Africa where the old slave trade formerly raged with the utmost violence. Can any sensible man doubt that what c- scurrea once will occur again, and that the chieftains aiong the coast will soon find a quicker mode of getting nch bv making war on neighbouring tribes, and carrying off and selling captives, than by the slower process of agriculture and manu- facture. At present, this part of the coast has become agricultural and commercial, its exports of 011 ana ol£ el produce have actually amounted to £ 800, OOf 111 ° ne jear. Hut depredations for slaves will soon put down nonest and laborious industry and all this promise of good will speedily disappear. Lord Clarendon expresses his full confidence m the French Government not to permit any such abuse. « e do not partici- pate in this confidence. It is absurd to do so. Nor can we avoid asking why, if the permission was merely to ao wnatis FRANCE. The following is the final result of the polling at the second elections which have taken place in the third, the fourth, aac the seventh districts of Paris:— THIRD DISTRICT.— General Cavaignac, 10,950 ; Thibaut, 9,95; — majority for the Republican candidate. 998. FOURTH DISTRICT.— Emile Oiiivier, 11,005; Variu, 10,006- majority for the Rupublican candidate, 999. SEVENTH DISTBICI.— Darimon ( editor of La Presse), 12,078 Lanquetin, 11,03S— majority for the Republican candidate, 1,040 The voting on the first day was very slow, for at the previous nuj, u — — — - , . | election the contents of the ballot- boxes were submitted to « pretended, there was felt to be any necessity to get tneautnorny rig0rous examination during the night, and tke name of every of the French Government for the contract between tno negro , eiector wJl0 ^ ad not recorded his vote was thus obtained. By suppliers and the negro consumers. If a ireneh compasj ; daybreak circulars were sent forth to ail who had abstained, re- wanted men to construct a railway, and could not hnd tnem in , quiring them to rush to the poll, and the workmen of the fau- France, but believed they could be procured in England or ire- j iJ0UrKS say that police agents were employed to represent those land, the company's agents would not need to ask, and would not ask the authority of the French Government to visit Lon- don or Cork to procure the labourers. If this African expedition after labourers was honestly what it pretends to be, there would be no necessity for doing more as to Africa than could be done as to England. The truth is, that this is a scheme to renew the slave trade, and the authority of the French Government has been obtained in order that that Government should be pledged to protect the slave ships against the vessels of war of any power that might arrest them in their nefarious traffic. This is the wickedness and this the danger of the scheme. It is pledging the French Government to go to war to support the slave trade. This could never have been done had the nation itself enjoyed a voice in the management of its own affairs. _ The nation would never so far have belied its own generous instincts. THE GLASGOW TRIAL. The verdict in this case has now been pronounced, and the result is safety for the person but destruction for the character of the accused. Half reasoning men are wondrously tickled with the Scotch form of " Not proven" for a verdict. To us it appears the evasion by a barbarous process of the legitimate and logical form of a judicial decision. The law says that where the evi- dence does not prove guilt the accused party must be declared innocent. If guilt was proved the verdict ought to have been guilty; if not proved, the verdict ought to have been not guilty. This form evades the principle of law, and affixes the imputation of guilt where the law gives all the results of perfect innocence. It is an example of the dastardly " willing to wound but yet afraid to strike." Can anything be mere absurd ? Miss Smith is now as perfectly free, and as fully pos- sessed of all legal rights, as if she had never been accused. The Jesuitism of slandering where the evidence did not justify con- demnation is a relic of those barbarous ages when Sanchez and Escobar tried to teach all the world in all things the sinuous and unmanly courses of the church of which they, were members. When the Scotch so vigorously overthrew Jesuitism in their church they should have overthrown it in their law also. SIGNALS OF DISTRESS. We copy the following from the morning papers :— " PROHIBITION OF THE USE OF ROCKETS AS PRIVATE SIGNALS.— When the Earl of Yarborough got on shore after the wreck of his yacht Zoe, a few weeks since, he expressed his sur- prise that the rockets which had been sent up from the yacht as signals of distress had not brought him any help, and was told by the inspector of the Coast Guard that his men had seen them, but from their frequent use as private signals by steamers passing each other in the night, they had paid no attention to them. Upon this being made known, Lloyd's appealed to the Board of Trade on the subject, and the board has forwarded a circular to all the local marine boards, Board of Trade surveyors, and principal shipowners, calling their attention to the inju- diciousness of the practice of using rockets as signals, except in cases of distress." The end of this paragraph does not justify its heading. The rocket private signals are not, but they ought to be, prohibited. If the Board of Trade possesses the power to prohibit the use of these signals except in cases of distress, it ought to exercise that power; if it does not possess the power, it ought to apply to Parliament at once for the concession of it. At present the system is, what Lord Denman, with reference to another matter, called " a delusion, a mockery, and a snare." It especially deserves the last epithet if men are induced to believe that the use of rocket signals will be taken as the signs of distress, and will ensure the means of assistance, and then find them totally neglected because they are fre- quently known to mean 110 more than th » t one boat has passed another on its way to or from a particular port. It is of the utmost importance that this practical deception, so dangerous in its consequences, should be strictly prohibited ; and, instead of " attention being called to it," the most stringent and pe- remptory orders should be issued for its instant suppression. In all the business of life, but most especially in that which is conducted 011 the sea, ought truth and intelligibility to be absolutely dominant. All men should be able to know with unerring certainty when a vessel is in distress, and if possible, the very sort of aid it requires, and the necessity for this clearness of knowledge becomes all the greater at night than in the daytime. Yet it is precisely at night that the com- munication of want of assistance is falsified by the selfish and culpable practice of men using the signs of distress as signs of the mere occurrence of an ordinary, and to them an agreeable event. As we should prevent any one, for his own private pur- poses, setting up a lighthouse which might mislead the world in general, and occasion numerous wrecks, so we ought at once to prevent any one using signals which are equally misleading, and which prevent the chance of assistance to struggling misfortune. We ought not to tolerate aApractical application of the fable of the lying shepherd; we ought not to allow men, by using the cry of " wolf" when there was no danger, to deprive of all hope of succour those'who use it when their danger is terribly imminent.

The French Government has committed a great blunder, all the worse because it must occasion an antagonism with the English Government. The French people are never consulted about the acts of their Government, and hence it is that the Government does many things unwise, unfit, and unsafe. It is, of course, like all governments, liable to be influenced by the represen. tations of those who profess to be its supporters, but who are so only to the extent of their own private interests. It cannot and dares not balance the boasted loyalty of such persons against something of a better kind. It will not appeal to public opinion, and it must therefore be guided and governed by private influ- ence. This is the best excuse, and we believe it to be the most probable cause of the recent blunder of the French Government. After having honorably distinguished itself in the labour of abolishing negro slavery— after having claimed superiority over England, if not in the cost of the sacrifice made for the pur- pose of putting an end to negro slavery in its own colonies, at least for the manner in which that purpose was attained, the French Government is now about to renew that slavery, and thus to imperil, if not to destroy, all the good that has been done. That the consequence of abolishing slavery in the English and French colonies might be a diminished means of cultivation in them was possible. But there is good reason to believe that that possible evil was made real by the foolish con- duct of the colonists themselves. They did not earnestly set to work to use the means in their power to find a substitute for slave labour. They did not act with the vigorous good sense of the agriculturists of England when the Corn- laws were abolished. The result has been that they are now forced to make great efforts to obtain a supply of labourers, and, like all men who have neglected good opportunities, they rashly demand any assistance, be its character what it may. The French colonists ask for a renewal of negro labour, and they ha^ e proposed, and the Government has acceded to, a plan which must and will be nothing but a re- establishment of the slave trade. " Under the authority of the French Government a great commercial house in France ( Messrs Regis) is to supply the French Colonies with several thousands of negroes a year. These negroes are, it is said, to be " hired"— but first the rate at which they are to be hired is fixed at a sum below what any free negro would accept for his labour in a colony ; and next, the " hirings" are to take place on that part of tha coast of THE DRAMA. HEE MAJESTY'S THEATEE.— Signor Giuglini, following the example of Madlle Piccolomini, has announced for his benefit, which is to take place on Monday uext, a selection from a num- ber of different operas. No less than five distinct performances ar£ included in the bill. This is enough to satisfy the most in- satiable lovers of variety, and yet there is not one of the per- formances which could be omitted without sacrificing some dis- tinctive feature of the new tenor's art. The fourth act of " II Trovatore," containing the celebrated Romanza and Miserere, could scarcely be rejected. The last act of " Lucia" belongs to Giuglini alone, and a benefit without the Fra Poco would have been incomplete. The next piece is the last of " II Pirata," in which Giuglini will essay for the first time in London the Tu Vedrai," which old opera- goers still associate with the name of Rubini. The scene from " I Martiri," which created so profound a sensation on Monday last, will lie again given; and the evening will appropriately conclude with the last act of " La Favorita," which won for Signor Giuglini on his first appearance the high position he has since so effectually maintained. ROYAL ITALIAN OPEEA.— On Thursday night the long- pro- mised Italian version of " Fra Diavolo" was produced, before a crowded audience, with the most complete success. It is placed upon the stage in such a manner as to claim unqualified ap- proval ; the exquisitely fresh and beautiful music— thanks to the fine orchestra and chorus directed by Mr Costa— is heard to unprecedented advantage. The principal characters are admi- rably sustained. Signor Ronconi's Lord Rocburg ( Lord Allcash) is one of the most diverting and original impersonations ever witnessed. The cast includes the names of Madame Bosio ( Zerlina), Mademoiselle Marai, Signors Gardoni ( Fra Diavolo), Neri Beraldi, Roaconi, Polonini, Zelger, and Tagliafico* LYCEUM THEATEE.— The appearance of Madame Ristori as Lady Macbeth has naturally excited much curiosity beyond those circles which ordinarily take interest in her impersona- tions. Here is a character familiar to English readers and play- goers of every class, and associated with the noblest traditions of the London stage. The adaptation of the play by Signor Giulio Carcano is very ably executed. Its chief object is to ren- der the lady the prominent character with the least possible alteration of the original text, and without detriment to the in- telligibility of the story. Thus, while the scene of the cauldron is omitted, and the fighting in the last act is reduced to a minimum, the witches are allowed to appear in the first scene, where they are exhibited as prophets of the ensuing action. The character of Lady Macbeth herself is completely unaltered. In- deed, in the second act Shakspeare is more closely followed than by the ordinary conventions of our own stage. The ap- pearance of Madame Ristori, with her tall figure, her command- ing features, and her dignified carriage, is, of course, perfect. She treads the stage as if she is born to govern ; but, neverthe- less, in her rule of Macbeth she displays more fondness than is commonly represented on the English stage— she lures more than she urges. The celebrated passage— " I have given suck ; and know How tender ' tis to love the babe that miiks me. I would, while it was smiling in my face, Have pluck'd my nipple from his boneless gums, And dashed the brains out, had I so sworn as you Have done to this"— is illustrated by her action on the same principle as the " leopard simile" in " Medea." She goes through the described situation as if she were actually involved in it; that is to say, she does hold the imaginary infant to her bosom, she does pluck it away, she does dash it to the ground with all accuracy, suiting the gesticulation to the conrse of the words. This is one of the great " points" of her delineation. The scene of the murder is quietly rendered, with a thorough sense of the gravity of tfce position, her prompt- ings being rather firm than impulsive. In the restored situation, when she listens with affected horror to the rela- tion of the murder, she contrasts her real anxiety for her hus- band with pretended horror at the deed, till she is carried appa- rently senseless from the stage. Throughout the whole of the banquet scene she is still the person of unshaken mind, who would quietly prevent Macbeth from committing himself in the presence of his guests. The supposition that Lady Macbeth would herself be terrified at the horrors of this scene and its possible consequences does not belong to her conception of the character, and hence we have not that storm of perturbed emotions that so often gives variety to the situation. Her gene- ral notion of Lady Macbeth is of a superior intelligence that can rule without great exertion of energy, and is never at any risk of forfeiting self- control. The sleep- walking scene is a grand pic- torial exhibition of the kind in which Madame Ristori is without a rival. The pallid face, the sightless eyes, the mechanical ges- tures produce an admirable effect, making the audience feel in a ghost- like presence. All the details of this£ ne scene are wrought to a high degree of perfection, and we have a right to suspect that this one situation induced Madame Ristori to undertake the character. Her retirement from the stage, as she fancies she is urging forward Macbeth with both her hands from the place of crime is very remarkable, and she gains a great advan- tage by her non- observance of an old law of the English stage, according to which Lady Macbeth must take up her candle after sitting down and retire by the centre door through which she entered. Entering at the centre door, retiring at the wing, and not resuming her candle, Madame Ristori obtains a variety of position and a freedom of movement that she turns to the best account. Her acting of this scene is her great triumph with the audience. OPERATIC PERFORMANCES IN THE PEOVINCES.— We under- stand that after the close of her Majesty's Theatre for the season a provincial tour will be undertaken by a powerful company, selected from the distinguished artistes who have appeared at her Majesty's Theatre during the London season, including Pic- coiomiui and Giuglini. It is intended to visit Manchester, Li- verpool, Dublin, Edinburgh, and Glasgow, the early part of August being fixed for the commencement of the circuit. The three prima donnes, Piccolomini, Spezia, and Ortolaui, will be of the troupe, which wiil also include Belletti, Vialetti, Rossi, Be- nevenfcano, and others, together with an effective orchestra and chorus. The operas selected will comprise all the gems of the repertoire, " Don Giovanni," " Figaro," " Traviata," " Figlia," " Don Pasquale," and " Trovatore," being among the number. DEPASTURE OF THE PRINCE OF WALES FOR GERMANY.— His royal highness, accompanied by General the Hon C. Grey, Lieut- Col Ponsonby, Mr Stanley, Rev Mr Gibbs, and Dr Arm- strong, left London on Monday, and arrived at the Lord Warden Hotel. Dover, in the evening. At Dover, the Admiralty steam- yacht Banshee, Commander Allen, was in readiness, and conveyed his royal highness and suite to Ostend, en route to Germany the following morning. THE DUCHESS OF BEDFORD.— We regret to announce the death of the Duchessof Bedford. Thislmuch- respected lady expired somewhat suddenly on Friday week, after only a brief illness. Her grace was the daughter of the third Earl of Harrington, and leaves an only son. the Marquis of Tavistock, horn in 1808. Few ladies have adorned the British peerage by more exemplary vir- tues than those which belonged to the character of this amiable and lamented lady. Her loss will be deeply felt, and the more who were absent from Paris, and that one police agent had im- personated no less than 17 voters. The electors knew this and would not vote till the Monday raorniug, when the result was as stated above. There are now eleven Opposition deputies ; elected— Cavaignac, Camot, Goudchaux, Oiiivier, and Darimon for Paris; Dr. H6non for Lyons, Cure for Bordeaux, Brame for Lille, Javal for the Yonne, Halligon for the Mayenne, and De Morgan for the Somme. News from Tunis to the 1st iust has arrived, A Jew at Tunis having been insulted by the Moors, and having replied with blasphemies against the religion of Mohammed, was thrown into prison, and was afterwards beheaded, and his corpse aban- doned to the insults of the mob. The consuls unanimously pro- tested against these outrages, and Mr Crowe, the English vice- consul, has arrived at Marseilles, the bearer © f a protest against the conduct of the Bey. SPAIN. Lord Howden has had some trouble of late with Marshal Narvaez. His lordship was instructed to insist on the recal of General Concha from the island of Cuba. Our minister laid before the Government proof positive that Concha had not only tolerated the infamous traffic in human flesh and blood, but that he had shamelessly encouraged it, and had even lieapeid up large sums of money by his connivance in those atrocities. Narvaez denied Lord Howden's statements, but Lord Howden established them, and insisted on the withdrawal of Concha, Accordingly, the Governor of Cuba is coming home, and will return like his predecessors, laden with the spoils which he has wrung from the bloodthirsty slave dealers. The celebrated " Maid of Saragossa" is dead— she died about ten days since, and was buried wish due honours. Sue held military rank iu the Spanish army, on account of her exploits iu the defence of her native city. BELGIUM. The Russian journal Le Nord has been at the point of death. It has, however, been revived by the infusion of some fresh blood into its veins, in the form of £ 10,000 sterling, or nearly so — 24.0, OOOf. This new blood has rendered it as Imperialist as the Patrie itself. Le Nord, which oi' late was vilifying Napoleon the Third, is now a preacher of Napoleoniau ideas, a change which may, perhaps, not be palatable to its former subscribers. PIEDMONT. The most painful intelligence has been received from Genoa* The Daily News correspondent at Turin says:—" An attempt was made at Genoa to excite a tumult and seize the forts of II Diamante and Lo Sperone. Some young fellows at Leghorn be- longing to the lower class of people in the quarter La Veuezia, attacked several of the soldiers with pistols and daggers, and killed them. This kindled anger in the minds of the garrison, who became so exasperated that, without waiting for orders, they assembled iu several parts of the town, and began to fire upon the citizens. The original assailants, finding themselves not backed up by any one, collected themselves for defence iu a house, which having been forced open by the troops, ten persons fell into their hands, three of whom were cut to pieces on th « spot; the other seven were taken to the large Piazza Ferdinaudo and there shot. The soldiers afterwards brought some cannoi; there, and the firing continued for some time," as long as any people were seen collected together. ' The steam- boat which left Leghorn next day for the port of Genoa brought word that a fresh and most serious alarm had been raised in the town, but it did not seem to have been caused by any actual outbreak." NAPLES. There has been a very insane attempt at insurrection in the kingdom of Naples. The official paper, the Piedmontese Gazette. publishes the following account" The steam- boat Cagliari, which performs the mail service from Genoa to Tunis, touching at some of the ports in Sardinia, and which belongs to the com- pany of Kubattino, started from Genoa on the 25th ult, to make her usual trip. No notice having been received of her arrival in Sardinia, and it being known that some suspected persons, the greater part of whom were discharged soldiers of the Italian Legion, had embarked on board this vessel, furnished with regular passports for Tunis, the authorities despatched the steamer Ichnusa, of the royal navy, to search for the Cagliari. and to resist any attempt which might be made by them Thi: search has proved useless, and information has now reached us that the persons above alluded to, having possessed themselves of the command of the vessel, directed her course towards tht coasts of the kingdom of Naples, and ou the 27th ult attacked the isle of Ponza, where they took on board three hundred of tht prisoners condemned for political offences, and thence proceeded to the coast of the Lower Principality, in the province of Salerno, and landed at a place upon that coast of the name of Sapri. The individuals referred to had hoisted the red flag on board the vessel, but persisted in keeping the Sardinian flag, which they abused in an unworthy manner. Two vessels of the Neapolitan navy, which were transporting troops into the province of Salerno, have captured the Cagliari. The French papers have the following despatch from Mar- seilles, dated Sunday. It gives some particulars, though iu a confused manner, of the late attempt to raise an insurrection in the kingdom of Naples :—" We have news from Naples, of the 2dinst. The official journal of Naples, of the previous day, states that on the 27th ult a Piedmontese steam- boat anchored at Ponza under the pretext that she had some damages to be repaired, and armed boats put off from her with men who lauded and succeeded in disarming a patrol of veterans and customs guards. A detachment of troops of the line resisted, and had some killed and others wounded. The band of assailants then hoisted the red flag, set lire to several houses and pillaged them, with cries of ' Viva l'ltalia ! ' Yiva la Republica !' The con- spirators were followed only by a part of the condemned pri- soners whom they had released. They afterwards effected a second landing at Sapri, where they committed fresh excesses. The gendarmerie and the urban guard proceeded without delay to combat the invaders, part of whom disbanded themselves, and the rest surrendered. Two frigates have captured the Pied- montese steam- boat, with the arms which remained on board of her. According to the accounts we receive, the value of the arms and stores which have been seized is not less than a million of francs. The King of Naples has sent two aud a half battalions of troops to aid the urban guards, who have spontaneously mobilised themselves, to pursue the aggressors." When the steam- boat was captured by the Neapolitan frigates there was no one on board but the captain, named Sitzia, and his crew, whom jjhe insurgents had tied with ropes and shut up in the hold, RUSSIA. Letters from Constantinople of the 24th of June make men- tion of an official report by Osman Reis, the master of an Ottoman coasting craft, to the authorities at Trebizonde on the 16th of that month of this vessel's having, while hauled up on • the beach at Ghelenjik, been fired into on the 3d by a Russian steamer of war carrying a British flag, when some seven or eight out of a score of shots struck her hull, and which same steamer, after firing some 100 shots at the bazaar, without causing any damage of importance, weighed anchor, and gave chase to and finally captured another Ottoman coasting craft, salt laden, with a merchant on board belonging to Trebizonde, The steamer afterwards went on to Soudjak Kaleh, accompanied by three gun- boats in tow, where, after bombarding the place, some 80 or 90 armed men landed, ransacked the bazaar of the most valuable goods exposed therein for sale, then set fire to the rest and to all the contiguous houses, capturing two more coasting craft belonging to Trebizonde, laden with butter aud grain. The same Osman Reis, moreover, reports that towards the close of May, Sefer Bey and Mehmet Pasha, at the head of 20,000 Circassians and Poles, defeated in the vicinity of Anapa a Ilussian force of 15,000, with dreadful slaughter, no quarter being shown. Prince Gagarine had evaded the watchfulness of the Circassian sharpshooters, aud contrived to land three battalions during the darkness of the night, which force had occupied Gagra. THE WEST AFRICAN MAIL. The Candace African Mail steamer, Captain Hawkesly, ar rived at Plymouth on Tuesday evening, from the West Coast of Africa, with mails and 50 passengers, including those of the missing mail steamer the Niger, the rumour of the loss of which is confirmed. The Niger was wrecked near Santa Cruz, but the whole of the crew, passengers, and mails were taken to Tene- riffe, and thence brought on in the Candace. There is no news of much political or mercantile interest from the coast. At Sierra Leone considerable excitement had been occasioned among the European community, by the deliberate murder of Captain Pearson, of the 1st West India Regimeat. It appeared that two officers were suitors for the favours of a lady, and seve- ral violent quarrels resulted. An apparent reconciliation took place, and although Lieutenant Watson had been heard to use threats against some one believed to be the deceased, nothing serious was apprehended. About three o'clock on the morning of May 14th, Lieutenant Watson lifted the mat which served as a partition to the sleeping apartment of deceased, and with a pistol shot him, while sleeping, in the head. Death resulted instantaneously. A coroner's inquest had been held, and a verdict of Wilful Murder returned against Lieutenant Watson, whose trial was about to take place. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. COURT- MARTIAI.— On Tuesday a court- martial assembled on board the Waterloo, 120, flag- ship at Sheerness, to try Captain Henry Spratt, Royal Marines, of the President, 50v on the charge of having " unjustly accused " Captain Frederick, of the Presi- dent, of " punishing a marine" on board the President, of which he was the commander, on her passage home from Valparaiso. The court was composed of the following officers:— Captain Superintendent of Sheerness Dockyard, J. J. Tucker ( President), Captain E. P. Halstead ( Edinburgh), Captain Superintendent of Chatham Dockyard, G. Goldsmith, Captain J. Fulford ( Ganges), 84, Captain Cockburn ( Cossack), Captain H. Harvey ( Waterloo), Mr W. W. Hayword, and Acting Deputy Judge Advocate. The prisoner was assisted by Mr Pratt, solicitor, of Rochester. Cap- tain Frederick was the prosecutor, and the first lieutenant of the President, the officer of the watch, and the paymaster's assistant were called iu support of the charge.— In his defence the prisoner denied having acted disrespectfully towards Captain Frederick, or having accused him of inflicting an unjust punishment. He con- tended that it was the first lieutenant who imposed the punish- ment.— The court deliberated for three quarters of an hour, at which time they arrived at the opinion that the charge was sub- stantiated, and sentenced Captain Spratt to be severely repri- manded, and to lose one year of his captain's time.— The general reader, who feels an interest in naval matters, may as well be in- formed that the officers who tried Captain Spratt were captains of the Royal Navy iu command of men- of- war, and all of them two grades iu rank superior to the prisoner. There was not a single officer of his own corps ( Royal Marines) on the judgment seat. Without questioning the soundness or righteousness of the verdict, we cannot help saying that it would have been more satisfactory to the ends of justice if one or two colonels or cap-! tains of Marines had formed a portion of this " judge and jury " assembly. MOVEMENTS OF SHIPS OF WAR.— The Vulcan, 6, has arrived from the Cape, with a number of troops, principally invalids.

One spirited speculator, however, fancied the dinner sufficiently to take 1,000 to 30 about her winning to- day aid Anton the Goodwood Cup, having previously landed the irst event of a similar bet about Huntington and Anton for the Handicap Plate and Goodwood Cup ! 2,060 to 100 was taken swiee about Anton for the Goodwood Cup and Doacaster Stakes, and 7,000 to 100 about Anton for the Goodwood Cup and Don- caster Stakes and Blink Bonny the Leger. Anton was in great force for the Cup, and on the Heaih was backed for some money at 10, 9, and 8 to 1; on the plat- form at Cambridge, en route to town, 100 to 15 was taken, and he had the decided call of Gemma di Yergy. The meeting was brought to a conclusion with an Optional Selling Plate, which, after a capital race with Sorceress, was carried off by Lady Conyngham, who, to the relief of her former owner, thereupon found a new one. Apologising for the absence of the time to the different races on the last day, owing to our assistant being seized with a severe attack of illness, and not being our- selves aufait to the stop watch system, we willingly bear testi- mony to the satisfactory manner in which the " special " performed the journey from Newmarket to town, under the direction of Mr Sprowle, one of the most efficient of the Com- pany's servants.

Gin then took a slight lead, and the pace, which up to that point had been wretched, improved, but was never first- rate.

In the dip, the heavy weight joiued the leading horses, ran with tkem to the top of the hill, then took the lead, and won cleverly by a length, the Sneer gelding beating Lord Exeter's mare by a neck for second.

When the fiag fell, July jumped off with the lead, attended by the Beeswax and Catalpa fillies on the right, and Harry Stanley on the left; Windham and Scourge, the latter of whom bolted to the right directly after starting, bringing up the rear. There was no change in the front rank until rising the hill, when the Catalpa filly dropped off, and The Royal Sovereign joined the three leading horses. At the top, the four placed closed, and ran one of the most exciting races ever wit- nessed, Lord Clifden's filly, who got the best of it in the last two strides, winning by a " good head," whilst a " short head" only separated each of the other thsee. At an interval of three lengths the Catalpa filly was fifth, about half a length in advance of Fascine, close up with whom were Windham and Scourge.

Secretary: Mr B. Richards. Judge: Mr T. Horseley. More than once it has been the fate of Stourbridge to suffer from an overcrowding of meetings at this " dog- day" season ; but at its two last anniversaries the mischief to satisfactorily- supported programmes has chiefly proceeded from animals of the Goldhill and Oakball class dropping in at these minor gatherings. With an absence of such notabilities many a gal- lant struggle over this course can be recalled, which renders it the more to be regretted that latterly the exertions of an always fair dealing and sport- preserving management should become, as it were, futile by principal handicaps being reduced to " certainties," and small fields and less important events as naturally following suit. Nothing, consequently, in the shape of introductory remark is required upon the racing pre- sented on Monday and Tuesday last to the customary arge muster on Pedmore Heath, when for a wonder, the weather was very propitious. Letting bygones be we, therefore, notice with pleasure the scheme THURSDAY.— The REVIVAL HANDICAP of 7 sovs each, 3 ft. with 50 added ; the winner of the Lancaster Cup 101b, of any other race 71b extra ; the winner to pay 5 sovs towards ex- peases; one mile and a quarter ; 16 subs.

Nor in connection with the past and future should a word of praise be omitted to the excellent secretary, Mr B. Richards, of the Vine Hotel, whose admirable, though latterly ill- requite#, services in the promotion of sport, are none the less appreciated by Turfites far beyond his own im- mediate neighbourhood. Those old officials, Messrs Horseley and Callaway, whilst well discharging their respective duties, expressed themselves only sorry they had not more to do ; and as selling races formed no portion of the divertissement, assurances of a retention of the same proviso lent additional confidence in the " next merrie meeting." The result of the July Stakes, supplied by Mr Wright's well- known messenger, Boyling, was posted in the ring at 5: 10 p. m. on Tuesday.

At the distance Shirali . . , ,, , ™ and Lunelle gave way to Vulcan and Huntington, and the three vourite won in a canter by a length.

This order was maintained to the bottom of the hill left ef the Stand, where the Queen took second place and getting up to Jack's head in the next hundred yards they raced for the lead, which the mare obtained just before turning into the straight. In rounding the bend for the latter Shirah gave way to Oakball and Typhon, both of whom joined the leaders at the distance, but attempting to take the inner ground, found themselves sud- denly shut out and were compelled to go round their horses. This was the work of a few seconds only, as half way up Oakball reached Jack Spring, and quitting him in a few strides, won easily by a length; the second securing the " tenner" by the same. Two lengths off Queen of the South was fourth, and a like interval separated her and Shirah.

WEDNESDAY, JULY 8.— The well sustained exertions of the Stewards and committee have nearly restored this meeting to its former high standing. On the present occasion the attend- ance— though it fell far short of the gatherings to be seen on " the Hill" previous to the great exodus occasioned by the famine— was exceedingly good, embracing many fashionables and a good sprinkling of metropolitans. The business of the meet- ing was well and effectively carried out under the superintend' ence of the Messrs M'Cann, ably assisted by their new Clerk of Mr Leaeii's Prnice's jwixture i yrs, , st y. o. o. t oMham i as ! the Course, Mr Coatsworth. an excellent selection.

The latter made strong running to the .. half distance, where he was collared by The Queen, and de- feated, after a good race, by a length; the others nowhere.— Second heat: Won easily. Soon after starting Prince's Mixture struck one of the boundary posts, fell, and getting rid of Ford- ham, who was only a little shaken, galloped on in the race.

Bushell, and Mr J. Maiden. Clerk of the Course: Mr Willsmer. Judge: Mr Barker. TUESDAY, JULY 7.— These races having been established through the liberality of Mr T. Clarke, assisted by Messrs Willes aud Maiden, solely for the purpose of affording a day's recrea- tion to the inhabitants of the village aud neighbourhood of Southminster, it is not to be expected that we should enter into any detail of the sport further than te add that great im- provements have been effected on the course, under the direc- tion of Mr Clarke, by improving the objectionable turns, and a straight run in of nearly half a mile substituted for the cramped finish that caused so much danger when pulling up last year. The weather was all that could be desired, and the attendance of the country folk larger than usual, many of the leading fami- lies patronising the little festival, which though unimportant, as far as the racing was concerned, appeared to give great satisfac- tion to all. It is in contemplation next year to increase the amount of the added money, and to have two handicaps with 56 sovs added. This is a step in the right direction and must succeed. The following are details :— The LLOYD STAKES, by subscription: of 2 sovs each, with 30 added; for horses the property of, and belonging to members of Lloyd's," or gentlemen residing within 10 miles of South- minster; gentlemen riders; professionals 5lb extra; heats, one mile and a half; 8 subs.

On reaching the Stand the second time St Patrick was joiued by Walnut, and the pair ran in company to the next flight of hurdles, which Walnut cleared a length in advance; was never after caught, and won a good race by three lengths ; Pantaloon finished a bad third ; and Lady Berkeley last, a long way in the rear.

For the Trial Stakes seven ( the full number entered) started, and it resulted in the success of the favourite, Greyling, owing to the Tattler, when with the race in hand, bolting to his stable, situate adjacent to the Duleek turn. For the Drogheda Tradesman's Plate Remedy and England's Beauty were equal favourites, but the former won easily, the Beauty securing the second money only in conse- quence of the Duchess of Alba bolting at the Ball Alley turn. The race for the Hunters' Plate being rather a local affair, occa- sioned great interest and amusement. It was, however, won at last easily by Lady Emily, who needlessly carried a penalty of 71b, her owner, fancying her to be thorough bred, having entered her as such.

STEEPLE CHASES TO COME. AUGUST. - Dieppe ( 2)— For the Grand Steeple Chase ( Handicap) entries ( by sealed letters) made before 4, p. m..

THE LATE KILMARNOCK STEEPLE CHASES. Mr EDITOR : Although ( as Mr E. H. Maxwell very justly ob- serves) the long correspondence respecting the late Kilmarnock Steeple Chase has been a very prosy affair, I trust ( as the rider of The Deacon) I may be allowed to make a few remarks which will at least correct one mistake which Mr Maxwell has made in his letter of the 23th ult. So far, then, from being " an ac- quaintance " of Mr W. F. Hamilton's, I beg leave to state that to the best of my recollection I never saw that gentleman before the Kilmarnock Steeple Chase, and I am quite certain I never spoke to him before in my life. I cannot confirm or contradict his statement respecting the orders he gave to the other riders. I can only say that I received no instructions from him myself. Before starting, I complained of the great crowd of people at the flag coming into the winning field, and Mr Hamilton replied that he would have them removed and a clear space left before we came to that point. Previous to this Mr Craig gave me direc- tions to leave all flags on my left hand. On approaching this last fence I discovered we were all three going wrong, and en- deavoured to step m. y horse ( who was pulling double and catch- ing his horses at every stride); it was impossible to jump on the right side of the flag, as the whole concourse of spectators were standing on the fence. I, however, pulled my horse completely into it, and he fell on his head; I got him up again and re- jumped the fence on the right side, amidst deafening shouts of " Go on," " You're all right," " What are you coming back for?" & c, so that I most distinctly deny that any friend told me of my mistake. I may, perhaps, here be allowed to add, that Mr Hamilton was the only steward who for a moment ( after hearing the evidence of Mr Craig as to his instructions to the riders) objected to my receiving the stakes, which, according to all rules of steeple chasing, I had fairly won.— Yours, & c, White Horse Hotel, Malton, 7th July.

Entries for the SELLING STEEPLE CHASE. that such treatment is grossly at variance with the pro- verbial humanity of our English laws, aud we feel confident that an action for false imprisonment against the authorities would be liberally responded to by twelve English jurymen. We may add that the learned Recorder has evidently mistaken the character of the defendant's occupation in the above case. The object of the act was to prevent places being open that would entrap young men into " speculating upon horse raciug," but this was a house where regular racing men congregated, and therefore no offence within the meaning of the statute could have been committed, inasmuch as the occupation of the persons using the house," was exclusively confined to Turf pursuits. What next and next l After this exhibition, we shall hope to see a body of stock- brokers marched to the Mansion House, with one of the speculating Aldermen at their head, for " using" the Stock Exchange for the purposes of gambling. cricket.

Mr Lindsay was most unluckily put out by the unusual circumstance of his wiokets being knocked by a hit from the opposite batsman, the ball just grazing the bowler's fingers, whilst Mr Lmdsay was out of his ground.

Theprisoner has been for nearly seven months under sentence of death in Maidstone Gaol, and he has been twice brought before the Court of Queen's Bench by habeas, in order that a point of law, upon which a writ of error had been granted, might be argued, and on the result, the judges unanimously decided that the technical objection raised on behalf of the prisoner would not avail him, and the judgment of death was consequently affirmed.

Strasbourg is one of those interesting country meetings which might be made much more of were an alteration made in th pregramme, and the date so settled as not to clash with othe meetings. A Handicap is the chief feature wanting ; but we are assured that the " card" will not be without it next season Moreover, the two days' racing are proposed to be compressed into one— an alteration, by the bye, which we think should not be too hastily arrived at, as there are funds enough apparently to pro- duce the two days' racing and company inclined to enjoy them both. The weather being delightfully fine, a numerous and fashionable assemblage was collected upon the course, and, although some disappointment may have been felt at the '' short- comings" of the first day's spart, it was amply made up for on the second. The racing does not call for remark— Ronzi and Miss Cath alone representing anything approaching a racehorse.

On Tuesday last, the keepers and earth- stoppers connected with Lord Middleton's Hunt were iavited to a dinner at the Talbot Hotel, Malton, at his lordship's expense, when about fifty sat down and enjoyed to the fullest extent the good things that were spread in profusion before them. Mr Morgan, the huntsman, occupied the chair in a most able man- ner, and Mr Geo. Pateman, gamekeeper to Wm. St. Quintin, Esq, the vice- chair. After dinner the usual loyal toasts were drunk, the healths of Lord Mlddleton and Sir Tatton Sykes, Bart, were proposed respectively by the chairman and vice- chairman, in the most appropriate and sportsman- like manner, and received with an enthusiasm that can better be imagined than described, with a Tally- Ho ! that the lovers of the chase alone know how to give. Afterwards followed " Lady Middleton and the younger branches of the family;" " The Gentry of this Hunt;" " The Chairman;" " Success to Foxhunting;" and many other sporting toasts. The meeting was sustained with the greatest hilarity and good humour until a late hour, every one appearing perfectly satisfied with the day's proceedings.— This act of kindness on the part of his lordship will, no doubt, be Mly appreciated by those to whom it was extended, and wil. be instrumental in maintaining that respect and good feeling towards him that has ever existed in the hunt; and, we believe, words were never more sincerely spoken, than the rough and ready " Long Life to Lord Middleton to hunt the Birdsall Hounds," which was shouted in response to his health. We are glad to hear this meeting is to be annual, for it will be looked forward to with pleasurable anticipations by every one connected with the hunt in this capacity. HUNTING MEMS. James Watts, the well- known feeder at the Duke of Beaufort's Kennels at Badminton, has retired from duty through declining health, in the 69th year of his age, and the 55th of his servitude at these kennels, having entered under Phillip Payne in 1802. His noble master has settled on him a handsome annuity, and he sits down respected, with a contented mind and a grateful heart. THE LATE ATTACK UPON BETTING- HOUSES THE CITY.

THE QUEEN V MERRY. James Merry who was convicted at the Mansion House, be. fore the Lord Mayor and Alderman Wire, of having used a room in a house in Talbot- court, Gracechurch- street, for betting pur- poses, and sentenced to imprisonment for three months, appealed against the conviction. Mr RIBTON appeared for the appellant and Mr BODKIN on the part of the Crown, The learned counsel, in support of the appeal, made an able address to the court, urging that the defendant had committed no offence against the act, the intention of which was, in a great many instances, mistaken. He then proceeded to review the facts at great length, and tendered an objection to the information, on the ground that the number of the house was not specifier therein. The Court over- ruled the objection, and after hearing the evidence of Butt ( whose statement was published 11 our report of the proceedings at the Mansion House) confirmed the convic- tion. The defendant was then taken to prison to serve the three months with hard labour to which he was originally sentenced, the Recorder subsequently volunteering his opinion that the system of betting- houses was calculated to have a most injurious effect upon society, and expressing a hope that the present proceedings would tend to remedy the evil. We have received a letter from one of the persons implicated in the above affair, and from the manifest injustice therein ex- hibited, we briefly state the facts, as detailed by the writer. It appears that he went into the house to get some refreshment, and whilst there the police rushed in, forced him from the bar at which he was standing into the betting- room, searched him as if he were a thief, and, although nothing was found on him re- lating to betting, took his money from him, and marched him through therpublic streets at a quarter past twelve, p. m. in custody.' He was then taken to the station- house, and, after a minute description had been taken of him, was consigned to a cage with thirteen others. He states that he was kept there five hours with nothing to eat, and after that was arraigned before their worships and discharged. We caa only state CLAPTON v BISHOP STORTFORD. This match was played at Clapton, on Thursday, the 2d hist, and was decided in favour of the former by two runs on the first innings. Score: BISHOP STORTFORD. F. W. Nash, Esq, run out 1 J. P.

We have yet very little to record among the yachting move- meats beyond the official reports © f the arrivals and sailings. The regatta will take place at Southampton, in the last week of this month; and as the August week will commence with the Squadron's regatta, we may yet look forward to a brilliant as- semblage of the iUte of the land, particularly as the court will then be at Osborne, and the Emperor and Empress expected there on a visit to her Majesty.

A special general meeting of this club assembled at the club house, 49, St James's- street, on Wednesday last, the 8th inst, for the purpose of considering the purport of the notice having re- ference to the advisability of increasing the accommodation of the club, as at present located, to the extent of £ 200 per annum. The chair was occupied by the treasurer, and at the commence- ment of the proceedings there were not far short of one hundred present. Mr Morgan, OH behalf of the house committee, ex- plained the desirability of extending the accommodation of the club to the amount above specified, when, after a short discus- sion, the club unanimously resolved to sanction the increased outlay. Mr R. S. Wilkinson then begged to call the attention of the club to a proposition he felt sure would be responded to by all present, and, he might assuredly add, by the club at large, He ( Mr Wilkinson) could but be the echo of the general feeling of the club when, in advocating the propriety of testifying the ap- preciation of the R. T. Y. C. of the valuable services of their noble commodore, Lord Alfred Paget, M. P,, he would briefly allude to the many kind and estimable qualities possessed by his lordship whilst presiding over the club— services too well knofl^ i to need further comment, and therefore he ( Mr W.) would con- clude by moving—" That a committee be formed to wait upon the Commodore, Lord Alfred Paget, M. P., for the purpose of ascertaining whether his lordship will sit to Mr F. Grant, R. A., for his portrait, as a testimony of the kindness and good feeling he has always shown in presiding over the club, the same to be suspended in the club room." The above having been seconded by Mr J. Morgan, was carried nem con. On the proposition of Mr Wilkinson, seconded by Mr H. Barber, it was unanimously resolved that the following members compose the aforesaid committee:— T. S. Barwell, Esq, Richard Green, Esq ( Vice Com- modore), C. Wheeler, J. Hutchons, Esq, John L. Craigie, Esq, Francis Ord Marshal], Esq; Chas. Stokes, Esq; Chas. R. Tatham, Esq; George Gandell, Esq; Capt Freestun, R. N.; R. Flowers, Esq; John A. D. Wake, Esq; Alfred Cox, Esq; George Paine, Esq; R. Cooke, Esq; John G. Morgan, Esq; Charle3 Smart, Esq; and R. S. Wilkinson, Esq; with power to substitute any other member for those who may decline. And it was further resolved, on the motion of Mr R, S. Wilkin- son, seconded by Mr Edward James Smith, that, in the event of his lordship consenting, a subscription be opened among the members, of ( and not to exceed) the sum of one guinea. In fur- therance of the above object, no less a sum than fifty guineas was subscribed during the evening by the several members then present. The entries for the third and last match of the season closed on Thursday night with eight boats for the fourth class ; 1st prize, value thirty sovereigns, with a ten guinea silver tankard to the second boat. The Emily will make her debut in the river, having been built expressly for this match. YACHT. TONS. PORT. OWNEP.. 1. SILVER CLOUD. ... 7 London .... Mr Robert Hewett 2. WAVE 8 London .... Mr H. K.

Members who have paid their annual subscriptions may obtain extra steamboat tickets of the stewards, at the club house, St James's- street. RANELAGH YACHT CLUB. The ordinary monthly meeting of the Ranelagh Yacht Club was held at t he club house, Swan Tavern, Battersea Bridge, last Wednesday evening, the 8th inst, when the Commodore, as usual, took the chair, After the reading of the minutes of the previous meeting, and the transaction of some formal business, the meeting proceeded to ballot for new members, and the fol- lowing gentlemen wore declared to be duly elected, viz:— Messrs James Crispe, John J. Fisk, J. Gambardella, Harvey B. Holl, Thomas V. Morgan, J. W. Ridgway ( of the yacht Blue Bell, 6 tons), Edward Webb, and Charles Wilkinson. The secretary read a letter from Mr Tidbury, soliciting support for the Thames Regatta; and we hope members and their friends will respond to the appeal, for this is now the only regatta especially for the benefit of watermen, and if it should be allowed again to die out, there is but little chance of its ever being revived. The senior auditor, Mr Hopewell, then made a statement of the condition of the finances, from which it appeared that on the 30th June there was a balance in favour of the club of nearly £ 40. A formal resolution as to the way of making the audit was then agreed to, on the motion of Mr Iago. The second match of the season is to take place on Thursday, the 23d of Julv; entries to close next Wednesday, the 15th, at ten p. m., at the club house. Yachts which have not been measured this season must be at Battersea Bridge for that purpose at three p. m. on Wednes- day, the 22d, and at their stations on the day of the match at two p. m. Citizen H has been engaged to accompany the match, and. will leave Mr Greaves's, Lindsey- row, at two p. m. precisely. A quadrille band, refreshments, & c, will be provided. All mem- bers not in arrear will be admitted free, and may obtain tickets for their friends from the officers of the club, or the following gentlemen, who will act as stewards, viz, Messrs Chasemore, Freeman, Gable, E. Greaves, G. J. Iago, A. H. Morgan, Oriel, and M. Ward. The Commodore stated that the sailing com- mittee, the stewards of the late anniversary dinner, and the stewards for the next match, will meet at the club house next Wednesday evening, at eight o'clock, and then adiourned the meeting. VNIINNN - NNR> TR TJAVAT PFR- ATTA | great and marked improvement is visible, and the manner B FJIFLLBLIUKII DULJS. JCIUI Ai< I'UMI^' i Which she overhauled the Crusader and took fourth place in The Pembroke Dock Royal Regatta, under the patronage of the last rounding of the Kish Light, during the match for the her Majesty the Queen, and his Royal Highness the; Prince of | 100 sovereigns, was really beautiful. With the alterations which Wales, which took place on Tuesday last, July 7, win long be ; j| r Patterson purposes making in her during the winter, she remembered by yachtsmen, as they had an opportunity of judg- w; n be as dangerous an antagonist next year as one need iug the capabilities of the far- famed harbour of Milford Haven, • — for such a pastime. For several days previous the weather was in a very unsettled state, and threatened to prdve anything. but propitious, and on the Monday it blew half a gale of wind from the westward, but towards the evening it gradually moderated down, and on Tuesday morning there remained but a nice fresh wind from the W. N. W. About half way across the harbour was moored the Government vessel the Quail, Mr Ivemy master, decorated with bunting from the mast- head to the water's edge, and which was the committee boat for the day. The Government hulk, the Hope, being stationed somewhat lower down, was set apart for the fair sex, with the addition of the band of the Dock- yard Battalion. The whole appearance was splendid. At anchor in the harbour, gaily decorated with flags, were the Extrava ganza, 48 tons, Sir Percy Shejley, Bart; the Harlequin ( schooner), 80 tons, C. Penrose, Esq ; Iris ( schooner), 22 tons, G. O'Neill, Esq ; Le Reve ( schooner), 40 tons, Jas. Thorman, Esq ; Challenger, T. Barnes, Esq, and several others, including the Government steamers, gaily decorated, as well as the Irish steamers and the whole of the merchantmen ten o'clock being the hour named for the rendezvous on board the committee boat, and at that hour the following cutter yachts had their owners to draw for places:— . mwn- antaa .* X6& OWNER. Sir Percy Shelley, Bart. J. Atkins, Esq. S. Padley, Esq, jun. H. J. Bathe, Esq. E. Gibson, Esq. r r ^ late of the value of £ 50, given in honour of the Prince of Wales's patronage, and after a great deal of discussion with the stewards on the subject of the shifting ballast ( on which, by the bye, no definite conclusion was arrived at), the yachts got to their buoys, aud at 11: 50 the gun fired, and they all got away together, all keeping up except the Emmett, who very dexterously slipped the buoy and lay right down the harbour, but in verification of the short cut not being always the best, had to tack before she cleared the Caris rocks, aud in so doing carried away her main halyards, the sail coming down with a run. She, however, contrived to lash the sail to the mast, and kept on, meanwhile the other vessels passed her, the Mosquito gaining the lead every minute, the Vigilant aud the Blue Belle keeping on. The course was to start from off Hobb's Point, go round the Lewis Buoy, back round a boat moored off Pembroke Ferry, down round the Stack Rock ( keeping all the marks on the starboard hand) and back to the place of starting to win ; aud in coming up the Mosquito rounded the boat moored off the Ferry at 2: 32, the Emmett at 2: 39, the Vigilant at 2: 47, and the Blue Belle at 3: 6. The Leander met with some mishap going round, and put back. The Mosquito, in passing the flag- ship, had to luff up for some two or three minutes, to avoid running down one of the six- oared racing gigs which happened to be racing at the time. On the return the wind evidently freshened up, and the Mosquito arrived off the starting vessel at 5: 11: 50, the Emmet following closely in her wake at 5: 18: 30, there- fore winning by 4min 35sec, as the difference of time for ton- nage the Mosquito had to givo the Emmet was llmin losec. Both the vessels were admirably well sailed, and did very great credit to their owners. The Bmmett is now pretty well known by name, although this is the first prize she has won, having been beaten by the Mosquito in the Thames, The SCHOONER RACE aid not fill, consequently the prize was not given. The RACE for CUTTER YACHTS under 23 tons found only three entries :— NAME. TONS. OWNER, | NAME. TONS. OWNER. FLIRT 8.... R. Battley, Esq FLIRT .... 18. ... CaptO'Bryen VESPER 15.... G. A. Bevan, Esq J The prize was a piece of plate, value guineas, and the course was Sown round the Stack Rock, back round the boat moored off Pembroke Ferry, down round the Stack Rock ( keep- ing all the marks on the starboard hand), and back to the place of starting to win. The gun fired at 12: 43, when the Vesper and small Flirt got immediately under weigh. It was sometime before the other Flirt could get her mainsail up, owing to one of the blocks being foul. However, she pursued the same course as the Emmett in the other race, but off the dockyard she was obliged to cast her boat adrift, and on reaching tha Caris however the Vesper was greatly ahead. On rounding the flag- boat moored off the Ferry, the Vesper got round at 3: 42, and the Flirt at 3: 44, evidently showing the superiority of the vessel. In going the second time round the course the wind freshened, and the Flirt arrived off the winning vessel at 6: 33: 33, and the Vesper at 6: 36: 40, the Flirt winning by two minutes. The small Flirt did not put in an appearance for some time after. In the RACE for SAILING BOATS under 9 tons, the course was round the Amphitrite, back rouud the boat moored off Pembroke Ferry, down round the Amphitrite ( keeping all the marks on the starboard hand), and back to the place of starting, to win; three boats entered. NAME, TONS. OWNER. | NAME. TONS. OWNER. FOAM 7. .. O'Lary, Esq FREAK 6.... Capt AUpass SYLPH 4 J. B. Harris, Esq | The prize in this race was a piece of plate, value £ 10, and, at about 1: 30, a very good start was effected, all getting away well together, the Sylph having the lead. The Freak rounded the flag- boat at 4: 19, and the Sylph at 4: 22, after a sharp contest; but the superior powers of the Freak told in the second round, she arriving off the starting- vessel nearly one hour before the Sylph. During the day there was some well- contested four- oared and six- oared boat races, sailing matches, duck hunts, and an ama- teur race between the officers of the dockyard and the officers of the garrison, in four- oared gigs. The start was decidedly in fa- vour of the garrison, but they lost it in the first six boats' length, and never regained, the other boat giving up before going the distance once. The whole of the arrangements of the committee were everything that could be wished. The dinner took place at the Victoria Hotel, and about fifty gentlemen sat down, the chair being filled by J, Adams, Esq, aud the vice- chair by J. Thompson, Esq. Among the party were Sir Percy Shelley, Bart, E. Gibson, Esq, G. A. Bevan, Esq, Lieut- Col Marriott, R. A., Capt Jackson, Lieut Wetherley, R. N., George Arber, Esq, the hon secretary A. Ridgway, Esq, of London, & c, & c, & c. After the usual loyal toasts the chairman, in a very neat and appropriate speech, presented the prizes, the 50 Guinea Cup to Mr E. Gibson— a magnificent Silver Salver and Cover, from the establishment of Messrs Johnson and Walker, of Aldersgate- street; . the second prize ( a Claret Jug) to Captain O'Bryen ; and the other prizes to the secretary, as the winners were not there to receive them. Owing to there being a garrison ball the chair was vacated at a rather early hour. BIDEFORD REGATTA. The Bideford Regatta took place on Wednesday last, and the weather was exceedingly auspicious. Throughout the day there was a gentle breeze from the nor'- west— just enough to cause a ripple upon the water and to fill the sails of the pleasure boats. The excursion train from Plymouth, Exeter, & c, swelled the number o£ spectators, but not perhaps to the extent that was reckoned upon— which might be attributed to the uncertainty of the weather, which, at the commencement of the week, was remarkably humid. The tide did not serve till the evening, and the regatta could not in itself be said to commence until nearly half- past five o'clock. The former part of the day was devoted to horse, pony, donkey, aud foot- racing, for small prizes. About half- past five the signal gun for preparation was fired, and the different crews were then actively engaged in getting ready. The Robert, of Bideford, London trader, was placed at the dis- posal of the committee, the vessel being moored just off the quay ; and the following contests took place :— For YACHTS not exceeding 30 feet from stern to stern- post was offered a silver goblet. The Corophy ( S. Cox), tho Volant ( Hammett), and the Jessie ( Martin), were entered. The Coro- phy seemed the favourite, and the contest lay between her and the Jessie. The yachts went down the river in capital style, but some doubts were afterwards expressed as to their return that night. When these observations were made the tide was ebbing fast and the wind had dropped. About half- past eight o'clock, however, the Corophy and Jessie made their appear- ance, aud almost universal accord proclaimed the victory in favour of the Corophy. The joy of the Corophyites was, how- ever, checked for a time, it being noticed that she fell into a calm, while the Jessie was coming up very prettily with a fresh breeze. The wind, however, again filled the Corophy's sails, and she reached the winning buoy, which was placed just below the bridge, a few seconds only previous to the arrival of the Jessie. These two yachts appeared to be very equally matched. The Volant did not appear. FIRST- CLASS SAILING BOATS.— In this match three boats started— the Taw ( Mills), the Lady of the Isle ( S. Fishley), and the Lady of the Lake ( Fishley). This race caused much excite- ment, and the first prize, of £ 2, was won by the Taw; the second, of £ 1, by the Lady of the Isle ; and the third, of 15s, by the Lady of the Lake. SIX- OARED PILOT GIGS.— Three boats started, and No. 1 ( Appledore) won the first prize of £ 5 ; the second of £ 2 was awarded to the Reform ( Ilfracombe); and the third of £ 1 5s was won by the Teazer ( Appledore). SIX- OAEED GIGS, extra prize of £ 3 10s.— The previous high capabilities of True Blue ( Bideford) and the alleged boastings of her crew, had caused some feeling to be engendered against that boat, and to " take the shine out of her" the Pride of the Tor- ridge was expressly built. This match, therefore, created con- siderable excitement, especially amongst those who were in the secret, and the struggle for the laurel was intensely severe. Two boats only raced, and triumph fell to the lot of the Pride of the Torridge. FOUR- OARED SHIP'S BOATS.— In this match five boats started for the prizes, viz, the Clementhe, James Mock, Vivid, Princess Royal, and Contest. The first prize of £ 1 10s was won by Con- test; second, 15s, by Clementhe; and third, 7s 6d, by the Princess Royal. TWO- OARED SHIP'S BOATS.— The first prize of £ 1 was won by True Blue; the second of 10s by Lively, and the third of 5s by Smart. TWO- OAEED GIGS, not exceeding 22 feet in length.— Three boats started, and this match was spoken of as being very ably contested. The Zingari ( C. W. Hole) won the first prize of £ 1; the second of 10s was won by Ismene ( Patey); and the third of 7s 6d by the Maid of the Valley ( Dempster). A PUNT RACE wound up the sports. The Princess Royal steamer, which plies between Bristol and Bideford, left its moorings, Bast- the- Water, at 5: 25 on an excur- sion trip down the river. The deck was literally crammed with passengers, who were much gratified with the trip. The vessel re- turned to her wharf about ten minutes before seven. The management of the regatta was placed in the hands of Messrs B. R. Pyke, T. B. Chanter, W. F. Williams, F. Lee, and Captain Shadwick, Mr C. W. Hole acted as hon secretary. The labours of these gentlemen to cater for the amusement of the public were eminently successful. The regatta supper took place at the New Inn, at which T. B. Chanter, Esq, presided. DUBLIN BAY REGATTA. ME EDITOE : There have been few matches sailed in this btfy which have caused more excitement among yachtsmen than those for the Royal St George's £ 60 Plate on the 30th of June, and the £ 100 Prize on Wednesday, the 1st of July. The Mos- quito, the heroine of so many hard- sailed and well- won matches, came to the buoys in a condition fit to race for a man's life ; her new mast, two feet longer than the former one, looked a startling stick indeed, but then her gaff was reduced proportion- ately, so that although she had more hoist, she had much less head to her mainsail; her canvas this year is beautiful, and with one or two trifling exceptions might be pronounced fault- less. We think in her palmiest days she never was in finer or better racing order than she has been brought out by Mr Groves this year. Rumour has long been busy with Will Fyfe's last clipper, the Oithona, and justly so, for a finer cutter never swam the ocean. En passant, Mr Editor, I have heard many inquiries as to the meaning of the name she bears, and whence it was derived. It will be found in Ossian, and it sig- nifies " The Virgin of the Waves." In these matches a question had to be solved, viz, Could an 80- ton cutter give her time to such a flying 50 as the Mosquito, or at still more disadvantage to such clippers as the Extravaganza, Cyclone, Stella, Flirt, Crusader, or Vigilant? This question has not yet been solved. The Oithona came to the buoys not in the condition, by any means, that we should liked to have seen— not from any fault of her owner, but by circumstances which he could not control. She met with very heavy weather oil her passage down, and carried away her mainhalyard block, her bowsprit whiskers, and sundry others of her gear and rigging. These, coupled with the fact of her having a new master and a new crew, strange to Scotch vessels, and not prepared for racing, will ex- plain what reasons there were for her not being prepared pro- perly to take that position as an out- and- out clipper which we have little dcubt she will. The Extravaganza was in faultless order, and is certainly wonderfully improved in every respect, and will win many cups for her owner yet; her sailing on Tues- day and Wednesday, and the manner in which she was handled, was the theme of universal admiration. We never saw any of Wanhill's boats hold a better wind; she did not head- reach near so fast, but at times she looked a point and a half to windward of Mosquito, and fully as close as the Oithona in the second day, and sometimes to windward of her. The Stella our readers well know was overmatched, and we think much of her speed is greatly interfered with by the manner in which her main rigging is set up, not with lanyards, but with screws directly connected with the channel plates. Now with wire rigging you must have some little play to ease your mast; hemp lanyards will do this, but we have little doubt that screws bind a sailing- vessel's rigging up too much. The Cyclone is another vessel in which a wish to meet. Her owner deserves success ; he is a warm aud sterling supporter of the noble science of yacht sail- ing, and the faster the vessel that is opposed to him, the more desirous he is for a contest. The Crusader is a beautiful little vessel, and we foresee a long career of triumph for her ; and, though last not least, we cannot omit noticing the hardy little Flirt, which, upon a day when most men would have pre- ferred remaining at the anchorage, gallantly laid out in as heavy a sea as we ever witnessed iu the month of June, along- side of vessels five times her tonnage. On the first day it blew a very fresh gale from E. by N. to E. N. E., with a nasty cross tide sea, such as would try a vessel most severely iu hull, spars, and rigging. The Oithona took the lead from the flag- boat, and, as we said the week before last, power must always be served, and she certainly proved what a powerful, able cutter she is, for a nastier sea we have seldom sailed in. The Mosquito aud Extra- vaganza were sailed with great and determined pluck ; and at times, when their jibs were half filled with a towering surge, we fully expected to see the bowsprits torn out of them. The Oithona lost several minutes in this race bv going into Candle- stick Bay, under Howth, to look for the flag- boat which should have been there, but whieh had carried away her mast, and was obliged to run for safety of herself and crew. The sternmost boats, seeing the Oithona coming out of this bay, of course stood on direct for Foolbeg flag- boat. On the second day the Mosquito came out, wary as a hawk; there was much less wind, but still a considerable chop of a sea; the wind, as on the previous day, right into the bay and across the tide, so that the" vessels on the outer course to the Kish Light were close hauled, and contending with a nasty chopping rolling wave that made them stagger again. The Mosquito made a splendid start, going out of the harbour like a greased flash of lightning, the Extravagauza hard in her tracks, with the Vigilant, Cyclone, and Crusader. The Oithona got regularly hampered between two merchant brigs, which were allowed to come to anchor scarcely a half cable's length from the starting buoys. The wind blowing right into the har- bour, she had to make two tacks between them before proper way could be got on her to clear either of them by half a tack, and she consequently hung very heavily before life could be got into her, the other vessels getting a clear five minutes' load of her. She overhauled them one by one, but too late, the Extrava- ganza being the last she collared. She ran the Mosquito very fast to the Poolbeg, and to the harbour's mouth, but she had not then proper head or top canvas to contest a light wind struggle with such a vessel as the Mosquito, who moves down the wind a speck beneath a snow- white cloud.— Yours, & c, VANDERDECKEN. ISLE OF MAN REGATTA. The regatta at this favourite station promises equal success to those of the preceding two years; the Oithona, Crusader, Stella, Cyclone, Violante, Nimrod, Nina, Alma, Violet, a screw steam yacht, have already arrived. It is now blowing half a gale at N. W., and if it continues the regatta will have to be postponed for a day or so. For the Isle of Man Purse, of £ 50 open to all yachts belonging to royal yacht olubs, a time race, the following vessels are entered:— YACHT. TONS. OWNER. 1. OITHONA 80 J. M. Rowan, Esq. 2. CYCLONE 41 W. J. Patterson, Esq. 3. STELLA 41 > C. T. Couper, Esq, 4. CKUSADER 30 J. Spiers, Esq. For the Welcome Cup, a purse of £ 30, on the second day, there are entered :— YACHT. IONS. OWNEB. 1.

Besides, there are several prizes for small boats, and various others for rowing, sculling, & c. A rather novel feature will be added to this regatta in the shape of horse races on the sands in the afternoon of the second day, when the yachts' crews will have an opportunity of testing their powers on the deck of a four- poster. A ball at the Castle Mona, and a display of fireworks off St Mary's Tower, on the Conister Rock, will con elude the amusements. ROYAL BOSTON YACHT CLUB. The monthly meeting of this club was held on Thursday last, at the club house, White Hart Hotel. There was a good attend- ance of members, Mr C. Anderson, Commodore in the chair. It was agreed that the regatta should be held on the 20 th August, and that an alteration should be made in the course. The yachts instead of going so far out to sea, will go twice round the skull- rig buoy; thus parties at Frieston Shore will have an oppor- tunity of watching the yachts during nearly the whole of the race. Mr H. Ingram, M. P., has, with his usual liberality, intimated to the committee his intention of giving a cup to be run for. There will be three classes of yachts, aud arrangements will be made, so that every yacht starting wiil have a chance of obtain- ing the Ingram cup, in addition to the prizes offered by the club. THE LATE R. T. Y. C. SCHOONER MATCH. " Fere libenter homines id quod volunt credunt." ME EDITOE : As " C. M." has thought proper, in your paper of the 5th, to make comments upon my letter in yours of last week, I take leave to offer a few remarks thereon: andas" C. M." seems so well able to expound the meaning of the rules of the R. T. Y. C. ( which no one else can), the public should be greatly obliged to him to add to the obligation, and inform them by what rule the club precludes the giving of the prizes to two vessels of the same class! " C. M." says: " I venture to say that it has, long ago, been decided the two prizes should not be given to the sama. class." Perhaps he will be kind enough to inform your readers how long ago; and, if such rule does; exist, and was agreed to, why is it not printed with the other rules of the club ? Your readers will also be glad to learn, from " C. M.," on what former occasion in a schooner match two second- class vessels came in first, beating all the first class ! Will " C. M." venture toassert, from his own knowledge, that this visionary rule was not made on board the Prince of Wales steamer, after the vessels had started, and it was seen that the two second- class vessels would inevitably be first and second? The printed rule, No. 26, is clear enough: " That if a yacht of an inferior class shall come in ahead of a yacht of a superior class, she shall receive the prize to ivliich she would have been entitled if she had belonged to such superior class. Now, a, fortiori, the Vestal being a yacht of an inferior class, wins the prize for the yachts of a superior class— ergo, the prize of the superior class is gone! Upon what grounds, then, do the committee, in defiance of their own rule ( 26) deprive the Wildfire of the prize for the second class ( or inferior vessels) ? Surely the superior class vessels, after losing their own prize, are not entitled to the prize of the se- cond- class yachts; and the Wildfire coming in second with the Vestal, is, in common fairness and equity, entitled to it. " Comparisons are always odious," which " C. M." would have done well to remember ; they are also invidious, when he draws them respecting the merits and value of different yachts, showing a strong personal Mas and feeling iu denominating the Vestal and Wildfire " sailing machines." The owners of both can well afford to pass over such allusions. I have just seen the sailing master of the Wildfire, who informs me that on their way to the Thames at daylight they fell in with the Zouave in a gale of wind, undw fore and main trysails, close reefed fore- staysail aud storm jib, off Worthing. When about six miles off Hastings, at noon, the " sailing machine" had beaten her entirely out of sight in a dead beat to windward 1 The " sailing machine" arrived at Gravesend at 10: 30 the next day, having been hove to for six hours and a half off Dover, and the Zouave came in about three p. m. I will also ask " C. M." why ( if he belongs to the committee) the yacht3 did not take up their respective positions by drawing for them, and why one vessel is permitted to have her forestaysail up three or four feet aud another is ordered to haul hers close down ? In conclusion, I would strongly, if I were " C. M.," object to anything like favouritism, or soreness, for if we are to have anything like the " tricks of the Turf" introduced into the noble and national amusement of yachting, it is time gentlemen laid themselves up " in ordinary." Most of them who can " run" can " read," aud require no legal quibbles or sophistry in the explanation of plain language. By this unjust decision of the R. T. Y. C. com- mittee, yours, & c, • A SUFFERED. ME EDITOE : As a person who was much interested in the second, boats should start on the Thursday. I should have imagined that, considering the unpleasant circumstances which arose in connection with the same race last year, they would have been more decided and more explicit. And I am of opinion that but for this maladministration the prize would have been won by, and awarded to, another person.— Yours, &' c, CYMBA. THE LATE DURHAM REGATTA. Mr EDITOK : Your paper of the 28th ult contains a series of charges ( lately also published in the Northern Daily Express and Durham Advertiser) against the stewards of the late Durham Regatta, and signed " A Lover of Fair Play." As these charges have been/ w% answered in detail in the Durham Ad- vertiser of the 2d ult, I will only state here,, that the whole of ttoem are false, and evidently proceed from some envious and disappointed competitor at the regatta, who has queer notions of his own as to what " fair play " is.— Yours, & c, O. P. C. ROYAL THAMES NATIONAL REGATTA. An advertisement in another column contains the programme of this regatta for the present year. In addition to the Cham- pion race we observe that the committee have determined to offer prizes for competition by watermeu in four oars, pair oars, and sculls. The prizes for some of the minor races are on a somewhat reduced scale from those given last year ; but it must be borne in mind that even now they exceed those offered at any other regatta in the kingdom. We are informed that should sufficient subscriptions be received before the days of the regatta these amounts will be increased. This, however, depends upon those who take an interest in aquatic sports,^ nd who certainly hitherto have not come forward so liberally as might be ex- pected. At the last meeting of the committee the advisability of dispensing with a considerable number of the races for gen- tlemen and tradesmen was seriously discussed, but after a lengthened deliberation it was resolved that, as these contests entail little if any expense on the subscribed funds, beyond the amount of entrance fees received from the competitors, they should remain unaltered from last year. The determination of the committee to allow no combination of the watermen of the metropolis with those of the North in the formation of crews for the. Champion race will, it is conceived, have the effect of imparting even additional interest to this ex- citing contest, Tke Thames Subscription Club have again offered their coat, badge, freedom, and money prizes for com- petition by apprentices. In our next impression we shall give a list of subscriptions received since the publication of the last statement, and we would earnestly impress upon the admirers of good watermen's rowing the necessity of their rendering their support to the committee without delay; for we can se- riously remind the public that it remains with them alone whether they choose that this great regatta should be continued. THAMES SUBSCRIPTION CLUB. On Monday evening the ordinary monthly meeting of this club was held at the Star and Garter, Richmond- hill, the chair being occupied by the president, Mr Philipps, who, after the usual routine business, brought uuder the consideration of the members the grant towards the funds of the Royal Thames National Regatta. A lengthened discussion ensued, which was terminated by the adoption of a proposition made by Mr Draper, the treasurer, viz, that a coat, badge, freedom, and money prizes for apprentices should be again given by the club. In ad- dition to this liberal grant, a private subscription list to the regatta was opened in the room, which was headed by Mr Philipps, Mr Draper and Mr Herbert Smith with £ 5 5s each, and filled up by minor contributions from other members, amounting in the aggregate to £ 30. The August meeting of the club was fixed to take place at the Trafalgar Hotel, Greenwich. BARNES AND MORTLAKE REGATTA. We have before alluded to the revival of this favourite little regatta, which is to take place on Wednesday, July 22, and have now only to call attention to the advertisement in another column, from which it will be seen that the exertions of the committee have enabled them to put forward a very excellent bill of fare. It includes a four- oared race for silver presentation cups, open to gentlemen amateurs; a pair- oared race, open to all; a scullers race, in which the champions only are barred ; besides pair- oared races for gigs, both outrigged and old- fashioned— one of which is confined to tradesmen of the neigh- bourhood. All entries are to be made in person before ten o'clock on Saturday, July 18, at the committee room, White Hart, Barnes. No prize will be given for a race unless there are three entries, but there is no stipulation as to the number of starters, which seems a very equitable arrangement. AQUATICS AT WESTMINSTER. On Wednesday last, the 8th inst, a race took place between an eight of the Seniors and the Schools. The course was from Vauxhall to Battersea Bridge. The crews were: 1, W. Wrirgt; 2, E. Whitaker; 3, H. Chapman; 4, H. L. Thompson; 5, W. Henly; 6, W. V. Williams; 7, R. A. Eden; 8, T. W. Watson; T. K. Gaskell ( cox).— 1, T. Tomlinsou ; 2, A. Hughes; 3, T. Wheeler; 4, W. Dowdeswell; 5, E. Berens; 6, A. Walker; 7, S. French ; 8, A. Womersley; E. Morland ( cox). After a very even start the two boats kept oar and oar beyond Chelsea Bridge, where Mr Berens' crew drew slightly ahead, but Mr Waters, by a good spurt, placed his boat nearly even again, but owing to his having a boat tkat was rather inferior to the other, he could not keep it up for long, so the other boat drew ahead and passed through Battersea Bridge rather more than a length ahead, and won, after a very close and well- contested race. success of the Wildfire, allow me to offer a few remarks in ad' dition to and in explanation of your very impartial account of the late schooner match of the Royal Thames Club. In the first place I must allude to the length of time in getting under weigh. This arose from the secretary coming on board whilst the Vice- Commodore, Mr Eversfield, and the captain were below sealing up the ballast, and ordering the forestaysail to be lowered flat on deck, whilst the May Fly was allowed to keep hers four or five feet up the stay. This order necessitating the unlacing of the sail from the boom, caused the loss of two hands in hoisting the mainsail, they being engaged relating the staysail. Previous to this the pilot had complained to the harbour- master of a brig lying in the way, and requested she might be shifted, but with- out avail. The Wildfire was therefore obliged to go to leeward of her, a very unfair position to be placed in, considering the cap- tain had not the opportunity of taking his moorings by lot, as I believe is usual. With respect to the Aquiline's protesfrof foul- ing, the facts are that the Wildfire, being on the Aquiline's weather quarter, and the Vice- Commodore passing the Wildfire on her port tack, the Wildfire was obliged to bear up and go astern of her, being thus thrown down upon the Aquiline much closer than she otherwise would have been. While thus drawing on the Aquiline the Wildfire was hailed by the Aquiline to go about, although in the middle of the river, and no chance of Aquiline's going ashore. Wildfire's helm was, however, put down, and when about, the Wildfire not being very quick in paying off, the captain hailed the Aquiline to ease her helm, which npt being done, and the Aquiline paying off on the Wildfire's starboard quarter, her whisker fouled the Wildfire's bulwarks on the starboard quarter, thus proving to all practical seamen that the fouling was on the part of the Aquiline, and not on that of the Wildfire, One word now on the very improper manner in which the steamers accompanying the match are allowed to interfere with the sailing; for instance, in this exciting match, when every stitch of canvas and breath of air was of importance, in one of the Wildfire's tacks on the south shore, the Orion continued on the Wildfire's weather, going easy, notwithstanding the hailing aud waving of Mr Harcourt and the crew. Again, on entering the Lower Hope on the return, the Prince of Wales came on the Wildfire's weather when she was scarcely feeling the weight of her canvas, the Vestal at the same time leaving her fast. I am induced to write this letter ( for the truth of which I refer you to the gentleman who was placed on board the Wildfire on the part of the R. T. Y. Club, and also to her captain) in the hope that it may be the means of preventing any cause for dissatis- faction in future matches, and that every vessel may have an equally fair chance.— Yours, & c, AQUATIC, THE LATE HARWICH REGATTA. ME EDITOE : The notice you take of the spirited conduct of the owner of the Quickstep at the Harwich Regatta, and the insertion of a letter signed " Fairplay," lead me to believe you an admirer of the one, and most unlikely to act contrary to the other. Yet, sir, allow me very respectfully to say, somehow or other, some of your remarks on one or two occasions are calcu- lated very unfairly to injure me, without, I must suppose, a wish on your part to do so. I am an ardent lover of fairplay, and now seek it at your hands. You have coupled the Silver Star and your remarks respecting her with the builder of the Margaret, in such a way as cannot fail to lead your numerous readers to suppose the system on which they have been built is a failure, and myself, the designer of it, only entitled to ridicule. This I complain of, because it is a well- known fact that the Mar- garet has far exceeded even my own hopes in point of speed, having repeatedly accomplished what no other vessel afloat has ever done, and that the little yacht you speak in such praise of maintaining her character, as being the best yacht of her tonnage afloat, has so much of the Margaret's form introduced into her after body as may yet lead to a lawsuit for infringement of my patent right; this is very well known in the neighbourhood in which she was built. The last fact you will oblige me by no ticing. The Silver Star was a departure from my original de- sign, to try if greater length would bean improvement; indeed, she was built where the opening she had to pass through into the water was but an inch or two wider than herself. She was hurriedly built, rigged and ballasted with rough stones, and in the Bristol Channel, with very strong wind, in a tideway running 6 or 7 knots, making a heavy aud dangerous sea for small craft, she contended with vessels of double her tonnage, and as long as she could carry a pair of reefs weathered and fore- reached upou every one of them, I have not seen her this season, but shall be much mistaken, notwithstanding all this is past, if she is not destined to be a Blink Bonny yet.— Yours, & c, July 6,1857. G. R. TOYELL. ROYAL KINGSTON- ON- THAMES REGATTA. ME EDITOE: It has again unfortunately occurred that there should be a doubt about the winner of the Senior Scullers Prize at this regatta, and I cannot but think that the committee are wholly to blame. It was stated on the cards of the races that the laws of Henley governed this regatta. Now, I beg to ob- serve that the second boat in the first heat was allowed to row in the grand heat, which is, I believe, contrary, and in distinct violation of the above- mentioned laws, which do not allow the second or any defeated boat in a trial heat to row in the grand; and further, that I believe that on the Wednesday night the committee were undecided as to whether the first, or first aud LONDON UNITY CLUB. A meeting of this club took place ® n Tuesday last, when a four- oared race was appointed to take place on Monday, August 3d ( instead of August 5th as previously announced), for silver cups, presented by Mr Morton of Canterbury Hall, for first prize, and silver prizes for second boat; to start from Barnes Railway Bridge to Putney, one hour after high water ; the fol lowing are the crews:— Yellow— H. Denton, D. Bate, R. Jones, J. Burrows, T. Sheppard ( cox). White— W. Goble, F. Cock, J. Benney, C. Gardner, R. Ayckbourne ( cox). Blue— F. Knight, W. Mills, J. Amor, W. Hazlewood. R. Miller ( cox). Red— T. Selby, G. Watson, J. Bennett, T. Squires, R. Green ( cox). Black— T. Jackson, C. Boden, G. Hirst, E. Tuttle, F. Tomkins ( cox). Mr C. Morton will act as umpire. AQUflJTICS AT ETON COLLEGE. UPPER FOURS.— On Wednesday, July the 8th, was rowed Upper Fours, i. e., fours with the three first captains of the boats for strokes in each. The following formed the crews :— 1. Van de Weyer, 2, Piuckney, 3. Lawless, 4. Baring, Smith ( cox); Windsor side. 1. Severne, 2. Atkinson, 3. Walpole, 4. Lubbock, max, Wood ( cox); Eton side. 1. Hussey, 2. Craven, 3. Hankey, 4. Hardy, Lubbock, mi ( cox); middle stream. Baring, who rowed in a half outrigger of Tolladay's ( the others rowing in outriggers), took the lead at first with a tremendous spurt, Hardy rowing well up with him as far as Upper Hope, Lubbock rather in the rear. Bet ween the Hopes, Baring, who held to a very quick stroke all the way, took a more decided lead, and at Lower Hope was about two lengths ahead ; there was a good race after this all the way, Hardy frequently coming very close to his opponent: he was, however, unable to pass him, and Baring consequently woa by about two boat's lengths ; Lubbock bringing up the rear several boat's lengths behind him. The course was from Rushes down to Windsor Bridge. SECOND HEAT OF PULLING SWEEPST'AKES.— The pairs for this race started in the following order on Friday, July 3 :— Halsey, Van de Weyer, Hopwood ( cox), 1 Windsor; Lawless, At- kinson, Smith ( cox), 2 Windsor ; Hankey, Lubbock, Lubbock mi ( cox), 2 Eton ; Pinckney, Hussey, Clayton ( cox), 1 Eton. Hankey and Lubbock took the lead at first at a tremendous pace, and were about a boat's length ahead at the Railway Bridge. Here Lawless and Atkinson began to come up, and having the inside turn at Bargeman's Bush, succeeded in coming up with them, and slightly taking the lead. After this a beautiful race ensued up to Lower Hope, the two boats being almost oar and oar all the way. Between the Hopes Lawless and Atkinson began to take a more decided lead, which they gradually bettered up to Rushes, and finally won easily by 25sec. Hankey sprung his oar at Rushes, and so prevented the chance of a good race down, which was somewhat anxiously expected by the spectators. In the meantime a capital race was going oil for second and third places. Pinckney and Hussey, who had changed places after the first heat, Hussey rowing stroke instead of Pinckney, got on with a bad start, and Van de Weyer and Halsey accordingly took the lead, which they kept up. to Rushes, the other pair rowing close behind them all the way. The race was kept on all the way down to Lower Hope, when Hussey and Piuckney at last drew ahead, and eventually beat their opponents by several boat's lengths. Time, 22min 40sec; lmin between the second and third. CLIFFORD'S PLAN FOR LOWERING BOATS. We extract from the Hampshire Telegraph the following in corroboration of the opinion we have so often given of the prac- tical utility of this contrivance now happily established:—" It is so often our sad lot to recite instances where men falling over- board are lost before any assistance can be rendered when a ship is under weigh, that it gives us great pleasure to be able to give a case in which the opposite state of things has resulted, and merely through the ship being provided with proper means of accomplishing the desired end. The case to which we refer is the Washington Irving, and which has caused a good deal of conversation at Southampton, from the fact of the vessel leaving that port, and Mr John Waters, the pilot, being on board at the time. He states that ' On the 19th lie took charge of the ship Washington Irving, Captain Isaac Durant, commander, bound for Sydney, with 308 Government emigrants on board. At about seven p. m., off Lepe Middle Buoy, a violent squall struck her from the southward, carrying away the jib- boom and foretopgal- lant- mast. In clearing away the wreck one of the crew fell over- board ; the life- buoy wasatoncethrownto him, and while the vessel was going through the! water at about seven knots, a boat, fitted with Clifford's lowering gear, was lowered, with five hands iu lier, and instantly clear of the ship; in fact, so quickly was it accom- plished that before the vessel was more than four or five lengths i'rom the man the boat was in the water going to his assistance. This is the four th instance during the last few months in which the boats of ships fitted by her Majesty's Emigration Commis- sioners in this way have been the means of saving life, and the same course has been adopted by the Admiralty in all transport and service ships." How generally the invention may be applied is best proved by the fact that, at the present moment, the large 30 feet cutters of her Majesty's Agamemnon, taking in the marine cable at Greenwich; the life- boats and cutters of the Australasian ( a new steamer of 2,800 tons, the largest ever built upoia the Clyde); and the light gig and jolly boat of the Capricorn, the beautiful schooner yacht of C. R. M. Talbot, Esq, M. P., Vice- Commodore of the R. Y. S., are all now being fitted. DEATH OF THE COMMODORE OF THE NEW YORK YACHT CLUB. By recent intelligence from New York we regret to announce the death of John C. Stevens, Esq, the Commodore of the New York Yacht Club, a name familiar to our yachting friends, more particularly from his having been the owner of the celebrated yacht America, which he introduced to our waters in the year of the Great Exhibition. " This eminent citizen of the United States, distinguished alike for his genius, enterprise, wealth, and spirit, died on the 10th ult, at Hoboken, at the advanced age of seventy- two, of enlargement of the heart, after an eventful career. He was a practical as well as a scientific farmer. At the same time he was deeply interested in experiments in naval architecture, steamboats, and railroad enterprises, in connection with his brothers. At an early period of his life he became con- nected with the Turf, and was a great patron of breeders of blood- stock. So tarty as 1824 he won a match of 5,000 dollars with Count Piper, and several very pretty pickings with Lady Jackson. The deceased and Governor King of New York were respectively presidents or vice- presidents of the New York Jockey Club for a period of twenty- one years, each of whom at a club dinner declined a re- election upon the score of ' having served their time out.' Mr S.' s training stable on Long Island was very extensive; and he employed two trainers, William Baxter and Isaac Van Leer, Each had a separate string. As every horse left the stable for exercise, trial, or public race, it was led over a large platform- scales, and its weight accurately ascertained and recorded. Mr S. was highly educated ( a graduate of Columbia College), and on paper eloquent, I while his conver- sational powers were delightful. He impressed by his earnest, genial, aud cordial manner; and no one, a stranger to him, would have imagined in seeing or listening to him, that that plain, quiet, amiable gentleman was about the best farmer in the State— was the first to construct steamboats and railroads in America on a large scale— was for years at the head of the northern Turf— the originator of yachting, the commander of the America in her illustrious victory in British waters— and, finally, a millionaire, and no other than John C. Stevens 1 His name alone is his best eulogy." We are indebted to Porter's Spirit of the Times for the above extract. shire Grey, up to Cremorne, down again to the Yorkshire Grey, | aud finish at the Magpie and Stump. Won by a boat's length; ' Red second by three lengths.— Third heat: C. Blake and Brown ( red) 1, Reeves and Godwin ( green) 2, W. Blake and Curtis ( light blue) 0. Distance, from Battersea Bridge to a boat at the Col- lege, up to Cremorne, and fiuish at the Yorkshire Grey. Won by half a length; Green second bv a length.— Grand heat: Dark biue 1, yellow 2, red 3, green 4. In this heat the race finished at the Adam and Eve. It was a capital race. Red took the lead, which they held to the college. Dark blue went in advance, and they were all together to Cremorue, where dark blue went away and won by six lengths. Yellow second by four lengths; Red third by three lengths. HENDERSON AND TAIL.— This scullers race for £ 15 a side came off, according to articlss, on Monday last, when three steam- boats were engaged for the meu and their friends. The distance ( about three miles) was from Coalhouse Buoy to a boat moored off Gravesend, aud a better race for tho first raile and a half was never witnessed. The men got pretty well off together, but Henderson soon got a half boat's length from his opponent, who, however, soon came up to him again. They rowed scull and scull for about half a mile, aud then Tall took the lead, but very soon dropped astern again. It was a very exciting affair about this time; first one taking the lead, and then the other; but there being a fresh wind blowing, Henderson proved himself the better waterman, and gradually drew away from his plucky oppo- nent, and came in a winner by about a minute. The money was given up to Henderson the same evening, at Mr Smith's, Three Crowns, Gravesend, aud a liberal subscription was made for the losing man, and everything passed off in a cordial and friendly manner. Tall was trained by Henry Corby, and the winner by the veteran Haffel. BLACKWALL RE& ATTA.— The All Saints' Poplar and Blackwall Regatta will take place on Monday, Aug 3, when a new boat and other prizes will be rowed for by six watermen of Blackwail. First heat: J. Jeffries ( light blue), W. Goldsmith ( green), J. Boswell ( piuk). Second heat: C. Atkins ( yellow), E. Atkins ( dark blue), R. Cory ( red). Third heat: Will be the second and third men in from each division. Fourth heat: The two first men of the first and second heats will row with the first and second men of the third heat. Fifth heat: The two first men of the fourth heat will row for the boat. The boats to start from Blackwall Stairs precisely at ten o'clock, and go twice round each heat; the race to extend from the Folly House to the East India Dock Buoy, the whole under the mauagemeut of Messrs Chapman aud Cory. METROPOLITAN AMATEUR CLUB'S FOUR OAEED MATCH.— The following is a list of the gentlemen who are appointed to row in the above four- oared match, on Tuesday, the 14th iust, from Putney to Barnes Railway Bridge; the start to take place at seven o'clock, p. m.:— Thamesis Club ( dark blue): 1. T. Danks, 2. R. H. Freeman, 3. W. G. Cocks, 4. F. W. Bryant; J. Willing ( cox). Westminster Aquatic Club ( light blue): 1. T. W. Perrott, 2. J. Dodds, 3. J. Harvey, 4. H. Towns; C. Potter ( cox) Juuior United Rowing Club ( red): 1. H. T. Heath, 2. A. D. Houseman, 3. Minchin, 4. W. Johnson ; H. Howard ( cox). West Loudon Rowing Club ( white): 1. E. Main, 2. F. Tyler, 3. G. Chadwin, 4. G. Groves; W. Tyler ( cox). An eight oared cutter will ac- company the crews, in which Mr John Dalton, of Millbank- street, Westminster, will officiate as umpire. HAMPTON REGATTA.— The resident gentry in the neighbour- hood of Hampton have subscribed a fund towards a regatta, which will take place on the 15th of August next. The matches will be for scullers, pair and four- oars, and one for eight oars ( if competitors can be found).

ASTON CROSS GROUNDS, BIRMINGHAM.— The handicap of 440 yards ( or twice round the grounds) came off here on Monday and Tuesday last. The weather, fortunately, was all that could be wished. On Monday there was a very large assemblage, and a pretty good sprinkling on Tuesday ( taking into consideration Goleshill pony races on Monday, and Owen's Stanley mile gal- loping match on Tuesday), and we are happy to have to record that the arrangements made by the proprietor, Mr Clulee, gave great satisfaction. The first prize was £ 7, second £ 2, and 5s each to every man winning a heat and not getting a prize. The following were the lots:— At four o'clock, Lot 1: Leuch 10 yards start, Akers 20, and Sheard 36. Betting, 2 to 1 on Lench, who won by two yards. Lot 2 : Dearden 16 yards start, W. Hill 20, aud Ktiowlss 30. This was a well- contested heat, Hill taking up the running and continuing the lead for one lap and a half round, when Dearden passed him and ran in a winner by four yards. Lot 3 : J. Fisher 16 yards start, and Browning 30. Browning led away at a rattling pace for one lap and a half round ; the speed being too fast for him to hold out, Fisher went ahead aud won by six yards. Oil Tuesday the final heat was run off between Lench, at 10 yards, Dearden 16, and Fisher 16 yards start. There was a good deal of money laid out at evens, afterwards at 5 to 4 on Lench ; also the same odds that Dearden beat Fisher. The men got to scratch, but Lench having started before the pistol was fired, the referee ordered him back five yards ( according to articles). On the signal being given the meu got off well, and a sharp contest took place, Fisher going away at a rattling pace, and continuing the same for one lap and a half, when Lench took the lead, Dearden closely following, with Fisher a few paces behind. Lench, how- ever, kept the lead, and ran in a winner by two yards of Dear- den and five of Fisher. Time, lmin 2secs.

The referee ordered the men to be at scratch in fifteen minutes, at which time they again made their appearance ( the bettiug all through at evens) at scratch, and in a few seconds again got a good level start; a close neck and neck race ensued up to the Four Score, when Reece put on the steam, and gradually crept away from Biggs, running in a winner by two yards.

SATURDAY, JULY 4.— The very unsettled weather which prevailed during to- day prevented many persons from paying a visit to these noted grounds ; and, as evening approached, the atmosphere became still more louring, aud this locality was visited by a heavy storm of thunder, lightning, and rain. This untoward combination of the elements— however unfa- vourably it might operate against some of those who were engaged in the sport— did not prevent about one thousand of its admirers from putting in an appearance, and the events decided embraced both canine and bipedal contests, the latter being a handicap, confined to novices, which was productive of some excellent sport. The first rice of the day was a canine one, between HANDICAP FOOT RACE.— This handicap, of 440 yards, was confined to novices who had never previously won more than £ 10 in a match; the first prize was £ 7, second £ 2, third £ 1. For this event no less than 50 aspirants to pedestrian honours en- rolled their names; and there being nothing to pay for acceptance, the starts for thes various heats ( six in number) were numerous. The closeness with which some of these were con- tested exhibited very superior judgment in handicapping— especially when it is borne Sn mind that the competitors were novices; the course was, as usual, exceedingly well kept. Mr Thomas Hayes discharged the duties of referee, and MrG. Piers officiated as starter. The sport, which commenced shortly after four o'clock, came off as follows:— Lot 1: _ J. Thorp of Har- purhey 10 yards start, 1; H, Hilton of LoSk House 20, 2. Tv: sm- others ran ; won by half a yard.— Lot 2 : S. Taylor of Hollin- wood 27,1; J. Dyson of Tdnge- lane 30, 2. Three others also started ; Taylor won by half a yard.— Lot 3: T. Simpson of Har- purhey 25,1; J. Murphy of Newton Heath 48,2. Five others competed, and Simpson won by two yards.— Lot 4: W. Schofield, of Lees Brook 28,1; E. Jervish of Saddleworth 20, 2. Six others ran; won by* aryard.— Lot 5 KC. Partington of Middleton 35, 1; J. Goddard of Failsworth 20, 2T3".' Monday of Stalybridge 28, 3. This was a capital race, and resulted in Partington winning by only six inches. W. Smithies of Newton Heath was disqualified, having entered falsely. Lot 6 : J. Lett of Hulme 30, 1; J. Morris of Pendleton 35, 2. Five others ran, and Lett won by three yards. With this heat the sport concluded shortly before seven o'clock. POSEY AND MARY COPP.— J. Woodcock of Kersley is the owner of Posey, and Mary Copp belongs to J. Taylor of Staly- bridge, and the contest : was for £ 20 a side, distance 200 yards, neither dog to exceed 161b weight. Mr. Thos. Hayes ( the owner of the ground) filled the office of referee, and the betting at starting was 5 to 4 on Mary Copp. The favourite gradually gained upon her opponent, and proved the winner by five yards. MONDAV.— There were upwards of 500 spectators present, this afternoon being fixed for the deciding heat to be run, and the weather was much more favourable than on Saturday. The result was as follows:— Schofield 1, Partington 2, Thorp 3, Simp- son 4, Lett 5, Taylor 6. Betting: 5 to 4 agst Lett,- 6 to 4 agst Simpson, and 2 to 1 agst Thorp, An excellent start was effected, and though alternate changes took place during the race, a sheet would have nearly covered the lot when they had arrived within a dozen paces of the goal. Here Schofield got just in front, and succeeded in winning by three- quarters of a yard, Partington defeating Thorp for second place by half a yard. This brought to a close this interesting handicap, the decisions of the referee and the arrangements throughout having been of the most satisfactory character. TETLOW AND SANDERSON.— Mr Thomas Hayes has received another deposit, making £ 20 each now down, on account of the race of two miles, for £ 25 a side, between J. Tetlow of Holliu- wood and J. Sanderson of Whitworth, near Rochdale. The event is to come off at the Copenhagen Grounds, near Manchester, oa 6 BELL'S LIFE IN LONDON, JULY 12, 1857. .

Lieutenant and a vast number of spectators, comprising a large proportion of the Irish aristocracy.

This was one of the best races . of the day, and the prize, after a gallant contest, was won by the above- named officer, one of the most active in the camp. No less exciting was the HEAVY MARCHING ORDER RACE of one mile, for officers, which was well- contested. Ensign Aytouu, 94th Regt, however, after a h& rd struggle, bore away the palm of victory. The 300YARDS RACE for officers was won by EnsignBrinckman, 94th Regt, who, from the effects of a severe fall, was not suc- cessful in bearing away the belt in the wind- up race for officers.

JOHN SEVILLE of Oldham is astonished that T. Hosspool should charge him with presumption because he wishes to run for the champion's belt at Bellevue, Manchester. Hosspool is surely not so innocently ignorant as to require reminding that the Copenhagen Grounds, London ( which is the place the ar- ticles state the belt shall be contended for), are no longer in existence for racing purposes. The late proprietor, knowing that he was about to leave the premises, stated after the last race that he was willing the belt should be next rim for either in Lancashire or at Sheffield, provided he received a share of the gate money. After the above explanation, and the mouey offered towards expenses, Seville hopes that Hosspool will not quibble further, but at once proceed to business; or Seville will run him for £ 50 a side, either with or without the belt, at the Copenhagen Grounds, near Manchester, and give £ 5 for ex- penses ; to run on the 3lst of August. If articles are sent to Seville, at the Pedestrian Tavern, Oldham, and £ 5 or £ 10 to Mr J. Holden of Manchester, they will be attended to. WILLIAM JACKSON of London informs Robert Kaye of Black- burn that he is surprised at his proposing to give him £ 10 when he ( Kaye) ought to be satisfied that he is not entitled to the money," but, to put an end to all disputes, if Kaye means jumping, Jackson is willing to add £ 25 to the £ 25 down in our hands, and jump Kaye for £ 50 a side, or for the £ 25 down, and jump half way between home and home ; or he will give Kave £ 3 to come to London. If Kaye does not accept this offer, Jackson will jump any man breathing from one standing jump to four, for £ 25 a side, in five or six weeks from the first deposit. An answer through Bell's Life will be attended to. ELIAS GREENWOOD ( the German lad) will run Constable of Willenhall, William Foster of Leeds, or George Greeu of Stock- ton 120 yards ; James Fawcett of Brighouse, or Shaw of Leeds, 160 yards; George Dearden of Birmingham, 100 or 120yards; or will take two yards start in 120 of Henry Stones of Staveley. Any of the matches can be made for £ 25 a side, by sending a de- posit to James Holden, White Lion, Manchester, and articles to Greenwood, at James Lillie's, New Inn, Westley- street, Ancoats, Manchester.

The Lad will be at JVlr Taylor's, Crown and Anchor, North- street, Lisson- grove, to- morrow ( Monday) night, between eight and ten prepared to make either of the above matches. T. CUMMINS of Shepherd's Bush is surprised at W. Newman asking for a half minute start in eight miles, well knowing that is not his distance; but he will run him 10 miles level, or will give him one minute start in 20 miles; or Cummius will run Martin of Maidstone 10 miles and upwards. Either match can be made for from £ 5~ to £ 25 a side, at Mr Foil's, Ale Stores, Rathboue- place, or at Mr Littler's, the Enterprise, Wells- street, Oxford- street. JERRY CAUNT will take four yards in 120 of William Day of Mansfield, for £ 5 a side ; or three yards in 100 of Elijah Blood of Worksop, or five yards start in 200 of Birkinshaw of Derby, or two yards in 120 of Edward Beeson of Rudington, or will run Elliott ( the Chesterfield Spider) 100 yards level, all for the same sum. Cauat can be heard of at Samuel Rawson's, the Anchor Inn, Skegby, near Mansfield, Notts; or an answer through Bell's Life will be speedily attended to. WILLIAM COWCOM the groom, in reply to H. A. Reed's ( of Lo » don) challenge, on June 23d, to run him 150 yards level for £ 25 or £ 50 a side, begs to inform him that he ( Cowcoro) could not get backed to run him unless he received 15 yards start.

Grindrod having been said in our paper of the 28th ult to have accepted Reed's challenge to run 150 yards, for £ 25 or upwards, at the Salford Borough Gardens. Grindrod denies all knowledge of this, so that, no doubt, some one has again imposed upon us. T. DOWN AY of Manchester will run J.

TOM SAYERS, BEN CAUNT, AND TOM PADDOCK.— WO have received the following letter from Ben Caunt, in answer to the remarks in our last:— " MR EDITOR : I have read your article in last week's Bell, but it has not altered my opinion with regard to the course I have chosen to adopt. I am an old champion myself, and was born before the day in which it came to au Editor or any body else's turft to say,' I shall get or give a belt to be fought lor by the best men iu England.' If the best men in England are not much mistaken, by me, at least, they will never suffer mere patronage to reward or disgrace them. I offer to fight Tom Sayers. In the old spirit of British boxing I have put down my money, and if the match continues, every farthing of mine shall be deposited at houses to be named in articles. I have known the day when I could have put down all the money at once. 1 refrained, and gave my neighbours a turn. I could put all the money down now without backers, but I think it a bad principle, and shall never do it. Let Tom Sayers draw up his articles, let him give me alternate deposits, and I will sign them, if they suit me.— Yours. & c, " BENJAMIN CAUNT. " July 8,1857." Sayers has written to us to say he is agreeable to anything, rather than let the match go off. He is out of town, but if Caunt will draw articles and name his houses for deposits, forwarding the articles to Nat Langham's, he will sign them at once. He insists that, more money shall be staked before Oaunt's fight with Langham. With reference to the reply of Sayers to Tom Paddock's challenge, we have received the following letter from Alec Keene :— " Three Tuns, Moor- street, Soho, July 9, 1857. " MR EDITOR : I have very strictly observed the results of Tom Sayers's recent career, and certainly did expect ( taking into con- sideration the many warm interviews between S'ayers and Pad- dock on former occasions), that the first- named gentleman would have been only too glad to accommodate Paddock with a " merry meeting." I cannot understand why Sayers does not accept Paddock's offer, for should Sayers be permitted, there is just a possibility of abortive matches being continually made, forfeits taken, ultimately the prescribed time for legitimate possession of the belt elapse, and then Sayers becomes its lawful possessor. Let it be distinctly understood, sir, that I do not say such will be the case; but matches like Cauut's ( that per- sonage being pre- occupied with Laugham) must necessarily oc- cupy needless time; aud gentlemen connected with the P. R. have lately become so learned that it behoves me) as Paddock's deputy) to regard every move in the camp of the enemy with jealousy. I see no other person really capable to fight Paddock, therefore it will be useless for the opposite party to dissemble ; we must meet, aud I hope Sayers will think with me, that the sooner we conclude terms the more satisfactory to the public, as it is but just that Tom should be accepted after being so long " an expectant." I nearly omitted to mention that Sayers never meets Paddock without distributing a quantity of that chaff for which he is famous. We do not want this— we wish business ; and I conclude by earnestly hoping your kind insertion of this will assist us.— Yours, & c, ALEC KEENE." It will thus be seen that Sayers has his work cut out. YOUNG M'NULTY AND PARKENSON.— These midland dis- trict men met on Monday near the Hay Mill Brook, three miles from Birmingham, to contend at catch weight, for £ 10 a side, but before they could get to work the authorities put in their appearance. A move was made and a spot found near the Old Custard House, at Yardley, when the necessary preliminaries were adjusted, and the men got to work. Ou stripping there was a great disparity in the size and look of the men, M'Nulty quite a youth to Parkeuson. M'Nulty had the be ® of the fight- ing for the first half hoitr, getting first biood and knock down blow, aud the betting, which commenced at evens, turned to 2 to 1 on Parkeuson, who changed his tactics and made sad havoc on his young opponent's ribs, whilst Parkenson's phiz showed that Mac had not been idle; but as the fight proceeded it became evident that M'Nulty got weaker, and after contending for sixty minutes, in which fifty- six rounds were got through, M'Nulty's friends seeing he had no chance, it was said, intimated to Par- kenson's seconds that they gave in. Parkenson, therefore, with- drew from the ring, considering he was the winner. M'Nulty's friends, now say they were reacty to go on with the fight. The referee ( G. Giles), states that Parkenson never appealed to him and that M'Nulty said he would fight on. He declares also that the friends of Parkenson broke in the ring and created disturb- ances, that both men left the ring without any decision being given, and that the men must therefore fight again. MORRIS AND BROOKES.— In this match Dan Dismore and Alec Keene have, through their attorney, served us with notice not to part with their money— and they justify themselves in this course on the ground that the person we sent to Strood to make inquiries as to the fact of a telegraphic message having been sent is unworthy of belief. It will be recollected that we gave them until Wednesday to prove that the person implicated was not Morris's brother; but not only have they not brought forward any evidence, but Morris's brother has never once showed at our office. Of course they express their belief that he did not send the message, but bejond this they can say nothing, as they were not present at Strood. Iu deference to their wishes, and in consideration of the legal notice, we have withheld the stakes from Brookes for the present— and have set afoot au inquiry through private channels, more for the purpose of proving to them that we have no feeling in the matter, beyond our duty, than from any doubt as to the veracity of our employe, who was sent to Strood specially by us last week, and who, even if so inclined, would hardly invent such a specious story as that published in our last, which could at once be contradicted by the telegraph officials. Dan Dismore and Keene both disclaim any dishonourable practice, but, as we said before, no accusation has been brought against them. We expected a reply to the inquiries we- set on foot long before this, but it had not arrived when wo went to press. It was proposed by Brookes on Friday to the backers of Morris, that the brother of the latter should go to Strood and confront the officials, to see whether they could recognise him, and to this proposition Dan Dismore, just before we went to press, consented without hesitation. Wo have therefore made. arrangements to send a gentleman totally unconnected with the P. Il., to Strood, on Tuesday, to meet Morris and Dan Dismore, so that there is every chance of the matter being settled in a satisfactory manner. Of course, if Morris is recognised, the money will at once be handed to Brookes.

Ford, Esq W. Nicholson, Esq H. Perkins, Esq H. W. AndrewsJlsq W. S. Norton, Esq Bennett Nixon Royston Stephenson Hollands Smith Willsher COUNTIES OF KENT AND SUSSEX v ENGLAND. July 6, being the time appointed by the Marylebone Club com. mittee for these two counties to contend against England, the match commenced on that day, and was brought to a conclusion on the following. The company was not very great, owing to the rain, which made its appearance at the time when the ground mostly begins to fill. Last year, it will be recollected, the counties had, in their second innings, to go in for 41, but were doomed to get only 39, and thus lost by 4 runs. The match on this occasion, the result will show, was equally well contested. The ground, owing to the previous rain, was somewhat dead, but the wickets had been well prepared and selected. The betting was 6 to 4 on England, not withstanding that the Counties had two such fine bowlers on their side. It appears to us an oversight leaving out Walls of Sussex, whose bowling alone this year is remarkably good, and if we may judge from the masterly innings he played against Surrey, at Brighton, he is also worth playingforhis batting alone. England won the toss, and sent in Grundy and Cicsar, but the former was not allowed to stop so long as on the previous Monday. Five singles, and Wisden caused a rattle. Czesar made some remark- ably fine hits; one a drive for six from Willsher, also two drives from him for fours, and one from Wisden; with a three and a single; Wisden also gave him notice to quit. The first fell for 11 and the second for 38. Jlr Haygarth was caught by third man off a " jumper" from Lillywhite, who had taken the ball at Willsher's end; his figures were two threes ( a drive from Will- sher and a leg- liit from Wisden), a two, and singles ; three wickets down for 58 runs. Parr attempted to take a liberty with one from Lillywhite— running off— and got bowled ; he made a splendid drive from Wisden for six, also two cuts from each bowler for threes, a leg- hit for two, and two singles, and then had to retire; four wickets for 71 runs. Tinley aud Oaffyn now got together, and caused a considerable deal of bother before they could be got rid of. Willsher again took the bowling at his end, and ere long Wisden again took the ball, which had previously, for eleven overs, been well trundled by Dean. Wisden gave Tinley one that got by, and 23 was announced as his conlribution towards defeating the Counties; his figures were a five ( drive from Wisden), a four ( drive from Lillywhite), four twos, & c. Five wickets down for 106 runs. No one else made a stand with Caffyn, Wisden and Willsher disposing of them for a total of 132. Martingell made a drive from Willsher for four. Caffyn, therefore, brought out his bat with the score of 39 attached to his name, composed of two fours ( cut and a drive frooi Wilisher), five threes ( two at square- leg, two cuts, and a drive), three twos, and singles; his innings was a masterly one ia every sense of the word. The bowling of Wisdeu was first- rate, while Willsher, who was suf- fering from a bad leg, was not so well oa the spot. Throughout the innings Goodhew long- stopped well. Messrs Tredcroft and Norton took long- leg and mid- wicket, and Dean point. Liily- white cover; the latter particularly distinguished himself in his position. Ellis also kept wicket well, and it may be safely stated that an excellent display of cricket was shown on both sides. For the Counties Dean and Adams were the first with the bat, C. D, Marsham and Caflyn, their opponents, with the ball. Dean made a drive from Cafiyn for four, and was caught in the slip. One wicket for 13. John Lillywhite just " snicked," and the ever- ready Lockyer was. of course, " all there," and thus two wickets fell for 16. Wisden hit on, and the third fell for 28. Adams was then bowled, Marsham putting together an excellent 19, by a four ( drive from Caffyn), two threes ( drive and a leg- hit), two twos, & c. This, the fourth, wicket fell for 32 runs. No one could make a stand but Goodhew, who exhi- bited au excellent defence, until Tinley came on with the slows, whose first ball, a full pitch, got him caught; his figures were two fours ( leg hit and a drive), a three ( cut), and singles. Mr Andrews, who, strangely, appeared iast, brought his bat out, without much opportunity of scoring ; and the innings termi- nated at half- past six o'clock for 76 only. 5 to 1 was now laid on England, and the result will show whether or not such odds ought to be laid on cricket. TUESDAY.— 1This morning England was first of all repre- sented at the wickets by Caffyn and Caesar. The latter run out. Mr Haygarth followed and gat bowled. Oaffyn was then caught in the slip. The first and second wickets fell for 18 runs, and the third for 21; the fourth ( G. Parr's) for 25, the fifth ( Grundy's) for 32. This caused the layers of long odds to feel somewhat uneasy, Tinley came, and, like Caffyn, made a good 16, composed of two fours, a three, a two, & c. Caftyn's was a four, a three, three twos, & c. The sixth wicket ( Lockyer's), seventh ( Stevenson's), and eighth ( Mar- sham's) all fell for the same total— 41. The ninth ( Tinley) was got rid of, wnen 45 was announced. The two last ( Jack- son and Martingell) were then together, and had not Mar- tingell been lucky in a decision as to a " run out," the total would have remained the same, but 7 more were scored. The innings terminated at 20 minutes to two o'clock— the innings of an Eleven of England like this lasting only one hour and a half! The bowling of Willsher aud Wisden could not beiooked at. Stephenson was got at poiat the first ball, and Mr Marsham was bowled the second. The Counties had now 109 to get to win; they sent Dean and Adams to the wickets. The third ball of Jack- son's removed Adams's stumps. Goodhew came next, and with Dean ran up the score to 20, when Stephenson, who had been put on at Marsham's end, got one past Dean; he made a drive from Marsham for four. Lillywhite then came, but Stephenson also got rid of him; thus three wickets fell for 28 runs. Wisden was caught hitting round at a leg ball, and four went for 31 runs. Caffyn took a ball thrown xroni long field, and threw out Willsher, which made five for 53. Willsher made two threes and two singles. Eliis and Mr Andrews having been got rid of, Clifford came and made a stand with Goodhew, who had been playing iu a most masterly manner. Several changes in the bowling took place. Tinley, at last, got Clifford with his slows, being caught long- field off; he made a four, a two, and two singles— eight wickets for 77 runs, or 32 to get. Mr. Norton joined Goodhew, when Jackson, at last, dis- posed of the latter by a shooter. His was a splendid innings, made by a drive and leg hit for fours, two cuts for threes, with five twos, and singles, making a total of 40. Messrs Tredcroft and Norton, the two last, played admirably, and called forth repeated applause. Four or five runs more might have been run, but when the long- stop caught Mr. Norton from the fast bowler, 13 were found to be wanting to tie, by which number, therefore, England was declared victorious. Mr. Norton made two threes and three singles, . and Mr Tredcroft five singles. The match terminated shortly after five o'clock. Score: ENGLAND. lst inn 2d inn J.

This match was commenced at Eton July I, and finished on the following day. The Wykeliamites were overmatched by their opponents ; in every department of the game, though Messrs Giffard, Eyre, and Bayly tried hard in the second innings to re- trieve their fortune.

On the 3d and 4th ult the colours of All Muggleton wooed the breeze 011 the beautiful ground of Oakley. During the first of two clays' combat the tricolour was in the ascendant, Mr Peel carrying things with a high hand till the Russell of the Oakley cabinet overthrew- the Peelite dynasty. Mr Cole played with a steadiness most useful to his party, while Mr Beaumont, scorning to let Well( s) alone, enlivened the proceedings by the acrobat feat of lifting him over his own head continuously. But though after this the Muggs disposed of their opponents, in spite of Mr Crimble's decided protest for a small score, there was defeat eventually in store for them, for a hospitable Portal 6 BELL'S LIFE IN LONDON, JULY 12, 1857. repeivpd them, whence men come not out but with much con- sumption of antique vintages, and with a graeful reception which disarms the requisite awmo ty. 1 et cua arm ou „„ H Wilson show mighty play, but their people followed inern not Then fell KrSt rains, but these Muggs were of no porous day, and the rL entered not in to dilute their Burf nd^ or damn their spirits, so they bowled on with an orb of spongy texture which rendered their Smith power ess ^^ tack and their Chanticleer more than usually slow.

Most of our readers are aware that the All England Eleven again play the United, and we have no doubt, should the weather prove as fine as last week, that there will be as many to do honour to Jemmy as there were to assist the Cricketers' Fund. We hope that secretaries and other ma- nagers of clubs are exerting themselves on his behalf now, for when the season is over it will be too late. To those who have not the printed subscription lists, we would strongly urge upon them to obtain the same from Messrs. Lillywhite and Wisden, who wouM be happy to send them anywhere, in order to bring home a good benefit for so renowned, upright, and honest a cricketer. We shall be happy to receive any subscriptions that may be forwarded. A. Patterson, c Clark, b Taylor.. 4 G. Gilbert, not out 14 E. Haden, b Clark 9 H.

MONDAY- TROOPS FOR INDIA.- The Earl of CARDIGAH asked whether it were true that the reinforcements for India were about to be despatched in sailing vessels ?— Lord PANMURB replied that, after mature deliberation, tke Government had come to the determination to employ sailing vessels rather thaa NEGRO EMIGRATION.— Lord CLARENDON, in reply to Lord Brougham, stated that the French Government meant to take all possible securities against abuses in the plan of negro emigration which had been proposed; at the same time he ( Lord Clarendon) agreed with Lord Brougham that any such plan must have a tendency to revive the slave trade. TUESDAY.— Some discussion took place on the Coalwhippers Bill, which was ordered to be referred te a select committee. THURSDAY.- THE SALE OF OBSCENE PUBLICATIONS PREVENTION BILL passed through committee on the motion of Lord CAMPBELL. FRIDAY.— THE JEW BILL.— The second reading of this bill was moved by Lord GRANVILLE.— The Earl of DERBY op- posed the measure, as he believed that if the bill were carried, it would have the effect of destroying the Christian character of the Legislature.— Lord Lyndhurst, the Duke of Somerset, the Duke of Norfolk, Lord Camoys, Lord De Vere, the Bishop of London, Lord Dufferin, and Lord Brougham supported the bill, which was opposed, by Lord Wincheisea, the Archbishop of Canterbury, and Viscount Dungannon. On a division the numbers were— For the second reading, 139 against it, 173; majority against the second reading, 34. HOUSE OF COMMONS. MONDAY- BRIBERY AT ELECTIONS.- Sir G. GREY re- newed, in an amended form, the motion made OH Friday by Lord Palmerston, " That in ail cases when the seat of any mem- ber has been declared void by an election committee on the ground of bribery or treating, no motion for the issuing of a new writ shall be made without two days' previous notice being given in the Votes."— Mr DISRAELI did not object to the reso- lution in this form.— Mr T. DUNCOMBE moved by way of amend- ment, that the term of " seven days," originally proposed, be substituted for " two days."— Upon a division the original reso « lution was carried bv 190 to 138. PROBATES OF WILLS— The house then resolved itself into a committee upon the Probates and Letters of Administration Bill, after a short desultory discussion, chiefly upon the subject of compensation to officers.— On the 2d ( interpretation) clause, in which the " Court of Probate" is first mentioned— Mr COL- LIER proposed the first of a series of amendments, the object of which, he said, was, that as the superior courts of common law were by the bill to be entrusted with nine- tenths of the conten « tious jurisdiction, they should have the ether tenth, and that the non- contentious business should be transacted by a registrar and officers, under the control of the courts of common law. In order to raise the question, he moved that the word " office" be substituted for " court," in relation to com- mon form business.— The ATTORNEY- GENERAL opposed the amendments, observing that the business of a Court of Probate required great experience, great care, and very consi- derable knowledge of the mode of transacting it, and that % transferred to the 15 judges there might be contradictory deci « sions, even if their occupations admitted, which he did not be- lieve, of their undertaking this additional business.— The amend- ments were likewise opposed by other members, and Mr COLLIEB ultimately withdrew them.— On the 40th clause, enacting that probates and administration to have effect iu all parts of Eng- land may be granted in common form by district registrars, when the estate of the deceased is under £ 1,500 personalty— Mr WESTHEAD moved to amend the clause by omitting the limita- tion, aud making the probate cover all personalty, wherever situate.— The ATTORNEY- GENERAL said the greatest possible danger would be incurred, and great alarm would be occasioned to public bodies, if so large an authority were given to district registrars.— The retention of the words containing the limita- tion was negatived by 162 to 131— a majority of 31 against the Government.— The ATTORNEY- GENERAL said this vote would destroy the bill, and he would give the house„ an opportunity of reconsidering its most unfortunate vote.— The committee then divided upon the amendment moved by Mr WESTHEAD, to in- sert the words " and that such probate or letters of administra- tion shall cover all personalty wherever situate;" when the amendment was carried by 141 to 139— a majority of two against the Government.— The Chairman was then ordered to report progress. THE SUEZ SHIP CANAL— In answer to a question from Mr H. Berkeley, Lord PALMERSTON said that the British Go- vernment had sought, by every means in their power, to oppose the scheme of M Lesseps for the construction of a ship canal across the Isthmus of Suez. The project was, in their opinion, a bubble, and the work altogether impracticable at any cost which promised a legitimate return from the undertaking. THE LORD LIEUTENANCY OF IRELAND.— Mr ROE- BUCK moved a resolution, enunciating the opinion that the office of Lord Lieutenant of Ireland ought to be abolished. Adverting to previous motions of a similar character, brought forward by Mr Hume and Lord John Russell many years ago, he contended that the state of Ireland had undergone a total change during the interval that had since elapsed. The functions of an Irish Viceroy had become wholly use- less. With profound tranquillity in Ireland, and the means of rapid communication which were every year rendered more available between the two countries, the maintenance of the last show of separate sovereignty preserved in Dublin Castle had become a costly and ridiculous sham. Following out the consequences of this retention of an obsolete system into the various results of political corruption, official embarrassment, and public extravagance, he exhorted the Legislature to ob- literate a shadow from which all use and substance had long since departed.— Mr M'CULLAGH, who opposed the motion, moved the previous question. He admitted the total inutility of the Irish Viceroyalty, but refused to destroy even that fiction of administration until some substitute was provided.— Mr WHITESIDE could not accept the present proposition in its isolated form, remarking that Parliament had entrusted exten- sive duties to the Irish Viceroy for which no provision was sug- gested. In principle, however, he agreed with the motion, and would support it if incorporated in some comprehensive scheme of administration for the sister kingdom. The hon and learned member proceeded to comment upon the evil consequences which, as he maintained, had resulted from a continued adhe- rence to the system of provincial legislation and jobbing govern- ment in Ireland.— Lord PALMERSTON observed that Mr Roebuck had thrown out an abstract proposition whose practical conse- quences he left to others the task of adjusting and accommodating with the general system of government. This course was, to say the least, inconvenient. The subject was surrounded with difficulties. There were many reasons for condemning the double administration of Irish affairs, but nevertheless the presence of a Viceroy in Dublin was accompanied by many local advantages, which should not be surrendered hastily. It was, he argued, precipitate to condemn an institution of such importance at a period when the legislative session was so far advanced, and there was no possibility of fairly discussing the extensive arrangements which that step would render necessary. Eulogising the talents and patriotism of Lord Carlisle, whose administration had con- duced so largely to the development of Irish prosperity, Lord Palmerston recommended the house to accept the compromise offered by the amendment, and vote for the previous question.— Mr DISRAELI opposed the motion, and, on a division, it was re- jected by 266 to 115. THE STEAM RESERVE.— Sir C. NAPIER, in moving for some returns respecting the reserve steam fleet, contended that in reality no such reserve was in existence, and urged upon the Government the expediency of supplying a deficiency which, he said, was equally deplorable iu the article of ships and of seamen. — The motion was seconded by Mr BENTINCK.— Sir C. WOOD admitted that the home squadron had been unexpectedly sent to China. The force could not be replaced except by asking Parliament for larger grants of men and money, and the Go- vernment did not believe there was any emergency sufficient justify that demand.— Some further remarks were made by Miv Lindsay, Admiral Duncan, General Thompson, and other mem- bers.— The motion was then negatived without a division. WEDNESDAY.— No business of general interest was trans- acted. THURSDAY.- MAYO ELECTION COMMITTEE.- Mr SCHOLEEIELD, chairman of the Mayo Election Committee, brought up a special report, stating that letters addressed to Colonel Higgins had been laid before the committee containing the information that certain persons named therein, in conse- quence of their having given evidence before the committee, had been attacked and one of them seriously injured by a mob.— Mr WALPOLE called attention to this report, and suggested that it was right for the house to consider whether the matter should be left where it was without some inquiry.— Mr J. D. FITZ- GERALD said, in consequence of the production of these letters before the committee, it had been ascertained by a telegraphic communication that an outrage had been committed ; that two persons had been beaten severely, and that nine persons, charged as participators in the outrage, were in custody. He hoped to be in Dublin this day, and anticipated no difficulty in placing these parties on their trial at the approaching assizes. In the meantime any interference on the part of the house might be productive of great inconvenience. FRAUDULENT TRUSTEES— The house went into com- mittee on this bill, and several clauses were modified and agreed to.— Numerous bills were advanced a stage, and the house adjourned. FRIDAY- PROBATES OF WILLS.- After some business of no great public interest, the house went into committee on this bill.— After some discussion, the clauses were agreed to, and the bill passed through committee, The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the house adjourned.
