where The Arab Maid emerging from the ruek, deprived Sans Culotte of the lead, and won easily by a length, about a like distance separating the latter from The Hawk, . whose next follower was Alcyone; the others beaten off.

Citron got away with the lead, which she, however, only retained for a few hundred yards, when England's Beauty took up the running, carrying it on to the turn into the straight, where Prizefighter deprived her of the lead followed by Lance, the former having much the best of the race to the chains, but thence gradually declining Lance came again, and at last won easily by two lengths, Citron cantering in third, and England's Beauty last.

At the half mile post Agitation was in trouble, and, dropping off, Newton beeame second, going up inside of Walterstown before reachifig the end of the rails, outside of which he was nearly driven by the latter swerving towards him ; both were, however, got straight in time, aud the race resulted in favour of Newton le Willows, who won easily by two or three lengths, Agitation a shocking bad third, and the others tailed off.

MR EDITOR : In the last number of your paper I see a cor- respondence about the late Kilmarnock Steeple Chases, in which my name is coupled with Mr Edward Heron Maxwell. I hope you will allow me a short reply. I shall call your atten- tion to my letter of the 16tn May, and ask if in it, as stated by Mr Maxwell in his letter of the 18th, I gave directions to the rider of his horse to go on the wrong side of a post ? I shall further call your attention to Captain Tait's letter, and add that the rider of the fourth horse, as well as the third, and the Clerk of the Course, who were with me, positively stated they heard no such directions given. I May further mention that at Ascot I had not had an answer from the ether Stewards, other- wise I should have written to Mr Maxwell. In that gentleman's own words I shall conclude, and " leave others to form their opinions."— Yours, & c, W. F. HAMILTON. London, June 22d, 1857.

TESTIMONIAL TO A HUNTSMAN.— A few days age the sports- men of Shropshire presented the late huntsman, Mr John God- dard, with a magnificent silver horn and a purse of 20 guineas. The former bore the following inscription:—" To Mr John God- dard, by the sportsmen in Shropshire, in approbation of his eon- duct as huntsman during the seasons of 1855 and 1856." It must be alike gratifying to the feelings of Mr Geddard, to Mr Tailby, whose huntsman he now is, and the gentlemen of High Leicestershire, to have secured the services of one worthy of such a testimonial and so well up to the duties of his calling, combining, as he does, all the qualifications of a thorough sports- man with uniform kindness and urbanity of manners to all par- ties in the field. The subscription list was headed by one of the best sportsmen of his day, Robert, Esq, of Longner Hall.— JEddowes's Shrewsbury Journal.

ROYAL THAME3 YACHT CLUB SCHOONER MATCH. [ From our Town Edition of Last Week,] This match, which was instituted four years ago, and which began with such an extensive entry and such an exciting contest> has, like many other institutions, rather fallen off in interest, though it still remains the great attraction of the year in the Thames— perhaps on account of the adventurous and unusual course to the Mouse and back. This year there were two prizes offered by the club, one a claret jug, value £ 190, for schooners of the first class, above 75 tons ; the other a tureen or tankard, value £ 50, for schooners of the second class under 75 tons. Quarter of a minute time for difference of tonnage. No time for tonnage beyond 150 tons. The course was from Gravesend round the Mouse Light and back to Greenhithe, and the 19th of June was fixed lor the day. Great expectations had been raised of an extensive entry, but the following vessels only mustered up courage to pay the entrance money. FIRST CLASS. YACHT. TONS. OWNER. PET 169 Mr A. Tooth ZOUAVE 99 Mr R. Arabin MAYFLY 118 Mr G. P. Bidder SECOND CLASS. YACHT. IONS. OWNER, AQUILINE 61 Mr J. Cardinall WILDMKE ...... 60 Mr J. Turner Turner VESTAL 74 Mr F. O. Marshall Of these the Pet could not get round in time to be measured, and did not start. Zouave is nearly new, built by Ratsey, and looks like a good comfortable boat. The Mayfly was built by White, aud has been lengthened, and does not appear fitted for racing. The Aquiline is a very pretty vessel, built by Harvey, in 1853, and looks as if she ought; to sail better than she has hitherto done. The Wildfire was built by White, and has often been leugthened. She was originally a cutter, but was altered to a schooner in 1854, since which she has been exceedingly suc- cessful in schooner matches. She has a running bowsprit, no knee of the head, and her masts are nearly upright. The Vestal was built by Inman, in 1854, and is a long, narrow, and very shallow vessel, with very little head- room below. She bad originally a fiat bottom with a deep keel, but during the last winter, the sides of the keel have been filled in, and ballast inserted, by which she is rendered more like au ordinary vessel, and seems much improved. She has now very large sails aud apparently a good fit out. The vessels were moored in two lines about half a mile below Gravesend, the first class lowest. A very strong east wind was blowing, and raised sea enough to make the boats dance about at their moorings. There was not much betting as to the first class, and no one seemed inclined to bet against the Wildtire in the second class. The first gun was fired at 12h 29min 80sec, and the second gun at 12h 33min 35sec, nearly a minute too soon; this • was done because the Aquiline was dragging her anchor, but was hardly fair to the others. The Vestal was the first to cant round, the Wildfire hung for some time, and was obliged to go to leeward of a brig, which everything else weathered; she was then in difficulties with her foresail, and did not get her sails set for nearly ten minutes, the others having set theirs in about 4min 20sec; and,, as will be seen, this delay lost her the match. The Mayfly had au outer jib; the others carried their four lower sails only. Just after the start the wind began to blow very strong right up the reach, which was very full of vessels, both at anchor and sailing; and the contending yachts fell into the following order: Zouave, Vestal, Aquiline, Mayfly, and Wild- fire. In one of the boards the Mayfly seeming to be all off the wind but on her right tack, came so near the Wildfire on the other tack that both put about. The entrance to Lower Hope presented a very pretty sight; the live vessels were very close, aud could just point down the reach, which they flew through at a great pace, accompanied by many other vessels, the sun shining brightly, aud a strong aud steady east wind blowing. The Zouave, Vestal, and Aquiline were close together, Wildfire keeping more to windward, Mayfly astern. In Sea Reach there was a tolerably heavy sea, and the vessels began to take it in over the bows. The Wildfire had kept to wind- ward all through the Lower Hope and the entrance of Sea Reach, and this seemed to have been right, as she rapidly caught up the leading vessels. Off Shellhaven, being on the wrong tack, and near the middle of the reach, she crossed the Aquiline on her right tack so near that the Aquiline put about, and soon afterwards hoisted a signal of protest. In another board or two Wildfire began to justify the expecta- tions of her numerous believers by passing Zouave, and coming very near Vestal, which, however, got away again, and from this point to the Nore ensued a most excellent and interesting struggle between these two vessels. Wildtire sometimes gained on Vestal, but the Vestal was sailed with very great skill aud judgment, and, being quickest in stays, kept on Wildfire's weather, winding her whenever she came too near, and keeping her back for an unparalleled distance. We presume that the Wildfire was sailed in the best man- ner, but she certainly was nearly a point more off the wind than either Vestal or Zouave. We mav mention that the Mosquito, with two reefs down and a boat astern, seemed to keep up easily with the racing vessels. The four leading vessels continued for a long time very near each other, and what with the strong wind, the bright sun, the short rolling sea into which they continually Ditched their bows, the number of other yachts cruising about, and the ships anchored in the reach waiting for a west wind, a more brilliant and lively scene has seldom been shown to the spectators of a sailing match. The vessels reached Chapman Head at lh 35min, and here Aquiline passed Zouave, and Vestal rather gained on Wildfire— these two had each reefed, principally, we believe, to steady their gaffs, as the wind had fallen rather than risen. At length, about three miles beyond the Nore, after one or two long reaches, Wildfire passed to windward of Vestal, and immediately began to gain fast, aud they rounded the Mouse Light, with a slight flood tide, as follows :— „ R H. M. S. H. M. S. I H. M. S. WlLDFlRB..,. 4 31 30 ZOUAVH i 46 15 MAYFLY VESTAL ...... 4 35 30 AQUILINE .... 4 49 SO | There was now little doubt that the struggle between Wild- fire and Vestal would be close. Vestal was known to be fastest off the wind, but her enemy had gained four minutes start, aud was to receive three and a half minutes, making seven and a half minutes— a long time. The vessels, of course, shook out reefs, and seitVnp topmasts. Vestal had an excellent fit out for the purpose, a good main gaff topsail, amain topmast staysail, and a noble balloon jib. Wild Are had her two gaff- topsails, fore staysail, jib, and jib^ aail; but these small sails were far inferior to the jib of her nvafc- The wind had come a little round So the north, so that all the oauyas drew, and the sea having gone down, the vessels flew along at n tremendous pace Vestal gaining fast on Wildfire, and they passed the Chapman Head abreast at 5h 59miii. Vestal never attempted to pass, the Wildfire to windward, and as the wind was now nearly dead aft, and the pails were wing and wing, the Vestal seemed likely to get through the lee of the other. It was now, however. Wild- fire's turn, and she continually stopped the Vestal. Up Sea Reach the vessels flew, Vestal now and then taking a start, being stopped, and dropping astern again; the vessels were close together, and the general observation of the beholders was that " horse- racing is nothing to it." At the entrance of Lower Hope the vessels, of course, jibed, and Vestal then went clear * vway; three minutes and a half, however, was a long time to in, and the match was by no means over, At first she did not I to gain so very much, being lmin 20sec ahead at Gravesend. n entering Northfieet Hope she flew off, whilst Wildfire becalmed under Gravesend, the wind falling light, as ly happens, towards the evening. Even after Vestal • naed the flag buoy, the other seemed to come up so fast that her partisans were for a short time in good hopes, but the final rounding of the flag buoy off Greenhithe was H. 5T.

Just before she came in, her gaff- topsail halyards either slipped or parted; and when she luffed down, the balloon jib carried away the jib- boom. It may be recollected that precisely the same accident happened to the Rosalind in her celebrated match with the Sverige. According to the rules of the R. T. Y. C., if a boat in the second class comes in actually ahead of all the boats in the first class, she takes the first prize, and the first boat in the second class takes the second prize; but a great question was raised, whether in that case there was any time to be allowed between two boats of the se- cond class. Fortunately, however, the success of the Vestal rendered it unnecessary to go into this tremendous subjeot or into the equally tremendous subject of the protest; though just as the prizes were being distributed a cry was raised that the Aquiline was approaching with her ensign flying by way of pro- test against somebody or something, and great was the relief at hearing, in answer to the Commodore's hail, that the protest was against the Wildfire. The prizes were accordingly given without further delay, the first to the Vestal, the second to the Zouave. The Vestal was sailed, and uncommonly well sailed, by Pittock, of the Volante, Thought, & c; and though she is much improved we hardly think that she will be, in general, able to keep up with the Wildfire, whose defeat we attribute, first, to her bad luck at starting, and next, to her insufficient supply of balloon sails and gear. The Zouave sailed uncommonly well, considering that she is a good stout vessel, with apparently plenty of room and accommodation on board, and she must be very fast off the wind.— The Prince of Wales steamer was engaged by the club, and left London Bridge at lOh 6min, keeping up the stern and excellent rule of punc- tuality with such firmness that the Commodore himself was left behind, and was taken up out of a boat off Black- wall. There were more than three hundred members and friends on board, with the excellent, but somewhat too noisy, band of the Life Gfcards; and the provisioning de- partment was exceedingly well managed throughout the long day by the steward, Mr Watts. The strong east wind and Srospect of the consequent sea near the Mouse were so formi- able that one at least of the company left the steamer at Gravesend. Luckily the wind got rather round to north, and fell a little, so that there was not so very much sea, and as the steamer was never brought broadside on, the motion on board was not excessive, and very few of the company suffered from sea- sicknes- 3. Once or twice, however, the steamer took in water enough over the bows to clear the fore- deck of all its crowd in a twinkling, to the immense amusement of those who escaped the salt and muddy spray. The Oread accompanied the match, and was well filled; and the stout tug, Ben Bolt, with a jovial and ap- propriate company on board, seeemed to have been chartered as a private steamer for the day. A great number of yachts were about at different times, but none went so far » s the Mouse ; among them were Pet, Mosquito, Drift, Dart, Minion, Minnie, Phantom, Zephyrine, Lisette, Phoenix, Silver Star, Silver Cloud, & c, & c, & c. •• MB EDITOB : As one of the sufferers from the extraordinary, and I may say unjust, decision on the late schooner match in the Thames, I should feel obliged by your giving the following remarks a place in your impartial and valuable paper. I had taken 2 to 1 to some amount that the Wildfire would win the first prize, and laid even money that she would win the second. There is no doubt but that had she started with them she wotald have come in first. I would therefore ask, who ^ places the ves- sels in their positions previous to starting, and why not give them all an equal chance ? Why was the line not taken above the coal- brig, instead of placing the Wildfire in such a position that in getting under weigh she must either go to leeward of this brig or foul of her ? There is no doubt but that the Vesta is justly entitled to the first from having beaten the first- class vessels without time. The Wildfire did the same, and thereby became a first- class vessel, and, I maintain, was both in law and equity entitled to the second prize. I think Mr Turner Turner, for the credit of his vessel, and for the sake of those friends who have backed her, ought to dispute this most incomprehensible and unfair decision. The Vestal may thank her large balloon jib for being able to run the Wildfire, which the latter had not.— Yours, & c, A SUFFEEEB. MB EDITOB: I have just been reading an account of thean- mated match for the prizes given by the Royal Thames Yacht Club yesterday, and I desire to point out an error in the regula- tions regarding the award of those prizes which needs only to be pointed out to be at once rectified. The yachts started for two prizes— those yachts above 75 tons contending for the first prize; those under 75 tons contending for the second— but, by a wise and just regulation, if a yacht of the smaller class should come in first she becomes entitled to the first prize, the first yacht of the larger class being entitled to the second prize. The injustice to which I allude is exemplified in the following case that occurred yesterday:— The Vestal, second class, obtained the first prize. The Wildfire, a yacht of the second class, though beating the Zouave, a yacht of the first class, obtained no prize at all I Surely this is hard ! I would suggest the substance of the following rule:—" Where two prizes are sailed for on the same day, the two leading vessels shall be entitled to them in the order in which they arrive at the goal. Should either of these vessels, however, belong to the second class, then the lead- ing vessel of that class shall be entitled to the second prize." This would be a short and comprehensive rule, and would not give an undue advantage to the smaller vessels; for it never cau be thought just that a smaller vessel beating a larger vessel, as in the case quoted, should be disentitled to a prize merely be- cause she is the smaller vessel. I only beg to add that I have no acquaintance whatever with the owner of the Wildfire, and never even heard of the vessel before, and that I write only in the cause of F AIRPLAY. London, June 20, 1857, ROYAL THAMES YACHT CLUB. The last monthly meeting of the season of the above club will take place on Wednesday evening next, July I, at the New Club House, 49, St James's- street. There are no less than thirty- three candidates for election, including yacht owners and non- yacht owners; and we have no doubt that there will be a very large muster of members and friends at the house dinner. Prior to the meeting, the noble Commodore, Lord Alfred Paget, M. P., has signified his intention of presiding. The third match of the season will take place on Saturday, the 18th of July. The several yachts entered must be at Gravesend on Friday, July 17, to be measured ; those yachts possessing club certificates of measure- ment, and which have nat received any subsequent alteration, will not be required to attend. The course will be from Erith to the Chapman Head Light and return. The prizes will be, 40 sovs value for the third class cutters, exceeding 12 and not ex- ceeding 20 tons; and a prize of the value of 30 sovs for the fourth class of cutters, 7 tons and not exceeding 12 tons ; with a prize of the value of 10 sovs to the second boat, provided four start. The Magician steamer has been engaged by the treasurer to attend the match for members and friends, and will leave the Adelaide Steam- packet Wharf, London Bridge, direct for Erith, without calling at Blackwall. Members who may be desirous of attending the club dinner in St James's- street, on Wednesday evening, 1st July next, are requested to enter their names early on that morning. Dinner will be on the table at six o'clock precisely. ROYAL MERSEY YACHT CLUB. The regatta which takes place annually under the auspices of this club commenced on Friday, June 19, under circumstances of more than usual brilliaucy. On this occasion her Majesty was graciously pleased to patronise the club, by the presentation of a silver cup, value one hundred pounds, to be competed for by yachts from any part of the kingdom, no entry required. In consequence of this liberal patronage on the part of the sove- reign, the list of yachts whose owners were desirous of com- peting for the royal cup thus vouchsafed to the Mersey was large. Nine yachts were placed on the competing list, but before the day of competition arrived, several accidents occurred to their ranks, and at the start only three were on the ground. The Oithona had entered, but did not arrive in time to start, having carried away some of her gear in coming round, and the Plover, 32 tons, was dismasted shortly before the race while carrying an enormous topsail and " big balloon jib; others were detained outside by the easterly winds. The early morning was exceedingly fine, with just sufficient pro- mise of a breeze to give liveliness to a yachting contest, without being equal to the development of full powers of large craft. The steamer Sea King, Captain Leach, was engaged by the club to convey the Commodore and members, along with their friends, from St George's pier; and it started about a quarter before eleven o'clock, with a numerous party of ladies and gentlemen, for the flag- ship, moored off Rock Ferry, at which the numerous matches were to commence and terminate. Immediately on reaching the moorings of the flagship, Commo- dore Littledale, Rear- Admiral Griuarod, Messrs Fletcher and Melling, went oa board her Majesty's royal steam- yacht Victoria and Albert, the Hon Captain Danman, commander, her Majesty having specially commanded the yacht to be present to grace the occasion, and after a brief stay Commodore Littledale and Mr Fletcher returned on board the Sea King; Rear- Commodore Grindrod and Mr Melling proceeding to the flagship. The fol- lowing yachts soon after took up their stations :— NAME. TONS. OWNER. SURPRISE 19 Mr T. W. Tetley CORALIH 36 Mr A. B. Byrne CYMBA 50 MrT. Brassey. jun The course was from the flag- ship down Victoria channel, leaving the black buoys on the starboard and the red buoys on the port haod, the Bell Beacon Buoy on the port hand, the N. W, Lightship on the port hand, the Bell Beacon Buoy again on the port hand, the N. W. Lightship again on the pert hand, again to the Bell Buoy Beacon, leaving for the last time on the starboard hand, and so up channel, reversing the order of passiug the black and red buoys. The start was made at llh 41min 40sec, and at llh 42min, before she had passed Tranmere, the Surprise was caught by a sudden squall from the E. S. E., and carried away her bowsprit and top- mast. She of course was effectually disabled, srad compelled to abandon the race. At llh 56min 25sec the Coralie, struck by a similar squall, sprung her topmast crosstrees, and had to strike her topsail. She coutiuued to run along, keeping close to the Cheshire shore. The Cymba, headed to a considerable extent by Mr Dawson's yacht Pearl, which, although not in the race, con- tinued all over the course, shooting far ahead. At 12h 13min, when a little below the fort, off New Brighton, the Coralie set her jib- headed topsail, and continued the race. The yaohts passed the Bell Buoy Beacon for the first time as follows :— H. M. s. I H. M. s. CYMBA 12 57 50 | COBALIB 1 10 12 The N. W. Lightship was rounded iu the following order :— H. M. s. T H. M. s. CYMBA L 21 O | CORALIB L 89 40 The second round of the Bell Buoy Beacon was made as follows: H. M. s. I H. M. s. CYMBA L 55 2 | CORALIE 2 13 0 At this juncture the Coralie, having hauled down her dis tinguishing flag, withdrew from the race, and stood up channel; the race consequently ceased to be a contest; but the Cymba proceeded on her course, and, after rounding the N. W. Light- ship once more. made her third round of the Bell Buoy Beacon at 2h 15min 30sec. From this point there was an animated contest between the Cymba and the Pearl, the latter keeping away from her competitor, which was gradually, though not very rapidly, gaining on her. At 3 a 42min the Cymba, having made all snug, weathered the Pearl, and from that moment shot ahead of her, but for several miles the contest was stiff, though not doubtful. At 4h 51min 45sec the Cymba was saluted as victor at the Flagship. PILOT BOATS' PUBSE OF £ 30.— For this race twelve had en" tered, but only six started. These were the Auspicious, Victoria and Albert, Prince of Wales, Queen, George Canning, and Per severance. At starting they all got well away, and, under the influence of a fresh breeze, which had become steady from the east, varying a little to the north, they stood down the river in spanking style. This course was round the Bell Buoy Beacon, round the North- west Lightship, and home to the Flagship. The following is the order in which they rounded the Bell Buoy :— Victoria and Albert, lh 14min 53sec; Queen, lh 18min 22sec ; Auspicious, Ib23minl5sec; Perseverance, lh 29min35sec; George Canning, lh SOmin 48sec; Prince of Wales, lh 30min 50sec. The Victoria and Albert ( No. 5) of the Pilot Boats, led confidently, rounding the N. W. Lightship, followed closely by the Queen ( No. 10), and the Auspicious ( No. 4). At a few minutes past three, p. m., when a little to the north- west of the Formby Lightship, the Victoria and Albert, at this moment to all appearances the winning vessel, went aground and stuck fast. She was soon passed by the Queen and the Auspicious, the latter Raining rapidly on the former. When a little below New Brighton, the Queen had to make a tack, losing ground con- siderably, which she was never able to make up. The Victoria and Albert got off at 3h 36mil), but not in time to save her lost op- portunity. The Auspicious came in winner at 4h 51m lOsec, and was followed by the Queen at five precisely. This was a well- contested race. THE MEESEY CUP, VALUE £ 20.— For this cup there were five entries. The course was round the Formby Lightship. The Charm canoe in victor at 4h 6rnin 35sec, followed by the Ranger at 4h lOmin 50sec, and the Iuo at 4li 20min 34sec. The other two ent ered were disqualified. OPEN SAILING BOATS, TWO PBIZES OP £ 510s AND £ 1 10s.—• For this race there were thirteen entries, but several disqualified. The first was I Will If I Can ; the second was Elizabeth ; the third, Sea Witch. Theprizes were awarded to the two first- named. REGATTA CUP, VALUE £ 15, The following seven yachts were entered, but four only started:— Charm, J. Poole; Glide, T. Wilkinson; Mayflower, G. Harrison; White Squall, J. South, berry; Wasp, J. S. Bishop; Alma, W. Scott; Snake, Wilkinson. The start took place at 2h 45min, and at 4h 23min lOsec the Mayflower passed the flagship, and was declared the winner. The others were not timed. At the close of the different matches, the presentation of her Majesty's Cup to Mr Harrison, iu the absence of the owners of the Cymba, took place on board the Sea King. The cup, a very handsome one, of open silver filagree work, embossed in spirals of tasteful foliage, stands about 15 inches high, and is placed on a silver salver, richly chased in frosted work, and foliage and scroll, the leading device being grape clusters and vine leaves. It has three embossed shields, two of which are enriched by the royal cypher, V. R., entwined, the third being engraved with the subjoined inscription:—" The Royal Mersey Yacht Club, 1857."

THE LATE SAILING MATCII.— MB EDITOB ; I think it is but an act of justice to the directors of the Waterman's Steamboat Company to state that they had nothing whatever to do with providing the refreshments and attendance on board the Father Thames on the occasion of the late R. L. Y. C. mateh. Mr Gore, who has hitherto catered for the club, having retired from busi- ness, it became necessary to employ another person, who will no doubt gain experience by the last match, and make more efficient arrangements in future.— Yours, & c, THOS. GREGORY, Secretary, R. L. Y. C. YACHTING INTELLIGENCE. COWBS.— The cutter yacht Irish Lily, belonging to R. W. Hillas, Esq, of the Royal Western and Irish Club3, arrived here on Monday from the westward, last from Plymouth, and remains. Orders have been received by the master of the schooner Cecile, belonging to the Marquis of Conyngham, to fit out forthwith. The cutter Mosquito sailed on Thursday for Kingstown, to be present at the forthcoming regattas in the Irish Channel. ROYAL YACHT CLUB STATION, KINGSTOWN. The preparations for the regatta of the Royal Irish Yacht Club to be held on this station on Tuesday, the 30th of June, and Wednesday, the 1st of July, have been now completed ; a tempting bill of fare will no doubt induce a numerous gathering of yachts, and the prizes are of the usual valuable nature for which the Kingstown meetings have ever been remarkable. The Mosquito fleet are all life and eagerness, and there is much more stir amongst them than their larger sisterhood. It may be adduced as indicative of the impartiality prevailing amongst the yacht clubs here, that notwithstanding the splendid fleet of yachts which may be sfcen from day to day quietly reposing at their moorings, or gently gliding over the deep blue waters of the beautiful bay, that there is not one out and- out- clipper be- longing to the port, but that each succeeding year Scotch and English racers bear away the handsome prizes which are annually offered, without a single effort for the honour of the station. The question may well be asked, " Why should such be the case ?" It is most assuredly not from any lack of yachting spirit, as the well- organised and excellently- managed regattas testify. We fear the larger craft are becoming Doles cose a vedere, e dolci inganni! If they do not arouse from their apathy, the Mosquito men will be apt to take the initiative in yachting improvements. The Royal Cork Yacht Club are an example in this way; they always have two or three out- and- out fast vessels, not only to maintain the ho- nour of their station, but to extend it elsewhere; par exemple, the Foam, Major Lingfield, the Vigilant,- J. C. Atkins, Esq, and though last, not least, Captain Henry H. O'Brien has always a " plank or two under him ready, willing, aud eager for the fray. Then, also, at Liverpool we find the Cymba and Surprise; in the Clyde, the Oithona, the Crusader, the Stella, & c, ready to meet racers from all quarters. Old Father Thames has the Mosquito, Glance, Amazon, Thought, Phantom, in fact, instar omnium, save and except Kingstown. Many of these clippers will make their appearance at the starting buoys on Tuesday and Wednesday next, and will bear off the prizes in triumph, and not a single Kingstown clipper, Irish built and Irish sailed, will be found near the Flag- boat at the finish; at least when we say so, we mean in the first flight of vessels. The days of the Water Wyvern, the Nimrod, the En- chantress, the Black Bess, the Cynthia, the Comet, the Paddy from Cork, those palmy days when Kingstown was blessed with champion yachts, who for the honour of the " Ould Green Isle" held watch and ward at the trysting place— such days, it seem- eth, are passed and gone. Why is this, ye yachtsmen of the finest yachting station in the world? The Atalanta, the gallant old ship, will come to the buoys as fresh as ever she did; the hardy little Banba also, with a new suit of sails by Lapthorne; these two vessels, of 27 aud 20 tons respectively, are the only two brave little ships that will stand eminently forward for the honour of the port. The following vessels are either now at hand, or may be ex- pected :— The Oithona, 80 tons, J. M. Rowan, Esq, Rear- Com- modore Royal Northern Yacht Club. The Oithona is as yet untried, it may be fairly said, and she will have to give a lot of time to a fifty; but, with all these drawbacks, it will be a rare ocean- walker that will beat her. If any vessels that will be present can do it, it will be either the Cymba, 53 tons, Thomas Brassey, jun, Esq, or the Crusader, 30 tons, J. Spiers, Esq. The Cymba will hardly start, as she will be prepared for a long cruise. The Foam, if she sails as she did this time twelve months, will be a formidable opponent, as also the Vigilant and Surprise. The weather will declare at once what the latter vessels will be able to do, if it is blowing heavily ; power united with speed must be served, and the Sootch boats are possessed of this pecu- liarity in perfection ; if moderate or fresh breeze, with smooth water, it will be anybody's race. A prophecy in a horse race is at most a mockery— how much more so iu a yacht race ? The knowing ones may judge pretty fairly as to who will be the winner, but to name the victor, with the multitude of chances against success, would indeed be a task, easy to attempt but hard to accomplish— unless to any individual anxious to acquire the position and enjoy the reputation of the various " sporting made easy," " winning made certain," or " the golden secret, gratis" gentlemen— whom, thank heaven, up to the present period, the yachting world is free from. The Isle of Man Regatta will succeed the Kingstown, and will bo held on the 8th and 9th of July. The usual excellent prizes will be given, and, in addition to the aquatic sports, the land 6tes on Douglas Head, together with horse racing on the sands, will present novelty and attraction to cruising yachtsmen. The Royal Cork Yacht Club Regatta, at Queenstown, on the 14th and 15th July, will attract the fleet then south, where the usual excellent management and valuable prizes will HO doubt give general satisfaction. Bantry Bay Regatta will come next on the list, when the beauties of Glengariffe and Killarney will form a picturesque alternation to the beautiful sea coast scenery of the romantic shores of Western Ireland. A regatta in that king of Irish rivers, the Shannon, is rumoured, and we have little doubt may be accomplished. The " Citie of the Tribes," Galway, will then be the centre of attraction, and from the amount of amusement and novelty at present in preparation, it bids fair to rival the regattas of the year. The sailing matches in the noble bay will come off first, when a purse of 100 sovereigns, open to all yachts will be contested for by a numerous fleet of clippers. Other valuable prizes will follow in the shape of purses of various amounts. After the regatta in the bay will follow that in Lough Corrib, where the smaller yachts— many of whom are to proceed by railway, amongst others the famous little American sloop, The Truant— will contend for the proud championship of the waters. Then there is to be a water frolic by the margin of this inland sea, and pic- nics and balls under the patronage and management of the regatta committee' will leave nothing undesired to add to the week's festivities! The Russian guns, presented by Lord Paumure to Galway, as the capital of the west of Ireland, will at ths same time be mounted in Eyre- square; and the colours— the battle- riven and blood- stained colours of Connaught's noble Rangers the world renowned 88th Regiment— will be deposited in their resting- place, and may the new ones about to replace them add as many scrolls to their fame. His Excellency the Earl of Car- lisle has signified his intention of honouring the regatta with his presence, and we have little doubt the " Citie of the Tribes" will receive the viceroy as becometh the capital of the west The following vessels are at present on the Kingstown station • — The Water Kelpie cutter, Captain Henry; Atalauta cutter H. Scovell, Esq; Coquette cutter, N. Hone, Esq; the Gitana cutter, J. Hone, Esq; the Banba cutter, W. Dogherty, Esq • the Blanche yawl, T. Maunsell Dunlevie, Esq; Norma cutter' M.

At the usual balloting day the following were admitted mem- bers :— Mr W. Coningham Plunket, Rev M. Lyons, Mr Griffith, and Sir John B. Walsh. Bart, R. Y. S. It is much to be regretted that the harbour works in connection with the new steam wharf waich impinge on the club grounds, and the necessary altera- tions required thereby, will prevent the dejeuner and ball, which has hitherto been given by the members on the occa- sion of the Dublin Bay Regatta; but the club comprises so many members that the most ingenious contrivances only enable them to accommodate their friends, advantage being taken of all available space. The club house, however, is un- affected by the out- door operations, and the same hospitable reception will be accorded to all members of royal clubs visiting Kingstown Harbour in their yachts. The St George's have pre- sented to their confreres, th Royal Irish, a magnificent prize, which forms the principal object for competition on the first day of the regatta, on which day his Excellency the Lord Lieu- tenant is ffeted at the club house. The prize consists of a most elegant and beautifully wrought silver vase, with a large sil- ver salver, chased in the most elaborate manner, and embellished with nautical devices. Altogether the regatta is looked forward to with much pleasurable anticipation, and, from the celebrated yachts already en route for the scene of action, there can be little doubt of the hope being completely realised. The follow- ing yachts are at Kingstown Station under the St George's colours, viz:— Atalanta, lone, Coquette, Heroine, Water Kelpie, Cormorant, Julia, Gitana, Mask, Nymph, Caiman, Olivia, and Adiue. Commodore the Marquis Conviigbam has purchased a screw steam yacht of ninety tons, built at Liverpool, and she is fitting for the pendant. Vice- Commodore Lord Otho Fitzgerald will also hoist his broad pendant on board a screw steamer built on his own lines and furnished with engines of his own design. Neither of these craft are, however, sufficiently for- ward to enable them to grace the regatta on the 30th inst. ROYAL CORK YACHT CLUB. Thursday, the 18th inst, being the day for the weeklv sailing of the R. C. Y. C. fleet, the following yachts got under' weigh at twelve o'clock:— Siren, 19 tons, T. G. French, Esq, Admiral of the fleet; Glimpse, 15 tons, S. Freneh, Esq ; Mayfly, 9 tons, Rear- Admiral Patton; Vigilant, 36 tons, J. C. Atkins, Esq; Kathleen, 32 tons, Capt Hodder; Cygnet, 35 tons, J. G. Daunt; Flirt, 15 tons, H. H. O'Sryen; Cygnet, 19 tons, R. Lander, Esq; Foam. 25 tons, M. Longfield, Esq ; Iris, 12 tons. A. Savage, Esq; Far, 42 tons, Joseph Wheeler, Esq; Charm, 12 tons, S. Perrott, Esq ; Prima Donna, 27 tons, S. Hardy, Esq. Alse Gauntlet, 30 tons, R. I. Y. C., J. Lambkin, Esq; Iris ( schooner), 20 tons, R. W. Y. C., G. O'Neill, Esq; Gem, 17 tons, R. W. Y. C., F. Olden, Esq; Fidget, 17 tons, J. Wallis, Esq; Seagull, J. P. Arnott, Esq ; aud several smaller boats. With a fine fresh breeze from E. S. E., they all proceeded to sea, and returned at three p. m., and continued for a considerable time under weigh outside the club house, presenting the most lively and picturesque appear- ance. The club quay was quite thronged with the iliie from the city and county. The band of the 99th Regiment played some beautiful pieces. In the evening between 30 and 40 mem- bers dined together in the club house, and not the least attractive part of the day's amusement was the soiree which took place in the ball- room of the Queen's Hotel, which was numerously and fashionably attended. On the evening of the previous day the royal yacht Victoria* and Albert, which had unexpectedly arrived, left the harbour, and as she passed the club house a salute was fired from the deck of the Ruby Queen schooner yacht, which was at once answered. This fine schooner is the property of P. C. Lovett, Esq, of Liscembe House, Buckinghamshire, whose arrival in the Cork waters was hailed with the most sincere plea- sure by his former numerous friends and acquaintances. It is expected that the regatta, which has been fixed for the 14th and 15th of next month, will be a most successful affair. Almost all the yacht- owners, after the Liverpool, Dublin, and Pembroke Dock Regattas, are determined to visit Cork. ROYAL KINGSTON- ON- THAMES REGATTA. This regatta is fixed to take place on Wednesday and Thurs- day next, July 1 and 2, and, considering the great efforts made by* the committee of management to procure prizes of the best aud most valuable description, and the convenient time at which it takes place with respect to those crews that have been in training for Henley, a very go » d meeting may be calculated on. There are no less than nine principal prizes, for matches of all descriptions, open to gentlemen amateurs from all parts, besides several races to be confined to local amateurs ( compre- hending the district between Teddington and Hampton) and local tradesmen. These prizes are the manufacture of Messrs Thomas, 153, New Bond- street, and may be viewed on their premises up to Moaday ( to- morrow) evening. Entries will also be received up to eight o'clock on the same evening, at Mr Shrubsole's, Market Place, Kingston. Heats are to be rowed if more than three boats enter, and no prize will be given unless two start. THE LATE DURHAM REGATTA. MB EDITOB : A few remarks on this regatta to the public through your medium would oblige many of the subscribers and readers of your valuable print. The failure of tbe regatta, which was held on Monday aud Tuesday, was most complete, and the question for consideration is, why should this regatta be a failure? When it is so liberally supported by the public, the prominent feeling is that it is conducted by the wrong parties. The stewards and committee are all partisans of the Durham crews, and the main desire of all is to hinder any prizes going from Durham, if such cau be done either by foul means or fair. The programme was faulty in the extreme, and the carry- ing out of the same most irregular, each race being at least half an hour after the time fixed. The music, which is geuerally good, was deficient, although the powder and rag was plentiful. The starter and the acting steward were of so nervous a temperament as not to know what they were doing, and no other stewards or committee were to be heard of. The Watermen's races ( four oar, pair oar, andskift'), were all fixed for the Monday, by which arrangement some of the men might have to pull eight or ten races in the afternoon, as the contests were all to be inlieats. This is gross mismanagement, and proves to the discerning pub- lic that the stewards know nothing about the business. The Tuesday's programme commenced at 12: 30, and had to finish at 7: 30, but instead of this the last race did not take place until nine o'clock, although the procession of the boats, which is anxiously looked for by the general public, was left out. Two of the Elswick crew pulled in the pair oar at 12: 30, and again in the four oar at nine o'clock, thus being exposed all that time in their boating clothes. All entries were to be made on Wednes- day, the 10th inst. Now it is a known fact that but few entries were then made, but mostly afterwards. Nil Desperandum was entered on the Wednesday for the skiff race, and, although it is well known that two or three Durham gentlemen had trained for the race, they did not enter, but having been informed by some official of Mr Pickett having entered, and fearing to stand their chance with him, they determined that the prize should fall through for want of entries. On the Monday morning there were one or two parties anxious to enter for the skiff prize, who were entirely unconnected with Mr Pickett, but the stewards would not allow it, although, on the following day, they allowed two parties to enter for the pair- oared race after the first edition of the cards had been circulated. This appears harsh towards the owner of Nil Desperandum, who must, of course, have trained some weeks, and would have the trouble, risk, and expense of his skiff being conveyed to Durham, and, after all, to be de- barred from any chance of winning the prize for which he has entered three consecutive years. Then with regard to the pair- oared race in the final heat, the friends of the Grammers' crew, seeing they had no chance to keep up with the L'Esperance, did all they could to obtain a foul, well knowing they stood a better chance than the strangers with the authorities. Very great dissatisfaction was also caused by the alteration in the Watermen's prizes, there beiug no seoond money given this year, thus deterring junior crews frora entering. Why is this ? Your kind insertion of this will much oblige your constant reader, A LOYEB OP FAIB PLAY. P. S.— If Wednesday was really the last day for entering crews, and the Nil Desperaudum being found to be the only one entered for the Ladies' Plate, and, consequently, there would be no race, would it not have been correct for one of the officials to have in- formed Mr Pickett, or the club of which he is a member, of the circumstance, and thus saved him all the unnecessary trouble and loss of time as well as risk of injury to his skiff ? WENTZELL'S ELEW REGATTA.— The first annual regatta at Kew, for prizes given by Mr Andrew Wentzell, of the Pier Tavern, Kew, and of the Ship, Lower Fore- street, Lambeth, who has for many years given silver prizes to be rowed for by trades- men at Lambeth, and has now established the same thing at Kew, came off on Monday, and at tracted a large concourse of spec- tators. The race was in three heats, which extended from the Pier Tavern to Barker's Rails up to Brentford Ferry, and finish at the Pier Tavern. The following were the. results:— First heat: Messrs Ayckbourn and Burrows ( white) 1, Messrs Bate and Mills sen ( yellow) 2, Messrs Hazlewood aud Mills jun ( dark blue) 0. White took the lead, followed closely by Yellow and Dark Blue • the latter two fouled, when White went away with the lead, and won as they liked.— Second heat: Messrs Baker and Knight ( pink) 1, Messrs Day and Jackson ( light blue) 2, Messrs Welder and Parker ( black) 0. Capital heat. It was an excellent start, all being together Black took up the lead and went away, when they and Light Blue fouled, Pink then went away and won by five or six lengths; there was a capital race between Light Blue and Black for the second place.— Grand heat: Messrs Day and Jackson ( light blue) 1, Messrs Baker and Knight ( pink) 2, Messrs Ayckbourn and Burrows ( white) 0, Messrs Bate and Mills sen ( yellow) 0. It was a beautiful start, at a clipping pace, all four boats being oar and oar to Barker's Rails, where they all rounded at almost the same moment. Light Blue got clear, well followed by Pink, but White and Yellow fouled. A fine race now began between Blue and Pink, Blue leadingtoKewBridge. Pink then took the outside arch, got a little in advance of their opponents, maintaining the lead to Brentford Ferry, where they unfortu- nately ran aground, which gave Blue the race. Pink, soon re- covering, came in second, two lengths behind the first pair. Mr D. Missing filled the office of umpire. SCULLEBS RACE BETWEEN FINNIS AND WADE.— Another below bridge scullers mateh took place on Thursdav. over the usual course from North Woolwich to Limehouse Hole. The competitors were James Finnis of Wapping and George Wade of Stone Stairs, Ratcliff- highway, the former staking £ 20 to Wade's £ 25. Wade's only previous performances were the defeat of Campion of Limehouse Hole in 1855, aud of George Rice of Limehouse in 1856. Finnis won Prince Albert's Coat and Badge at the Tower in 1851, the Tower boat in 1854, and Doggett's Coat and Badge the same year. In 1855 he rowed a capital race with Henry White, and was not defeated till close to the finish, and, last year, at the Royal Thames National Regatta, in the race with old- fashioned boats, he came in third. So greatly was Wade the favourite that money to any amount was laidou hira ; but a more hollow affair was never known. The Fairy, Captain Alcock, accompanied the race, being filled with spectators, while all along the course numbers were on the look out. Tom Graut having been chosen umpire for Wade, John Rae for Finnis, and Mr. T. Day referee, the men appeared at the starting- post, ac- companied bv their cutters, W. Bowton " coaching" Finnis and W. Skinner Wade. On going off, Finnis took the lead, and for the first mile there was some show of a race, but after that the leading man increased his advantage to ten or twelve lengths. At Blackwall Wade's friends now saw all was over. After this Finnis went clear away, and won as he liked. He trained him- self at Mr Hoole's, the Turk's Head, Union Stairs, Wapping. TEMPLE ALLIANCE ROWING CLUB.— The members of the Temple Alliance Rowing Club contested their first match of the season over the Mortlake water on Thursday. The race was a pair- oared one, in one heat, and was for three gold pins for the first boat, and three sets of gold studs for the second, the distance being from Mr Godfrey's, the Queen's Head, Mortlake, round a boat moored off Barker's Rails, aud back to the Queen's Head. In consequence of the fineness of the weather a very large party of the members and friends were drawn together to witness the match, including a large number of the fair sex. The race, which was one of the best pair- oared ones ever rowed, was umpired by Mr Godfrey, aud the following was the result :— Blue— Mr W. J. Branscombe, and Mr W. J. Nind, Mr E. Davis ( cox) 1; Orange— Mr J. Newell, and Mr R. White, Mr F. Nind ( cox) 2; Pink— Mr T, Mahon, and Mr W. Bewen, Mr J. A. Branscombe ( cox) 0. They went off at a slashing pace, all being together, soon after which Orange drew in advance, and kept the lead till turning at Barker's Rails, where they went round badly, and allowed Blue to pass them, the latter keeping a lead of about two lengths till they came to the Ship. Here Orange came up to the stroke oar of Blue, and in this position they re- mained all the way to the finish, Pink being only a length astern of the others. After this race the members contended for a handsome silver watch, liberally presented by Mr Godfrey. HAMMEBSMITH SUB8CBIPTION RBGATTA,— This regatta, to be rowed for by fishermen and landsmen of Hammersmith, will take place to- morrow ( Monday), June 29th, to commence at two o'clock, in heats ; to start from a boat moored off the Red Lion, down round a boat moored off the Queen's, up round a boat moored off Chiswick Ait, and finish at the place of starting.

LIABILITY OF STAKEHOLDEBS.— WOOLWICH COUNTY COUBT, JUNE 18.— PIKE V ALCOCK.— This case having been removed some months back, by writ of certiorari, to the superior court, on the application of the defendant, the plaintiff appeared be- fore his honour to ask information as to how he was to act in the matter, stating that he had only received a notice from the defendant's attorney to the effect that a writ had been obtained, and that the case would be tried by the superior court. The plaintiff pleaded ignorance of the law, and said he had been much annoyed of late by some printed bills posted about re- flecting upon his character ( one of which he handed to the judge). His honour said no doubt the author of such a bill could be punished if found out; but as regards the case, it had been taken out of his court for trial in one of the superior courts, and it was for the plaintiff to go on, or otherwise he would have to pay defendant's costs iu the superior court.— The plaintiff then left the court. pedestrianism.

That handicap foot- racing is rapidly on the increase in Lanca- shire, is, we opine, an incontrovertible fact, aud if the ancient adage be true, that " practice makes perfect," Mr Abraham At- teubury ought to be an adept in apportioning the respective distances of the competitors. This species of sport is deserving of every encouragement, because it tends to bring latent ability upon the course, and also furnishes an opportunity— especially au important one to the more needy pedestrian— of winning a large sum at a small risk. True, owing probably sometimes to extensive speculation on the result, the best man may not always, win ; but for this he, and not the system, is to blame; and whilst in such cases the pedestrian who so acts merits severe reprehen- sion, the promoter of the handicap probably deserves praise for his endeavours to bring the issue to a trial of pure skill. It may be said, and truly, that the same remark might justly be applied to some men who have engaged in matches, and whilst, for the honour of the vigorous sport, we regret the fact, still in running in heats it cannot be denied but that such disreputable practices are of more frequent occurrence. We are fully aware that many owners of pedestrian grounds spend much time and trouble in the arrangement of races of this description, aud therefore to them in particular, as well as to no inconsiderable portion of the publio who become witnesses of the events, it is exceedingly discouraging when the contests are not decided upon their merits. Here is the bane, but where is the antidote? The latter, we believe, would soon be found ( if generally applied), and thus, iu a great measure, the causo of complaint might be removed. If a man, for instance, be guilty of running a " Joey" let him be more unfavourably handicapped— say for six months— on every ground he may desire to compete, and thus, with a full knowledge of the penalty, pedestrians would cause these mal- practices to become " few and far between." It will be found, by the subjoined notice, that these remarks are not out of place. As faithful chroniclers ( we hops) of the sport, we have thrown out these hints with the best of feeling, inasmuch as we have previously said that this description of racing is rapidly on the increase in the north, and consequently it now becomes still more imperative that it should be decided in the fairest, most just, and strictly honourable manner. Having said this much by way of preface, we now proceed to notice another interesting handicap, which commenced on SATURDAY, JUNE 20.— The weather during the early part of the day was very inauspicious for out- door sports, but before the hour fixed for the first heat ( four o'clock) the sky cleared, and the afternoon and evening were fine. The prescribed dist- ance of the handicap we are about to notice was 170 yards, the first prize being £ 30, second £ 4, and third £ 1. For this event upwards of seventy men enrolled their names— among whom wure several of the most noted provincial pedestrians— and out of this number thirty accepted, being divided into ten lots, three men in each lot. There were about 1,500 spectators, and Mr Abraham Attenbury discharged the duties of referee. The fol- lowing is a brief notice of the heats, the sports commencing about naif- past four o'clock. Lot 1: W. Butterworth of Manchester, Hi yards start, first; C. Buckley of Sheffield, 13y> second ; T. Collinge of Jumbo, 54, third. The betting was 6 to 4 on Buckley, but Butterworth won by a yard and a half.— Lot 2 : G. Barber of Glossop, 8i yards start, first; J. Nolan of Manchester, 10£, second; W. Halliwell of Manchester, 14, third. For this heat Barber was backed against the field, and he won by a yard.— Lot 3 : J. Fairess of Prestwich, 15 yards start, first; T. Buckley of Bury Lane, 13, second. Fairess won by half a yard, though it was evidently that Buckley, if he had been so disposed, could have caused Mr Attenbury's decision to have been in his favour. — Lot 4: R. H. Knutton of Sutton, yards start, first; J, Lyons of Salford, 13, second ; G. Seward of Manchester, 12, third. Betting: Even on the field, though 5 to 4 would have been taken. Knutton proved the victor by a yard and a half.— Lot 5 : J, Booth of Newton Heath, five yards start, first; W. Walmsley of Manchester, 15, second ; G. Hall of Stalybridge, 16, third. Booth was backed against the field, and this pro- mising pedestrian achieved the victory somewhat easily, by two yards.— Lot 6: W. Hill of Kirkheaton, 11 yards start, first; J. Tilford of Manchester, 9, second. Betting: 2 to 1 on Telford; though Hill defeated him by a yard.— Lot 7: G. Kent of Woodenbox, 6 yards start, first; A. Bowler of Low Moor, York- shire, 13, second. Betting: 5 to 4 on Bowler. Kent won the heat by two yards — Lot 8: J. Gosling of Stockist, 13 yards start, first; W. Foster of Leeds, 9, second; G. Sellars of Maccles- field, 14, third. The betting was 6 to 4 on Forster, who dis- played rather too much confidence. One of his opponents, how- ever, determined ou this occasion not to exhibit the " white feather" pertaining to his name, and thus Gosling, though with some difficulty, carried off the palm by a breast only.— Lot 9 : J. Hancock of Salford, scratch, first; J. Mallinson of Manchester 15 yards start, second. Betting: 4 to 1 agst Hancock, who won the heat by half a yard.— Lot 10 : R. Grundy of Manchester, 13 yards start, first; T. Clay of Derby, 13, second; J. Newton of Holinwood, 11, third. Upon this issue a goodly sum was in- vested, the betting being even on Newton and 6 to 4 agst Clay, at which figure a well- known pedestrian from Oldham freely speculated the circulating medium on Newton. The veteran Dick Grundy, however, soon balanced the account, by being declared the winner by 3} yards. With this the day's sport was brought to a conclusion, and betting- books were then compared. From these it appeared that, when the names of the men en- gaged in the handicap were first published, speculation com- menced briskly at 10 tol on the field. Just prior to start Knut- ton was much fancied, though the betting was theu 4 to 1 on the field, 5 to 1 agst Lyons and Booth, 6 to 1 each agst Buckley, Kent, Grundy, and Barber, 8 to 1 each agst Bowler, Hill, Til- ford, and Newton, and 10 to 1 agst any other. MONDAY.— The afternoon was again beautifully fine, and some celebrated pedestrians having to contend, nearly 2,000 spectators were attracted to the scene of action. The residts were as follows:— Lot 1: Butterworth 1, Booth 2. Betting: 5 to 4 on Butterworth, who won by a yard.— Lot 2: Kent 1, Hill 2, Gosling 3. The betting was 6 to 4 agst Kent, but he won, after a good race, by a breist.— Lot 3: The celebrated J. Hancock walked over.— Lot 4: Knutton 1, Barber 2. Betting: 6 to 4 on Knutton, who ran in the winner by a yard. Lots were then drawn as to the order in which the four winners should run, and Dame Fortune decided that Hancock should cope against Burterworth, aud Kent with Knutton The sport was divested of some of its interest by the fact of Hancock allowing . Butterworth to walk over, whilst, at the same time, there is little doubt but that Hancock, if he had tried, could have easily first caught the eye of the referee.— Next came Kuutton and Kent to contend for priority, and we give a rumour to which some degree of truth may be attached, to the effect that Kent was offered £ 15 not to run against Knutton. We are glad to record ( and to Kent's honour be it said) that he spurned the offer, and declared that if beaten it should be ou his merits. Despite this, 2 to 1 was freely laid on Knutton, who defeated the plucky Kent of Woodeubox by a yard and a half. — Deciding heat: This sprint was expected to have brought to a closeShe All England Handicap, and Butterworth and Kuutton stripped and toed the mark, the betting being 6 to 4 on Butter- worth. This struggle for the first prize of £ 30 was a very ex- citing one, and the referee decided that it had ended in a dead heat! It was then agreed that the two men should again run at nine o'clock, and, at nearly an hour after, they once more faced the scratch, Butterwor th having three yards start of Knutton, and the investments 2 to 1 on the former. The non- favourite quickly got up to his opponent, and, after a brilliant contest, Knutton was declared to have won by half a yard. Thus he gained the " blue riband" of the Salford Borough Gardens, Butterworth, of course, obtaining the second honour (£ 4), and Kent of Woodenbox threw in for third place. Mr Abraham Attenbury merits a word of praise for the justness of his deci- sions, and also for the admirable way in which the course was kept. FOBSTEE AND GBUNDY.— Having now briefly noticed the handicap, we may remark upon another event, also decided to- day, the competitors being W. Forster of Leeds and R. Grundy of Manchester. The race was for £ 25 a side, and a wager of a similar amount, the distance agreed upon being 120 yards, and Grundy to have two yards start. Mr J. Holden filled the office of referee, and the betting at start was even on Grundy. The " old- un" kept the lead for 80 yards, when Foster came up, passed him, and won by a yard and a half. A HANDICAP for novices will take place on Saturday next, July 4, distance 140 yards ; first prize £ 1 10s, second 5s, third 2s 6d.

DOINGS AT HYDE PARK, SHEFFIELD, AND THE NEIGHBOURHOOD. MONDAY, JUNE 22.— To- day the weather was all that could be desired, and we should say, at the lowest computation; there were not less than 2,700 spectators present to witness the sports, MR JOHN SANDERSON'S HANDICAP.— This was a handicap race of a quarter of a mile for money prizes amounting to £ 18, given by Mr John Sanderson, mine host of the Butchers' Arms, Bath- street, Sheffield.

Garfitt won by five yards ; Joseph Shear- stone, who had 61 yards start, fell heavily close to the finish when he was second, which caused Beal to obtain that place.— Lot 8, at a quarter to six : Samuel Taylor 63 yards, 1; George Westerman 69, 2. Six ran. Taylor won a capital race by four yards; Westermau second; the others were close up at the finish. TUESDAY.— There was a great number of spectators present this day to witness the pigeon shooting and the deciding heat for the handicap race. The sports commenced with a match fat £ 10 between Mr John Heliiwell, farmer, of Reynold House, near Oughtbridge, and Mr John Duffin, innkeeper, Localfields, near Sheffield, at 10 birds each, 21 yards rise, lioz of shot, the rails boundary. The match ended in a tie, both killing six. Another match is, we understand, on the tapis, for £ 20, The grouud was now cleared for THE DECIDING HBAT FOR MB SANDEBSON'S HANDICAP.— About five o'clock the eight successful competitors made their appearance on the ground, and took their stations at their re- spective marks to ruu off for the prizes. A great deal of betting took place at the following prices:— Even on Bake against the field, 2 to 1 agst Garfitt, 2 to 1 agst Taylor, 12 to 1 agst Booth, 16 to 1 against Coward and Law, and 20 to 1 agst Carr and Kelsey, They came in as follows :— Allen Bake 66 yards, 1, £ 15; Thomas Law 2, £ 2; Arthur Garfitt 69 yards, 3, £ 1.

Messrs W. Bailey, J. Gregory, and C. Cold well killed all and divided the money, £ 6. WEDNESDAY.— Au off- hand race took place in the presence of a tidy sprinkling of the right sort between John Parkin and John Beal. Both men had 70 yards start iu Mr Sanderson's 440 yards handicap ou Monday, and both ran second in their heats, aud they met ou the same terms, having 370 yards to run. Parkin, who was the favourite, made a waiting race of it, went in front on the straight run home, and won by about three yards, ENTBIES FOR MB JAMES PHOINII'S HANDICAP RACE, once round Hyde Park, on Monday aud Tuesday, July 6th and 7th.

PEDESTRIANISM AT BIRMINGHAM AND DISTRICTS. BULLOCK AND WHEELEB.— At Aston Cross Grounds, near Birmingham, on Monday last, these well- known men met to run their six score yards match for £ 10 a side, Wheeler giving a sovereign for the race to come off at Birmingham. Tiie weather was splendid, yet there was but a thin attendance of spectators, which may be accounted for by a report having got abroad that the affair was not square. Mr Price, of Worcester- street, Bir- mingham, was the stakeholder, aud according to articles was to have appointed a referee, but he did not attend, owing, it was said, to illness. Mr Wilson was therefore agreed upon to act in his place ; and he states that when he accepted the office, he was not aware of the reports in circulation ; nor did he hear of it until the men were on the start, too late to withdraw from the post of referee. The men totally deuy that there was any under- standing between them, and that each did his best to win. To all appearance, each man looked in first- rate trim, aud betting commenced at 5 to 4 on Bullock, and ' < » d guineas to pounds on Wheeic * " ' " the n the en spectii and h?

SHAW of Stanley ran their match of 200 yards, for £ 25 a side, on Saturday, the 20th iust, at Park Side Grounds, Hunslet, near Leeds, Bowler re- ceiving six yards start. They met on the ground at six o'clock, when the betting commenced at evens, Bowler for choice, but when the men got stripped on the scratch Shaw became the favourite, at 2 to 1. After remaining at the mark fifteen minutes, it was agreed to go by the first report of a pistol. When every- thing was arranged, the pistol was fired, Bowler getting the best of the start and when they had run half the distance he was leading by seven yards. At this point Shaw began to draw a little on his man, and when they were 50 yards from the finish^ he had reduced the distance to four yards, but here Bowler put on the steam, and ran in a winner by five yards. Shaw was much distressed at the finish. BARRETT AND LEWIS.— The spin of 100 yards, for £ 5 a side, between C. Barrett of Bethnal Green and J. Lewis of Stratford, came off, as announced, on Monday last, at Garratt Lane, Wandsworth.

Lewis can have the stakes by calling at our office on Thursday next, at twelve o'olock. A RACE of 150 yards, for £ 10, came off on Tuesday last, at Garratt- lane; between Thomas Norman and J.

Hosspool of Bradford in reply to the challenge from John Saville of Oldham, informs him that lie is prepared to adhere to the stipulations of the champion's belt which he won in London, but as those stipulations were only to contend in London, Hospool thinks that it is a piece of presumption on the part of Saville to challenge him to run for the belt at Manchester. However Hosspool will accommodate Saville with a race of one mile according to the conditions of the belt, or will run him one mile at Hyde Park, Sheffield, for £ 50 a side, on the Monday in Doncaster race week.

By sending £ 5 to Bell's Life, and articles to the Prince Albert Inn, Wellington road, New Wortley, a match can be made.

Following the great Fight for the Championship, duly recorded in our last, was the encounter between the above men, which had to be brought to a decision on Tuesday, on the " Home Circuit." The natch, though not producing anything like that all- absorbing interest that wa3 taken in the big event of the preceding week, had, nevertheless been looked forward to with much pleasure by the metropolitan admirers of the art. Brookes, it will be borne in mind, is a native of Norwich, and first dis- played his milling qualifications on the 20fch December, 1854, when he defeated Tom Tylor, for £ 20 a side, in 50 rounds, occupying one hour and 30 minutes. He next met and defeated one Reeves, for £ 10 a side, at Mildenhall, winning this contest cleverly in 38 rounds, and 55 minutes. He then fought Jack Hicks, to whom he had to strike his flag, after 41 rounds had beea gamely fought, in 110 minutes, On the 6th of May, 1856, Jem's last appearauce in the P. R., prior to the present contest, was with Ingram, whom he placed hors de combat in one hour and 65 minutes, during which 47 rounds were gamely contested. Dan Morris, in comparison with his opponent, is little more than an untried man, having only appeared once within the ropes with Samuel Smith, brother to the renowned Regent- street Pet ( the pedestrian and trainer), whom he defeated in good style, iu eight rounds, the contest not lasting more than 28 minutes. This event was for £ 25 a side, anil took place at Triug on the lst of April, 1856. Morris was horn at Barnet in 1836, and was backed from Dan Dismore's, the King's Arms, Sniart's- buildings, Holborn. In weight, the belligerents were confined to 8st 81b, and on Mon- day they went through the ceremony of goirg to scale at Mr Short's, the Leaping Bar, Old- street- road. Both men on being tried were found to be just within the mark. By the ostensible backers of the men, Messrs Short and Dismore, an aquatic trip was agreed upon, the start on the morning of Tuesday taking place fromBlaekwall. A debarkation was effected on the Kentish marshes, at the same place where Bob Travers and Job Cob' ley fought thir ever memorable battle; and here Fred Oliver, in the absence of Ould Tom, formed the ring, but when he had completed these arrangements, there appeared to us to be a deal of unnecessary time taken up before the combatants made their appearance within the ropes. Brookes had for his seconds, Alf Walker and Jemmy Welsh, while Bill Hayes and Bob Travers did the polite for Morris, who, in betting, was the favourite at 6 and 7 to 4. On peeling, the combatants showed in magni- cent condition, and it was remarked round the ring that it would have been impossible for two lads to have been in all respects more thoroughly up to the mark. On their frames nought was to be seen but bone and muscle, and to Charles Jen- kinson, who trained Brookes, the greatest credit is due for the care and attention he bestowed upon the sturdy little champion. By one o'clock the combatants had received the finishing touch from their seconds. THE FIGHT. Round 1. No sooner bad the belligerents been left alone, than they put themselves into very artistic attitudes, Brookes, in his bearing, displaying all the cool nonchalence of an old general, while Morris, on the other hand, appeared more cautious. After a little sparring, Jem let fly with tha left, and planted a heavy hit on the chest, and followed up this advantage with another heavy spank with the right. Dan, in getting away, got to his corner, when he was pursued by his opponent, and after some further quick deliveries, he went down smiling. 2. Brookes came at once from his corner, and, on being faced by his antagonist, they immediately commenced operations. Jem, after dashing out with both mawleys, and planting a stinger with the left on the head, closed with his man, when Dan fibbed away with the utmost spirit until they got to the ropes. Here a desperate struggle eusued, which terminated in both going down. 3. Jem, who came up smiling and confident; at once went to his man, following Morris up as he broke ground. After getting well within distance, Brookes administered the left on the body, and got cleverly away from his adversary's returns. After a change of position, they again got together, when both got home in the counter- hitting, Jem, however, appearing to do the most execution. In a close the beligerents got to the ropes, when, after a sharp struggle, both went down. At this moment much confusion prevailed in Dan's corner ; the ring- keepers, instead of doing their duty, acttd as partisans of the men. 4. Brookes planted the left slightly on his man's knowledge- box, when Dan, after hitting out in an ineffective manner, slipped and went down. 5. After a little sparring, Brookes dashed out the left, but did no execution. A p& use. Both stood for a moment looking at each other. They soon recommenced operations, Brookes ^ ettiag the left well on the body; this was followed by some prjtty counters near the ropes, Jem administering a tell- tale oa the cheek, while Dan came with a flush hit on the kissing trap. As Jem retreated Morris followed, andagaiu were the exchanges of a heavy description. Brookes, on breaking ground, and biiug near his own corner, wanted to close the round; but, as tiiis was ob- jected to by Dan's seconds, he again went to his opponent with a smiling mug, and, after some more exchanges, they elosed, when Dan went to grass. [ First blood was claimed for Morris, but was not admitted by the referee, though certainly we fan- cied we saw something like the " ruby " visible from Jem's mouth.] 6. Jem, after putting out a feeler, got well within distance, when the combatants countered heavily, Brookes planting the left on the side of the nob, and Dan doing execution on the top part of his antagonist's dial. Jem now tried to close, but Morris slipped, and went down. 7. This was a plucky and well- fought rouud. No sooner had the lads met than they went at it in ding dong fashion, the exchanges being well and fairly delivered, though unquestionably in favour of Brookes, who appeared to get home with tre mendous force. The lads had a slight rally to the ropes, when Dan, to avoid the close, slipped, and went down on his knees. 8. Morris altered his tactics, and led, but the intended com- pliment was harmless, not being within distance. He instantly followed up with the right, and planted a rouser on the body. Jem stood and fought in the most unflinching style, his ex- changes being well placed, and had all the appearauce of doing considerable execution, for Morris went down like a man who had been heavily hit. 9. The fighting from the commencement had been sharp work; therefore, on such a piping day, it was but natural the lads should stand in need of a little breathing. When time was called they came readily up, but on getting to the scratch they made a dead pause for a time. At length Dan took the initiative delivered the left on the body, while Brookes, in return, lunged out with the right, but just missed giving his opponent a tre- mendous stinger. Morris, with more precipitancy than judg- ment went to his corner, and as Brookes came dashing in, got down on his knees. 10. Brookes, in the exchanges, planted both mawleys on his opponent's nob, and closed near the ropes, when, after some sharp half- arm fighting, they struggled for the fall. Morris, however, finding he could not get the best of it, slipped and got away, but while on one knee Brookes made a spank at him with the right, but did not get home, as Dan cleverly ducked his nob. 11. Jem administered a regular " Darby Kelly" on the ribs, and got well away from the returns of liis opponent. In some quick and prettily- delivered exchanges Brookes did execution on the dial, but knapped a good dose of punishment in return. At last Dan, to avoid, went down. 12. Jem planted the left slightly, and stopped a well- intended compliment from Dan. After a little artful manoeuvering, they got well together, when some rattling exchanges with both mawleys followed, Dan, who had received the lion's share, getting down near his corner. 13. Brookes got home slightly with the left on the head, when Dan, who appeared to have hardly shaken off the effects of counter- hitting in the preceding bout, went down. 14. Brookes, who trod the ring like a man confident of victory, went immediately up to his man, and in the exchanges delivered a rattling hit on Dan's left peeper, when the latter went down, bleeding from an awkward- looking cut. 15. Jemmy Welsh had his man ready before time was called. Jem, the instaut he had been faeed by his opponent, went to work in the most spirited manner, getting home some rattlers with the left and right. Morris, who fought gamely, did not do any execution in the returns, and on getting near the ropes he went to grass. 16. Jem, forcing the fighting, at once went to work, planting the left twice in succession on the head. Dan in countering gave a sharp " canton" on the pepper- castor, when, Jem giianing, rushed in for the close, and threw his man rather heavily. 17. Dan came up looking fresher and stronger than could have been anticipated. Jem, after one or two feelers, dashed out a rasper on the body ; in stepping back he slipped and fell on his knee, when Dan instantly put the hug on him, from which pre- dicament Brookes extricated himself by going to grass. 18. Good telling Counters with both mawleys on the brain canister in favour of Jem, when Dan went down. 19. Morris once more tried the lead, and gave a pretty left- hander on the dial, Brookes acknowledging the compliment by a stinging thwack from the right. In a rally they got to the ropes, when Jem managed to get on them, and iu the struggle Dan threw him a cross- buttock. 20. Jem delivered a brace of enliveners on the body, when Dan, after returning slightly on the nob, broke ground, and to prevent the close went down. 21. This round was well and gallantly fought, the combatants standing to their work with the most fearless determination ; the exchanges left and right were well delivered, and appeared to do considerable execution. As Dan at length attempted to retreat he was followed impetuously by Jem, who administered the right on the ribs, when Morris went down. 22. Brookes made the fighting, and got home with effect on the upperworks. Dan, who seemed to be a little abroad, did not administer his returns with any force, and as a finish he was thrown, though not heavily. 23. Morris got home slightly with the left on the nob, and as he retreated Brookes came dashing in, when, after some further half- arm hitting, Dan got down on his knees. 24. Dan, who appeared to have recovered himself wonderfully in the last rouud or so, made the fighting, and gave the right mawlev well on the body. Brookes countered with his opponent in good style, and both went down in a harmless manner. 25. Brookes short with the left, and Morris doing no execution from the same cause. As Jem shifted his position Dan followed, but knapped it heavily from the left and right on the head and ribs. Iu the exchanges the men got to the ropes, and both went down in the struggle. 26. Brookes gave the right heavily on the breast, and received a tidy spank on the ribs from the left. In the counter- hitting Brookes delivered the left on the smeller, and again repeated the dose of cayenne with effect. A rally to Morris's corner, and Dan down, bleeding. 27. Morris, after being twice out of distance, received more heavy punishment on the nose, but in return countered magnifi- cently with his man, Brookes going down near the ropes, having a shade the worst of the round. 28. This was another splendid. round. Brookes, in the counters, planted the left slick on his opponent's eyebrow, cutting it rather severely, and, after some sharp and merry fighting, the lads in a rally getting in Dan's corner, Brookes went down. 29. Brookes again home with the right on the eye, giving his opponent a clean knock down blow. 30. Sharp work. Morris wanting time, and Brookes eager to renew the contest. The exchanges all in favour of J em, and Dan down. 31. Brookes again delivered the left and right, and Morris again down. 32. Jem went up to his man and forced the fighting, the hit- ting being all iu his favour. At the ropes they closed, and went down, Dan being under. 33. Brookes administered the left and right, and Dan, whose returns were but slightly placed, and totally ineffective, west down in the middle of the ring. 31. Dan receiving pleuty of time, but on coming up was at once met by Jem, who planted the left on the nob, when Dan went down. 35. Jem again home with force with the left, when Dan went down iu the middle of the ring, all of a heap, evidently being very weak. 36. Bill and Boh working for their man like Trojans, yet friz- zing iu the sun like toasted possum fat. Dan had required all their attention ; but in this rouud he came up greatly recovered, led with the left in good style, getting on Jem's right peeper, and, after some spirited exchanges, went down. 37. Jem's left aud right well placed on the head, Dan return- ing with effect, and, to aveid the close, went down. 38. Brookes, iu the counters, gave his opponent another rat- tler with the left, when Morris went down. 39. Jem planted the left on the body, and repeated the dose with the right on the mouth, when Dan went to grass in his own corner without a return. 40. In the exchanges Brookes planted heavily on his man, when Dan went down. Thus far have we gone into minute details of the contest, and, having given by far the most spirited and interesting portloa of it, all that remains to be told may be done very briefly. As the contest progressed Brookes appeared to have it more and more in his own hands, and the only remarkable circumstance in con- nection with his fighting is, that he had not greater finishing qualifications ; for, hid he possessed this power, he certainly must, despite all the " fiddling of the talents," have brought the contest to a very speedy conclusion. That during the latter por- tion of the fight, aud in several of the rounds— aud not many of them beyond what we have recorded were worthy to be called such— Morris went down without a blow being struck must be admitted, and, strictly speaking, acoording to the rules of the lUng, he unquestionably lost the fight; still, on appealing to the referee, his decision was, amidst the prevailing confusion, " fight on." The office Nat Langham held was certainly by no means an enviable one, and, because he did not decide any of the numerous appeals made to him on the part of Brookes, he was accused by the East Enders of being prejudiced against their man. Nothing we admire more than to see a fight fairly decided on its merits, but still the rules of theP. R. become a perfect farce if they are to be in all things totally disregarded. That Morris is a game lad there can be no question, and it is equally certain that his resorting to the dropping system was quite under advice, it being requisite for him, by hook or by crook, to husband his strength, as Brookes was so much his superior. The tediousness of the rounds, from what we have stated, may be more readily imagined than described, aud so weak did Morris at times appear, that all it required, to our thinking, was a good rouud or two to finish, but Brookes towards the last did not appear to have sufficient " steam" in his blows, for although he hit his man often apparently very hard, yet the blow did not make the impression that aright have been expected. Ia the whole 104 rounds, occupying two hours and forty- five minutes, were fought, when the police made their appearance, aud at once put a stop to hostilities. This interference of the " blues," who, it was stated, had been pur- posely fetched, was a fine gat out for the backers of Morris, for although in the last few rounds Dan had recovered himself a little, yet we think there can be no second opinion entertained about the result. After getting on board, another spot was chosen for the renewal of hostilities; but, as well as we oould make out from the confusion that prevailed and roar of many tongues, Laugham refused to stand referee again, and by this means much \ ahiable time was unquestionably wasted. At length, however, he did consent to go ashore again with the men, but while he was iu the act of doing so the police once more arrived, so that the ropes and stakes had again to be put on beard. To recount a tithe of what was said pro and con, would occupy more space than we can possibly spare, therefore we may briefly say that it was arranged that their next meeting ( this being Langham's decision) should take place this day ( Saturday). And thus, with a late arrival in the metropolis, terminated the contest for the present between these men. We have since the fight received numerous letters from eye- witnesses of the battle, descanting upon the want of firmness on the part of the referee m not deciding in favour of Brookes, and also in refusing to go ashore at the second ring, where the fight might have beeu concluded before the police arrived. Nat, how- ever, declares to us that he was afraid of being nailed by the Blues, and thereby be compelled to forfeit toCaunt. Wemustsay we think he would have done better to have declined acting at all, rather than to have accepted office, and then throw it up at the most critical period, when, as we are credibly informed, a few minutes would have decided the affair. It has been stated to us that the police were sent for by the friends of Morris, on purpose to save their money. No evidence, however, has been adduced on this subject to show that Dan Dismore, or any one who found money for Morris, was in any way concerned in the transaction, and although it is pretty clear that they were sent for by some persons who had mouey on, still it would be hard that Dismore and other innocent persons should suffer. Had the fact been brought home to any actual backer of Morris we should unquestionably have awarded the money to Brookes. THE LATE FIGHT FOR THE CHAMPIONSHIP. On Monday a gentleman appointed by the stakeholder attended at Nat Langham's, for the purpose of handing over to Tom Sayersthe produce of his well- earned victory of the previous Tuesday, but the evening passed off in anything but a satisfac- tory manner, owing to the absence of the Champion, who, owing to unforeseen circumstances of a private nature, was unavoid- ably Drevented, on the very threshold, from making his appear- ance." All his friends were there, however, as was also the Tipton Slasher. The representative of the stakeholder handed over the possibles to the gentleman appointed by Sayers to receive them, aud expressed his regret that the bold Champion was not present to be girded with the champion's belt, with which he was provided. He said the whole amount had not yet been raised to pay for the trophy, there being £ 10 short, but as the stakeholder had received the balance from Tom's prin- cipal backer on condition that the amount should be repaid to him if made up at any time to the treasurer, he was prepared to handover the belt on receiving a guarantee that Sayers would give it up if defeated within three years. Tom's backer at once consented to sign the guarantee, and, this ceremony performed, the belt was handed over into his keeping. A subscription was then raised in the room for the Slasher, which was headed with £ 5 from Tom Sayers, and amounted in the aggregate to £ 17 5s. We cannot conclude our connection with this match without alluding to sundry letters we have re- ceived during the past week, commenting on Tom's method of fighting. It has been called unfair, unmanly, and we do not know what else besides, and all sorts of absurd arguments have been offered why it should not be allowed. Our correspondents appear to forget that Sayers did not attempt to get down throughout the battle— that there v. as not a shadow of a claim of forfeit, aud although he did run about the ring he was always ready to face his opponent when it was necessary to do so. In showing such quickness as he did upon his pius, he displayed one of the chief qualifications of a clever boxer. The late Mr Jackson, the most scientific demonstrator of the art, always held that a man who could not use his legs as well as his arms was not half a boxer, and no one can doubt that Sayers displayed this qualification in the highest degree. We have also received letters on the subject of the Slasher's fighting, to which we may answer that in farcing the milling as he did, he fought strictly according te the orders of those who found his money. Had he adopted his own tactics, there can be little, doubt that he would have stood to await the attack, and countered his man as he came in. The old fellow is of course much hurt at bis defeat, and hopes yet to make one more appearance before his final retirement. No man likes to leave off a loser, and his friends, one and all, will wish him success in his next encounter, which we should say will be positively his last appearauce, let whoever may be bis opponent. We have to acknowledge the sum of £ 2 from E. W. towards the belt, which shall be handed over to the gentleman who ad- vanced the £ 10. TOM SAYERS AGAIN MATCHED. SAYERS AND CAUNT,— It will be recollected that last week Tom Paddock and Ben Caunt both challenged Tom Sayers to meet them in single combat for the Championship. Caunt staked £ 10 in our hands, but Paddock merely indicated the place where his money was ready. On Friday Sayers called at our office and covered the £ 10 staked by Ben Caunt, and agrees to fight Ben on his own terms, win or lose with Langham. Tom says he will meet Caunt at our office on Thursday next, between twelve^ and two, to draw articles. He has also requested us to inform Paddock that his reason for not accepting his challenge first was that he thought it well to nail Ben Caunt while his m © ney was down, in case he should hereafter repent of his rash offer. Sayers promises Tom Paddock that, should Caunt not go on, he will be very happy to accommodate him, or he will fight him after his match with Caunt, win or lose with that worthy. As he has fought three hard battles within six months, he wants a little breathing time at present, or he would meet Pad- dock before fighting Caunt. ALF WALKER AND SMITH.— Iu this match the fourth deposit of £ 5 a side was to have been made on Tuesday at Mr Smith's, Spread Eagle, Rotherhithe, but Walker did not put in an ap- pearance and Smith claimed forfeit. Walker called at our office the following morning and left his money, stating that he had been down at the fight and had not reached town early enough to make his deposit good. We have since seen Smith, and told him how the matter stood, impressing upon him that it was only by accident that Walker's money was not forthcoming. Smith, however, insisted on his bond, and declares he will have the for- feit, but that he is quite ready to make a fresh match. Of course, according to the strict letter of the law, he is right in his claim; but it must be apparent to any real admirer of fair play that he could not have intended to fight or he would never have seized upon such an opportunity to creep out of the match. He oan ( unless he repents in the meautime) have the money on applica- tion at our office on Tuesday morning, and iu future we must decline holding money for any match iu which he may be en- gaged. We are determined in future to give no quarter in these cases of " snatched verdicts." TED ROBERTS AND JEMMY WELSH OF BIRMINGHAM.— These men, who were matched to fight for £ 50 a side, on the 4th of August, have come under the especial notice of the authorities at Birmingham, and are bound over in £ 100 each with two sureties of £ 50 each, to keep the peace for twelve months. Roberts was first arrested, and after he had put in bail Welsh, it appears, told him that he believed the interference was his ( Roberts's) doing, and a row ensued between them, and a turn up was the result, in which eight or nine rounds were fought. The consequence of this was that Welsh was taken into custody and bound over in the same sum as Roberts. COBLEY AND BRETTLE.— These men have forwarded their deposit of £ 10 a side to us, instead of posting it at Alec Keene's, Three Tuns. Moor- street. Alec hopes in future no deposits will be named to be made at his domicile unless the parties actually intend to be present. The next deposit of £ 10 a side is to be made at Mr Parsou's, Ockley Hill, Birmingham, on the 30thiust. BEN CAUNT AND NAT LANGHAM.— Another deposit of £ 10 a side for this great match was made on Tuesday at Ben Caunt's, Coach and Horses, St Martin's- lane.

Lillywhite and Wisden, which, if brought into general use, will greatly facilitate the labours of secretaries of clubs in preparing matches for publication in our columns, and likewise will save us much valuable time in getting them ready for the printer. It should be observed that they are not intended for scoring papers ( though they might be used as such), but merely for results. They are published at an ex- tremely low figure, in order that they may be in the reach of all Secretaries are requested to notice an advertisement in another column, and in making an application for them, to ask for Bell's Life in London Score Sheet.

Anderson, J. Cassar, H. Stephenson, J. Jackson, A. Clarke, E. Hinkly, G. Parr, T. Adams, A. Mynn Esq. LOUGHBOROUGH.— Lord Stanhope, Capt Bromley, A. C, Phillips Esq, Rev A. Stone, W. E. White Esq, R.

This match, made by Mr Dark, was played at Lord's on Monday and Tuesday last, and owing to the M. C. C. and Rugby having to play on Wednesday the game was allowed to continue after the usual time of drawing the stumps. It fell to our lot a short time back to make known to our readers the then bad condition of the wickets, a report which eame as much from the players and the public as from our own judgment; it is, however, our duty this week to state that two better wickets were never prepared, and it gives us a much greater amount of pleasure to praise than to find fault. Our readers may be perfectly assured that we shall always give them the real state of things, to the best of our knowledge, though in doing so we may unintentionally make some enemies. The wickets were good— cricket not so. We have seldom seen looser bowling ( we mean by the amateurs), or the same lass punished by the professionals. The match excited im- mense interest, for, like the Oxonians, the Cantabs are very anxious to beat the professors; this, however, is not likely ever to happen until they command better bowlers. Their fielding, taking it altogether, was very good, and the batting of Mr Ham- mond really splendid, especially as the bowling of Wisden and Griffiths was so good in the first innings. In the second nothing could have surpassed Caffyn and Wisden, which the small score of so excellent a team of bats will alone speak for. Score: CAMBRIDGE. lst inn 2d inn C.

This match was played at Eton on Wednesday, June 24, The Quidnuncs, rather behind in the first innings, retrieved their fortune in the second.

Messrs Deacon and Dupuis, on behalf of the Quidnuncs, showed that they had not forgotten the lesson learnt in olden days on the same ground.

OLD Y PRESENT CHELTENHAM COLLEGIANS. This annual match was played at Cheltenham, on Monday, the 22d inst. We cannot refrain from recording the general re- gret that was expressed on account of the absence of Mr M. Kempsou. This is the first match between Old and Present Col- legians in which Mr Kempson has not played. That gentleman, we regret to say, is in India, His name, however, is always mentioned with reverence on the College Ground, and if this meets his eye it may be gratifying to him to learn that on this occasion many were the expressions of high regard used towards him. Even without his aid the Old Collegians made a good fight against the best eleven the College has ever produced. Score : OLD COLLEGIANS. lst inn 2d inn C. Hornby, b Ashton 28 b Liddle 0 G.

This important match was played on the beautiful ground at Brammall- lane, Sheffield, on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday last. The enterprising George Parr got up the match on his own responsibility, and gathered together such a team from his native county as to carry the victory of the day. It was tlie general remark that the Nottinghamshire were capable of con- tending against any other county iu England, and it seemed „ o be wondered why those who are at tke head of crioketin . Not- tingham did not arrange for more county matches to be played. Such an eleven as were brought to Sheffield are calculated, U not to beat, to play a very close game with any of the cricketing counties. Umpires : For Nottingham, Gaorge Anderson; for Sheffield, George Martin. We have only space for the score: SHEFFIELD. 1st inn 2dinn J. Thompson, b Jackson 11 bTinley ° W. Prest, Esq, c Brown. bJ.

CALDECOURT.— This once celebrated cricketer died suddenly on Sunday evening last, and, we regret to say, has left his family totally unprovided for. We have received a most touching appeal from his daughter ( who has also lately lost her husbaad), and we trust that, notwithstanding the numerous calls which of late have been made on the charitable, something may be done to remove immediate want. Surely these cases will redouble the energies of those who are moving in favour of the Cricketers' Fund. DBATH OF BROWN, THE CELEBRATED SUSSEX CRICKETER.

Owissg to its being fixed at at the close of the week we are not able to give much more than the results of the first day, but in a later edition we hope to be able to give the termination of the sports. This is the nine teenth regatta which has taken place since its foundation in 1839, and we believe; no place can boast of such uninter- rupted success; a success which can never depart so long as gentlemen determine to make it their acknowledged arena of championship, which the numerous advantages the place pos- sesses over all its less fortunate rivals will always ensure ; and the opening of the branch line of railway from Twyford will henceforth afford au additional faoility to those whom want of time used frequently to keep away. To the town of Henley, at other times, we imagiue this new line will be of the utmost im- portance, as likely to revive again the ancient days when the Lion at the foot of the Bridge supplied by the numerous four horse coaches that ran through to Oxford, Cheltenham, and other places, was the constant resort of the angler, and those who can be content with the quiet yet unrivalled beauties of the valley of the Thames. The present regatta bill of fare presented a list of entries some- what meagre in appearance; but yet it must hardly be regarded as a falling off, since there was every probability of all the rowing being first- rate and most of the races being well contested. Besides which, there was the unusual interest occasioned by the meeting of the London men with one of the Universities, an event which has not happened of late years, but which we hope will now be more frequent; it was also the maiden essay of the London Rowing Club. Almost at cock- crow the busy hum and note of preparation sounded for the event; but to describe the various little details would but be again travelling over the ground which we have so often trod before, there being no incident of novelty save the advantage of reaching Henley direct by rail, instead of encoun- tering the dusty road. As usual, the bridge was thronged with equipages of the nobility and gentry of the neighbourhood, and the Right Hon Lord Camoys, the president of the regatta, with his family, and other persons of distinction, were in the Grand Stand. At the meeting at the Town Hall, before the commencement of the races, Mr Nind, Mr Meade Kind, Mr Chitty, Mr Macnaghten, and Mr F, Play ford were all put in nomination for the office of umpire, and their names submitted to the com- petitors, who expressed themselves quite agreeable to be bound by the decision of either. Mr H. Playford, in a very becoming tone, thought it would be better that his brother, under the circumstances, should not be the gentleman ohosen; but upon Mr F. Playford being pressed to accept the onerous post, he kindly consented. Friday's programme differed from that of the usual first day in this material particular, that there were no trial heats. Chester, the holder of two of the cups, having retired, and left an open field, as also had the Argonauts, in consequence of the dissolution of that club. Each race was therefore finally determined, and the programme gave three contending crews for the Wyfold Challenge Cup, two for the Stewards', two for the Ladies' Challenge Plate, and two competitors for the Dia- mond Challenge Sculls, Mr James Paine being the challenger against Mr Casamaior, the holder; to which was added a local four- oared race. The sport commenced at three o'clock, and was continued at half- hourly intervals, beginning with— THE WYFOLD CHALLENGE CUP ( for four- oared boats).

They always had one stake, £ 25, but on this occasion we played for £ 100 stakes. I was not at that time in- debted to a gentleman £ 13,000 which he was pressing me for, and threatening me if I did not pay it. I did not lose £ 13.000 to a colonel at Manchester at " blind hookey." I had lost a large sum to the cousin of Colonel . I believe I lost over £ 10,000, and I paid half of it down, and gave a note for the difference, which I paid. The balance was outstanding; but I thmk I was not being pressed for the balance when I went to the Berkeley. I paid it two years after. They did not threaten to expose me and go to my father if I did not pay it. My father did not know of it. I have also played at the rooms at Don- oaster and Newmarket. I also played at Stockbridge, near Winchester. 1 was staying there with some frieuds. That was three or four years ago. I believe it was last September three years. I have played in private at my own house. I have ten or twelve hunters in Leicestershire. I did not keep a cook at £ 508 a year. I had not a French cook. The de- fendant offered to raise me a loan OH my property, aud I sent him a low valuation of it. That was about two years ago. I am a good player at billiards. I never played a match of above £ 10. I never said I would play a match with a young man at Brighton for £ 1,000, who did not know how well I could play, and he ( the defendant) should be there to see and I would tell him ( de- fendant) what o'clock it was. At the Berkeley th& re were some dice, from which the player chose. I bought counters to play with, and paid for them with an I O U. I did not exchange my residue of counters for cash. I don't recollect that I ever had any counters left. I always played till they were all gone. Some or these checks may have been given for outstanding bills. The check of the 23d of May, 1851, for £ 1,000, I believe was given for an IO U. I have often asked the defendant to hold over my bills. I have received back my bills when I gave renewals and when I discharged them. I have not kept so regular an account of my gaming transactions as of my cotton business ; I wish I had. Whatever bills I bad which I have not destroyed I have given to my solicitor. I do not think I have kept all the bills which have been discharged by payment. Since the action of Culverwell against me the defendant has returned to me tws warrants or attorney and one bill of exchange, because there wore actions brought against him for them by my solicitor on my behalf. I filed a bill iu Chancery in January last. Culver- well s action was tried in November. Since the bill in Chancery I have had back from the defendant all the securities I knew he had. ( sooner than go into court he gave notice that he would give them up. One warrant had been assigned to Bennett, and there was au issue to be tried, whether it was not given for money lost at play, and whether Bennett kr. ew of it. That also was delivered up. On the 4th of August, 1852, 1 cashed a check of the defendant's for £ 1,165, and on the 11th of April, 1854, one for £ 195. He had received £ 1,200 far me from Davis. Davis used to pay or receive for me at Tattersall's, Re- examined by Mr JAMES: I have lost in all to defendant £ 25,000. The defendant had transferred to Bennett a warrant of attorney given to defendant for money lost at play, in order that Bennett might enforce it. The bill in Chancery stated that it was given for money lost at play, and an assue was directed to be tried before Lord Campbell, to see whether it was so or not. I was prepared to try it, and Bennett struck and gave up the warraut. These seven checks have nothing to do with any warrant of attorney which has been given up, nor with any of " the bills which have been cancelled. They are for money lost at hazard beyond the securities which had been given up. The party at Manchester consisted of five or six. At Stockbridge there was a party at " chicken hazard." I paid what I lost. Eaeh player at the game of hazard has a right to ask for fresh diee. By a juror: I may have won at some time duriiag the night, but I never left the house a winner. I paid the check drawn in favour of Woodcroft to the defendant. Lord CAMPBELL : Adkins's name occurs as payee in five of the chocks, Woodcroft's in one, and Scott's in one. Thomas Edward Cockin, examined by Mr HAWKINS, said : I am now a mariner. I know the defendant very well. I have known him very well many years. I know the Berkeley, in AL- bemarle- street. I saw the defendant there. He kept the Berkeley. I was employed as a " bounet" [ laughter], I was sometimes below. When I was wanted I was sent for by the defendant. The " bonnet " is to sit at the table, and pretends to play there as if he were a stranger. I was well dressed. The " bonnet " acts under the direction of the master of the gaming- house, I had not always the same dress. * Mr MACAULAY, the defendant's eounsel, here rose and said the defendant had already given up ail the securities he held to the plaintiff; and he was now willing to givo up the money which had been paid, as well as the securities. Lord CAMPBELL asked if the defendant was willing to consent to a verdict for the suta in the particulars of demand. Mr HILL assented. Lord CAMPBELL said that if that was so the jury would find a verdict for the amount. Mr JAMES said the plaintiff could have no objection to that. It was on the ground that the money had been unfairly won that the action had been brought. Lord CAMPBELL then told the jury that in the discharge of their duty they would find a verdict for the plaintiff for £ 6,520. imperial parliament. HOUSE OF LORDS. MONDAY.- BREECH- LOADING GUN.— Lord PAITMUEE stated that an invention for fabricating breech- loading cannon having been offered by an American gentleman to the Govern- ment two years since, and approved upon examination by a committee, six specimens were ordered for further trial, and had lately arrived in this country from America, where they had been cast at the desire of the inventor. CONSOLIDATION OF STATUTES.— The LOBD CHANCEL- LOE, after recapitulating the labours, difficulties, and perl mances of the commissioners appointed for the consolidation .. the statute law, laid on the table eight bills, in which certain 1 departments of the code relating to criminal jurisprudence wt simplified and systematised.— The bills were read a first time. nrnn f- n ot ™ ^ 1"" UU1 luen passed. MSKHOLWS IN THE METROPOLIS.— Lord RAYNHAM moved for a select committee to inquire into the condition and administration of metropolitan workhouses, and into the^ r- S ria, de ai? d. carried out by the parochial authorities of the metropolis for giving relief to the poor. He adduced proofs of what he considered to be mal- administration in the work- houses of the metropolis which were, he said? generally^ managed and of the injudicious, harsh, and sometimes illegal treatment of paupers by the parish officials, reading and com- mentiRg upon recent cases.— The motion was, on a division re- jected by 73 to 52. EDUCATION.- In supply on the vote of £ 361,233 for public education in Great Britain, Mr COWPEB gave a sketch of the history of popular education on the Continent, as well as in England, and of the grant of public money for that object iu this country. He stated the principle upon which these granta were made- namely, that the State should co- operate with indi. nduals aiding those who he ped themselves, the Committee of Council for Education contributing not merely money, but ad. vice and guidance, there being local action under central surmr- vision. He then specified the obstacles to the diffusion of elementary education under this system, which he distributed under six heads, and entered into copious details respecting each. The greatest of these impediments, which, perhaps, chiefly prevented the success of the existing system, was in hk Hprif° af^ h, tu'regular att1ndal, 1( Le of the childi^ u at the school^ ^ nnt^ Aw mea,, 1S ® £! ployed bythe Committee of Council to counteract this evil.

LILLYWHITE'S COLLECTION OF SCOBES.— We have before us a book— or sort of index— naming the whole of the matches, and the year they were played in, that Mr F. Lillywhite has collected up to the present time. Although the matches are named, there are many ( played years ago) that have some trifling errors, and we are requested to assist Lillywhite in procuring the original scores, or cosies of them, which we can only do by giving pub- licity to the little work now produced, and for which only two- pence is charged, and sent, post free, for one penny extra. It is published for the purpose of informing the public of the nume- rous valuable scores preserved since 1746, in which year there is one match, and after that none are preserved ( at present known) until 1772. Wo sincerely trust this great work itself will appear at the time expected, with all the information that could be obtained. REMAINDER OF QRICKET gEE SUPPLEMENT. he foresaw might flow from auy act which affirmed the dissolu- bility of marriage, but Lord BBOUGHAM " administered relief," as he called it, to those two noble lords, by re- minding them that marriage had always been dissoluble, and that, as a matter of course, if certain conditions prescribed by a standing order of that house were fulfilled, a divorce was granted. He did not believe that there would be any great increase in the number ef divorces after the passing of this bill, to which he recommended their lordships to agree, with the exception of that clause which entailed the punishment of the adulterer otherwise than by a pecuniary fine.— Lord CAE- NAKYON and the Bishop of OXEOBD also spoke in favour of the amendment, but, after a reply from the LOBD CHANCELLOB, it was rejected by a majority of 57.— Two other amendments WIRE negatived without a division, but one, moved by the LOBD CHANCELLOE, striking out the words " fine and imprisonment," to which Lord BBOUGHAM had objected, was carried by a ma- jority of 20.— Another amendment, moved by Lord NELSON, aud supported by the Bishop of OXEOBD, providing that the re- marriage of divorced persons should be only a civil marriage, and that the clergy should not be compelled to solemnize such marriages, was also defeated, principally upon the suggestion of Lord CAMPBELL, by a majority of 28, as was one almost similar moved by the Bishop of EXETER.— On the question " that the bill do pass," the Bishop of OXFOED once more protested against it, and divided the house, but was defeated by a majority of 21. The bill, therefore, passed, and their lord- ships adjourned. THURSDAY.— OBSCENE PRINTS, & c.- Lord CAMPBELL moved the second reading of the Obscene Prints and Publications Bill, when considerable discussion arose as to what prints and publications were to be regarded as obscene; in the course of which Lord Lyndhurst, after exposing with great force the extreme difficulty of defining the word " obscene," proposed, as an amendment, that the bill be read a second time that day six months. On this amendment a somewhat tumultuous discus- sion followed, but ultimately tbe bill was read a second time, on the understanding that some words should be inserted into it in committee to guard against any abuse which might be appre- hended.— Some other business was then despatched, and their lordships adjourned. FRIDAY.— Nothing of importance occurred during the evening to call for a report. HOUSE OF COMMONS. MONDAY.— THE JEW BILL.— On the question that the Oaths Bill, as amended, should be considered, Mr SETMOUB FITZGEEALD moved a series of clauses, the effect of which was to render illegal the tenure by a Jew of certain high offices of State, of exercising any function in a Court of Ecclesiastical Judicature, or of possessing ex officio rights of presentation to benefices or preferments in the Establishment, or of advising the Crown touching the disposal of such preferments.— Lord PAL- MEBSTON intimated his assent to the introduction of the clauses, although he believed them to be wholly unnecessary.— After some conversation the motion was agreed to, and the bill, with this addition, ordered to stand for third reading on Thurs- day.— The house then went into committee of supply, and passed a large number of votes belonging to the series of miscellaneous civil services, amidst a prolonged discussion.— Mr G. GEEY moved the second reading of the Reformatory Schools Bill.— Mr ALCOCK objected on account of the lateness of the hour.— The house divided— for the second reading, 154; against it, 6; majo- rity, 148.— Mr LOWE obtained leave to bring in a bill to amend the law relating to joint- stock banks. TUESDAY.— INDIA.— Replying to a question from Mr B. Willyams, Mr V. SMITH stated that the 19th Native Regiment ef Bengal Infantry having shown a mutinous spirit, had been disbanded, but that there was no present intention of inflicting a similar punishment on any other corps.— Mr J. B. SMITH moved a resolution setting forth the expediency of directing legislative attention to the best means of removing the obstacles which at present impede the application of British capital and skill to the improvement of the productive power of India. The hon member remarked upon the enormous consumption of cotton in Great Britain, on the necessity of providing a more abundant supply of that raw material for our staple manufac- ture, and the natural facilities for the cultivation of the cotton plant in the territories administered by the East India Com- patsy. No obstacles, he maintained, were to be encountered except those arising from artificial causes or ministerial negli- gence, and especially from the want of roads, the imperfect system of irrigation, the anomalous tenure of land, and the general insecurity of life and property. By these and other obstructions the application of British skill and capital in India was paralysed, to the great loss of both the Indian and the home community.— The resolution was seconded by Mr ASPINALL TUKNEK, who adduced reasons for believing that India might outrival America as a source of cotton supply if fair play were given to her natural powers of productiveness.— Mr R. MANGLES defended the administration of the East India Company, and on the question of production observed that India already transmitted to England a larg'er quantity of com- modities than could be conveniently paid for.— After some further discussion, the debate was adjourned. WEDNESDAY.— The business this evening was not of a suffi ciently interesting nature to call for a report. THURSDAY— THE JEW BILL.— On the order for the third reading of the Oaths Bill, the Marquis of BLANDPOBD moved to defer the third reading for six months. His fundamental ob- jection to this bill, he observed, was that the crown of this realm was avowedly held " by thegraceof God," in the Christian idea of God. It had been said that by refusing the admission of Jews to Parliament the doctrine of charity would be infringed ; but by such refusal, he contended, the rule of charity, to work no ill to our neighbour, was in no way violated. Charity was a divine virtue, but the doctrine proceeded from that very Divine Being whom the bill proposed to ignore. Ia examining what he conceived to be the true nature and character of the bill, he remarked that the proposed oath said not a word of the main- tenance of the national religion ( not meaning the Established Church), which the old oath distinctly recognised, as well as the oaths contained in all the bills introduced by Lord J. Russell, except the last, and he insisted that the maintenance of Christianity was au essential element in the legislation of this country.— The amendment was seconded by Mr DBUMMOND in a speech combining humour and sarcasm with seriousness and gravity.— The O'DONOGHUE objected to the bill, not because it admitted Jews, but because it refused equal rights to Roman Catholics, and virtually re- enacted the act of 1829, making , the measure, in his opinion, a mere ministerial job.— Mr BALL spoke in support of the bill, but he obtained a very Culverwell sued as endorsee of one of reluctant hearing.— Mr DILLWYN, who was likewise veryun- tHe bills I had given Adkins, My defence was that he ( Culver-, willingly listened to, condemned the concessions of the Govern- well) was not the bond fide holder of the bill. The defence was ment in admitting the clauses excluding Jews from certain that Culverwell and Adkins were both one. I gave no evidence offices, which imposed, he said, a disability.— Mr COLLINS ob- COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, WESTMINSTER, JUNE (, Sittings at Nisi Prim before Lord CAMPBELL and Special Juries.) HIS EOYAL HI& HNESS THE ERINCE OH WALES. At the sitting of the court this morning his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales accompanied Lerd Campbell into court, and took his seat by his lordship's side. His royal highness remained during the trial of the case of " Sidebottom v Adkins," and paid great attention to the proceedings. At the close of the trial his royal highness shook hands with Lord Campbell, and, having bowed to the jury, left the court accompanied by his tutor. SIDEBOTTOM V ADKINS. Mr Edwin James, Q. C., Mr Overend, and Mr Hawkins ap- peared for the plaintiff; and Mr Macaulay, Q. C., Mr Huddleston, and Mr Lush for the defendant. Mr HAWKINS, the junior counsel for the plaintiff, said the plaintiff, John Sidebottom, sued the defendant, James Adkins, to recover the sum of £ 6,525, under the count for money had and received by the defendant to the plaintiff's use. The de- fendant pleaded the general issue, the Statute of Limitations, and also a set- off. Mr EDWIN JAMES, in opening the case, said the action was breught under very peculiar circumstances, to recover the sum of £ 6,525, which the plaintiff had lost to the defendant at play. The plaintiff, who was a young man, belonged to a respectable family at Manchester, who were millowners, and the defendant was formerly the keeper of a gambling- house, called the Berke- ley Club, in Albemarle- street, Piccadilly. The action was brought to recover back that sum of money, which had been lost to the defendant at play at that club. If the money had been lost fairly the plaintiff would have thought it dishonour- able to seek to recover it again; but after he had lost nearly £ 25,000, it came to his knowledge that the money had been won from him by cheating and false play. He learned that false dice had been used, aud while he, a young man, was primed with wine, his money was won from him by men who were termed " bonnets," by cheating and fraud. The learned counsel said it would be necessary for him to inform the jury that the game of hazard was played with dice; and that there were certain persons employed by the keepers of gambling- houses who were called " bonnets," to whom loaded dice were given. These loaded dice were made by inserting a heavy metal ( platinum) on one side, which had the effect that that side would not turn up. There were also certain kinds of dice named " despatches," some of which had none but odd numbers on them, and others none but even numbsrs. If these were loaded it was almost certain that those who used them would win. It would be shown that it was by means of such loaded dice, used by " bon- nets," that the plaintiff had been defrauded of his money; and, under these circumstances, the plaintiff had brought the present action to recover back his money. The learned counsel then called the following witnesses :— John Sidebottom, examined by Mr HAWKINS, said: I am a member of the firm of Sidebottom and Co, cotton- spinners, of Manchester. I know the defendant. I became acquainted with him in 1846. I was introduced to him at the Berkeley gaming- house, in Albemarle- street, by a friend. I was 27 or 28 years of age. From that time I played there. I ceased to play there iu 1853. I played there four or five times a year, on my occasional visits to Loudon. On the first occasion I played I be- lieve I lost £ 8,000. I don't recollect on any occasion leaving off a winner. Altogether I lost £ 25,000. The game at which I played was hazard. It is played with dice. The person who keeps the establishment is called the banker. He sits at the table, and the people round profess to play against the bank. The defendant was almost always present when I played. Some- times he was at the table, but generally at a desk in the corner. He evidently took the management of the whole affair. He had a brother sometimes present. He sat at the table as croupier. I have seen a person named Russell there often, and also Cockin sometimes. Russell was one of the croupiers. I sometimes played alone and sometimes with others. The bank has a cer- tain number, and those who play have another number. I backed them. When I played alone my loss was much greater than when others were there. While we were playing refreshments were had, whatever we liked to call for. We were asked to take champagne and other wines. When I lost my money I paid what cash I had. If I had not enough I gave an 10 U or a check. These seven checks wore given for money lost at play. I gave them to the defendant or sent them by post. The total is £ 6,525. I drew this check in favour of Woodcroft, because, being a commercial man, I did not wish my bankers to know that they were for a gambling- house. Sometimes I gave accept- ances. One of these passed into the hands of Culverwell. When I put Culverwell's case into the hands of my solicitor I was told I had been cheated. Cross- examined by Mr MACAULAY : My attorney now is Mr Abrahams. Mr Abrahams acted for me in the action brought against me by Culverwell change, 2s. Old. to 2*.% ™ ^ secilrities^ danced.

A BUBGLAE " PUNISHED," At an early hour one mornine last week a young man, named George Wilton, was admitted into Westminster Hospital, in charge of the police, with severe injuries, the result of a daring attempt at burglary at the house ofMr John Jubb, the proprietor of the New Star and Crown Broadway, Westminster. Between two and three o'clock Mr Jubb heard a noise in his bar, and being convinced that robbers were in the house he hastily descended, followed by a younir man m his semce, when he discovered Wilton in the act of rifling the till. Not knowing whether he was armed or not and self- preservation being the first law of nature, Mr Jubb ( who is a well- known cricketer) seized a bat, which was behind the bar and gave the burglar a tremendous blow across the face which rendered him helpless, and he was secured until the arrival of the police, when he was conveyed to the station- house • and the charge being preferred he was then removed to the hospital and Mr Nayler, the house- surgeon, attended to him. His aose is completely smashed, and his face frightfully disfigured. Wil- ton is well known to the police as an expert burglar. MILITARY SHOOTING MATCH WITH THE RIFLE.— On Tues- day last, a very interesting match took place on the field works of the Royal Engineers at Chatham, by the whole of the men of the corps, who have gone through their course of training with the Lancaster Rifle, in the first class, under the superintendence of Captain Lampriere, R, E., instructor of musketry. The number of men who contested for prizes were sixty, they fired ten rounds each at the target, at 600 yards. Their firing was very good, some of them hitting the bullseye eight and nine times. The best ten were then selected to compete for the fol- lowing prizes:— First prize, a silver watch ; second, a handsome time piece ; third, a gold ring ; fourth, a silver pencil case, to be shot for by firing 10 rounds, at 700 yards distance, when the first prize was obtained by Lance- Corporal Barnard; second Private John Thom; third, Private D. M'Gregor; fourth, Lance- Corporal Raddock, they having hit the bullseye five and ' six times. There were several engineer officers, and officers from the garrison present. THE VICTORIA CROSS.— We see by an advertisement in our impression of this day, that Lord William Lennox has published a record of the Rewarded and their Services. In so doing his lordship has conferred a boon on the public, by bringing, in a collected form, not alone the names of the distinguished bearers of the decoration, but the acts of valour achieved, honour- able alike to the gallant men and to the nation at large. We are sure that all classes will be desirous of having a copy of the work; it will form an historical record to illustrate and perpe- tuate the events of the reign of Queen Victoria, to whom a most graceful compliment is paid hi the introduction.
