POLICE INTELLIGENCE. INCEEASE oP SIABBIK. F OtSES.- At Bow- street, on Monday a woman named Hannsh Kuuhtsbridge, living in the purlieus of Seven Dials, was charge with stabbing Ann Wittenbureh this being the third case of stab, with the knife in as many days before the same magistrate, from the evidence of the bystanders it appeared that the two women had been drinking together at a public- house in Kiag- street, Drury- lane, from twelve o'clock till five ia ths afternoon of the 24th ult A quarrel arose between them about the payment of their score and the prisoner was heard to say, " If you don't give the halfpenny I'll stick a knife into you." This threat was fol- lowed almost immediately by its execution, for the prisoner raised her arm, and with great force thrust a penknife into the head of the prosecutrix, who fell to the ground exhausted. A female named Barker seized the prisoner's arm, upon which an attempt was made to stab her also, and it was not without some difficulty that the weapon was got from her hand. The prosecutrix was taken to King's College Hospital, where she was confined some days. She was now out of all danger. Both the prosecutrix and the prisoner were evidently drunk.— Mr Henry committed the prisoner to two months' hard labour. CHAKGE OF STEALING A HORSE AND BBOTJGHAM.— On Tuesday, at Westminster police court, two men, of the names of Jacobs and Ashby, were brought up for final examination and placed at the bar before Mr Arnold, the first au ostler, charged with stealing a horse and brougham, the property of Mr Stevens,> livery stable- keeper, Belgrave Mews East, Pimlico, and the latter a beer- shop- keeper, in business in the London- road, was charged with receiving the same.— It appeared from the evi- dence that the prisoner Jacobs had been in the service of Mr Stevens, and that, a few weeks ago, about ssven o'clock inthe morning, he took a horse from the stables which was at livery, and attached it to a brougham, both of which he took away. Through the active exertions of the police they, with the pri- soner, were traced to have gone to the Obelisk Livery- stables, near St George's- road, and they found that the property, which was valued at £ 120 by the prosecutor's son, had been sold by Jacobs to Ashby for £ 20, the horse being described by him ( Jacobs) as a roarer, but which was stated by the owner of it to be perfectly sound. Huddy, an experienced officer of the B division, 199, discovered that the harness was left at a beer- shop in the occupation of a person of the name of Trobens, near Si George's- road, jointly by Ashby and Jacobs, to whom it was to be delivered when they both called for it. Mr Inspector Cum* mings, police constable 212 M, and 206 B, were also actively en- gaged iu bringing the evidence forward.— The prisoners were committed for trial. CAUTION TO OMNIBUS SERVANTS.— On Tuesday, at South- wark police court, an omnibus time- keeper, in the. employment of Kite and Bastable's Omnibus Association, was charged with, using abusive language towards Mr Joseph Hudson, one of the managers of the London General Omnibus Company. Mr Beard, from the office of Mr Buchanan, appeared for the prosecution* The learned gentleman said that the defendant was employed by the opposition omnibus company, and was frequently annoy ® ing, by every possible means, the servants and officers of the General Omnibus Conveyance Company, and making use of bad language, which was calculated to lead to a breach of the peace. It was only a short time since that he ( Mr Beard) had to appear against another servant of the same company, for similar lan- guage as he had now to complain of, but then he did not press for any severe punishment more than that the defendant should be bound over to keep the peace. He had found, however, that such a lenient course did no good, and he must on the present occasion press for the defendant to be punished.— The case having been fully substantiated by Mr Home, the manager of tolls at the New North- road, and also by Police- constable No. 64 of the M division, the magistrate said the defendant's conduct was calculated to lead to a breach of the peace, and he fined him I the highest penalty, viz, 40s, or twenty- one days' imprisonment. ASSAUIT ON A WISE.— At the same court, Martin Began, 1 determined- looking fellow, was charged with assaulting and nearly murdering his wife. The poor woman exhibited a i wretched appearance. Her eyes were blackened and bloodshot, feer head and face were covered with contusions, her arms were blackened, independent of which she suffered acutely frosi various injuries on the lower part of the person. The wife, as well as she could articulate, said that the previous morning, in consequence of her saying something to the prisoner about his going to work, he struck her violently with his clenched fists several times, and inflicted the injuries that were visible upon her head and face. After that lie got a broomstick and beat her in a dreadful manner.— The prisosier said that his wife showed fair fight, and chased him with a knife.— The magistrate said that the prisoner had been guilty of cruelty of the worst kind, and in order to stop for a time such conduct, he should sentence him to six months' imprisonment, with hard labour. REVOLTING CRUELTY,— ON Wednesday, at the Worship, street police court, two young men, named William Cushway and John Deme, journeymen cabinet- makers, were charged be- fore Mr D'Eyncourt with having wantonly and cruelly tortured a cat to death.— It appeared from the statement of Mr Wemyss, the superintendent of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, which was fully confirmed in evidence, that on the afternoon of Thursday, the 20th ult, the attention of one of the witnesses, named Elizabeth Dunn, was attracted by the violent barking of dogs aud shouting to the opposite house, and on looking down from her window, she observed the prisoners engaged in hounding on two large terriers to worry a cat in their workshop. The poor animal escaped twice from the windows but was followed up aud taken back by the prisoners, who again urged the dogs to attack it, and she felt so sickened at the disgusting spectacle, that she hastened down stairs aud gave information to the police. The defendants kept up their brutal sport for at least two hours before they succeeded ia killing the cat, which she had since seen dead, and frightfully mangled, in a stable- yard adjoining the premises.— Mr Heritage, who ap « peared on behalf of the defendants, said that, according to his instructions, one of his clients had been severely bitten by the cat, and that he considered himself justified in immediately de- stroying it for his own safety, iu pursuance of the popular pre- judice which existed in such cases,— Mr D'Eyncourt said that as it was undoubtedly a gross act of cruelty, without allowing the prisoners the alternative of a pecuniary penalty, he should sentence them to a month's imprisonment, with hard labour, in the House of Correction. A CABAVAN LOST IN THB DESERT.— A telegraphic despatch from Trieste, of the 27th ult., received at Vienna, announces the arrival of the Neptune steamer, with accounts from Constanti- nople to the 22d ult. A caravan composed of 500 persons and 1,300 horses, which left Damascus for Bagdad on the 29th of June, had all perished in the desert with the exception of 20 persons. The persons composing the caravan had lost their way, and died for want of water. The Bedouins pillaged the baggage. HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT and PILLS are unequalled in their effects in all serious cases of ulceration, being as penetrating as powerful, exer- cising a wonderful influence over the diseased system.

F, Muutz was proved last week'; the personalty is sworn under £ 600,000. To his widow he leaves £ 1,600 as a legacy, and directs that out © f the proceeds of the French Walls Works £ 1,000 shall be paid her annually so long as she remains his widow. Mrs Muntz is also permitted to use such of the furniture, plate, & c, as she may choose, but an in- ventory of the property so used is to be takes, and at her death the whole is to be considered as part of the residuary estate. To his sons, William Henry, John Devereux, Eugene, Gustavus. and Philip Albert, he leaves £ 25,000 each; to his daughter, Mrs Sheppard, of Walthamstow, £ 20,600 in trust for herself, her children, and her grandchildren ; to his son Charles Adolphus, £ 2,000, one half to be invested in purchasing land in New Zea- land, and the other half in purchasing cattle and other farming stock, the property so purchased to be held in trust for the benefit © f the legatee. The executors are Mr Philip Henry Muutz ( who receives a legacy of £ 1,006) and Mr George Fre- derick Muntz, the former the brother and the latter the eldest son of the testator. The whole of the real and personal estate, with the exception of the legacies above- mentioned, is left to Mr George Frederick Muutz, as residuary legatee. We may add that the will contains a singular provision, enabling the executors ' to deduct from and out of the legacies given to or in trust for my said sons, and my said daughter, all sums which stand to their respective debit at the time of my decease, either in ink or pencil, in my private ledger or waste- book, or either of them, and such deductions, if aay, shall form part of my resi- duary personal estate.'" THE RAILWAY COLLISION AT WATCHET.— The inquest re- specting John James, Henry Giles, and George Williams, who lost their lives by a collision on the West Somerset railway on Saturday week, was concluded on Thursday evening. The jury, after deliberating about an hour, returned a verdict of " Man- slaughter against John James" iu the cases of George " Williams and Henry Giles, and that " the death of the said John James was caused by his own culpable carelessness, iu persisting that the Road water engine should proceed when the other engine to his knowledge was expected up from Watchet," The jury ap- pended to the verdict the following :—" The jury cannot sepa- rate without expressing their earnest desire that in future more care may be exercised on the part of the engine drivers ; that so many persons should not be permitted to ride on the engines - and that greater caution should be used; by the authorities in reference to the safety of the public at crossings and othe- i places on the line." NARROW ESCAPE FROM DROWNING.— On Monday last Mr J. Parkinson, of the Accountant- General's Office, Somerset House, whilst bathing with some friends in the river Mole, at Brock- ham, iu Surrey, had a narrow escape of being drowned. The river being very deep at that part, and he not being able to swim, went in with a rope round his chest. This rope by some mishap gave way, and he immediately sank. When at the last gasp Mr Charles Rowarth, of the Royal Bucks Militia ( Kisig's Own), who was one of the party, with great gallantry plunged in and rescued him with some difficulty, for in Mr Parkinson's exhausted state there was great danger of their both falling victims to the death grasp of the drowning man. Mr Rowarth behaved with great coolness and judgment throughout, and it is entirely through his heroism that Mr Parkinson's life was saved, THUNDEESTOBM. IN IRELAND.— SEVERAL PERSONS KILLED — The thunderstorm which visited the north last week was severely felt at Derry, where several persons were killed. The following details are from the Derry Standard .— On the night of Sunday— or rather on tlie morning of Monday last— a thunder- storm took place in this neighbourhood, accompanied with ex- ceedingly vivid lightning, and with torrents of rain, the weather having previously been hot aud suffocating. On Monday night between nine and ten o'clock, the lightning and thunder again commenced, and continued between two and three hours, with very little intermission. la this climate we have seldom wit- nessed anything equal to these electric phenomena in poiat of grandeur, the whole sky having been at times continuously lighted up into one magnificent ocean of flame, rivalling ! H brightness the richest sunlight, while spouts of fire, resembling rockets, shot up towards tha zenith in forms of beauty and ter- ror, to which no description can do justice. The rain, during the greater part of this elemental war, fell in volumes. We regret to record the following melancholy cases of loss of lifefrom this awfully destructive storm, viz:— Mr John Young, of Edena- fogarry, near Finton, a highly respectable farmer, when passing through his own hall on Monday evening, on his way to the tea- table, was struck bythe electric fluid, aad fell lifeless to theground • his daughter, who was a little in advance of him, observed the flash, but escaped uninjured. Two young men, named James Graham and Andrew Irvine, on their return from the fair of Milford the same evening to their residence, near Kilmacrenan were instantaneeusly killed. Three other persons who accom- panied them were prostrated by the shock, but received compa- ratively little injury. A boy of about ten years of age, youngest son of Mr John Russell, of tha Milltown, Ardstrawbridge, wht iu the act of driving home some cows, was struck by a flash lightuing and killed on the spot. An elder brother, who was a short distance from him, on seeing him fall, ran up to him, tell- him not to be frightened, aa the danger was now past; but found on examination that the lad was quite dead. The wife of a farmer, near RameltoB, had accompanied the servant maid to the byre for the purpose of milking the cows, but became so te » rifled that she returned to the dwelling- house, the girl ridiculing her timidity ; the servant, however, within a few minutes after when coming out of the byre, was struck down, and has re- mained ever since in a state of insensibility. She is at present in the Ramelton Hospital, and Ixer recovery is considered doubtful. In the vicinity of Bucrana a horse, the property of Mr Daniel Martin; was killed in the stable, being struck by the lightning" which penetrated through the roof. The passengers in a fisst' class carriage on the Coleraine Railway had a miraculous escape a flash of lightning having scattered the windows. A man named Baldrick, in the neighbourhood of Newtown Cunsiingham, had two pigs killed by the destructive fluid. FIRES IN THE METROPOLIS.— A lire, attended with consi- derable destruction of property, happened on Saturday week, about twelve o'clock, in the extensive range of premises belong- ing to Messrs B. Smith and Sons, corn chandlers and seed merchants, at No. 17, Philip- lane, London- wall, City, The damage done is thus officially reported by Mr Fogo, the chief officer of the A section of the London Fire Engine Establish- ment:—" No. 17, Philip- lane. London- wall, City— Messrs B. Smith and Sons, corn'chaiidlars— back warehouses burnt out the contents consumed, the roof burnt off the entrance to ditto, and back front of the dwelling- house severely damaged by fire, and furniture by fire, water, aud removal." The cause of the fire is unknown. The City police rendered essential aid to the firemen by keeping an immense concourse of spectators out of danger. The buildings were mostly insured. On the same afternoon a fire, which caused considerable alarm and great inconvenience in a crowded neighbourhood, happened in the chambers belong- ing to Mr May, a solicitor, 63, Gracechurch- street, City. The origin of this fire, like the preceding one, is unknown, but when it was first discovered it was raging in the first floor. The engines werepremptly in attendance, and owing to the exertions of the firemen, the flames were confined to that part of the premises. The contents were not insured, but the building was in the Union Office. On Sunday last, a fire, which was nearly attended with the loss of several lives, happened at half- past two in the morning, on the premises of Mr Strange, 34. Nelson- square, Blackfriars- road. The Royal Society's escapes and engines attended, the inmates escaped, and the lire was subdued, but not before a deal of daaiase was done to the building and its contents.

Death should be the punishment of the wretch, of oourse, but the mode of in- flicting it should be that which, while it made the monster i himself feel hopelessly degraded, should bring no imputation of ferocity on those who inflicted it. He should be simply hanged, for hanging is to a man ia his position the most disgraceful death he could suffer. Disgrace and degradation in every way are what he should be made to feel, not bodily torture. He should be told— all India should be told, that— not his rebellion, but his brutal ferocity to women and children, and helpless cap- tiv « B, required the severest punishment that could be inflicted, aud every circumstance that we shun as most degrading should be applied to him, and if there was any mode of burial or dis- posal of his body which he deemed more infamous than another he should be informed that that mode would be adopted. And he and all his confederates should be duly and solemnly warned that this was done, not as a political punishment, tut because of his treachery to captives, and brutality to women and chil- dren. Any other course of treatment would not have the effect of checking that ferocity which has made the Indians in this revolt the objects of the scorn aud hatred of the world. Had these Mohammedans and Hindoos united to throw off a Euro- pean voke, and to give themselves a national existence, whatever might have been thought of the folly of the people who thus wil- fully overturned a regular Government which did afford tberu security of person and property, in order to put themselves anew under a form of government which had never secured them either of these things, there are many millions in the world who would have sympathised with them. Now they navy no such sympathy. They are, perhaps, too ignorant and be- sotted to care for this want of it. They must, therefore, be acted on by those bigotries which alone have effect upon them, and, since their cruelties cau be checked in no other way, they must be punished by those things which, in their eyes, most irretrievably wound their pride, their feelings, and their hopes. THE GOVERNOR- GENERAL OF INDIA AND THE NEPAULESE. There has been some dispute about the alleged fact of the Governor- General of India having asked the assistance of the Nepaulese, and about the terms on which it was said that that assistance was asked and promised. The Globe of Monday gives, by way of explanation, the following paragraph, the first portion of which ( it does net deserve the name of a sentence) is a curious specimen of rigmarole :—" It is true that at a very early stage of the disturbances an officer of subordinate rank took upon himself to ask the assistance of Jung Bahadoor, and to invite the assistance of that eminent personage in a manner and in a direc- tion peculiarly objectionable— soobjectionablethat Lord Canning would have laid himself open to deserved censure if he had sanc- tioned the course on its merits, irrespectively of the excess of duty on the part of a gentleman who had not the slightest war- rant for acting on his own authority. It is true that that officer distinctly learned the opinion which Lord Canning entertained of his indiscretion. But it is also true that at a more advanced stage, an officer in a post of much higher authority did, with the full approval of Lord Canning, accept the assistance of Jung Bahadoor, which will no doubt be rendered available in a man- ner the most useful." This paragraph somewhat reminds us of that chapter, in one of our old novelists, headed " Chapter of explanations, in which nothing is explained." Is it meant that the application for as- sistance deserved censure ? if so, what does the acceptance of the promise of assistance deserve ? Is it meant that it was a fault in a subordinate officer to propose without authority, what a superior officer is afterwards authorised to agree to ? It' so, what sheer red tapeism is this. If the terms first proposed were bad, it was easy to say so, without having recourse to the round- about phraseology, and the bad English of the " Circumlocution Office." What does the Globe mean, or has it any meaning to convey. • THE INDIAN SUBSCRIPTION. Public misfortune and private misery generally accompany each other, but in this case of India the proportions ordinarily observable between them have been reversed. The authority of England has been disputed, and even defied, but the means of existence of scores of Englishmen has been actually destroyed. The first will be re- established more firmly than before, and with it we may hope that the goods of fortune will be restored to those who have now barely escaped with life from the rebel- lion, but, in the meantime, they are destitute. England is not a country where appeals to benevolence have been unheeded. It will not begin that discreditable practice now. Every oue, however small his means, ought to contribute something to assuage the pecuniary part of that misery whicb, alas! is, in so many other respects, beyond the chance or even the hope of aid by any mere mortal efforts. A generous supply of money from the kindiy people © f England will soothe the feelings while it ' contributes to the comfort of those sufferers who have been so severely stricken with misfortune. Every one should be up and active in this good cause. Those to whom labour is not neces- sary as a means of living should give a little of their wealth aud much of their time to this object, and every one else should con- tribute the " mite" which, given with goodwill, and given universally, would rescue from dependence, and, perhaps, want, many who, but a little while since, were living in comfort aud enjoyment, and have now been stripped of all they possess, and suffer most keenly, though for no fault of their own. OUR DEFENCES. India wants soldiers and ships. The former are being de- spatched, though not in the quickest manner of travelling, but the latter are not to go in any number beyond the usual amount. At all events our great ships are to be kept back. The reason given for this, in the speech of Lord Palmerston, appeared strange when it was uttered; it appears even still more strange when the Queen's speech is contrasted with it. The former speaks very uncomfortably of our foreign relations— the latter says they are excellent— which is true ? Lord Palmerston, on being pressed to send out all the soldiers that could be spared, in the large screw line- of- battle ships, which would take them in greater numbers and with greater speed than other vessels, said that the Government would have fallen into an error if it had adopted that course, for " circumstances occurring in Europe might, at a short notice, render the ships necessary for our defence at home." With a treacherous Bourbon, of either branch, on the throne of France, this might have been looked upon as an intimation of possible hostilities with that country. The " short notice" wouldhave been peculiarly applicable there. But it can bear no such interpretation now. The two nations are in alliance, and on every account it must be the wish of the Emperor to confirm, not to break that alliance. Interest and honour equally recommend to him that course. Whence, there- fore, comes this danger, which, " at a short notice," might render our great screw line- of- battle ships necessary for our defence? No one can comprehend the suggestion; Spain, Portugal, Italy, Prussia, and Austria, could not " at a short notice" combine ships sufficient to form a fleet that would create any alarm in England. They could not do this even if they were all cordially united foracommon object. But they are not so united. There is no such union between Spain and Portugal; indeed in case of such a proposal as that of an attack on England being made by Spain to Portugal, we may safely reckou ou its refusal. The two Governments are antagonistic to each other. Italy has no ships sufficiently great and numerous to threaten us with, and Piedmont would not join with Naples, or with Naples and Austria, against England, but rather with England against Naples and Austria; so that there only remain Austria and Prussia that might give us cause of uneasiness. It is not too much to say that under no circumstances could either or both make Eogland uneasy at " a short notice." Whence, then, this mysterious suggestion of danger, that is t ® keep India deprived of that kind of assistance which circumstances have rendered so necessary ? The noble lord's answer looks very much like a repetition of that other unsatisfactory answer of his about sending troops through Egypt: it leads to the belief that the old official bugbear of " in- convenience" has been conjured up to frighten Ministers from their duty, and to refuse to the country all the advantages which its great naval means ought to afford it. If this is so it is most regrettable. We use the mildest word, because, while there is a possible doubt about the matter, we do not wish to express the censure which the country would pronounce on any proved de- fault of duty occasioned by official listlessness. The Ministers must, however, remember that there must be no repetition of Crimean misperformances. The country is ready to do all that may be necessary to re- establish its dominion and to avenge its murdered children. The Minister can have no excuse for show- ing the least remissness in the performance of what the country requires, FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. SPAIN.

There are no circumstances of atrocity which the sad annals cf the world present, that have ue « had their parallel in India. This atrocity has been wholly un. provoked. In other cases it has often borne the character of retaliation— here not the slightest pretence exists for giving it that name. The wretches that have murdered, with every ac. eomp& niment of brutality, innocent and helpless women and children, have been treated with kindness and deference, and have even received honours at the hands of the English. The monster now so painfully known to Englishmen as Nena Sahib has actually been allowed to indulge in the insolent gratification of maintaining a kind of princely guard. No other Government but that of Englishmen would have tolerated such an absurdity, now. alas ! converted into such a source of mischief. He has re- paid" all English kindness and indulgence by the most savage cruelty. He first of all murdered many unarmed persons, after pledging his word that they should depart in safety ; he has since granted a capitulation to men who trusted him, and has then murdered the men, and brutally abused the women, for whose sakes alone the men had consented to capitulate, and finally after thus brutally abusing them, he has on the first ap- proach of an attacking force, brought them out in front of his camp, and there struck off their heads. Of the fate of the cap- tured children we have no account, but it may be guessed from that which has awaited their unhappy parents. The time for vengeance will arrive* Let us say at once what that vengeance ought to be, and we do so the more readily be- cause rumours have actually been spread of the capture of this miscreant, and of his death by a horrible and a disgraceful pro- cess of bodily torture. Let us hope that this is not true. Even PORTUGAL. It is said on very good authority, that Sir S. M. Peto has agreed wish the Portuguese Government upon the leading fea tures of the contract for the construction of the Oporto Rail- way. The slight alterations which are contemplated have only reference to details, and the principal points iu the text of the provisional contract will stand, The siguatures are expected to be affixed to the documents in a few days. Sir S. M. Peto will return to England by the next picket, and will at once com- mence to make preparations for sending out men and materials to begin the works. NAPLES. We read in the Piedmont em Gazette oi Aug 26:—" Letters from Naples say that the Grand Court of Saierno, which was specially commissioned for the trial of the persons made pri- soners on board the Cagliari, decided ou the 18th inst, that no grounds exist for proceeding against Fraisfiois Maschero, a Spa- niard, physician to the Bey of Tunis; Rosa Maschero, wife of the above; Jules Schneider, a Prussian; Eligio Mo, of Turin ; Vincent Donadei, of Turin; Jean Dominique Da ran do, of Vice, a province of Turin; Ferdinand Bormiole, of Altare, a province of Savoua, these four last being subjects of the King of Sardinia." ROME. The Daily News correspondent says the Pope at the present moment is not without some tribulation of Ms own. The ad- dresses from liemagna weigh much upon Ms mind, as is proved by the pertinacity with which the clerical journals deny their existence, and avail themselves cf a cavil which s worthy of the casuists, an& would do credit to Father Sanchez or Father Esco- bar. In the States of the Church it is prohibited even to ad- dress collective petitions to the Sovereign, The Bolognese and the Romagnese, however, willing to keep to legality even to the extent of a scrupulous observance, had recourse, when Cardinal Autonelli prevented the convocation of the Communal Councils, to the expedient of addressing their petitions to the gonfalonier e, or mayors, of their respective towns, giving them au express commission to communicate these addresses and comment upon them to his Holiness. Now, the clerical journals, including the Univers, with aa impudent equivocation, do not hesitate to affirm that no petition of any sort has been addressed to the Holy Father. Here is a sad example of " mental reservation" to be added to those which are recorded in the " Provincial Letters." But the Pope himself is but too cognisant of these petitions, and he knows, moreover, that Napoleon 111. has it in his head to execute his design of promoting many and exten- sive reforms in the Roman State, and in which desire the Em- peror perfectly agrees with the English Government. The recall of Rayneval aud sending Gramusont in his place have no other object in view. Antouelli is therefore using his utmost efforts to secure the reception of the Pope in Rome with extraordinary demonstrations of joy, in order to let Europe see that the Ponti- fical subjects are well satisfied. But his manoeuvres are attended with little success, and Ms star appears about to decline. After all this expense, it is not unnatural for the Papal Go- vernment to contract a fresh loan. It appears that this mea- HEE MAJESTY IN SCOTLAND.— Her Majesty's first day's journey was completed within ten or twelve minutes of the ex- pected time, the whole journey of 399 miles, from Kiiig's- cross to St Margaret's station, having been accomplished within ten hours and a half. The way from St Margaret's station to Holy- rood was lined by the 5th Dragoon Guards, the Royal Artillery, and Rifle Brigade, the Artillery exhibiting in the park a battery of six guns, with full equipment of horses and carriages. An immense throng lined all the way to Holyrood, The Palace of Holyrood was reached in about ten minutes. Outside, the splendid band of the Rifles played the Anthem, and a guard of honour presented arms. The high constables were ranged on bath sides of the portico, and within it her Majesty was received by the Duke of Buccleuch, Sir Benjamin Ball, the Lord Pro- vost, & e. The Right Hon Thomas Babington Macau! ay is to be one of the new peers, by the title of Baron Macaulay. Lord Robert Gros- venor will take the title of Baron Ebury, which is the name of one of the oldest manors in his family. Mr Archibald John Stephens is appointed Recorder of Winchester in the room of Mr G. A. Arney. Mr Henry George Allen is appointed Recorder of Andover in the room of Mr Stephens. DEATH OF VISCOUNT HINTON.— We have to record the death of Viscount Hinton, second and eldest surviving son of the Earl and Countess Poulett, which occurred on Saturday week at Hin- ton St George, Somerset. His lordship was born August 20, 1822, and became viscount on the death of his elder brother, in August, 1848. The deceased, who was a Harrovian, entered the army as Ensign in the 68th Foot, in 1842, from which, after a few years' service, he retired. In October, 1852, he was ap- pointed Colonel of the 1st Somerset Militia. DEATH OS VISCOUNT BALGONIE.— We regret to learn that Viscount Balgouie, eldest son of the Earl and Countess of Leven and Melville, died on Saturday week, after a protracted illness, incurred while doing service with his regiment in the Crimea. The gallant viscount was compelled to return to his native country invalided, and his health shattered. He went last autumn to Egypt, and passed there the winter and spring, but that genial climate had no beneficial effect on his weakened con- stitution. The gallant young nobleman, who was born Novem- ber 19,1831, entered the army in December, 1850, as Ensign and Lieutenant in the 1st ( or Grenadier) Foot Guards, and at the outbreak of the late war accompanied his regiment to the East. He served during the Eastern campaign of 1854 as aide de- eamp to General Sir Henry Bentinck, and took part in the battle of Inkermann, where he had a horse shot under Mm, and during the siege of Sebastopol, for which he received a medal and clasps. DEATH OP LIEUTENANT- GENERAL THOMAS HUTCHESSON.—• We have to record the demise of this gallant officer of the Royal Artillery, who died on Friday week at Dover, in the 77th year of his age. The gallant officer, soon after he entered the army in 1797, served in the campaign in Holland in 1799 and subsequently saw considerable active service. He proceeded to the Peninsula in 1813, and served in the following year in Prance. Prom May, 1815, lie served in Belgium, being present at the battle of Waterloo, and was with the army of occupation in Prance until Nov, 1818. His commission bore date as follows:— Second lieu- tenant 1st Dec, 1797; first lieutenant 2d Oct, 1799; captain, 10th April, 1805; brevet major, 12th August, 1819; regimental lieu- tenant- colonel, 22d July, 1830; regimental- colonel, 23d Nov, 1841; colonel commaudant, 30th August, 1854 ; major- general 20th June, 1854; and lieutenant- general, 1856. DEATH OP THE PEESIDENT OF QUEEN'S COLLEGE, CAM- BEID& E.— This lamented event, long expected, took place ou Wednesday last, at the President's Lodge. The deceased ( Joshua King, Esq, LL. D.) graduated in 1819, as senior wrangler, Mr Cooper, afterwards Prebendary of Chichester, being second in the honour list, which comprised many distinguished names. DR King was soon after elected a Fellow of the Society, and suc- ceeded to the Headship in 1831, on the decease of Dr Henry Godfrey. Between 1839 and 1849, Dr King held the office of Lucasian Professor of Mathematics in the University, and since his resignation has been afflicted with uninterrupted ill- health. He was in his 60th year. The election of his successor is vested in the Fellows of the Society, and, by the statutes, must take place on the eighth day after the declaration of the vacancy. THE CHAPLAINCY OP THE HOUSE OP COMMONS— The Rev Henry Drury, M. A., Prebendary of Salisbury, and vicar cf Bremhill, near Chippenham, will be the new chaplain to the House of Commons, in the room of the Rev Thomas Gamier, B. C. L., rector of Trinity Church, Marylebone, who has held the appointment nine years. An announcement which has appeared in some of the papers that Mr Gamier had resigned is not strictly correct, the fact betog that the Speaker intends exercising the privilege which has been enjoyed by his predecessors ou their elevation to the chair— that of personally appointing the chap- lain to the house prior to the commencement of the next session of Parliament. Mr Drury was appointed to his prebendal stall and to the vicarage of Bremhill by the late Bishop of Salisbury, the Speaker's brother. . to the great allies of the Holy See, Messrs de Rothschild. The moment chosen is favourable, as far as the comparatively high price of stock goes. PERSIA. The Austrian Gazette learns from its correspondent at Berlin, who had the news from Constantinople, that in Persia the Indian mutinies are regarded as a result of English oppression, and contempt for every non- Christian faith. At Teheran, it is related, the public excitement is so great that " the members of the British Legation, if they ventured to appear in public, would in all probability be assassinated, as the members of the Russian Legation were twenty years ago, at a time when the populace were in a state of great irritation, because a peace had been con- cluded on disadvantageous terms." There are rumours of a quarrel at Teheran between the English and the Russian Ministers on the subject of fier& t, and there is reason to fear that the non- surrender of that place, ac- cording to the treaty, has been occasioned by a Russian agent. SAINT DOMINGO. The Espana publishes details of a revolution which has broker, out on several points of the republic of Saint Domingo, The pro- vince of Seybo gave the first signal, and on the 7th of July proclaimed itself independent of the capital. On the next day the province of Santiago followed its example, and on the 10th the town of Puerto Placa joined the movement. The Hspana's letters ascribe this rising to the indignation caused on the dis- covery of a scheme of President Baez to effect a grand and pro- fitable operation in the new tobacco, by means of an illegitimate issue of paper money. The " Republic of Seybo" has proclaimed General Santana its first president. Such is a Spanish account; there is no doubt another side to be heard. NEW ROUTE TO THE CONTINENT.— On Wednesday week a special experimental trip was made from Dover to Dieppe by the royal and imperial mail packet Prince Frederick William, with the view of testing the advantages of the route, and the celerity with which the passage cau be performed by swift steamers from Dover to that vastly improved aud improving French water- ing- place. The day was remarkably fine and the sea smooth ; the steamer got fairly off from the Admiralty Pier at 8.15 a. m., and, without stopping or easing, rau the straight course oi 74 nautical miles, past Boulogne, Rochelle, and Treport, down the beautiful and bold Normandy coast, to the pier head of Dieppe, in four hours and 48 minutes, thus averaging nearly 18 statute miles an hour. She remained in Dieppe harbour until a quarter to four o'clock, started from abreast the ligkthouse at four, and " eased her engines" on nearing the Admiralty Pier, Dover, within five hours from the moment of departure, having made the two passages there and back in nine hours and 48 minutes, at the average rate of 17i statute miles an hour. This experiment has opened out another choice of roads to Paris, and one of the quickest and most agreeable to the summer traveller, who does not care about being double the time he is ordinarily at sea in crossing to other ports. If a passenger had left London at half- past six on Wednesday morning, had gone over to Dieppe by the Prince Frederick William, and had proceeded by the train direct to Paris from Dieppe, he would have arrived at Paris in a shorter space of time than by the regular trains and toat that morniig via Calais, this new route, of course, being traversed under favourable circumstances. The Prince Frederick William was turned out from the Thames Ironworks at Blackwali; she is 325 ton?, 170 feet Song, 20 feet broad, and has oscillating engines of a nominal force ot 120 horso- power, by Ravenhill, Salkeld, and Co, of Glasshouse Fields. She has replaced on the Dover station the lost Violet, and since her arrival at Dover has raacte the pas- sage to Calais in one hour and 21 minutes, and to Oatend under four hours. She is substantially and elegantly fitted, and has all the latest improvements, including Dr Brown's new lights. SUEEET GAEDENS— M JULLIEK'S BENEPIT.— An immense, we may almost say an unprecedented, gathering took place on Monday night, on the occasion of M Jullien's benefit, which was united with a most attractive programme, and, with the excep- tion of the absence of Herr Formes, from illness ( his place being supplied by Merr Pischek), was faithfully carried out. The first part comprised a Mozart selection, consisting of the overture to " Dia Zauberfioie;' " Oh, cara Imagine, Herr Reichardtj " Ve- drai Carino," Madame Boreh& rdt; " The Jupiter Sympnony," " Qui sdegno," Herr Pischek; " Voi che sapete," Madawe Alboni; and Mozart's Concerto in C minor, Miss Arabella God- dard. Of the instrumental pieces we may note the " Zauber- fl& te" overture as closely and well played. The " Jupiter Sym- phony" had too much of wind instruments in the andante can- tabile, whereby all violin effect and finish were lost; the minuetto allegro and the finale were, however, full of spirit. Miss Arabella Goddard did wonders with the Concerto in C. The scherzo, with its delightful motwo, which has been the parent of a score of operatic choruses, was charmingly played. In Part II., after the overture to " Don Juan," Alboni and Formes being underlined for " La ci darem," the great basso was; apologised for by M Jullien, and Alboni, semper parata sang the never- tiring " II segreto per esser felice." The im- mortal trio, " Protegge 11 giusto cillo," by Mesdames Grisi and Berti and M Reichardt. enforced applause and a call. Madame Alboni again raised fervent plaudits by " Batti, batti;" and the second part ended with the finale and chorus to Act 1 of " Don Juan," " Trema, trema, scellerato," by Grisi, Borchardt, Berti, Alboni, Reichardt, Pischek, e tutti. Part III. was introduced by a fantastic drum, trumpet, triangle, and cornet composition, called, for some inexplicable reason, " The Indian Quadrille," which seemed quite to the taste of the devotees of dance music, for they applauded warmly. The lovely aria " Qui la voce," " I Puritani," was most delicately sung by Grisi, who added to it the florid " Vieni in bianca luna," not given in the book. Herr Piscnek sang a bass soag from " Zauberflote," in lieu of Shield's fine old English composition, " The Wolf." The pibce de resistance in this part was the grand duo, " Giorno d'Orrore," from " Semiramide," by Grisi and Alboni, which was as finely and musically declaimed as when— we dare not trust ourselves to say how many years since— these two great cantatrici first electrified the world in Arsace and Semiramide, on the occasion of Alboni's d6but as the youthful Babylonian chief. They sang the first duo, aud for the encore, as the hour was becoming late, they gave the remanet of the scene. Miss Poole was encored in " Wapping Old Stairs," and sang a Scotch bailad. GUN ACCIDENTS PEEYENTED.— The lamentable and fatal ac- cident to Mr T. Piatt, the Liberal member for Oldham, is one of those occurrences with which the shooting season is but too often ushered in. The youthful sportsman, amid his aeal for the destruction of partridges, would do well to remember the sad loss of life which has recently taken place. The constant observance of one or two very simple rules would be sufficient to prevent this class of accidents. The first and most obvious is never to carry the gun with the muzzle pointed, not merely at, but in the di- rection of any human being. The second is, that all parties in the field should walk as much in a line as possible," carrying their guns either on the shoulder or under the arm, not swinging across it, as is too commonly done, thereby bringing the trigger into dangerous proximity with coat or waistcoat buttons. In the next place, the hammer should always be at half- cock, except at the very moment when game is expected to rise. In the act of firing, the young sportsman should always remember that he must never shoot at a bird unless the coast is perfectly clear ; and in loading, that he must avoid hanging over the muzzle of his gun, and never allow his hand or fingers to cover it. Simple and obvious as these precautions appear, it is astonishing what a number of even experienced persons neglect them—- dangling their gun as they walk with their trigger at full cock, and the muzzles covering their dearest friend dead within a dozen paces; leaning over the barrels as they load, and firing recklessly wbu n birds rise, whether any one is in the way or not. It may possibly be of some use at this period of the year to fix our readers' minds u pon the point. On so trite and common- sense a subject nothing very new can be said. To repeat and enforce universally ac- knowledged truths is all we can pretend to. DEATH PEOM VIOLENCE.— An iuquest was held at the Guild- hall, Bath, on Monday afternoon, by A. H. English, Esq, coroner for that city, on the body of a young woman, 20 years of age, named Sarah Ann Morris, whose death was occasioned by the violence of a man named William Bedford, with whom she cohabited. It appeared from the evidence adduced that the parties had been living together in Milk- street for soi » e months past. On Friday night they had been out together, and returned home about twelve o'clock. No one else was in the house; but between twelve and one o'clock a woman named Phillips, living next door, was awoke by very violent screaming. She got up ami heard dreadful screeches again proceeding from the next house, and recognised the voice of the young woman Morris crying, " Oh, Bill, don't." She screeched again, and then a window was thrown up and violently thrown down again ; and Morris continued moaning till daylight. The next morning Phillips saw the man Bedford standing at the door, and asked him what was the matter, and why he had disturbed her rest to which he replied that it was Sally; that she had been drinking liquors and had hysterics, and had nearly beaten herself to pieces. In the course of the day Mr Cox, a surgeon, was called in, and he found the girl in a state of insensibility, apparently from injuries inflicted on the head. The left eye was blackened and there were extensive contusions over the whole of the left side of the head. There was also a contusion on the angle of the jaw on the right side under the ear, and several bruisee on the arms and legs. The girl died the same day, and upon a post mortem examination considerable effusion of blood was found extending over the whole of the sMe of the head, and the temporal muscle was almost in a state of pulp from the blows Death had resulted from concussion of the brain. Bedford* when apprehended, said the woman was drunk, and fell off the chair, but the surgeon was of opinion that the injuries could not have been inflicted by such a fall, nor by a person beating herself in hysterics. The coroner thought there was nothing to reduce the aet of the prisoner, if he caused the woman's death, below wilful murder, but the jury found a verdict of Manslaughter, and a warrant was made out for his commitment. DEOWNED WHILE BATHING— On Monday a fatal accident occurred to a young gentleman, named Veness, son of W. Veness, Esq, of Sfc Mary's- villa, Vauxhall- road. It seems that the young lad was bathing in the Thames, near Battersea, when he was seized with oramp; but bafore assistance could re& ch him he sunk and was drowned. THE MUTINIES IN INDIA. From among the copious information which has been given throughout the week in the shape of letters from India, we are only able to give a few short extracts, showing the state of af- fairs at various points of the mutiny. A letter from Delhi says : 1 The whole native army has gone, or is going. Some fifty regiments have gone already, and all the rest are sure to follow. Here we are still before Delhi, and not likely to get in till rein- forcements arrive from England, for our force is about one- third the enemy's in numbers, aud they outnumber us altogether in guns and ammunition, Delhi being one of the largest arsenals in India. We are therefore quite unable to besiege the place regu- larly, and our nearest batteries are 1,200 yards off. The engi neers urged an assault, and everything was arranged for it, but at the last moment the general hung back, and since then we have lost so many men that I don't think the idea will be ever entertained again. Our own position is impregnable, the left resting on the river, the right well entrenched. The latter the enemy are very jealous of, and are constantly trying to turn. We have had eighteen actions fought there since we came, and some of the regiments have lost a third of their numbers in killed and wounded already." An officer writing from Hyderabad says: " It is supposed we shall have a row to- morrow again, as it is Friday ( the Mus- sulman Sunday), on which day they think it a mark of zeal for their prophet to try and murder us; but, as our sepoys are staunch, they are likely to get more than they bargained for. On Friday last, all the ladies ( our depot exoepted) were put into the arsenal and European hospital. You may imagine the scene; drums besting, bugles and trumpets sounding the alarm, and in all directions carriages rushing off to the above- mentioned places. All the Europeans who lived in the city came rushing into cantonments or took refuge in the residency. We had not a single man on our side touched, though they were being fired at all night. The 12th Lancers were telegraphed for from Poonah, and are likely to be here ia about a fortnight. Their approach is hailed with great glee." From Simla we hear:—" Every day matters grow worse, and the plot thickens by Delhi standing. We act merely on the de- fensive. We have not been able to undertake any offensive ope- rations yet, nor will we, I think, until a strong force has been detached to the river side of the city. At present, if we were to assault on one side they might sally out by the other side unmo- lested. They have 900 Europeans with men and officers, pro- tecting women and children, at Meerut. They are in a fortified position, and it is impossible to imagine why 300 with guns should not hold it and allow the rest to go and co- operate with the force before Delhi. The communication between Delhi and Meerut is now entirely cut off by the destruction of the bridge at Bhagput. You may imagine hew tidings from the scene of action are earnestly prayed for, longed for." A more cheering tone is assumed in a letter from the fortress of Asseghur, dated July 24 :—" Stewart's column marched this morning at two o'clock, en route to Mhaw. Colonel Durand and wife, who have been living with the commandant, accompanied the force. On the 1st or 2d of August the column wiil be at Mhow. Havelock has been thrashing the fellows right well at Cawnpore. Our way to Delhi is looking cheerful. By the middle of September you may expect to hear in England better news than the mails have hitherto taken, as our European forces will then be well advanced to the seat of insurrection. The contin- gent here have been directed to march on the 27tfa en route to Mhow. They will be three days' march in rear of Stewart's column. CENSUS OP DELHI IN 1845 6.— As at the present moment every species of information regarding the imperial city is anxiously sought after, no apology may be necessary for troubling our readers with details of so dry a nature as the following:— On taking the census of 1846, it was ascertained that Delhi contained 25,611 houses, 9,945 shops ( mostly one- storied), 261 mosques, 188 temples, 1 church, 678 wells, and 196 schools. The total popula- tion consisted of 137,977 souls, of whom 69,738 were males, and 68,239 females. Of these, 90 families, or 327 persons, were Chris- tians; 14,768 families, or 66,120 persons, were Mahommedans; and 19,257 families, or 71,530 persons, were Hindoos. In the year 1846, there were born 1,994 males and 1,910 females; the marriages were 953 in number, and 4,850 deaths occurred. Of the last, 1,320 tooisplacebeforetheageof 12 months, 493 between 12 menths aud 2 years, 843 between 2 and 12 years, and 2,194 above that age. The census of the 13 villages forming the suburbs of Delhi comes down to 1847. They then contained 22,302 inhabitants— namely, of Hindoos, 709 cultivators, 14,906 non- cultivators; and of Mahommedans, 495 cultivators and 6,192 non- cultivators. In this return there are two points worthy of notice. The first is, that, notwithstanding the practice of poly- gamy, there'is a very trifling difference between the number of males aud that of females. The only inference to be drawn from this fact is, that a large proportion of the males must be unmar- ried, and that, consequently, dissolute habits are the rule. The other point to be remarked is the equal division of the popula- tion into Hindoos aud Mahommedans. Throughout Bengal generally the former is to the latter as three to one. This ex- ceptional fact is, of course, attributable to the circumstance that Delhi has always been regarded as the head- quarters aud capital of the Mahosnmedan population of ln& is,.— Allen's Indian Mail. INLAND NAVIGATION OE INDIA.— An influential meeting of roerehants and others was held on Tuesday afternoon, in the Manchtster Town Hall, to receive information in reference to the intended operations of the newly- formed Oriental Inland Steam Company. The meeting was addressed by Mr J, A. Tur- ner, M. P., who'prefcided, and by Captain Hal) ( of the Nemesis), Mr Bourne, and Lieutenant Wood, of the Indian navy; these three gentlemen being a deputation from the company. It was stated that the company were about to commence the steam navigation of the Indus, by means of flat- bottomed boats of 24- inches draught, trains of which would be towed by steam- boats of 200- horse power; and under terms of a concession from the East India Company, which was tantamount to a guarantee of 10 per cent on the outlay. Several gentlemen expressed their conviction of the importance of extending the inland navigation of India, and the chairman commented emphatically on the urgency of the cotton supply question, and the apparent neglect of it by a large portion of the trade. Resolutions were passed unanimously, recognising the importance of the scheme, and appointing au influential committee for the diffusion of mformar tion on the subject and aiding the London board in the prompt execution of the enterprise. THE TEANSPOET SEEVICE TO INDIA.— The European and American Steam Shipping Cempany, who are now the owners of the fleet of ships built for the India postal service via the Cape, by the General Screw Steam Shipping Company, have made a proposal to the Chairman aud East India Board to establish a monthly line of steam transports from Southampton, overland, to Bengal, or such of the Presidencies as may most require im- mediate reinforcements. The fleet possessed by the contractors consists of eight powerful screw steam- ships, already most fa- vourably known during the late war, and fully capable, as we are informed, of carrying out the proposed service. Four of these vessels have been already chartered by the East India Companv — the Golden Fleece, 2,700 tons ; the Lady Jocelyn, 2,258 tons ; the Queen of the South, 2,250 tons; and the Hydaspes, 2,250 tons. The other four now employed upon the Bremen and New York trade, of equal size auci similar accommodation, it is sug- gested, shall be withdrawn from that trade, and placed at the disposal of the East India Board in the course of the months of October and November, so as to give a perfect line of steam com- munication with India. The first of the ships already despatched to India could discharge her troops and reach Suez in sufficient time to receive the regiments forwarded from Southampton in the moRth of October, be they drafts or reserves, while she could also deliver at Suez such of the British troops invalided as had reached Calcutta or the other Presidencies by the end of Sept. or October. The advantage of this arrangement, shortly stated, would be a direct and regular communication with India monthly, or more frequently if necessary, by ships within the absolute control of the board, with the power to forward to Bombay, within 45 or 50 days, from England, such reserves er reinforcements as may be required, and with a speed and cer- tainty of despatch which has not as yet been attempted. One of the peculiar features of the service is that the four ships on the Indian side of the Isthmus being of precisely the same character in point of size and fittings with those on the European side, the troops embarked in England, on reaching Suez from Alexandria, would find the same accommodation prepared for them there as that from which they had but a few hours before disembarked, an advantage which those who are familiar with the transport of large bodies of men can alone entirely appreciate. A CEIMEAN HEEO.— On her Majesty's arrival at Holyrood on Friday evening week she noticed a man in the livery of a park- keeper, who was decorated with the Crimean medal and clasps, the China war medal, the medal given by the Emperor of the French, a » d the Victoria Cross. Her Majesty inquired about the gallant fellow, who had recently been appointed by Sir Ben- jamin Hall to the office he holds, and gave orders that he should attend at the palace on the following morning. He attended ac- cordingly on Saturday morning, and, before leaving, her Ma- jesty spoke to him in the most gracious manner of his gallant conduct, which had earned for him such honours as those which he wore upon his breast, and, on learning from Sir Benjamin Hall that the new lodge in front of the palace would be com- pleted in a few weeks, and had not been promised to any one, was pleased to direct that it should be occupied by the brave soldier. The name of this recipient of her Majesty's favour is Samuel Evans. He enlisted in the 26th Regiment in 1839, and remained in it 124 years ; served in China and the East, and was in three general engagements in China. He volunteered from the 26th to the 19th Regiment, and was in three actions — at the Alma, Inkermann, and Sebastopol, in the latter of which he was wounded both in the left breast and arm. As we have stated, he has her Majesty's medal for China, the Crimean medal with three clasps, the Order of Valour, and the French war medal; and, though now no longer in the army, he wiil re- main in her Majesty's service, decorated with the glories of war. THE LOSS OP THE SCREW STEAMEE NIGEE.— OPPICIAL IN- QUIEX.— On Thursday, at the Greenwich police court, Mr Traill, assisted by Capt Harris, of the East India Company's service, held an official investigation into the loss of the African Steam Shipping Company's screw steamer, Niger, of 482 tons register, which was wrecked off Teneriffe, on the 12th of June last ( while conveying her Majesty's mail homeward), as alleged by mistak- ing the lights on the southern coast of Santa Cruz. Mr Cumber- land attended for the Board of Trade, and Mr Field for Capt J as. Howard Rolt, the master of the ship. Mr Bowstred, the chief clerk, also attended to take the depositions. Mr Cumberland having briefly opened the case, by stating tnat the proceedings were instituted by the Board of Trade, under the Merchant Shipping Act, Capt Jas. Howard Rolt was sworn, and after having given a lucid and lengthened account of the ship's voyage and her subsequent loss, gave it as his opinion that it was mainly attributable to the light of sshe mole at Santa Cruz being shifted, and the strong current from the N. E., which he was not aware of at that time, and the darkness of the night, which prevented his judging the distance from| the shore and head of the ravine called Barrance de Santos, extending so much further out than it did in 1833, and the want of control over the ship in not having head- way in, for want of wind and steam, and also from the uneven- ness of the bottom of the sea.— Other witnesses having been examined, Mr Traill, Captain Harris, and Mr Cumberland re- tired, and af ter a short deliberation returned into court, when Mr Traill, addressing Captain Rolt, said by the wording of the act the inquiry was, as to whether the loss of the vessel was attributable to the wrongful act or fault on his ( Captain Rolt's) part; and he had much pleasure in saying, that nimseif and Captain Harris thought it right on their part to state, that their opinion was that the loss of the Niger was not occasioned by his neglect of duty. They desired to state such an opinion at the present stage of the proceedings, in order to set arrest the f eel- ings of Captain Rolt and his friends, without waiting for the issue of their report from the Board of Trade, but which report weuld shortly be forwarded, with suggestions, for the better security of the service for the future.— Captain Harris theu handed the certificate to Captain Rolt, who left the court amidst the congratulations of his friends. CRYSTAL PALACE.— THE TONIC SOL- PA ASSOCIATION.— One of the most popular, and certainly the most populous, of Crystal Palace gatherings we have yet witnessed was on the occasion of the juvenile concert of the Tonic Sol- fa Association. Thirty thousand people were whirled by rail to the crystal arcades of Sydenham without accident or inconvenience, while more than 10,000 were estimated to have entered by other avenues. TMs is irrespective of the 3,000 female children, youths, and their pre- ceptors, who occupied the great orchestra raised for the Handel commemoration. There was one slight drawback, to be re- medied another day— a phrase that childhood can hardly realise— three thousand were expected, i nclusive, we presume, of conductors, preceptors, & c, but at the latest hour it was found that some hundreds were too late for the latest train at the company's disposal for this purpose, and were necessarily left behind, to their intei. se, but of course evanescent, grief. The " book of words" contained a remarkably well- judged collection— we say collection, for the quantity was so great, aud the styles so varied, that selection would be hardly the epithet. Hymns, airs from Handel, Sabbath- school melodies, patriotic songs, glees, & c, were among the specimens of the juvenile musical talent to be scattered broadcast over the homes of England in a few short years by the instrumentality of the mighty machinery of the Tonic Sol- fa Association. This was a people's festival, and the people responded to the call. We will not dwell here on the diligence of the teachers, or the public amount of praise due to Mr Sarll and Mr W. S. Young, the con- ductors, and the long list of preceptors who, in various parts of the vast metropolis, have been engaged in this fruitful and de- lightful task. The exhibition of yesterday must be their reward. The execution of" God Save the Queen," at the close, was fol- lowed by the heartiest cheering we ever heard, in which the 3,000 juveniles, to the delight of the company, gave a most noisy, | yet really musical effect. The Tonic Sol- fa gathering is one of the not- too- numerous successes of the Crystal Palace, MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. TEOOPS POS INDIA,— The Khersonese steam- snip embarked at Portsmouth on Saturday week the following officers and troops for India :— Lieut- Col C. W, D. Staveley, C. B., Major A.

D.; Assistant- Surgeons W. S. Murray and F. Fol- liett, and 732 non- commissioned officers and men of the 66th Regiment for India, with whom she sailed on Sunday. On Thursday week the head- quarters of the 56th Regiment, com- prising four companies, with the band and staff, embarked on board the River steamer for Queenstown, bound for India. The names of the officers who accompanied the men are :— Lieutenant- Colonels Lacy aud Hoylaud, C. B, ; Captains Margeson, Ramsay, Bassett, and Godley; Lieutenants Har- ford, Baxter, Hill, Curven, Sims, Williams, aud Thompson, Ensign Wright, Paymaster Henley, Quartermaster M'Grath, Surgeon Deeble, and Assistant- Surgeon Parr. On Tuesday af- ternoon the second battalion of the Coldstream Guards, accom- panied by the band of the regiment, embarked at Liverpool in the steamer Trafalgar, for Dublin. The Trafalgar went alongside the new floating landing- stage, upwards of 1,000 feet long, which was thrown open for traffic and to the public for the first time on Tuesday. On the same day reinforcements for the 7th Fusi- liers, 20th, 24th, 27th Ennbkillens, 52d Light Infantry, and S7th Royal Irish Fusiliers, to the number of 65 non- commissioned officers and men, under the command of Capt H. Mitford, 27th Regiment, prooeeded from Chatham garrison to Gravesend, where they embarked on board the Alipore for Kurrachee. TEOOPS POE INDIA.— On Thursday morning 185 men of the Royal Artillery, from Ballincollig, with their officers, a battery ( C) of two guns, baggage and stores, embarked on board the Athletse, at Queetistowii, for India direct. The 8th Hussars aud 17 th Lancers are under orders for immediate embarkation for India. The 18th and 94th Regiments arc also under orders for the Cape of Good Hope, to proceed to India, together with the 51st Regiment. MOVEMENTS OP TEOOPS.— The depots of the 19th and 20th Regiments, consisting of two companies each, arrived at the Provisional Battalion, Chatham, on Saturday week, from Chi- chester and Parkhurst Barracks, for the purpose of relieving the Highland depots ordered from Chatham to Aberdeen, and the Rifle depots ordered to Colchester. The 19th and 20th depots number about 250 non- commissioned officers and men, with the following officers, namely, Capt L. D, H. Currie, Lieut F. Davis, and Lieut G. F. Webster, 19th Regt; Capt O. Lutyern. Lieut C. G. Rochfort, Lieut J. H. H. St John, Lieut J. C. Cox, Lieut Hancock, Ensign C. K. Cnatfield, Ensign F. Mansel, and Ensign J. Aldridge, 20th Regt.— The sailing transport Alipore, M'Murdock master, having previously shipped a oemplete bat- tery of 6- pounder guns and a quantity of military stores, em- barked ou Saturday week Lieut- Col Price and Capt Connell's X field battery company of Itoyal Artillery, together with the detachments of gunners and drivers, amounting to 10 officers and 208 rank and file, for Kurrachee. MONSTEE MOETAE.— The second of the two huge 36- inch mortars, manufactured by Messrs Millet and Co, of Blackwall, under the special design oi Lord Palmerston, has been eonvayed to W oolwich to undergo an experimental trial. This monster can- non, like the former one landed at the Arsenal Wharf about ten days ago, is wrought in five moveable segments, the respective weight of which, together with the bed and gear, is as follows :— Principal compartment, containing breech and chamber, 21 tons 19awt 21b; oak bed, 8 tons 8cwt 141b; second compartment, 7 tons 5cwt 3qrs 41b ; third ditto, 5 tons 8cwt 3qrs 23lb ; fourth ditto, 3 tons 2qrs 131b; fifth ditto, 1 ton 2ewS Sqrs 12ib. The hoops, rings, and other gear pertaining thereto vary from 16cwt to 6cwt each; the whole of which, including the keys and minor fittings, amount to a total of 50 tons 13cwt 2qrs 2l! b. On ac- count of the ponderous size of the shell, weighing 26ewt, the process of loading will be effected by means of a portable crane, termed a gyn, to lift the bulky missile into the gun. The trial, if successful, will put the Government ia possession of the most formidable weapon for the purposes of siege yet invented. The proofs will commence with a minimum charge of 101b of powder, to be gradually increased. EXPEEIMEKTS WITH MARTIN'S SHELLS.— A final experiment with these shells, conducted by the inventor, took place on Wednesday in Plumstead Marshes. These shells were brought under the consideration of Government on the 1st of April, 1S56, and have since undergone four experimental trials. The butt was the old 36 gun frigate, fitted out with upper and oriop decks, as used on the former trials. The gun, a 68- pounder of 8- iuch calibre, fired five shots filled with the burning liquid at a distance of 900 yards, two of which penetrated the broadside facing the gun, The result was perceptible immediately after the first shot was fired, as smoke was observed issuing from the portholes on either side. The third shot fell slightly short of the mark, burst, and cast its destructive contents with fearful effect on the ship, and the other two shots were embedded in the ground without striking the target. A powerful engine from the Royal Arsenal was in attendance, but after the utmost exertions on the part of the firemen to subdue the progress of the flames the pumps were ordered to be withdrawn, and the ship's timbers were shortly reduced to a few blackened and charred planks. PEESENTATION OP SAEDINIAN MEDALS AT MALTA.— The following officers and men of the garrison at Malta kave received the above honourable distinction. At the Valetta District :— Staff; Major General Warren, C. B.; Lu- utenarit- Col Halleweil, Assistant Adjutant- General Captain Ellison, A. D. C. 14th Regt: Captain John J. May cock, Sergeant W. Hopkins. 21st Regt;: Serg « aot- Major W. Fowler, Colour- Sergeant Richard Ellis. 28th Regt: Uolonel F. Adams, C. B.; Corporal John M'Laughlin, Private W.

The names of Brevet- Major Hammersley, 14th Regt, and Major Maunsell, 28th Regt, absent on leave, and Drummer Norton, 57th Regt, at the depot, are also among the list of honoured men who have won this mark ef distinction, THE GENEEAL COUET- MAETIAL AT CHATHAM.— Last week the members of the general Court- martial re assembled at Chatham Barracks, under the presidency of Colonel H. Jervis, to proceed with the trial of Captain James S. Maeauley, 1st West India Regiment, who was charged with '* insubordi- nate conduct, in having, at Government House, Sierra Leone, ou the 6th of March, 1857, disobeyed the lawful command of Lieut- Col S. J. Hill, 2d West India Regiment, commanding the troops at Sierra Leone and its dependencies, his superior officer, in refusing to assume the command of a detachment of the 1st West India Regiment, stationed at Tower- hill Barracks, Sierra Leone, he at the time b ; ing the senior officer of his corps, Lieut- Col J. Clarke being in arrest." After hearing evidence and, the pri- soner's defence, the court deliberated for a quarter of an hour. The decision will not be known until approved by the Com- mander- iu- Chief. The court then proceeded with the trial of Captain C. J, Dewse, R. A., who was charged with having made a false report to his commanding officer, and also with conduct unbecoming the character of an officer and a gentleman, by leaving certain debts unpaid at St Helena. At the close of the case for the prosecution the prisoner addressed the court, ex- pressing a hope that it would take a merciful view of his case. The court then deliberated for a short time, after which it broke up, having been occupied nearly a fortnight with these trials. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. ADMIEAL LYONS'S SQUADEON.— Of the squadron under Ad- miral Lord Lyons tidings have been received up to the 12th of August, when the Osprey steam gun- boat left the Royal Albert, Conqueror, Centurion, aud Princess Royal screw line- of battle ships, Curlew and Vigilant steam- sloops, off Malaga. After a stay of about three weeks at Malta the squadron will visit Corfu, returning to Malta about the end of October to take up winter mooring;'. The Ariel i3 at Gibraltar, and the vulture at Oran. The only ships at Malta were the Hibernia ( receiving vessel), Osprey ( steam gun- boat, under orders for Constantinople), and the Hearty ( s'team- tug). The Desperate and Caradoc continue at Alexandria, the Harpy at Corfu, and the Medina at the mouth of the Danube. MOVEMENTS OP SHIPS OP WAE.— The Mermaid freight- ship sailed from Portsmouth on Saturday week, laden with Govern- ment provisions for the troops in India.— The Trineomalee, 24, Captain Wallace Houstoun, from the Pacific, arrived at Ply- mouth on Saturday week. She left Rio Janeiro June 29, and has brought invalided officers and men from the Pacific and South American stations. She received orders on the same day to proceed to Chatham.— The Chesapeake, 51, screw steam- frigate, Commodore R. B. Watson, C. B., has proceeded from Chatham to Sheerness, from which port she will sail to Porte- mouth, previously to taking her departure for the East Indies.— Her Majesty's ship Trincomalee, 25 guns, Captain Houston, has arrived at Plymouth in 61 days from Rio Janeiro. The Trinco- Bialee has been five years and nine days absent from England; out of this time she has been 1,009 days at sea, and has sailed over 118,000 miles; her station bas been the Pacific.— The trans- port Waterloo, Captain Young, sailed from Queenstown on Saturday week for Calcutta with the four companies of the 56th Regiment which she had embarked on Thursday previous.— The Rifleman, 8, steam- vessel, Lieutenant Christian, arrived at Spit- head on Wednesday from the South- East coast of America station. APPOINTMENTS.— The following appointments have been made at the Admiralty:— Lieuts: Richard Moore to the Valorous, T. H. Bucknell to the Styx, C. F. Palmer to the Victory, 101, flag- ship, at Portsmouth ; Hon T. F. Fitzmaurice to the Valorous, 16, paddle, at Devonport.— Midshipmen : K, L. Cox and B. F. Clarke to the Diadem, 32, screw, at Portsmouth ; John Hayden to the Pelorus, 21, screw, at Devonport.— W. W. Thompson has been appointed additional Acting- Assistant- Surgeon to the Victory. THE ROYAL ALBEET BEIDGE OVEE THE TAMAB.— The enor- mous iron tube, which, with the rail attached, weighed 1,100 tons, was on Tuesday, at one o'clock, successfully floated by Mr Brunei from the Devon side of the Tamar. Shortly after three o'clock one end was safely lodged on the Cornish side and the other on the pier in the centre of the river. The rail is now five feet above high water, but will be 102 feet six inches when lifted by hydraulic power three feet at a time at either end. The arched tube is 474 feet long, and the railway 450 feet. The erec- tion of a similar tube on the Devon side will finish the most important engineering work for unitingCornwall with Plymouth, Bristol, and London by the Great Western Railway to London. Mr Michael Williams, chairman of the Cornwall line, and Capt Harrison, of the Great Eastern steam- ship, were with Mr Brunei. The Port- Admiral and Admiral Superintendent were in their barges; and, the Royal Arsenal being closed and the weather fine, an immense concourse assembled, and hailed with delight the complete success of this important undertaking. HEBE STAUDIGL.— At a concert given by the Imperial Lunatic Asylum of Vienna, on the birthday of the Emperor, the cele- brated singer Staudigl was present. It is already known that he has been for some time under treatment in this institution, and his appearance gave great delight to all present, which was increased when afterwards, in the presence of a small circle of friends, Staudigl sang the " Wanderer" of Schubert, with such depth of feeling and expression as affected many of his hearers even to tears. THE STATUE OP JENNEE.— It is decided to place the statue of Jenner— the fruit of an European subscription— in the open space at Trafalgar- square. The statue will be placed on the same front of the square, but at the opposite corner, to that occupied by the effigy of the late Sir Charles Napier. OMNIBUS COEEESPONDENCE.— The " corresponding " system of the London General Omnibus Company has succeeded beyond all expectation. At the three central corresponding offices, in Regent Circus, Cheapside, and Bisliopsgate, upwards of 4,000 passengers " correspond" daily, the principal portion of whom are ladies. The gain to the company under this arrangement, which brings almost the whole of their 600 omnibuses in con- nection, is great— the curious result having been worked out that this peculiar traffic and interchange of passengers takes place for the most part in that portion of the day when omnibuses passing to and from the centre points of traffic would not, under the direct system, have many passengers. In due course, this system, which may be considered as yet only in its infancy, will one fare ( 6d), simply by placing himself in any omnibus of the company, and passing by that until another omnibus, going his road, may cross the line of that in which he is travelling. NEW SAPETY RAILWAY BEEAK.— Public attention is now being directed to a recently invented " self- actingrailway brake," which is peculiarly adapted for express trains, and calculated to diminish greatly the danger which now attends tr . veiling at high velocities. The inventor is a French engineer of the name of'Guerin. From an official report now before us, made to the French Minister of Public Works by a commission appointed to examine this break, we extract the following :—" { Juerin's is ia. contestably superior to all other brakes vet invented, surpassing them all by its simplicity, its certainty and promptitude of action, and its combined practical merits." Accordingly the French Government, in January last, recommended by circular to all the railway companies in France, the adoption of this break, and already it is in use on the Orleans, Northern, Western, and Bourdonnais lines. It appears to us that M Gueriu has suc- cessfully solved the problem propounded, but left unsolved, by the late George Stephenson, shortly before his death, and has completely realised that eminent engineer's conception of a thoroughly effective ami automatic break. A model of M Guerin's apparatus, which is as simple as it is ingenious, may be seen at the Institute of Civil Engineers, in Great George- street, West- minster, where it excites the admiration of all who examine it. Considerations of public safety and economy induce us to give the publicity of our columns to tlais important invention, which merits the earnest attention of the railway world, THE MUEDEE IN THE HAMPSTEAD ROAD.— On Saturday week Mr G. S. Brent, deputy- coroner for West Middlesex, held an inquest at the Lord Wellington Tavern, University- street, Tot- tenham Court- road, into the circumstances attending the death of Gallo Beuzonelli, aged nineteen years, who died on Tuesday week from injuries inflicted on him with a knife by Cornelius Denny, a smith, on Sunday morning week. Witnesses having deposed to the facts already known, the jury returned a verdict of Wilful Murder against Denny. Loss OP LIPB BY FIEB.— On Wednesday W. Pavne, Esq. the coroner of the city of London, received information of the death of a young woman, named Fanny Craven, aged 22 years, under the following circumstances:— She was a servant in a gentle- man's family, at Lee, in Kent, and was standing with her back to the fire, when the wiod from the kitchen- door wafted her dress against the bars of the grate. The dress ignited, and she was soon enveloped in one body of fire. Her screams brought assistance, when the flames were extinguished, and she was con- veyed by train to St Thomas's Hospital, where every assistance was rendered, till death put a period to her existence. ACCIDENT AT THE UBION CLUB HOUSE.— On Wednesday morning, between eleven aud twelve o'clock, a serious accident happened at the Union Club- house, Cockspur- street, Charing- cross. The outside of the building is being re- painted, and one of the workmen, named Peter Danton, was working on the scaf- fold outside, when, by some mischance, he lost his footing, and fell some twenty feet on the pavement. He was taken up msen « sible, and removed to Chariug- cross Hospital, where he was immediately attended to by the medical officer of the institution. Upon examination of his injuries it. was found that he had sus- tained a severe scalp wound, iu addition to beiisg considerably shaken and bruised by the concussion. There does not appear to be any blame attaching to any part of the scaffolding, and it is conjectured that the man forgot himself for a moment, and stepped too far in a backward direction, so as to fall over. EXECUTION AT LANCASTEE.— OH Saturday week, at noon, the sentence of death passed upon Edward Hsrdman for the wilful murder of his wife was carried into effect in front of the castle. It will be remembered that the culprit, who was a shoe- maker, residing at Chorley, and who was ia his 28th year, was tried and convicted before Mr Baron Watson, at the late Lan- caster assizes, of the crime of poisoning his wife by repeated doses of tartar emetic. A few minutes before twelve o'clock the tolling of the castle bell signalled the approach of the procession, and iu a few minutes afterwards the convict and Oalcraft walked on to the scaffold. The Rev 11. Brown also appeared on the scaffold, whilst Capt Hansbrow, the governor of the gaol, re- mained at the door. Calcraft at osce proceeded with his dread- ful preparations. Having drawn the white cap over the uufor- the bolt was withdrawn, and with but a faint struggle Edward Hardman yielded up the life which the laws of his country had demanded. OPENING OP THE NEW LANDING- STAGE AT LIVERPOOL. ™ The new landing- stage, recently erected by the corporation of Liverpool, at a cost of £ 150,000, was opened on Tuesday; by Charles Turner, Esq, chairman of the Dock Estate. The stage is 1,000 feet long, and moored off the Prince's Pier. Its ap- proaches are four cast- iron bridges, of great strength, placed at equal distances from each other. The material of which the stage is constructed is of the hardest wood procurable, and from its being elevated slightly in the centre, and being grooved every three inches, no water can remain on the surface, so the wood ia not likely to receive any material detriment through damp. At each end arrangements are made for loading and unloading small steamers, with greater facilities than are at present pos- sessed at the different piers. The whole has been " constructed from the de& ign of Sir William Cubitt, the celebrated engineer, and built by Messrs Thomas Venton and Sons, of Liverpool. It is calculated that it will accommodate the eutire ocean trade of the port, and is likely te prove a vast boon to commerce. CHILD- MUEDEE IN HYDH- PAEK.— On Saturday week an in- quiry teok place in the board- room of St George's Workhouse, Mount- street, Grosvenor- square, before Mr Langham, the deputy coroner for Westminster, on the body of a new- born female infant, found strangled ana drowned in the Serpentine river, Hyde- park, at an early hour on Friday.— It appeared, from the evidence of Mr Superintendent Williams, of the Royal Humane Society, Parsons, the principal boatman, and other witnesses, that between six and seven o'clock on the morning above named, some gentlemen were fishing near Kensington- gardous- bridge, when a spaniel dog belonging to one of them laid hold of something in the water, which drew the attention of the party to the spot, when they observed a parcel floating on the surface of the water; they immediately communicated with the Royal Humane Receiving- house, and Parsons was sent off in his boat, and on bringing the naroel ashore, followed by the dog, he opened it, and discovered the body of the infant, which appeared full grown, and bad the mark of a ligature round the neck.— Dr Christian said he had made a post mortem examination, which did not enable him to say positively whether the infant was bom alive or otherwise : but it no doubt had been neglected at the birth. Verdict—" That the body of the infaiit was taken out of the water ; but whether born alive and murdered, or otherwise, there was no evidence to prove." ANOTHEE FATAL GUN X\ CCIDENT.— The Dublin Evening Mail records the death of Mr R. W. Smith, while grouse* shooting on Thursday week, in the neighbourhood of Newport, in the county of Mayo. Mr Edwards, cousin of the deceased, gives the following account of the occurrence :—" About three o'clock in the afternoon one of our dogs came to a point on the top of a small bank. We went up, and stood over the dog, ex- pecting the birds to rise, when my poor cousin exclaimed, 11 see the bird ; it is a dead one, and must be one of those we fired at above.' In saying so, he ran down the bank to get it, aud as I was about to follow, my foot caught in the heather, and I fell down the declivity. In the fall the left barrel of my gun went off, and, awful to relate, lodged the whole of its contents in the back of my unfortunate cousin. He exclaimed,' O God, 1 am shot,' and as soon as I got up I saw him lying on his back about ten yards from me. I ran up, and asked him if he was much hurt ? At first he said not, as he felt no pain, but when I saw the nature ox the wound I knew there was no hope, and told Mm so. He died in less than twenty minutes after he was struck." CRYSTAL PALACE.— Another display of the entire system of fountains and waterworks at the Crystal Palace took place oa Saturday week, and was witnessed by a numerous and, for a period of the year when London may be said to have " gone out of town," a very fashionable company. The weather was fine, but more than once a shower was threatened, and the total absence of sunshine materially diminished the grandeur of the effects produced. The display of the fountains was witnessed by the ex- Queen of the French, who, with her attendants, occu- pied the open gallery next the north wing of the palace. The selection of music performed by the company's band in the centre transept was of a highly classical character, and included the first act of " Les Huguenots," Meyerbeer ; overture to the " Siege of RscheUe," Balfe ; overture to " Semiramide," Ros- sini ; grand finale from " Mose in Egitto," Rossini; " Invitation a la Valse," Weber ; and overture to " Masaniello," Auber. THE HEALTH OP LONDON.— The deaths registered in London in the week that ended on Saturday, August 29, were 1,177 ; in the previous week they were 1,091. Last week the births were 857 boys and 799 girls, ia all 1,666 children. PEINCEOS'S CONCEET ROOMS.— Mr Framptoa, the well- known M. C. of the principal public bails, is about to open the above rooms for the winter season; the arrangements are very com- plete and on a scale which will ensure success. All who are ignorant of this useful accomplishment ( dancing) should go to the Princess's Rooms. FROM THE LONDON GAZETTE OF TUESDAY, SEPT 1. BANKRUPTCY ANNULLED.

BETTING AT TATTERS ALL'S MONDAY, AUG 81.— The rising of the House having enabled members to get away to enjoy the commencement of partridge shooting on the morrow, and many of the bookmakers having " taken wing" for the Curragh, the Subscription Room was very thinly attended. Speculation in consequence was by no means extensive, and of no interest whatever exoept in connection with the two favourites for the " Sellinger." At the City Club during the morning, Ignoramus is report ed to have had the call of Blink Bonny, but at " the Corner" the mare was unmistakeably the " better horse," and 7 to 4 was scarcely obtainable about her. whilst 2 to 1 was laid to the best part of a thousand pounds against Ignoramus, and the same price offered against him at the close. Beyond the advance of Imperieuse from 50 to 40 to 1 and a few transactions upon the Derby, the remainder of the business transacted does not call for notice. We have oaly one quotation upon the Great Yorkshire Handicap, and did not see a blow struck on the Leamington Stakes, though " outside" Uzella was ail the rage for the latter event, Tasmania Blink Bonny GREAT YORKSHIRE HANDICAP.

It contains a complete calendar of sport down to the 1st of September, in addition to a summary of the betting and other valuable Turf statistics. FORGED NOTES.— We take the opportunity of cautioning the sporting public against the circulation of forged Bank of Eng land notes, one of which— a " fiver"— was " rung" upon us at York, and after being again paid away at that place, returned to us at Warwick on the discovery of the fraud. We shall be glad to afford the chevalier d'Industrie who victimised us an op- portunity of redeeming his " promise to pay" at our office, where the note may be had " on demand !"• Messrs Tattersall's sales of blood stock at Doncaster, which are expected to be unprecedestedly numerous, will this year take place inside the yard of the Salutation, instead of in the hieh road in front of the house. MONMOUTH RACES.— The Monmouthshire Handicap closed on Tuesday last with 20 subs, the Ladies' Plate with 15 subs, the Troy Plate with 15 subs, the County Members' Plate with 13 subs, the Chippenham Stakes with 18 subs, and the Beaufort Cup with 16 subs. MANCHESTER AUTUMN MEETING.— The City Handicap Plate of 60 sovs closed on Tuesday last with 25 entries, the Grand Stand Handicap Plate of 60 sovs with 25 entries, aud the Half Holiday Nursery Handicap Plate of 70 sovs with 27 entries; the weights will be published on Thursday in the Doncaster week. WREXHAM RACES.— The Wyunstay Handicap closed on Tues day last with 35 subs. The Gold Cup and Juvenile Stakes, not having filled, have been re- opened to close on the Tuesday after Doncaster. LEICESTER — The Belvoir closed with 4 subs, the County Cup with 6 subs, the Handicap for gentlemen ridgrs with 6 subs, the Two Year Old Stakes with 12 subs, and the Nursery Handicap with 15 subs. There will be races at Littlehampton on the 17th inst. ERRATUM.— Mr Tittenson, the owner of English Rose, informs us that his filly was fourth and not placed for the Two Year Old Handicap at Radcliffe— not third, as returned by our reporter. We regret to inform our readers that Deer, the jockey, who met with" an accident at Ipswich Races, died in the infirmary at Ipswich on Monday last, having sustained a severe concussion of the brain ( from which he never rallied), in addition to other injuries. Job Marscn, we learn, has been ordered to the seaside for the purpose of restoring his health, which has been sadly under- mined by cold caught during wasting before Epsom. We must again caution the public against a fellow advertising in the name of Mr Thomas Hughes— no connection of the mem- ber of Tattersall's of that name— who changes his quarters after almost every race meeting. Several correspondents have written to complain of their inability to get their winnings, after for- warding money to him to " put on" for them. THE " RING" ON THE PAVE.— At Guildhall police court, on Friday, John Kenningfcon was charged before Alderman Halo with obstructing the thoroughfare and assaulting City police constable Lee, 346, while in the execution of his duty. The officer stated that abeut half- past twelve on the afternoon in question he saw a crowd collected in Bride- lane and the prisoner among them. He desired them to go away, and all did so, with the exception of the prisoner, who refused, saying that he was waiting for a man who owed him some money. It was a very frequent occurrence for a number of betting men to collect there aud make their investments, and the inhabitants of the district complained. Police constable, 315, corroborated this latter statement, but added, that he believed the majority of the men consisted of touters, and not " regular betting men." The prisoner had frequently been warned.— Alderman Hale ex- pressed his intention of putting down all such nuisances, and inflicted a penalty of £ 5, or, in default of payment, one month's imprisonment. The prisoner was locked up in default.—[ With all due deference to this decision, we beg to inform the authori- ties, that the evil rests entirely with themselves, and this case only tends to bear out the assertion. The public will find some means of investing their money, and so long as they were allowed to do so undisturbed no one suffered annoyance; but now that the men are turned out of doors the above difficulty has arisen as a natural consequence attendant upon so unwise a proceed- ing. The authorities have the remedy in their own hands, and it is much to be lamented that they have not sufficient wisdom to put it in practice.] THE MOORS, FORESTS, RIVERS, & c. MR EDITOR : The returns from the moors this season have been very bad, and when such has not been the case the infor- mation given in the Scotch papers is not to be relied upon. In no single instance has the sport been first- rate, and in but few places has even fair sport been obtained; generally, grouse shooting has been a complete failure. We talk of giving salmon further protection. We shall have to take steps to preserve grouse from utter extermination. There ought not to have been a single bird shot this season, but when such prices are asked and obtained, sportsmen, having their places for the season only, will of course kill all they can, which this year will not average £ 1 per brace— rather' dear sport! Some may say, " It is not the number of birds we kill which is of much consequence; we have our walk and our out." If the exercise is all they want, they may have it cheaper than by paying £ 300 or £ 400. In coming to a conclusion regarding the goodness of the season, you may say " we are premature, the season is not yet over; but all grouse shooters know that no great bags are made after the end of August. Highland proprietors have got into the way of dividing their shootings into small beats, thus improving their rents, but depriving the sportsman of the chief pleasure and inducement of coming so far nortk— a large extent of ground to travel over. The constant answer is, when you ask, " Does such or such hill side belong to the shootings?" " Oh no, it belongs to the other beat." " The privilege of fishing such and such lake or river is included in this desirable shoot- ing" sounds grand, but any one knowing the place at all is quite aware that there are no fish to be caught longer than your finger. Indeed no sport can be expected even in the best fishing quarters during August and September, as the weather is gene- rally fine and the water low, and when rain does come the season is over, so that whichever way a poor deluded fellow turns, he finds nothing but disappointment and disgust. I am, however, glad to hear that these exorbitant rents are not quite so easily obtained. I understand that a large renter of moors in Perth- shire will this season be poorer by £ 1,000, in consequence of not gettisg what he asks, and what he has hitherto obtained. Under the mo3t favourable circumstances it must take two or three years, at least, before the grouse shooting caa be again first- rate. Let English sportsmen therefore resolutely set their faces against high rents, and not be cheated by those " canny Scotch." How absurd is it. One man takes a shooting, and to help to pay ex- penses he looks out for some friends to join hia, from whom he obtains £ 100 each for one month's shooting, which by no means pays their friend's expenses ; he has to add another £ 50 at least. This is indeed paying rather dear for his whistle.— Yours, & c, KILLGROUSE. P. S.— The number of grouseactually killed ought certainly to bear some proportion to the rent demanded, which is not now the case. It would be better to pay 5s or even 10s a brace, keep- ing a fair and honest account, rather than by the present plan, being at the rate of £ 10 a brace, or even more. The rents are made payable in advance, so there is no redress, and grumbling avails nothing. HARROW SCHOOL.— An extra week has been added to the present holidays, at the request of Lord Palmerston, in honour of the new chapel, which is rapidly approaching its completion. The school re- opens on Wednesday, the 16th inst. OTTERS AT ROXBURGH CASTLE. — One of our distinguished anglers, while pursuing the gentle vocation on the Teviot a few days ago, observed, on a ledge ef a rock, at the Maisondieu streams, a little above Roxburgh Castle, no fewer than seven otters. We believe the above number witnessed all at once is unprecedented in the district, and augurs well for excellent sport to Ms Grace of Atfaol's otter hounds when they arrrive. WARWICK SEPTEMBER MEETING. Stewards : Hon Admiral Rous, C, Greville, Esq, and M. Philips, Esq. Clerk of the Course : Mr S. Merry. Judge : Mr Clark. Starter : Mr Hibburd. Clerk of the Scaies: Mr E. Hibburd. Mr Merry's attempt to get up a third day's racing at the Ser. tember reunion last year having proved the reverse of successful in a pecuniary point of view, the extra day was this year wisely abandoned, and the meeting confined to its original " dimen- It would not be difficult to recall the period when raciug affairs enjoyed greater prosperity in Warwickshire even under Mr M.' s regime, but sucoess cannot at all times be com- manded, and in the present overcrowded state of the Calendar it is surprising that so many meetings manage to exist at all. Any shortcomings, therefore, that may be presented on this occasion must be attributed as much to this as to any other cause ; and if fewer horses were sent to Warwick on this occasion than formerly, a glance at our '* list of fixtures" must satisfy the most sceptical that, until a re- duction in the number of race meetings takes place, no im- provement can be looked for. The programme for the present anniversary exhibited the industry with which the indefatigable Clerk of the Course had laboured to sustain the popularity of the meeting, and though from the causes referred to, we have again to report small fields, the meeting on the whole went off with fully average success, notwithstanding the unpropitious state of the weather, the change wherein on Wednesday was so very extraordinary that top coats, which would have been an incum. brance two days previously, proved most acceptable, owing to the March- like coldness of the atmosphere. From these causes, added to the couuter- attractions of the first week of September, so dear to sportsmen, the show of company was uncommonly small, albeit amongst those present we were pleased to observe a select muster of the Turf's staunchest patrons on both days, together with a pretty fair show of gentlemen, amongst whom the Ring found backers of horses sufficiently numerous to afford their metallics plenty of employment. The meeting commenced auspiciously for the fielders with the Shorts Handicap, wherein a " pot" on Blue Rock was upset by Oitenitza, who had the advantage of a good start and suDerior jookeyship over the favourite, whose chance was by no means improved by getting off behind everything else. The Guineas exhibited a pretty fair entry, but only Oakball's owner was bold euough to " hav< i a cut" at Fisherman, who, no longer adopting the " following" tactics, never caused the layers of odds the slightest uneasiness, The success of an outsider in a selling race at Warwick is an ev^ at of rare occurrence, but in the Racing Stakes, won by Amoi- ous Boy, the bookmakers, mirabUe dictu, " skinned the lamb." For the Leamington Stakes, which fol- lowed, the telegraph exhibited ten ranners, the absentees from those coloured on the card being Polestar, Janet ( neither of whom wert in the town), Yerona ( lame), and Melissa, the latter of whom had been walking about in the saddling inclosure with blinkers on for some time previously. A satisfactory cause existed for the absence of Eloquence, who slipped a dead foal on the Friday after her return to Newmarketfrom Egham. The betting, which had previously been confined almost entirely to Uzella, became rather brisk after the numbers went up, owing to the spirit with which Mr Sykes— a great " pot"— and Commotion were supported. The race was never in doubt; and Commotion, who was last week selected by " Observer," won so very easily that he was subsequently backed freely at 25 to 1 for the " Sel- linger." Mr Merry's mare was out of her distance, and the old horse finished his racing career by breaking down at the last turn. Three started for the Avon Stakes, and a remarkably fine contest was just won by the favourite by the shortest of heads, but the winner failed to obtain a solitary bid at the hammer. The meeting of Proud Preston Peg, Mainstay, and Polly Ptachum at one time promised as interesting an encounter for the Castle Park Stakes as that between Gemma di Vergy and M. D. last year, but in the absence of the Middlaham filly and Mainstay, and the dark Derby colt Dumfries, the race came to nothing, and after Polly Peachum and Lord Clifden's filly by The Flying Dutchman out of Clarion were weighed for, a division of the forfeits was agreed upon, and the former walked over in consequence of the Committee, on being applied to, refusing to give the added money or even a portion of it. We had occa- sion last year to refer to this parsimonious behaviour, which stands out in sorry contrast to the liberal system adopted at other places of far less pretensions, and is of itself aloaesufficient to account for the paucity ot horses now- a- days sent to Warwick. The Corinthian Stakes— a hollow affair— termi- nated this miserable afternoon's sport, the intervals of which werescarcely enlivened by the efforts of the bookmakers to create speculation upon the St Leger, for which there seemed to be a disposition to back the mare and to bet against Ignoramus. The Cesarewitch, the nearer the time approached for the weights to appear, was a good deal discussed; and a report having got abroad that Melissa was handicapped at 7st 5lb only, she became a great " pot"— as little as 25 to 1 being taken. The " leviathan" laid a good many double event bets of 10,000 to 10 agst naming the winners of Cesarewitch and Cambridgeshire, but the " picks," of course, were no* allowed to transpire. Thursday was a wet miserable day, which had a serious effect upou the attendance, and at the same time altered the condition of the course from good to heavy " going." The sport was plen- tiful, but productive of little speculation, owing to the small- ness of the fields, though at the same time affording some re- markably fine racing. It commenced with the Members' Plate, for which Prior weighed for Eardrop, but in the absence of Mr Stevens, owing to his train being behind time, the mare's number was not telegraphed until some minutes after the betting had commenced, and the other horses had taken their preliosiuary canters. The proceeding of course was freely com- mented upon, and Mr Merry, the Clerk of the Course, took the opinion oi the Stewards as to whether, under the circumstances as Eardrop had not been weighed for until after the time appointed for the race, she ought to be permitted to start ? Admiral Rous declined to take the responsibility of preventing the mare from running, but pointed out the great- irregularity of the proceed- ing, though, at the same time it was clear that no trickery was intended. The Clerk of the Course, thereupon, declined to allow the mare to start, and the bookmakers found themselves in a worse quondary than before, inasmuch as that on the strength of Eardrop's starting, they laid a good deal of extra money at longer odds against Lady Elizabeth, which they were compelled to stand, whilst the Eardrop bets were off ; but Flyaway fortunately came to their rescue and they got out of the mess much better than could be expected. The adoption of some rule to prevent similar occurrences in future is imperatively called for, and we hope the subject will receive the attention of all officials throughout the country. In the Nur- sery Handicap which followed, Yaller Gal's number was not put up until after the others had been exhibited and the betting com- menced, but it was instantly taken down again, inconsequence of the Stewards deciding that French, though under orders from his master to ride the mare, did not go to scale in time. The race produced a floe set- to between JSthon aud the Baroness filly, and resulted in Fordham, on iEthon, repeating his last year's victory over Plumb, ia Mr Merry's colours, by a head, tho latter, as usual, being in too great a hurry to get home. Another quartette went to the post for the Welter Cup, which produced the finest contest of the meeting— as flattering to the amateurs as to the professional performer, to be " nobbed" by whom is no disgrace, even to such old stagers as Captain Little and Mr Scobell. A gamer bit of stuff than the Shaksperian winnerit would be impossible to meet with ; and, in doubting Alembic's capability to give the weight to Hamlet, our cor- respondent " Observer" last week formed as accurate an opinion of the rsspective merits of the pair, as in his selection of Claret, Commotion, and General Bosquet for the County Stakes, tfee former of whom, who appears to have got back to his old form, won easily, beating the largest field of the day, and upsetting another '• pot" wherewith Uzella was entrusted. The running of Babylon, a clever little chesnut son of Belshazzar, in this race exhibited the " stripes" in a more flattering position than Mr Ten Broeck's horses have hitherto attained in this country, and we feel quite sure that in expressiug a hope that his spirited undertaking in bringing over horses from America to take part in the national sport of the mother country may eventually be recompensed by the success it so well deserves, we are echoing the opinions of every English sportsman. Gen- eral Bosquet, we may state, was struck out of the County Stakes at half past ten in the morning; but there was no declaration, correspondents are requested to take notice, re- specting Commotion, Melissa, or any other. It was a great per- formance of Yaller Gal's in the twe- year- old Handicap, and hor success fully recompensed hor owner for his previous disappoint- ment in the Nursery. The field for the Gup dwindled down to three runners only, namely, Fisherman, Oakball, and the Ameri- can horse Lecomte. The chief interest, of course, centered in the latter, who arrived in this country with a high reputation, having obtained as great a celebrity in the States as Boston, Fashion, Lexington, or any other animal. For some years past the rivalry between Lexington and Lecomte has been very great, the former being the recognised champion of Kentucky, and the latter of the southern district. They are of the same age, and met for the first time as three year olds, carrying S61beach, at New Orleans, when Lexington ( the property of Mr Ten Broeck) beat Lecomte in two four miie heats; but a fortnight afterwards Lecomte " turned the tables," by beatinghis former conqueror in two heats of the same distance— time 7min 26sec. The following year, carrying 1001b each, Lexington had his revenge, and again beat Lecomte, who was drawn afterthe first heat, which Lexing- ton won in 7min 23fsec. Twelve days before this, in a match against tine, Lexington performed a " dash" of feur miles in 7min 19fsec, the best time ever known in America; after which Mr Ten Broeck sold him for £ 3,000 for a stallion, and purchased Lecomte for £ 2,000, having, in the interim, however, beaten the latter twice— at Natchez and New Orleans— with Pryor and Arrow for two Purses, b » th of which produced three heats— at the former place of four miles, and at the latter place of three miles each ! Lecomte has never run since, owing to having in his race with Arrow at New Orleans injured one of his joints, which has interfered with his doing much work during the twelve months he has been in England, and to- day presented such a very enlarged appearance that it was almost even betting about his breaking down. This result might have happened if it had been a strong run race, or if the rain had not coose to alter the state of the ground, and under the circumstances Lecomte ( who somewhat reminded us of Harkaway and Peep o' Day Boy) performed much better than even his owner calculated upon. The horse pulled up very lame, but did not break down, and we believe it is Mr Ten Broeck's intention to send him back toAmericaforstud purposes. The race, we had almost forgotten to state, was an exact repetition of the Guineas the day before as regards Fisherman and Oakball, the former, with high odds oa him, winning in a canter. Salmon was " served up hot" to the Ring in the next " course," and it was only by the exhibition of another of his artistic finishes that Aldcroft managed to coun- teract the effects of " crab sauce" which Flora Macdonald almost succeeded in choking the backers of the favourite with. The winner realised 40 guineas to the fund. The Town Plate, with which the meeting terminated, proved an equally fine spe- cimen of handicapping as the Welter Cup, and the success of Alembic by the shortest of heads, in some degree recompensed his noble owner and friends for their disappointment in that race, though at the same time increasing the balance against the fielders, few of whom could have won on the meeting. The Hon Admiral Rous, Sir Lydston Newman, and Sir Robert Peel have accepted the stewardship of the September Meeting, 1858. There was some brisk betting about the two favourites for the St Leger in the course of the afternoon. 300 to 200, and several other transactions, amounting in tho aggregate to nearly a thou- sand pounds, were taken about " Blink," and 1,000 to 500 about Ignoramus, agst whom 2 to 1 was the outside offer. Imp6rieuse was backed for a large stake at 1,000 to 30, and 36 to 1. 4,500 to 150, 3,000 to 100, and 1,500 to 50 being taken in one quarter.

The start was delayed for several minutes, owing to Lady Aintree indulging in an impromptu gallop of nearly a mile. When the flag fell Oitenitza jumped off with a clear lead, followed by Repute, Mountain Nymph, and Lady Aintree to the turn, at which the latter ran out and let up Mag- gie Lauder and Blue Rock, the latter of whom got a very bad start. In the straight the favourite and Repute headed Oite- nitza, but half way ia the distance the favourite stood still, and Oitenitza came again, resumed the lead at the Stand, and won in a canter by a length and a half, a good race for second resulting in favour of Blue Rock by a neck. Repute was fourth, beaten two lengths, Yaller Gal next, and Lady Aintree last. The QUEEN'S PLATE of lOOgs; three year olds 8st 21b, four 9st 41b, five 9st 91b, six and aged 9st lllb; two miles.

Alice and Peeping Tom showed in advance to the upper turn, where the running was taken un by Merlin, closely attended by Alice and Uzella to the* top of the hill, over which the latter took a clear lead of Merlin, Alice going on third, Peeping Tom fourth, and Tiff next, the last three being Commotion, Mr Sykes, and Homily, the latter whipping in several lengths behind the others. They proceeded thus at a good pace until half- way across the meadows, when Merlin disappeared from the front, and Re- demption took second place, Alice, Tiff, and Peeping Tom lying close up with the latter until reaching the last turn, when they were passed by Commotion and Mr Sykes. In a few strides further the old horse broke down badly in the off fore leg, and in the bend of the turn Commotion puliing double became third; here he waited until within a couple of distances of home, when he caught Redemption and Uzella, and quitting them without an effort won hard held by two lengths, Redemption beating Uzella for second money by three lengths, Stork, who passed a lot of the beaten ones inside the distance, finished a bad fourth, and next to him was Homily ; the others were separated by wide intervals, Mr Sykes walking in.

It haviug been decided, however, that Eardrop was not weighed for in time, her number was taken down, and the betting again underwent a change, closing at 6 to 5 on Lady Elizabeth, and 8 to 1 each agst Flyaway and Mary Lovell. Flyaway cut out the work to the turn, where the fa- vourite rushed past her and carried on the running to the dis- tance, where she was pumped out, aud Flyaway, resuming the lead, won easily by half a length, Mary Lovell, who laid off in the early part, finishing a length and a half behind Lady Elizabeth; the Margaret of Anjou colt beaten off.

The favorite showed in advance for the first two hundred yards, when he was headed by Fearful, who re- mained in front to the turn where she ran out, and was seen no more in the race. The Baroness filly and Lucca della Robbia then closed with iEthon, and the three ran nearly abreast to the distance, where the Baroness filly took a lead of about half a length, but was challenged opposite the Stand by the favourite aud beaten after a fine race by a head; three lengths between second and third.

Hamlet made play at the best pace he could muster, followed by Illuminator, Alembic, and Bold Buc- cleugh in the order named until half- way across the meadows when Bold Buccleugh and Alembic changed places. At the T. Y. C. post Illuminator joined the favourite, and the two raced head and head across the meadows and round the turn, when Bold Buecleugh came up, and, when fairly in the straight, took a slight lead of Illuminator, who had his head in advance of Hamlet. They ran thui closely locked almost to the Stand, when Alembic came with a rush, and made a most exciting race with the lot, Hamlet, who struggled with extraordinary gameness, winning by a head, whilst Alembic who caught Bold Buccleugh on the post, made a dead heat with Mm for second, Illuminator finishing half a length only from them.

The running was made by Lambourn, waited upon by Uzella and Alice, and followed by Babvlon and Vandermulin; Homily lying off. There was very little alteration in these positions until entering the Swan Meadow, when Lambourn beat a retreat and left Uzella with the lead, Alice aud Babylon going on in close attendance upon the favourite almost to the distance. Claret then joined the front, had Uzella safe in a few strides, and won easily by a length, Uzella beating Babylon by three lengths. The others were so widely scattered that Mr Clark placed the lot.

BRIDGEWATER AND WEST SOMERSET RACES. Stewards: Col C. J. R. Tynto, M. P., W. W. Kinglake, Esq, M. P. It having been felt by those chiefly interested in promoting the success of these races that the old course, some five miles from the town, was situated at a most inconvenient distance, negotiations were opened with a view to remedying the ob- jection The committee fixed upou a site little more than a mile to the south of the town, approached by a good carriage drive and also by a path across pleasant fields for pedestrians. At present the course is a little rough, and the active industry of many days has not completely triumphed over certain defects which time only can cure. By another season the new earth used to fill up the numerous ruts with which the ground abounded will have become solidified, and the course will then ba well adapted for the purpose. The attendance was very numerous, and there was a good sprinkling of carriage com- pany. During the afternoon the venerable and highly respected Col Tynto arrived on the ground and was loudly cheered. On reaching the Grand Stand he delivered a brief aedress, thanking them for their hearty reception, and assuring them that although no longer able to ride with a Chifney, or to take a fence, or to play singlestick, or indulge actively in those good old English sports which were the delight of his youth and the charm of his more vigorous manhood, yet still his heart was with them, and he gladly gave them encourage- ment. Alluding to the course, he said that perhaps at first it would be found a little rough; but now that they had brought the races near to Ms property, they might depend upon his as- sistance in the removal of every objectionable feature. The gallant colonel was again loudly cheered, and taking the arm of his brother steward, the talented author of Eothen, walked to his carriage. The sports came off as follows :— THURSDAY, SEPT 3.— The BRIDGEWATER STAKES of 5 sovs each, with 40 added; the winner to pay 5 sovs towards ex- penses, and second to save his stake; twice round; about a mile and a half.

A flue race from the distance between Harrie and the Mangosteen filly, resulted in a dead heat.— Second heat: Harrie won easy by a couple of lengths.— Third heat: The Amphion mare went off with the lead, but when half- way round bolted, and just after Harrie stumbled and threw his jockey. Neville had brought the mare round, and gained several lengths before Smith remounted. A second time the maie bolted, and left the race to Harrie, who won by several lengths.

Stewards: A. Bannister, Esq ; J. Malam, Esq ; and W. Kirk, Esq. Judge and Handicapper: Mr Johnson. Clerk of the Course : Mr G. Hartley. Starter : Mr Elliott. These races took place on Thursday and Friday, over Hollym Cars, about a mile from the fashionable watering- place of Withernsea, near Hull. The course, which is about a mile round with a good run- in, has undergone great improvements since last year, but the committee intend to improve it further by making it a mile and a half. The races were well attended, the ground in good order, and the weather delightfully fine. A " welsher" was roughly handled during the afternoon, being completely stripped of his clothes and dipped in a ditch behind the Stand, with about four feet of water, across which he had to swim to the opposite bank— a salutary lesson for him. THURSDAY, SEPT 3.— The TRIAL STAKES of 3 sovs each, with 20 added; the second to save his stake ; one mile; 4 subs. Mr Howsham's b f The Lady of Rohallon, by Joe Lovell, 2 yrs, 5st lllb J.

Deputy Ranger and Keeper of the Match Book: John R. Hunter, Esq. Judge: Mr R. J. Hunter. Starter: Mr M. Clancy. Owing chiefly to the absence of the military— the great camp at the Curragh being now tenanted by a single regiment only— and the gloom generally thrown over society by the late disas- trous intelligence from Iiadia, this meeting was, comparatively speaking, rather thinly attended; although, as will be seen by the list of visitors appended below, nearly all the notables of the Irish Turf were present. The company occupying the Grand Stand at no time on the first day much exceeded three hundred, including some dozen ladies, those who had taken tickets for the inclosure, which was at times rather inconveniently crowded, not caring to pay the double price to enable them to get within or upoa the building itself. This, we would suggest, ought to be remedied by charging a lesser sum than is now paid for the double admission for a single ticket, permitting the holder, as elsewhere, free ingress to both Stand and inclosure. A few refreshing showers some ten days since was of immense advantage to the turf, and the beautiful undulating plain of Kildare never looked to greater advantage. The running ground, which had been well looked after during the summer, was in the best order, the run home being with more " verdure clad" than we ever remember. Shortly after the arrival of the special from the me- tropolis business commenced with the Scurry Stakes, for which eight out of the nine entered were duly telegraphed to start. The betting on it was verv trifling— always the case with the opening race here— the Dancing Master being the only horse backed for money. That the measure had been pretty correct was evident at the conclusion of the race, but he was only able to get second place, meeting with an easy overthrow from Sans Culottes, a most uncertain gentleman, who was not entrusted by his stable with a single sovereign ! For the Kildare Handicap, a field of half a dozen reached the starting post, Fireblast being at first most fancied, but when brought within the inclosure he showed so much temper that he quickly went out of favour. When mounted, however, his resolute jockey very soon brought him to his senses, and, running kindly throughout the race, he won cleverly. The Stewards' Handicap was next con- tested, and " gave the fielders the first turn, the Mildew colt, though unable to get a place for the Scurry, wiuning in a canter, distance being evidently more his forte than a short race. The principal event of the meeting then cam9 upon the tapis— the Anglesey Stakes— for which fourteen two year olds were soon paraded within the inclosure, some few of them good- looking enough, but none of them presenting the grand im- posing appearance of a New Fashion, Wedge, Magpie, Chatterer, M. P., & c. Nothing would go down with the public except The Knight of Malta, whose appearance little warranted the esteem he was held in. Next to him Zaidee, a neat, lengthy, wiry filly, by Bandy out of Wheel; and Encore, a strong, close- built filly, by Bandy out of Ennui, were most in favour ; almost any price being to be had about any of the others, Mr St George's filly, by Annandale, concerning which there was some talk, being scratched immediately after the decision of the Scurry. The start was somehow terribly mismanaged, the first attempt to get them off proving abortive, owing to the impatience of the jockeys, and afterwards by the disinclination of the Knight of Malta to go to the post, and the restiveness of Bundle. At length, at the seventh attempt, they were got off, the favourite getting away two lengths in front, a position he held to within two distances of home, when he suddenly cut it, and the race ended in a match between the two Bandy fillies, Zaidee and Odessa ( who the week previous had been a little off, and it was thought would Eot run), the former winning by a bare head, The Master cf the Rolls third, and Encore ( who, had she been persevered with, could kave been much nearer the wiuner,) fourth. The result of the race was a great feather in the cap of Bandy, who, there can be no doubt, is a first- rate sire, and likely to equal in renown his brother The Baron. The concluding event, the Scurry Corinthians, was only brought to a close at the termina- tion of three heats, Lord Waterford, who seems to have taken a lease of both Corinthians, winning it easily with The Hawk, cleverly piloted by Mr W. Kennedy, the most lucky of Corin- thian riders. The attendance on Wednesday nearly equalled that on the first day, but there was a considerable falling off in the sport. Previous to the start for the first race ( the Conyng- ham Stakes), Lord Waterford purchased The Daisy King for 100 guineas, and though his lordship declared to win with him in preference to his other nomination— the colt by Bandy out of May Girl— the latter started the better favourite of the two. The public, however, fancied nothing except Zanah, out of the King's stable, who cut up wretchedly, the latter winning in a canter, the May Girl colt pulling double behind him. For Her Ma- jesty's " Guineas, the fielders had another turn in the easy defeat of Prizefighter, the race being run at such a wretched pace that Fireblast's fine turn of speed was served to a nicety, and he won almost without an effort. The First Class of the Waterford Stakes for two year olds, worth 500 sovs to the winner, resulted in the favour of The Knight of Malta, who won somewhat cle- verly from the Cotherstone colt out ef Lady Betty, although he ran very shifty at last, and was within an ace of cutting it a stride or two from the chair. The Wellington Stakes was a fine race between the four placed, Dunboyne pulling through pretty cleverly, but not without his sides exhibiting some traces of being " asked," Citron beating Agitation by a length for the se- cond money. The Two Year Old Sweepstakes fell to the ground, Lord Waterford declining to walk over for the solitary 5 sovs forfeit. On Thursday, the weather changed to wet, some heavy rain falling in the morning, but it fortunately cleared off before race time, the afternoon, however, remaining dull and threatening. Some score ladies graced the Grand Stand with their presence, but otherwise the company present scarcely equalled that of the two previous days. The sport commenced with the Two Year Old Selling Stakes, which the favourite Katty Flannagau pulled off pretty cleverly, her sale realising a " pony" for the fund. Notwithstanding his easy defeat on Wednesday, Prizefighter was made the favourite for the Queen's Guineas, and he justified the confidence reposed in him, by winning in a canter. Spiro obtained the second place, and The Prophet the third. The extraordinary incidents con- nected with this race, resulting in its being declared void, are detailed below. The following were amongst the company present:— The Marquis of Waterford, the Marquis of Conjng- ham, ColGambier, CaptBeresford, Capt Nugent, the Marquis of Drogheda, the Earl of Howth, the Earl of Milltown, the Earl of Clonmel, Viscount St Lawrence, Lord Russborough.

After six failures, four of which were occasioned by t he disinclination of The Knight of Malta to face the starter, and two by the fractiousnesss of Bundle, the flag fell to a pretty fair start, The Knight getting away two lengths in advance of Zaidee, her next followers being Odessa, Encore, Frailty, Master of the Rolls, and Sweetcake. The Knight held the lead at such a cracking pace that Sweet, cake and all behind her were soon out of the race, which he appeared to have in hand to the distance, where he suddenly gave up, leaving the lead with Zaidee, who was immediately joined by Odessa and Encore. At the end of the Stand the latter- was beaten, and the race reduced to a match between Zaidee and Odessa, the former just managing to pull through by the shortest of heads, after a most punishing race. The Master of the Rolls, who passed Encore when her jockey ceased to ride her, finished about four lengths from Odessa, Encore beina a length from him, followed next by Frailty and The Knight of Malta, the rest widely scattered.

The running was made alternately by Agitation, Citron, and Walters: owu to within the distance, where Dunboyne, who lay off in the early part of the race, joined them, was soon leading, and at last won cleverly by a length, Agitation finishing not quite that distance from Citron; Walterstown an indifferent fourth, and Newton- le- VVrillows, who broke down on the off fore- leg, beaten off. The SWEEPSTAKES of 10 sovs each, h ft, for two year olds, was off, owing to Lord Waterford, who had three out of the four nominations, declining to walk over, the " fiver" to be got thereby being less than the expenses.

The lot ran so closely clustered to the turn, it was impossible from the Stand to discern which held the lead. After passing the Anglesey Post Prizefighter took up the running, accompanied by The Zouave, who declined at the chains, where Spero took the second place, followed by The Prophet and Prizefighter, winning easily by two lengths; about the same between second and third. On re- turn to scale Snowden objected to Prizefighter for crossing,, which was proved, but he iiaving struck both Prizefighter and his jockey, the stewards of the Turf Club decided that Prize- fighter and Spero were disqualified, and no horse having been placed third, the race falls to the ground, and all bets are off.

TO THE EDITOR OE BELL'S LIFE IN LONDON. SIR : The country meetings which will be held in the various parts of England in the ensuing week, although they are calcu- lated to afford amusement to the inhabitants of the localities in which they will be celebrated, are not calculated either to draw out the " cracks" of the great stables, or divert the attention of the sporting world from the unprecedented public interest which attaches to the enoounter between Blink Bonny and Ignoramus in the approaching St Leger, the winner of which, ia your next impression, I trust to be enabled to supply to your readers. Still, as passing them over might savour of a want of respect to their projectors, I am induced to consider briefly their respective prospects, although, from the notorieties of York, the task of a weekly critic on racing is surrounded with difficulties which hitherto they have never had to encounter. But" a good time," I trust, sir, is yet coming for the public, when the leading patrons of the Turf will rouse from their slumber, and throw over that patient body that modicum of protection to which at least they are fairly entitled. Further allusion to the subject is at present uncalled for, as I am aware it engages the attention of the authorities. From Monday to Friday our national sport will be celebrated in a district which includes a wide circuit of country, seeing that it extends from Cardiff in the west to Thirsk in the north . but as the Welsh meeting has chiefly a local interest, though likely to bring together a good many horses and afford plenty of racing, I shall merely touch upon those " gatherings" at which the sporting public are likely to assist. Lichfield occupies Monday and Tuesday, but though under new management there is little improvement in its list, and I am apprehensive the laxity of energy on the part of the inha- bitants has materially cramped the exertions of the Clerk of the Course. The Staffordshire Stakes has nine acceptances out of an entry of nineteen, The Shadow or South Western looking most like the winner. ".; TheCopelandHandicapmay fall tothe lot of Queen of the South or Master Bagot. The Danebury filly ought to prove the Heroine of the Champagne; and in the Tamworth Plate Eardrop and Lady Hereford strike me as most formidable. Of the Gold Cup, Barbarity or Miss Harkaway may be the recipient; and in the Nursery Stakes T. P. Cook may obtain the " ovation" usually paid to the successful performer. Wednesday and Thursday, the two days suoceeding Lichfield: are devoted to its neighbour— Derby— which meeting, since the reins of management have been in the hands of Mr Marshall, . has materially improved its position in the racing world, and aided by the patronage of the Bretby stable its return lists have assumed a much better appearance. The Tradesmen's Plate has thirteen acceptances, Fisherman heading the list aud General Bosquet concluding it, but the former I am apprehensive has too much weight and the latter would prefer a shorter distance. I shall therefore select Apathy and Moonshine to furnish the winner. The Nursery Handicap has a dozen subscribers, out of which the filly by Surplice, out of Babette or Waterer, ougkt to win. The Innkeepers' Plate ought to be carried off by Lambourn or Blight. For the Chatsworth Stakes a baker's dozen have accepted out of an entry of eighteen, and of course the result must be in' fluenced by previous running ; still I think it Will be difficult to select a more formidable lot than Huntington, Leo, and Claret, the former for choice. Beccles, in Suffolk, unfortunately clashes with the last day of Lichfield and the first day of Derby, but two fair days' racing may nevertheless be calculated upon at this rapidly- improving and well- conducted little meeting, where the addition in the shape of public money ought to secure even much better entries than the programme elsewhere exhibits. In the Beccles Handicap I prefer the chances of Neva and Weatherglass ; and in the Sotterley Park and Nursery Handi. caps, Lady Nelson's weight ought to enable her to accomplish a brace of victories. The result of the Suffolk Cup and Corpo- ration Plate will depend altogether upon the first day's running. Rochester and Chatham in the south, and Thirsk in the north, © ccupy Thursday aud Friday. At the former place the entries embrace so many horses with previous engagements at Lichfield, Derby, Cardiff, & e, that until the return lists of those meetings are before the public, it would be absurd to attempt to foreshadow results. Thirsk has changed its date from the spring, and being fixed for the week previous to Doncaster, may attract many visitors who are desirous of judging for themselves as to the real chance of the St Leger cracks. Five races a day is an average allow- ance for a Yorkshire meeting of this class, and, from the excel- lence of the entries, good sport may be anticipated.— Yours, & c, OBSERVER.

In consequence, therefore, of such cenduct on the part of Captain Mainwaring, we hereby declare that we no longer acknowledge him as manager of our hounds, nor will we again meet him in the hunting field.

MREDITOR: This pack had a clipping run over the cream of Ex- moor with a five year old stag on Monday last, from Lord Love- laee' 3 celebrated covert at Culbone. The hounds were 110 sooner in cover thanTouchstone's chirp proclaimed a find, and the grand chorus pealed in earnest . With his heart in the right place this old stag puts his head for Ore, giving one of Ms hitherto staunchest preservers a call en route, who, now that " the stag must die," is first and foremost in the fray, and was it not for a white hair or two you might mistake him for a boy, so full is he of the ex- citement of the chase. But come along, my friends, for both horses and hounds have been going best pace throughout this tattle. He dwells a moment at the Badgery river, Banker puts things straight, and away up stream for a mile, leaving the brook with a racing scent. It is a very warm time of it, over Pryaway, ditto to Simonsbath, thence turning to Exehead we come into Brendon. Here we are, stag, hounds, and field, " rattle to scour," as old Jack observeth, among the rocks and craigs of Linton. We've been going two hours exactly, and a capital run we've enjoyed. Still the fight is not over, 30 minutes we worry him up and down the Lyn, before we can handle him ; one moment he stands at bay, the next he's made into venison for the farmers of Exmoor.— Yours, & c, WILDBOY, The Devon and Somerset Stag Hounds will meet on Tuesday at the Jewry Kennel, Friday Cloutsham, at 4 past 10.

MR EDITOR: It will no doubt be gratifying to ThameJ anglers generally, but more particularly to those frequenting the localities of Kingston, Hampton Wick, and Teddington, to learn that a memorial was presented in May last, by the Committee of the Thames Angling Preservation Society, to the Lord Mayor, signed by the Mayor and Corporation of Kingston- upon- Thames, and its principal gentry and inhabitants, and also by those of Hampton Wick and Teddiugton, requesting that a preserve for the protection of spawn and fish of the river Thames might be set apart, commencing from the Lower Malt House on the Mid- dlesex side, below Kingston Bridge, to the east end of the lawn belonging to Mr Parks, above Teddington Lock, including the back water, or trolock, and containing in the whole 1,960 yards. On Monday, the 24th ult, his lordship, in his state barge, visited the place ( in consequence of a few of the fishermen of Twicken- ham and Brentford, including the well- known Mr Wm. Kemp of Teddington, having got up an opposition to the memorial in question), for the purpose of judging for himself, and ordered the men on board to explain their objections to the same being granted. At the conclusion kis lordship, who was attended by several of the aldermen, stated he would consider the matter fully and fairly, and communicate his determination through his bailiff, Mr Saunders. This has now been done, and his lord- ship has granted the prayer of the memorial, and the same will be without delay properly staked to prevent netting, and also several boats sunk for the protection of the fish and fry, and so as to insure good pitches for anglers. The trolock, or back water, is unquestionably the best in the river Thames, as breeding ground, and will, no doubt, become a splendid piece of water for all fishing purposes, whether for jack, perch, roach, or trout. The expense necessary to be incurred to do the staking, & c, well, will no doubt be considerable, and it is therefore hoped the aagliEg public will come forward with a liberal spirit, not only to carry out this object, but to afford a generous support to the society for the unabated interest it takes at all times to cater for the angler's amusement.— Yours, & e, HENRY FARNBLL, Hon Sec. RACKETS.— WHITE BEAR, KENNINGTON.— In consequence of the wet weather on Monday last, C. Greatwood's benefit is postponed until next Wednesday and Thursday, when, in addi- tion to other matches, the great match for the silver cruets will take place betweem G. Boucher and E. Greatwood. SUICIDE IN HOLLOWAY GAOL.— Thursday morning George Wardle, aged twenty, who had been a frequent inmate of the metropolitan gaols, and who was undergoing a sentence of three months' imprisonment at Holloway, on a charge of being a rogue and vagabond, committed suicide by precipitating himself from the railings of the top landing in B corridor. He fell upon the stone steps on the basement story. Upon examination bis head was found to be extensively fractured; he lingered about an hour, wiien death put aa end to bis sufferings. PIGEON FLYING.— A gentleman will be at Mr Snowdon'ss High- street, Gateshead, to- morrow ( Monday) night, between eight and ten, prepared to match a bird against Warrior's Bad- ' un or Kearey's Grizzel, from Warkworth, Darlington, or Hex- ham, or any place within 30 miles of Newcastle, or he will match Robt. Robson's Jolly Cooper from North Shields station against Appleby's chequered and white cock, Crow's blue and white cock, Warrior's blue and white cock, or any bird that has not flown for more than £ 5 a side; to come off within one month after the first deposit. The annual pigeon fly from Tilbury Fort to the Man in the Compass came off on the 30th ult. There were 16 subscribers. Mr T.

The Editor of Bell's Life to be stakeholder. A match came off from Brighton on Monday last, with two young birds, bred this year, one belonging to Mr Lewes of Peck- ham, the other to Mr White ( late of Holywell- street, but now of Camberwell), which was won by Mr Lewes in lh 30min 46sec, against Mr White's lh 47min.— Mr White being satisfied that the different weather the two birds had to come through was the sole cause of his being beaten, has made afresh match, which comes off on Monday, the 14th inst. J. Plumpton of Westminster will fly his pigeon against Mr Grimes's of Lambeth, if he will give a minute start from Graves- end, for £ 5 or £ 10 a side, or take a minute of Mr Tupper, of the Greyhound, Webber- row, or will fly them level two cross roads.

BELLEVUE, MANCHESTER.— Last Monday afternoon, two matches at rabbits came off at these grounds, in the presence of a considerable number of spectators. The first was between James Hanoock's Fan, of Milton, and James Smith's Daisy, of Kidsgrove ( both in the county of Stafford), for £ 20 a side, 11 out of 21 courses, 60 yards law ( Daisy giving Fan one dead rabbit). Daisy won the match, having scored 11 to Fan's eight ( including the one given). The next contest was with Mr Ayres's Handy, of Burslem, and Mr Nicholson's Skip, of Pendleton, 11 out of 21 courses, 40 yards law, for£ 10aside. The betting at the commence- ment was 2 to 1 on Skip. Handy was declared the winner, having caught 11 to Skip's five. Some of the decisions of the referee in this match were far from satisfactory, as he either did not under- stand his duty, or wilfully violated the trust reposed in him— we incline to the latter opinion. If Mr G. Harrison of Wigan wishes to match his bitch Fan against Mr H. Young's Silk, he can be accommodated, the best of 21 courses, and will run him at Southport and Aintree; or he will match Silk ( 174 inches) against W. Arnold's dog of Chester- field, or against any 211b dog in Liverpool, and will give or take rabbits for pounds, for not less than £ 10 a side. Money ready any time at Mr H. Young's, Stag's Head, Collin- street, Park- road, Liverpool. Henry Bower of Acton station has matched his dog Old Times against Samuel Mather's ( of Warrington) bitch Fly, for £ 10 a side, 11 courses; to take place to- morrow ( Monday), at Acton station, Cheshire, at three o'clock. A sweepstakes will take place at J. Beddows's, Wilton Arms, Denton, to- morrsw ( Monday), for dogs not exceeding 23lb weight. Entrance 2s 6d each. First prize £ 2, second 10s.

The fol- lowing were the band:— Henry Spittle treble, John Lloyd 2. Wm. Brittam 3, Henry Marlborough 4, Joseph Lloyd 5, Thos! Foster 6, James Foster 7, Joseph Lawton tenor; conductor, Mr Thomas Foster. On Monday and Tuesday last Woolwich was the scene of much ringing, both in the steeple and on the handbells.

Both evenings the company were highly entertained with the Woolwich tune band and the vocal abilities of Messrs Davis, Jones, aud Sergt Garter, R. H. A.

A large attend- ance of members is expected. ROYAL NORTHERN YACHT CLUB. REGATTA AT DUNOON— SECOND DAY. On Saturday the sports were resumed at Dunoon, and the races went off with great eclat. The day was beautiful, and the sun shone forth unclouded, the heat being moderated by a fine breeze from the north- west. In consequence of the fine weather, there was a much larger number of spectators present than on the previous day. The firth opposite Dunoon was literally covered with small craft, whose occupants appeared to take a great interest in the proceedings. The arrangements were pre- cisely the same as on Wednesday, and everything that could pos- sibly conduce to the comfort of the sight- seers afloat was given with that cordiality and welcome which distinguish the secretary, Captain Keane, whom we thank for his kindness and courtesy towards the press. The band of the Queen's Own, under the leadership of MrAgnew, performed well- selected pieces of music. The first yacht race was for the CORINTHIAN CUP, value £ 30, open to all yachts of the Royal Club. This being the great match, there was a good deal of excitement among the sports- men. The yachts started as follows:— YACHT. TONS. OWNEB. H. M. S. NORTH STAB 21 G. Harrison, Esq 12 8 39 ZINGARA 15 James Scott, Esq 12 0 40 CBUSADEB 30 J. Spiers, Esq 12 8 10 STELLA 41 C. S. Coupar, Esq 12 7 16 The course was the same as in the first yacht match on Wed- nesday. Shortly after' starting, when off Wemyss Bay, the North Star carried away her gaff- topsail, which mishap put her to a great disadvantage in the competition. In the first round the yachts came in thus :— H. M. s. I H, it. s. I H. M. s. STELLA 2 14 88 NOBTHSTAB ,. 2 21 57 ZINGABA 2 36 34 CBUSADEB; .... 2 15 7 I I When coming in the first round, off the Holy Loch, the Crusader carried away her gaff- topsail, which accident, however, did not seem to injure her ehance of winning. The yachts came in in the following order :— H. M. S. I H. M. S. I H. M. S. CBUSADER .... 8 21 27 NOBTH STAR .. 3 29 11 ZINGABA 3 57 39 STELLA 3 22 4| | The Crusader, J. Spiers, Esq, thus carried off the Corinthian Cup. Great credit is due to her builder, Mr Fyfe, as also to her crew, for the seamanlike way in which they handled her. A second sailing match was to hare taken place, open to fishing boats not exceeding 10 tons. The prize was £ 5. No boats coming forward, there was no race. Several rowing matches then took place, many of which were keenly contested. The FIEST RACE was for four- oared boats, not exceeding 23 feet, and not less than 4ft 2in beam; first prize £ 4, second £ 2; the course was twice round the Gantocks, and, when coming in, to go to windward of the Commodore:— Attempt ( Paton) 1, Sea Dove ( Gillies) 2. Shortly after starting Sea Dove broke an oar, or otherwise it is believed she would have been the first boat. The SECOND RACE was for four- oared boats, not exceeding 18 feet, and not less than 4 feet beam ; pulled by boys not over sixteen years of age; first prize £ 3, second £ 1; the course was the same as in the previous race :— Swift ( M'Lean, Dunoon) 1, Juvenile ( M'Dougall, Dunoon) 2. This was a well- contested race, and displayed the metal of the respective crews to ad- vantage. The THIRD RACE was open to two- oared boats, not exceeding 16 feet, and not less than 4 feet beam; first prize £ 2, second £ 1:— Petrel ( Turner, Dunoon) 1, Duck ( Jameson, Dunoon) 2. The FOURTH RACE was a punt race, once round the Gantocks and back; prize 15s. The Fairy Queen won this race. After this a punt chase took place, which terminated the day's sports. With regard to Wednesday's sports, the first prize was won, as we surmised, by the Crusader. The winner of the third race has not been determined upon, the yachts not having come in within the regulation time; in fact, it is very probable that there will not be any prize at all. At the conclusion of the races John Houldsworth, Esq, the Vice- Commodore, presented the prizes to the respective win- ners, with a few appropriate and well- timed remarks. The Lulworth was thus the winner of the £ 50 prize; and the Thought carried off the £ 25 prize. The sailing of these two yachts was the theme of general admiration, and from the first they were the favourites. „ , , A PURSE of FIVE SOVEREIGNS for sprit sail boats. First boat to receive £ 4, and the second £ 1. The following sailed-:— Alarm, R. Ayles ; Contest, W. Chant; Shoerwater, W. Haft; Eliza, F. Aylina:; Sea Urchin, W. Thompson, Esq. A capital start was effected, the Shearwater taking the lead^ an j main- taining the precedence throughout the race. The Sea Urchin resigned the contest, and the remainder arrived as follows :— Sheerwater, 2: 50; Eliza, 2: 58 ; Contest, 3: 1: 50 ; Alarm, 3: 2: 20. The S'ncerwater was thus the winner of the first prize, beating the Eliza by only a few minutes, the latter boat ( which carried off the second prize) being in advance of the third and fourth by a considerable distance. This was a very spirited race, and coming off in the neighbourhood of the shore, excited much interest among the uniniated in the mysteries of yachting. SHANKLIN REGATTA. FRIDAY, AUG 28.— The picturesque village of Shanklin on the south east coast of the Isle of Wight, presents a striking contrast to the romantic scenery of the Un- dercliff, or the bleak grand. ur of the cliffs and downs forming the western extremity of the island. When viewed from the summit of the down a scone of majestic beauty presents itself. The promontory of Dunnose, which is 790 feet above the level of the sea, forms the southern boundary of the Bays of Shanklin and Sandown, which extend as far as the eye can reach to Culver Cliff. But what renders the site more attractive is its celebrated Chine. When viewed from below it appears as if the solid cliff had been rent in twain irom top to bottom. The beach at low water affords a delightful walk. Of late years stveral very handsome villas have been erected on the shore, and an esplanade formed, and the village, which is situate on the cliff, has been greatly augmented in the number of beautiful detached villas and lodging houses, which, combined with the salubrity of the site, have gained for the village some importance, and it now ranks as one of the most salubrious retreats on the island. The inhabitants last season got up a regatta, which, although the weather was somewhat blustering, gave much satisfaction, insomuch that t'aey felt it their duty this year to afford a similar entertainment, and Friday week was the day accordiagly appointed. The prizes were certainly not of such an amount as to iaduoe boats from the neighbouring ports to take part in the contest. Nevertheless ample amuse- ment was afforded to the number of spectaters, many of whom came from Ventnor, Bonchurch, and Sandown to enjoy the holiday. The weather was all that could be desired, notwithstanding the wind was from the eastward, and there was but little surf on the beach— in short, everything went off very well, and there is reason to believe that henceforth Shank- lin will have its annual regatta as well as the other places on the sea board. The programme of the day comprised eight matches, viz, two sailing matches, for the sail boats of Ventnor, Shanklin, and Saudown, and six boat races, exclusive of several punt races by lads under 10 years, walking the greasy pole, duck hunts, & c. With this introduction we proceed to narrate the several matches. ^ FIRST RACE, for first- class Sailing Boats. Tae course was from the station- vessel moored off the Chine, thence round a flag- boat off the Head to another boat moored in the bay, distant about one mile and a half and back, twice round. The follow- ing were the entries :— Fairy IW. Bull of Ventnor), Albert ( W. Bull of Ventnor), Yankee ( J. Prouten, of Shankliu), Nettle ( Capt Scott, C. G., of Shanklin). First prize, £ 115s ; second, £ 1; third, 10s ; fourth, 5s. At one a. m. the raoe commenced, and at gunfire the sail boats, which are dandy- rigged, viz, mainsail, foresail, jib, and mizen, with the exception of the Nettle, which carried a gaff topsail, started, the Yankee and Fairy taking the lead and making a neck and neck race of it, until they rounded tha southern mark- boat, having to make a few tacks in shore to weather the same. They were followed closely by Nettle, which appeared to be tha most weatherly boat; the Albert being no where. From thence to the other flag- boat they went away with flowing sheets. The Nettle here set her gaff- topsail, and after rounding the other flag- boat they hauled their wind on the first tack, and were just enabled to lay their course to pass between the station- boat and the shore. The second round of the course was pursued in the same manner, tha boats accomplishing each round in the following order and time. the goal passed him and came in first; Salter entered a protest, stating that Cook had fouled him soon alter the starting, and complained that he had taken his water. The stewards, how- ever, decided in favour of Cook. The pulling for the Ladies' Cup followed. Iu the first heat, Mr Beasley, of Birmingham, and Mr Ratford, sen, of Nottingham, were pitted against each other; but Birmingham was again victorious, Mr Ratford, from some unexplained cause, suddenly giving up in the middle of the course, though up to that time the race was a close one. In the second heat, Mr Sinout ( Birmingham) and Mr Ratford, jun ( Not- tingham) were the rivals, and a close tug ensued between them. Mr Ratford's steady style of pulling, however, enabled him to carry off the palm. After an interval, the deciding heat between Mr Ratford, jun, and Mr Beasley came off; but the latter appeared to have no ehance agaiust the vigour of the former, who was saluted the victor. To this should have succeeded the race of the day, in foar- oared out- riggers, between the Notting- ham and Saxon gentlemen, for the Soho Cup; but after waiting some length of time for the crews to make their appearance, it was understood that an unfortunate dispute had arisen that threatened to spoil the sport. From what we could gather it appeared that the coxswain of the Nottingham boat was an amateur, in common with the rest of the crew, whilst that of the Birmingham was the son of a professional waterman. The name of the latter was set down iu the bills as Master Randolph, whereas it turned out properly to be Randolph Cook. He was objected to on these grounds by the Nottingham Club,| atthe last moment, though nothing had been said about the matter during the trial matches, and after a good deal of unsuccessful mediation the protest of the Nottingham gentlemen was accepted, and the Saxons rowed over the course and claimed the stake. A dingy and scratch race followed. The prizes were awarded at the regatta dinner on Tuesday, at Old Tree Inn, Hockley, to which about thirty gentlemen sat down. NETTLE YANKEE 1ST BOUND, 2D BOUND H.

In turning to windward she proved herself the most weatherly boat, and as she progressed in the second round of her course considerably widened the breach. SECOND RACE, for two- oared punts, rowed by boys under 15 years of age; prizes, 4s, 3s, and losing boats Is 6d each. This race caused a great deal of interest, in consequence of the youthful age of the winners, Moreman and Colenut both being under seven years, and they were rewarded by the company with several pieces of silver in addition to the prize. THIRD RACE, for second- class galleys; prizes, £ 110s, £ 1,10s, and 6s. This was an interesting match, and was wen by the Mary Jane of Ventnor, beating Kate of Shankling, Foam of Sandown, and Rose of Shanklin. FOURTH RACE, for two- oared punts, rowed by boys under 10 years of age; prizes, the same as a second race. Three started, and Moreman and Colenut were again successful, beating Long and Short, and Blue and Matthews, names very familiar to the locality. FIFTH RACE, for sailing fishing- boats; four prizes, £ 1, 12s, 8s, and 5s, losing boats 3s each. The following eight vessels started, and after pursuing their rounds in the same manner as the first match, came in as follows:— Sarah ( T. Wheeler of Ventnor) 1, Saucy Caroline ( J. Kingswell of Luccomb) 2, Myrtle ( T. Hunt, Ventnor) 3, Mudlark, Fear Nothing, Skylark, Princess R^> yal severally of Ventnor), and the Wave Queen ( of Sandown), also started, but were not timed. SIXTH RACE, for two oared dingeys. Won by Eva ( W. Cole- nut), beating Dart ( W. Rayner), and Sieve ( W. Tolan), severally belonging to Shanklin. This was a weil- contested match. SEVENTH RACE, for four- oared boats rowed by bojs without rudders, first prize 30s, second 15s, third 10s, losing boat 6s. Came in in the following order:— Arrow ( R. Colenutt) 1, Alma ( A. Lale) 2, Wave ( W. Colenut) 3, Flying Cloud ( A. Simmonds) 4. A very exciting duck hunt followed, which was won by the duck. Several minor amusements followed, and several duckings took place when walking a greasy pole for a brace of ducks, which were won by Raishley, the mail- man. In the evening there was a good display of fireworks, chiefly of rockets, blue lights, and Roman candles, which had a pleasing effect on the foliage in the Chine, and which wound up the day's amusements. THE T0RBAY ROYAL REGATTA. Stewards: George Holland Ackers, Esq, Sir John Bayley, Bart, Henry L. Brown, Esq, Capt Bouverie, R. N., Sir Walter P. Carew, Bart, Thomas ( Jhamberlayne, Esq, R. Stewart Dykes, Esq, J. Goodson, Esq, Sir H. Bold Hoghton, Bart, Joseph Weld, Esq. FRIDAY, AUG, 28.— The Torbay Regatta has long enjoyed a very high reputation, and rarely fail3 in showing capital sport to vast crowds of people. The entries this year were good, and there being a stiffiih breeze from E. S. E., the scene afloat was of a very exciting character. The sports commenced with— A PURSE of sovs for the Torquay fishing boats; twice round. The entries were :— Anne, W. Milas ; Lucy Neale, J. Gosling ; Why- not, T. Harley ; Musical Box, Edwin Eveley ; Lion, Robert Harley ; Deceiver, Edward Harley ; Venus, James Leat. The start took place at 1: 30, Deceiver having a decided lead. The first round they came in as follows :— Musical Box, 1: 56: 10 ; Lion, 1: 59: 2 ; Deceiver, 1: 59: 28 ; Anne, 2: 19: 22 ; Why- not, 2: 26 ; Venus, 2: 44: 33 ; Lucy, 3: 5: 58. Second round : Mu- sical Box, 4: 31: 27 ; Lion, 4: 35: 35. Of the rest some were a long way behind, and one or two hauled off. The LADIES' PURSE, for pleasure yachts belonging to Torbay. The entries were— Mystery, Mr Samuel Thomas ; Gannett, Mr Thos. Pearson ; Edith, Mr Turner; Belladonna. Twice round. The start took place at 12: 10. The first round Gannett led about five minutes, followed by Belladonna and Mystery, who rounded the mark- boat together; but the Mystery being to windward, took the lead of her companion. The race eventually was between Gannett and Mystery, and terminated as follows: lST BOUND. 2D BOUND. BELLADONNA .1 46* 10.... 8 32 50 EDITH 1 47 56.... 3 34 35 WEYMOUTH ROYAL REGATTA. These nautical sports commenced on Thursday last, and it" was generally admitted that never since the palmy days of the good old King George the Third, when Weymouth was such a' favourable resort of royalty, has the event been inaugurated under more favourable circumstances, if we except the fact that the weather was at first a little unpromising. However, as the day wore on the rain ceased, and everything proceeded merrily. The' liberal prizes offered by the committee had brought together a' goodly number of first- class yachts, and during the evening, the beautiful bay was studded with craft of almost every des- r cription, presenting a most pleasing spectacle. The opening of the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth railway since last regatta, also told favourably with respect to the number of spec- tators; and in consequence of immense trains from differ- ent parts having emptied large numbers of excursionists into the town during the week, the Esplaoade was never before crowded to such an extent with persons anxious to witness the sport. A variety of amusements, such as rowing matches, donkey racing, & c, were specially provided for their entertainment. There had been a favourable fre& h breeze during the early part of the day, but unfortunately it gradually subsided, and consequently the yachting was scarcely so spirited as it otherwise might have been. However, notwithstanding this slight drawback the different events proved highly interest ing. The following are the particulars of the principal items:— A PURSE of £ 50, for yaohts of any port or club not exceeding 120 tons; three to start, or no race; distance four times round marks. Time race, 30 seconds a ton. The follow- ing entries were made :— YACHT, TONS. OWNEB. WIDFIBE 56 . J. T. Turner, Bsq MARAQUITA. . 125.. T. B. Carew, Esq ( drawn) LSI BOUND. 2D BOUND. H. M. S. H. M.

The second round, when off the pier, Glance and Thought kept alongside each other for some distance. On near- ing the western mark- boat Thought got away from her com- panions, and, after rounding, was a clear three lengths ahead. The following is the order of the running :— LST BOUND. 2D ROUND.

G00LE ANNUAL REGATTA. This regatta took place on Monday and Tuesday last, and was exceedingly well attended. The weather on the first day opened gloomily enough, but, as the time for the first race approached, it became brighter, and a fresh breeze sprang up from the east. Captain Hawksworth acted as judge and Mr Pearson as starter. The races commenced with , „ I The AIRE and CALDER PRIZE, confined to Lancashire and Yorkshire, a sailing match for yachts under 10 tons, £ 21; second to save entrance fee. FBOLIC, Mr Robinson, Hull.... 11 FAIBY, Mr Pilkington, Goole .. 0 FLIBT, Mr Pickering, Goole.... 2 BRUNETTE, Mr Appleby, Bar- ABEOW, Mr Wood, York 3 | ton, Hull 0 PEABL, Mr Chambers, jun, Goole 4 VIVID, Mr Speak, Hessell, Hull 0 CYGNET, Capt Cator, R. N., Hull 5| The course was from a boat moored at Saltmarshe, passing on the west side of a boat moored off the Ship Lock, up the . Ouse, round a boat off Howden Dyke, leaving the boat on the port side, and back to the Middle Lock, Goole; passing; agdim on the west side of the boat opposite the Ship Lock. On arriving at Saltuiarshe after the time fixed upon ( which was in a great mea- sure owing to the calm) the yachts were arranged alongside each other, and started iu nice order, a fresh breeze blowing up the river just at the time. For some time Fairy took the lead, followed closely by Pearl for some distance ; Cygnet, Arrow, and Frolic being well up. Occasionally getting in the current the Pearl took the lead for the next run, and the wind freshening the whole sped well on towards the Ship Lock. It afterwards slacked, and Fairy consequently fell back. Cygnet caught a nice breeze, but the whole Became becalmed at the turn. Oppo- site the pier they passed in beautiful order, and so oil to Dow- den Dyke, where the wind being dead agaiust them, and the cur- rent likewise, they tacued round, but it was impossible to get off. The whole lot came round many times, but as often as they came up the wind caught them, and no headway could be made. For two hours at least this continued, when Frolic, by splendid management, got in a right position, and came m first, winning by a considerable distance. Several minutes elapsed between second and third, and the others also. SAILING MATCH for Open Boats, confined to Yorkshire and Lincolnshire; no decks allowed; first prize £ 7 7s, second to save entrance fee. EMPBESS, Mr Wilde, Hull 1 NOBEOLK, Mr Leetliam, Goole .... BEESWING, Mr Dent, Hull 2 NAUTILUS, Mr Driffield, Hull.... 6 HENBIETTA, Mr Milner, Hull 8 1 HELEN, Mr Tolan, Goole 7 ISABELLA, Mr Johnson, Hull 41 This race was well contested, the whole sailiug well up the river as far as Howden Dyke, where with the first lot they failed for a considerable time to make headway against the cur- rent. Shortly after the first lot had got off, the Empress, from her favourable position, got off and maintained the lead thy whole of the way in, but not without many hard attempts to keep from being driven back ; Beeswing came in a bad second, and Henrietta a still worse third. A PRIZE for Four- oared Wager Boats, £ 10 10s ; open race. SHAKSPEABE, Wood, Manchester 11 QUEEN OE IBWBLL, Lee, Man- HEATHEB BELL, Wliittield, Leeds 2| Chester The length of this race was from a boat moored at the lower part oi Goole Reach, passing Goole on the west side of a boat moored off the Ship Lock, round one moored at the top of Sand Hall Reach, leaving the boat on the port side, and back to the Middle Lock. This was a well- contested race up as far as the Sand Hall Reach, turning the boat at which point Shak- speare took the lead ; three boat lengths between second and third. A SCULLERS RACE for Wager Boats ; prize, £ 7 7s; same course as last race. Elizabeth, F. J. Barratt, Manchester, 1; Shakspeare, Wood, Manchester, 2 ; Light Dragoon, Barratt, Manc& ester, 3 ; Heather Bell, Whitfield, Leeds, 4. Good race ; the winner was never headed the whole of the distance. JOLLX BOAT RACE, for £ 5 5s; distance from a boat moored at the lower part of Goole Reach, up as far as Sand Hall Reach, and back to the Lock. Ella 1, The Johu and Anne 2. This was a very well- contested race for the whole distance, Ella main- taining the lead the whole way, followed closely by the John and Anne, who, ho wever, did not head her, though great efforts were made to do so. TUESDAY.— The programme presented for Tuesday contained quite as numerous a list of prizes as were offered on Monday, and owing to the favourableness of the weather they possessed more attraction than those of the preceding day. The wind was N. W., or nearly at a contrary point to that of Monday. About half- past three clock several of the yachts were towed down to Saltmarshe, and others proceeded by themselves to start for The LONDESBOROUGH PLATE of £ 10 10s, for yachts under 10 tons; from Saltmarshe, passing the Ship Lock, Goole, up to Howden Dyke, and back to the Middle Lock.

When in front of Swiuefl. et JFrolic, Arrow, Cygnet, and Bru- nette were at the head, and in passing Goole the relative dis- tance of the whole had so changed their positions that Frolic was three minutes before the Arrow, six before Cygnet, 10 before Brunette, 12 before Flirt, 15 before Pearl, and about 20 before Fairy and Vivid. Nearly in this order did they proceed up the river, and at the buoy at Howden Dyke the turn was made in a splendid manner by two or three of the boats. Frolic still led, with the Arrow a long way in the rear, but gra- dually approaching. When about a quarter of a mile from home the Frolic grounded, haviug approached too near the shore to tack across for the centre of the Channel. The Arrow, which was then only a length behind, took the lead and maintained it with- out difficulty; Frolic, haviug got off, came in second, two yards separating the two; Cygnet third. SAILING MATCH for yachts, for £ 5 5s, confined to Yorkshire and Lincolnshire, and to yachts under 10 tons.— Ellen, Mr Tolau, 1; Empress, Capt Collier, 2 ; Norfolk, Lsetham, 3 ; Hen rietta, Milner ( gave up) 0. This race was a protracted one, and for some time Ellen led the van, passing Goole a good length in advance, Empress next, and Henrietta third. Howden Djke was rounded in fine style, aud soon after the Henrietta broke her sprit, and so became disabled from contesting. Empress then took up the lead, which she kept. LADIES' PURSE ROWING MATCH, from the lower part of Goole Reach to Sand Hall Reach and back to the Ship Lock.— Atalanta ( Smith), Goole, 1; Harlequin ( Ridgley), Doncaster, 2 ; Robin Hood ( Greenfield), Goole, 3. For this race there was a strong contest, and for some time it was doubtful whether Ata- lanta or Harlequin would take the lead. On rounding the boat moored at Sana Hall Reach the former gained a little headway, which with slight variations she maintained, and won by two lengths ; two hundred yards between second and third. FOUR- OARED WAGER BOATS AND COXSWAIN, for £ 8 8s; open race, course same as last.— Shakspeare ( Wood), Manchester, 1; Heather Bell ( Wood), Manchester, 2; Queen of Irwell ( Lee), Manchester, 3. Well together when first off, but Queen of lrwell fell behind iu returning, the distance between it and Heather Bell being a hundred yards; about two lengths between first and second. STERN SCULLING MATCH for three prizes of £ 1, 7s 6d, and 2s 6d.— George Wharam 1, C. Watkinson 2, T. Fletcher 3. A scullers race for £ 5 5s was won by Barrett of Manchester, and this, with minor sports, terminated the regatta. Ward, R. N., and Mr Peake, the inventor of the lifeboat of the institutioia, were deputed to visit the Boulogne Lifeboat station accordingly. The proceedings then closed. THAMES SUBSCRIPTION CLUB. The next monthly meeting of the members of this club will be held at the Cremorne Hotel, Chelsea, to- morrow ( Monday) evening, when the following gentlemen will be balloted for :— Algernon Warner, Esq, 7, Golden- square ; Richard Price, Esq, 3, King William- street, City; Charles Maclean, Esq, 29, Mincing- lane ; Frederick Warn9r, Esq, Bachelor's Lodge, Teddington ; John Keen, Esq, Bachelor's Ledge, Teddington ; Frederick P. Chappell, Esq, Norbiton Park, Kingston- on- Thames. SCULLERS RACE BETWEEN FINNIS AND WHITE. This race, for £ 25 a side, came off from Putney to Mortlake, on Thursday last. Both men are well known, and promise to be very good scullers. Fiunis is a trifle older than White, and much stronger, and that, with condition, undoubtedly won the race. He had taken up his quarters at the almost universally successful training- ground, Mr Salter's, the Feathers, Wands- worth, to whom great credit is due for the manner in which he was brought to the starting- post. Alfred Ralph of Waudsworth went up with him in the cutter, and G. Driver of Wandsworth piloted White. Besides winning the Coat and Badge in 1854, James Finnis, who hails from Wapping, won Prince Albert's Coat and Badge at the Tower, in the same year, and also won the Tower boat; rowed an exceedingly good race with his pre- sent opponent, who beat him in 1855; obtained an easy victory over G. Wade of Ratcliff in July of the present year, aad has rowed very well on more than one occasion in the Royal Thames National Regatta. His umpire was T. Day of Wandsworth, who is to row against Drouett of Chelsea to- morrow ( Monday). Henry White of Mill Stairs, Bermondsey, now iu business at Lambeth, seems to have won all his races almost at once; be- sides wiming Doggett's Coat and Badge in 1855, he won the Royal Thames National Regatta Coat at Putney, in the same year; in the same regatta he rowed against Thomas Cannon, whom he defeated; in November, 185- 5, he defeated his pre- sent opponent, after an exciting race ; rowed Cannon again in December, 1855, aud again beat him. In Dx: ember, 1856, gave Thomas Pocock of Cherry Garden- stairs six lengths, and lost the race by a little more; aud rowed in the Lambeth crew, who were victorious over some others at Antwerp this year. Through some strange notion he never goes anywhere to train, and to that his defeat on this occasion may be mainly at- tributed, as he was only under his brother Tom ( winner of Deg- gett's Coat and Badge this year) at home. Alexander Grace, manager of Eermondsey Regatta, was his umpire. Mr Henry Thomas of Brentford acted as referee. The Venus, under the direction of Captain Sharpiiu, accompanied the men, and . fforded the spectators an excellent opportunity of witnessing the race. Shortly before two o'clock the men appeared at their stations; Fiunis in a guernsey, and White in buff, and they got off in a desperate shower of rain, which lasted nearly the whole distance. At the first dash of the sculls the Bermondsey man, who had won the toss, dashed off with the lead, but so rapidly did Finnis come up at Finch's that it was thought by maay the race was over. They then rowed scull and scull for about a furlong with determined pluck and desperate energy. White then put on a spurt, and by dint of very hard pulling in the next quarter of a mile, had gradually drawn his boat within a yard of being clear. Finnis then came up level again, and they were abreast to near the Crab Tree, where White drew a yard ahead, which he held almost to the point above the Crab Tree ; he then seemed to flag;. Finnis, by several spurts, drew his boat ahead till he was just clear, and with not afoot between them they rowed through the Suspension Bridge. At the Doves White gradually overlapped him again, aud at Chiswick Pier, for the third time, they were level. Finnis drew ahead again, but was not quite clear till above the Eyot; he then got a clear length in advance, with which lead he rowed to the middle of Corney Reach, where White again perilled his position, but this was the Bermondsey man's last spurt. At the upper end of the Reach Finnis was two lengths ahead, which he had increased to four lengths at Barnes Bridge, and reached the Ship about 80 yards ahead, both men being loudly cheered. Betting had been on the winner. The winner can have the money by calling at our office on Thursday, at 12, TEE KING. EIGHTS TO COME. SEPT 22.— Ben Caunt and NatLangham—£ 200 a side, London.

Rowing matches, punt chases, and other sports, terminated the day's amusements. REGATTA AT SOHO POOL, BIRMINGHAM. A regatta took place on this piece of water, on Monday last, got up by the members of the Saxon Rowing Club, for the benefit of the Blue Coat School. With a view to inducing competition on the part of amateur crews and rowers from other places, three silver cups, of the respective value of £ 15, £ 710s, and £ 5, besides silver medals and sums of money, were offered as prizes. The races were eligible to sailing boats, wager boats of the old build, outriggers, and dingies, so that the field was a tolerably open one. Some capital entries for the different stakes were made, and included a well- trained crew from the Nottingham Trent Rowing Club, besides rowerB from London and Oxford, the Saxon Club of course putting in its claims. In the next place the patronage of the Mayor ( J. Ratcliff, Esq) was secured, and under the circumstances the attendance ought to have been an exceedingly large one. Such, however, was not the case, during the afternoon at all events, not more than two thousand being present, although the weather was so beautifully fiae. The sports commenced about three o'clock with a sailing match, for which one of the silver cups was offered. There were four entries, the Prince, the John o' Gaunt, the Secret, and the Fairy, all belonging to gentlemen practising on thepool. Unfortunately there was scarcely enough wind stirring to fill a sail, but as there was a good breadth of the latter spread out the heats were accomplished in due time, but without much excitement. The race, in fact, was decided almost as soon as com- menced, for the Fairy ( Mr Knight) speedily took the'lead, distanced the Secret, which at first followed closely in her wake, and kept it throughout, coming in an easy winner, i The next match was for £ 5, in old- fashioned wager boats, be- H.

Reward's Prize of £ 5, with £ 1 for the YACHT MEASUREMENT. MR EDITOR : Some years back you were good enough to pub- lish a few words of mine on the absurdity of making the keel of a boat the index of her real length. This ( thanks to the in- fluence of your columns) is now pretty well seen by many clubs, and taken into consideration, and various methods of measure- ment have sprung therefrom ; but the yachting world still want your assistance ia forwarding some general system, which will embrace all clubs and regulate all regattas. Now, sir, with your leave, I would venture to suggest that we have the system ready to our hands; aud as it is that which decides the tonnage of all vessels, small and great, of the present day, one cannot but presume it is adapted to the necessities of the time, and that if yachts are fostered for the purpose of forwarding the model- ling of craft, especially small fry, it is desirable they should be measured in the same way as the vessels they would improve. The system I would bring forward is explained in the Merchant Shipping Act of our present gracious Majesty ( 1854). This gives the relative size of a boat, and leaves the shape optional to the experimentalist, who may, under it, shape his box as he likes, unfettered by any remains of the mysterious rites of King William's Act, and feeling assured that the relative size of his vessel, as regards others, will be truly expressed. Why, when by this act we can really approximate very closely to the relative size of a craft, and which can be applied by any competent custom house officer, we should dig up a musty old one, and add to it according to our various fancies, so that if you sail in three matches your tonnage will probably vary as often, I know not, especially when we have before us a system which is the law of the land, which is universally applied to all vessels ( but yachts), and which approximates much nearer to the relative size of craft than any other. The ensuing winter will afford time to yachtsmen for cool reflection, and this, I trust, may induce them to take the simple step of regulating all future measure- ments according to the law of the land.— Yours, & c, Lynn, Norfolk, Aug, 1857.

LULWOBIH..,,,, 7 28 80 | THOTOHI 8 % 9 second boat, there were three cempetitors, Speed ( Nottingham), Cook ( Oxford), and Salter ( Wandsworth), The start was capital, Salter taking the lead; in about a dozen strokes afterwards, he was, however, very hardly pressed by Cook, who when near PRESERVATION OF LIFE FROM SHIPWRECK. On Thursday a meeting of the Royal National Lifeboat Insti- tution was held at its house, John- street, Adelphi, Capt Lam- bert Perrott in the chair. The minutes of the previous meeting having been read, the silver medal and £ 2 were voted respec- tively to William Wedge and James Turpiu, commission boat- men of the Coast Guard, at Salcombe, Devon, and to David Thomas Warder, boatman, in acknowledgment of their gallant conduct in putting off in a small boat, and in a heavy sea, at the imminent risk of their lives, and rescuing two out of three men, who were capsized from their fishing- boat on Bantham Bar, on the night of the 27th ult; a reward of £ 6 was also granted to three Coast Guardsmen, for putting off in a small boat and rescuing, at the risk of their lives, four out of five persons, who had been, in a heavy sea, capsized from their boat off Port Rush, on the coast of Antrim, 011 the 22d July. After they were rescued, the little boat again put off, and succeeded in bringing in the capsized boat. A reward of £ 6 was likewise granted to six fishermen for rescuing, at the peril of their lives, two out of four persons who had been capsized during a sudden and heavy squall of wind from their boat, off Hanmaroe, Shetland, a few weeks since. It appeared that while the boat was fishing the wind suddenly rose to a strong gale, accompanied by a sudden squall off the land, which capsized the boat before her crew of four men were able to take in her sails. They were plunged into the sea, two of them were happily saved by clinging to their boat, although twice washed from it; two others sank to rise no more. Much risk was incurred in the rescue of the two men, inasmuch as they could only be approached after the sea broke, and then quickly snatched from their very dangerous position. The loss of life among the Shetland fishermen this year has been unusually great. No doubt many of these accidents, which have caused the greatest misery among the families of these poor but deserving men, have been caused from the defective construction of their fishing- boats, and the unskilful manner in which, we fear, they are too frequently handled in the hour of peril. Fishermen's boats are often of the most primitive construction, and are probably now the same in character as they were one or two hundred years ago. Capt Ward, R. N., the inspector of lifeboats to the institution, read a report of his recent visit of inspection Of the lifeboats of the society, on the Lancashire, and on the north and south coast of Wales. On these occasions lie is in the habit of taking the lifeboats afloat, in order to thoroughly examine them, and test their capacity for service in the hour of need. The boats are also regularly exercised once a quarter throughout the year. He reported highly of the quali- ties of the new class of lifeboat of the institution, and suggested that some of its older boats, built twenty or thirty years ago, should be replaced. A communication was read from the Bou- logne Shipwreck and Humane Society, in the management of which some of the English residents take an active part, inviting the inspector of lifeboats to visit their establishment, Capt GRAVE SEND AMATEURS.— On Friday, August 2S, this club rowed its maiden match— and, according to their style of rowing, it promises to be a first- rate amateur company— consisting of three four- oared galleys, the colours being green, white, and blue. The course was from Northfleet Creek to the Royal, moored off the Custom House. The weather was very tine, though rather a stiff breeze was blowing from the eastward. The galleys being in perfect readiness the signal was given, and a capital start was effected, Blue taking the lead, leaving White in the rear; Green then went a head, closely followed by White, and when off Northfleet Dockyard Wrhite was second boat, Blue being last; a very capital race then followed between Green and White, Green being a length a head. On neariug the town pier White drew half a boat's length closer, but could not manage in the short distance left to make more way. They accordingly went in in the following order:— Green, Teniell, S - arle, , W. Johnston ( stroke), J. Busby ( coxswain); white, Hickmott, Moss, Cavell, Bowser ( stroke), H. Warner ( coxswain); blue, Newman, A. Johnston, Enfield, F. Deane ( stroke), E. Warner ( coxswain). The distance ( two miles aud a half) occupied seven minutes and a half. The sport concluded with a supper at the Rosher- ville Hotel. SERPENTINE SUBSCRIPTION CUP* MATCH.— A match among models came off on Tuesday afternoon, on the Serpentine River, Hyde Park, and attracted a large number of spectators. The race was for a handsome silver cup, got up by subscription, by Mr Kerridge, of the Wilton Arms, Kinnerton- street, and was in four heats, the following being the results:— First heat: Light- ning, lugger, Mr J. Butt, 1; Fenella, schooner, Mr Thomas, 0; Louisa, cutter, Mr Lockyer, 0. Lightning had the lead all the way, and won by ten yards; Fenella was too near the wind, aud Louisa out of bounds,— Second heat: Extravaganza, lugger, Mr E. Taylor, 1; Anne, lugger, Mr G. Kerridge, 0; Three Williams, lugger, Messrs Turner and Temple, 0. It was a capital race with the Extravaganza and Three Williams all the way, and only won by six jards. The Anne, a long way astern, was too close to the wind.— Third, or losers' Leat: Three Williams, 1; Fenella, 0; Anne, 0; Louisa, 0. Won easily; all the others went out of bounds. Feuella aud Anne had a good race all the way.— Grand heat: Lightning, 1; Three Wiiliairs, 0 ; Extravaganza, 0. The winner had the lead throughout, but did not win by Bsore than six yards, which distance the Three Williams was astern all the way. The Extravaganza was too near the wind. MANCET AND POWELL.— Wm. Manceyoflsleworth and Chas. Powell of Strand- on- the- Greeu rowed a scullers race on Thurs- day, for £ 10 a side, from Hammersmith Bridge to Kew Bridge. Little is known of the men, except that a few years ago Mancey rowed a good race with Rolls, and was expected to do a great deal. The men rowed very well, and made a tolerably good race of it. Mancey had trained at F. Styles's, Isleworth, and Powell at Mr Williams's, Kew, Wra, Wapshot " coached" Mancey, George Williams did ditto for Powell; and the well- known Dick Messum of Richmond was umpire. It was a very even start, and the men were together for two hundred yards, when Powell drew two lengths ahead, and maintained his lead for nearly a mile. Mancey then came up ; they were then level, and rowed scull and scull for a quarter of a mile, when Mancey shot ahead at Barnes, and won by two or three lengths. The betting was on Mancey. DAY AND DROUETT.— For this scullers race we have received a further sum of £ 5 a side, and ths final deposit of £ 7 10s a side was due at Mr Salter's, Feathers Tavern, 011 Saturday ( yesterday). The raoe is to take place to- morrow ( Monday), from Putney to Barnes Railway Bridge, one hour before high water. Umpires and referee to be chosen on the day of the race. Those who wish to obtain a good view, will do well to remember that the Citizen L, Captain Johnson, will leave London Bridge at two p. m. WEST LONDON ROWING CLUB.— A scullers race took place 011 Saturday, Aug 29, between Messrs T. M. Morriss and E. G. Hartley, both members of this club, the course being from Putney Aqueduct to Hammersmith Suspension Bridge. Hart- ley took the lead, but was gradually passed by his opponent, who eventually proved the winner, despite of Hartley's plucky rowing. Both competitors were showu up by crews from their club, and the race was well attended on the part of several other clubs. SCULLING RACES AT CAMBRIDGE.— On Thursday, Aug 27, sculling races for cups took place amongst the members of Ema- nuel College, resident during the long vacation. Although there were 18 subscribers, only nine gentlemen appeared at their posts, viz, Messrs Clayton, Gilbert, Garnhill, Goodacre, Skip- worth, Lee, Brownlow, Roberts, and Gregory. After three bumping races, which were well contested, Messrs Lee and Skipworth were left to row a time race, which ended in favour of the latter. HALE' s CREW V MAY'S CREW.— For this four- oared race we have received the whole of the stakes, viz, £ 12 on the part of Hales, and £ 10 on that of May. The race was to be rowed from Putney to Mortlake, one hour before high water, Sept 5. Um- pires and referee to be chosen on the day. An extra 10s was placed in the hands of Wm. Cole, together with the last deposit but one, on the part of Hale. We suppose this to have refer- ence to the " third prize" mentioned in the articles, which are not very clearly worded, HARRY CLASPER says lie will row M. Taylor's crew ( the same that rowed at Lancaster), but yot for less than £ 100 a side, which he thinks is little enough for four men to train for. The match to be from the High Level Bridge to Scotswood, in seven or eight weeks, Taylor receiving £ 10 expenses; or Cl& sper will row them any three or four mile course in England. If this should suit a deposit of £ 20 will be immediately forwarded to Bell's Life, and the match will proceed. HENRY AULT of Manchester is prepared to row Samuel Wood a scullers race, for from £ 30 to £ 50 a side, over the Manchester and Salford Regatta course; or he will allow him two boat lengths at the coming in post; to row from High Level to Scots- wood Bridge, Newcastle.

CHAMBERS AND RALPH.— For this scullers race we have received a further £ 10 a side, and the next deposit of £ 20 a side will be due Sept 10. SANDOWN REGATTA.— This regatta was advertised to come off on Thursday, but, owing to the inclemency of the weather, the committee postponed it until to- morrow ( Mouday). FIGHT BETWEEN BLACK JOE AND NEWTON, FOR £ 50.— This fight should have come off on Tuesday last. On Monday evening the men went to scale at George Bradbury's, the Fishmongers' Arms, Hanley, when both were somewhat under the stipulated weight, 9st. The place of meeting was then fixed, and the neighbourhood of Woore was chosen, the men to be iu the ring between twelve and two. They met at the time and place ap- pointed, and a ring was soon formed, but, ere the men could commence operations, a body of police made their unwelcome appearance. Several moves were made, but the police were on the alert, and it soon bee * me evident that no fight could come off that day. After much altercation it was arranged that the men should meet at Flash Bar, betweeu six and seven o'clock on the following ( Wednesday) morning, when it was hoped that the early hour appointed would prevent the interference of the police. At seven o'clock on Wednesday morning the men met at Flash Bar, but, to their chagrin, found the placa already occupied by a party of the Staf- fordshire constabulary. A move into the adjacent county of Derby thus became necessary, aud then a ring was formed on a well- known spot near the source of the Dove, and the scene of many gallant encounters. Considerable deiay occurred in the choice of a referee, but, this difficulty got over, the men were brought to the scratch— Black Joe attended by Tim Bramman and another, and Newton by Charley Flaxton and Philip Harrison. It is perfectly superfluous to attempt to give any account of the fight— if fight it can ba called. Both men were in pretty good condition, and with their respective friends and backers appeared equally confident. Through the early hour appointed and the distance from therendezvous of the preceding night, the attendance, as might be expected, was ex- tremely small, but the Manchester party preponderated very much in numbers, as also iu their most vociferous and not very polite declamation in support of their protege, Black Joe. In the third round a claim was made by Newton's friends on the ground of Black Joe going d* wn without a blow. This was over- ruled by the referee, but he, however, cautioned Black Joe against a repetition of such tactics. In the fifth round a unani- mous claim of foul was made by Newton's supporters that his an- t- dgouist struck him when down. The referee was appealed to, who at once declared the blow foul; and thus unsatisfactorily, after fighting but some seven or eight minutes, the affair was at an end. A scene ensued which beggars description. A rush was instantly made by the partisans of Black Joe upon Newton ( who had been withdrawn from the ring), his supporters, aud the referee, and an attempt was made to drag Newton back into the ring, and sticks were in an instant most freely used by the Manchester party, Newton having at the very commencement of the melee received a tremendous blow upon the wrist from a bludgeon, which completely disabled his right arm. Newton and his seconds were shortly extricated by their friends, and the party commenced a retreat, closely pressed by their assailants, who attacked them with the greatest fury. After a gallant but un- availing stand of a few minutes, Newton, with his seconds, backers, and immediate friends, were compelled to fly, and suc- ceeded iu gaining their conveyances, which had been left a short distance from the scene of action, and thus escaped from the fury of their assailants. The referee was not so fortunate, as after the flight of Newton and his party, he would certaiuly have been murdered had not two policemen opportunely arrived on the scene of action. The police behaved with the utmost for- bearance and resolution under the most trying circumstances, and are entitled to great praise. As may be supposed, we have received many letters 011 the subject, which we have not yet had time to ptruso. ' NULTY AND PARKENSON.— These midland district men, it may be recollected, were matched to fight at catch weight, for £ 10 a side, as far back as July 6. The men met on that day to contend for the stakes, but were shifted about by the autho- rities, but at last found at Yardley, where they contended for one hour, and fought 56 quick rounds, M'Nulty getting first blood and knock- down blow, and having the fight in the early part in his favour; but afterwards grew weak, and it was said that M'Nulty's friends, seeing he had no chance of winning, in- timated that they should withdraw him. Parkenson therefore withdrew from the ring, considering ha was the winner. M'Nulty, however, remained in the ring, and the referee ( Giles) stated that Parkenson never made any appeal to him, but that M'Nulty declared he would continue the fight. Under these circumstances the stakes were not given to Parkeuson, but both men were ordered to fight again, and Friday, Sept 4, was the day ordered by us for the match to come off; but the men mutually agreed to settle the question on Monday last, near the Cock, on the Rubery Hill, and on that day they met again to contend for the stakes, £ 10 a side. A good ring was pitched, and a referee mutually agreed to ( a Mr Lloyd). The men soon entered the ring, attended by their seconds, Wareham and J. Etheridge for M'Nulty, whilst Flesh ( of Dudley) and J. Downes waited upon Parkenson. Both men, as on the previous match, looked in good condition. The bett ing was in favour of Parkenson, at 5 to 4. The men commenced fighting in real earnest, and give and take was the order on both sides; M'Nulcygot first blood from Parkenson's mouthpiece in the third round, and with his left managed to damage the right ogle of Parkenson, who, in return, planted some heavy hits on the potato trap and breastpan of M'Nulty, in the eighth round also damaging his left ogle. In the early part of the fight Parkenson struck foul, aud was duly cautioned by the referee to be careful. The fight continued, M'Nulty having the battle decidedly in his favour, which made Parkenson lose his temper, so much so that in the thirty- third round, after a bustling round, M'Nulty got down on his knees, and whilst in that position Parkenson struck him on the forehead. A cry of foul, and an appeal was at once made by Wareham ( M'Nulty's second) to the referee, who declared that he saw the blow inflicted, and gave in that M'Nulty was the winner, Parkenson having lost the fight by striking foul. The SWIMMING.— F. E. Beckwith, the well- known swimming master of the Lambeth Baths, Westminster- road, wi l take a benefit on Wednesday next, when there will be races and all kinds of swimming feats both in the afternoon and evening. BECKWITH AND DUNHAM'S NOVICE.— For this match we have received a further £ 5 a side, and the next deposit of the same amount will be due Sept 11, POULTRY FANCY.— Mr Burrows, feeling disappointed with the decision of the judges at the late poultry show at the Crystal Palace, Sydenham, to show the merit of the London fancy, will show with the successful competitors of that show and all Eng- land one pair of Malay fowls, aged 15 months, and one pair of Malay chickens, aged 15 weeks, for any amount from £ 1 up- wards. For further particulars address Mr R. Burrows, 12, Richard street, Limehouse Fields, or to Mr King, George the Fourth, Richard- street, Limehouse Fields, where the money can be made good, fight lasted 46 minutes, in which time 33 rounds were fought. The ring was broke in, and a row ensued, in which M'Nulty's referee and seconds were roughly used. The referee, however, abided by the decision given in the ring. CLARK AND KING.— A match has been made between James Clark and George King of Liverpool to fight, according to the new rules ( King staking £ 30 to Clark's £ 25), on Tuesday, October 20th, between thirty and fifty miles of Liverpool. We have received the articles, together with £ 5 a side ( sent last week by Mr Savage), and £ 3 on the part of King, and £ 2 10s 011 the part of Clarke this week. The next deposit was to be made at Mr Savage's, Marble- street, and the third at Mr Clark's, Houghton- street, Sept 8th, King posting £ 3 to Clark's £ 2 10s. BEN CAUNT AND NAT LANGHAM.— Another large meeting took place at Ben Caunt's, Coach and Horses, St Martin's- lane, on Wednesday last to witness the staking of the eighteenth de- posit of £ 10 a side between the host aud Nat Laugham. The ceremony was duly performed with the customary observances. The final deposit of £ 20 a side is to be made at Nat Langham's, Cambrian, Castle- street, Leicester- square, on the 16th iust. BICK AND DAVIS.— A match has been made between Charles Bick of Gloucester and Harry Davis of Cheltenham to fight ac- cording to the new rules, at 9st 41b, for £ 10 a side, Nov 3, near Cheltenham.

Country notes oannot be taken; they will ill all in- stances be sent back DOINGS AT COPENHAGEN GROUNDS, NEAP MANCHESTER. Now that these grounds have been brought to a state of 6' pletion, and their excellence universally admitted by those 1 have had an opportunity of contending upou them, the s;* '-' would not only appear to increase in quantity, but, what ->' far greater important in quality. It rarely indeed falls to our lot to witness a number of heats in a handicap so closely ^ on- tested as in the one we are about to describe, exhibiting, as tnost of the events did, considerable judgment in the allotment of the respective distances of the competitors. With a view to ap- proach still nearer to perfection in pedestrian management, the proprietor of the course continues to add improvements, the last of which has been the erection of a telegraph board, no one being now allowed to run in a heat unless his number has been previously hoisted as a starter, and by it the winner of a race is also instantly denoted. We now proceed to notice the events decided on SATURDAY, AUG 29.— The attendance this afternoon was very large, upwards qt 1,500 persons being on the ground, and the sport opened with a . . GREAT ALL ENGLAND HANDICAP— The original entry for this handicap was an exceedingly numerous one, and the card ol acceptances to- day exhibited 41 names, including those of pedes- trians who had travelled considerable distances in order to con- tend. These were divided into 14 lots, three men being respec- tively in the first 18 and two in the 14th. The prizes were— First £ 25, second £ 3, third £ 2, and the distance to be traversed yard,, for prize, at th^^ O^ rd^ took place shortly after four 9' clock. The following was the sport: Lot 1: J. Whittaker of Hollinwood ( 13 yards start) 1, J. Ingham of Rochdale ( 10 yards) 2, T. Marsh of Hanley, 47 years of age ( 18 yards), 3. After a good race Whittaker won by half a yard.— Lot 2 : J. Newton ( alias Jain Lad) of Hollinwood ( 10 jards start) 1, 0. Ashworth of Simister- lane ( 14 yards) 2, S. Howard of Brad- ford ( 11 yards) 3. Won by two yards.— Lot 3: J. Turton of Not- tingham ( lOi yards start) walked over.— Lot 4: J. Collis of Cnad- derton ( 17 yards start) 1, J. Jaques of Boardman- laue ( 14i > ards) 2, J. Roberts of Macclesfield ( 141 yards) 3. Collins won, after an excellent effort, by half a yard.— Lot 5 : L. Bradbury of Oid- ham ( 13 yards start) 1, W. Constable of Willenhall ( 8 yards) 2, J. Jaques of Rhodes ( 13 yards) 3. This ended in a capital race between Bradbury and Constable, the former eventually winning by twelve inches.— Lot 6 : J. Kevitt of Barnsley ( 124 yards start) 1, J, Partington of Ohadderton ( 14 yards) 2. Kevitt won by two yards.— Lot 7 : G. Richardson of Manchester walked over.— Lot 8 : J. Thorpe of Harpurhey ( 12 yards start) 1, It. Medley of Colue ( 12 vards) 2. This produced another close contest, Thorpe winning by only half a yard.— Lot 9 : T. Clay of Congleton ( 12 yards start) 1, E. Greenwood ( alias the German Lad) of Man chester ( 5 yards) 2, B. Maguire of Stockport ( 13 yards) 3. Won by a yard — Lot 10 : J. Matthews of Salford ( 14 yards start) 1, G. Sellers of Macclesfield ( 13 yards) 2, B. Taylor of Failsworth ( six yards) 3. In this heat Taylor was placed two yards back for leaving his mark before the pistol was fired, aud Matthews was declared the winner by a yard.— Lot 11: T. BoLton of New- ton Heath ( 16 yards start) 1, A. Butterworth of Manchester ( I4i yards) 2, J. Grimshaw of Oldham ( 10 yards) 3. Bolton won easily.— Lot 12 : W. Dean of Middletou ( 13 yards start) 1, J. Nolan of Manchester ( 11 yards) 2, J. Eruminitt of Lepton ( LOi yards) 3, Won by a yard.— Lot 13: R. Grundy of Manchester ( 124 yards start) 1, Sutcliffe of Cooms ( 144 yards) 2, This proved one of the most interesting events of the day, the " old- un setting to work in earnest; and, after a brilliant race, he landed himself a winner by six inches !— Lot 14 : W. Nuttall of Chad- derton ( 16 yards start) 1, J. Peers of Kenyon Junction ( 124 yards) 2. Nuttall proved the winner by a yard.— With this the sports of the day concluded at half- past seven o'clock, and the fourteen winners were then drawn for the order in which they should again contend, the final heats beiug fixed for CANINE MATCH.— DUTCHMAN AND CATCH.— This was a race of 200 yards, for £ 25 a side, between J. Taylor's Dutchman of Oldham and T. Caton's Catch of Dukinlield, neither dog exceed- ing 2141b weight. Mr Thos. Hayes filled the office of referee, and the betting was 2 to 1 on Catch. Dutchman, however, won, after a very close race, by half a yard. MONDAY.— A numerous company again visited the grounds this afternoon— upwards of 900 spectators being present— and much interest was manifested as to the result of the handicap. The first heat was arranged for four o'clock, and came off as follows. Lot 1: Bolton 1, Newton 2, Matthews 3 ; Bolton won by a yard. Lot 2 : Richardson 1, Dean 2, Nuttall 3; won bv three- quarters of a yard. Lot 3: Whittaker 1, Thorpe 2, Keritt 3. Whittaker was declared the winner by 12 inches. Lot 4 : Collins 1, Turton 2, Clay 3; won by only six inchea. Lot 5 : Grundy walked over, Bradbury of Oidkam not putting in an appearance. The pedestrians then ran off in two heats, with the subjoined result. Lot 1: Collins 1, Richardson 2, Bolton 3; won by a yard. Lot 2 : Grundy 1, Whittaker 2 ; won by half a yard. Deciding heat: For this heat Collins was the favourite at thr commencement, but the betting prior to start was 5 to 4 on Grundy. The well known " Old Dick " got well off, instantly reducing materially the 44 yards distance between himself aud his youthful opponent which had been prescribed in the conditions of the handicap. Both men used every energy they could bring to bear, and, when 50 yards from home, Grundy succeeded in passing Collins, subsequently kept in ad- vance, winning by a yard aud a half. On the result being made known some of the backers of Collins looked " unutterable things," whilst the supporters of the veteran proved, by loud cheering, that they were highly elated by their success— and not without a reason— for, considering the number of years that Grundy had been before the public as a pedestrian, his winning this handicap is certainly an astonishing performance. The manner in which Grundy acquitted himself, as well as the way in which he ran, was worthy of his palmiest days. The decisions of Mr Hayes were all that could be desired, the weather on both days was beautifully fine, aud the spectators appeared much gratified by the excellent sport produced in this All England Handicap.

MONDAY, AUG 31.— The weather to- day was rather dull, and several light showers fell during the day, but in spite of this nearly three thousand spectators wended their way up the park hills to witness the great £ 100 handicap race and other events announced to take place. The sports commenced with the GREAT ALL- ENGLAND HANDICAP RACE.— This event was the - - great half- mile handicap raee for the following money prizes, amounting to £ 100, given by Mrs H. Heathcote, the pro- prietress of the ground ( the largest sum ever given to be run for on these grounds). The conditions were that no man should re- ceive more than 70 yards start; the entrance money was 5s each, with an additional 10s eaoh for those that accepted their handicaps ; 65 entered, and 35 accepted, and out of that number five paid forfeit. The prizes were divided as follows, viz:— £ 70 for the first man, £ 20 for the second, and £ 10 for the third. The men were divided as follows:— Lot 1: R. Buun ( Norwich) 32 yards start, 1; W. Norris ( Nottingham) 38, 2 ; John Scott ( Sheffield) 50, 3 ; E. Longden 63, also ran. Buun won a most ex- citing race by five yards, Norris a good second, Scott and Longden not having a shadow of a chance. Time, 2min 2sec.— Lot 2 : Job Smith ( Hulme), 4/ 6 yards start, 1; Alfred Livcrsidge ( Wath), 63, 2 ; Henry Hunt ( Doncaster), 46, 3; William Tuck, 38 and William Buckley ( Ratcliffe), 60, also ran. Time, lmin 581sec. Smith won this heat by four yards, five yards be- tween second and third. It was evident to the spectators that both Tuck and Liversidge were in one stable, and that the former was making play for the latter, who was a great " pot but it boiled over, and Smith, in spite of the numerous attempts to keep him in the rear by Tuck, was declared the winner.- Lot 3: James Hancock ( Salford), 20 yards start, 1; John Train or ( Liverpool), 35, 2. Four others started, but were not placed. At the bottom of the hill Hancock got himself well together, and made one of his extraordinary spurts, gra- dually giving his men the " go- by" up the back stretch, amid the reiterated cheers of the thousands assembled, who, until this moment, thought that the crack was beat. Hancock won by five yards. Time, Imiu 58| sec.— Lot 4. John Pearson ( Gomersall) 53 yards start, 1; James Easy ( Sheffield) 40, 2; Thomas Fordham ( Sheffield) 49, 3; Benjamin Badger ( Wolverhampton) 37, and George William Lamb ( Cock- field) 28, also ran.

Three more ran. Midgley won a good race by a bare yard, Carr being second, beating Cooper by 15 yards for the second place; the rest nowhere.; Time, lmiu 59sec.— Lot 6. Wil- liam Waring ( Church Anston) 65 yards start, 1; George Barber ( Glossop) 39, 2; Joseph Horrocks ( Bury) 20, and John Wilson ( London) 52, also started. Waring went away with the lead, was never caught, and ran in the winner by three yards. Bar- ber, who was second, it was patent to all, could have won this heat with the greatest ease imaginable, but from some cause or other best known to those who were in the secret, allowed Waring to win. Time, 2min 3sec. During the afternoon, JOHN COLLINS and THOMAS HAYES, the former of Stocks- moer, and the latter of Intake, ran 110 yards, for £ 10 a side, and a bet of £ 10 to £ 8 laid on Collins, who was declared the winner by four yards., W. THACKRAY of Worksop and W. PEARSON ran 100 yards for a small stake, the Worksopite receiving 84 yards start, but was defeated by half a yard. TUESDAY.— The weather to- day was all that could be desired. About 1,500 spectators visited the ground to witness the six successful competitors of the previous day run off for the prizes. A great deal of betting took place at the different sporting houses during the fore part of the day. at the following quotations :— 3 to 2 agst Hancock, 10 to 8 agst Job Smith, 7 to 1 agst Pearson, 10 to 1 agst Midgley and Bunn, and 30 to 1 agst Waring. A short time before the race the betting was 5 to 4 agst Hancock and Smith, and 10 to 1 agst any other. Shortly after the time appointed for the start the six men made their appearance on the ground, attended by their respective trainers and a friend each. They at once doffed their flannels and took up their positions; the pistol was fired, and away they went simultaneously ; Hancock, Smith, Pearson, aud Bunn, at once singled themselves out for the struggle for supremacy ; all but Hancock soon gave their opponents the " go- bye ;" on goiug up the hill the last time Hancock tried his usual rush, and again the cry was " Hancock wins," as he passed his men one by one, until the skeleton tent was passed, when he was close to Smith, the leading mau ; the latter, however, was game to the back- bone, and would not allow Hancock to go ahead, but struggled manfully on to the finish, and was declared the winner of the first prize, £ 70, by about three yards. Hancock beat the old veteran Bunn about a yard for the second money, £ 20, the latter getting the tfcird money, £ 10. The others were beat easy. Waring gave up 250 yards from home. Time, lmin 58sec. The entire management was in the hands of Mr Darley, of Sheffield, whose arrangements gave universal satisfaction. ENTRANCES FOR J.

This match was commenced at Chichester on Friday, Aug 28> All England first taking the bat, but the excellence of the bowl- ing and fielding, and the somewhat bumpy state of the ground, prevented runs from being obtained, the Eleven being disposed of for 37 runs. Priory Park sent Messrs Hale and Paine to the wickets, both playing very well, as did Mr Barton, who made 21, by a four, two threes, two twos, and singles, the only- others making scores being Col Elmhirst aud Stubberfield— total being 84. All England then commenced their second in- nings, but were quickly disposed of for 65, the only players showing any hitting being Caesar and Tiuley, the latter being cleverly thrown out by T. Smith. G. Parr played beautifully for 10, all singles. Priory Park then went in to finish, and very ra- pidly made the 19 runs which were required to win, Mr Walton punishing Tinley's slows to wind up. In conclusion, we must observe that the Eleven were quite overmatched, such a twenty being seldom seen against eleven, and having such bowlers as Mr H. Frere, Stubberfield, Gilbert, Edwards, and Wells. Score: : ALL ENGLAND. 1st inn 1st inn J. Caisar, c Elmhirst, b Edwards 5 b Freere 18 E. Willsher, not out 0 b Stubberfield 1 E.

This match commenced on the Bradford Ground, on Monday, the 31st August, and was drawn on Tuesday night, Wednesday being a thorough rainy day, so that no play could be attempted. The wickets were in beautiful order, and the number of specta- tors who assembled to witness the game larger than on any pre- vious occasion. Bradford won the toss, and sent Thomas aud Scaife to the bowling of Jackson and Martingell; the former made a good steady fourteen, aud was bowled by Martingell, Lancaster was run out for a very good 18; Mr Cress well a pretty 10. Hall, who was bowled by a no ball before he had scored, had some luck in his 13; Mr H. Huish's was a very good 14. The rest were minor scores, the innings amounting to 129. E. Stephenson and Diver, on the part of the Eleven, received an over each, when the stumps were drawn for the day. On Tuesday the Eleven only scored 66 in their innings, which is one of those extraordinary occurrences showing the glorious uncertainty of cricket. Anderson and G. Parr were the only double figures, and both caught off bad balls in the slips. The fielding of the Twenty- two was very good, as was the bowling of Hodgson. The second hiningsof Bradford, up to time, amounted to 154. Mr W. Hirst scored a very fine innings of 36, making the ball visit all parts of the field. Lee made some good hits in his 26. Mr Geo. Bankart plaj ed a good steady innings of 13, but Wadsworth's was the gem, his 63 was a magnificent innings, not giving a chance until he had scored 46; he was not out, and Barker ( not out) 3 ; ten wickets only were down of the Twenty- two. In all probability the match would have been drawn if the rain had not stopped, still it ended very much in favour of the Brad- fordians. Everything went oil' very pleasantly. The Eleven were well entertained by those good supporters Mr R. G. Mason, Mr H. Hirst, and other gentlemen of Bradford. Score : THE TWENTY- TWO.

UNITED ELEVEN v TWENTY OF THE LIVERPOOL CLUB AND GROUND AND TWO BOWLERS. AUGUST 27.— This match was commenced on the splendid ground of the Liverpool Club on Thursday week. The ground is situated near Wavertree, and if the grass were to be kept dawn by sheep, instead of using a machine, no ground in England could surpass it. The price of admission was too high to allow of a large company being in attendance, coupled also with the two miles distance from the busy part of the town. For many years the Liverpool Club has held a high position for its cricketing talent, and for this reason the match excited considerable interest. The weather was all that could be desired, and, at half- past twelve o'clock, Liverpool, who won the toss, sent in Messrs T. D. Hornby and Birkett. The game was delayed owing to the non- arrival of John Lillywhite aud Wisden, who were playing at Gravesend in the Kent and Sussex match until Wednesday evening. Mr Hornby remained until four wickets had fallen, and played an excellent innings of 13, wade by a capital drive from Caffyn for four, also a cut from Griffith for three, & c. Mr Horner, who has the style of a cricketer, played well for 12, made by three threes ( drive and two leg- hits), a two, & c. He and Mr Fraser increased the score from 17 to 37. Sir Fraser played a good innings of 12, made by a three ( drive from Wisden— who had arrived, and gone on at Caffyn's end); three twos ( drives and a cut), & c. Perry was well caught, at long- leg— playing a splendid innings of 14, composed of three threes ( two drives and a cut), a two, & c ; his, the eighth wicket, fell for 56, Mr Stewart made three twos. Mr Chapman naada capital drives for a four and a two from Wisden. Mr Sergeantson contributed 7, by a three and two twos, aud the innings closed at four o'clock for 89— far less than was expected by the members of the Eleven. The ground, however, although looking as if nothing could excel it, was somewhat difficult to play upon, and several balls were noticed to get up. Of the Eleven Bell and John Lillywhite made a good stand, making up a total of 33 before they could be parted, when the latter had to succumb to a curler from Brampton, who was bowling remarkably straight, as was also Hiukly. Lillywhite's 19 was composed of a four ( drive from Hinkly), two twos, and singles. Caffyn was caught at point the second ball, and Bell afterwards gave a skyer, playing an excel- lent innings of 10, made by two twos and singles. Mr Miller made a fine off drive from Hinkly for five, and with the assist- ance of two in the slips had to retire. Wisden and Clarke were in when the stumps were drawn, total six wickets for 60 runs. Alfred Clarke was changed over for this match, in the room of Dean, who ( as a sort of mut ual accommodation) played with the All England at Chichester. These friendly arrangements will be observed with pi asuro by all true cricketers. TUESDAY.— Clarke did not add to his score, being splendidly caught at a rather long cover point or mid- wicket. The fielding, in fact, of the whole of the Twenty- two was perfection. Wisdea was 3tumped by Mr Lockhart, whose name we introduced in our last week's report of the North and South match at Sheffield. Wisdeu thought, he was bowled, and thus gave himself up by walking off. His figures were a three ( drive from Brampton) and singles ; altogether he played an admirable innings. The whole were out at ten minutes past one o'clock for 78, being 11 in a minority. Liverpool in their second innings made up a total of 120, of which Brampton ( bar his chances) played well for 41; he made several remarkably fine drives, and his figures were five threes ( of which threo were splendid drives aud a cut), eight twos, & c. With Mr Stewart, he brought on Caffyn at Wisden's end. Mr Stewart scored an excellent 11, making a drive from Caffyn for four, and a cut from Wisden for three. Mr H. H. Hornby, who was suffering from a bad finger, which he had in- jured at cricket a few evenings before, made a seven, including an excellent leg- hit from Wisden for three. Messrs C- Todd and Haigh ( the two last but one) increased the score from 102 to 120, when the stumps were drawn. The following morning, however, no addition was made to the total, and the innings therefore closed for that amount. The hitting of these two last- named gentlemen seemed to take every one by surprise. Mr Haigh's 10 comprised two threes, two twos, & c, aud Mr Todd's two fours ( drive, and a cut from Griffith in one over). This innings closed at a quarter past twelve o'clock on Saturday, leaving England 131 to get, of which number, owing to the very first- rate fielding and bowling, they could only accomplish 63, John Lillywhite himself scoring more than half that number. We may add that the ground very much assisted, the bowlers, who were continually on the spot, and this, with the assistance of so efficient a field, was the cause of Liverpool's easy victory— 68 runs. The umpires were Martingell and But- tress. Score : LIVERPOOL. 1st inn | 2d inn T. D. Hornby, Esq, b Caffyn 13 b Caffyn 0 J. L. Birkett, Esq, b Griffith 1 ~ C.

UNITED ELEVEN v TWENTY- TWcToF CARDIFF. AUGUST 31.— This match was played at Cardiff on Monday Tuesday, and Wednesday last, and euded in an easy victory for the United. The ground, although at times covered with water from high tides, is of a first- rate soil, and the wiekets conse- quently were beautiful, having received attention through the exertions of the Messrs Stacey, great lovers and skilful players of the game. The weather was charming, and all the prepara- tions having been made, the bell announced " play," and the United having won the toss, sent in Mr Miller and Grundy. Twelve runs were scored before they were parted, when the former was bowled by an easy one. Grundy played a splendid inniugs of 22, made by two threes, two twos, and singles. Lockyer exhibited his usual liveliness until he had scored 28, comprising seven twos and singles. Mortlock and Griffith each scored 11, the former especially playing admirably, his figures being a two and singles. Griffith made a four, a three, a two, aud siMgles. Hinkiy bowled very straight, and Mr Jones, a member of the Cardiff Club, also bowled well for the nineteen overs he was on. Cardiff was put out for 48, of which Messrs Kempson and F. E. Stacey contributed 15 aud 13, the former by a three, three twos, & o, and the latter by a four, a three, two twos, and singles. Both played to the fine bowling of Wisden and Griffith admirably, and were ap- plauded upou entering the tent. The United in their second inniugs made a good start, Wright and Mortlock, the two first bats, scoring 49 before they were parted. They both played as cricket should be played, until Mortlock commenced hitting, and got well stumped by Mr Stacey. Wright then saw Dean, Lockyer, and Caffyn fall, when he had to succumb to Selby, who had gone on at Hinkly's end. Although Wright was suffering from indisposition, he surmounted much of the difficulty by his steadiness and perseverance; he made one of his old square leg- hits for four; his other figures were two threes, seven twos, and singles. Wisden and Bell ( the last roan) then got in, and com- pletely baffled the field, by running when the bail w& s fielded at short leg, slip, loug- stop, & c. Overthrows, too, followed, so that it amounted to almost tip and run. Bell is noted for this game; and we recollect, when at Birmingham, he won a match through it. Wisden brought out his bat for a well- played innings © f 35, comprised of two threes, seven twos, and singles. Bell's figures were three threes, three twos, aud singles. The innings closed for 144, leaving the difficult task of 190 to win. The bowling of Hiukly was very straight, but the fielding department, with the exception of Mr C. Stacey and one or two others, was indifferent, catches after catches being missed. On Tuesday evening seven wickets were lowered in about twenty minutes for 14 runs, and the remainder were got out on Wednesday in about one hour and a half, such was the straightness of Griffith's bowling, and the admirable fielding of the Eleven, who won the match by 135 runs. The Eleven were most generously and hospitably enter- tained by the gentlemen of Cardiff. Score: UNITED. 1st inn 2d inn F. P. Miller, Esq, b Jones 5 c C.

At the conclusion of which a meeting was held for the purpose of selecting the eleven to contend against the United States, on the 19th and 20th of this month ( August), when we believe that all considerations other than those of merit were discarded, and the sole desire of the committee seemed to be to pick the strongest eleven that could be found.

On the part of Limerick some good cricket was displayed by Mr Perry in the first iunings, and by Sergt Usley in the second, but the crafty slows were attended with great success, and decided the match in favour of Templemore.

LILLYWHITE'S COLLECTION OF SCOBES FBOM 1746, IN PBE PABATION.— The compiler of this projected work would fee particularly obliged if secretaries of clubs or other gentlemen would communicate with him, in order to assist in obtaining information relating to the game, such as the " alteration of the laws, and size of stumps, from time to time," & c, & c. The loan of scere- books, or notices of any remarkable events that have occurred in the game, will also be thankfully received and imme- diately acknowledged. All communications will receive instant attention, and the compiler trusts that this appeal for the pur- pose of publishing a " complete history" of the noble game will not be in vain. Bell's Life in London, from its first number, as well as the Marylebone Club books ( by authority of the com- mittee), have been carefully searched, and many important and interesting events abstracted ; numerous other reprint and manuscript copies have also been examined, which fully prove that many other good matches were played years back, and he hopes the scores of them are still obtainable.

AMPTON V WOOLPIT.— This match was played in the park at Ampton on Thursday, the 20th August. The batting of Mr Hogg was much admired, as also that of Mr Wiffin, who played well for his side.

Continued sales of bullion have been made to the Bank of England, and this induced some parties to anticipate a re- daction in the minimum on Thursday, but it is presumed that a more favourable alteration is desirable in the reserve of notes, and other securities, before such a ohange can be carried out. The directors, however, have agreed to make advances on six months' bills during the shutting of the transfer books. The return from that establishment completed for the week ended the 29th ult, shows the following results :— The bullion has in- creased to the extent of £ 270,456, the total in both depart- ments being £ 11,500,587. The notes unemployed are larger by £ 168,905, and the other securities by £ 458,278, the account now standing at £ 17,811,66S. The public deposits were larger by £ 631,091, and the active circulation increased to the extent of £ 115,570" The adviees from Australia state that large amounts of gold were coming forward, and, besides this, the present quotation of Exchange at New York will insure a continuance of shipments from that port. Business in the market for English securities has been rather quieter this week, but as soon as the first effects of the Indian news had disappeared prices became firmer, and a rise of nearly i per cent occurred. Numerous speculative ac counts for the fall were closed, and a few were inclined to spe- culate for a rise in consequence of the expectation of money soon becoming cheaper, and alBO owing to the sales of gold at the Bank, This rise, however, has not been wholly supported, and Consols closed yesterday afternoon at 90f i for money, and at 90J 91 for the October account. The transfer books for some of the prin- cipal stocks, including Reduced Annuities, are now closed, and Exchequer Bills are depressed to about 5s discount.
