THE BASINGSTOKE BREWERY.— Very im- portant Sale of the Basingstoke Brewery, with 95 Inns and Public Houses attached, also a Freehold Farm of 52 acres, the whole in one lot.— Mr RICHARD MOSS, will SELL, under instructions from the devisees in trust, acting under the will of the late Charles May, Esq, at the Auction Mart, London, on Monday, October 19, at 12, in one lot, all that very valuable and important property, comprising the BASINGSTOKE BREWERY, in the county of Hants, with the Inns and Public Houses attached thereto. It is an old family property, having been in possession of the present owners and their ancestors for upwards of a century, and is now submitted to competition in exercise of the powers vested in the trustees, who have determined on realising the estate. The business is one of high standing in the county, and has been con- ducted with eminent success; it is now in a most thriving and prosper- ous condition. The trade is gradually on the increase, and amounted during the last twelve months to upwards of 10,600 barrels ( nearly one half of which was strong ale!, with ample scope for increasing it to any reasonable extent. There is also a fine opening for the addition of the spirit trade, which is estimated would amount to between 7,000 and 8,000 gallons per annum. Basingstoke is situate in a beautiful part of the country, within 50 miles, or about an hoar and a half, of London by the South Western Railway. The property comprises the bre wery, with malt houses, and extensive and commodious premises, embracing every requisite for carrying on the trade, situate ciose to the railway, in the town of Basingstoke. Also two capital residences, suitable for the occupation of the principals. The whole of the buildings are of the most substantial character, and in ex- cellent repair. The brewery is fitted up with a 28 quarter plant, con- structed upon the most modern principle, combining all the recent im- provements, worked by a steam engine, and including store vats, to con- tain about 1,500 barrels. There are sixty- three freehold, copyhold, tnd leasehold inns and public houses attached to the concern, together with numerous cottages, land, and other property, by far the larger portion of which is of freehold tenure; and also about thirty free public houses sup- plied from the brewery, A considerable number of the houses are situate in the town and neighbourhood, and the remainder in the towns and villages within ten or twelve miles of the brewery ; also in the important towns of Odiham, Farnham, Alton, Aldershott, Hartley Row, Farnboreugh, Eversley, Blackwatsr, and Winchester. The houses for the most part are in ex- cellent repair, large sums having been annually expended in maintaining them in the most efticient state. They are let to a respectable and re- sponsible tenantry, at old rentals, which would justify considerable aug- menting. Also will be included in the sale, a freehold farm, of about 52 acres of highly productive pasturs and arable land, with farmhouse aud bui idings. The purchaser will have the option of taking a lease of a farm of 170 acres immediately adjoining, and the transfer of the tenancy of about 112 acres, making in the whole 835 acres. To gentlemen of capital this property offers unusual advantages for investment, the character of the business reducing to a certainty the average return of a fair amount of profit for the capital invested, and secuiing to the proprietor considerable local influence, which invariably attaches to a propeily of this description. The trustees are prepared to leave one- third of the purchase money upon mortgage of the property, if required, at four per cent. May be viewed by permission ot the respective tenants; and particu- lars had at the Railway Hotel, Reading; at the Auction Mart; of Messrs Lamb, Brooks, Sons, and Cliallis, at Basingstoke and Odiham; and of Mr Richard Mosu, 12, King William- street, Citv.

COCKLE'S COMPOUND ANTIBILIOUS PILLS have long been recognised as a uiost effectual remedy for indi- gestion occurring in this country, and experience has also fully justified their use in those continual and violent forms of bilious disorder of too frequent recurrence in hot climates, where the digestive organs, and more especially the liver, are subject to such sudden and irregular in- crease of their functions, that they often form tha exciting cause of the fatal endemic fever peculiar to those climates. To Europeans, there- fore, contemplating a residence abroad, and for whose use a mild and efficient aperient is required, strengthening the stomach and regulating the secretion of bile, Cockle's pills are confidently recommended, having now stood the test of public opinion for nearly 60 years.

PEOPLE of ENGLAND.— if you desire to know what doctorcraft really is, just look at the " Medical Times and Gazette" of Saturday, Sept 5, page 250, in which it is proposed by a doctor to put the whole country under a system of sypliiiisation. We are perfectly astonished how any respectable medical journal can devote two of its editorial pages to such an infamous idea: however, so it is, and the public will always be liable to such impositions, until the only true system be adopted, namely," that the blood is the life, and its im- purity the cause of all diseases." Then comes the question as to which is the proper mode of purifying the Btream of Mfe, and on that point ex- perience, teaches that it can only be effectually accomplished by proper vegetable purgation.

We are not prepared to agree with that opinion, sa convenient to heartless scoundrels who contrive to obtain a certain polish of manner and do the vilest things with an air of great gentility. But whatever may be our opinion as to the relative demerits of vice with and vice without the accora' paniment of external politeness, the last week has afforded a marked opportunity of choosing between the two. India fur- nishes from day to day accounts of the most harrowing and heartrending kind. Three papers alone relate and refer to these dreadful accounts with complacency and even with triumph. Oestemisehe Zeitung, the Univers, and an Irish paper, revel the brutalities of the sepoys. The source whence each pro- ceeds is manifest. It is priestly. The Univers is the only polished one of the three— the Austrian paper stands in the midst without the polish of the Univers or the coarse brutality of the Irish journal. But all attribute the Indian calamity to English Protestantism, and the French journal finds that it is Protestantism which urges us to seek an enormous develop- ment of our commerce rather than to spzead Christian civilisa- tion among our conquered dependants. It is alas the reverse of this which has mainly contributed to the present outbreak. The hand of the priest thus broadly stamps itself on all these three productions. That between such persons as the writers of these three articles, especially of that which is found in the Irish paper, and the murdering sepoys there should be a strong and binding sympathy may not be wonderful, but considering that the Irish writer calls himself a Christian it betrays inconsistency between profession and conduct. Their states, habits, thoughts, and feelings must all be alike. He who praises what is done by the sepovs would do the same thing if he got the same opportunity. Want of space prevents us from publishing these articles in our columns, but we must give a sentence or two. The Irish writer says, " Sweeter than the voice of love, sweeter than the warm accents of friendship, dearer than the mellowed sunshine of the heart is the news of English disoomfiture in India to the hearts of the Irish people. They are delighted, rejoice, and gladdened beyond measure when they hear of the torture and humiliation of their ancient foe. There is not a vessel at hers which is wrecked, there is not ageneral of hers who is slain, there is not a batallion in her service which is routed and overthrown that the people of Ireland do not gloat over with the greatest satisfaction and delight." " They are delighted with the intelligence received from the East, where the forces of the Great Mogul are pounding the armies of Great Britain. " Wherever England draws the sword or lights the match, Ireland prays for her defeat, and at no time has she prayed more fervently in that way than she does now when the patriot sepoys of India are endeavouring to strangle the British power, and sweep it, root and branch, from the fair and fertile fields of Hindostan." Considering what are the means by which the British power has been assailed ; that the " patriot sepoys" have pounded unarmed, or captive and wounded men, and defenceless and helpless women and children, marking their outbreak by ferocities hitherto unequalled ; and that this is their sweeping " root and branch," of which the Irish writer is so proud and so rejoices at, the declaration of his joy is a strange one on his part. He takes no exception to the mode of procedure, he does not exclude any, the very worst sepoy barbarities from his praise, he sees nothing but the possible downfal of British power, and that is a recommendation to him for everything. No man having dear family connections, no man not profes- sionally cut off from all the tender ties of relationship, could or would have written thus. Such a man could not appreciate any more than he could imitate the martyadom of Skene and his young and lovely wife, and helpless children. The style of the article betrays the source from which it comes. The fruit marks the nature of the tree that bore it. It is the evil tree which should be " cut down and cast into the fire." Lees coarse in form, but not less bitter in spirit, are the two articles in the two foreign papers we have indicated ; and the Austrian » the more to be remarked, since it is an official organ of that Government to whose alliance our own Government has so often sacrificed English interests and English honour. Let us add, which we do with pleasure, that the Oest Deutsche Post, also an organ of the Government, writes in an exactly opposite style; so that we may conclude that, with the Austrian Govern- ment, the English difficulty in India is " an open question." As for the French journal, it is one which stands alone in its country. It is the opponent of the French Government, and would wil- lingly be the oppressor of the French people. It is the devoted organ of the priests alone, and echoes their sentiments. " The exception proves the rule," and these three exceptions to the feelings of Ireland, France, and Germany do but the more strongly bring out into gratifying relief the opinions of all other people in three countries. The gallantry, the unshrikiug firm- ness of the British character, as displayed in these days of evil, have won from the world at large a loud and earnest expression of esteem and admiration, and, from all but fiends in human shape, the sufferings which have been undergone and the forti- tude by which they have been borne, by women no less than by men, have won a sympathy before which national jealousies have faded away as something too petty and too meaa to be liar boured in the presence of such dignified heroism and virtue. The respectable French journals which are Christian, but not priestly, express their abhorrence at Indian ferocity, and their sympathy with the men who have been treacherously made its victims. Nay, more, they do not look with any mean jealousy on England's rule in India, or express any discreditable hopes for its downfal. They acknowledge that we have been humane and kindly conquerors, and that had we been leas so, had we more resembled the iudians themselves these calamities would not have come upon us. tt was our trusting confidence which be- trayed us; we would not believe that the men whom we cherished, petted, and indulged, would turn upon us, andadding the vilest treachery and most fiendlike brutality to hostility, would not only endeavour to strike down our authority, but would accompany tnat attempt with unheard of cruelties to helpless and inoffensive women and children. The French Am- bassador here— the French Emperor himself, and, even better than these, the soldiers of the Imperial Guard, have all contri- buted nobly towards the fund which is to alleviate the pecuniary wants of the poor sufferers. The priestly journal alone, in con- tradiction to the generous sentiments of its countrymen, finds a source of satisfaction in the murder of men, women, and children because they are English Protestant. As to the " Austrian Journal" the cause of its gratification is easily understood. England is the opponent of all tyranny, political and religious, therefore the Austrian Journal, the sup- porter of both, hates England, and wishes it and its citizens all sorts of evil. We can well afford to despise the hatred, and to be indifferent to the wishes, but in treating both with contempt we must notice one matter contained in the article of the Austrian Journal. It is there said, with a sneer, that no bodies of men have come forward as volunteers to avenge their country- men in India. Foreigners who do not understand our insti- tutions might be misled by this remark into supposing that Englishmen are either unfeeling or cowardly. In both respects the supposition would bo false. But we are, though despots cannot comprehend it, not merely the subjects, but, it might sometimes be said, the slaves, of law and order. No volunteer bodies of troops are ever formed except under the authority of the Government, nor would indeed be tolerated except upon an invasion of this country itself, but our army ( which, let the Austrian remember, is composed entirely qf volunteers) is being recruited at a very rapid rate, and. if the popular will had been obeyed, every soldier we possess, and every British ship that floats would have been despatched to India, and we should have stood without fear all the chances of danger to England itself which our statesmen so absurdly affect to dread. THE BELFAST RIOTS. The odmm theologium has long been notorious as the bitterest and worst of hate. It would almost appear that everything theological partakes of the same quality. To observe what is passing in the world might nearly lead to the startling conclu- sion that everything which calls itself religious is opposed to Religion. That which calls itself religious zeal does certainly often present this perplexing contradiction to what ought to be expected frem it. In England we are too sober and sensible for such mischievous absurdities, but in Ireland they still seem to have root, and they bear bitter fruit. A Mr Hanna has tnought fit to insist on having some open- air preaching in Belfast. He was warned that the Roman Catholics would not have the good sense to be indiffrent to him, and that consequently the public peace might be disturbed ; but he said he should exercise his " rights ;" and so he preached, and a row ensued, and the mili- tary were called out, and blood has been shed. On the head of Mr Hanna on the one side, and on the heads of those who insti- gated the Roman Catholics on the other side, lies the moral re- sponsibility for this bloodshed. But on that, the relihious point of the case, we shall say no more. We have to deal with the legal part of it in this world. In point of laA Mr Hauna might per- haps have a right to preach in the open ai, though he certainly had none if he chose to preach in a public thoroughfare, and thus occasion a nuisance in the Queen's highway. If he offended in that way the unlawful gathering should have been dispersed by authority, and the public highway kept clear; but whether he did so or not, no armed assemblage of fanatics, as foolish and ill- conditioned as he had any right to attempt its dipers% l by violence. The authority of the law ought to be vindicated against both parties— against Mr Hanna and his supporters for creating a nuisance, againt his assailants for a seditious riot. The magistrates, constables, and soldiers all appear to have acted in a spirit which does them the greatest credit. They could not suppress the riot without using military means, but these means were not brought into use one moment too soon, nor were they resorted to until longer delay would have made matters much worse, and would have necessitated measures of the most serious and perhaps continued severity. A few of the rioters, wilfully persevering in their violence after the riot act had been read, have been wouuded and one or two killed— but for the generous forbearance of the authorities, the number might have been ( and justifiably so) much greater. What a hydra existence this fanaticism has. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. FRANCE. The Pays publishes a correspondence from Pondicherry of July 22, for the purpose of giving a complete denial to the re- port that there were grounds for uneasiness as to the French establishments in India. All was perfectly tranquil, so. much so that several foreign families had taken refuge in French terri- tory. It is true that, by way of precaution, the governor had established militia corps, composed of the principal inhabitants, in Pondicherry, Kavikal, Yanxon, and Chandernagor, but in no instance had these forces any occasion to act. General Bedeau has addressed from Spa a letter to the hide- pendtmce of Brussels relative to some statements which were made at the trial which has just taken place at Oran. The questions which that trial has raised, by directing the attention of the public to the organisation of the Arab bureaux and to the usages of the military government of Algeria, have excited the susceptibility of the general for the reputation of his brothers in arms and his own. He bears testimony to the integrity of the French array in the midst of a population which the govern ment of the Turks had accustomed to commit and to suffer ex- cesses of all kinds. The Emperor intends to submit the whole matter to investigation, and to see if the government of Algeria cannot be reformed. After numerous unsuccessful trials, the natural incubation of ostrich eggs has just been accomplished at the Government establishment at Algiers, and no doubt now exists that these birds may be reared in a domestic state. This is the only suc- cessful experiment that has yet been obtained. An evening paper says the number of Europeans cruelly tor- tured and finally killed at Cawnpore is 6£ 0, amongst whom was a French family, consisting of M Beauvais, his wife, and two children. The same authority ( a correspondent of La Presse) says the siege of Delhi is confined to the defensive since the death of General Barnard. Nana Sahib is said to be at the head of 10,000 men, who are employed ia destroying everything European. There has been a little dispute with Prussia. The Emperor had bestowed the Cross of the Legion of Honour on the Count Rosenberg, Secretary of Legation. The count was annoyed at not having obtained a higher grade in the order, and declined to wear the decoration. Count Walewski directed K de Moustier to complain about this discourtesy at Berlin, and Count Rosen- berg is ordered to thrust an inch of red ribbon in bis button- hole, and to apologise to Count Walewski for having abstained from doing so before. PIEDMONT. The court- martial at Geuoa has condemned the non- com- missioned officer who was entrusted with the keeping of the arms of Fort Diamante to eight years* imprisonment for his be- haviour on the night of June 29, when the fort was attacked by a party o* rebels. The sentinel has been acquitted. " THE ORDER OF ST HELENA." It is well that an error which affects the feelings should be at once corrected, The Constitutionnel supposes that English- men are annoyed at the name given by the Emperor to the new military medal which he has struck in honour of the French soldiers who fought under the Consulate and the Empire. The Constitutionnel has entirely misunderstood the comments that have been made on this name. There is not an Englishman who begrudges to these old French soldiers the bestowal of an honour to whioh their bravery, endurance, and zeal so justly entitles them. But we oannot think the name bappily chosen. Instead of recalling their services and their triumphs, it recals only the melaacholy termination of both. It is not for us to suggest a title for the medal, but we think it would not have been difficult to find a better— and had a better been given, one bearing less reference to a circumstance almost equally distasteful to the people of England as to the people of France, it would have met with hearty English approbation. HOLLAND, The journals of the Hague state there is no truth in the re- port which has been current, that the King of the Netherlands is about to cede the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg to Prussia. The Prussian papers, in making the statement, only illustrated the proverb of the wish being father to the thought. SWEDEN. The Gazette de Gothenbirrg of the 4th states that in conse- quence of a consultation on the state of the health of the King of Sweden, it is acknowledged that his Majesty cannot in any case sustaiu the burden of public affairs for a year to come. The King has therefore felt it his duty to request the States to pro- vide for the government during his illness, according to the mode prescribed by the Constitution. DEATH OF LIEUT- GENEEAL G. A. HENDEESON, K. H., K. C.— Another colonelcy is vacant by the death of Lieut- General George Augustus Henderson, colonel of the 59th Regiment, who died on Monday last, at his seat in Worcestershire, in his 79th year. The deceased general entered the army in 1793, and up to his retirement on half- pay in 1817, had seen considerable active ser- vice, having served in Ireland during thg rebellion of 1798, and with the expedition to the Helder in 1799, He accompanied Sir Ralph Abercrombie to Egypt in 1801. In 1808 he landed with his regiment in Portugal, and took part in the battles of Vimiera and Corunn ® . He returned to England with the other British forces, and was next employed in the expedition to the Scheldt, and the siege of Flushing. He again, in 1811, went to the Penin- sula, and served until the end of that war in 1814. He com- manded the Queen's at the battle of Toulouse, on which occa- sion he received the brevet of lieutenant- colonel. General Hen- derson received the war medal and four clasps for Egypt, Yimiera, Corunna, and Toulouse. In 1836 he was made a Knight of the Hanoverian Guelphic order, and had previously received the order ( 2d Class) of the Crescent. In April, 1852, he was appointed Colonel of the 59th Regiment by the late Duke of Wellington. DEATH OF SIE CHABLES CLARKE:.— Sir Charles Mansfield Cl& rke, Bart, one of the most distinguished ornaments of the medical profession, died on Monday at Brighton, aged 76, after a long illness. He is succeeded by his eldest son, who is rector of Haiiwell, Middlesex. DENMARK. The King resists any further concessions to the Duchies. He will be supported in his resistance. A St Petersburg letter says:—" The Cabinet of Copenhagen has sent to the Russian Government a note, in which it sets forth the position it has taken in the Holstein question with regard to Austria and Prussia. According to tiiis note, no fresh concessions from Den- mark are to be hoped for; it says, in fact, that after the pro- positions presented to the Chambers of Holstein, no new ones will be made. The Cabinets of Vienna and Berlin appear to in- crease their pretensions in proportion to the concessions of Den- mark. The Russian Government shares completely in the views of the Cabinet of Copenhagen, and Prince Gortschakoff has made that fact known to the courts interested. It is even possible that, in case Denmark were inclined to make concessions calculated to effect the unity of the monarchy, Russia would, in order to guarantee her eventual rights to Denmark, protest against such a course." RUSSIA. A letter from St Petersburg of the 27th states that in the last accounts from Odessa loud complaiuts are made about the sup- pression of the place as a free port, and which measure, it is feared, will be its ruin. The customs tariff which is now ap- plied to Odessa is not heavy, but it is nevertheless very different from what it was before. The inhabitants of Odessa are also in great alarm, fesring that the railways which are about to be constructed, and none of which come near that port, will draw away from it the commerce of the southern provinces, and they have therefore got up a petition to the Emperor praying that a line of railway may be constructed to their port to connect it with the great net- work about to be formed. TURKEY. A letter from Bulgaria, in the Cologne Gazette, states that the Prussian andTurkish members of the European Commission assembled at Galatz have left for Widdin, in order to make sur- veys and plans on which will be based the project for regularising the course of the Danube. The Prussian Commissioner has ex- pressed his opinion that the works for preventing the river from undermining the fortifications of Widdin may be accomplished at a very trifling expense. It is in contemplation to convert Widdin iuto a fortified place of the first rank, on a plan proposed by Omar Pasha in 1853. In the meantime the fortress will serve as a place of detention for political prisoners of the Asiatic pro vinces. A number of them have lately escaped, but all those belonging to the Kurd race have been retaken. ELECTION OF PRESIDENT OF QUEENS' COLLEGE, CAMBRIDGE. — The vacancy in the Presidentship of Queens' College was filled up on Wednesday by the election by the society of the Rev George Phillips, B. D., rector of Sandon, Essex. Mr Phillips graduated from Queens' in 1829 as eighth wrangler, and was soon after elected a fellow, and finally a tutor of his college, which latter distinguished position he held until his presenta- tion by the society to the rectory of Sandon in 1846. Mr Phillips is author of a Commentary on the Psalms, a Syriac Grammar, and other works. A NOBLE EXAMPLE.— We have great pleasure in hearing that the Marquis of Dalhousie has placed the whole of his pension of £ 5,000 per annum, conferred on him by the East India Company, at the disposition of the London committee for the aid of the sufferers from the Indian rebellion. THE QUICKEST PASSAGES IN THE CHANNEL.— On Friday night the royal mail packet Prince Frederick William ran with the mails from Dover to Calais, against tide, in one hour and twenty- seren minutes, and returned next morning in one hour and twenty- one minutes. On Saturday night she proceeded to Ostend, and ran the seventy- three statute miles in three hours and fifty minutes from the time she was ordered to go on outside Dover pier to the time she was eased in Ostend Harbour, averag- ing in this passage a spaed of above nineteen miles an hour. She landed her mails and fifty- seven passengers at Ostend three hours and a half before the mail train started. FUND FOE THE RELIEF OF THE SUFFEBEES IN INDIA,— In addition to the noble donation from the Marquis of Dalhousie, alluded to elsewhere, we peroeive among the subscriptions to this fund, her Majesty £ 1,000, the Emperor of the French £ 1,000, the Dowager Lady Forbes £ 1,000, the French Imperial Guard £ 400, the Bank of England £ 500, Prince Albert £ 300, & c, & c. THE MEDITEEEANEAN TELEGRAPH.— SUCCESSFUL LAYING OF THE CABLE.— On Thursday afternoon intelligence reached town of the successful submergence of the cable in the Medi- terranean, and it now unites in instantaneous intercourse England and Europe with Africa. The expedition, under the command of Messrs Newall, the engineers, started from Cagliari, on the Sardinian coast, with the cable in the hold of the Elba, and began paying it out, commencing from the African coast at Bona, on the Algerine frontier. PEESENTATION OF A SWOBD, & C, TO COLONEL WILBEAHAM, C. B.— The tenantry of the paternal estate of Colonel Wilbraham, C. B., with their wives and families, assembled in force on Tues- day afternoon last, at Rode Hall, Cheshire, for the purpose of presenting to that gallant officer ( who now holds the staff ap- pointment of adjutant- general of the northern and midland districts, and who resides at 110, Plymouth- grove, Manchester), a mark of their respect for, and admiration of, his conduct. The committee, after purchasing a handsome and useful sword, at a cost of upwards of 50 guineas, finding that the whole of the funds placed at their disposal had not been expended, resolved upon adding to the sword a copy of Wellington's Despatches. A copy, handsomely bound in russia and gilt, was accordingly procured, at a cost of twelve guineas; and Mr Thomas Orme, carver in wood, of Manchester, was commissioned to provide an appro- priate cabinet, which is of solid oak, elaborately carved, and surmounted by a statuette of the Great Duke, in Parian, and underneath are the words " Victi victorem, vincens." The sword was presented to Colonel Wilbraham by Mr Samuel Yates, one of the oldest tenant farmers on the estate, and the De- spatches and cabinet by the Rev James Losh, of Rode. THE BEAEMAB GATHERING.— The annual muster of High- land clans to celebrate the " Braemar gathering " took place on the lawn in front of the old Castle of Mar, in presence of the Queen and court, on Thursday week. Preparations of a very unusual character were made for the present occasion, and were favoured by the weather, which had been most inauspicious in the morning, but cleared up at noon. During the previons day an immense number of strangers had assembled in and around the village of Charlestown, and from an early hour on Thursday morning crowds of pedestrians were wending their way towards the scene of the gathering. The first muster of the clans in erder consisted of the Lorrach Highlanders, or Craigievar men, under their chief, Sir Charles Forbes, of New. They numbered 130 stalwart fellows, all equipped in the Highland garb. Sir Charles, with Sir William Forbes of ' Craigievar, and Colonel Teesdale ( one of the heroes of Kars), hadled amarch from Strath- don to Invercauld on the Wednesday, halting opposite to Bal- moral, and bivouacking for the night in tents at Invercauld. This clan gathered in front of the Invercauld Arms, at Castletown, on Thursday at noon, and were sosn joined by 80 of the Invercauld men, or Farquharson High- landers, under their chiefs— viz, Captain Farquharson, of the Scotch Fusilier Guards, and his brothers. The next muster was that of the Duff Highlanders, who were headed by the Earl of Fife, Yiseaunt Macduff, and officered by Captain Kennedy Erskine, Mr Brooke, and Mr G. Lane Fox. The Earl of Airlie was also present at the muster, with a goodly number of the Airlie Highlanders, and the whole, with banners flying and pipes playing, marched to the Castle Park, where they formed two sides of a square, within which th8 games came off. The gathering was much larger than it had been on any former occasion, and the appearance ef the Highlanders was exceedingly imposing. On the green embankment around the castle reserved places were occupied by the families of the aristocracy who were present, Mr and Mrs Farquharson showing every kindness to their distinguished guests. On the brow of the bank sofas were placed for the Queen and court, from which a commanding view of the whole scene, as well as the surrounding country, was ob- tained. The games commenced about two o'clock, and at three the Queen drove up to the castle, and was received with long- continued applause. Her Majesty wore the Royal Stuart Tar- tan, and the Prince Consort was dressed in the Highland garb. The games consisted of the usual routine of throwing the stone, putting the hammer, and tossing the caber, with racing and dancing. It will serve to show the strength of arm of some of these Highlanders when we state that a stone weighing 28£ lb was thrown by Gregor M'Gregor, from Glenfishie, 25 feet 5 inches ; and that Wm. M'Hardy, of Strathdon, threw a ham- mer of 16lb 72 feet 6 inches. These throws gained the first prizes. This same M'Hardy threw the large stone 27 feet 6 inches, but, as he had been a first prize man before, he could only be allowed a medal in the present contest. The dancing consisted of the Strathspeys and the sword dance, which were spiritedly con- tested, and drew forth from her Majesty special commendation. Before the games were well through the weather changed for the worse, and the Queen had to take shelter in the castle, which was very tastefully decorated with flowers and ever- greens, and, soon after, the Court left, and the Highlanders re- turned to the village, where they were liberally entertained by their chiefs. In the evening there was a ball in the castle, whioh was crowded as usual, and continued to an early hour in the morning. The substaatial results of this gathering will be a considerable addition to the funds of the benevolent society, the interests of which it is chiefly intended to subserve. NEW STREET FROM THE STRAND TO COYENT- GAEDEN.— During the last few days a large number of men have been actively at work in making the necessary preparations for the new street which is to run from the Strand to the eastern end of Co vent- garden. Diverging from the Strand at Burleich- street, the new line will take an oblique or rather a diagonal 3irection, on account of the difference of level between Exeter- street and the intersecting thoroughfare, and from this point it will pro- ceed in a direct line with the Hummums Hotel, entering the market opposite the north- east angle, which hereafter is in- tended to form the Royal entrance to the new Covent- garden Theatre. THE INDIAN MUTINIES. The following are extracts from letters from Lieut- Colonel Edwardes, C. B., dated from June 21 to July 6 :— " PESHAWUE.— As yet we have made no impression on Delhi. General Reed's, or rather General Barnard's, force was too weak to besiege Delhi, and has had to stop and wait for reinforce- ments just as General Whish had at Mooltan. The rebels far exceed him in numbers and in guns. The numbers are of little consequence, for disorganised fragments of rebel regiments never can oontend successfully with the serried battalions of a well- appointed army led by English officers. But it is a serious matter to have 150 pieces of artillery ( taken out of our own maga- zine) playing upon our canp. Engagements take place every two or three days, and we are easily victorious in the open field. The enemy loses hundreds in every skirmish, and the heaps of dead are re plundered by our soldiers of all the plunder they had secreted round their waists. We lose very few men or offioers. But we don't get into Delhi, and the delay damages our reputa- tion, and encourages the belief, artfully disseminated by the Brahmins and Moollahs, that ' all prophecies agree that the Etisclish rule is now to end !' So the deluded people rise here and there, and add to the anarchy and confusion. Wetrust that 20,000 soldiers are now embarkiug from England; but they cannot reach till September, and you may judge what has to be endured and done during the intervening months. There never was anything a hundredth j?. trt so serious in India before. This post, so far from being more arduous in future, will be more secure. Events here hare taken a wonderful turn. During peace Peshawur was an inces- sant anxiety. Now it is the strongest point in India. We have struck two great blows— we have disarmed our own troops, and raised levies of all the people of the country. The troops are confounded; they calculated on being backed by the people. The people are delighted, and a better feeling has sprung up between them and us in this enlistment than has ever been obtained before. I have also called on my old country, the Derag& t, and it is quite delightful to see how the call is answered. 2,000 horsemen, formerly in my army at Mooltan, are now moving on different points, according to order, to help us in this difficulty, and every post brings me remonstrances from chiefs as to why they have been forgotten. What fault have they oommitted that they are not sent for ? This is really gratifying. It is the heart of a people. It does one good all through. The Peshawu- rees had often heard that I had been grateful in getting rewards for my followers after the Mooltau war; but they were not pre- pared to see such a demonstration from the other end of the Soolimanee Mountains. It excites their better feelings, and will do them good too. All yesterday I was busy fitting out 700 horse and foot levies ( Mooltanee) to reinforce Nicholson at Jullundhur. How all the liberality shown to these Mooltanees after the war of 1818- 9 is now repaid, in the alacrity with which they rush to our side again to help us! They are now invaluable, and so glad to see me again; it is quite a pleasure in the midst of this howling wilderness." MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. TSOOPS FOE INDIA.— Capt T'nring's company of the 2d batta- lion Royal Artillery arrived at head- quarters, Woolwich, on Tuesday, having been recalled to prepare for service in India. Major- General Williams on Monday inspected the three batte- ries of Royal Artillery about to embark for the East. They were accordingly drawn up on Woolwich Common, and put through a field day's manoeuvres. The steam transport Hya& spes went down to " Woolwich by that night's tide, and moored alongside the Arsenal pier, for the embarkation of the above- named batte- ries, together with a troop of horse artillery. The 10th batta- lion, on account of its extra strength having been appointed to the garrison duties during the anuu& l inspection ef last week, was on Monday morning assembled on the barrack field and inspected by the Commandant, Major- Geueral Sir W. F. Wil- liams, and staff.— The freight ship Gloriana, Capt Toynbee, left Spithead on Wednesday for India with the following troops :— Cornet Adams, two sergeants, one corporal, and 17 privates of the 12th Royal Lancers; Ensign H. C. Talbot, one corporal and seven privates of the 43d Foot; Lieutenants Raymond and Birch, and two privates of the 44th Foot; 13 privates of the 3d batta- lion of the 60th Rifles; Major T. Benson, Capt J. Galbraith, Lieutenants E. G. Storey and A, Trigge, Ensigns J. W. Hughes, F. S. Rogers, J. H. Mardon, C. Richardson, T. Gambell, Assis- tant- Surgeon J. M'G. Laing, seven sergeants, four drummers, eight corporals, 104 privates of the 66th Foot; Captain C. Venables, three corporals, 51 privates of the 74th Foot; and Staff Assistant- Surgeon Duff, of the Madras Army, in medical charge.— Recruiting for the various Indian regiments is proceeding satis- factorily, the number of recruits joining the Indian depots at the Provisional Battalion, Chatham, being at the rat • of nearly 200 weekly, which number it is confidently expected will be con- siderably increased in consequence of the reduction of the standard. In consequence of she large influx of recruits into Chatham orders have been issued for the officers in command of the several depots at that garrison to send a periodical return to the Horse Guards, for the purpose of showing the number of men fit for embarkation at the end of each month, taking care that each man, before he is returned as fit to embark for India, has been instructed in the Enfield rifla exercise, with which weapon the whole of the Indian troops are to be armed.— Considerable activity prevails at the head- quarters of the Royal Engineers' establishment, Brompton Barracks, Chatham, in consequence of the War Department having decided on sending out four companies of the Royal Sappers and Miners, numbering about 500 officers and men, to India, for the purpose of carrying on the siege operations intended to be undertaken chiefly in the Beisgal Presidency. The companies of Royal Engineers ai pre- sent named to e. nbark for India are the 4th, 10th, 11th, and 21st, in addition to which the companies now stationed at the Cape of Good Hope, Malta, and Ceylbn, will also receive orders to proceed from those stations to India. It appears frem a summary given in Grindlay's Home News for India that the total number of ships which sailed for that country with troops from the 18th of June to the end of Au- gust was 67. The number of troops carried by those vessels was 24,145. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. THE DRAMA. HAYMAEKET THEATRE.— Mrs. Catherine Sinclair, a lady well known in the United States, made her first appearance on Mon- day night as Beatrice, in " Much Ado About Nothing." With a commanding figure aud a handsome and expressive counte- nance, she has every personal advantage conducive to success in high comedy, while her manner bespeaks intelligence and re- finement. We understand that she has Hot long adopted the histrionic profession, and certainly her impersonation is rather that of the ladylike amateur than of the experienced artist. If she does not exhibit all the vivacity of which the witty Beatrice is susceptible, she is, at any rate, free from faults of exaggera- tion. She was favourably received by the audience. ADELPHI THEATEE.— The performance of " Black- Eyed Su- san" at this house, " in remembrance" of Mr. Douglas Jeirold, seems to have « iven a new impetus to Mr. T. P. Cooke, who, after a long and honourable repose, re- appeared on the occasion in the immortal character of William. Two engagements at the Haymarket followed that memorable event, and on Monday night he re- appeared at the Adelphi as a newly- established artist. He still remains as much William as ever, but his fresh career is not to be confined to this single part. " The Pilot" is already announced at the foot of the bills, with Mr. T. P. Cooke as Long Tom Coffin. PRINCESS'S THEATRE.— The brief series of Italian operas at this theatre was brought to a termination on Saturday week, Grisi, Alboni, aud Mario appearing for the third time together in " II Trovatore." Every nook and corner were occupied, and hundreds who could not obtain a glimpse of the stage were satisfied with listening to the performances of the glorious triad. Of course the names of such artists as Grisi, Alboni, and Mario in Verdi's popular opera are sufficient to account for any amount of excitement and any crowd. The band and chorus, to say the most of them, were indifferent; the costumes were neither new nor always appropriate ; the mine en scene anything but satis- factory. In a short, and, as it were, improvised season, how- ever, the public could not expect the efficiency and completeness of the legitimate Italian opera- houses, and consequently were prepared to overlook all short- comings on the score of the exe- cution and the getting- up. The general success of the specula- tion cannot be doubted, and it is probable that, following the example of the manager of Her Majesty's Theatre, Mr Willert Beale, thedirector, will add a few rere- nights to his regular season. FATAL ACCIDENT TO ADMIRAL HAWTAYNE.— We regret to hear that this gallant officer fell off the South Pier at Lowestoft on Thursday, aud sustained a concussion of the brain, which proved fatal. He attained flag- rank in November, 1841. He saw much service during the war. DEATH OF REAE- ADMIEAL WILLIAM HENDEY.— This cal lant officer, on the retired list of 1851, died on the 6th inst, at Buckland, near Portsmouth, at the advanced age of 80 years. DEATH OF REAE- ADMIEAL DANCE.— Another flag- officer on the retired list of 1847 is deceased, William Towusend Dance, a captain of 1834. He entered the navy May 16, 1806, as mid- shipman on board the Triumph, 74, Captain Sir Thomas Master- man Hardy. DEATH OF ADMIEAL MAURICE.— Retired Rear- Admiral James Wilkes Maurice died at Stonehouse on Friday, the 4th of Sep- tember, in the 83d year of his age. This gallant veteran was born on the 15th of February, 1775, at Devonport, and was placed on the books of the Monkey in 1784, but did not embark until August, 1789. MOVEMENTS OF SHIPS OF WAS.— The screw steam- vessel Rifleman, 8, Lieutenant- Commander Henry Christian, fitted out at Woolwich in October, 1853, for station on the south- east coast of America, returned thither on Saturday week to be paid off. The paddlewheel steam- sloop Prometheus, 5, Commander Chas. W. Hope, also arrived at Woolwich on the same day from the west coast of Africa, and was admitted into basin to return stores and preparo for being paid off.— The screw steam- ship Agamemnon, 91, Master Commander Noddal, with the Atlantic Telegraph cable, steamed on Thursday week from Plymouth Sound into Hamoaza, and is now in dock at Devonport.— The Conqueror, 101, screw two- decker, Captain H. Yel- verton, C. B., left Spithead, on Sunday last, ou her re- turn to the squadron o* Admiral Lord Lyons, G. C. B., in the Mediterranean. She took a number of supernumeraries and boys for distribution by the Admiral.— The screw gun- boats Jassur, Lieutenant Scott, and Jasper, Lieutenant Pym, left Spit- head for Cuba on Saturday week.— The Termagant, 24, steam- frigate, Lieutenant C. C. A. Kane in command, arrived at S pit- head on Monday from the West Indies. She left Bermuda on the 4th of August with 24 invalids from sundry regiments, under the command of Lieutenant Collins, of the 26th Foot.— The Per- severance steam troop- ship, Commander M'Donald, arrived at Spithead on the night of Monday, from the West Indies.— The Scotia, steam- transport, sailed on Tuesday from Portsmouth with a portion of the 72d Highlanders for India. APPOINTMENTS.— Mates: James W. Morris, to the Buzzard; G. W. Bloxsome, to the Valorous; M. E. Porter, to the Conflict; R. B. Nicholetts, to the Styx.— Midshipmen: B. G. A. Belson, to the Diadem ; Ernest Piers, to the Ganges. PEOMOTIONS.— Commander R. Moorman, Commander A. F. R. De Horsey, and T. D. A. Fortescue were on Wednesday pro- moted to the rank of captain.— Lieuts : E. T. Hind, E. Webber, and T. B. Lethbridge were promoted to the rank of commander. A MAN WILFULLY SHOT.— A charge was preferred at the Lincoln magistrates' meeting, the other day, by James Wright, a farmer, residing at North Scale, near Lincoln, against a young man named William Holland, a farmer and publican, living at Kirton, in Nottinghamshire, for felony. The charge was that the defendant had stolen a quantity of clover, and, after hear- ing the evidence, the bench dismissed the case, ordering the plaintiff to pay the costs incurred. On Saturday evening week the plaintiff and defendant in that action returned from Newark market together, and Wright being rather the worse for liquor, dared Holland to fetch any more clover from the same field out of which the clover was taken before, and the ownership of which clover was disputed. The same evening Holland, disre- garding all the threats of Wright, went to the field, and there met Wright, who shot him in the legs. Mr Lacy, surgeon, Newark, was immediately sent for, and he found that the in- juries he had received were of so serious a character that the amputation of one leg was necessary. Whilst undergoing the operation, or soon afterwards, Mr Holland expired. EXTENSIVE FIRE.— Yesterday week an extensive fire hap- pened in the premises belonging to Mr J. R. Agland, situate at No. 11, Holywell- row, Worship- square, Shoreditch, which de- stroyed a vast amount of valuable property. The Royal Society's escapes, under the command of Mr Inspector Baddeley, and the parish engines attended, as well as those of the London Brigade, from Whitecross- street, Watling- street, Jeffrey- square, and Far- ringdon- street. A supply of water was procured, from which the firemen at once went to work, but in spite © f their exertions the fire could not be subdued until a very serious amount of pro- perty was destroyed. FIRE AT RATCLIFFE.— A serious fire occurred on Monday at Bowles's Wharf, Ratcliffe. Bowles's Wharf alone covered an immense area of ground, on which were erected many lofty warehouses, divided into different fiats, and these were ad- joined, or nearly so, by the warehouses on Cock- hill. The fire- men, for hour after hour, laboured most perseveringly, but it was late in the evening before the fire was entirely subdued. THE LATE SUICIDE IN THE HAYMAEKET.— On Tuesday evening an inquest was held in the board room of Charing- cross Hospital, before Mr Langham, deputy coroner for Westminster, on view of the body of Mr John Richard Wiseman, aged 32, a musician, and late organist at Reigate Church, who was found at an early hour on Saturday morning week in an insensible state in the Haymarket, suffering from the effects of a narcotic poison, of which he died almost immediately after his admission to the above institution. Mr James M'Donald, of Berners- street, Oxford- street, deposed that the deceased was his brother- in- law. He saw him last alive about six weeks back at Reigate. He was not aware of any circumstance that preyed upon the mind of his unfortunate relative, except the declining state of his ( deceased's) mother's health. He was a single gentleman, and his means were ample. Police constable John Smith, 119, C division, said that between two and three o'clock on Saturday morning he was doing duty in the Haymarket, when he observed the deceased stagger and fall. Witness found two phials on his person, which had contained laudanum. Mr Bennett, the house surgeon of the hospital, said the deceased died soon after his admission— no doubt from the effects of opium. The jury, after some consulta- tion, returned a verdict " Died from the effects of opium, but how it was administered there was not sufficient evidence to show." FALL OF TWO OCCUPIED HOUSES.— About a quarter to twelve on last Sunday night the party wall and chimney stack of the houses No. 4 and 5, Artillery- passage, Bishopsgate, fell, taking with them the roof and floors of No. 5, and part of the roof aud floors of No. 4. No. 5 was in the occupation of Godfrey Phillips, his wife, three children, and two young women named Rose Jewell and Mary Tagg. The wife of Phillips, who was in bed about half- past eleven o'clock, heard a cracking of the wall and called to her husband below, He ran up to the second floor, and while looking at the wall himself heard a singular rumbling, apparently in the shop. Phillips instantly desired his wife to leave the place, regardless of her dress, and having succeeded in arousing the girls and his neighbour at No. 4, he carried his children out of the premises and lodged them at No. 3. He then gave information of the danger at the Chapel- yard station, and was returning to the spot when he learned that the house had fallen. Samuel Moss and his wife, at No. 4, anxious to save their money and valuables, stayed too long, and while taking those things from drawers on the second floor, were precipitated, together with the ddbris, into the cellar, from whence they were dragged by some of the police, most miraculously escaping with a few bruises. A great deal of property is buried in the ruins, i with about £ 150 in money. Inspector Price and Sergeant Gillis, ; connected with the examination of lodging- houses, were quickly on the spot, and the former gave directions for the immediate security ef the adjoining premises. MANCHESTER AND LIVERPOOL AGRICULTURAL SHOW. On Thursday the tenth annual show of this society took plaoe in a field at Warrington, near the railway station. Although the morning was, as regards weather, rather lowering and threaten- ing rain, none but a slight shower now and then fell, and the numerous visitors did not suffer from it in any way. The show of live stock was, on the whole, thin, but of excellent quality ; the same may be said of the daad stock.

POULTEY.— Of poultry the show was about as usual. IMPLEMENTS.— Among the implements exhibited there were none calling for special note, except a newly registered chaff- cutter, manufactured by Messrs Richmond, Chandler, and Norton, of Salford. It is of a medium size, mounted on an iron frame. The feed is brought by the much- appreciated tooth- rollers, which renders choking impossible. Its motion is called the " reverse motion." Obtained the prize, £ 4. Colonel Wilson Patten, M. P., distributed the prizes in a booth erected for the purpose on the ground. The exhibition ground was densely thronged after two o'clock. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. INHUMAN CONDUCT OF THE PARISH AUTHORITIES OF BBE- * MONDSEY.— At the Southwark police court, on Monday, Henry Marshall, a poor, miserable- looking, half- starved old rnau, was brought before Mr Burchato, charged with wandering about the streets on Saturday night week, having no home to go to. Police- constable 143 M said that about twelve o'clock on Saturday night the prisoner came to the Bermondsey police- station, aud told the inspector on duty that he was starving, and that he had no home. By direction of Sergeant Gardiner he took him to the Bermoudsey workhouse for shelter and food, but the authorities refused to admit him, or give liia the much- desired refresh- ments which he stood in need o?. The poor man then told witness he was actually starving, when no took some money from his own pocket and laid it out in food for him. He also returned with him to the station- house, where he was locked up. — Mr Burcham asked whether he had had any food si nee?— Inspector Mackintosh replied that he had been supplied ac- cording to the regulations.— Mr Kurcham: This is tne same workhouse the authorities of which bluntly refuse to take in or give food to the casual poor, although they may be in a state of starvation. I have had occasion before to complain of the con- duct of these authorities, which appears so brutal that it is a disgrace to humanity. They refuse to shelter the casual poor; ana the clerk of the guardians, who was here a few days ago, actually had the coolness to ask me to point out the act of Parliament which compelled them to do so. I have uo doubt that it is the order of the parish authorities which is so delibe- rately acted on. The destitute poor of Bermondsey are actually refused admission iuto a workhouse belonging to the parish, and driven to apply at another workhouse, where the autho- rities have better instincts of humanity than those in Bermond- sey think proper to act upon ; the consequence of which is that the burden is thrown upon those parishes unjustly. I have here a case before me of a man without shelter and food, aud in a state of starvation, being brutally thrust from the doors. He is thus compelled to seek shelter at the station- house, where the constables with great humanity supplied him food from their own pockets. I wish to avoid as much as possible making any harsh observations on any individual either in his private or public capacity, but I must say the conduct of the parish au- thorities of Bermondsey is most discreditable and iuhuman in the extreme. It is well known that persons seen wandering about and sleeping in the open streets may be taken up and sent to prison as rogues and vagabonds. The conduct of these parish authorities actually drives these poor people into the streets, so that they maty be sent to prison instead of being provided with food and shelter. I shall not convict in such a case, therefore the prisoner is discharged. I must, however, remark, that the conduct of Mr Rayner, the master of St Olave's workhouse, is quit ® different, as he generally admits many poor creatures re- fused by Bermondsey, which does infinite credit to his humanity. On Thursday Mr Cornwall, clerk to the Board of Guardians of Bermondsey, attended at Southwark police court, and asked Mr Burcham, in rather an imperious tone, whether the remarks imputed to him in the reports in the papers had been made or not. Mr Burcham said : In the first place, this very morning, a poor half- starved female, named Mary Satchell, was brought before me, being found by the police wandering about Ber- mondsey without shelter, and not having the means to procure foad. The constable took her to the workhouse in Bermondsey, and represented her case to the man at the door, when he refused to give her cither food or lodging. This poor woman has been brought before me, and she found the shelter and food she required at the station- house. The other morning an old man 76 years of age was brought before me under similar cir- cumstances, being in want of food and shelter, and actually in a state of starvation. He was taken to Bermondsey workhouse, and his case represented to the person at the door, but both shelter and food were refused Mm. The constable in that instance actually purchased food for the poor- man out of his own pocket. Another constable told me at the time that a night or two prior he took a miserable creature to Ber- mondsey workhouse, and, being refused food and shelter, he supplied the poor creature with sufficient to prevent starvation from his own pocKet. I have no reason to believe that these statements are untrue, therefore, believing that they are true, I have no hesitation in saying that the conduct of the authori- ties is most inhuman. That is all I wish to say.— Mr Cornwall: I want to know, sir, whether the statement appearing in the papers, and purporting to be made by you, is true or not ?— Mr Burcham: 1 am surprised at you in asking such a question, and I have no right to answer it.— Mr Cornwall: I am directed by the board of guardians to ask it.— Mr Burcham : Do they deny the charges imputed to them, or the other parish authorities?— Mr Cornwall: I can't answer that, sir; I only ask you whether what appears in the papers is true ?— Mr Burcham : From the sworn evidence before me I considered the conduct of the parish authorities of Bermonusey to be very iuhuman, but I don't think I said brutal. The facts adduced ware very bad indeed, aud called forth very strong remarks from me. This is all the answer I hare to give you.— After some further conversation, Mr Burcham called attention to Mr Cornwall's disrespectful tone and manner, aud said, if he had complaints to make, thev must be made in a proper manner. He afdded, that the facts " before him showed that . the conduct of the Bermondsey authorities was inhuman, and he hoped he should list have again to allude to the subject. Mr Cornwall theu left the court. A TICKET- OF LEAVE MAN.— At the Thames police court, on Tuesday, a ruffianly- l( » okiug fellow, named William Freeuian, was brought before Mr Yardley, charged with being concerned in a robbery, and assaulting MrHymau Hyams, in the employ of Mr Simon Moses, clothier, in the Whitechapel- road.— Mr Hyams said he left his wife at the door to look after the goods exposed for sale, when he heard a c. rv of '' Thief, thip. f!" anH tn. REWARD OF TRUE COUEAGE.— A handsome silver watch with a suitable inscription on it, and purchased by subscription, has been presented to George Bate, the young man whose courageous conduct in saving the life of a lady whilst bathing at Bude, Cornwall, was recorded a short time since. VOCALISTS OFF THE STAGE.— A local paper says— Last week a party of well known opera singers, comprising among others, Mdlle Piccolomini, Signor Belletti, and Signor Giuglini, visited Bristol, and no small wonder and amusement was caused to the Bristolians from the fact that Giuglini, " the great tenor, he is called, passed his time daily in flying a kite with three tails on the downs at Clifton. The talented singers were surprised to hear that the reception of the Russian guns presented by Lord Pantcure to " the city of merchant princes" had been a very cold affair, and they determihed to celebrate the event in a rather singular fashion. Giuglini purchased a large quantity of fireworks, and one night, after the theatre was closed, Mdlle Piccolomini, and Mdlles Fazio and Poma, Signori Belart, Bel- letti, Beneventano, Rossi, Giuglini, and Mercuriali, repaired to the summit of Brandon- hill, where, in close propinquity to the guns, they amused themselves with letting off the fireworks aud singing. They brought their impromptu gala to a conclusion by singing " God save the Queen." Many of the inhabitants of the neighbourhood were of course awakened, and drawn to the spot by the proceedings. The efforts of the vocalists were said to greatly exceed their most brilliant displays when on " the boards." ROYAL SUEBEY GARDENS.— On Saturday week the season at the Royal Surrey Gardens was brought to a close, M Jullien, who promised that a pyrotechnic display on a scale of unusual magnificence would light the season out, redeemed his promise The arrangements were entrusted to iVr. Southby, whose skill in this department of art is unrivalled; and it was generally acknowledged that since the great public display which was given to commemorate the peace, nothing was seen to equal the variety and brilliance of this spectacle. The concert was well sustained by Madame Borchardt and Miss Poole, THE COENISH FISHEEIES.— The Cornish fishermen have been lately most successful in plying the pilchard fishery, two Gorran Haven seines shot off Hemmick having realised ahout 800 hogs- heads of fine fish, aud several of the drift boats have taken from 8,000 to 13,000 fish per boat, the great bulk of which have been saved for the foreign market, though large quantities were re- tailed at 2s 6d per basket or Is 3d per hundred. The packets from the Irish coast to Plymouth report the bays on the west coast as literally teeming with shoals of pilchards, and the boat- men all along the coast as busy day and night in netting and landing their cargoes. The mackerel fishery is also brisk on the South Devon coast, many thousands of fine fish having been captured during the past week. At Budleigh Salterton and all along the intermediate coast to Plymouth, numbers of these fine fish have been retailed on the coast as low as Is per dozen, but the great bulk has been sent off by rail to Bristol, Bath, and even London. FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE GEEAT WESTERN RAILWAY.— On Monday a very shocking accident happened on a branch of the Great Western Railway, between Southall and Brentford. It appears that since the construction of the branch line in ques- tion an immense quantity of trucks have been employed on the tramrail for the purpose of carrying earth to form the embank- ment. In this occupation William Corderoy and George Cor- deroy, father and son, were employed, the former as driver, and the latter to uncouple the trucks at the stations at which the earth was to be thrown. The son, about 18 years of age, con- trary to the caution of his father, was stooping to uncouple the trucks, when one of the wheels tripped him up, and he fell in such a position that several of the trucks went over him; his cries bringing the distracted father to his assistance, and also many other men employed upon the line. On being extricated he was found to be in a frightfully mutilated condition— both his thighs and legs were broken, and one of his arms was nearly torn from his body. He was conveyed in a light cart to St George's Hospital, but was scarcely laid in the surgery before he expired. THE SUICIDE IN FAEEINGDON- STEEET.— On Monday Mr Wm. Payne held an inquest at the White Swan Tavern, Far- ringdon- street, on the body of Mr John Winfield, aged 52, the proprietor of a coffee- house in the same street, who committed suicide by hanging himself on Sunday last. Mr G. A. Frisby, a laceman, deposed that on Saturday night last the deceased came home about one o'clock. He had partaken of his supper along with witness, and during the day Mr Roe served him with a summons to appear at Guildhall that day, to answer for abusing his wife. His daughter Mary- Ann got up in the morning, and said that she was going to make the breakfast, and asked him to come down. Before he had time to dress himself the daughter eame again, and said that her father was not in the bedroom, and requested him to hasten down. He did as requested, and on going into the cellar he found him hanging by the neck to a rope. He was cut down, and Mr Ross was sent for, who said that he had been dead about three hours. He had been in prison for abusing his wife, and was liberated on Friday week. He believed that excessive drinking had caused him to do what he had done. When the last summons was served he made no par- ticular observation more than that he expected it; and he went out in the company of Mr Roe. Charlotte Sumner said that the deceased when sober was very quiet; but when intoxicated very violent, so that his family were in bodily fear. He had been in custody for assaulting his wife. She had never during ten months seen him sober for a week. Police- constable 824 of the City force said that he had frequently seen deceased drunk at two night houses near Fleet- street, in the company of prostitutes. Other evidence having been given, the jury returned a verdict of Tem- porary Insanity. A MAN AND HORSE KILLED BY LIGHTNING.— We regret to have to report that the thunderstorm of Friday evening did not leave every district to which it extended so scathless as this. Among the hills it raged for some time with terrific fury, and in the neighbourhood of Pardshaw a man and horse were struck dead by lightning. This casualty occurred about six o'clock in the evening, and the name of the unfortunate man was John Pearson, a shoemaker, who also cultivated a small farm. He was employed at the time leading corn with a horse and cart. Previous to the occurrence he was observed by a person who was walking along at a short distance in advance. After the flash of lightning and the accompanying clap of thunder had passed, this person became aware that the horse and cart were not following him as before, and on turning round he perceived both the horse and the man lying on the ground. On going up to the spot he discovered that life was quite extinct. Death must have been instantaneous.— Cumberland Pacquet. A BOAT CAPSIZED IN THE MEESEY.— CLIFFOED'S APPA- RATUS.— A few days ago a boat belonging to the Australian emigrant ship Ebba Brahe was putting oft" from the shore to return to the vessel, which was at anchor in the stream, when she capsized, and the whole of her crew was thrown into the water. The accident was seen from the Ebba Brahe, and some | men jumped into one of the quarter boats, which was fitted with Clifford's patent lowering gear, and were in au instant lowered : down, and the poor fellows' lives saved. It is but justice to cry of " Thief, thief!" and was in- formed that a pair of trowsers kad been stolen from the door. He went out and saw the thief running away with the trowsers in his hand. He pursued him, and had nearly come up with him when the prisoner made his appearance, put his leg out, and threw him heavily on the ground. The prisoner was about to strike hisn with a stick, and was prevented doing so by the bystanders, who interfered and took him into custody. He should have overtaken the thief aud secured him, and obtained re- possession of the property, if the prisoner had not stopped him.— Roche, the gaoler of the court, said the prisoner was for- merly one of the most dangerous thieves in the district, and had been transported.— The prisoner said he had nothing to do with the robbery.— Mr Hyams said that similar robberies were of frequent occurrence, and that the trowsers stolen were valued at 18s.— Mr Yardley : I shall commit the prisoner for trial for steal- ing a pair of trowsers: aud it is right that the prisoner and others should know that a person assisting in the escape of a thief is to be considered a participator in the offence.— The pri- soner was formally committed. THE MUEDEE IN THE HAMPSTEAD- EOAD,— At the Maryle- bone court, on Tuesday, Cornelius Denny, a smith, living in Crescent- place, Euston- square, who has been twice remanded, was again brought up, charged with having caused the death of Galleo Benzonelli, a Swiss, by stabbing him with a knife while in the service of Mr Joseph Barrett, confectioner, No. 17, Adam- row, Hampstead- road. In addition to what has been already detailed, the following evidence was taken :— Thomas Shad- wick, a? ed 18, residing at 8, Denton- street, said that he saw the prisoner ana the deceased in the street. The prisoner was sparring at the deceased and struck him. The deceased raised a stick, which he held up as if intending to strike the prisoner. The latter said, " Let him come, I have a knife." Witness saw a knife open in his hand, Witness did not see the prisoner stab the deceased, but he heard the latter exclaim, " I am stabbed." The prisoner walked away, and the deceased went into the shop. — Mr Vincent, Jackson, house surgeon at the University College Hospital, said that deceased died about nine o'clock on the even- ing o? the 25th ult. He died of inflammation of the peritoneum, caused by the wound - Police- const able Handley, S 363, said he was at the hospital when the deceased was *, iven over, at id that he took down his dying statement, which was made in French. The prisoner was present.— Mr Broughton : Did the prisoner make any remarks ?— Witness : Yes, sir. Sergeant Miliard, who was present, asked the prisoner if he had any question to ask the dying man. Prisoner replied, " No ; but I am guilty. I stabbed him, but I did not stab him in- Ahe street." Deceased remarked that he was stabbed in the street. Millard then asked the prisoner if he had any otherquestiontoask thedeceased. The prisoner remarked he only wished to ask the deceased if he would shake hands with him. The deceased said that, t hough he had brought him to the state he was in, ho would forgive him if God would forgive him.— Sergeant Edwards, 8 21, produced the knife dropped in the street by the prisoner, which was stated to be the instrument with which the wound was inflicted. He also produced the stick which was in the possession at* the deceased when he was stabbed.— Mr Broughton said it was a most serious charge for a man to draw a kcifeand stab a man, and that he would commit him ou the charge of wilful murder. The prisoner was then fully committed for trial. A FACT RELATING TO THE POTATO DISEASE.— It is weli known that most » f the growing potatoes began to show signs of disease in the early part of August, and in other yesrs the black spot no sooner appeared than the blackened top followed in a day or two. This year, however, we have had the spotted or blackened leaf for a month or snore, and yet the tops are not quite dead; but there are several instances where lateral green shoots are making their appearance. This shows that dry weather is the most congenial to the potato plant, and that when the cycle of drier summers return the potato disease will leave us. THE PUBLIC HEALTH.— The deaths registered in London, which rose in the previous week to 1,177, declined in the week that ended on Saturday, September 5th, to 1,084, of which 537 are deaths of males, 547 those of females. The births of 790 boys and 784 girls, in all 1,574 children, wore registered in London. MADAME TUSSAUD'S EXHIBITION.— A highly interesting ad- dition has just been completed and placed in the great room of this establishment; it represents Wiliiam Penn. This figure has been taken from a celebrated bust by Oudon, and other authentic sources. We understand it is intended to form part of 5a group of American benefactors. REMAEKABLE SUICIDES.— Two brothers, named William and Henry Adams, sons of John Adams, a cabinet- maker, residing in Devonshire- street, Sheffield, have been found drowned uuder singular circumstances. From inquiries made by the police, it appears that on Wednesday week Henry Adams, who is 15 years of age, had a quarrel witk his father, who, it is alleged, either struck or pushed him, and angrily told him to leave the shop. This was about four o'clock in the afternoon, and shortly after- wards the youth went to the Victoria railway station to " carry a parcel for some friends. He returned home, refused to partake of tea, and, having watched a favourable opportunity for speak- ing to his sister, told her he should not again be seen alive, and went away. He was not afterwards seen alive. On the follow- ing day ( Thursday week) about five o'clock, William Adams, who is 21 years of age, also left home, as is alleged, shortly after having had an altercation with his father. He went with £ 2 to pay a poor- rate, and instead of returning home with the receipt forwarded it through the post, with an intimation that he too should never be again seen alive. On receiving this intimation on Friday week Mrs. Adams reported the absence of William, the elder son, at the police office, but, strangely enough, said nothing at that time of the younger son, who had gone away on Wednesday week. Nothing more was heard of the brothers until Moadaj morning, when the body of the younger son, Henry, whose absence had not been at first reported, was found in the canal just at the outskirts of the town. On Tuesday morning the body of the elder son Wril! iam was found floating in the same canal about half a mile further from Sheffield than the place where his brother was found. An inquest will be held, when the circumstances will be investigated. ACCIDENT ON THE SOUTH EASTERN RAILWAY.— On Monday afternoon an accident took place at the Margate station of the South Eastern Railway. The excursion train from the Brick- layers' Arms station arrived at Ramsgate shortly after half- past twelve, and a few minutes after that hour the Margate portion of the train, consisting of four open excursion carriages, left the Ramsgate Station for Margate. Ariout ten minutes- before one o'clock the train was observed in sight of the ticket platform, when Mr Barnett, the station master, perceived that the train had ascended the incline towards the station at this point, and was approaching at more than its ordinary velocity. He shouted to those whom he supposed to be in charge of the train to apply the breaks, but no response was made, and the train came dashing on into the station, and, having reached the end of the line, came in collision with the " buffers." As the train entered the station the occupants of the carriages were knocked against each other, many receiving severe contusions about the head, face, and various parts of the body. As soon as the confusion created by the collision had subsided, Mr Barnett, seeing that several of the passengers had received cuts about the head and face, lost no time in sending for Dr Hunter and Dr Hoffman, two surgeons of the town, who dressed the cuts and wounds of those who had been injured. It was speedily ascertained that, although the occurrence had created considerable consternation, no serious injuries had been sustained; some few of the passen- gers were, however, compelled to remain with their friends. On instituting an inquiry the inexplicable circumstance was brought to light, that the guard whose duty it was to have come through with the train left it at Ramsgate, aud there was no one to put the breaks on in the train.

[ TOWN EDITION.] THE T U E P. BETTING AT TATIEESALL'S. MONDAY, SEPT 7.— The Room was thinly attended, and settling the previous week's accounts seemed to engross the chief attention of those present. The St Leger betting was dull in the extreme, and the only transactions that came under our notice were 600 to 400 against Blink Bonny, BOO to 25 against Sir Colin, and 400 to 10 against Adamas. 0 to 4 on the field was offered currently throughout the afternoon, and 2 to 1 agaius Ignoramus— at 5 to 2 the latter would have had many supporters; 9 to 1 went begging against Tournament, and 20 to 1 was offered " bar three," Commotion, whose supporters stood out for 25 to 1. having the decided call after the Sussex horse. 70 to 40 was laid on each of the two favourites being in the first three, and 100 to § against Ignoramus being first and Tournament second. The handicaps for the Cesarewitch and Cambridgeshire were most favourably spoken of, especially the former, for which 25 to 1 was offered on the field without bringing out the friends of either of the two leading favourites, who took their position from City movements in the morning. The horses in most force at " the Corner" were Apathy and Martinet, against either of whom the bookmakers had no difficulty in laying to the extent of their " volumes." 1,000 to 100 would have been taken about William Day's lot, but 8 to 1 was the outside offer. Our quotations on the Doncaster Handicap are chiefly governed by what took place in the City, where in the early part of the day Melissa became such a great " pot" that she quite gave Tasmania the go- bye, and left off at 4 to 1 ( takers). Here 5 to 1 was offered on the field, and the north country mare had the call. THURSDAY, SEPT 10.— A very thin attendance, and only the following bets laid:— 65 to 40 against Blink Bonny, 100 to 50 against Ignoramus, 1,000 to 30 against Adamas, and 1,000 to 25 against Bashi Bazouk for the Leger. Except in Relapse, against whom the highest offer was 25 to 1, there was little change in the Cesarewitch prices GREAT YORKSHIRE HANDICAP. MONDAY. THURSDAY. Tasmania C. Peck 5 to 1 Melissa I.

There was nothing done to- day except on the two favourites for the St Leger; the large outlay on Ignoramus gave him the call of Blink Bonny, but he was not backed under 2 to 1, although at the close those odds were obtainable about Blink Bonny. None of the other favourites were in any request. Vedette for the Cup and Skirmisher for Doncaster Stakes would have been freely backed if layers could have been found.

I am anxious to ascertain the fact, in consequence of a person advertising in the York Herald in his name, with an address, 31, Duke- street, Bloomsbury- square, and who I think right to inform the public is a swindler. In he same paper of last week another notice appears, cautioning the public not to send any money except to Berkeley- terrace, Fleming- road. I fear they are one and the same party, fori perceive they give a fresh address after every great race, and by using Mr Davies's name I doubt not reap a good harvest,— Yours, & c, A VICTIM.

SIR : With reference to this very important and exciting meeting, which occupies four days of the ensuing week, I think I may with great propriety employ Vne stereotyped ex- pression, that " within the memory of the oldest inhabitant" the Metropolis of Northern racing has never offered such an attraction to the sporting world as its present Great St Leger. The interest of the latter race has always been commensurate with that of the Derby, although the quality of the candi- dates may vary one year with the other, still, on the present occasion, the celebrity acquired by Blink Beany in her double victory at Epsom and the formidable pretensions of herun- conquered opponent Ignoramus give to the event a degree not only of European, but even of Asiatic interest, inasmuch as that in no quarter of the globe will the result be more anxiously regarded than in that to which all eyes are now directed, and whither so many thousands of England's sportsmen have recently departed to avenge the usurpation of her authority, and the atrocious murder and dishonour of her daughters; and although political disquisitions are here out of place, I may ven- ture thus far to state my belief that our forces in the East have no more cordial well wishers than racing men throughout the em- pire. But a truce to foreign matters, for a glance at the extent of the official list, and the bare thought of the high names to be found in it makes me fully sensible of the claims which I must make on your space, and the forbearance of your readers. And I trust that the suggestions thrown out for their consideration may not be without their value. The programme, it will be seen, embraces no fewer than one- and- thirty appointments, and when it is considered that the added money amounts to seventeen hundred pounds no want of liberality can be attributed to the Corporation; and I am satisfied that the cards and return lists will bespeak an anxiety on the part of owners and trainers to realise the universal desire of rendering the Blink Bonny year ( for such cognomen it will pro- bably ever go by, whatever may be the result of the St Leger,) a memorable one in the annals of Doncaster and the Turf. Previous to entering into a discussion of the principal events, I cannot help calling attention to the careful maimer in which the bill of fare is drawn up, thereby exhibiting a favourable contrast to that of York. Each day here has its proper modicum of sport, weight- for- age races, handicaps, and two year old stakes being distributed in equal proportions, whereby there is a chance for everything, and the mind is not confused by the number of engagements of the same kind which were recently run off in such rapid succession on Knavesmire. Tuesday's card will be headed, as usual, by the oldFitzwilliam which, after having been changed to a handicap for some years past, very properly returns to its pristine form of a weight- for- age race— a sine qua non, I understand, upon which the noble heir to the title after which the stake is named, accepted for the first time the office of steward. The entry closes the night before running. The Champagne Stakes has thirty- nine nominations, abeut an average entry, but its interest will hardly come up to that of many years I could raention, inasmuch as that Cock- a- doodle- doo will not lea/ e his roost, and the " dark" division contains the names of only two talked- of celebrities, viz, Eclipse and Dum- fries, The starters, I believe, will include Brother to Mary Gopp, Syllabus, Excelsior, Brother to Bird on the Wing, Sister to Ellington, Eclipse, Dumfries, Hepatica. Carmel, Lord of Lorn, Volta, Coxwold. andThe Ancient Briton. Of this lot three- fourths have been out, and itis to be presumed displayed', their true colours. This circumstance, therefore, ought to bring the race within a narrow compass, as we have seen no " form" like that of Sister to Ellington and Lord of Lorn. But the position of Ecli/. se in the Derby market would indicate he had " put his stable companions in the shade" at Finsion, therefore I would re- commend your readers to keep their eye upon him and another " dark" Derby candidate, Dumfries; although at present, from knowing nothing about either of the two latter, I must stand on public running, which points to Sister to Ellington as likely to repeat her brother's success of 1855. The Filly Stakes closed with seventeen subscriptions, out of which Sillica, one of Lord Clifden's, Fascine, Terrific, the Eller- dale's dam filly, and Rita are likely to show; and again the star of Admiral Harcourt may be in the ascendant, though I must confess to a strong penchant for Hydromel, the beautiful winner of the Chesterfield. The Glasgow Stakes has a dozen colts engaged, including Gin, Star of the East, Night Ranger, Dumfries, Lord of Lorn, York, The Cheery Chap, and Pioneer. Whether defeated or not in the Champagne, The Lord of Lorn ought to secure this stake, but in case of default The Cheery Chap may cheer up his backers. The Great Yorkshire Handicap, it is to be hoped, may present a favourable contrast to the wretched farce exhibited in " The Ebor," at York, although we can recall more than one occasion when the acceptances have exhibited a more flattering average than thirty out of seventy- eight. This falling off may chiefly be attributed to the great mistake made in bringing out the weights so long before the time; and we need only refer to the single case of Hobgoblin, who of course was handicapped at 4st 10lb on the strength of his performance in the Goodwood Stakes, which was subsequently shown to be altogether a mistake by his running at Brighton and his brace of victories at Lewes and Reading within a week almost of the publication of the Don- caster Handicap !— in fact, as I heard. remarked by one of our leading Turf authorities at the time, the " cast off" would prove a hobgoblin to all the handicapper's care and skill. As most of the large stables, however, are likely to send nu- merous drafts to Doncaster, we may reckon upon a field that will suit both spectators and bookmakers. Those that will run, I take it, will be Neville, Mary, Warlock, Poodle, Melissa, Tame Deer, Tasmania, Bird in the Hand, Alma, General Williams, Cap- tainPowlett, Relapse, General Bosquet, and Hobgoblin. Of these the first- named showed he was getting into form at York, but there cannot have been time enough for him since to have im- proved sufficiently to beat good three year olds. ' Mary has the same weight that she won the Doncaster Handicap here with in the spring, and although her opponents on this occasion are of a better class it would by no means surprise me to witness a repetition of that performance. Warlock, I expect, will not forget his last two journeys for some little while. The distance is scarcely far enough for Poodle. Melissa is best in of anything according to her last year's running, but that form she has not shown this season in public, though said to maintain it at home; and under such circumstances I must leave your readers to form their own conclusions. Tame Deer has won so often, carrying two stone more on him than he will bave now, that he cannot help being formidable. Tasmania ran very respectably in the Ebor, and is said to have been doing well since, but I think the weight must prove a stopper to her success here. Of the remainder, Hobgoblin and General Bosquet are alone entitled to consideration, and as the obstacle which prevented the former's starting at York is not likely to occur here, I confess I think he may prove something more than a Hob" goblin to the lot; and to him and Tame Deer I leave the race. The Doncaster Plate has SO animals weighted for it, of which Culcavy, Augury, and Miss Harkaway read as well on paper as anything. The Revival Plate, another alteration from a handicap to a weight- for- age race, has twenty- two nominations, including Black Tommy, whose encounter with the two year olds, of which there are no fewer than fourteen, will be highly inte- resting, and as the " darkey" in being allowed 71b for a maiden has so much the best of the weights, he ought on this occasion lose i his claim to similar allowances hereafter. After him John Osborne's stable is most to be feared. With a small Selling Stake, to be entered for hereafter, we shall have finished the first afternoon's amusement. Wednesday is the all important day when the great question which at present agitates the rasing public will be set at rest, and the hopes and fears of thousands relieved from the anxieties of months. Of modern St Legers, the present race far out- strips every other in importance from the fact of Blink Bouny having to meet an oppofteut, ignorant of defeat, a St Leger horse all over, and one who was backed for this very event in the highest quarters as a two year old. With " two such Riclimonds in the field," if I maybe par- doned the expression, it may seem extraordinary that they should meet with so much opposition; aud if the field was smaller even than in Van Tromp aad Voltigeur's years, it would excite no surprise; but the ill- luck which has befallen two " cracks" in succession more recently— viz, Rifleman and Elling. ton, and the immense number of double and treble event bets in which the mare and Ignoramus have been taken, all com- bine to pluck up the courage of the owners of other horses, who are thus determined that if the prize of victory is destined to fall to the lot of either of the " great guns," it shall not be attained without a struggle worthy of the occasion. Judging from our " advices," north and south, there will be a larger field than is generally anticipated, selected from the following :— Blink Bonsy Commotion Zuyder Zee Strathnaver Arsenal Drumour Comedian Ignoramus Imperieuse Anton Bashi Bazouk Tournament Sir Colin Adamas Oakball Pyrrhus the Second Wardermarske Lambourne Magnet. If it were only out of gallantry to the sex, Blink Bonny must head our remarks, and in dealing with her present chance many anxious considerations present themselves; but I shall discard the idle gossip of the hour, and confine myself to what you, Sir, in common with your readers, have seen of her in public. That Blink's performances at Epsom were without precedent all must admit, and the merit of them was height- ened by the very short preparation which she had had, and which would have been insufficient for nine horses out of ten that ran in the Derby. That she won the lat- ter race so easily as her friends assert, I cannot admit; but her victory was nevertheless a clever one, and as Epsom is generally a true line for Doncaster, she may be said to have all that were behind her there perfectly safe. This would leave us with only Ignoramus, Bashi Bazouk, and Sir Colin to carry on the discussion, and as, according to report, Igno- ramus is only a few pounds better than Skirmisher, and the latter has been far behind " Blinky," whenever they met, it is only fair to presume with the 5lb allowance for sex, that she ! ought still to be before Lord Milton's Richmond " crack;" ! and as Tournament is stated to be a stone better than Blue Jackets aud Sir Culiu's best form being several pounds ! below Gemma di Vergy's, your readers must coincide with me that upon paper the whole lot are disposed of. and that the St Leger is as virtually Blink Bonny's as was the Derby and Oaks. Although a delicate animal, I have reason to believe she has done all that her clever owner has required of her; and as the season of the year is so much in her favour, it would appear that nothing but the fatality which has of late operated against the favourites for the Leger can prevent her winning; for can any or. e doubt that market influences tempt her Gwner to forego the imperishable honour of winning the three great events- Derby, Oaks, and Leger with his world- renowaed favourite? Ignoramus has now fully developed in his powerful frame those proportions of excellence which he possessed as a two- year' old, and which arrested the attention of all good judges on his debut at York, whereupon, not being engaged in the Derby, he virtually became first favourite for the " Sellinger;" and few of the old school of bettors can, I thiak, recollect a similar occur' rence. With the form of this horse your readers are so familiar that I need not further allude to it than to say that he has beaten all comers, and is the one of all others adapted to the St Leger course, from his build, style of going, and tremendous stride. He comes from a most formidable stable, which pos- sesses at the present moment some of the best horses in training, Skirmisher and V6dette to wit. No mistake, therefore, about Ignoramus could have been, ought to have been, or, I believe, has been made, and with the perfect command, when not within 101b of being fit, he had of Anton, on whom John Day was very " sweet" when they met at Stockbridge, must naturally bring him so close to the mare as to reduce it almost to a question of stride. From the fact of having what is called a " bumble foot, fears have been anticipated that he would not stand, but these apprehensions are allayed by the horse's position in the market, and the Yorkshire nobility will perhaps never be better repre- sented on a Leger day than by Lord Milton and Ignoramus. Tournament comes next. No horso caused more disappoint- ment to his friends in the Derby than Tournament, and the old axiom of a " burnt child," & c, may haunt even those anxious to follow him here. That he has good speed, and can stay, notwithstanding the excuse made for his Epsom running upon the latter ground, surely no one will now be so presumptuous as todeuy; aud though manygood judges consider him deficient in that great desideratum iti a Leger horse— length— I cannot help thinking, from what we saw of him at Goodwood aud Lewes, that Tournament will prove a very formidable com- petitor, provided his nervous temperament is not upset by the " Yorkshire yoar" of the masses that will assemble on the occasion. Arsenal, but for the accident which befel him in returning home from Ascot, and which so materially hindered his Good- wood Cup preparation, would certainly have been a strong favourite, and after having defeated Strathnaver in the Vase, though the latter has not run so very " grandly " since, his racing qualifications cannot be denied. I think, however, it will be discovered that the Arsenal has not been " fitted out" with that efficiency it betokened in May, therefore I cannot support it on this occasion, uor can I pin any faith in Drumour. Sir Colin has been backed in a great many quarters, from the openly- expressed confidence of his owner iu his chance. In the spring he was very backward, and it must not be for. gotten he was collaterally almost as good as Gemma di Vergy at a mile. This fact, with his subsequent improvement, and with a man instead of a boy upon him, may make Sir Coliu run a good horse; but, from his shifty style of running which he has more than once exhibited in his races, I don't think you will have to compliment Mr Parr upon a repetition of his Saucebox victory. Strathnaver, since his York races, wherein he did not run within a stone of his Derby form, will probably starttoassist the mare, and in that capacity h£ may be useful, but his own chance aaay be set down as nil. Imp6rieuse has had a good deal of money recently laid out upon her, even since her wretched performances at York. Ac- cording to the Oaks running she ean have no chance with Blink Bonny, but having, on dit, improved very much lately, she will run, like Saucebox and Warlock, to take advantage of the " chapter of accidents," and no one wiil be more likely to profit by them than her clever jockey. Anton has been out so repeatedly that his chance cannot be a great one ; and as Ignoramus beat him so easily at Stockbridge, he ought to do so again, unless there be a strange alteration in his form. Adamas ran a very gams horse in the Derby, where he was not beaten more than his neck and shoulders from the wiHner. At Liverpool, literally without a gallop, he beat Augury very cleverly, much more so indeed than Tasmania did the other day when in full bloom, which should be encouraging to those who, like his owner, have trusted him with their money; and I fully expect he will not disgrace himself on this occasion, but prove that, but for his bad start and subsequent accident in the Derby, the confidence of his owner may have been realised. He will beat more than beat him. Bashi Bazouk is a good handicap horse, but with scarcely " class" enough to take a " degree" in this race. Commotion's running at Warwick brought hiin into notice, but the lot behind him there were so bad that I cannot think he will create a commotion by winning the Leger. Oakball's chance, at all times a remote one, cannot have been improved by his recent contentions with Fisherman and others; and Zuyder Zee, I do not expect will repeat the victories of his half- brothers Van Tromp and The Dutchman. Magnet has only run once in public, when a two year old, cn which occasion he did not exhibit such racing pretension as might have been expected from a half- brother to Muscovite. Pyrrhus the Second was a " standing dish" at " the Corner," throughout the winter amongst the thousand to fifteen division. He is a good- looking horse, I hear from those who witnessed his debut in the Maiden Piate at Lichfield on Monday last, but is not likely to earn distinction as a Leger winner. " Dawson's lot" may have a representative to swell the field in consequence of the large bet of six " monkeys" to four laid here last year on Ignoramus against it. In conclusion, your readers will psreeive that I have pkced before them, without favour or reserve, the public and private career of each animal likely to see the St Leger post; and it only remains for me to express my opiHion that having won the Derby and Oaks under such unparalleled eircuiastances, now that full justice has been done her, BLINK BONNY will carry off the St Leger also. The Municipal Stakes has six subscriptions, one of which is a " wrong nomination;" but I take it, only Sermon, Target, and Blanche of Middlebie will have their stakes paid, and Blanche will be as much my choice as, doubtless, that of your readers. The Corporation Plate had thirty- two subscribers, several of whom have already paid forfeit, Th6 top weights I have no fancy for at this season of the year, and in Rosa Bonheur, or Charles Peck's representative, the winner ought to be found. The Portland Piate is a very rich and interesting stake— too great a feature to be included in the Leger day, though at the same time it displays the liberal resources at the disposal of the committee. It was in this race last year that Saunterer so greatly distinguished himself by his performance with Lance. Now, however, he is little likely to repeat his victory, and al- though attempting to pick the winner here must be as difficult as finding a needle in a bottle of hay, yet the following lot, viz, Theodora, Olympus, Rosa Bonhesr, The Vigil, Proud Preston | Peg, Orianda, and the Ellerdale's dam filly, may include the name of " Fortune's favourite." The Stand Plate, a Sweepstakes for two's and three's, and the Queen's Guineas will terminate— and not too soon— this ever- to- be- remembered " St Leger day." Thursday's bill of fare is ample, containing, as it does, half a dozen races and a match, to several of which considerable in- terest is attached. The old legitimate Two Year Old Stakes lias an entry of twenty- eight, and as Longrange appears no more this season- and Sister to Ellington may have incurred a Champagne penalty, I conceive it will be safest to stand upon Mr Howard's or John Osborne's representative. The Eglinton Stakes for two's and three's, wherein the latter are this year placed on more equal terms with the young ones, can boast of an entry of forty- six, but the conditions of the race almost forbid me arriving at an accurate conclusion re. specting the result, as so many horses may in the interim incur penalties. In the absence of Vedette, who has a penalty, Saun- terer and Tournament are the most formidable of the old divi- sion, and from the crowd of youngsters that will oppose then^ Old Times, and the " intended" of Admiral Harcourt's pair have a fair chance of distinguishing themselves; but I shall look to an exciting ma'ch between the two old ones, and give the pas to Tournament— of course with the proviso that he does not win the " Sellinger," which victory would entail a 71b penalty. The Cleveland Handicap, the oldest in the list, had twenty- one subscribers, some of whom have paid forfeit. At present Eller- mire and East Langtou must be my " pick." The Scarborough Stakes look reduced to a match between Sir Colin and Comquot, and I shall stand on the former. A Handicap Sweepstakes for two year olds, has a score of two year olds engaged, and I am inclined to think that Scribbler or T. Dawson's representative may turn out the winner. The match between Saxony and iEolian Lrye, I hear, is likely to be compromised. Friday, with the Cup, Park Hill, and Doncaster Stakes, to say nothing of the Nursery, gives promise of as brilliant an after- noon's sport for a wind- up as ever was witnessed, in what I believe are falsely termed " the good old days " of Doncaster ; and although the entry for the Cup is not yet made, it is pretty generally believed that it will include Ignoramus, Blink Bonny, Gemma di Vergy, Adamas, Vedette, Black Tommy, Tournament, Skirmisher, and most of the best horses of the day, though to guess even at the winner, at the present period, would be out of the question. The conditions of the Doncaster Cup have been fre- quently altered, but at present are far from complete, and for the life of me I cannot see the justice of penalising the winners of the Ascot and Goodwood Cups, and allowing those of theAsoot Vase and Doncaster Cup to escape. The Sweepstakes of 200 sovs each, for three year olds, ought to fall to the lot of Drumour. The Doncaster Stakes has eighty- four subscribers, including nearly all the best three year olds of the year, but as the Leger winner has to carry 10lb extra, it is not probable, he or she, as the case may be, will put in a second appearance; to Skir- misher, therefore, as the next most formidable public horse, I must award this stake. The Partem Stakes, although it has not a very large sub- scription list, will, in all probability, test the correctness of " the great race" on Wednesday, and under any circumstances, unless there is a very great improvement in Imperieuse, I must give my vote to Blink Bonny. The Dee Stakes over the last mile would be well worth witness- ing, if it were to bring together Gemma Di Vergy, IgnoramSs, and V6dette. But three such " cracks" are scarcely likely to " come out" for such a paltry stake, and with all due respect for " Gemmy" I must declare in favour of the Two Thousand and Great Yorkshire winner. With a Post Match for 1,000 a side between those old competi- tors Lords Derby and Glasgow, in which seven of the former nobleman'stwo year olds are matched against eight of the latter's, the Town Plate, Scurry Stakes, and Nursery Plate, the racing will be Anally wound up, and the true position of the English Turf, as well as that of the Doncaster Meeting, be palpable to the meanest capacity.— Yours, & c, S# pt 11, 1857.

PREPARATIONS AT DONCASTER. [ PROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.] DONCASTER, FRIDAY. The town of Doncaster never outwardly presented less indica- tion of the throng of which it will so shortly be the scene. In- doors there is more activity, for the number of first- class lodgings already engaged exceeds that for many years past, whilst most of the hotels have their accommodation more than overdrawn*. Nevertheless, the number of private apartments to let must considerably exceed the requirements of the ordinary Turf visitors. We know of no special arrangements calling for lengthened notice. There has been the usual regard for the safety, convenience, and comfort of the public. Mr Superin- tendent Etches will be assisted by Mr John Forrester and Mr Goddard of Landon, aad the chefs tie police of some of the more important provincial towns throughout the kingdom. The sales of blood stock promise to maintain their accustomed interest^ Messrs Tattersall and Son, as already stated, have arranged for theirs to take place within the Salutation yard. This will be a great convenience both to buyer and seller, since there is ample space, and it will not subject the company to the annoyances of the throng proceeding to the course, especially on the Leger and Cup days. From what we can learn the yearlings gener ally to be offered for sale are unusu- ally good, particularly some of the produce of Newminster and Cossack. The British and Irish Magnetic Telegraph Com- pany are opening offices directly fronting the Betting Rooms iu High- street, so that the incommodiousness of such an establish- ment only at the railway station will now be obviated. There will be no lack of amusements. Mr Addison, at the Theatre Royal, has succeeded in obtaining the entire company of Mr Charles Kean, of the Princess's, and brings out some of the most popular plays of the day. So far as the state of the course is concerned, it really never was in finer order, aud unaffected for the worse by the late heavy rains. The number of horses likely to be here will be more than an average, and those who now require stabling will discover it no easy matter to find it. At the Salutation Inn will be located ihe horses of Lord Glasgow ( 7), Lord Derby ( 3), Lord Chester- field ( 7), and John Scott ( 19). In these are included several for sale, including those bred by Mr Cookson ( 9), and the late Mr A. Johnstone ( 22). At the Turf Tavern there will be Charles Peek* J. Fobert, W. Goater, W. I'Ansou, J. Dawson, Elliot, John Day, Wilberforce, and others, together withthe yearlings of Lord Scarborough, & c, in the whole amounting to little, if any, short of a hundred! At the Rockingham Inn stabling is engaged for those belonging to Sir W. Booth ( 2), Captain Christie ( 7), Mr Ten Broeck ( 2), Sherwood ( 3), aud others. At the Doncaster Arms, John Osborne will have 15, and G, Abdale a teaia of five, Thos. Dawson has private stabling for 15 in Prmcs's- street. The interest in the neighbourhood with regard to the St Leger was never greater. The popularity of the Fitzwilliam family, apart from any other consideration, gives to the race a character which it has not enjoyed for years, and, with fine weather, we have little doubt it will be witnessed by an immense assemblage. One of the features of the meeting will be the Race Officials" Dinner on Wednesday evening at the Black Boy Inn, at which nearly the whole of the race officials of England are expected to meet, under the presidency of Lieut- Colonel Ouseley Higginss Major Wortley, and Jas. Merry, Esq. We believe the occasion will partake more of a friendly gathering than anything elses although it is not unlikely observations may be made which will aid in promoting a good understanding amongst all parties, and the adoption of salutary regulations for the prevention of " mal- practices" at race meetings. THE DONCASTER CUP. We have been favoured, by Mr C. F, Hancock, of Eruton- street, with a view of the Doncaster Cup, to be run for next Friday, which has been manufactured from a design and model by Mr H. H. Armstead, of whose qualifications it is almost superfluous to speak. The celebrity of the artist and of the manufacturer has extended far and wide, and the stewards of the meeting could not have entrusted to more competent hands the commission for this Cup. The design partakes of various schools and periods of art, uniting the classical style of the Greeks with the beauties of later ages, not in an incongruous and awkward unity of manner, nor with a tame servility of imitation, but in a way which brings to the production of a general whole the respective excellencies of the distinctive por- tions. Thus, the Cup itself is of the tazza form, or saucer- shaped vase ; whilst the medallions are in the Greek style of the age of Pericles, the groups of figures of which thev consist being bas reliefs after the manner of the frieze of the temole of Minerva at Athens, and which, as everybody knows, are now to be seen in the gallery of the British Museum. The story told by the artist is from the Metamorphoses of Ovid, and represents the exploit of Meleager in killiHg the Calydouian boar, and presenting the head to Atalanta, the boar hunt, the sacrifice to the Deities of ( Eaeus, and his neglect of Diana ; her vengeance for his neg « lect; aad the transformation of the sisters of Meleager into birds by the goddess. The group of statuettes by which the cover of the tazza is surmounted represents Meleager presenting the head of the boar to Atalanta. But he, the conquering chief, his foot impressed On the strong neck of the destructive beast; And, gazing on the nymph with ardent eyes, ' Accept,' said he, * fair Nonaoeine, my prize, And, though inferior, suffer me to join My labours, and my part of praise, with thine." At this, presents her with the tusky head Aud cliine, with rising bristles roughly spread. Glad, she received the gift; and seem'd to take With double pleasure, for the giver's sake." Such a gift would be a little uncouth in these days, and the utmost the most adventurous female patroness of the chase could achieve in our times would be the brush of a fox or some smaller trophy of a hard run. The bas- reliefs contained in the medallions represent the boar hunt, and the sacrifice of ( Eneus. also taken from Ovid :— " Some spread around The toils, some search the footsteps on the ground, Some from the chains the faithfui dogs unbound. The boar was roused, and sprung amain, Like lightning sudden, on the warrior train; Beats down the trees before him, shakes the ground; Shout the fierce youth, and clamours ring around. All stood with their protended spears prepared, With broad steel heads the brandished weapons glar'd," And, with respect to the sacrifices :— " For CEneus, with autumnal plenty bless'd, In gifts to heaven his gratitude expressed; Cull'd sheaves te Ceres ; to Lyceus, wine; To Pan and Pales offered sheep and kine; Aud fat of olives to Minerva's shrine. Beginning from the rural gods, his hand Was liberal to the powers of hii^ h command; Each deity in every kind was bless'd, Tili at Diana's fane the invidious honour ceased." The sisters of Meleager, transformed into birds, are placed by the artist at the foot of the tazza, and are perfect illustrations of the words of the poet, to whom we must refer our readers, with the assurance that the story told by him will well reward the trouble of a perusal. In the manufacture of this very elegant piece of plate the metal has been partly oxydised and partly burnished; this has been done withjudgment, so that the figures are well brought out, and the lights and shadows admirably contrasted. THE AMERICAN HORSES AND THE GOODWOOD CUP. Want of space prevented the insertion last week of the follow- ing " card" of Gillpatrick, the rider of Prioress in the Goodwood Cup, which, on his return to New York, he thought proper to publish in Porter's Spirit of the Times. Such a communica. tion will, no doubt, appear strange to English sportsmen, and the attempt of a jockey to screen his gross riding by divulging the privates trials of the stable is as inexcusable as dishonest; and we congratulate ourselves that the aunals of the British turf do not display a similar instance of betrayal of trust be- tween master and servant. TO THE EDITOR OF PORTER'S SPIRIT OP THE TIMES. " MY DEAR SIR : As I am met here by a great desire to know the particulars of the Goodwood Cup race, and as I find there is an inclination evinced by some parties to censure me therein, I shall beg the favour of your columns, as a general and final answer to them all. " I left New York June 20, engaged by Mr Ten Broeck, to ride either one or other of his horses in the Goodwood Cup. I ar- rived at Southampton on the 30th of June, and immediately de- parted for our training stable at Stockbridge, which I reached the following day. I saw the horses Pryor and Prioress. The former had just recovered from a lung fever, and had been gal- loped, Mr Palmer told me ( if I recollect right), but three times previous to my arrival. Prioress had been also ailing, but seemed in better condition than Pryor, who, though he looked pretty enough to the eye of an ordinary spectator, was in no racing trim whatever. I immediately set to work, exercising Pryor, whom I found incapable of extending himself; in fact, the horse seemed tied up, which fact I forthwith communicated to Mr Ten Broeck; he did not seem to listen to my comments, and made me no satisfactory reply. Matters remained in this state until about the 16th of July, when our first trial took place; the distance was one mile and a half. I rode Prioress alone for the first half mile, when Pryor, ridden by Littlefield, joined in— he beat the mare to the Stand, she tiriDg badly, and showing signs of leg weariness. Things went on in the same way up to the next trial, which took place on the 25th of July, over the same track. I again rode the mare; the trial was two miles; Pryor running the entire distance, and Prioress joining in for the last mile and a half. The mare beat Pryor about two lengths in the trial, but exhibited the same symptoms of leg weariness as on the previous occasion. " On the following Saturday we left for Goodwood. Mr Ten Broeck stopped with the horses ; there was much talk among ourselves about the prospects^ of our horses, but nothing trans- pired of interest to the public. On Monday morning, we com- menced galloping on the Goodwood course, which gallops we re- peated every morning until that of the race. Mr Ten Broeck walked round the Cup Course with us, and some conversation took nlace as to the best ground for us to run on, especially the mare* as she was such a long strider that we wanted to obtain the smoothest possible place for her to run on. '' Mr Ten Broeck pointed out to me those portions of the track he thought best suitable to the mare, as the smoothest, and most free from undulations, which might throw her out of her stride, and accordingly on the day of the race, I, in obadience to his di- rections, swung out ol the beaten path, followed by the other horses, in order to obtain ground more suitable to the mare's peculiarity of stride. " On the morning of therace, my orders were, to make a slow, or what English jockeys call ' a waiting race" of it— further, not to take the lead, or force the running, if I could help it, with Prioress. " The start took place; we all went at a bad pace for the first half mile ; Prioress, unlike ordinary horses, when put to a gallop, from her length of stride, caunot go slow, and the pace was so bad with the others, that in spite of myself I was forced to take the lead, which I maintained to the second turn going out, up to which time I had kept the inside of the track, the others taking the outside. I then gradually bent across the track as had been agreed upon, which brought me a little outside of the others, who retained their original position. We ran in this way, at a bad pace, to the top of the hill; when we arrived here the mare appeared to be very fresh, and I thought would make a good run home. The pace now began to increase. I kept with them to the turn into the straight run in, when a still greater improvement in speed took place. At the half distance they began to quit me, and when within a hundred and fifty yards of the Stand I found the mare give way, and iu a few strides more she was ' gone all to pieces,' which I imagine everybody present perceived. Here was an end of the race— the mare being physically incapable, from want of condition, of doing any better. As to Pryor, with neither speed nor bottom, he had not the ghost of a chance in in any part of the race. " Nothing was said to me by Mr Ten Broeck, or any other person connected with the stable, after the race was over, but I learnt that whilst we were running, Mr Morris observed ( when he saw me leading, as I was forced to do for a short time) that I was disobeying orders in taking the lead, aud that he would settle up with me in the morning and send me home. Nothing was said to me then, but my mind was previously made up to come home, anyhow, whether I won or lost. Next mornitig Mr Ten Broeck sent Pryor and Prioress back to the training stable at Stockbridge. After they had gone he said to me, ' Why, I thought you had gone with the horses?' I replied,' No, I wish to go home;' on which he remarked, he thought perhaps it was best, as the horses were not fit to run, and he did not know if he skould run them again this fall. He then settled up with me, and I left England, and here I am. " I have been accused of losing ground in the race. If I did so, it was in compliance with Mr Ten Broeck's directions as to those portions of the track to be taken to suit the mare, and whatever ground I may have lost in this way, I more than made up subsequently. The simple fact is, the horses were worn out with long and useless kind of work. During nearly a twelve- month previously, they had never even had a sweat ( so the boys told me) from the time they landed until I arrived in England„ The consequences may b « imagined— namely, want of all con- dition, and absolute need of rest— they were full of fat— burnt up inside, leg weary, and had no vitality in them. " In conclusion, I have no hesitation in asserting that had our horses been properly taken care of from the commencement— carefully trained, and brought to the post in anything like the condition we have seen them exhibit at home— that either of them could and would have won the Goodwood Cup easily. " At the time of my leaving, there was no probability of either of the horses— Pryor, Prioress, or Lecompte, running at Brighton or Lewes. Indeed, I think it doubtful if the American horses will apeear again prior to the four mile race over the Beacon Course," at the Newmarket Houghton Meeting in October. " I make the foregoing statement in justice to myself, and in order to be freed from the blame which has unjustly been cast upon me, I have faults enough of my own, without being bur- dened with those of other people. Had I had my own way, I would have returned immediately after seeing the horses; as it was, I stopped, and did the best I could under the most adverse circumstances. Hence, I do not choose to incur the odium merited by others.— Yours respectfully, " GILIPATRICK. " New York, August x7,1857." THE TURP IN HONG KONG.— Mr B. Ellam, the well- known extensive saddler and whipmaker, of 213, Piccadilly, has re- cently finished a magnificent riding whip, which, will be forwarded to China very shortly as a present to the Race. Committee at Hong Kong, to be run for, we take it, upon similar conditions as our own Whip, as a champion prize of the colony. As a work of art the whip reflects the utmost credit upon Mr Ellam's establishment, and the hand- some nature of the gift sufficiently bespeaks the donor's libe- rality and taste for the national pastime. The whip is manu- factured in black whalebone, the handle is of ivory inlaid with gold wire, and on the massive nob, which is riohly chased with •' running horses," are figures of a horse and jockey, exquisitely modelled in solid gold. The following inscription is engraved on the collar:—" Presented by B. Ellam, saddler and whip ma- nufacturer, Piccadilly, London, to the Race Committee, Hong Kong, through Sir H. Marsh, 1858." It is to be run for at the latter meeting in February next. BELL'S LIFE IN LONDON, SEPTEMBER, 13, 1857. 34 Horses marked * are in the Derby, t in the Oaks, t in the Leger. LICHFIELD RACES. wards: W. T. Copeland, Esq, Captain White, B. D. Webster, Esq. Judge and Handicapper : Mr R. Johnson. Clerk of the Course: Mr J. Sheldon, jun. Starter : Mr G. Calloway. To appearance, racing at Lichfield half a century ago, even when held solely under aristocratic auspices, could scaroely have produced greater interest at home than was centred in the present anniversary. Its few remaining friends had hope- lessly given up the affair, and but for calling in at the eleventh hour the aid of their Birmingham neighbours, whose only un. gratified ambition consists in the want of an adequate race- course themselves, probably no more would have been heard of the time- honoured sports on Whittington Heath. At request, the clerkship was accordingly accepted by Mr John Sheldon, iun, whose diligent exertions soon collected the elements of a list fully up to the mark of most provincial meetings. We, how- ever, were not amongst those indulging in the idea of its success, and therefore admit that, taking all militating matters into account the return ha3 far exceeded our expectation. True, ex- cept in one instance the fields were small, but the class of several animals sent to the meeting compensated for any drawback in that respect. The company, too, trebled . in respectability and numbers, any assembling on the ground for half a dozen seasons past, magnificent weather and a course in splendid order also assisting the common enjoyment. With his accustomed libera- lity, Mr Copeland presented 25 sovs to the handicap, which, bearing the name of the donor, very appropriately stood first for decision on Monday. Huntington, an unexpected visitor, and Flyaway, two speedy ones, were backed freely by their respective parties, but the former, of the same year, failed to concede, over so severe a finish, 24lb to Master Bagot, who won easily. Pyrrhus the Second, a good looking colt, who was talked of as an outsider for the last Derby, next pulled off the Maiden Plate in a canter, the committee, anxious to avoid a charge of niggardliness, by following in the footsteps of the Warwick, authorities, liberally giving the money for a race with two. The Staffordshire Stakes was easily carried off by Miss Harkaway, and in the Champagne Stakes Trot scored a third win to Saun- ders's stable. the afternoon's sport terminating with. theTamworth Plate, which, as anticipated, proved a mere canter for Eardrop. Tuesday morning opened with heavy storms, which, with little intermission, continued throughout the day. It did not, how- ever, deter another large attendance, whilst the arrival of many leading bookmakers from London lent additional vigour to busi- ness in the Ring. The Welter Handicap going off in a walk over, operations recommenced in earnest with the Queen's Guineas, which excited intense interest © wing to the meeting of Fisherman and Polestar, At the moment, however, the spec- tators were indulging in the prospect of a magnificent struggle between the two, the mare slipped on to her haunches in some holding ground half a mile from home, rolled on to her side, and got rid of her rider without injury to either. All doubt as to the issue, if indeed any existed, was removed by this contre- temps j and breasting the hill with scarcely an effort, the redoubtable son of Heron won, if possible, with greater ease than ever. The best contested thing of the meeting turned up in the Nursery Handicap, which Thornhiil, by downright game- ness, placed to " the Alderman's" credit, the triple success of whose colours appeared to give universal satisfaction. General Bosquet carried off the Gold Cup, easily beating a very moderate lot; though, but for the discovery at the last moment that he was lamo, Oakball would also have started. Pelting rain, with a mud and slush accompaniment, during this, the concluding event ( the Scurry not having filled) rendered colours nearly un- distinguishable and their wearers quite so. This alone marred the maiden effort of the new clerk and lessee, who has obtained nearly a score subscribers to the " Stakes" of 1858, when, if the punctuality observed on this occasion, the same excellent arrangements, the raising of the inclosure, and a more convenient fixture, fail to secure extensive support, at any rate Mr S. will have deserved it. MONDAY, SEPT 7.— The COPELAND HANDICAP of 5 sovs each, with 25 added; winners of 50 sovs and upwards after August 25 5lb extra; one mile and a quarter; 7 subs. Mr W.

Flyaway cut out the work to the dip in the bottom, when she wa3 joined by Master Bagot and the old horse, the favourite biding his time three or four lengths behind to the distance, where the grey showed in advance. Half way up Fordhar- n called upon his horse, but tiring under the weight, and the severe up- hill finish, he failed to reach Master Bagot, who won in a canter by two lengths, three lengths each separating the others. Run in 2min 12sec. A MAIDEN PLATE of 20 sovs, added to a Sweepstakes of 2 sovs each; three year olds and upwards; one mile; 4 subs. t Mr W. T.

The favourite took a clear lead, followed by Miss Uarkaway and Shadow, Moon- shine lying next, Hamlet whipping in. At the top turn Moon- shine drew into second place, having Miss Harkaway at her heels as they entered the back stretch, Hamlet being left in attendance on t his pair, when the Hednesford mare beat a re- treat at the three- quarter mile post. la the straight Moon- shine and Miss Harkaway gradually crept up to the light- weight, and closing with him right and left at the distance, a fine race home resulted in the mare getting her head in advance in the last dozen strides, and winning by a neck ; the second saved his stake by a head, and Hamlet finished half a length from the third ; Shadow tailed off.

Jane, breaking away, caused one false start, and then jumped off with the lead, waited on by the favourite, a wide interval dividing this pair from the others, of whom Mary Lovell lay third, and Prince's Mixture next. Inside the distance Eardrop deprived the mare of the lead without an effort, and won iH a canter by a length ; bad third; the rest, headed by Prince's Mixture, straggling all over the course.

Polestar started with the lead/ Nriiich in the first two huudred yards she increased to about twentjN^ ugths, King- fisher going on second, about as far in advance of ^ akball, the favourite lying next, and Hamlet in the rear. They ran thus for three- quarters of a mile, when Kingfisher was passed by Oakball and the favourite, the two latter thence travelling on side by side, and drawing upon the mare at every stride, so that at the half- mile post not more than three lengths divided the trio. Polestar slipped up at that point, and falling immediately in front of Fisherman, Goater miraculously escaped injury through the mare fairly striding over him. The remainder was a match between the favourite and Oakball, who came on level to the half distance, where the fermer quitted his old opponent, and won, " hands down," by four lengths. Hughes having stopped his horse, Kingfisher and Hamlet were pulled up at the distance and walked in. Run in 3min 50sec.

Inside the distance Echo chal- lenged, headed the favourite half- way up, and won a fine race by a neck; very indifferent third. Run in lmin 57iec. The winner was bought in for 25 guineas.

Lincoln Tom and the Dupe colt ran together in front for about fifty yards, when the favourite, who started last, rushed past his horses, and took his place next to Mr Mather's colt, who, with the others clus- tering at his heels, went on with the running to the distance, where he was beaten. Thornhill, the Pantasa's dam colt, and T. P. Cooke then showed in advance, closed, and ran home locked together, the former getting the best of it in the last two strides, and winning the fiuest race of the meeting by a head, same between second and third; the fourth beaten two lengths from the latter ; bad fifth.

MONDAY, SEPT 7.— This little affair came off on Monday last, and attracted, as is always the case when favoured with fine weather, a large attendance, the extra attraction of the fair supplying an agreeable feature to the day's amusement. The sport, as will be gathered from our brief return, was much better than usual, and appeared to afford more than the average amount of gratification to the thousands present.

Stewards: John Brown, Esq, and the Mayor of Hartlepoo Secretary and Treasurer: Mr John Lawrenson. Judge: Mr John Steele. Clerk of the Course, Mr John White. This meeting was held on Monday and Tuesday last, and with the aid of favourable weather and a large attendance of visitors — cheap excursions being made from Newcastle and Sunderland — proved very successful. The fields were, nnder all circum- stances, large, and the sport seemed to afford universal satisfac- tion.

The rider of the winner was presented with a marine barometer. CARDIFF RACES. These races came off on Monday and Tuesday, and were attended by a large concourse of spectators, including all the sporting men of the neighbourhood. The weather was de- lightfully fine, and the course in capital condition. The Cardiff Stakes was the event of the day, but it was such a tame affair as to afford satisfaction to no one. In the preparatory canter Emerald bolted into a turnip field, and was with some difficulty brought to the starting post. When the flag dropped he refused to move, and the others went away at such a slow pace that many thought there was no start ( especially as it was asserted by some that the bell rang). The three horses went round at only a trot, keeping together until they came opposite the Stand, when a gentleman who had been allowed to get on the course, clapped his hands and cried out, " Now go it," when the Epirus colt shot off at a slapping pace, the Dupe being second, and Octavia a long way behind. MONDAY, SEPT 7.— The TRIAL STAKES of 3 sovs each and 25 added, for three year olds and upwards ; weight for age ; one mile and a quarter ; 5 subs.

Vivian 3 Annot Lyle made all the running and won easily. Sweetbriar slipped at the turn and Bray was thrown so heavily that at first it was thought he was seriously injured. He remained senseless for soioe time, but ultimately recovered. The mare never once stopped, but struggled hard with Annot Lyle, and succeeded in coining in second. A SWEEPSTAKES of 2 sovs each, with 20 added, for horses bred in Glamorganshire or Monmouthshire; once round; 3 subs.

TUESDAY.— The running on the whole was much better to- day, but the attendance was not so good, owing to the threatening aspect of the clouds. In the afternoon the rain came down in torrents, and long before the sports concluded the common was also a swamp, the spectators seeking shelter in the refreshment booths. The Two YEAR OLD STAKES of 10 sovs each, h ft, with 50 added; colts Sst 71b, fillies Sst 41b; winners of 100 sovs 5lb, twice or a stake of 200 sovs 101bextra; about 5 furlongs; 4 subs.

Dartford won the first heat, but was disqualified. BECCLES AND SUFFOLK RACES. Stewards: Captain Crookshank, F. Barne, Esq, J. L. Garden- Esq, and G. Fenn ( Mayor), Esq. Clerk of the Course: Mr S. Merry. Judge: Mr Manning. These old established, but recently revived, races came off on Tuesday and Wednesday last; and although not under the im- mediate patronage of the nobility of Suffolk and Norfolk, as in days of yore, were attended by the gentry of the neighbourhood. The morning of the first day dawned in& uspiciously, and con- tinual showers kept the people under cover, to the great delight of the booth- keepers, who appeared to reap a fair harvest from the harvestmen, of whom there was a large sprinkling on the course. The cards of the day did not exhibit the names of Btradbrike or of Berners— names ever revered in Beccles— but they presented an average show of horses likely to run. More public money is added now than we find by reference to the pages of the liacing Calendar was given in the olden time. The fields are pretty nearly of the same calibre, and the racing itself of an average quality; so that the efforts of the " pantilers" in these remote regions have not succeeded in diminishing the sport nor injuring the trade of the town. The influx of people from the neighbourhood during the morning renders it a ques- tion of easy solution as to whether the shopkeepers are or are not benefited by the races. The exertions of the mayor and the race committee irf carrying on the races is beyond all praise ; and we can only say we wish their sport may improve during each successive year of their administration. To the liberality of the " natives" not a word can be objected ; the reasons for more horses not being sent must be the collision of Lichfield and Derby with the Suffolk meeting, and the great want of liberality on the part of the Eastern Counties Railway Company. The East Suffolk line will, however, be open next season; when the distance from London will be diminished by some forty miles, and those who wish to take a peep at farming— they do farm in this county— on their way to the races, can journey down without going round by Norwich, or crossing that lively looking Haddiscoe Fen, where the water evidently does not know which way it ought to run. The meeting on the whole passed off satisfactorily, notwithstanding the elements were so unpropitious. Heats, which are not fashionable now- a- days, were of great use here, improving the first day by a " dead ' un." Between forty and fifty gentlemen sat down to dinner at the ordinary on Tuesday, at which the mayor presided; and fine prospects are opened for next year with a host of names on the subscription list. A dejeuner a la fourchette was provided at the mayor's ( Mr Fenn's) residence each day before the races, the invitations to which were not more limited than were the peaches on the trees which grew in pots standing on the table. We scarcely know a small country meeting more worthy of being patronised than that of Beccles. TUESDAY, SEPT 8.— The BENACRE STAKES of 5 sovs each, with 15 added, for two year olds; colts 8st 71b, fillies Sst 31b ; certain penalties and allowances ; five furlongs ; 4 subs, t Mr La Mert's Melita, by Connaught'Ranger, 7st 121b..

Adelaide jumped off with the lead, eathergiass lying second, Anemone third, and Barbarity last, in which order they passed the Stand.

The boy, with wonderful presence of mind, caught hold ofhis saddle cloth and, riding home on her bareback, lanued Pomona the winner by a length. After passing the post the mare jumped and cleared the palings into the railway gar- dens, where little Daley fell trom exhaustion and for want of stirrups. The mare was soon caught and ridden back to the Stand, where the clever little fellow was received with tremen- dous cheering, in which the ladies heartily joined.— Third heat: Any odds on the mare, who won by three lengths. There was no bid for the winner. WEYMOUTH RACES. Stewards: Colonel Freestun, M. P.; Captain C. N. Sturt, M. P. i J. Royds, Esq; W. H. P. Weston, Esq; andJ. Turuer, Esq. Clerk of the Course: Mr W. Hatton. Although the details chronicled below will bear painful wit- ness to the failure of this meeting, and require in themselves no remarks by way of introduction, still the circumstances to which the deeline is attributable are of such a character as to justify us in devoting some portion of our space in reference thereto. For the last faw years Weymouth has had almost insurmountable obstacles thrown in its way by a saintly crew of pautiling puri- tans, who have done all in their power to prevent its maintaining even the feeble existence it now holds, and never in our expe- rience— by no means a short one— do we remember the spirit of that Pharisaical party being pursued to so monstrous an extent as we are informed has been the case here. We will briefly mention a few instances. At the last election for a member of Parliament it was sought to make it conditional with the repre- sentative that he should not support the races, but that effort not proving successful, a memorial was framed and presented to the Duke of Wellington, as Master of the Horse, to remove the Queen's Plate from Weymouth, and the Earl of Shaftesbury was petitioned to support it. By impudent misrepresentation many were induced to sign, and even sick dependents were visited in their beds for the purpose, but the movement met with the signal defeat it so richly deserved, an unqualified negative being returned thereto. In a town like Weymouth there are certain charities subject to the control of the parish authorities, and it appears that in many cases the benefits thereof have been awarded to those who promised opposition to the races, it being almost made conditional with the relief that, they should assist that movement. Moreover, the greater part of this scheme is purely preaching without practice, and we leave our readers to judge of the sincerity of its promoters, when we inform them that the families of five gentlemen most active in the opposition were seen in their carriages on the side of the coarse, eagerly watching a sport so " pernicious and immoral in its tendency," With such a state of things as above de- tailed it is almost surprising that the meeting has maintained even an existence, but we are assured that tnere are a select few who will earnestly give their support despite all obstacles, and judging from the list of subscribers already obtained, next year bids fair to cause the " saints" further uneasiness. The enormous rental— £ 30 for the two days— charged upon the race- ground, is another difficulty in the way of " raising the funds," and we hope to hear of its being considerably reduced. The sport— limited to two races a day— calls for little remark, being noticeable only for the maiden victory of December ( upon whose jockey " Honest John's" advice during their preliminary walk round the course was evidently not heedlessly given), and the repetition by Fisherman of his last year's victory in the Guineas, thereby effectually removing any doubt that may have existed respecting the result of their previous meeting at Lich- field, where, in running for the Queen's Plate on Tuesday, Pole- star fell withiu half a mile of home. Fisherman appears to be having even a busier time of it than ever, seeing that he ran at Lichfield on Tuesday last, at Derby on Wednesday, and at Wey- mouth in anotker part of the country on Thursday! WEDNESDAY, SEPT 9.— The MELCOMBE STAKES ( Handicap) of 10 sovs each, h ft, with 50 added; the second to save his stake ; about two miles; 12 subs. Mr Wm. Day's December, by Epirus, 5 yrs, Sst 51b..

They ran thus until half- way round the far side, when Claude Lorraine joined December, and on entering the straight the second time obtained the lead, December going on second, Shirah third, Tinwald fourth, and Brompton some lengths in the rear. There was no further change of moment until rounding the last turn, when Tinwald drew to the front, and, when fairly in the straight, headed Claude Lorraine, but failed to reach December, who, won easily by a length, the second beating the third by two lengths ; the other two beaten off.

T0TNES AND BRIDGETOWN RACES AND STEEPLE CHASES. Stewards: G. Saltan Symons, Esq, and E. Bisshopp, Esq. Clerk of the Course: Mr S. Heath. Secretary: MrT. Han- naford. " Confound their politics" heartily muttered the swains, and many a bright- eyed maiden wore a gloomy countenance when it was known in the early part of the summer that there were to be no races at Totnes, for at this meetiug the yeomen of the South Hams have annually been accustomed to take their wives and sweethearts to enjoy a national holiday after the days of harvesting are ended. Party spirit certainly does run high in this little borougk, and the races were in great jeopardy of being entirely lost, through the excitement raised at the general election as to whether the Noodles should hold power or the Foodies be in the ascendant. Fortunately, however, the Totnes men were not so blind to their own interests or their duty to their country as to allow this district meeting to be thus sacrificed. Other towns have allowed their races to die away through political feeling, but not so here. The in- habitants of Totnes— knowing, we hope, that next to the " wooden walls of old England" the sport of horse racing I is one of the greatest safeguards of the country— threw overboard all their differences, let Noodledom and Foodledom be forgotten, and got out the programme for as good a meeting as any of its precedents. It is unnecessary, then, to say that bright looks with the farmers— who, we are rejoiced to state, have made capital harvests— and high spirits with the sporting men, were apparent everywhere, and the meeting must be considered as very successful. The little rain which fell on Wednesday cer- tainly damped the ardour of some of the pleasure seekers, but it had the good effect of improving the condition of the course. On Thursday the weather was glorious, and thousands flocked ia from all parts of the country. An immense number were also conveyed to the scene of action by the convenient trains put on by the South Devon Railway Company, which must have been a source of considerable revenue, and ought to make the company give a Plate to be run for next year. The racing requires little comment. Phantom, an old horse of lasting powers, well knewn in the district, carried off both the Town and the Ladies' Plates very easily. Mr Deacon added fresh laurels to those already gained by winning both steeple chases, for the third successive year and with the sasne horse 1 Now that the meeting may be considered as likely to be regu- larly continued, we must suggest to the committee the advan- tage they would derive by the erection of a permanent stand, in place of the wooden one which has annually been put up by the lessees of the ground, at a cost to them of from £' 50 to £ 60. If £ 500 were laid out by the committee in the building of a stand, the lessees would willingly pay an advance of £ 50 upon the rental of the ground; thus returning at least 10 per cent upon the outlay, whichat the present time is no very contemptible dividend, and, moreover, better accommodation could be given to the company, officials, jockeys, and the press than is at pre- sent to be obtained. The details of the racing are as follows :— WEDNESDAY, SEPT 9.— The TOWN PLATE of 35 sovs; heats> about two miles. Mr Waite's br g Phantom, by Jack in the Green ( h b), aged, 9st 51b T.

Fanny Kaye made a mistake in the lane about half- way from home, and the race was left to Edgar and Tip Top, the former winning by about a dozen lengths. Weaver made an objectiou to Edgar on the ground of his going on the wrong side of a post, but the stewards, after examining the place and taking evidence upon the spot, decided in favour of Mr Deacon.

After passing the river, Archer pulled the latter into the rear, but, making a mistake on entering the stubble- field opposite the Stand, the mare dis- mounted him, and took a considerable ramble before she was stopped. The other three continued together until they reached the spot where Vengeance fell last year, when Tip Top followed the example of Fanny Kaye, and Weaver's chance was gone. Mr Deacon's two thus left alone cantered in together, Edgar winning by two lengths.

Clerk of the Course : Mr T. Marshall. Starter: Mr Elliott. Invariable good generalship and straightforward dealing, cou- pled with a central position and influential sporting residents, have latterly secured for these races a respectable amount of patronage, so that, of a dozen meetings, supplying no less than twenty- four days' racing durinst the past week, Derby, in point of success, has unquestionably carried away the palm. The difficulty attending several former efforts in hitting upon a suitable fixture was now in a measure got rid of by following in the wake of Lichfield, thus cutting out four successive days' work for local speculators, and the fair sprinkling of Londoners looking in at the clerical city aforesaid— a strong reinforcement of the latter division on Wednesday assisting perhaps the best attended ring since the advent at the midland town of its present " administration." Incessant rain on Tuesday sadly interfered with the excellent going over the course at the commencement of the week, nor, owing to the flat lacality of the ground, was the least improvement wrought thereon by the lovely forenoon introducing the meetiug, which allured an immense throng to the spot only to experience an exact reverse of weather in one of the most disagreeably wet afternoons it has been our lot to encounter. Compared with last season there was an increaseof nominations and acceptances for the principal standing dishes, but, as the fields amply show, the entries for events closing on the eve of issue were unprece- dentedly large. The sports opened with the Maiden Plate, where- in Cara Fatima easily upset a " pot" in the Gentle Kitty colt. A protest, however, that Cara had run on the wrong side of a post restrained the party exultation consequent on such " turns up," and nearly an hour elapsed before the result of an investigation before Earl Ferrers, R. Sutton, and J. B. Storey, Esqrs, de. cided that the fielders had drawn " first blood." Not to forestall things, a matter of far greater importance had previously been submitted to the stewards, originating in the posting of the fol- lowing notice:—" The weights in the Nursery and Innkeepers' Plates will be raised to 8st71b, according to the Newmarketrule." There being no acceptance for the events referred to, it was urged that the rule did not apply, but at length, though at- tended with inconvenience in procuring fresh jockeys and hunt- ing up extra weight, parties interested in the Nursery consented to the " rise," with the exception of the owner of the Margaret of Anjou colt, who persisted in running at the weight on the card. Haviug thus an advantage of lllb, the colt came in first, whereupon the race was claimed for Cornboro' on the ground that the other had not carried his proper weight, and subse- quently the objection was confirmed. This was followed by a notice from Mr Halford to the clerk not to pay over the stakes, and so for the present the matter stands. The Tradesmen's Plate created unusual interest at the bold attempt of Fisherman to concede 54lb to one, and 53lb to another of the same year, and he went for a heap of money. The dismal faces a » d excitement may therefore be imagined, when, turning half a mile from home under the weight in the deep ground the crack's colours were lowered, and Tiff— with a relish for dirt, but not backed for a shilling— jmlled through in a canter. The success of Silvertail in the Derwent Stakes placed a trifle to the fund, and the Innkeepers' Plate resulted in favour of Tame Deer. A few storms on Thursday morning were succeeded by brilliant sunshine, which favoured the proceedings to the close, Ten out of the baker's dozen entered showed for the Sudbury Handicap, for which favouritism was divided between Slattern and the Gentle Kitty colt. The latter, however, as in the open- ing race of yesterday, only contrived to get a place, whilst the mare proved decidedly the " better horse." Mainstay next walked over for forfeits in the Chesterfield Plate, the interval caused thereby being at last admirably relieved by a splendid struggle for the Chatsworth Plate, which terminated in a dead heat between Leo and Slattern, nene the worse for her previous journey. Equally exciting was the deciding " go," in which Leo held his own throughout. Repeating his triumph in the, Sel- ling Plate, Silvertail was again brought to the hammer, but once more returned to old quarters, after this time adding 32 guineas to the racing exchequer. The final " touch" for the Chatsworth, above alluded to, wound up a very pleasant and efficiently con- ducted meeting, the superintendence of which, by Mr Marshall, must have afforded additional congratulation to the committee in having confided their affairs to such competent hands. Sub- joined is a list of the principal company honouring the occasion with their attendance:— Earl and Countess of Chesterfield and Lady Evelyn Stanhope, with whom were, the Duchess of Somerset and Lady Ulrica, G. Maur, Lord Sydney Osborne, Sir Robert and Lady Emily Peel, the Honourable Colonel Mac- donald, the Hon H. Forester, Count Chotek ( of the Austrian Le- gation), H. Fitzroy, Esq, and George Payne, Esq. The Earl and Countess of Harrington's party comprised Lady Anna Chandos- Pole, Lord Petersham, — Macdonald, Esq, the twe Miss Mac- donalds, Lady Boauchamp, — Pamther, Esq, Walter Stirling, Esq, and Wyndham Smith, Esq. The Earl and Countess Fer. rers, and Lord Chichester, Earl of Lincoln, Sir H. S. Wilmot, Bart, Major Foster, Major Stuart Wortley, Captain Little, J. B, Storey, Esq, J. B. Storey, jun, Esq. Captain Marsland, and Lieut Huxley, were also present. The Earl of Lincoln and R. Sutton, Esq, have accepted the stewardship of 1858.

There was no material change until making a circuit of the course ( about one mile and a quar- ter) when the first four took close order for the succeeding one huudred and fifty yards, after which Tiff and Moonshine came out, and racing for the lead the latter obtained a clear advantage about half a mile from home. In the straight Moonshine was beaten, and Cockatoo became the follower of the Middleham mare, the favourite at the same time drawing into third place, but tiring under the weight and the deep ground, he was not much further persevered with. Tiff meanwhile held the lead to the end, and won easily by a couple of lengths. Mooashine cantered in third a long way behind the first two, whilst Vulcan aad the favourite walked in from the distance, and did not pass the chair. Run in 3min 30sec.

Silvertail caused two failures by breaking tway, and then depriving Sister to Hesse Cassel of the lead after the first two hundred yards, was never caught, and won in a canter by two lengths; shocking bad third. The Bretby mare slipped up and fell when close in the wake of the winner at the straight, and Hazard jumping round at starting, took no part in the race. Run in lmin 23sec. J. Snowden weighed for Aura, and her number was put up, but she did not go to the post. The winner was bought in for 35gs. The INNKEEPERS' HANDICAP PLATE of 50 sovs; once round.

They ran almost level for about a quarter of a mile, when Tame Deer shewed in advance ; Blight next going up in the bottom and racing with the favourite, who quitted him inside the dis- tance, and won a good race by a length; the third beaten a neck from the second.

The restiveuess of Dot, who thrice broke awav, caused some delay at the post, and at last but a very middling start was effected. The Gentle Kitty colt was first off, but directly gave way to Unexpected and Magnolia, the former making play to the turn, where he rup- tured a blood vessel and was stopped. Magnolia and Lord Ches- terfield's colt thence led alternately to below the distance, where Slattern joined the pair, and, shaking them off in the next fifty yards, won easily by a length, the third finishing half a length from the secend, a length in advance of the fourth, close up with whom Miss Nightingale, Dot, and Lady Hercules were the next three, Jessie eighth, about three lengths from them, Stormy Petrel beiag next, as Unexpected walking in, did not pass the post.

After two or three failures, the lot, with Leo in advance, were de- spatched on pretty fair terms, Lord Jersey lying second, followed by St Dunstan, Slattern, and Huntington, in the erder named. They ran thus to the bottom, where Lord Jersey was in trouble, and, dropping away in the straight, Slattern, with St Dunstan at her side, took their places next to the favourite, whom the filly challenged inside the distance, and, after a magnificent struggle, got up in the last stride, and made a dead heat of it; a wide interval divided St Dunstan from the leaders, his rider, as also those of Huntington and Lord Jersey, having stopped their horses at the half distance. Run iu 2min lOsec. Pritchard and Challoner were admonished by Alderman Copeland for disobe- dience to the starter.— Deciding heat; 5 to 4 on Slat- tern.

The flag was lowered at the fourth attempt, when Trot jumped off with the lead, with the favourite and Maggie Lauder closely laid up for about fifty yards, when the latter fell back, and the Psyche filly took her place. The issue afterwards, however, lay between the first mentioned pair, iEthon waiting at Trot's shoulders to the half distance, and, then taking the lead, won cleverly by three parts of a length ; a length each divided second, third, and fourth. Cornboro' was fifth, and after him iu a cluster came Plague Royal, Woodmite, and Volatore, Schoolfellow bringing up the rear. Run in 54sec. ROCHESTER AND CHATHAM RACES. Stewards: C. W. Martin, Esq, M. P., and Major- General Sir F. Smith, M. P. Hon Sec: Mr G. Windeyer. Judge: Mr J Manning. Starter: Mr Starling. As might have been anticipated, at the end of an overcrowded week's racing, this meeting presented a marked contrast to that of last year, not only iu the quantity and quality of the sport, but in the attendance, which, both as regards general company and the Ring, was extremely scant and unimportant. This is much to be regretted, as the committee, backed by the spirited sup- port of the stewards, have shown their usual liberality in sup- plying the required amount of added money to the different stakes, so as to render them attractive and worthy of the sup- Eort of the racing public. Since last year great improvements ave been made in the course, the objectionable turn at the lower side having been widened, and the order of running re- versed, thereby rendering it safe and unexceptionable. The recent rains likewise made the turf soft and elastic, which is an unusual occurrence on Chatham Lines. The racing on the two days was of a very meagre description, as will be gathered from the subjoined details. THURSDAY, SEPT 10.— The MEDWAY STAKES of 3 sovs each, with 25 added ; once round and a distance ; 3 subs. Mr Angel's Paula Monti, by Weatherbit, 3 yrs, 6st 181b ( 60 sovs) Dales I Mr E. H.

Paula Monti made the running to the first turn, where she ran out, and for a brief period gave the lead to Naughty Boy, but resumed it at the distance, and won easily by three lengths. Lucy Lockit broke down, and did not pass the post. The winner was not sold.

Adamant made play at a good pace, having for his followers Brunswick, Amelia, and Worcester; Madame Rachael, Sister to Elfrida, and Vulcan lying off. On rounding the turn into the straight, Sister to El- frida took the second place from Brunswick, but at the half distance was passed by Amelia and Worcester, who joined Ada- mant, and ran a good race home, Amelia winning rather cleverly at last by half a length ; the same between second and third. Sister to Elfrida was a bad fourth, and the others beaten off. On returning to scale the owner of Worcester claimed the race on the ground that Amelia should have carried 5lb extra for winning the Cup at Ipswich. The stewards have submitted the question for the decision of Admiral Rous.

Few people attended to day, the weather being wretched, and the course " sticky." The card contained five races, the match being got up to supply the place of the Falcon Stakes, which did not fill.

The usual monthly meeting of the Rauelagii Yacht Club was held at the club house, Swan Tavern, Battersea Bridge, last Wednesday evening, the 9th inst, the Commodore in the chair. The meeting was very numerously attended, but, as is usual at this season of the year, there was but little business of import- ance to be transacted. A letter was read from the Vice- Commo- dore tendering his resignation, which was aocepted, and the letter was ordered to be entered on the minutes of the club The following gentlemen were proposed for election at the next meeting :— Sir Charles Sheppard, 64, Park- place, Chelsea ; Mr Thomas Watkins, Holly wood, Fulham- road; and Mr John Fielder, Trafalgar- square, Chelsea. The Commodore then ad- journed the meeting until Wednesday, the 14th of October. RYDE ROYAL REGATTA- The forty- second anniversary of this regatta was fixed to take place on Wednesday, by the committee, who are the Ryde Pier directors; but, in consequence of the squally and boisterous weather, and the incessant rain which fell during the forenoon, they judged it advisable to start the celebrated Ryde wherries, and to postpone the remainder of the matches until the follow- ing day— wind and weather permitting. Suoh was the in- auspicious weather on Wednesday that none but the hard- a- weathers and fear- noughts would show to it, and, although the pier was gaily dressed with the varied flags and signals, as is customary on Ryde's gala day, it failed to attract the fair sex who usually grace the scene in great numbers. There were nine matches in the programme, but the first match only came off, and this amid the pelting of the storm. It was intended that the wherries should start at noon precisely, but owing to the heavy squalls and hard rain which prevailed, it was postponed until one p. m., and the remainder of the matches deferred until the morrow. FIRST MATCH, for Ryde wherries, to take their stations at 11: 30, and to start at 12 ; first prize £ 8, second £ 6, third £ 4 10s fourth £ 3 10s, fifth £ 2 10s, sixth £ 2, losing boats £ 1.10s. The following boats were entered for this race :— NAME. LENGTH. OWNEB. | NAME. LENGTH. OWNEB. FT. IN. FT. IN. MELCHETPARK. 28 0.. C. Osmond | ALMA 80 0.. John Wearn PEARL 88 8.. T. Southcott J VICTORY 28 0 . John Sivell PALLAS 86 0.. Thos. GAIVN | LADY JANE .... 88 8.. John Gawn The course was from a slip rope made fase to the pier, thence to the eastward, rouwd a flag- boat moored near the Sandheads buoy ; thence to the westward, round the quarantine vessel and back to the pier ; twice round. The match was exciting, mas much that the Pearl had been lengthened since last season, in the hope of improving her speed, she having already carried off the first or second prize for about thirty seasons. It was, how ever, arranged that, owing to her increased length, it should be a time race, and that each boat should be allowed one minute per foot and five seconds per inch; the result was that the Pearl had to allow as follows : to Melchet Park, 10: 40 ; Pallas, 12: 40 Alma, 8: 40; Victory, 10: 40; Lady Jane, 10. All being Ready, the gun was fired at 1: 10 precisely, and, amid a tremendous squall from the southward, the vessels got away, the Alma taking the lead, followed by the Lady Jane, Pearl and the rest pretty well together. On rounding the liag- boat to the east- ward they were brought into something like order, the Pearl being the first to jibe round, closely followed by the Alma, Lady Jane, Melchet Park, Victory, and Pallas. From the direction of the wind, commonly called " a soldier's wind," id est, going out on one tack aud returning on the other, the race was divested of any particular manoeuvre, and the vessels were con- sequently tested only in running large. On returning from the Sandheads they passed the pier in the following time aud order: H. M. s. I H. M. s. | H. M. s PEABL 1 29 15 LADY JANE ... 1 30 51 VICTOBT 1 81 29 ALMA 1 80 85 I MELCHBT; 1 81 28 [ PALLAS 1 82 80 As each vessel passed to the westward they sailed with gun- wales under, and it was owing to the superior skill of their re- spective skippers that no accident occurred. A slight alteration in their positions took place between the mark vessels, and we noted the time, on rounding the quarantine vessel, as follows:— H. M S. I H. M. S. I H. M 8. PEABL 1 36 20 LADY JANE. ... 1 38 37 MELCHET L 39 35 ALMA 1 88 85 | VICTOBY 1 39 30 | PALLAS 1 11 0 The first round was completed on passing the pier as under :— H. M. S. I H. M. 8. I H. M. S. PEAHL 1 44 50 LADY JANE ... 1 48 50 MELCHIST 1 50 10 ALMA 1 48 28 | VICTORY: 1 49 33 | PALLAS. 1 52 5 The wind had now become more moderate, and the second round of the course was pursued with but slight alteration. On returning from the eastward the Alma carried away the beckets of her jib sheets, when almost neck and neck with the Lady Jane, which retarded her progress and she then became the third vessel. On returning past the pier their positions were :— H. M. S, } H. M. S. J H. M. S. PEABL 2 5 55 ALMA 2 12 18 MELCHET .... 2 13 15 LADY JANE. ... 2 11 20 I VICTOBY 2 12 20 | PALLAS 2 16 5 The wind again freshened, and they severally returned to the goal as follows :— H. M. S. I H.

PEAKL 2 22 15 VICTOBY 2 so 85 MELCHET .... 2 31 50 LADY JANE. ... 2 29 15 | ALMA 2 31 35 | PALLAS 2 35 10 A better contested match between these wherries it has not been our lot to witness. But in consequence of the allowance of time per foot, the award of prizes did no*; take place until after our despatch left ( Friday). It is said that Lady Jane will claim the first prize, Victory the second, and Melchet Park the third. THURSDAY.— In consequence of the inclemency of the wea- ther of yesterday the - remainder of the regatta was postponed until this day, when it came off under the most favourable aus- pices, both of wind and weather. There was a light breeze from the S. W. throughout, with a brilliant sky overhead, which caused all Ryde and it3 visitors to avail themselves of the oppor- tunity of again getting abroad. The pier was thronged with fashionable spectators, and it is doubtful whether on any former occasion they were exceeded in point of numbers. The schooners Caiman, H. Ormsby Rose, Esq, the Zouave, ft. Arabin, Esq, and several other yachts at, their moorings contributed much to en- hance the panorama afloat by a profusion of bunting. The num- ber of vessels sailing in the vicinity also enlivened the day. The following is the programme of the sports, and as the same is stereotyped from year to year there is very'little to add to our report beyond the mere return of the respective craft. There is one thing we ought to add. that as the object is to afford amuse- ment to the spectators, the men invariably agree in the minor matches to share equally the prizes :— MATCH for four- oared galleys belonging to Ryde; to be rowed by men belonging to Ryde; crew to be dressed in guernsey frocks ; first prize £ 3, second £ 2, third £ 1, fourth 10s.— Prince, George Beazley, 1; Amazon, John Wearn, 2; Ann, Thomas Gawn, 3. MATCH for fishing boats belonging to Ryde, Wooton, Sea View, St Helen's, and Bembridge ; first nrize £ 5, second £ 3. third £ 2 fourth £ 1, losing boats 10s.— Lady " Susan, Charles Harris, 1 • Spy Cornelius Greenbam, 2; Fairy Queen, George Dmyton, 3; Eagle Thomas Wheeler, 4. Ten others started, tyut were not placed. The ether races were a sculling match by Ryde men, won by Charl ? s Harris, Curlew; a sailing match for boats not over 16i feet, belonging to Ryde, won by John Wearer ; a dingy race, a lottery race, ana other minor affairs. testify. The head- quarters and starting point were at the Coast Guard station, which is dug out at some elevation in the clitl, and from whence the starting guns were fired. Flags of every description were flying in all directions, each inhabitant doing his utmost to render the day attractive. The wind was at south west, moderate breeze, and smooth water, and the sailingboats had consequently a fair wind one half the course and a beating wind the other half, which caused some very interesting manoeuvres. The course altogether was about six miles, round two flag- boats, one moored off Sandown Fort and the other off Shanklin Head. At one p. m., just before high water, the starting gun was fired for the first match, which was for sailing fishing boats belonging to Sandown, Bembridge, Shanklin, Luccombe, Bonchurch, and Ventnor; first prize £ 1 10s, second 18s, third 10s, losers 4s each. The following were the entries on the card :— R3dwing, W. Williams, Ventnor; Sarah, T. Wheeler, Ventnor; Albion, R. Barton, Ventnor; Myrtle, T. Hunt, Ventnor; Saucy Caro- line, W. Kingswell, Luccombe; Aunt Caroline, W. Jackman, Luccombe; Wave Queen, Mursell, Sandown; Shakspere, U. Newberry, Sandown ; Lively Fanny, Tom Brooks, San- down. The Redwing and Aunt Caroline did not start. As soon as the signal was given ( one p. m.), the boats slipped from their moorings, and proceeded in the following order :— Wave Queen leading, followed by Shakspere, Saucy Caroline, Albion, Myrtle, and Sarah. They, thereupon, reached oft to gain an offing, then tacked and laid along the bay until they were enabled to weather the Shauklin flag- boat, from thence they bore away under a orowd of canvas in review order, forming a very interesting spectacle, the Wave Queen keeping the lead, closely followed by the Sarah. After rounding the boat off the fort, they made tack for tack to the southward, passing between the shore and a flag- boat off the starting point, until they accom- plished the second round of the course, which was performed in — ~ - - 1 T—, 4- .

Won by Redcap, after a severe struggle. THIRD RACE, for first class sailing boats; first prize £ 3, second £ 110s, third 15s, losers 6s each. The following boats started and proceeded in the order numbered, but subsequently changed their positions during a very exciting match, with the exception of the Tomtit, which kept her station throughout :— 1. Fairy, W. Bull, Yentnor; 2. Wanderer. A. Moore, Bem- bridge; 3. Alarm, N. Attrill, Bembridge; 4. Yankee, S. Prouten, Shanklin; 5. Nettle, Capt Scott, C. G.. Shanklin; 6. Tomtit, T. Brooks, Sandown. The Nettle and Yankee did not display their respective signal flags throughout the race, and the com- mittee ought to make this a sine qua non or forfeit stakes ; a decision, according to the rules of the Royal Southern, recently occurred, whereby the Wildfire forfeited her claim to a prize. The Nettle was decidedly a very superior boat, being mlact aDeal lifeboat, and carried a gaff topsail which gave her a superiority over the others. The other boats being adapted for the coast, constructed with a regard to safety more than speed, while the other may be termed a Coast Guard yacht. There were some interesting manoeuvres in this race, aud a frequent change of positions. They got well away in the order numbered. Yankee, lowever, was the first to get round the Shanklin markboat, from thence they had flowing sheets dead before it for about three miles, and as there was no limit to canvas, some boomed out and set squaresails, while others were goose- winged. Alarm now gets the lead, followed closely by Nettle, with her gaff topsail, which told much in her favour; then came Wan- derer, Yankee, and Fairy— Tonrtit all behind. Eventually Nettle passes the Alarm, and in turning to windward each dis- played their several capabilities, but it was a tight match be- tween the Nettle and the Alarm, and the Yankee aud the Wan- derer, the last two changing places in the second round, as will be seen in the following returns LST BOUND. 2D BOUND, H.

FOURTH RACE, for fishing boats; two rowers; three prizes, £ 1, 12s, and 8s. This was a well- contested match, won by Lively Fanny ( T. Brooks) of Sandown, beating Cupid ( W. Duff) and Bee ( J. Hawkins). FIFTH RACE, for first class rowing galleys, won by the Flying Cloud, of Shanklin, beating the Alma, of Ventnor. There were only two boats started; in fact, the Flying Cloud is a fine wea- ther gig, and no shore boat had the least chance with her. SIXTH RACE, for second class rowing galleys, won by Wave of Shanklin, beating Swallow of Ventnor, Mary Jane of Veutuor, and Arrow of Shaklin. This was also a well- contested match. Several minor matches, a duck hunt, and pole dance, and other amusements took place during the afternoon, until the canopy of heaven intercepted all further vision. There was a German brass band on the Committee Stand, which played several lively and popular airs throughout. Thus terminated the first Sandown Bay Regatta, which was very successful, and will probably be the forerunner of many others. £ 1. Time of starting, 5: 0: 0. Topsy, T. Calmer, 5: 26: 12; Arrow, A.

PENZANCE AND MOUNTS BAY REGATTA. This amusement, which had been discontinued for two or three years, revived this season, and cameoff on Monday. Tke weather was unfavourable during the former part of the day, but about noon a thick mist and smart shower cleared off together, aud the calm which had prevailed was superseded by a good breeze. The West Cornwall Railway brought upwardf of 2,000 visitors to the town, the neighbouring places sent their contingents to the army of holiday folks, and, when business had been partially suspended in the afternoon, many thousands thronged the Western Esplanade, from which a good view of the sport was obtainable. Here also the Penzantfe baud was stationed, and a tent was erected for the ladies. The starts were effected from the little steamer, the Duke of Buccleugh, belonging to Messrs Mathews and Co, on board which were some members of the committee. She was moored immediately off the public baths. Although the first- class fishing boats of the Bay are capable of making a good race, the sight of them has become so habitual, that the public looked for something of higher sailing power and smarter appearance. A match between yachts under 25 tons, for a haudsome silver cup and salver, was, there- fore, anticipated with much interest. Three had entered, as follows :— Fiora, 16 tons, T. G. Dennis, Esq ; Fawn, 24f tons, H. Filiis, Esq; Vampire, 18 tons, C. Wheeler, Esq. — None of these, however, came into the Bay, and it was con jectured by a gentleman, who knew the resolve of the owners to be present, that they feared a strong wind would set in, and detain them to the westward ; for the £ 15 silver tankard, of- fered to yachts under 26 feet, only one entry was made— the Gipsy Queen, of 24ft lOin, belonging to R. R, Michell. Esq, of Marazion. Thus the two most important races fell to the grouBd, and caused a disappointment which it was impossible for the promoters of the regatta to foresee. Racing commenced at 25 miautes to 1. MOUNTS BAY FISHING BOATS not exceeding 36 feet keel; no time j four prizes ; six to start or fourth prize withdrawn, four or second prize withdrawn ; first prize, £ 10; second prize £ 6 10s ; third prize, £ 4; fourth prize, £ 2. There being but three boats, the first and fourth prizes were offered. The course was from the steamer in an easterly direction to the Ryeman beacon, south easterly to a boat off the Mount, in a straight line across the bay to Mousehole Island, and back to the place of rendezvous ; twice over. A good start was effected, and the fol- lowing was the result:— Alarm ( 34^ ft), S. Downing, Newlyn, 3: 44: Volant ( 36ft), P. Kelynack, Newlyn, 3: 57; Endeavour ( 36ft), T. Strick, Newlyn, not timed. MOUNTS BAY FISHING BOATS, not exceeding 30 feet keel; sailing conditions same as above; no time ; - four prizes ; first prize £ 6, second £ 4, third £ 2, fourth £ 1. This would have been a splendid race, for the boats were numerous and well matched, but for a little misunderstanding. A small mark- boat had been placed off the Mount. In the mist it was invisible, aud Mr. T. Cornish very kindly volunteered to run down and convert his yacht for a time into the missing mark- boat. The skippers of the boats were plainly informed of this, yet some of them went round the yacht, and then stood to the southward, out of the course, to round the smaller boat, by this time visible. There was a good start at one. Whj- not ( 28ft), J. Bone, Newlyn, 4: 22; Inkermann ( 26ift), R. Eddy, Porthleven, 4: 24; Edward ( 26$ ft), G. Woolcock, St Ives, 5: 3; Rhoda ( 28ft), R. Clarke, Mousehole, 5: 21; Icaris ( 26ft), J. Reynolds, Newlyn, 5a23; Daring ( 29ft), R. Kelynack, Newlyn, 5: 50 ; Swan ( 29ft), P. Thomas, St Ives ; Monkey ( 29ift), J. Downing, Newlyn ; Adonis ( 27fft), T, Smith ; Vision ( 26ft), J. Richards. The committee have not yet made a final award m this case. YACHTS not exceeding 19ft from forepart of stem to afterpart of stern post; no time; two prizes; four to start or second prize with- drawn ; three to start or no race ; first prize £ 7, second prize £ 4. Iu this class there were only two competitors, and a single prize was put up, with the following result:— Ida ( 18ft), C. Chellew, Truro, 5: 21; Wanderer ( 164ft), S. Higgs, jun, Penzance, K. IK Tliotr ofavio^ flf fiwa mi'nnfna offnn Aria a'/ iIaoL- av> ri 4- 1-. r sidered to be a red ensign. Mr Filiis claimed the prize, but it 1 was withheld, and he was told that the race must be sailed over I again, but he protested against the money being appropriated to any other race. The committee, however, persisted in de- claring that it must be sailed for again, when Mr Filiis declined to engage in any other contest, and withdrew his yacht. Tuesday, the day following, was appoiuted for the race, when the Ethel, Vision, and Annie started. The signal was given at 11: 9 a. m., and the yachts got away well together. The contest between the Ethel and Vision was a very hard one, as will be seen from the time of their arrival on the first round, which was as follows :— H. M. S. I H. M. S. I H. M. S. ETHEL 114 0 | VISION 1 16 34 | ANNIE 128 0 During the second round the wind freshened considerably, and ultimately a heavy squall came ou, which tested the merits of the yachts, but they did uot change position, and arrived at the winning vessel in the following order :— H. M. S. I H. M. S. I H. M. S. ETHEL 2 57 15 1 VISION 3 2 The prize was awarded to the Ethel. 0 I ANNIE 4 17 0 SA3TD0WN EAY NATIONAL REGATTA. The inauguration of the above regatta took place on Monday last, under very favourable auspicas. It was originally fixed to come off on the Thursday previous ( the 3d), but, owing to the unfavourable weather which prevailed during the day, the com- mittee deemed it prudent to postpone it. On that occasion the elements were very turbulent, a deluge of rain descended, ac- companied with one of those terrific storms of thunder and lightning which occasionally pass over the island. As regards the locality, and the first event of this Weymouth of the Isle of Wight, we may mention that Sandowu Bay is peculiarly adapted for a regatta, ha ving an expanse of water extending from the Culver Cliff to Shanblin Head, protected from the S. W. winds by the promontory of Dunnose. The sands were formerly selected for the Isle of Wight pony races, until the village of Sandown sprung up as by magic, and has become a very fashion- able retreat; situate midway on the highroad between Ryde and Ventnor, and consequently easy of access, it is the stopping place of no less than six four- horse coaches during the day, besides other vehicles. The proximity of the fort erected by Henry VIII. for the defence of this part of the coast, its capacious barracks, and the celebrated Wilke's Cottage, were formerly its only attractions. With this introduction we proeeed to record Monday's proceed- ings, which came off under the most auspicious cirourtastances, both of wind and weather, and with triumphant success and satisfaction; the beautiful sands beneath the cliff presented throughout the afternoon a very large concourse of persons, who had thronged from all parts of the east end of the island to wit- ness the sports. The number of booths belonging to the various WEYMOUTH ROYAL REGATTA- KCONCLUDED). FRIDAY, SEPT 4.— Anticipation was raised to the highest pitch with regard to this day s proceedings, the principal item in the programme being the Town Challenge Cup, a splendid silver vase, value 100 guineas, which has for some years been to yachtsmen what the grapes were to the fox in the fable. The condition on which this prize had been formerly offered was that it should be won two consecutive years by the same yacht. Seeing the difficulty of accomplishing this, the committee had modified the conditions, and offered the cup to any yacht which should win the race twice, no matter what time might inter- vene. Notwithstanding this, it was believed by many that the Thought would have actually accomplished the feat so many other vessels had failed in, and the absence of the Lulworth among the entries appeared to favour this conviction. How- ever, though she had succeeded in winning the race last year, and shougii she made a promising start, a fresh candidate for the honour of carrying off the cup came forward in Mr Turner's Wildfire. The weather was exceedingly fine, and a fresh breeze afforded the yachts an excellent opportunity of displaying their speed. We should mention that each round was a distance of eight miles, and the time in which the Challenge Cup was run is said to have made it one of the quickest races on the southern coast this season. The following gives the result of the more important contests :— The TOWN CHALLENGE CUP, value 100 gs, to be sailed for by yachts of 10 tons and upwards; open to all the world, and to be won twice by the same yacht; four to start or no race; en- trance £ 210s; distance, four times round; time race, 30 seconds a ton; schooners to be allowed time lor tonnage, according to Ackers's scale.

Gibson, Esq. The start was made at 11: 45, when Thought took the lead, with Phantom second, followed by Emmet and Wildfire. The breeze, however, appeared to favour the progress of Wild- fire, and she shortly after took first place, keeping her position at each successive rounding of the steamer in the bay, when the respective yachts were timed as follows: lST BOUND. 2D BOUND.

Great credit is due to the builders and to the crew for the seamanlike manner in which she was handled. The last round timed as follows, viz, 4: 41. The dav was brought to a close with a variety of matches for pleasure- boats, with other sports and amusements for the entertainment of the public. DOVER REGATTA. [ From the Dover Chronicle.'] On Monday last, according to annual custom, Dover turned out upon its beach to witness the regatta. " Everybody," in the figurative sense in whioh that noun of quantity is customarily understood, was there. The beach and the sea- wall skirting the shore were thronged with spectators of all ranks and degrees, The judges' stand, gay with union- jacks and adorned with flut- tering emblems of the concord existing between ourselves and bur friends on the opposite side of the Channel, contained the chairman of the committee ( W. H. Payn, Esq) and as many members of the same august body as could crowd into so small a space, together with the judges themselves ( Capt Noble and Capt Smithett), who clung to their posts and their duties with a tenacity admirable enough, jet marvellous to the uninitiated. The weather was all that could be desired, even for a regatta. The sky was cloudless; there was just sufficieut breeze to swell the canvas of the yachts aud sailing- boats, yet not too much to interfere with the rowing. In the centre of the bay, opposite the umpire's stand, the com- mittee boat lay moored, decked ovit with many- coloured flags and streamers from stem to stern. Two or three steam- packets similarly " dressed," and having on board large freights of spec- tators, were stationed near, while animation was given to the scene by a multitude of skiffs, yachts, and pleasure- boats, which, in defiance of the request of the committee, would not anchor clear of the course, but kept continually darting about. No ac- cident, however, took place during the day, the greatest good humour prevailing, if we except the feelings naturally attri- butable to the competitors in the racing, who were savagely fierce towards each other while the contests in which they were engaged lasted. After the matches were over, however, and the victors had honestly won and the defeated had been honestly beaten, mutual good understanding was restored. Everything, in fact, from the first race to the amusing duck hunt, passed off admirably FIKST RACE, a sailing match between yachts not exceeding 50 tons, for a purse of £ 30 ; half a minute per tan allowed for difference of tonnage. For this race the following yachts had been entered :— Little Mosquito, London, E. Bulmer, Esq ; Amazon, London, J. H. Johnson, Esq; Cyclone, Bristol, W. Patterson, Esq ; Avalon, Loadon, J. Goodsou, Esq ; Thought, Southampton, F. O. Marshall, Esq; Phantom, London, S. Lane, Esq ; Zuleika, London, F. Britten, Esq. The start was made at 12: 53.46, all the yachts bringing up to their moorings upon the signal gun being fired, except the Avalon, which had only been entered in case there should not be a sufficient number to create sport. The course was from the committee vessel round the west buoy, thence round the outside buoy, thence to the east buoy, passing between the committee vessel and the shore ; twice round, leaving all the buoys on the larboard hand. The first round was made as follows:— H. M. S. I H. M. B. I H. M. S PHANTOM .... 2 26 37 AMAZON 2 38 4T J ZULEIKA 2 53 59 THOUGHT .... 2 29 34 | CYCLONE 2 42 15 | MOSQUITO After a good ruce, the Phantom proved the winner. The four fir3t named yachts arrived as under, the Zuleika and the Mos- quito having given in :— H. M. S. I H. M. S. | H. M. S, PHANTOM ....

The undermentioned entered — Yi< il « t, Colchester, J. R. Kirby, Esq; Undine, London, E Searle, Esq; Julia, London, P. Turner, Esq; Greyhound, Colchester, R. Frances, Esq; but the Violet and the Undine only started. The time of starting was 1: 35: 36, and the yachts came in as follows :— H. M. s. I H. M. s.

From the committee galley to the east buoys, twice round and a distance, finishing abreast of the stand. The start was made at 3: 0: 20.— Arrow. J. Goldsmith, 3: 26; 13 ; Topsy, T. Culmer, 3: 27: 6 ; La Lucia, J. Waddell, 3: 28: 49.

FLPTH RACE, between first- class four- oared regatta- built galleys, rowed by amateurs of the Cinque Ports, for a purse of 5: 45. They started at five minutes after one o'clock, and the Wanderer made her first round in two minutes less than the Ida, but on her second round the Wanderer showed the propensity her name indicates; she went too far south, and got becalmed. PLEASURE BOATS, not exceeding 13ft keel; 110 time; first prize £ 3, second prize £ 1 10s, third prize £ 1; once over the course. The following boats got off at 1: 15.

The Land's find men kept on their course, but the committee annulled the race. Later in the afternoon they started again. The prizes were easily won by the two first boats in the list, the Ada being two or three minutes in advance of the Fame. PLEASURE BOATS not exceeding 15 feet keel; no time ; three prizes ; five to start or third prize withdrawn, four or seoond prize withdrawn ; three to start or no race; first prize £ 4, second prize £ 2, third prize £ 110s.

Davis ; and the Bowl' ow of Hayle, Augustus Far ; started at 2: 19. The Onward took the lead, and increased the distance between her and the Bowl'ow throughout; she arrived three minutes in advance, and the regular sturdy stroke pulled by her crew was much admired. FOUR- OARED GIGS ( net skiffs); three to start for two prizes of £ 4 and £ 2.— The Mary ( R. R. Michell, Esq, of Marazion), the Rose ( T. Carbis), and the Wave ( John Nicholls of Penzance) started at 2: 99. The Rose beat the Mary by two minutes. The Wave was last. PAIR- OARED BOATS ( not skiffs); three prizes of 15s, 10s, and 1.— Three boats started at 3: 46 for the two first prizes. The Water Lily of Penzance, owned by Messrs Brown and Wakem, was pulled steadily and swiftly by S. Willey, aud came in first at 4: 1. The Cygnet of Penzance, owned by Mr C. Viner, was well pulled by J. Nicholls, jun, who would have stood a better chance but for a foul with the Try, aud was one minute behind ; and the Try of Penzance, T. Edmonds, gave up at an early period. SHOREHAM ANNUAL REGATTA. The fourth annual regatta at New Shoreham came off on Tuesday last. Unfortunately the weather in the early part of the day was very unfavourable, the rain literally fell in torrents, and there was a strong breeze from the S. S. W., which gradually changed to W. S. W. Shortly after two o'clock the storm ceased, and the sun shone at intervals. From eleven in the forenoon up to the above hour the weather was such as would certainly have cast a " damper" upon ordinary people, but not so at Shoreham, for at the appointed time the officials were at their post, and did everything in their power to expedite the racing aud gratify the spectators, of whom there was a very large num- ber, due allowance being made for the unfavourable state of the weather. A general holiday was observed in the town; banners were flying from the mastheads of the ships in harbour and from the upper windows of the chief inns, while a band of music rendered excellent service in the committee's barge. Mr Thos. Kirton officiated as iudge, and Mr Adams as his clerk, Mr S. Gates as starter, ana Mr May as commodore and clerk of the course. These gentlemen acted with generosity and impartiality, and received numerous- tokens of acknowledgment. The FIRST MATCH, for builders' boats exclusively, was with sail- ing boats, not exceeding 17 feet long; prize £ 1, second 10s, third 7s 6d, and fourth 5s.— Alarm ( J. Hopkins) 1, Mary Ann ( W, H.

The sailing match for £ 60 iu the regatta of the Royal Western Yacht Club on the 26th of August last, which was adjourned, owing to night setting in before it could be terminated, was ap- pointed to take place on Monday last. The vachts were the Vision, W. Rashleigh, Esq; Annie, S. Triscott, Esq: Ethel, Captain Bayly; and Fawn, H. Fillis, Esq. All these yachts started on Monday, the Fawn being the last to get away. In going out the first round towards the western mark boat, Mr Fillis discovered that it was lying in Cawsand Bay, but the boat was not descried by the other yaehts so quickly, and they fell off towards the eastward of the Sound. As soon as they per- ceived their error the Vision and Ethel bore ub and went back, both declaring that they should protest against the race. The Fawn and Annie, however, continued the race, and on rounding the committee barge on the completion of the first round, they were hailed and told that there was no race ; but, as the owners of the Fawn and Annie thought they had started fairly, and everything had been fair on their part, they proceeded. When they had completed the course, according to the regulations, Mr Fillis, who was the winner, went on board the committee vessel and claimed the stakes, when he was informed that in conse- quence of a protest being entered on the part of the owners of the Vision and Ethel, the race was void, and that in fact there was no race, the ground assigned being that the mark- boat in Cawsand Bay was not fixed according to the regulations, and secondly, that it had not the proper flag flying. With respect to the former objection, it was proved by a gentleman deputed by the committee to ascertain if the boat was in the right position, that the boat occupied the proper place, and by the bearings of the compass, was correct according to the directions issued by the committee. With respect to the second objection, it was shown that the same boatman was deputed by the club, on the GLASGOW ROYAL REGATTA. FRIDAY, SEPT 4.— The annual regatta of the city of Glas- gow Regatta Club came off on the river, at the Green, on Friday and Saturday, Sept 4 and 5, in presence of the largest concourse of spectators on the second day ever wit- nessed on the banks of the Clyde. The sport, on the whole, was excellent, and the arrangements of the com- mittee faultless. Lieut- C « mmander G. S. Boys officiated as commodore, and remained throughout the whole of Friday. Alexander Smollett, Esq, M. P., and J. Campbell, Esq, of South Hall, acted as judges. We need only say that the services of these gentlemen were highly appreciated. Everything passed off satisfactorily, and the secretary of the club, Mr M'Neill, and the other srentlemen who assisted in the completion of the arrangements, are entitled to every credit for the success of the regatta. The weather was delightful. The following is the result:— Tbe BREADALBINE CUP, in specie, of 6 sovs ; the winner to give 30s to second, and 16s to third boat; to be pulled in two- oared 27- feet gigs that have or will pull four oars at this regatta; open race.

Banks ( cox) 1 PEESEVEKANCE, Glasgow— R. M'Alister, A. M'Alister( stroke), S. Ward ( cox) 2 The I'histle made the pulling, and came in first by two lengths. FINAL HEAT. THISTLE 11 FIVE FEIENDS 2 After a beautiful start, Five Friends took a slight lead, which they kept till the Grand Stand was gained, when the Thistle gradually pulled ahead, and notwithstanding the efforts of their English opponents, who contested the ground with determined energy, the former came in winners by two lengths. LADIES' CUP, value five guineas. Second prize, a silver oar and anchor pin; to be pulled in skiffs of any length, by amateurs; open race. EIBST HEAT. BOY, Glasgow— R. Geddes 1 CONFIBENCE, Glasgow— D.

They started off again, the Gipsy with a lead of a boat aud a half, which position they kept till the re- turn home. The committee, seeing that the Gipsy was the means of fouling, decided the race in favour of the Clasper. THIBD HEAT. SLASHES, Glasgow— John Geades 1 WANDEEBB, Glasgow— L.

Sword ( cox, S After a good start the Maid of the Mist took a capital lead, in consequence of a foul betwixt the Jack's the Lad and the Blue Jacket, occasioned, we thought, by the former. After the latter boats got clear, an exciting race for the second prize was con- cluded by the Jack's the Lad beaflng her opponent, but was dis- qualified for fouling.

Reid ( cox) 8 An excellent start was effected by the three boats, in the course of which the Foam was having the best of it, when un- fortunately, near Higgiubotham's mill, the plaited twine in one of the rowlocks broke, and the oar unshipped, by which a con- siderable way was last. The Foam, however, pulled energeti- cally forward, but the distance so lost, considering her deter- mined opponents, was more than she could make up, and the race was won by the True Blue by two lengths, same distance between second and third. COXSWAINS' RACE ; Five splendid Silver Medals; to be pulled in 23- feet gigs, by bond fide coxswains. ST GEOBGE— T. Reid, ST. Brows, E. M'Lachlan, R. M'Cor- mick ( stroke), A.

A good start was effected, but it was apparent that our Dumbar- ton friends were to be the winners, as they took the lead, and kept it, coming in first by two lengths. SECOND HEAT. BLINK BONNY, Glasgow— J. Geddes, J. Calderliead, J. H. Calderhead, J. Carroll ( stroke), J. Auchincloss ( cox) 1 EXCELSIOB, Manchester— G. Williamson, J. Cronshaw, H. Ault, M. Taylor ( stroke), W.

A determined " spurt" was here put on by the Perseverance, but it was ineffectual, and after a capital contest the Foam came in first by about a length and a half. FINAL HEAT.

The day was beautiful, but the wind was light and variable, which prevented the yachts from displaying their sailing powers to perfection. The course was from the Commodore, which was moored off the east end of Helensburgh, round the shoals buoy, from thence round a flag- boat moored off Ardmore Point, and then round the Commodore; twice round iu the first and second races, and once round in the third and fourth. The duties of commodore were most efficiently dis- charged by James Smith, Esq, who also placed his yacht Wave at the disposal of the committee. FIRST RACE, for yachts of 8 tons aad under; first prize, an ele- gant Timepiece presented by James Smith, Esq, Commodore; second prize, a Pair of Cake Baskets. YACHT. TONS. OWNEB. I YACHT. TONS.

The Rose led till opposite jJLosueath Point, when her throat halyard gave way, which threw the lead into the hands of the Urania. The crew of the Rose, however, showed such expedition in getting under weigh again that they would have arrived first had not their peak halyard given way, which again threw them out; they arrived, however, a vcry good second. Crinoline gave up. Urauia, 4: 5: 47 ; Rose, 4: 7: 31. The winners of the various prizes having assembled on board the Commodore, Mr Smith presented the owners with their re- spective prizes, after which the company dispersed, the sports of the day being concluded. THAMES SUBSCRIPTION CLUB. The last out of- town dinner of this club took place on Monday, the 7th instant, at the Cremorne Hotel, Chelsea, when there was an unusally large attendance of members and their guests. Several new members were elected, aud it was announced that the next meeting would take place at the Freemasons' Tavern. The chair was taken by the Vice- President. CAXTON ROWING CLUB. One of the good results of the early closing movement on Saturday has been the establishment of the above club, whose existence dates about three months back, and who have got on so rapidly as to row their second match on Saturday week. The following was the result:— Red: J. Smith, F. Ibbott, C. Meek, F. Cross ( stroke), and A. Tomsett ( cox).— White: T. Wastell, W. Ellis, A. Woods, J. Harrison ( stroke), and S. Hartshorn ( cox).— Blue: T. Robertson, T. Jennings, G. Smythe, A. Wheeler ( stroke), and G. Frankland ( cox).— Yellow: J. Stotesbury, C. Hall, H. Bates, H. Harrison ( stroke), and E. Flood ( cox). It was one of the tightest four- oared contests seen for some time. They started all together at Putney, soon after which the lead was taken by Yellow, followed iu order by Blue, White, and Red to Salter's, where, between the first and last boats, there was not more than a length, all being so close. A slight foul then occurred between Red and White, who were coming up, when the others drew away again, but by hard rowing Red and White, who were oar and oar. passed Blue and then Yellow. The leading pairs kept level to Price's, when Red drew ahead, and at Battersea, the finishing point, there was oniy half a length between each of the first three boats. Yellow fell astern. SCULLERS RACE BETWEBN DAY AND DROUETT.— This race, for £ 30 a side, took place on Monday last, from Putney to Barnes Railway Bridge, and terminated in a most unsatisfactory way. T. Day of Wandsworth is well knownon the river asalands- man of no mean pretensions in the art of rowing, and Drouett, although unknown as yet to fame, is looked upon in his own im- mediate circle as a capital and game sculler ; so that there were plenty of supporters on either side. Three or four steam- boats accompanied the match, Citizen L being especially chartered for the conveyance of theunspires and the referee, John Phelps of Fulham. Henry Kelly, the Champion of the Thames, was in the bows of Day's cutter, and W. Blake undertook the pilotage ofDreuett. Day won the toss, and took the Middlesex shore, and at the start went away so rapidly with the lead that off Searle's he was considerably ahead. Soon afterthis Drouettcame up, got nearly level, and after rowing thus for anhort distance went gradually in advance. Passing the Crab Tree theyoommenced the usual crossing over, during which Drouett had increased his lead to more than a length, but soon after arriving on the Surrey shore, he got much too close iu, and Day began to overhaul him very fast, came up, and at length ran foul of him on his left- hand scull. On arriving at the White Hart, Barnes, the referee gave his verdict in favour of Drouett, who can have the stakes on calling at our office, on Thursday next, at noon, though he must be prepared with a guarantee to ensure the stakeholders against legal expenses; for we regret to say- that Day has thought proper to claim the money on the ground of Brouctt's cutter having gone ahead of him in the match contrary to the articles. That this has been entirely an after- thought, is manifest, else would uot his umpire have called the referee's attention to the circumstance at the time, or failing that, would it not have been Day's first business to make the complaint himself on arriving at Barnes ? With regard to the decision on the foul, we have only to say, that before it was made known we asked the opinion of many trustworthy water- men and amateurs, and that they all agreed there could not be a doubt in the matter. Both men have intimated their desire to row again; and if they are serious iu their intentions, they can meet on Thursday evening, at Mr Cusack's, Magpie and Stump, Chelsea. MALDON REGATTA.— This regatta cameoff under very favour- able circumstances. Mr Brooking acted as Commodore of the day. In the first match, betwtfen canoes pulled by boys, six started, and there was a good contest. The boats came in in the following order :— Two Brothers ( white), Grey ( blue), Sheldrake ( cheque- ed), Sevastopol ( yellow), Mary ( green). A prize was awarded to each. A match between canoes pulled by men fol- lowed ; they came in as follows, each receiving a prize :— Secret ( white and blue), Duck ( red and blue), Whet my Lip ( white), Dunbird ( pink), Blue ( blue), Scarlet ( chequered), Scarlet ( blue and yellow), and Jeannie ( green). The prize awarded to second- class open sailing- boats was won by the Brisk ( blue ensign), beating the Endeavour ( yellow). The prize for the first- class open sailing boats was won by the Prince of Wales ( red). Her competitors were the Victoria, the Clara, and the Neptune. In a match between hsftf- deck sailing boats the Jeannie ( red) was a successful competitor with the Thetis and The Friends. Iu a four- oared rowing match the Faith ( crimson) obtained the first place, the others being the Endeavour and the Yandew. Three sailing smacks— the Jane, the Anna Maria, and the Swan— next competed, and the two first obtained prizes. The Swan came in first, but was disqualified. The prize for four- oared row- gigs was well contested, and was won by the Mistake ( crimson), her competitor being the Victoria ( pink). There was also a good contest between ships' boats ; the Jane proved the winner by half a length. A duck hunt closed the day. HALES'S CREW T MAY'S CREW.— This four- oared race, to de- cide, we believe, which was to have the third prize in the last four- oared race of the club ( according to the wording of the articles) came off on Saturday week, and brought together a large number of spectators, friends of the parties, and others in small boats. The two crews are members of the Times Unity Rowing Club, and were accompanied by an umpire's eight, and betting was on Hales's crew, who were all along the favourites. The distance was from Putney Aqueduct Bridge to the Ship at Mort- lake; and Hales's crew had staked £ 12 to May's £ 10. The race was not very good, as there was a one- sidedness in it, but the pace was very fair. The following was the result: Hales's crew ( green) 1— Messrs C. Simons, W. Plume, R. Tyrrell, C. Hales ( stroke), and J. Went ( cox). May's crew ( red) 0— Messrs T. Sim- monds, C. Chapman, H. Forfar, E. May ( stroke), and A. Cauuell ( cox). Henry Salter was umpire. On going off May's crew took a lead of half a length, which they held a short time, when Hales's crew came up, challenged, aud presently passed them, hut the others stuck to them, and the race was ultimately won by two or three lengths. The winners can have the stakes by calling at our office on Thursday, at noon. COLNE REGATTA.— The annual regatta on the Colne attracted a large attendance, the weather being beautifully fine. The first match was a time race between oyster smacks, of from 15 to 35 tons. The following started : The United Friends, Field ; the Emily, Salmon; the Foam, Underwood; and the Swedeuborg, Marshall. The United Friends was awarded £ 8, the first prize; the Emily was awarded £ 2, and the Foam £ 1.— In the second match, a time race between vessels of 15 tons, the following started : The Vision, Martin; the Rubina Heard ; and the Active, Jeffries. The Vision, which obtained the first prize, re- ceived £ 6 ; the Rubina, £ 2 ; and the Active, £ 1.— A private match for a purse of £ 3, between the galleys of the Coast Guard and the Custom House, was won by the latter.— In the match between four- oared boats the competitors were, the Prima Donna, the Isabella, and the Adamant. The Prima Donna ob- tained the first prize, £ 2, and the Isabella was awarded the second prize of £ 1.— A duck hunt, as usual, closed the sports. PRIVATE MATCH AT RYDB.— A sailing match took place on Wednesday between two very fast pleasure boats, the Florence Nightingale ( Mr Pratt, owner) and the Fairy Queen ( George Drayton, owner), respectively about 12 tons. For some time past a great deal of " long talk" has taken place between the respective owners, and as much as a £ 50 challenge was offered to the Florence Nightingale, but the latter would not show until the present occasion. We have not heard what the stakes were; enough that the match came off immediately after the Ryde wherry match, course from Ryde pier round the Warner and back— a soldier's wind each way. The starting gun was fired from a steamer in the offing, when Miss Nightingale took the lead, and succeeded in rouuding the Warner Light vessel 5m 50sec in advance of the Fairy Queen, and on her return beat the latter by 8m 26sec. This match is decisive as to her supe- riority over the Fairy Queen. BURNS AND M'FARLANE V BELCHER AND BLTTHE.— Richd Burns and Wm. M'Farlane of Wandsworth rowed a very good race on Monday last against Wm, Belcher aud George Blyth, members of the Pimlico and Chelsea Unity Rowing Club, for £ 5 a side. Although for a small stake, there was a good deal of betting on the event, the Chelsea men being slightly the fa- vourites. Both pairs had been in training, Burns and M'Far- lane having given Lintill's, the Old Swan, at Battersea, a turn, and Belcher and Blythe training at their club house, the Magpie and Stump, Chelsea. Each was accompanied by a six, and Geo. Goodson of Chelsea was the umpire. They started from Putney Old Bridge at a rattling pace, the Wandsworth pair going off with a good lead. The Chelsea pair, although their steering son, F. Witcher ( oox), white, 1; Messrs G. Elsley, H. Richard- son, W. Ashford, J. Richardson, J. Willis ( cox), blue, 0; Messr ; J. Carnon, T. Harold, F.

TOM SAYBRS AND BROOME'S NOVICE.— Tom Sayers has covered the £ 20 sent by the Nevice last week according to pro- mise. His friend could not attend at the time appointed by Broome to toss for the last deposit, but is to call on Jemmy Massey of the Crown, Cranbourne- passage, who is deputed to act for Broome, this ( Saturday) morning, and we will next week complete the articles. This interesting match is now therefore fairly made. The Novice has been starring it at Bristol during the past week. Tom Sayers ttk es a benefit this ( Saturday) and Monday evening at the Victoria Theatre, Bewsbury, where he and Sergeant Beaumont will wind up. Tom is staying at George Bentley's, Dusty Miller, Dewsbury. TODDY MIDDLETON AND J. COOKSEY OP DERITEND.— These Birmingham men were matched to fight at 9st, for £ 15 a side. On Monday they met at J. Joiner's, the Malt Shovel, Palmer- street, Birmingham, to go to scale, when it was found that Mid- dleton v. ras nearly half a pound over his weight, whilst Coaksey was 8st 13lb. Cooksey did not, however, claim forfeit, as he might have done, but iuthe evening of the same day made the final deposit for the fight, and tossed for place of meet- ing, which he won, and named Stratfordon- Avon as the place Of m etinc, thereby waiving his right to a forfeit on account of weight. Both men have figured in the ring pre- viously with varied success. Each was reported to be in first- rate trim, and although the morning was a soaker on Tuesday, a pretty go- id muster was present at the place, the same spot on • which Brettle and Roger Coyne contended, three miles beyond Stratford. A good ring was pitched by the commissary, and the men made their appearance in the ring at half- past three o'clock. On moving that a referee be chosen, Cooksey said fee would not fight unless Middleton paid him £ 2 as a set- off for overweight, or denuded himself of his drawers, which of course was indignantly refused by Middleton and his friends. A good deal of angry recrimination took place. Cooksey's own friends endeavoured to prevail on him to fight, and after nearly two hours, no referee being agreed to, the men separated. A meeting took place on Thursday evening at the stakeholder's, Jemmy Welsh's, when it was arranged that the men should meet be- tween eleven and twelve on Friday morning, and fight it out, the man absent to forfeit. EDWARDS AND FITZ.— On Wednesday a mill took place for £ 5 a side between two middle weight novioes named Job Ed- wards and Jem Fitz. They fought for an hour and ten minutes, and the mill was one of the merriest seen for some time. Even- tually Edwards proved the winner, and the same evening the stakes were handed to him at Jemmy Massey's, Crown, Cran- bourn- passage, by the host, who was final stakeholder. NEWTON AND BLACK JOE — We have this week carefully perused all the letters relating to this disgraceful business, and of course find that as to many particulars there are as many one way as the other. In the main point, however, all agree, viz, that the referee decided distinctly that Newton was the winner owing to his haviog been strusk foul. The principal objections te our giving the stakes to Newton appear to be that the referee was one of his backers, and that the decision was not justified by the fact. With this we have nothing to do. The referee it is admitted was chosen by both parties, and his decision, right or wrong, must be abided by. Biack Joe wishes to increase the stakes and fight £ 100 to £ 80, but unless Newton agrees to this we shall forward the stakes to Newton, at G. Bradbury's, Fish- mongers' Arms, Shelton, Staffordshire. CAUNT AND NAT LANGHAM.— The final deposit of £ 20 a side for this all- important event is to be made at Nat Langham's, Cambrian, Castle- street, Leicester- square, on Wednesday next, when all the final arrangements will be talked over, and the whereabouts fixed. The interest iu the match appears to be equal to that caused by the late mill for the Championship. There is a good deal of betting, Caunt being rather the favourite. Both are in active training, Big Ben at Tring, and Nat in the neighbourhood of Stockbridge, and report speaks of their con- dition as something marvellous for two such veterans. Nat is looked after by Frank Widdowes of Norwich, and Ben by his uncle, who has ever been at his side throughout his career. It will be as well if the men communicate with us early in the week as to their intentions in fixing upon a likely spot, in order that something definite may be agreed on. BOB BRETXLE AND BOB TRAYERS.— These men have staked £ 10 a side in our hands, to fight at lOst 21b. Brettle says he is willing to weigh the mornyig of fighting, if it can be' accom- plished so as ta allow of their being early in the ring. TheBiack now says he is not so particular as to the scaling, and will con- sent to weigh the day before, rather than not go on. There is therefore no difficulty between them. If they depute us to do so, we will draw articles, on their sending us the date on which they wish to fight, and also particulars as to the deposits. CFIUTCHLEY AND MILLARD.— We have received £ 5 from Bob Brettle on behalf of Bodger Crutchley, to fight Sam Millard, for £ 50 a side, at 9st 81b, In the same ring with Brettle and Bob Travers. Millard says he is willing to go on, and is anxious for us to draw articles, but he does not believe the fight could come off in the same ring with Brettle and Travers. He would prefer fighting a week before or a week after that event. Each man has now staked £ 5 with us. holds his concerts every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday at half- past eight o'clock.

SEPT 1.— This, the third North and South match of the season, was begun at Nottingham on Monday last. The weathe1" was very unfavourable, and the ground consequently dead, which was the cause of the low scores in the two first innings. The match was made through the energetic exertions of J. John" son, Esq, a most liberal and ardent supporter of the game. The ground had been well looked after, but in consequence of a change of players much disappointment prevailed. For the South, Willsher was absent, owing to Lord Stamford's match with Stourbridge, and Martingell was substituted, whose services were found to be very useful. Mortlock played in the room of Dean, the latter standing umpire. Tinley and George Parr were absent from the North side. The match, therefore, to some extent, lost its interest, but, not- withstanding, a very large company attended on Monday and Wednesday. On Tuesday rain came on about one o'clock, and continued the whole of the day. Dean and Guy, the umpires, having selected tbe wickets, the bell announced play. North took possession of the wickets, sending in E. Stephenson and Grundy, to the bowling of Wisden and Griffith. They made a very long stand, running up the score to 29 before a separation was made, when Grundy was caught mid- on. H. Stephenson was tried at Wisden's end, but to no effect; Martingell was substituted for Griffith, from whom Grundy was caught; his figures were a four ( cut from Griffith), a three ( cut from Griffith), three twos, andsingles. Wadsworth, who was telegraphed for from Bradford in the room of George Parr, made a good leg hit for three, when Martingell, who was bowling admirably, scattered his timber ; two wickets for 37 runs. Martingell was ever on the spot, and Csffyn, too, who had taken the ball at Stephenson's end, bowled well ( e. g. nine overs for one run), and the whole of the Eleven were got out far 50 runs. Wright was caught at point by Lilly- white off a no- ball by Martiugell before he had scored. The in- nings terminated at a quarter past four o'clock. The South sent in Lillywhite and Caesar, and they having contributed 10, Cassar was well caught at cover slip. Like Mr Edwin Napper and Lilly- white, Csesar contributed six, all falling victims to the splendid bowling of Jackson. Caffyn had also to suecumb to him. The second wicket fell for 18 runs, the third for 20, and the fourth, Caffyn's, for 27. Lockyer also made the favourite figure of 6, and thus five fell for 35. Wisden and Mr Miller were at the wickets when the stumps were drawn, the latter with six and the former with seven attached to their names. Wisden, in making a drive from Jackson— an overpitch ball— was so severely hurt in the foot as to be disabled for the remainder of the match. He had, therefore, on TUESDAY, to give up his wicket. The total, over night, was 51, and only three more were added in the morning. Bell made a splendid catcli at long- leg in disposing of Stephenson. Mr Miller was caught at rather a losg- on, and Mortlock splen- didly by Jackson at short leg, the ball being hit very hard and low, round to the leg. Griffith was also well caught at cover- point by Wright, and in less than a quarter of an hour the remainder of the Eleven were disposed of, being only three ahead of their opponents, Jackson, it will be seen, had a hand in procuring the whole of the wickets that were got. North commenced their second innings, E. Stephenson and Clarke taking possession. Clarke was well caught in the slip, and Stephenson having added 11, the rain came on, and prevented further play ; one wicket down and 10 runs. On WEDNESDAY the game was delayed, oiring to the absence of Stephenson, who was " not out" over night. Sampson had arrived at the wicket just as Stephenson made his appearance on the ground, but the South men allowed him to return to make room for Stephenson, who should know that time is time, and in this case, it will seem, it actually caused a draw— always so un- satisfactory, and especially in a town like Nottingham, where so much interest and money depend upon the result. Stephen- son did not add to his score. Over night he made a splendid cut from Griffith for four, also a good cut from Lilly, who started with Caffyn, but was only on three overs. This, the second wicketfel for 18 runs; the third wicket ( Gundry's) for 19, and the fourth ( Diver's) for 23. Sampson and Anderson then got a hold, and brought Martingell at Caffyn's end, which change got the Sheffield bat away. Both on going to and coming from the wickets this player was loudly cheered. He played a fine in- nings of 10, made by a three ( leg hit from Griffith), two twos, & c; 40 runs were announced when he retired. Wadsworth fol- lowed, and also made 10 by two excellent leg hits from Martin- gcll for threes, & c. His, the sixth wicket, fell for 69, including a good many from Anderson, who was playing admirably. Bell was caught short- leg by Mr. Lockhart, who was fielding for Wisden. Wright now joined Anderson, and did something towards runningjhim out. The latter's splendid innings of 44 com- prised a four- fdriva from Martingell), five threes ( two were leg- hits and two cuts), six twos, and singles; he was very loudly cheered upon entering the pavilion. Wright hit almost a wide ball into his wicket, scoring 10, by a three ( excellent drive from Griffith), three twos, & c. Jackson brought out his bat for a very well- played innings of 16, made by a four ( drive from Martingell), a three ( leg- hit from Gruudy, three twos, and singles. The innings terminated at two o'clock for 115, leaving the South 112 to get to win, which task they entered upon after dinner. Lilly- white aud Caftyn made their appearance first. The former was bowled the fourth ball of the first over. Caffyn began in earnest; Mr Napper was caught by the long- stop; two wickets for 13 runs. Mr Miller was caught cover- slip, and Caffyn was then splendidly caught at long- leg by Mr Daft, who had come in the field as a substitute for Jackson, he having sprained himself. This break down was a sad blow for the North, for the bowling was then collared. This catch brought down a burst of applause from the spectators, and his figures were a four ( drive from J ackson), two threes ( drives from Grundy), four twos, and singles; this ( the fourth) wicket fell for 27 ruus, the fifth ( Martingeli's) for 29, and sixth ( Caesar's) for 36. Stephenson and Lockyer increased the score to 50, when Grundy dislodged the bails that Stephenson had been endeavouring to guard. Griffith and Lockyer caused some leather- hunting, which brought Diver on with the slows; the first ball he was well caught long- on from him; his nine comprised a three, two twos, & c. Mortlock, fol- lowed, and coatinued scoring with Lockyer until the stumps were drawn— a quarter to six o'clock. At this pe- riod, 15 runs were required and two wickets to fall. Jack- son now re- appeared in the field, and having taken the ball bowled the last over, but did not succeed in getting rid of the renowned Tom, who brought out his bat for a score of 36, made by a four ( drive from Bell), three threes ( drives), eis^ lit twos, and singles. Mortlock made a drive from Grundy for four, and from Diver for two, & c. The match, therefore, ended in a draw, and as the bowling was collared, it will be considered in favour of the South. A very heavy shower came on just before time was announced, which made it very difficult for the bowlers to stand. It is quite possible that the North aud South match will now become an annual match at Nottingham, and we trust the Tun- bridge Wells managers will make it also an annual match, so that the Nottingham contest may be its return, and thus create a vast amount of interest.

ERETBY PARK" v BURTON- UPOli- TRENT. This match was played at Bretby Park on the 29th August, Lord Stanhope having invited the Burton Club to play a match there on the occasion of his birthday. It was a one day's match, and was undecided, but at the close of the play v/ as in favour of Bretby. There was some excellent play on both sides. BURTON, BRETBY PARK. R. Ratcliff, Esq, run out 0 ; J.

SEPT 3.— This match was commenced on the ground of G. F Cooke, Esq, on Thursday week, and, from the fact that Surrey had not this year been beaten, it excited considerable interest. The weather was very unfavourable. The contest was fought entirely through the liberality of Mr Cooke, who bore the whole of the expense aud opened the ground free to everybody. The ground is situated near Eocles, about five miles from Manchester, and near the residence of the liberal sup « porter. Dean and Alfred Clarke were umpires, and Man- chester, having won the toss, went to the wickets. The Surrey bowlers were Griffith and Caffyn. Stephenson was unable to play, owing to illness, and Sutherton was substituted. Brockwell played in the room of Mr Lane. The ground being dead, very few runs were expected to be made. Davis played a splendid innings of 18, aud it is generally thought that so effi- cient a player, both in the field and with the bat, should not be left out for the North of England. His figures were three cuts for fours, a three, & c. Mr Rowley also played an excellent in- nings, making 21 by a three ( drive from Caffyn), three twos, and singles. The innings closed for 53, The wickets fell— one for 0, two for 9, three fer 24, four for 25, five, six, and seven for 26, eight for 33, nine for 53. Betting: 6 and 7 to 4 on Surrey. Brockwell and Mortlock made their appearance for Surrey, and having caused 6 runs to be scored the stumps were obliged to be drawn owing to rain. On Friday the play did not commence until three o'clock, in consequence of rain, but at half- past five the Surrey team were disposed of for 60! such was the admirable bowling of Wisden and the wicket- keeping of Hunt, and the fielding of Manchester. Caesar played a fine innings of 16, made by a three ( cut from Rowley), three twos, and singles. Mortlock also ex- hibited a masterly display of the game in scoring his 9, made by two threes ( drive and a cut), a two, & c. The wickets fell ad follows:— one for 14, two and three for 17, four for 28, five for 44, six for 48, seven for 51, eight for 58, nine for 68. Sutherton ( Sussex- born, though residing in Surrey) made an excellent square leg- hit for four from Rowley. Manchester began their second innings, and when the stumps were drawn Mr Cooke and Heighes had rubbed off the number and put one on, thus making a beginning on Saturday with a run ahead, which it will be found was pretty well wanted. Oa Saturday Mr Cooke increased his score from five to eight. Lilly, white and Wisden made a good stand, and, in fact, for the second time only this year did Surrey get collared, Wisden was caught in the slip, and Lillywhite at long square leg— an excellent catch by Moody. Hunt played a magnificent innings of 27. He let off many, but that may be attributed to the slowness of the ground. Mr Parkinson made 11 by a four, two twos, & c, and Mr Perera, a well- known member of the Brough- ton Club, made also a very handy eleven— making altogether a total of 99, leaving Surrey 93 to get to win, which task they en- tered upon with confidence of success. The Manchester wickets fell as follow :-- one for 9, two for 18, three for 25, four for 45, five for 56, six for 78, seven for 90, eight for 94, nine for 99. Mar- tingell bowled admirably, but the bowling of Griffith seemed to be greatly questioned. Shortly after two o'clock on Saturday Surrey commenced their work, and when four wickets bad fallen for 54 runs, itwas thought a certainty. The two first— Mortlock and Brockwell— made 27 before they were parted, when Brock- well was beautifully caught at cover- slip by Davis; the catch is particularly worthy of notice, it being low and sharp. Wisden afterwards gave Mortloek one he could not manage. Caesar was well stumped by Hunt, who kept wicket admirably; Caffyn's ( the fifth wicket) fell for 61, being caughf by the long st op. Sutherton's ( the sixth) for 75 ; the seventh ( Lockyer's) for 77, as did also the eighth ( Griffith's). Sixteen were now wanted to win, and three wickets to fall. The interest, therefore, at this period, may be easily judged. Surrey had not lost a match during the whole season, and yet, when Sherman, the last man, had almost vic: oryin hand, he ran in to Lillywhite before he had delivered the ball, and a " stumping case" was the result. The event was hailed with immense cheeriag, the match being con sequently decided in favour of Manchesterby3 runsonly. Score: MANCHESTER. lst inn 2d inn F.

During the early part of the week the English Funds were rather heavy, owing to the approach of the settlement, but since that was completed increased firmness has been apparent Speculation, however, is very quiet, as the operators ha^ e been desirous ofawaiting the Overland Mail before entering into new engagements. The advices are likely to have a very decided effect upon values, and until they arrive there is naturally a good deal of reserve. The public have invested to a very limited extent, and as many of the Transfer Books are closed, the general business of the market is curtailed. Consols closed yesterday at 90J 4 for money, and 90J for aocount. Exchequer Bills are still depressed. The latest prices, ou Friday afternoon, of the English Funds were— Bank Stock, shut Exchequer Bills, 7s to 4s dis India Bonds, 22s to 20s dis India Stock, 210 Consols for Account, 90J Reduced Annuities, shut Consols, 90f 4 New 3 per Cents, shut Long Annuities, shut During the past week the transactions in the Foreign Stock Market were of a very limited character, the principal variation in prices being about 4 per cent. Spanish Bonds improved about Turkisk Six per Cents and the Four per Cents Mexican declined i, Sardinian Russian Five per Cents J, and Dutch Bonds about J. The other securites dealt in were at about previous quotations. The latest prices of the Foreign Funds on Enday afternoon were— Belgian, 97 99 Sardinian, 88 90 Spanish 3 per Cents, 40£ f- Do Deferred, 25f Do Passive, 54 6 Turkish6per Cents, 951 Ditto, 4 per Cents, 99J Venezuela, 32| Dutch 24 per Cents, 64 60 Ditto 4 per Cents, 99| Brazilian, 101103 Buenos Ayres, 83 85 Chilian, 102 104 Equador, 134 144 Grenada, 22 23 Mexican, 2 If Peruvian, 79 Portuguese, 45 46 Russian, 109 111 In the Railway Sharo Market the transactions duriBg the week have been active, but prices in most instances have declined, and in some cases as much as 1 to 2 per cent. Bristol and Exeter, Great Northern, and South Western receded 1, North Eastern ( York) and South Eastern 14, North Eastern ( Berwick) If, and Manchester Sheffield and Lincoln, Caledonian, aud Great Western 2 to 24. North British advanced about 3. The foreign and colonial lines were flat, and in the majority of instances lower rates were current. Northern of France and Paris and Lyons declined 4, Grand Trunk of Canada 14, Great Western of Canada 4, and East Indian 1. Sambre and Meuse and Great Luxembourg were steady. British, Foreign, and Colonial Mining Shares were exceedingly dull, and at almost nominal quotations. Alfred Consols have receded about 5s to 10s. Cobre Copper have been steady. Joint Stock Bank Shares were dealt in to a very limited extent, aud exhibited little variation to report in prices. Bank of Eirypt, London and County, and London and West- minster are a shade lower, and Union of London advanced about 5s. In the Miscellaneous Market Crystal Palace have been depressed, and Peninsular and Oriental Steam advanced 10s. Watt. b Somner 9 M'Intosh, c and b Somner 0 J. Morrison, bT.

LIIAYWHITE'S COLLECTION OP SCORES FBOM 1746, IN PHE 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," < fcc, & c. The loan of score- 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.

THE MARQUIS OF DALHOUSIE AND THE INDIAN MUTINY. — The statement that Lord Dalhousie had given his pension of £ 5,000 a year towards the relief of the sufferers in India is untrue. His lordship, however, has given the handsome dona- tion ef £ 500. .

Burke, Bart, Marquis of Waterford, William Quin, Esq. Ranger: Robert Brown, Esq. Deputy Ranger and Keeper of the Match Book: John R. Hunter, Esq. Judge : Mr R. J. Hunter. Starter: Mr M. Clancy. Time only permitted us to give in our despatch from the course on Thursday afternoon the particulars of two races, one of which— Her Majesty's Plate— fell to the ground in consequence of the foul riding of Prizefighter's jockey, and the improper con- duct of the rider of Spero, these two horses being first and se- cond, and none other placed. The cross was alleged tD have taken place about the chains, inside of which, when Prizefighter's jockey would not make way, Suowden struck him with his whip, and afterwards pitched into the horse two or three times. The weight of evidence went to show that Prizefighter did not at all interfere with Spero taking his proper place had he been able, but his jockey swore so home to the " cross," that the Ranger and Stewards came to the following decision :— " The Ranger and Stewards of the Turf Club disqualify the two horses, Prizefighter aud Spero, for the Queen's Plate, run for to- day; and, no horse having been placed third, the race falls to the ground, aud all bets are off. ( Signed) " ROBEBT BEOWN, Ranger. " THOMAS BUKKE, \ Stewards " WATEBFOED, > of the " WM. QUINN, ) Turf Club.' So singular a circumstance, we believe, never occurred in respect of any previous Royal gift, aud though it may for the while remain in her Majesty's Exchequer we are sure it will not be diverted from the purpose originally intended. Respecting thrs very Plate we have on more occasions than one pointed out the little chance given to the two year olds, 2stl01b not being weight sufficient between them and the three j ear olds at this period of the year. It is true ona hears, year after year, at what wonderfully short weights youngsters can " do" old ones; but when the money is down and the jockeys up the result is far different. Should the authorities be adverse to changing the weights, might they not change the distance to say a mile or a mile aud a quarter, and admit the old horses at adequate weights, for we can see neither sense nor reason in their being excluded. The race for the Stewards' Plate succeeded that lor her Majesty's, the field exceeding it by one— a dozen starting. It resulted in the easy success ot Sunbeam— discarded from the Conyngham Lodge stable for the consideration of a " pony," in June j 20 to 1 freely offered against her, and taken only to a sovereign or two by her owner ! The principal two year old race ef the meeting— the Railway Stakes— was then decided; upon which speculation had at first taken a pretty wide range, but the betting was, at the las 5, confined to two— Odessa aud the filly by Amiawdale, dam by Birdcatcher, the former having by far the stronger party, owing to the forward position she ob- tained in the race for the Anglesey's en the previous Tuesday. The Knight of Malta had, as usual, the support of his owner— though on this occasion rather lukewarm— and a few stuck to Zaidee, whose superb condition it was found might just get her through, notwitstandingthe5lb penalty. Sirl'hos. Burketookthe starting in hand, and at the second attempt they were got off in close order, and the result of a slow run race was the easy suc- cess of the Aunandale filly, The Knight of Malta upsetting all previous calculation by obtaining second honours, such in and out running going far to prove the little worth of all the Irish two year olds. The winner is nothing very particular to look at, being under- sized, but lengthy and well coupled. She was brought to the post in the liuest form by W. Scott, of Holywell, and to her superb condition doubtleas her success is chiefly owing. The attendance on the last day of the meeting scarcely equalled any of the preceding, but the sport continued of the same interesting character as from the commencement. The Coffee Room Stakes, the first event decided, ended in a match between St Patrick and the Faugh a Ballagh fiily out of Alice May; 3 to 1 was freely laid on the former, but he " choaked up" at the distance, and the filly won easily. Four ran for the Waterford Stakes, which was one of the best contested races of the meeting, between the stable companions, Sweetcake and Champion, the latter being defeated by a short neck only. The little Citron then defeated a field of seven for the Mares, Plate, but unfortunately broke down on the near hind leg, when in the act of pulling up. Piuwire was a freat " pot" for tha Flying Stakes, but the half of the falf- mile proved quite long enough for her, aud Simpleton placed it to his owner's credit without changing ownership. The Selling Stakes proved a better friend to the fund, the winner Five and Twenty ( known previously as Friday II.), fetch- ing 70 guineas at auction. The Corinthian Stakes, protracted to heats as usual, brought the meetiug to a close, Billy ( late Cossey) flooring the three year olds with such ease that it stamps them a lot of wretches. The start for it, we had almost omitted to mention, was delayed for upwards of an hour, owing to a thunderstorm that broke over the Curragh shortly after the termination of the Selling Stakes, accompanied by a deluge of rain, equal in intensity to the out- pouring of a water- spout, and which soon rendered the running ground exceedingly heavy. Subjoined are full details :— THURSDAY, SEPT 3.— The SIEWAEDS' PLATE of 50 sovs ( second class) for all horses ; Waterford Post; 16 subs. Mr Bell's ch f Sunbeam, by Iago, S yw, list 21b.. D.

An indifferent start was effected at the third attempt, Fabiola, who was run against with one or two others, getting badly off. Sans Culottes led at a rattling pace to the chairs, where The Hawk, Alfred, and Sunbeam reached him. Half- way up the rails Sunbeam Bhowed in advance, followed by Al- fred to the end of the Stand, where the Arab Maid, who laid off at the early part of the race, passed the latter, but failed to reach Sunbeam, who won in a canter by two lengths, Alfred finishing a length from the Arab Maid ; The Hawk an indifferent fourth.

Zaidee got away with a slight lead, which she held to the chains, where the Annadale filly took up the running, attended by The Knight of St George and Odessa, in which order the race progressed to the finish, the Annandaie filly winning easily by four or five lengths; half a length between second and third. Nothing else near.

Sweetcake jumped off with the lead, Canary lying close with her for half the distance, when dropping off Champion took the lead, and appeared to have the best of it at the end of the Stand, but Sweetcake running the longest won a remkarkably fine race by a short neck, Canary a bad third, and Clare beaten off.

Agitation rushed to the front the instant the flag dropped, and was soon leading several lengths, which she increased as she went along to at least four hundred yards, it appearing almost an impossibility for any- thing to overhaul her. Across the flat, however, she showed symptoms of declining, not however before she had settled the ohances of all in the race except Citron, who, admirably ridden, crept to her between the Anglesey post and the chains, made her safe in a few strides, and won easily by three lengths. England's Beauty cantered home third, and Alcyone fourth. After passing the winning chair Citron broke down, a like casualty befalling Miss Tom in the early part of the race. The FETING STAKES of 3 sovs each, with 25 added; the winner to be sold for 100 sovs; half a mile. Mr Hoysted's b g Simpleton, by Tearaway, 6yrs, 8st....

Pinwire held a slight lead to the distance, where Simpleton got in front, soon had the race in hand, and won easily by a length, The Hawk beating Pinwire for second by a head. Simpleton was afterwards offered at auction, but no one was found venturesome enough to invest at the selling price, 100 sovs. The SELLING STAKES of 5 sovs each, with 25 added; weight for age, with selling allowances; one mile; 5 subs.

None of the others tried for the heat.— Second heat: 2 to 1 agst Ribbonman, 3 to 1 agst Meigh Dair, 4 to 1 agst Billy, and 5 to 1 agst The Tattler. Meigh Dair made play to the turn, where Billy took the lead, and held it to the end, winning cleverly by two lengths.— Third heat: 2 to 1, and 5 to 2 on Billy. The four ran in close company to the chains, where Billy took the lead, and won in a canter by three lengths; three lengths between second and third, Meigh Dair last, not. being persevered with. JEJJKINST0WN PARK RACES. Stewards: Viscount St Lawrence and George Bryan, Esq- Judge: Mr R. J. Hunter. Starter: Mr J. H. Coats worth- Secretary and Treasurer: E. J. Maher, Esq. Though scarcely so numerously attended as last year, this meeting, as regarded sport, was by far the best that has taken place in the county Kilkenny for many years. It commenced with the Trial Stakes, for which four only out of the nine entered reached the starting- post, and the jockeys of all, except Bundle, taking it into their heads to start themselves, ran the course throughout, though repeatedly called back by the starter, Sans Culotte being first past the winning- post by half a neck. In the race itself he ran currish, and was defeated easily by Remedy. The Hunters' Plate was contested by five, of which The British Lion was made the favourite, but after two very finely contested heats he suffered defeat from Longford, Owing I to the fractiousness of The Tattler much time was wasted before the horses could be got off for the Jenkinstown Park Stakes, i and for it another unfortunate blunder occurred, the jockeys, as before, starting themselves, and all ruuniug4he course through- out, except The Tattler and The Baker, The Zouave passing the winniag chair first and Gamekeeper second. For the actual i race The Baker then became the leading favourite, as little as j 2 to 1 being freely taken about him, but he was beaten half a mile from home, and Gamekeeper and The Zouave just reversed places at the finish, theformer winning a splendidly ridden race by a short half neek. For the Selling Stakes four ran, aud Five and Twenty won pretty cleverly, finding a new owner at the hammer for 95 sovs. The Fanners' Plate, won easily by Fabiola, brought an excellent afternoon's sport to a close at a quarter past Ave o'clock. WEDNESDAY, SEPT 9.— The TBIAL STAKES of 4 sovs each, with 40 added, p. p.; three quarters of a mile ; 9 subs. Mr J. Keating's bf Remedy, by The Cure, 3 yrs, 7st 81b ( 100 sovs) L.

At the second attempt an excellent start was effected, the lot runuing in a cluster paet the Stand, The Baker having a slight lead, Billy and The Tattler being his noxt followers. In this order they ran to the upper turn, where The Tattler took up the running, and was soon leading four or five lengths, The Zouave following him clear of the ruck, at the head of which was Gamekeeoer. At the distance The Zouave closed with The Tattler, had him safe half way up the rails, appearing to have the race iu hasid, when The Gamekeeper came with a tremendous rush, caught him within a stride or two of the post, aud w in by a short neck, Billy, The Tattler, and Meigh Dair finishing close together some three lengths from the second.

THE BIGGAR ST LEGEB.— The coursing public will be sorry to learn that, owing to recent illness, Mr Nightingale is unable to judge at this meeting, having been advised by his medical at- tendant to refrain from . judging or any such violent exercises for some time to come. This will be a great disappointment to a large circle of old friends and sportsmen throughout the king- dom, by whom he was most highly and deservedly valued; and we sincerely wish him a speedy and permanent recovery. The vacancy at this meeting, we believe, will be filled up by the votes of the subscribers, and that the office of slipper will be again, as on former occasions, ably filled by Mr White, jun, of Douglas Castle. _________ HUNTING MEMS. " DICK CHRISTIAN .— The veteran writes us ( from Chapel- street, Melton), that this is the first season for half a century that he has been disent- aged, aud that although he is not able to ride to hounds as of yore, he would be very thankful for an engagement to make young horses fcandy, either for ladies or gentlemen, during the present cubhunting season. We hear that Tom Hills, who was with Mr Colyer last season, is the new huntsman to the Hambledon. The Devon aud Somerset Staghounds will meet on Tuesday at the Marsh Bridge Kennel, and on Friday at Cloutsham, at half- past ten.
