CHARLES OAKLEY'S information on the above important races is of a very first- rate character, and ought to be acted upon immediately. C. Oakley's selection for the Liverpool Cup he thinks as good as his especial choice ( Fairwater) for this race last season. With respect to GLORIOUS GOODWOOD, C. Oakley begs to state there is not the slightest change in his opinion ; his horses for the Goodwood Stakes and Cup are doing capital work, and fit to run for a kingdom. All connected with the animals deem winning a certainty, fearing nothing in the race. The Goodwood Stakes C. Oakley considers especially good for investment, and does not hesi- tate to assert he never felt more confident of winning, and strongly urges all who want to realize a capital stake to get on his choice a" t once. Remember C. Oakley won both these races last year, and never lost the Goodwood Stakes, having named the winner of this important and exciting race for the last eight years in succession. The following were C. Oakley's bona fide selections. THE GOODWOOD STAKES. Quince 1855 won Pretty Boy 1856 won Leamingtoa 1857 won The Roman Candle 1858 won Starke 1859 won Wallace 1860 won Elcho 1861 won and last not least his truly brilliant selection Boabdil ( sent at 50 to 1) 1862 won For the many other glorious " hits" he has made, he begs to refer to Bell's Life. In this paper are recorded his triumphant victories. His success as a Turf adviser has been indeed truly astonishing; the im- mense patronage he is honoured with alone is a " proof of the valuable character of his advice. C. Oakley in returning his sincere tliauks to his old subscribers for their continued support, begs to assure them their liberal patronage is fully appreciated, and they may rest assured no effort shall be wanting ou his part to justify their continued patron- age. To those, then, who feel the want of a faithful, talented, and suc- cessful monitor on racing matters, let them apply at once to Charles Oakley, who, from his great experience, and extensive meaus of procur- ing the very best information, stands unrivalled.

Some of the markets in the provinces have been well, and others scantily supplied with Wheat. At most of tliem farmers, emboldened by the" temporary demand iu London on French account, have been demanding higher rates which has interfered with business, and only in a few cases have last week's prices been exceeded. Grinding and dis- tilling Barley have been in fair request at former rates. Oats in some cases have been rather cheaper. Beans, Peas, and Flour have been steady as to demand, and prices have liardly varied. The supply of all kinds of grain of English growth at Mark- lane this week has been ex- ceedingly small, and the arrivals from foreign ports altogether lighter. The market being badly attended to- day, coupled with the promising appearance of the crops, the tone of the Wheat trade was heavy, at Mon- day's prices. Flour was quiet, without any change In the quotations. Barley steady in price, but not much done. There was a fair inquiry for fine Oats at the late reduced rates; otherwise, the trade was dull. Beans were in moderate request at full rates, and Peas quite as dear.— Essex, Kent, ana Suffolk, old white, 49s to 63s: ditto, new, 40s to 50s; ditto, old red. 49s to 51s; ditto, new, 40s to 49s; Norfolk, Lincolnshire, and Yorkshire, 40s to 49s.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET, TXIUBSDAY.— At market to day there was a plentiful supply of Beasts, and they met with a quiet demand at a decline 2d per stone, the primest Scots making 5s per 81b, but other breeds moved off heavily at barely late rates. The supply of Sheep was seasonably extensive. Downs and lialf- breds made 5s 2d per 81b; otherwise, the Mutton trade was slow. We have to report a dull Inquiry for Lambs, on rather easier terms. The top figure was « s 6d per 81b. There was a large number of Calves on sale, and the Veal trade was heavy, at a decline of 4d to 6d per 81b.

NEWGATE ANB LEADENHALL MARKETS.— The supply at these markets, although moderate, has been sufficient for the demand, which has been active, yet it has been sufficiently good to maintain prices.— Inferior Beef, 3s Od to 3s 4d; middling, 3s 6d to 3s 8d; prime large ditto, 3s I0d to 4s Od; prime small ditto, 4s 21 to 4s 4d.

HOP MARKET, BOEOUGH.— The accounts from the plantations have not differed in any material particular from those received last week, and under these circumstances the transactions in the Borough have been uninfluenced by them.

This object is aimed at by some vain men, who show how little they appreciate the principles and institutions of their country. Though, no doubt, asserting for themselves at all times all the principles of freedom, and claiming in every public and private matter the benefit of those principles, they desire, as against others, to be able to use all the powers of despotism. We repeat that in this their folly is supreme. This clause in the Volunteer Bill is a matter for deep regret; it is so with respect to the character of those who advocate it, since it shows that, though happening to be born in England, they are really lovers of despotic government, that is when they can be the despots. It is so with respect to the volunteer movement itself, of which it imperils the continuance and the increase. There is yet hope that the House of Lords may reject the noxious and discreditable clause. DRESSMAKERS. Public sympathy has been strongly aroused on behalf of this class of workpeople, and there is a demand for the interference of legislation. The demand is hard to be gratified. It implies such a performance of other people's work by the authority of the Legislature as would soon be deemed an intolerable burden. An act of Parliament to compel all workrooms to be of a certain size, and furnished with certain means of ventilation, would be difficult to enforce even at first, and would soon be looked upon as such a tyranny that the evasion or disregard of it would be treated with indiffer- ence. A worse state of things than the present would then exist. For now public opinion is not indiflerent, and it must have some effect even on the task mistresses of poor dressmakers. We have little doubt that, at a small expense ( contemptibly small as com- pared with the good results that would be produced), the close workrooms and still closer bedrooms of the metropolis might be freed from all their dangerous qualities. Good ventilation without drafts is not such a difficult thing to achieve as fanciful and obsti- nate people assert. As to this part of the matter it is compara- tively easy of arrangement. But there is something else which is difficultoi'management, anda3 to which legislative enactments may be necessary, and yet the necessity i3 one which for the common interests of masters and workpeople ought to be avoided. This is the settling of the hours of work. In many cases a rigid rule on this subject would be the cause of disappointment on both sides. But, perhaps, a kind of " sliding scale" of rates of payment might be introduced which would make it the interest of the employers not to stretch too much the working hours of the day, and would afford some compensating advantages to the workpeople when called on for extra exertion. This exists in some trades, why should it not be universal among dressmakers ? The subject is one of the greatest difficulty, for hardly any unbinding rule could be laid down that would not on some occasion be deemed objection- able by one or other of both the parties concerned. In the meantime, much might be done by ladies not waiting till the last moment before ordering their dresses, and by all per- sons concurring in the censure of those who needlessly exacted severe labour, or cruelly compelled its performance in unhealthy apartments. __ THE DEAMA, THE ALEXANDRA. What the violent partisans of the Federals have so urgently de- manded has been done. A vessel has been seized, and its condem nation asked, on the ground that it was being prepared for hostile service against a state with which England is at peace. The impossibility of enforcing, except by a direct suspension of all law, the desires of certain partisans has now been definitively shown. The case was presented for adjudication in the form most favourable for those who desired to obtain a conviction. The Attorney- General has done all that could be done to gratify Northern wishes, and he has failed. He avoided everything which might rouse popular feeling against him. He did not pro- ceed against individuals to subject them to personal penalties, and thus expose himself to all the force of an address to the feelings of the j urymen. He did nothing to excite public sympathy for the defendants against him as their prosecutor. He also avoided in- curring the risk of being stopped by an adverse finding on a bill of indictment. He skilfully and sensibly used the means at his disposal as the representative of the prerogative power of the Crown, and filed an information against a vessel as subject to con- fiscation for • a violation of a statute. The owners of the vessel appeared to deny this liability to confiscation. The question could not have been tried in a form less dangerous to the prosecu tion. It was presented to the jury as one purely of a legal kind. Partisanship and prejudice were thus, as much as possible, shut out from the inquiry. What has been the result of a prosecution so inoffensively brought before a jury ? The demand of the Govern- ment has been rejected, and the vessel declared not liable to con- fiscation. And why 1 Because, unless all the rules of law, which are the real safeguards of life and liberty and property, were disregarded, the Government could not establish a case which amounted to a violation of the statute law. Suspicion enough might exist, inferences from suspicious circumstances might be very strong, but, unless a verdict; of guilty was to be founded on presumptions only, which none but a wilful despot or an arrant slave would ever assert, there wa3 an impossibility of establishing legal guilt. And so it must ever be in such cases, if men are but commonly prudent. The Americanlawyers, on whose authority the Lord Chief Baron very wisely placed his exclusive reliance, had laid it down most distinctly that Americans might, without violating any law, build a ship and send it to be pur- chased by any belligerent. This was the utmost that had been done here, indeed, move than was known to have been done, for there was no undoubted sale to a belligerent; the consequence was a verdict which releases the ship. It may be very inconvenient to the Northerns that such a result should take place, and that it should be founded upon the doctrines of their own lawyers, but they must submit to such an inconvenience, for they can hardly expect that that which their tiwa rulers and legists have asserted on their behalf to be good law, should be entirely disregarded when it happens to be un- favourable to their wishes. The real interests of England suffer from this readiness of some among us to contribute to the support of the strife in America, and no honourable man can admire any one who, merely for his own pecuniary profit, assists either party. But though we may morally condemn these selfish assistants of civil strife, they are, if they have ordinary astuteness, out of the reach of legal correction and punishment. HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.— The career of M Gounod's opera of " Faust" is unimpeded by any interruption, and has been repeated on every opera night during the week. The garden scene appears to be an especial favourite with the habitues of the theatre, aHd the grand quartet increases in favour nightly. We do not remember ever to have seen Signor Giuglini in a part where he takes so much pains, and in the air Salve dinora''_ his singing is both refined and classical. Of Mr Santley it is im- possible to speak in too high praise; his death scene is as finely conceived as it is nobly developed, and the curse is given with an intensity of expression which, for grand vocal declamation, has never been surpassed. Mdlle Titiens, Mdlle Trebelli, and Mdlle Taccani aid the effect of the opera by the charms of their voices and the zeal they display throughout its course. ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA.— Nothing new has been presented here since our last notice, " II Barbiere," " Don Giovanni,'' " Masaniello," and " Martha" being still on the bills. Great pre- parations are being made to produce M Gounod's " Faust,'' with every possible magnificence, care, and attention to the most minute details as regards scenery, costumes, and general de- corations. The cast will be a strong one, and will comprise Madame Miolan Carvalho in her original character of Marguerite, Signor Tamberlik as Faust, Bignor Graziani as Valentine, Signor Tagliafico as Wagner, Madame Didiee as Siebel, Madame Lustani as Marta, and M Faure as Mephistophiles. Tuesday next is the night appointed for this great operatic event to come off, and a large circle of musical dilettanti and musical amateurs are look- ing forward to a great musical treat. PRINCESS'S THEATRE.— Shaksptre's tragedy of " Othello" was played at this house on Saturday, the 20th inst, for the purpose of introducing Mr Walter Montgomery to a London audience. This gentleman, who has been so long and favourably known in the provinces, especially at Manchester, had been engaged to appear at the Lyceum by Mr Fechter for some months past, but owing to the extraordinary success of " The Duke's Motto" he has had no opportunity of appearing. Naturally tired of an inactive life, and desirous of acquiring a metropolitan fame, Mr Montgo- mery threw up his engagement with Mr Fechter, and en- listed himself in the service of Mr Vining. To restrain his appearance Mr Fechter sought the powers of Chancery, but those omnipotent rulers declined to issue an injunction, and Mr Montgomery actually made his debut at this house. It is not fair to judge on a first hearing of any actor, more especially in a part so arduous as that of the fiery and jealous Moor, but we can pronounce the new comer as the possessor of a good stage face and figure, and as being a master « f the elocutionary art. At times he exhibited a keen sense of dramatic exigencies, particularly in the scene where Othello demands the handkerchief from his unhappy wife, and his eotire performance testified to a long course of study of the part. He was very well received by a house crowded in every part, and it is only fair to state that his performance gave evident satisfaction to the large audience assembled to bear him. Mr Marston, as Iago, though a little too demonstrative, was very efficient; and Miss Atkinson, as Emilia, excellently adapted for the character. Mr Verner, as Cassio, displayed much intelligence; and Mr Roxby, as Roderigo, was clever and zealous in the several humorous scenes where he appears. Miss Ellen Terry as Desdemona was gentle, graceful, and full of refine- ment, and in her principal scenes more earnest than most repre- sentatives of the part. On Wednesday " Romeo and Juliet" was performed, Mr Montgomery taking the part of the ardent lover with great success, while the character of Juliet was sustained by a young French lady, Mdlle Stella Colas, from the Theatre Fran- cais, Paris, and the Imperial French Plays at St Petersburg. This lady awakened quite a furore by her expressive delineation of this sweetest of the Shaksperian heroines ; her entire performance be- trayed a perfect acquaintance with the text of our great dramatist, and was throughout a full and impassioned conception, devoidof all unmeaning conventionalisms. Some of her gestures and poses were highly natural and replete with beauty. She has a very agreeable face and good stage presence, and a voice whose tones are true and sympathetic in quality. Time alone will enable her to conquer more completely than she has hitherto done the Eng- lish accent, though this defect is by no means unpleasantly ob- trusive. Her success was genuine. She was called and recalled after more than one of the acts of the play, and received with un- bounded enthusiasm. Mrs Marston's acting as the Nurse was perfect, not a paint of the part misunderstood; and the Friar Lawrence of Mr Marston was especially good, both for its decla- matory power and its poetic significance. STRAND THEATRE.— A new comedietta, called " While there's Life there's Hope,'' will be produced on Monday, June 29, at this house. Mr W. H. Swanborough will appear in the principal character. ADELPIII THEATRE.— Announcements, repeated from time to time, that the ghost was engaged to appear at this theatre, ex- cited public curiosity to an unusual degree, and caused the theatre to be densely crowded on Saturday, the 20th inst, when a drama called " The Haunted Man" was produced for the first time. This, as its name implies, was nothing more than a dramatised version of one of Dickens's Christmas stories of the same title, and its interest consists in the circumstance of a gentleman being haunted by himself in spite of himself. Mr Phillips plays this part with great ability, and Mr Toole and Mrs Mellon, as Mr and Mrs Tetterby, are both inimitable: but the mainspring and attraction of the piece consists in the illusion maintained by means of the same apparatus as is exhibited by Professor Pepper atthe Polytechnic, and by means of which afigure suddenly appears and vanishes in the most shadowy, ghostl} 7 manner possible. These mystic appearances and departures gave great satisfaction to a very large audience. MONDAY POPULAR CONCERTS.— There are to be two more con- certs before the termination of the season, the first to take place © n Monday evening, June 29, when Mr Sims Reeves will take a benefit, and will sing " Adelaida," accompanied on the piano by Madame Arabella Goddard. Madame Alboni and Mr Santley will be also amongst the vocalists; and Herr Japfaa, the new vio linist, and Signor Piatti will perform during the evening. The second and last concert will be given July 6, when Madame Ara- bella Goddard and Mr Charles Halle will play together, and Madame Dolby and Mr Sims Reeves will sing. MR AND MRS HOWARD PAUL.— These very pleasant enter- tainers will shortly return from their continental engagements; they are about to produce a new version of the story of " Era Dia- volo,'' written by Mr William Brougb. LITEEATXJEE. RESPECTABLE SINNERS ; A NOVEL. By MRS BROTHERTON. [ London: Hurst and Blackett.]— This is a very good novel, the language, incidents, and conduct of the plot being better than in those hundred and one productions of which there are so many, and whose merits are so few. It is an English story, told by an English lady in an easy, unconstrained, and perfectly natural style, and we cordially recommend it to our readers for their pe- rusal during these bright summer days. We will not spoil the interest of the tale by letting out any of its incidents or giving the names of our favourites in it, but we may particularise the cha- racters of Tatt and the lordly Mr Hartley as being as true to the life as they are ably drawn. It is a novel which is, moreover, honourably distinguished by being free from morbid sensational horrors. IL PELLEGRINO ; OR, WANDERINGS AND WONDERINGS. By Captain J. C. CLAYTON. [ London: T. C. Newby.]— The author of this book has embodied in it his experiences of things in gene- ral as they are to be seen in Italy, Switzerland, and other places, and has written what cannot otherwise be called than most amu- sing, Not content with recording his impressions of foreign travel and strange customs, he has entered his solemn protest against hasty and ill- considered marriages, and devoted many long passages to the question, giving his advice with a genuine fatherly feeling and spirit. The description of Sicily is, to our thinking, the best part of the work ; indeed the second volume, which contains it, is unquestionably the most entertaining. How- ever we may differ in some of the opinions and conclusions which Captain Clayton has arrived at, we must give him credit for an unreserve and a frank, manly, outspoken candour which is quite refreshing in these days, when a simple fact is so often veiled in mystery. THE VOLUNTEERS. The moment at which public feeling is most deeply shocked by the discovery that a system of uncontrolled despotism exists with respect to the government of the army in India, is that which is^ i^ Sbsen for establishing a system of uncontrolled despotism in gi^ Srning the English volunteers; and the House of Common8 i^ tens to record its vote in favour of such a system. How many colonels of volunteers may be found in that house it is difficult to say, but the argumentation on the subject of authorising any volunteer colonel, by his own authority, to expel a volunteer, officer or private, from a regiment, strongly reminds the reader of the fable of the Lion and the Sculptor. The volunteer colonel is to have everything his own way—" discipline must be preserved" — and the only way to preserve it is to invest him with despotic power. This is the argumentation. The selfishness of it is apparent enough, and the folly of it not less so. It is little cre- ditable to any one who uses it, and least of all to an Englishman. The English rale is that the judgment of a man's peers shall alone condemn him. The desire of the volunteer colonels is that there shall be no judgment, for that there shall be no inquiry, that no peers shall be summoned to hear an accusation, but that punish- ment shall be inflicted at the mere volition of the commanding officer. This un- English scheme is founded on reasoning as ad- verse to sense and experience as it is to justice. It as- sumes flfst that the colonel will always be in the right, and the subordinate always in the wrong— an assumption which recent facts do not quite justify; next that the colonel's opinion and conduct must be adopted and approved by all the officers and men of the regiment, and yet, with the strangest inconsistency, it declares that because it will be so, their opinions shall not be " asked upon the matter at all. So that, assuming them to agree with the colonel, they are not to be asked to declare that they do agree. His decision is to stand alone, unsupported by the adherence of those around him. A wise colonel would re- ject such a scheme at once, for he would always wish to be sup- ported by the declared opinion of those around him. A foolish and presumptuous one will grasp at the scheme. Its very folly recommends it to him. Yet his fancy for it is one of a suicidal kind so far as regards real authority. For no authority is so powerful as that which is founded upon the judgment of those who are not the persons actually to exercise it. In a nation where public opinion is the great stronghold of authority, the very sem- blance of it is sought to be extinguished among the volunteers. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. FRANCE. The Pays, in an article signed by its editorial secretary, assert8 that France, far from wishing to treat directly with Russia, is more than ever determined to make the Polish question an European one. The Constitationnel publishes an article on the Polish question, signed by M Paulin Limayrae, who, in reply to those who assert that England ought not to proceed beyond diplomatic action, says:—" It should be understood that as the question is an European one, it must be resolved by the common action of Europe.'' It blames England for inaction. M Billault lias been appointed Minister of State in place of M Walewski, whose resignation has been accepted by the Emperor. The decree nominating M Billault to this post places among his functions those exercised by the Ministers without portfolio. Part of the functions appertaining to the Ministry of State are transferred to the Ministry of the Emperor's Household, and another part to the Ministry of Educatian. Public Worship is assigned to the Ministry of Justice. The direction of the Moniteur will enter among the duties of the Minister of the Interior. The following are the remaining appointments which have been made:— M Baroche, Minister of Justice ; M Boudet, Minister of the Interior; M Duruy, Minister of Education; M Behic, Minister of Agriculture, Commerce, and Public Works; M Rouher, Minister President of the Council of State; M de Morny, President of the Corps Legislatif. La France says:— " It appears certain that the foreign policy of the Government will undergo no change." Yet M Walewski ( a Pole by his mother's side, and the son of Napoleon and a known friend of the Poles) is dismissed, and M Billault, a person without any settled political principles whatever, is appointed in his stead. Persigny is got rid of from the Ministry of the Interior, and a special mis- sion to St Petersburg is stated to be intended for him. ITALY. Despatches from Rome announce that by order of General Dumont, the French gendarmes have arrested the brigand chiefs Stramenza and Tristany. There have been some hot party de- bates in the chambers, which the folly and impudence of Ratazzi converted into a personal quarrel. Ho lie and Minghetti, his suc- cessor in office, have been absurd enough to go through the folly of a duel with sabres. AUSTRIA. The draft of the address from the Upper House, in answer to the Speech from the Throne, dwells upon the necessity for Austria to support the national and religious interests of tua Poles, but also advocates a pacific policy and the maintenance of the integrity of the Austrian empire. The Czech members of the Reichsrath have forwarded to the Chamteer of Deputies a collective protest notifying their absence from the Austrian Parliament, and ex- plaining the motives by which they are actuated. POLAND. The National Government has published a warning to the citizens of Warsaw that the Russian Government is desirous of ex- citing a rising in that capital. Eight hundred and sixty- nine gentlemen are confined as prisoners in the fortress of Dunaburg. Six hundred persons, partly public functionaries and partly gen- tlemen, are shut up in the barracks at Moiiilew, while ladies and aged men have been brought bound into the city. M Krzy wieki, the Minister of Public Worship at Warsaw, has sent in his resig- nation. Although positively denied by the Russian journals, the fact is that the Russian Government first commenced a persecu- tion of the Polish ladies in Warsaw who wore mourning for their deceased relatives killed in the war, and then persecuted them again for habiting themselves in grey. Such are the mean acts of a brutal despotism. A very considerable amount of money which the Russian Government had collected in the shape of taxes from the Poles has been transferred, no one knows how, to the Polish Na- tional Government. Original instructions have been sentfrom the Czar to General Mouravxeff ( not, let us say, the Mouraviett' of Ears, who behaved like a gentleman) on his appointment to the chief command in Poland. We havo not space to produce these instructions in full. In substance they direct the exciting of the peasants against the gentry. The peasants are to be told ' • of the paternal intentions of the Czar towards them, and that the land- owners are their enemies and oppressors." The general is ordered to " proceed with the greatest rigour against the Catholic clergy, who are the actual instigators of the rebellion.'' He is to " cause the chiefs who may fall into his power to be immediately shot— to adopt measures against families who possess members in the ranks of the insurgents— to oppose certain manifestations of the women, and, for their hindrance, to adept severe measures against them." What Butler of his own coarse and brutal disposition did at New Orleans, is here formally and officially ordered by the Ozar; who, in diplomatic ( and therefore insincere) language is praised for his " gene- rosity" and " magnanimity." Brute as Butler was, he is the less brute e> f the two, for he was personally in the midst of the danger, while the Czar is in no manner of peril from it. In Warsaw the printers are ordered to make an exact re- turn of their type. They may be visited at any hour of the clay or night. If they have a greater weight of type than they have returned, they are to be punished, for then they must have been guilty of buying the excess; if they have less they are to be punished, for then they must have secretly parted with a quantity to some other person. In the treatment of the wounded the Rus- sian troops renew the barbarities which they practised in the Crimean war, when taught to believe that the English and French were devils, whom it was a pleasure to God that they should destroy, and, infuriated by drmk, they butchered the wounded on the field. Here, however, tiieir crueity is more systematic, and is directed against women and children, as well as fighting men. The other day this ferocity was exhibited towards two English servants of a Polish nobleman. A correspondent of the Levant Herald, writing , from Odessa on the 5th of this month, says:—" An outrage has just been committed on a couple of Englishmen in South Russia. The facts are shortly as follows. About ten days ago a party of Cossacks proceeded to the estate of Count Branitzski, of Biatocerkieff, to effect his arrest on a charge of insurrectionary complicity. Though the count quietly sub- mitted to be arrested, the party subjected him to brutal insult and violence, and half pillaged the mansion. Amongst the ser- vants were two English gardeners, named Douglas and Cunliffe. These the ruffians seized, stripped, and nearly flogged to death, and finally dragged oil' with them, with their arms tied behind their backs. The poor fellows have since been thrown into prison at Saratoff, where the count is also incarcerated. It is not pre- tended that the victims of this brutal outrage were in any way implicated in the alleged offence of their master; but they were unprotected Englishmen, and that was enough to entail upon tlieni the savage violence I have mentioned. A body of Poles attacked a detachment of Russians at Biala, and took the Russian G eneral Maninkin prisoner. He was immediately tried by court- maitial for ordering the massacre of the innocent inhabitants of the town of Siemiatcze, in Lithuania, and sentenced to be shot. The Poles, under Swientorzecki, have gained another victory in the neiglibourhoed of Minsk. RUSSIA- The Russian army in Poland is raised to 130,000 regular soldiers, and is daily augmented. The greatest activity prevails in the for- tresses, the arsenals, and the depots. All the Baltic forts are armed and placed in a state of defence. Cronstadt and all the naval dockyards present a very animated spectacle. The officers and soldiers on leave are rejoining their respective regiments. The city of St Petersburg is surrounded with a cordon miiitaire ; the examinations of the passports of the persons arriving is very scrupulous, and the luggage of persons leaving is subjected to a severe examination, as the export of lead, sulphur, and scythes is absolutely forbidden. The engineers had decided some time ago to raze the fortifications of Narwa, and the works had already commenced, but on the 8th the order arrived to stop the demoli- tion, and to rebuild what had been destroyed. GREECE The National Assembly has voted, by 130 against 52, the in demnity claimed by the French Minister, M Bourree, in favour of M Soulie, a Frenchman, who was ill- treated by some Greek soldiers. CORFU. The Lord High Commissioner, Sir Henry Storks, published a proclamation announcing the annexation of the Ionian Islands to Greece, as proposed by England; after which a Te Deuin was sung and general illuminations took place in the evening. AMERICA. Vicksburg still holds out, and General Johnstone is reported to be in the neighbourhood, with 18,000 men, but without artillery. In Indiana, tiie provost marshal and an assistant have been shot while endeavouring to carry out the enrolment preliminary to a conscription. Mr Vallandigbam has been fixed upon as the Democratic candidate for the Governorship of Ohio. The New York editors have protested against the suppression of newspapers by martial law. The Prize Court of New York has decided that ships bound for a neutral port, with an ultimate intention of sailing for a blockaded port, are liable to capture on their first voyage. General Pleasanton, ascertaining that the Confederates were receiving infantry reinforcements, reerossed the Rappahan- nock, bringing away his dead and wounded, and 200 prisoners. No definite estimate of the Federal loss has been received, but the fighting was severe and hand to hand. General Pernberton has reported he could hold Vicksburg, and that General J ohn- stone was to take his time to organise his forces. Northern ac- counts state that a severe fight occurred at Milliken's Bend, the Federal forces, consisting mostly of negro regiments, being driven to the banks of the river, under cover of the gunboats. Advices from New Orleans state that batteries were constructed along the entire Federal line at Port Hudson, and would open against the enemy. BRAZIL. The King has sent to the Ministers of England and Brazil his de- cision relative to the difficulty between the two countries, which was referred to His Majesty's arbitration. This decision is more favourable to Brazil than to England. MELANCHOLY- DEATH OE A YOUNG LADY- BY- DROWNING.— A melancholy occurrence took place at Falmouth on Wednesday, which resulted in the death of Miss Eilen Mitchell, of Falmouth. About eight o'clock in the morning Miss Mitchell left her house in company with her sister, a child of not more than twelve years of age, for the purpose of bathing at Gyllyngvase Beach. She un- fortunately drifted out of her depth, and appears to have lost all presence of mind and sunk below the surface. The screams of her sister attracted the notice of some men working in the localty, who rushed to the beach, swam out, and brought Miss Mitchell on shore, but she was quite dead. FATAL ACCIDENT AT CREMORNE.— An accident occurred on Thursday evening to the " Valeris Ascensionist," an Italian, whilst giving his usual performances in the Cremorne Gardens. He had advanced nearly to the point from which he usually re- turns backwards, when the rope suddenly gave way, ana he fell heavily to the ground. He was taken up insensible, and was im- mediately attended to by two gentlemen from 8t Thomas's Hos- pital, who were in the gardens, but died on the following day. It is believed that the lightning, playing upon the wire rope on Wednesday night, was the cause of the accident. THREE DEATHS FROM LIGHTNING.— On Wednesday, June 24, Mr Weller. a shopkeeper in Glynde, a small village in East Sussex, accompanied by his wife and another woman, went to Brighton, about 11 miles distant, in a light cart, to transact some business. On their return in the evening they were overtaken by a severe thunderstorm that prevailed for several hours, and it is' supposed that the cart was struck by the electric fluid, and the three in- mates almost instantaneously killed, as their lifeless bodies were discovered at an early hour on Thursday morning by a person who was returning from Glynde to Lewes. THE BABRAHAM SHORTHORNS.— The remainder of the short- horn herd of the late Mr Jonas Webb was disposed of on Wednes- day, June 24, by Mr Strafford and Mr J. Carter Jonas. The " crack'' lot of the day proved to be Lord Chancellor, a splendid red bull, calved May 8, 1861, For this there was an animated competition, and the biddings were run up to 400 guineas, Mr R. Sharp, from the neighbourhood of East Grinstead, Sussex, be- coming the purchaser at that heavy price. First Fruits, another celebrated bull, went for 170 guineas to Mr J. Odams. Mr Clarke Irving, from Australia, and Herr Fischer and Herr Gebliardt, from Germany, were also among the purchasers, the latter two principally taking cows and heifers. The cows and heifers offered made £ 2,2- 33, and the bulls £ 1,222, making a total of £ 3,455. Including the lots disposed of in April, the entire herd realised £ 8,027. The flock of Southdowns which conferred such deserved celebrity on Mr Webb realised £ 16,000, so that altogether about £ 24,000 has been derived from the dispersal of his choice animals MEXICO. The Mexicans who surrendered at Puebla numbered 12,000. Their surrender was necessitated through hunger. It was ru- moured that General Ortega and several officers had escaped while on the road to Vera Cruz. The officers refused to sign a pledge to remain neutral during the war. POLICE. At the Mansion House, on Thursday, John Langford, calling himself a commercial traveller, and residing in Southgate- place, Southgate- road, was placed at the bar before Alderman Sir Robert Carden, charged with obtaining a large quantity ot goods bj- false pretences, with intent to cheat and defraud. He was also accused of forgery.— On the prisoner being arrested, a betting- book was found upon him, containing proofs of his having been extensively engaged in horse- racing transactions.— Mr Frederick Home, a partner in the firm of Day and Horn, deposed that they had been in the habit of dealing with Messrs Higgins and Co, giving sometimes written orders for goods. He knew the pri- soner ' Langford, from his having been in their employment about twelve years ago. None of the goods which the prisoner had ob- tained in their names, nor of those which Wroods procured on the forged order, were delivered at their house. The prisoner had no authority to obtain goods in their names.— The explana- tion of the prisoner was, that he received the order, which had proved to be a forgery, from another man, who asked him to get the goods mentioned in it, but that instead of going himself he induced Wood to go. On being asked if that was true, to name the man from whom he received it, he said he could not, though he knew him well by sight, nor did he know where he lived.— Sir Robert Carden committed the prisoner to Newgate for trial, remarking as he did so that the betting- book found upon him went far to explain the position in which he was. SEIZURE OF THE ALEXANDRA.— This case, which has occupied several days in the Court of Exchequer, was brought to a close on Wednesday, the jury finding in favour of the defendants.— The Lord Chief Baron, in his summing up, said that he could see no difference between ships and other munitions of war, which neutrals were allowed to supply without any breach of interna- tional law. If the object, was to equip and arm the vessel in Liverpool it would be a different matter, but if the object really was to build a ship in obedience to an order in compliance with a contract, leaving those who bought it to make what use they thought fit of it, the Foreign Enlistment Act had not been broken.— The jury immediately returned a verdict for the de- fendants.— A bill of exceptions was tendered to the Lord Chief Baron's ruling. COCK- FIGHTING.— On Wednesday, June 24, before a bench of magistrates at Loughborough, the Marquis of Hastings was charged with causing a cock to be cruelly tortured, and Edward Platts, Joseph Farebrother, and James Dumelba, gamekeepers, with aiding and abetting in the offence. Mr Sleigh conducted the prosecution on behalf of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. The case was fully proved, and the magistrates ordered the inarquis to pay the full penalty, £ 5, and the game- keepers £ 2 each. Opera, race, and field glasses, in every variety of form and mounting, matchless for great magnifying power and sharpness of definition. Prices from 30s each, at Callaghan's, 23A, New Bond- street, W. ( corner of Conduit- street). N. B.— Sole agent for the celebrated race and field glasses made by Voigtlander, Vienna. Field glasses made expressly for India, warranted to withstand the greatest tropical heat. The new aluminium mounted glasses ( as made for H. R. H. the Prince of Wales), though of the largest size, weigh but a few ounces. FEDESTRIANXSM.

KENSINGTON SCHOOL ATHLETIC SPORTS. These sports teok place on Wednesday, June 17, and were at- tended by a very numerous and fashionable assemblage.

Haig Brown to the winner of the greatest number of races, was gained by R. Walker. The amusements of the day terminated at about half- past seven o'clock. Between 2,000 and 3,000 persons were present. SPORTS AT HACKNEY WICK. WRESTLING.— J.^ MENEAR OF CORNWALL AND J. BLADE OF DEVON.— It will be recollected these celebrated athletes met for the first time on Monday, June 8, to wrestle for £ 10 a side and the Champion's challenge cup, given for competition by Mr J. Baum, the proprietor, and which, according to conditions, has to be held against all who may think proper to enter the lists as competitors till next Easter. On the above occasion the struggle for supre- macy, the men having to wrestle the be3t two falls out of three, was not brought to any definite or satisfactory termination, for the champions, after remaining in the ring for just upon three hours, and neither during that time being able to obtain any ad- vantage, had to consent to an adjournment, as it was then too dark for them to continue the play. Pursuant to the arrange- ments made, the competitors met for the second time on the above ground to decide the match on Saturday, June 20, there being present a strong muster of the metropolitans who take an interest in this really manly pastime. In adjusting the preparatory matters Mr Lake was chosen umpire for Menear and Mr Morgan for Blade, while the veteran Griffiths discharged the duties of referee; being the same officials who at their former meeting acted in a similar capacity. The match had been fixed for four o'clock, and some few minutes after that time the men, accom- panied by the officials, entered the lists. Meriear looked from head to foot all that could be desired in condition, but Blade, although he appeared in tolerably good fettle, was, we were in- formed, far from the thing, as he had suffered from indisposition for some days past, and was at one time so completely '' off colour " that the Devonian was persuaded by some of his friends not to think of contesting the match. The men having got together, the play commenced with the utmost spirit, there being much skill and consummate ability displayed on the part of both. At length, however, after manoeuvring for something like forty minutes, Menear succeeded in " screwing" his man well in the " hold," and amidst the deafening cheers of his partisans sent him to grass in beautiful style with a fair back fail, so that he thus gained the first of the points. So confident were now the friends of the Cor- nish man that they'were eager to back him at odds, but there were no takers, the admirers of Slade not now showing the least disposition to speculate. After the men had taken a " breathing" in their corners, " Time" was called by the officials, when, in re- sponse to this mandate, the champions with alacrity once more advanced to the centre of the ring. The play was now resumed with the utmost animation, and from the really fine style in which the men foiled and eounterfoiled each other, they fully sus tained their reputation as two of the cleverest wrestlers and finest tacticians that ever entered the ring. Menear, when he threw his man as above stated, had given the Devonian a terrible system shaker, and now as the struggle progressed the effects of this fall began to be severely felt by Slade, and so incapable did he at last find himself of continuing the match with the least chance of success that he was compelled to resign, and Menear was hailed the winner, the match having, up to the moment Slade gave in, lasted nearly two hours. Blade, on leaving the ground, was found to be more seriously hurt than was at first supposed, and as it is to the effect of this mischance he attributes defeat, the Devonian has in- timated his intention of making a fresh match as soon as he is in a condition to do so. Menear now holds possession of the cup, which he must defend against all challengers. The winner can have the stakes at our office next Thursday at twelve o'clock. W. HATLEY'S BENEFIT.— On Monday, June 22, there was again a good attendance here, being for the benefit of this well- known pedestrian, whe for some time past has unfortunately been suffer- ing from severe indisposition. The sports commenced with a THREE MILES WALKING HANDICAP.— This wasfor a silver cup, and the competitors who had entered were drawn to contend in the undermentioned order :— Jacobs 3| min start, Berrill, Collins, Stammers, Sale 4min, Wren ( the Spotted Dog Pet) 4| min. The lead was maintained by Wren, and he went in a good winner, Jacobs second.— Second heat: Ackbourne, Phelan, Barnett, Love, Lane, Haverstock Novice, and Hurley Cult's Novice all at 3| min. This finished in the victory of Phelan.— Third heat: Myers and ' Thomas lmin, Allen ljmin, Benson, Davis, Jacko, Markham, Laurie, and Purvis 3| min. Won by Davis with much ease, Jacko and Laurie being disqualified by the referee during the match.— Fourth heat: Kempster and Ware 2min, Wild, Rogers, Clarke ( Shoreditch), Richardson, Clark ( Shoe- lane) 2| min, By- ford, Simmons, Ruggles, and Dunn 3min. Richardson and Simmons were the two first to pass the referee, but as both these pedestrians were properly disqualified by the referee ( W. Price) for breaking the rules of fair heel and toe, Dunn, who was next, was in consequence " shunted" into number one position.— Final heat: Wren 4| min, Phelan Sjmin, Davis 3|, Dunn3min. These pedestrians bad now to be brought together to contend for the prize, and after a well- contested match Wren went by the goal a fine winner, Davis second, Phelan third. The distance was covered by the winner, who is quite a lad, not more than 16, in 26 minutes. HALF- MILE HANDICAP.— This event was contested by the fol- lowing pedestrians, who were drawn to run thus :— First heat: Hall 90 yards start, Brown 100, Corkey 110, Duggan 130, Watkins 140, Vinegar 140. This resulted in the victory of Vinegar.— Se- cond heat: Young 100, Brown 100, Cooper 100, Clayton 100, Carr 106, Jones 110. Won by Jones ; Carr next.— Third heat: Rich- ards 40, Bruneil 60, Davis 80, Simpson 90, Bolton 100, Jonah 110, Thompson 120, Howes 130. This finished in Brunell going in an easy winner, none of the others going the distance.— Fourth heat: Crudgington 65, Batten 70, Perry 90, Smith 90, Wilkinson 90, Laurie 120. Crudgington passed the whole of his men, and went in an easy winner — Final heat: Vinegar 140, Jones 110, Brunell 60, Crudgington 65, being the four successful competitors in the preliminary heats, had now to contend for the prize ; and, after a well- contested race, Vinegar worked liis way to the front, and went in a fine winner, Jones second, Brunell third; and thus terminated a most excellent day's sport. Olympia, Bow, to contend for supremacy in a race of eight miles, for £ 50 a side. The competitors had to run twenty- six laps some odd yards to complete the distance, and J. Jacques was chosen re- feree. ^ ug odds were 6 to 4 on Ray, but there was not a great deal done ? n the shape ef speculation. Oil starting the pedestrians went rattling along at a good pace, the lead being taken by Dulieu, but so well did Ray run up that he did not allow his opponent to head him by more than two or three yards. The race on the part of both was well contested, the men at no period of the struggle being mora than a short span apart, and thus they continued to dash along until the} 7 had entered upon the last lap, where Ray, despite the efforts of his opponent, gradually as they drew on to the goal left him more and more in the rear, and went in a fine winner by some fifteen yards, the distance being run by Ray in 45min 33sec. HEATH AND GOLDER.— On Monday, June 22, there was a good attendance here to witness the mile spin, for £ 15 a side, between these pedestrians. The odds were 2 to 1 on Golder, and there was a good deal of money speculated, as this was imagined to be a " good thing,'' the partisans of the favourite making a certainty of winning. The referee having been appointed the pedestrians came to the mark, making the start under the superintendence of J. Pudney, of Mile End, theM. C. On getting off Golder for a moment just came to the front, but ere they had gone a dozen paces Heath had passed his man, and came well in advance, there being a rather formidable gap between them when they came by the referee for the completion of the first lap. Heath, from his running, manifested a fine turn of speed, and had so run his oppo- nent out that, while racing the third and last lap Golder pulled up, and Heath being now in undisputed possession of the lead, had only to run the remainder of the distance to win. SNIPE INN, AUDENSHAW. SATURDAY, JUNE 20.— Upwards of 200 persons visited these grounds this afternoon to witness a race of 440 yards, for £ 10 a side, between W. Ivlercerof Hyde and C.

THE HOP PLANTATIONS.— ROCHESTER, JUNE 16.— The lata genial rains have had a beneficial efl'ect on the hops. There are still complaints that the bine is attacked by vermin on a few grounds. Up till now there is every indication that the crop, if not a large, will be fully an average one, although much will depend oil the weather during the next few weeks, the hop, of all our vegetable productions, being most affected by atmo- spherical variations. About a month of warm, sunny weather, in which the hop delights, will undo much of the mischief caused at tlie commencement of the season by the cald winds. In many of the plantations the bine has already reached the top of the poles, and altogether the planters' expectations are exceedingly pro- mising. Consumption, and all nervous, liver, and stomach complaints in every stage, are only aggravated and accelerated by drugs of every description, but perfectly curable by Du Barry's health- restoring Revalenta Arabica Food, as proved by thou- sands of cases which had been considered hopeless. We quote a few:— Cure, No. 46,270. Mr James Roberts, of Frimley, Surrey, of thirty years' diseased lungs, spitting of blood, liver derange- ment, and partial deafness.— Cure, No. 47,121. Miss Elizabeth Jacobs, of extreme nervousness, indigestion, gatherings, low spirits, and nervous fancies.— Cure, No. 54,816. The Rev James T.

SPORTING CHRONICLE. [ LATEST EDITION.] THE TURF. BETTING AT TATTERSALL'S. MONDAY, JUNE 22.— Settling on the Hampshire events passed off smoothly, for the Danebury Nursery Stakes having been decided in favour of Aunt Judy, nothing was left by way of " dis- puted races" to stop the way. More anxiety, however, was manifested to learn the result of the " Tomato Case" than te resume betting on future events, and even after the " opinion" of the committee thereon ( referred to elsewhere) had been officially made known, speculation was not very- actively pursued. The St Leger, in fact, was not even " meddled with,'' and what wagering took place was chiefly confined to the Northumberland Plate, with the exception of a few investments on the Derby. For the first- named event 5 to 1 was offered on the field, and there was— for a time at least— little to choose between Polynesia, Caller Ou, and Brighton. Presently, however, the former settled down at 11 to 2, and Caller Ou at 6 to 1. An attempt was then made to drive Brighton back, but it was unsuccessful, and the last- named price was ultimately taken about him, although that was not forthcoming to any amount, and the commission to back him for some hundreds remained unexecuted. At a point more Car- bineer was firm. Doefoot was invested on at 100 to 7, and after The Monk had retired to offers of 2- 5 to 1, ten points less were taken about his stable companion, Stanton. As much as 20 to 1 was obtainable about Brilliant, and at 25 to 1 Adventurer made his exit. As already stated, a commission was out to back Brighton, who had been tried with Millionaire. The trial, however, was not deemed good enough to justify his owner accepting a short price, and he therefore intimated to his commissioner that unless he could get on at not less than 6 to 1 he should scratch the horse. The Commissioner, it would appear, could not get on at the required price, and the horse was scratched to Messrs Weatherby shortly before six o'clock. The fact, however, was not generally known for some time afterwards, hence the " demonstration'' at Chelms- ford on the following day. THURSDAY, JUNE 25.— No attendance. NORTHUMBERLAND PLATE. MONDAY.

In accordance with the notice issued last week at Tattersall's, the members of the committee met on Monday afternoon, at four o'clock, to take into consideration the following petition, signed by upwards of seventy members of the Subscription Rooms:— " To the Honourable the Members of the Committee of Tattersall's Subscription Rooms: " We, whose names are hereunder written, beg respectfully to address you upon the subject of the decision given on Monday last in reference to ' The Tomato Case,' arising out of the race for the Fernhill Stakes at Ascot; and whereby it was decided that all bets on the race were void, though Tomato had, by the decision of the Stewards, been declared entitled to the stakes. " Remembering the rule of betting which declares that ' the in- terests of the bets are inseparable with the interests of the stakes, except when the running horse is disqualified owing to a default in making stakes,' it does appear to us that this decision is so manifestly erroneous that it cannot be upheld; and we, therefore, ask that the case may be re- heard before a competent number of your honourable committee. In aid of this view, we may men- tion the fact that the Hon Admiral Rous was the only member of your committee who joined in hearing the case, and that he dis- sented from the decision given. Upon the ground of manifest error, therefore, we respectfully appeal against the decision given, and ask that the case may be re- heard by such members of your honourable committee whom you may please t ® nominate, and whose decision shall be final. " Dated June 15,1863.'' Subscribers generally awaited the result of the meeting with much anxiety, and the following notice was eventually posted:— " Tattersall's, June 22, 1863. " We are of opinion that the Tribunal was incompetent to hear and decide the Tomato case. ( Signed) " H. J. Rous. " C. G- RE VILLE. " H. LOWTHEB." " The Tribunal" that decided all bets were void on the Fernhill Stakes having been thus declared " incompetent"— two of the gentlemen who adjudicated upon the case not having been mem- bers of the committee— the matter now stands just as it did at Ascot after the Stewards had awarded the stakes to Tomato, and the committee will meet again next Monday to hear any demands or claims that may be brought before them relative to bets made on the race, and the decision or decisions then given will, of course, be final.

Having no occasion here to make mention of the past week's meetings, we purpose analysing the Goodwood Stakes, which the public generally appear to recognise as a genuine affair. The re- sult of the Newcastle race has not affected it in any degree, and there being but little chance of the Liverpool Cup influencing it either, it may remain an open race up to the eventful day. Bet- ting has not yet extended over many in, and a couple of three year olds are all the rage at present, in the face of facts that argue strongly against the juveniles, who have only eleven times been successful in the Goodwood S. akes during thirty- eight years, while they have not won one great handicap this year. They, seem, however, determined to cut in for this prize, seven- ; een of the thirty- thiee left in being three year olds; and as the highest weighted of them, Port Royal, 6st 12lb, is receiving two stone for the year from the top weight, Hartington, and he gives from 41b to 151b to the remaining sixteen, they cannot be called badly in. Considering there is no added money, the ac- ceptance is a good one, for there are twenty- seven stables repre- sented, the following being a list of the different lots:— Trainer. age st lb Harlock ..{^.^ u l A.

Flirtation, 5 yrs, is advertised to be sold by Messrs Tattersall to- morrow ( Monday). Chesterfield Races will take place on Wednesday and Thursday, Sept 30 and Oct 1. Mr J. Ward disposed of Rapture this week to Mr Mellon, for 75gs. Captain M. Alleyne, well known in Turf circles, died on Monday last. Several of Lord Stamford's horses have returned from Ilsley to Newmarket. The colt by Voltigeur out of Rosaline, by Orlando, purchased at the sale of Her Majesty's yearlings, is named Richmond. Totnes and Bridgetown Races are fixed for Thursday and Friday, Sept 3 and 4. Mr J. Gilby has sold Donnybrook and Daniel O'Connell, both three year olds, to Mr G. Crook. Lord W. Powlett has purchased J. Rogers's bay yearling colt by Trumpeter out of Miss Bowser. SKEGNESS RACES.— This little meeting has been arranged for Friday, July 17. It will be seen on reference to our advertising columns that The Baxon, 4 yrs ( own brother to King of Kent and Hengist), is to be sold by private contract, for 50gs. Lord Strathmore has engaged James Tiplady, for many years head lad to Mr T. Dawson, Middleham, as his lordship's private trainer. M. Dawson's black filly by Russborough out of Sneeze, 2 yrs, got loose at exercise on Monday morning last, ran against a wall, and killed herself on the spot. Sir R Bulkeley's brood mare Styria, by Stockwell out of Tas- mania's dam, with a filly foal by Trumpeter, has been sold to Mr J, La Mert. Ratcatcher, we hear, is progressing more favourably than ex- pected, considering the nature of the accident he met with at Newton, but is still unfit to be removed to his training quarters. GREAT YARMOUTH RACES.— After passing through a rather lengthened period of doubt and trial, this meeting has been at last arranged for Tuesday and Wednesday, Sept 22 and 23. Lapidist, Queen Elizabeth, Dunkeld, Nebula, Rizzio, Oneida, Colleen Rhue, and Blight will be sold by Messrs Tattersall on the Thursday of the July Meeting. There will be a Spring Meeting next year at Chelmsford, ex- tending over two days, the first day being devoted to flat racing, and the second to steeple chasing. Johnny Daley was to have ridden Doefoot for the Northum- berland " Plate, but his late mishap compelled him to forego the mount. Caller Ou, after winning the Northumberland Plate on Wednes- day, was struck out of the Queen's Guineas at seven minutes past five o'clock, and on Thursday was scratched for the Gold Cup Stakes and the Corporation Plate at 2: 30 p. m. Lyndhurst Races, which were postponed in consequence of the lamented decease of the Lady Henrietta Morant, are now fixed for Tuesday, August 16. A programme will appear in our columns shortly. CABLISLE RACES.— Latest advices report the course to be in beautiful order, and prospects generally augur an unusually good meeting, the principal races on the second day being so arranged that all bound for Worcester may get away without hurry or in- convenience. READING RACES.— We are requested to call the attention of owners and trainers of horses to the time of closing for the Berk- shire 8takes and the Whitley Handicap 6takes, one mile, which is on Tuesday next, June 30. The remainder of the stakes will be duly announced. MAZE RACES.— The following handicaps close on Wednesday, July 1, with the registrar, Rosevale House, Lisburn:— The Stand House Plate of 50 sovs, the Corporation Plate of 50 sovs, the Ulster Railway Plate of 50 sovs. The Union Hunt Plate and the Garrison Plate close on Monday, July 20, between two and four, at Stand House, Maze. ABINGDON RACES.— By an advertisement in our front page it will he seen that two additional stakes have been added to the first day's programme, making in toto eight races for that day. These stakes close on Tuesday next. The course is now in excellent order, and as the stakes which have already filled have secured good entries, no doubt can be entertained of the success of the meeting, if favoured with fine weather. Hungerford Races, which take place on the two days following Abingdon, also look well " on paper" from the number of acceptances and entries, and the Berkshire people may therefore look forward to an excellent week's sport. The Stockbridge Cup, won by King of Diamonds, is a tall, elegantly- fornied vase- shape cup, elaborately embossed in the Italian style, surmounted by a group of hunters. The entire groundwork is picked out in gold, forming a chaste relief to the delicate tracery of the ornament. It is mounted upon an ebony base and beaded work, which adds great effect to the whole. This handsome cup, which was manufactured by Mr Whistler, of the Strand, was selected by the Stewards, the Earls of Uxbridge and Annesley, and we cannot but say that if racing cups generally were chosen with such good taste as this, it would be no small ad- vantage to the racing world.

Chaff's good form we have not yet observed, and Treen's followers will be fortunate if they can bring off'a coup at Goodwood. The best performance of the filly by Young Melbourne out of Maid of Masham was that she displayed in the Park Hill Stakes, last September, when head and head with Imperatrice and Hurricane ; and unless Imperatrice can win the forthcoming Liverpool Cup very easily, it cannot be on the cards for Lord Glasgow's filly to prove the best of the heavy weights. Bellman might do them good service, as we hear that he has recovered from the accident that prevented his running at Ascot, and his form in Ireland was at times good last year, although we do not take much notice of his beating Caller Ou on one occasion, for she took her revenge of him very easily on the next day. He exhibited a great falling off'towards the close of the season, and was sold to Lord St Vincent soon afterwards, which circumstances are ominous enough when put together; still the horse is said to be a great favourite at home, and no liberties should be taken with him. Loiterer has improved with age more than a great many horses, but is badly in on his performances with Captain Crow, at Lincoln, last autumn, for the latter ran him to a neck on one occasion, when there was only 81b between them for two years, and on another beat him four lengths for second place, at fair racing weights. This is not encouraging, as the Captain would have had an equal chance with him were he in at 7st 111b, which his owner would not accept with after his Ascot de- feat. Evenhand is pretty certain to carry themoney of the American division, and should he have been kept in clover for a handicap, a la Starke, and Prioress, lie will find no difficulty in winning, having many times shown a great turn of speed, and no one dare say he cannot stay, for he has never essayed to go beyond a mile but once, and that was at Harpenden last month, when his stable won with Amy. Overton stayed forthe principal event there, but only in bad company, and we have no idea of his being so good at a dis- tance as Knutsford, who looked over done at Northammpton, and was riot backed when he ran for the Ascot Stakes. Consequently, he may yet come to last year's form again; and those who saw how he beat Loiterer at Plymouth, and Millionaire at Wolver- hampton, giving them both weight, cannot doubt that lie is really the " best in" of the whole lot in the race. Grimston and Blondin have both been backed, and Mr Parr's stable will be for- midable as ever over this course with one of the pair, the young one being the better horse, in our opinion, when he comes to his proper form. Balham's Stockbridge triumph was not much to boast of, as he was on his own ground, over which rogues always run best; and The Pilot must improve very suddenly to have even a better chance than the moderate Cock Robin, for he cut upbadlyintheNorthumberlandPlatelast Wednesday. William Day has taught the public a lesson about getting on early more than once this season, Catch ' em Alive and Canzonette having both cost them some money; but whether they are really good horses time has yet to prove, and we can only remark that there should be something in the tkree year old, seeing how anxious some people were to be on her at Northampton. Magnum Bonum is too uncertain for us to recommend, even at his light weight; and Bandage's Ascot Stakes performance gives us no encouragement to stand on him; neither did Barbadoes ever show form that would recommend him in the face of such horses as Knutsford, Bellman, Evenhand, and Grimston. This quartette should form the pick of the old horses, and we must lean towards Knutsford and Evenhand. It will not do to judge of the three year olds by their perform- ances ; and, as in the cases of Canzonette and Blondin, we take more notice of what they have promised, when standing upon Brian Boru, Anfield, Zapatedo, and the Wasp gelding, with the two just named, as the most troublesome opponents of the old horses. Anfield is admitted by all who have seen him to be a magnifi- cent colt, and he threatens to become a warm favourite, as will also Canzonette and Blondin if their parties are in earnest. In fact, Evenhand, Knutsford, Anfield, Bellman, Canzonette, and Blondin are entitled to hosts of friends in ouropinion, and should they all reach the post it maybe bard to choose between them, even at the finish. The Carlisle and Worcester meetings are the only fixtures for the forthcoming week, and they occupy two days each, com- mencing on Tuesday, there being nothing, consequently, to mar the prospect of either. Carlisle, however, has but a sorry programme out, although the acceptance for the Cumberland Plate is a better one than usual, eighteen having expressed themselves satisfied with the weights. Of these, Caller Ou is penalised 91b, in addition to her 8st 121b, and thus Joey Jones ( 5 yrs, 8st 51b), Judex ( 3 yrs, 6st 41b), and Captain Crow ( 4 yrs, 7st 51b) are the best- looking over the two miles and a quarter, in the order named, Joey having shown in his very best form at Newcastle. The Grand Stand and Lottery Handicaps comprise the only remaining events we have seen completed, and these are not worth discussing here. At Worcester there are fifteen races proposed, and ten are already before us; still, eight of these are handicaps, and a two year old race each day will supply the only variety worth men' tioning. The Trial Handicap is reduced to a match between Colonel Crockett ( 5 yrs, 7st 61b) and Herdsman ( 3 yrs, 6st 71b), now that Twilight has paid forfeit, and we give the preference to the old horse. The Croome Handicap is a three quarters of a mile spin, wherein Wadlow's stable ia strongly represented by Spicebox, Flexmore, and Miss Livingstone, and the best of such a trio must be formidable ; nevertheless, Almack ( 3 yrs, 6st 41b) meets the lot with the best of the weights, and he performed sufficiently well at Newmarket in the spring, over a short course, to have our good opinion for a race like this; Airedale ( 3yrs, 6st 121b) being another that must not be despised. The Worcestershire Handicap is over a distance General Hess ( 6 yrs, 8st 101b) and Warminster ( 4 yrs, 7st lllb) can just about accomplish, and neither has cause to complain of the imposts. But we notice Turn of Luck ( 4 yrs, 7st 41b) and Fluke ( 3 yrs, 6st 21b) that are even more leniently treated, and the pair should supply the winner. The Two Year Old Sweepstakes will be rather too much for Prince Arthur to attempt, with his 101b penalty, for he cannot give the weight to Leicester, and the latter has only to fear Ely making a debut, a probability somewhat remote, seeing what rich prizes Mr Cartwright's colt has missed already this season. The Coventry Stakes will form the two year old race of thesecond day, and being well worth picking up, we shall probably see The Doctor out again, as his party cannot feel satisfied with his Stock- bridge exhibition. He is, however, too uncertain for us to trust, in the face of a pair like Vacuna and Alpheus, the latter of whom was unfortunate enough to be placed fifth in a race at Ascot, which robs him of a 31b allowance. The Flying Handicap, on the straight half mile, T. Y. C., is patronised by several of the speediest animals in training, and Wadlow's stable contains several of them in Miss Julia, Spicebox, Flexmore, Miss Livingstone, Gipsy Girl, and Coimbra ; still, we do not know whether there will not be something better in the field in Little Lady, Walloon, and Biondella or Fravola, and in leaving the issue to the trio, we must admit to a preference for Mr Naylor's colours. The Worcester Cup and Bentinck Benevolent Fund Stakes cannot be safely dealt with pending the first day's proceedings, and no other events have closed as yet. TO THE EDITOR OF BELL'S LIFE IN LONDON. 13, Berkeley- square, June 26, 1863. SIB : I beg to address myself to the Racing community through your columns, to explain every incident connected with the Umpire and Tomato decisions. It must be clearly understood that the Jockey Club take no cognizance of any disputes or claims with respect to bets, their duties are to check the evil doers as far as it lies in their power, and to decide all racing disputes. For the Queen's Stand Plate, at Ascot, Knowsley inadvertently carried four pounds under his proper weight, for which he was disqualified, and the plate given to Umpire. An objection to the award has been made that Knowsley was a maiden, because he had received forfeits from herses disqualified by age from starting. Answer— Rule 7: " When a stake is deposited by the owners of horses which is to go to the winner, such race is a sweepstakes'" three subscribers make a sweepstakes," & c, & c. Rule 4.— A maiden horse is one that has never won a plate or sweepstakes. Another statement has been made that the objection to Knowsley ought to have been made within a quarter of an hour of the race. Now there are three distinct grounds of complaint which must be brought to notice within three prescribed periods. 1. All complaints of foul riding, or of horses not running the propei\ course, or any other irregularties occurring in a race, mus ® be made within a quarter of an hour ; and for the best of reasons. If a jockey be accused of going on the wrong side of the post he may be. tracked instanter; witnesses to foul riding are on the spot. 2. Objections to the pedigree or to the qualification of the horse, or to the owner being a defaulter, must be made before the meet- ing terminates. 3. Where charges are made of fraudulent entry, or of running horses under a false description, such as a winner in a maiden plate, or a horse erroneously carrying a maiden allowance, the complaint may be investigated at any period within one year. The Knowsley case was settled at once by Lord Glasgow, who, the moment he discovered the error, gave up the plate, as any right- minded honourable man would have done. Umpire, therefore, being registered as the winner, was, by Rule 2, entitled to the bets. Neither the printed cards nor the numbers on the telegraph, affect the validity of a race. The official Racing Calendar and the colour of the winning jockey, proclaimed by the judge, are the authorities by which the stewards decide all disputes. When Sir J. Hawley's Ban won the Metropolitan his name was not on the card, but no objection was made to his winning. Any person may, according to the present state of the law, evade the rule, and not put up his horse's number, by ordering his jockey not to go to the scales before the race, and the utmost penalty he is liable to is a fine of £ 25, and no steward can dis- qualify a horse from winning on this score. There is no law to justify the verdict. This is a weak point with regard to betting and racing which ought to be guarded against by a severe penalty. Baron Rothschild's trainer was fined £ 25, in compliance with Rule 36. The Aaron's friends and commissioner backed Tomato openly; she was coloured on the card as the bay filly. On the top of the Jockey Club Stand we all knew the bay Tomato frem the chesnut Hippolyta; but few persons honoured her with their confidence, as she had been beaten on the Tuesday and at Epsom by Midnight Mass, who again met her on the same terms. If Tomato had not won, everything would have gone off' as mild as the evening sun ; but she won, and the backers of Lady Abbess, Vivid, Flying Fish, and Midnight Mass lost their bets. The four stewards decided that Tomato won the stakes, and, according to Betting Rule 2, there was nothing to be done but pay up on Monday. I was asked my opinion on the race course, but by the 10th Rule Jockey Club, as a steward, I declined to interfere. On Monday, the 8th, although ih; re had been strong arguments for repudiation and great excitement to avoid paying the bets, the committee was not convened, and nothing was done until late in the afternoon when, after Lord Chesterfield and Mr Lowther, who had no bets, had left the rooms, I was asked to act, which for four years I had declined to do as a steward of the Jockey Club- Lord Exmouth said, " Here is Onslow, who has no bets." I had great difficulty in procuring a third person, but Mr Sturt con- sented to act. At that time I was under the impression that there would be disputes to settle between persons who had backed Hippolyta, or Rothschild, or Tomato. I was not aware of the controversy, or nothing should have induced me to act. There are no two gentlemen I have a greater respect and regard for than Mr Sturt and Mr Onslow; but on retiring to consult there was no case before us— no plaintiffs, no defendants, no witnesses. A de- sultory conversation took place; I protested against their assum- ing the power to declare bets off, in utter violation of the existing laws of betting. They considered they were invested with that power. Mr Onslow delivered a judgment that all bets were off. I at the same time protested against the illegality of the measure. The committee on Monday last justified my protest.— Yours, & c, H. J. Rous. [ We have received a mass of correspondence from backers of both Umpire and Knowsley relative to the Queen's Stand Plate at Ascot, and further communications regarding the Tomato case. As the latter will, however, be finally decided on Monday by the committee of Tattersall's, and as Admiral Rous has above given his decision on the former, we have not deemed the insertion of the letters in question at all necessary ]. TO THE EDITOB OF BELL'S LIFE IN LONDON. SIB : As the Tomato case has now to come before the committee of Tattersall's Rooms, it is to be hoped that the rule will be made sufficiently explicit to meet all such cases as the Newcastle one at York in 1859, such as the Danebury Nursery might have been had it proved correct that Aunt Judy did not accept in time, or if a horse of the proper age, improperly described by one sire instead of two, the dam correct, being allowed to start without objection in post betting races.— Yours, & c, A SUBSCBIBER.

P. for the Queen's County. We regret to, have to record the death of Richard Fitzgerald, Esq, the well- known gentleman jockey, who died last week in Limerick, after a lingering illness. He was one of the best of the old school, and as a judge of pace in a four mile race was second to none, and his famous victories on Monarch, Conrad, and Clinker are still fresh in the recollection of many. The Duke de Morny, who is about increasing his racing esta- blishment, purposes having t portion of his stud trained in England, under his present trainer , W, Smith. The horses en- gaged in France will continue to be trained at Chantilly, under H. Jennings and Smith's son George. DANEBUBY NUBSEBY STAKES.— We stated last week in our " Latest Edition'' that Aunt Judy had accepted in due time to Mr John Day, the Clerk of the Course, although the acceptance not having been forwarded to Burlington- street was not included in the Calendar. The following notice was posted at Tattersall's on Monday:—" Tattersall's, June 22,1863.— The Earl of Annesley and Admiral Rous, acting for Lord Uxbridge, have decided that Aunt Judy is the winner of the Danebury Nursery Stakes.'' Boulogne Races and Steeple Chases will take place on Wednes- day and Thursday, July 15 and 16. The entries for the Emperor's Prize and the two Classes Prizes will take place the evening before the races, at six p. m., by sealed letters, deposited at the Mairie of Boulogne. The entries for the Grand Steeple Chase will be re- ceived up to four o'clock on the afternoon of the lst July, as above, by Mr Grandhomme, the secretary of the Jockey Club, Paris; or by Messrs Weatherby. lessness, tries his luck and his stomach in speculating on heads or tails with his only penny to increase his exchequer or his chance of a bellyful or none. There is also the over speculative " lame duck'' on Change as well as the too sanguine investor in the Ring ; the levanting merchant on the one hand and the bilking Welsher on the other ; the speculative mamma who enters her daughters for the hymeneal handicaps and accepts or not as cunningly as any knowing trainer who similarly works the oracle with his horses, with his " mind's eye" lovingly fixed on some tempting stake in futurity; and while it is acknowledged that trade has its merchant princes the Ring prides itself on the high honour of its millionaires, the " wielders of the metallics ;" arid so might instances be multiplied and impressively illustrated without discredit to racing; there is more honour in the Ring than out of it in proportion to the numbers engaged. We have daily evidence of this fact from the readiness which such speculators part with their thousands with only pencil memoranda and honourable principles for their bond. For instance, if one of these noisy representatives of the Ring offers to lay 6 to 4 on Dr Candlish's colt Sectarianism, by False Idea out of Apocrypha, against Leading Article, by Ru3selloutof Scotsman's dam, you, of course, win your money, because the former with his impetuous strides and frantic excitability makes so much running that he is soon " pumped out,'' when the Russell colt collars him, makes one of his tre- mendous rushes, and wins the event easily. Well, although the stentorian- lunged pencillor has not the melodious voice of a Sims Reeves, or the mellifluous accent of a finished elocutionist, yet he has a fine mode of delivery in replying to your request to settle, for whether your winnings be in thousands, " monkeys,'' " ponies," " tenners," " fivers," or " quids," it is handed to you without a wry face, a hitch, or a higgle, and with more nonchalance than an Edinburgh cabby pay- ing for a " gill of the national,'' over the counter at the Bay Horse, who gives evidence of his characteristic origin by in- sinuatingly begging Mrs " Mac" to give him " a wee pickle Preston Pans just to wash it doun ye ken," But if betting is the " pitch" that deflleth, Scotchmen of all others, with their pro- verbial caution, are the most unlikely to be contaminated with any portion of its supposed adhesive nastiness, and therefore fit subjects to patronise racing in all its integrity and usefulness, for experience proves that moderation in speculating on such matters is one of their pleasing attributes; besides, it is not a necessity to speculate on attending a race meeting. There are thousands of the habitues of the Turf who patronise it for the pleasures, & c, it brings them, and who never bet a sixpence. The support of the Scotch is simply required on the grounds of equity, common sense, the beneficial monetary influences, and the enjoyment of those social and pleasureable amenities of life which it so widely involves, and by so doing they will aid in giving stability and position to an " institution" worthy of the country. Let those of noble birth and intellectual culture, distinguished for their appreciation of equestrian enjoy- ments, and elevated above those who hold such false views of secular pleasures, uphold the noble pastime in all its greatness and integrity; let the " blue blood" of the country and the lead- ing men of the Lothians give it their support, and " blood will tell;" let us have Buccleuch, Binning, Glasgow, Roxburghe, Strathmore, Eglinton, Buchan, Ailsa, Moreton, Hopetoun, San- dilands, Ramsay, Baird, Merry, Maxwell, and other representa- tives of time- honoured names to head the van and aid the cause, by spiritedly putting their shoulders, influence, and fortunes to the wheel, and make the courses of Scotland something more than a rendezvous for leather- flapping nonentities! Want of time com- pels the premature close of this article, but the statistics of Scot- tish racing shall be given in a future number. Horses marked * are in the Derby, t in the Oaks, J in the Leger. It is somewhat remarkable, but nevertheless a fact, that, gene- rally speaking, racing in Scotland has attained little more than " plating'' respectability; therefore it behoves all who care for Scotland's position, or are interested in the improvement of that noble animal the horse, to inquire the why and the wherefore of, what is now customarily termed, the painful shortsightedness of a deep- thinking people. Although " there is nothing in the nature of Scotchmen which unfits them for the enjoyment of rational recreation ( vide Mr Gregory's speech, House of Com- mons),'' it will require the lapse of many, many years before racing with them assumes the garb of position and colossal growth it has acquired in England ; yet, although it cannot be considered universally popular with the Scotch, it is gradually and in- sinuatingly entwining itself round the affections of the " right sort," the creme de la creme of society, to insure it that future patronage of which its prominent usefulness and pleasures render it worthy. It is a customary remark that the Scotch are de- liberately cautious in all they undertake, and if they at first step a little short, like a navicular diseased screw, or snort- ingly give a dainty boggling falter, or fail to move with the freedom of a " high stepping goer," rest assured there is still soundness at the core; they are only coquettishly shying against some supposed " innovation," which simply requires the encouraging " pat'' and manipulation from master hands to pull ' em nicely but firmly together, and ride them past the supposed objects of danger to the goal of legitimate results. There is, however, a semi- religious section, repre- senting an immense portion of the Scottish public, who make religion a fashion, and flout the idea of patronising racing— England's national pastime— because, as they assert, it is a low, iniquitous, vulgar, brutal sport, with gambling influences as its attendant satellite, unfit for any one of refined tastes, feelings, cul- tivation, morality, and position, andtherefore, with lofty hauteur, they strenuously discountenance it as one of the upas trees whose branches disseminate immoral poisons. Of course such violent ideas are diametrically opposed to facts, and the English, who have latterly been dealing immense blows with the literary sledge hammer against Scottish peculiarities, do not hesitate to affirm, in plain prose, that such notions solely belong to the narrow minded, bigoted view of the Puritan or the illiterate notions of ignorants. The world must judge which are right. It is, however, a fact that, in the land of Knox, such ideas have hitherto gained so much favour that many who have a desire to witness the Isthmian games which royalty and the aristocracy of England patronise and cherish, weakly suc- cumb under ascetical pressure, and shrink from appearing on a race course in Scotland, under the idea that they lose " cast " in business character and social status by so doing. It appears almost as hopeless to controvert their peculiar notions as it would be foolish to expect the Moderator of the General Assembly to indulge a speculative fancy in backing The Ranger with a spare fiver for the Leger, or that versatile genius Dr Guthrie to enter his promis- ing colt by Ragged Boy out of Charity, dam by Theology, for the Lothians'Handicap. It is a great pity, and " pity ' tis ' tis true," that the " pious Scotch" have such a predilection for the outer semblances of religion and church ritualisms, that all secular pleasures are with pharasaical spirit condemned as unsavoury dishes which do not bear the sanctimonious flavour of the cassock and the pulpit, and, as was recently stated, do the race course the favour of considering it " an alfresco gambling hell for the un- godly." Now, it is not requisite to make this a continual question betwixt the Church and the course; silk in the pulpit and silk in the saddle have each their separate missions, and as the two make running so wide from each other in their own happy, ad- mirable manner, let them flourishingly rejoice in the knowledge of their individual merits, for it is impossible to put them to- gether and handicap them equitably. Let the Church and its people nobly uphold its high cause and just principles, and the sporting press, while dealing unflinching anathemas against racing delinquents, will trot out its own game little hobby to the course of integrity and usefulness, and give pater, mater, and the rising generation a pleasant airingunder the genial atmosphere of Turf pleasures. There is, however, so much blatant outcry against the sin of racing, & c, that it is better each should run in their true colours, in order that the Scottish public may be made aware of the " hobby horse" they ride and " run straight" for the future. It may be foolish to imagine that racing is worthy of kindlier feel- ings, support, and influence; but when it is taken into consideration that it has the pleasing basis of giving employment to thousands, assistingGovernment coffers with arevenuesolely derivable thereby, increasing the wealth and statusof the country, as well as the especial improvement of that noble representative of the animal creation, which we all profess to have a proclivity for, it must be admitted that it is scarcely justice to give it the Satanic names it receives. Such, in short, are a few of the principles and utility of the Turf, without entering into other collateral advantages. Ah, but the attendant evil, the betting! " there's the rub." Well, as to betting, it may be assumed that betting and speculation are synonymous terms, and the British are a speculative people, and, it is hoped, will continue to be so long as the " nation of shopkeepers" hold together, for every trader is a speculator more or less. There is nothing positively bad in the principles of betting or speculating; it is simply the abuse of its legitimate uses that gives birth to the dangers that occasionally ensue. Speculation is one of the national characteristics of the age, and although there is occasionally too much of it done in a spirit of recklessness to make it universally popular, it is no reason why racing should be " snuffed out" because of the occasional existence of a minor evil. Racing, like other things, is just as bad or as good as the strength of its votaries, its enemies, or the viciously- inclined choose to make it. There is a positive and a negative in everything, and excess is the parasitical negative which leaps o'er legitimate boundaries and fastens its insidious fangs on every trace, profes- sion, or grade of society, from the fast flashy peer who plays " ducks and drakes" with his income and acres, down to the lowest rag of hungry humanity, who, with pitch- ar. d- tossv reck- NEWCASTLE- UPON- TYNE RACES. Stewards: Lord Hastings and Sir Hedworth Williamson, Bart. Judge: Mr R. Johnson. Starter: Mr Thompson. Clerk of the Course: Mr J. Gray. If it be true, as local history tells us, that racing claimed but little attention in the early celebrations of the great Northum- brian carnival, it is equally certain that since the establishment of the Plate in 1833 scarcely anything else has been thought of. No Leland to come need therefore trouble about " ye dy versions" on Town Moor, inasmuch as the recording task or trade, for such it has become, has passed into different hands. Electricity does its bidding on the spot, and what once took years to collate now finds publicity in steam- printed journals on the morrow's, breakfast table. Such, so far, being the state of affairs at Newcastle, people naturally wonder that the same " go- ahead" principle remains unapplied in other matters pertaining to the meeting; and this is a neighbourhood abounding in wealth, continually adding to its magnificent public buildings, and rejoicing as steadfastly as ever in general progression! Let the authorities then by all means strengthen the programme ; so that, as at all first- class places, the national and yearly increasing interest attaching ta the chief event may extend in a measure to other items- also. This effected there would be an end to cavilling at home and abroad, seeing that the management and their estimable clerk have other- wise worked well, in the right direction. Since the turn of winter the running ground has been under constant supervision, the faulty and uneven portions set straight, and a nice covering of grass preserved, while rain coming just in the nick of time, con- duced to freshness and unexceptionable order. On the course, too, the shifting backwards of a row of stages, which formerly impeded seeing from the Ring platform and lower part of the Stand, afforded much satisfaction; so that, what with a large acceptance and prospect of a good field for the Plate, coupled with indications of delightful weather, the gathering on the whole, perhaps, never looked half so promising, though we regret to add that certain movements subsequently excited feelings of disgust with more disparagement to racing. Most of the horses intended arrived on Monday, but in the absence of bookmakers, speculation, save a few bets of 7 to 1 taken in blissful ignorance about Brighton, was unim- portant among the native division. All, consequently, remained " serene'' up to Tuesday morning, when the subjoined notifica- tion, displayed in front of the Turf Hotel as soon as received by post from the Messrs Wetlierby, met the view of those early astir :—" Newcastle, 23d June, 1863. Brighton was struck out of the Northumberland Plate at 5: 56 p. m. on Monday, the 2_; d* inst. — JOHN GBAY." The blank visages and uneasy gestures produced by this unfriendly bulletin during the twenty minutes we loitered on the spot may be better imagined than described, as must be also the by no means elegant comments evoked as party after party " gazed his fill" and passed on. " No expla- nation !" growled one. " Why, the horse is here 1" ea- gerly exclaimed another. " So much the worse," re- joined a third ; and so on until, with the rapidity all bad news is supposed to travel, it was in everybody's mouth—" Brighton is scratched 1" Bookmakers from Manchester and elsewhere knew nothing of the fact till reaching Newcastle in the course of the forenoon, which was more devoted to an exa- mination of what had been done overnight anent the " gone" animal, than entering new transactions. The sports commenced as usual with the Trial Stakes, which terminated in the defeat of the selected Deerfoot by Betsy Copeland, who snatched the race, as it were, through the rider of the other failing to make the most of a lead, which, by a timely cut or two of the wtiip, he doubtless would never have lost. The Members' Plate, like the opening event, having originally failed in obtaining the required number of subscribers, was reopened with much better suc- cess, and brought to the post the best field of the day, though some difficulty prevailed in " spotting" a favourite— affections first settling on Cellarius, then on Trump Quean, but eventually the right nail was hit with Erin go Bragh, to whom Lady Louisa stopped at the finish, and the horse beat her a neck. The Tyro Stakes, for which Windham was backed at evens, was carried off by Lady of Coverham, a clean, well made filly by Mountain Deer from the Ashgill stable. Lord Exeter's Acceptance next pulled off'a Selling Stakes, and changing hands at the ham- mer for 39 guineas, went into Hall's, but has since left for R. Sly's stables. Much interest attached to the North Derby in the anticipated meeting of Donnybrook and Giles the First, the lists having been pretty well skinned for days previous in favour of the former. No little amazement was therefore manifested when the telegraph board went up minus his number, a proceeding so un- looked for by Donnybrook's trainer, who, it seems, was only apprised at the last of the animal being a non- starter, through his recent sale with Daniel O'Connell to Mr Crook of Leeds, that he immediately threw up the further training of Mr Gilby's horses. In absence of the " crack" the race was booked a certainty for Giles, upon whom Aldcroft came with one of his famous rushes at the Stand, but coming just too late, never quite reached Manfred, the winner; so fine, indeed, that the positions were reversed the instant they had cleared the chair. This concluded some excellent racing, wherein heads and necks were the order of the afternoon. With re- spect to the Northumberland Plate, we should have men- tioned that upon reaching the course it soon became evident which was Mr Saxon's representative by the general enquiry after Stanton, who rose rapidly to 7 to 1 ( taken freely). Polynesia, however, remained firm at 4 to 1 ( offered), and 6 to 1 was taken about Caller Ou, as was 10 to 1 freely about Doefoot, the only out- sider nibbled at being King Charming. In the evening, at the Victoria Club, where a strong muster of influential attended, Stanton was again in demand, and supported at as low as 5 to 1, till offers against him became few and far between; 9 to 2 was laid several times agst Polynesia : Caller Ou was firm at 6 to 1, Doefoot would have been supported at 10 to 1, while King Charming, having a coming appearance, was backed at the rate of 100 to 6. The Leger and Derby were introduced, but without a bet being laid on either. Offers, however, were made to take 100 to 10 about Anfield for the Goodwood Stakes. Allured, no doubt, by one of the most brilliant midsummer days that ever graced the Calendar, some twenty thousand people journeyed north and south to witness] the all- important event on Wednesday, and being reinforced by the home population, the attendance altoge- ther on the Moor must have more than trebled the first- named computation. Business was resumed with the Licensed Victual- lers' Plate, the distance for which being considered more suited than yesterday to Lady Louisa, she was supported freely at 5 to 2, but never showed in the race, a fine one at the finish between Entremet and Mountain Buck, the winner. Erin go Bragh hav- ing landed the odds of 5 to 4 betted on him for the Grand Stand Stakes, the Northumberland Plate, sustaining from the moment the weights appeared an unparalleled amount of interest, came next for decision. As a betting race it must be pro- nouneed the best ever known for the Plate, if not the very best of the present season, the finale being that a large field of fifteen sported silk, with a successful issue for the world- renowned Caller Ou. During the morning the prices under- went no change from those quoted last evening, but on the course at the commencement, Oldminster was in general force at 100 to 8, though he again receded towards the close. Polynesia, undoubt- edly, was backed for most money, and, at the finish in the Ring, had just the call of Stanton. The mare, who looked " big," and lathered much before starting, did not get well off, but, in the opinion of good judges, she would not have won had the reverse even been the case. Stanton appeared lighter than at Ascot, and went short in his canter. Carbineer exhibited a vast improve- ment upon his form at York in the spring, and was ' perhaps now the most admired. Caller Ou went well, but seemed a little lighter than when she stripped for the Chester Cup. Mr I'Anson, however, affirmed that the mare was fit and well, and if beaten, he could make no excuse for her. Lothians' King looked remarkably well, the Scotch air having evidently agreed with him since he left Newmarket in November last. Oldminster was much fitter than at Northampton, and many fancied that he had returned to his old form again. Doefoot was lighter than at Manchester, and King Charming, who went rather short in his canter, will be heard of to advantage some future day. Weatherwise went as well as any- thing in the race, and had it not been for a " slip" would, no doubt, have finished pretty forward. Passing over Prairie Flower, Brilliant ( who broke down), Trust, Alice, and Pilot, we come to Prologue, who ran well for about a mile and a quarter, and then died away. The race being fully described in the usual place, we may add here that it was closely contested by the first three, Lo- thians' King at the finish, like Rapparee last year, catching the leaders at every stride, not a few contending that if the course had been fifty yards further he could not have lost. Many partiescontend that Caller Ou won easily, because Challoner never moved on her, but in this opinion we do not concur, for some of our readers must remember the race for the Tradesmen's Cup at Manchester, where it looked any odds on her half- way in the distance, but im- mediately Aldcroft took up his whip she stopped instantly, as doubtless if so treated she would have done to- day. Challoner rode with great judgment, and though rousing her close at home, never let go her head, he having also steered Zeta, the Plate win- ner in 1856. The tremendous shouting when the lucky number went up pretty clearly indicated that the Northumbrians had won their money, and taken for all in all a greater Plate day, unattended by serious accident, was not before on record, wound up aa it was by the triumph of the Newcastle horse, Joey Jones, in the Queen's Guineas. At the Room at night 1,000 to 200 was taken about Buckstone for the Goodwood' Cup, while offers of 5 to 1 in hundreds on the field for the Leger met with no re- sponse. On Thursday the company was unusually large for a " last day,'' and the sport a vast improvement upon many former years, but furnished little calling for introductory comment. Rubini won the Tyne Handicap, to which succeeded the Gold Cup, in which it will be seen that Unfashionable Beauty fell, through striking into the heels of Dictator, neither the latter nor Doefoot being able to stay the course with the Calot gelding and Comet, between whom a severe struggle terminated in a dead heat, the former afterwards walking over, Mr Saxon taking the stakes, amounting to 165 sovs, and Mr Osborne the hundred added. The Northumberland Hunt Plate, with a dozen runners, was reckoned a good thing for Wagid Ali Shah, the winner last year, but who now took MO prominent part in the contest, which resulted in favour of a sun of Barbarian, called Vandal, who won all the way. Although 97 horses were handicapped for the Corporation Plate, only half- a- dozen faced the starter, the fact being the course, once round, is too far by half for a race of this description. As it was, therefore, Lothians' King, with odds on him, made a wretched example of the lot, and confirmed the notion entertained of him by his performance on the previous day.

The favourite showed in advance directly the flag fell, waited on by the Game Pullet colt to the straight, where they were joined next the rails by Betsy Cope- land, who deprived Deerfoot of the lead near the distance, and appeared to be winning easily, but the young one coming again half way up, a good race ensued, the mare just holding her own to the end and securing the fiat by a head ; three lengths separating the second and third ; Harvest Mell a bad fourth.

They left the post in rather straggling order at the second attempt, the two in front being Cellarius and Lachesis, who ran abreast for a quarter of a mile, after which the running v* as taken up by Lady Louisa, with Un- fashionable Beauty at her side, succeeded by Erin go Bragh at the head of the ruck, Annabella, last off, occupying the far rear. These positions were maintained to below the distance, where " The Beauty " was beaten, leaving the favourite in pursuit of the now clearly leading Louisa, whom he overhauled two or three strides from the chair, and defeated by a neck. Three lengths divided second and third, and about " the same the third and fourth, Lachesis was fifth, Trump Queen sixth, Calabria seventh, and Fairy Queen next.

The Lady, first off, was soon passed by the favourite, who carried on the running, with C lax ton in attendance, to the straight, where the latter died away to nothing. Thence Windham held a clear lead to about the distance, when Whiteley again brought up Lady Coverham on the inside, and taking the command, in a few strides, she won by an easy length; the third beaten thrice as far, and the others tailed off.

The latter and Duchess ran in front to the turn, when Acceptance, last from the post, joined in front and got her head in advance at the straight by coming round her horses, who ran almost in a line to within the distance, whence Lady Braybrook and the Hospitality filly were left to fight it out with Acceptance, neither of whom, however, quite got up, Lord Exeter's filly winning by a neck, and the third finishing a head fro . n the second, Benevolence an indifferent fourth. The winner was sold to Mr Knight of Leeds for 39gs. The NOBTH DERBY of 5 sovs each, with 100 added, for three yea olds; colts Sst 101b, fillies 8st 71b ; winners extra, with certain allowances; the second received 25 sovs out of the stakes ; once round ; 20 subs.

Snowden 3 Betting : Even on Giles the First, 7 to 4 agst Manfred, and 3 to 1 ag t Alice, who made slow running in company with Manfred, the favourite lying off. Thus they proceeded for a quarter of a mile when the pace mended and Manfred took a slight lead of the mare, who dropped back beaten at the distance, leaving Man- fred in clear possession of the command to about half way up, when Aldcroft made his rush, but just failed to get up, and was defeated by a head ; Alice finishing three lengths from the pair.

The lead was taken by Recluse, with Fairy Queen at her quarters, followed in a body by Entremet, Rosebud, the favourite, and Mountain Buck. In this order thejT ran to the straight, where the leaders were in difficulties, and Rosebud took up the running, closely attended by Mr Jacques's filly and Mountain Buck to the distance, whence, on the retirement of Rosebud, a fine race home with the other two resulted in favour of Mountain Buck by a head, the third finishing three lengths from the second ; Deerfoot a middling fourth. The GBAND STAND STAKES of 5 sovs each, with 50 added; two year olds 6st 121b, three 8st 121b ; fillies and geldings allowed 31b; winners extra; the second saved his stake; T. Y. C.; 16 subs. } Mr W.

The Game Pullet colt and Eola ran together in front to the turn, but soon after resigned to the favourite and Lady of Coverham, the former winning easily by a length, with a similar interval dividing se- cond and third; nothing else near. The NOBTHUMBEBLAND PLATE of 200 sovs, added to a Handicap of 15 sovs each, 10 ft, and 5 if declared; the second re- ceived 50 sovs out of the stakes, and the third saved his stake ; winners of 200 sovs or upwards 61b, of two of that value 91b extra; two miles; 52 subs, 15 of whom declared, and 3 did not name.

The canters were taken nearly a quarter of an hour prior to 4: 15, the time fixed, when the starter made his appearance, but owing to four failures did not give the signal till just thirteen minutes after, when Carbineer, next the rails, the ground he maintained through- out, was first to show in advance. In a few strides, however, the running was taken up by Prologue, closely laid up with whom on passing the Stand were Pilot, King Charming, the top weight, and Weatherwise, succeeded by Lothians'King and Brilliant, conspicuous in whose wake were Prairie Flower, Oldminstt- r. and Stanton, whipped in two or three lengths away by Caller Ou and Polynesia, side by side, the latter soon occupying the extreme rear. In this way they breasted the hill for the cutting beyond, there being no change until at the road crossing for the far side Brilliant stopped as if shot, and having broken down badly in the near fore leg went no further. Prologue, thence with a clear lead, was followed by Pilot, also about a length in front of Carbineer, King Charming, and Weatherwise at the head of the ruck, to the Newcastle turn, in rounding which the latter slipped up, and the two leaders giving way about the same mo- ment, [ the command was taken by Lord Zetland's horse, waited on by King Charming and Stanton, who had gra- dually crept up, the next pair being Doefoot and Lothians' King. At the half mile post Caller Ou began to im- prove her position, and coming through her horses took her place at the side of Lothians' King, in whose company she travelled to midway round the bend, where Mr Saxon's horse beat a retreat simultaneously with Doefoot. The next holding out signals of distress was King Charming, so that when fairly in the straight Caller Ou alone remained to try conclusions with Carbineer, whom the mare collared and headed at the Stand, and retaining her advantage to the end, won a most exciting race by a head, Lothians' King, who came with a rush at the finish, only missing second money by the same. At an interval of half a dozen lengths Doefoot was fourth, Polynesia, who passed several of the stopping ones half way up, finishing a neck from her ; Stanton being sixth, and King Charming next, succeeded in the order named by Oldminster, Trust, Alice, Weatherwise, Pilot, and Prologue. Prairie Flower, a long way last of everything after the first three quarters of a mile, walked in last, Brilliant having returned to the paddock, led in by his rider.

Annabella cut out the work to the distance, when the others closed up, and ran level with her to the Stand, where Patrick obtained a shade the best of it, and won a slashing affair by a head, half a length dividing second and third. The winner was sold to Mr Gill for 46gs. HEB MAJESTY'S PLATE of lOOgs ; three year olds 7st lllb, four 9st 71b, five lOstllb, six and aged lOst 31b ; three miles.

Hugill weighed for Mr Irving's mare, without name on the card, and pedigree unknown, but being a long way from the post when the flag fell she returned to the paddock. THURSDAY.— The TYNE HANDICAP of 5 sovs each, 3 ft, with 25 added, for all ages; thesecond saved his stake; three quarters of a mile ; 9 subs. Mr Beadman's b c Rubini, by Ruby, 3 yrs, 7st 101b..

Wallachia made play, followed by Calabria and Betsy Copeland, the favourite in the rear, in which order they pro- ceeded to the straight, when Wallachia fell back, and Calabria took the command. Within the distance she was joined by Ru- bini, and the pair coming away together, the latter won cleverly by half a length ; bad third.

The start, delayed by two or three failures, was further protracted hy Sauterelle breaking away and running more than a mile, after which Comet jumped oft with the lead, but soon resigned it to Unfashionable Beauty, succeeded by Dictator, Doefoot, Comet, and the Calot gelding, nearly side by side, Rosebud and Sauterelle being several lengths from them, both having got badly off. These positions were unchanged until at the turn Unfashionable Beauty dropped behind, and striking into the heels of Dictator, in advance, she fell and rolled over. Upon the retirement of Dictator and the favourite at the distance, Mr Saxon's gelding and Comet came out, and running home locked together, the judge, unable to separate them, awarded a dead heat. Doefoot, finishing three lengths from the pair, beat Sauterelle by a neck, the others not near, and the riderless Unfashionable Beauty bringing up the rear. Subsequently it was agreed to divide, and the Calot gelding walked over, Mr Saxon receiving the stakes, and Mr Osborne the added money. The NOBTHUMBEBLAND HUNT PLATE of - 50 sovs for half breds; 12st each ; winners extra; gentlemen riders; Northumberland Plate Course; two miles. Mr J.

A clear lead wastaken by Yellow Jack, succeeded to the bottom of the hill on the right by the Elcot filly and the favourite, after which Vandal went to the fore, but being pulled back in the ensuing quarter of a mile, Craggsman next took up the running. This he carried on to the straight, where he was rejoined and headed by Vandal, who quitted him at the distance, and won in a canter by two lengths, Wajid Ali Shah " on sufferance" finishing a very bad third. The last three tailed from the ruck were White Socks, Yellow Jack, and The Rover, while May Day, in the rear throughout, can- tered in fifty yards behind the lot. The SPECULATION PLALE of 25 sovs, added to a Selling Stakes of 3 sovs each, for two year (.- Ids and upwards; the second saved his stake; nearly one mile; 6 subs.

CHELMSFORD RACES Stewards: The Hon Admiral Rous, Sir J. T. Tyrell, Bart; the Right Hon W. Beresford, M. P. ; T. W. Bramston, Esq, M. P.; C. Du Cane, Esq, M. P.; T. S. Western, Esq, M. P.; Major Skinner ( R. A.), Major Bringhurst; C. Alexander, R. W. Baker, J. J. Tufnell, jun, W. M. Tufnell, J. O. Parker, J. A. Houblon, E. Disney, and D. R. Scratton, Esqs. Judge: Mr J. F. Clark. Starter: Mr T. Marshall. Clerk of the Course: Mr J. Burton. Secretary: Mr W. D. Burrell. Few meetings have experienced so many " ups and downs'' as Chelmsford, and— to speak paradoxically— the downs have been most decidedly in the ascendant, for so unpromising has been the aspect of affairs at times, that the fixture appeared likely to be expunged from the list of " races to come" altogether. The Com- mittee, however, actuated by the sentiment which pervades the popular ballad, " Sunny days will come again," still held on, and through good report and bad report looked forward to the " good time coming," distant though that time might be. One of the drawbacks of the meeting for years past has been the old Stand, a building as utterly unsuited for the purpose for which it was originally erected as it is possible to conceive, being so ill placed that to the majority of the would- be spectators it commanded " an extensive view of nothing." Year after year the " New Stand" has been promised ; in fact the " New Stand" has been almost as long before the racing public as the Reform Bill was before the House of Commons, until the chance of its becoming a reality was aboutas vague as the ultimate repeal of the income- tax. The New Stand, however, is no longer a myth— it is no longer an air- built edifice, existing only in the imagination of Mr Clark, or a mere paper " elevation'' lying by the side of his racing book in his private office, for it now stands out in bold outline an excellent specimen of racing archi- tecture, presenting a wondrous contrast to the old barn- like build- ing that was formerly dignified with the name of Grand Stand. The New Stand reflects not only credit on Mr Clark, the well- known race judge and architect, and Mi; Moss, the con- tractor, but also on Mr Burton, the Clerk of the Course, Mr Burrell, the Secretary, and the committee generally, for their zealous perseverance in carrying out this long- needed im- provement. The old Stand, it will be remembered, occupied the eastern side of the course; while by the present arrangement it is now reversed. The New Stand occupies an area of 73 feet by 40 feet — about four times as spacious as the old building. The western facade is broken by the projection of a handsome porch with rus- ticated pilasters and moulded cappings, from which springs a semicircular rusticated arch with key stone, with the date of the present year engraved upon it. Similar arches spring from arches on either side. Above the porch is the ladies' retiring room. This part of the building is finished with a bold cornice and parapet at the sides, and a semicircular tympanum in the front, crowned with a continuance of the cornice alluded to. The hall is entered from the porch, from which a staircase gives access to the gallery and inner standings. The refreshment- room, 29 feet by 20 feet, has an entrance from the hall. The lawn is also reached through its folding doors, opposite to the entrance of the porch. The lawn is of a spacious character, containing not less than 13,000 square feet, Adjoining the lawn, on the north, and separated by a continuance of the iron fence, which sweeps round to the iron hand- railing of the stone standings, is the jockeys' yard. This yard is further enclosed by brick walls. Within this inclosure there is a communication with that portion of the Stand which is set apart for the use of the committee, reporters, weigh- ing and dressing room for the jockeys, & c. At the entrance to this yard from the corner is placed, within an inclosure, the judge's chair. The stone standings are of the most substantial character, being composed of turned work, or arches of brick, upon which the standings are stepped up in solid brickwork, and covered with York stone landings 2 feet 9 inches in width, thus allowing two persons to stand in depth. There are eight of these steps or standings, which are calculated to accommodate comfortably about six hundred persons. In addition to this, beyond the line of demarcation formed by the graceful columns which support the roof and the ornamental railing between them, rise in regular gradation other standings of similar dimensions, but of wood, constructed upon trussed principals of a most substantial cha- racter. They are four in number, besides the terminal or plat- form, ten fee't in width, and the entire length of the building. In this, the covered portion of the Stand, sitting and standing room is provided for other six hundred persons, intended for the elite portion of the company; and this part of the building is mainly approached by the spacious staircase from the hall or vestibule. It is perhaps superfluous to state that from this alti- tude an almost uninterrupted view of the course is obtained; in- deed this remark may with much truth be applied to the whole series of standings. Upon the solid stone standings are a series of hand railings, four in number, painted blue; the artistic columns of the roof, with the elegant railing at their lower por- tion, painted white and blue; the aerial roof and the peridental fafia in parti- colours, red, white, and blue. There is a flag staff upon each hip of roof. The nice proportions of the whole, the relative bearings of one portion with the other, altogether present a very pretty effect, and a tout ensemble is presented which is rarely witnessed. The entire area of Stand, lawn, and other inclosures is equal to 190 feet by 110, or upwards of 20,000 square feet. The cost of the buildings, alteration of course, and contingent expenses exceeds £ 2,000. The old Stand was, so to speak, stuck in the middle of the course, so that the horses ran round it; by the new arrangement, the Stand being not only reversed, but " set back,'' the running round is ob- viated. Further improvements are in contemplation, which will render the entire arrangements as near perfection as pos- sible, and so encouraging are the prospects of the new Stand proving a good paying affair, that the remaining shares were at once taken up on Tuesday. The " finish" is still very severe, although, after a very steep climb of some forty feet, the half dis- tance is more on " the flat." Glorious summer weather conduced to a large attendance, and, considering the hardness of the ground, the sport brought to issue was of a very fair description, and productive of some close contests during the two days The pro- ceedings on Tuesday commenced with the Mark Hall Stake", for which Woodcraft, who ran second to Black Friar for the Cl£, S- mont, at Hampton, was esteemed good enough to lay 7 > o 4 on, while 20 to 1 was proffered agst Wee Aggie. The resu t; proved the correctness of the estimate, for Mr Bryan's filly iv^:? easily, and was bought in for 230 guineas, a tolerable " throw irl"~ - for the fund to begin with. Zora was installed first favourite for the Scurry Stakes, but, carrying 12st, she finished in the inverse position obtained by her stable companion in the first spin, and " Mr Cherry" pulled himself and his followers through on Disap pointment. The Chelmsford Handicap brought out four of the half dozen " acceptances," Mountain Maid filly being most " fancied," but after a severe race Flirtation— conceding Flash in the Pan 171b— managed to beat him by a short head. Seven youngsters went to the post for the Great Baddow Stakes, Mr Hodgman's recent purchase, Confederate, being made the favourite, but he proved less successful than his namesakes have on several occasions of late, and the winner turned up in Mr Alexander's slashing, good- looking Teddington filly, who won all the way, and but for the accident she met with at Harpenden— where she fell on her head— would doubtless have there scored her first win. The Galley wood Stakes was reduced to a match between Sacrilege and the filly by Loyola out of Jemima, and the latter upset the odds of 7 to 4 betted on the two year old, and benefitted the fund a " tenner" by her transfer to Mr B. Land. Some speculation took place between the races on the Northumberland Plate, 5 to 1 being taken and offered about Polynesia, a point more aboutCaller Ou, while Stanton became as good a favourite as Carbineer at 7 to 1. The " feature" of the wagering, however, was that about Brighton, it not being generally known whether the horse was scratched or not, although the general impression was that he had in reality joined the struck out lot. Offers were still made at intervals to take 8 to 1 about him, and subsequently several investments were made at 100 to 3 " all in." Later in the day it became an established fact that Brighton had been struck out the previous evening a few minutes before six o'clock, in consequence of his owner being unable to get his commission exe- cuted at Tattersall's. This, as a matter of course, led to a loud outcry on the part of those who had got on at a price several points over that his owner felt justified in taking after the not over- satisfactory trial with Millionaire. The sport on Wednesday was in some respects an improvement on that of the previous day, the list being made up of seven items. 6 BELL'S LIFE IN LONDON, JUNE 21, 1863. Backers landed their fancy for the County Members' Handicap, for Lady Fanny beat Measure for Measure,— who was let in at Est 7ib,— right easily. After making this handicap and the Scurry — in both of which " Measure for Measure was putin at 5st Tib- Admiral Rous expressed a regret that he had let this filly in so • well. That the Admiral, however, in making these impromptu handicaps, had taken at first sight a correct measure of Measure for Measure was made apparent by the result of the Scurry Han- dicap, for ske ran a dead heat with Disappointment and Confede- rate, the deciding heat with the trio being in favour of Disap- pointment, who, the previous day, evinced some ability in climb- ing the hill. Summerside, we should add, who was " selected ' by the talent in the first " heat," was beaten a head only from the trio, while Vigil, the second favourite, finished a neck only from the favourite. A rare specimen this of offhand handicapping The Essex Stakes, with its added 200— instead of 100, as last year — brought out nine of the fifteen entered for it, and although lucretia opened first favourite, she was eventually passed in the betting by Nebula, who landed Mr W. Robertson's colours right easily by a couple of lengths. Wee Aggie being made the favourite ior the Maiden Two Year Old Plate, won easily, and benefitted the fund some sixty guineas, as the previous sale of Cadiz after the Maldon Stakes had previously credited the account for a " century." Favouritism was about equally divided between Bally Edmond and Paste for Her Majesty's Plate, Mil- lionaire being the next best favourite, and in the order named they passed the chair, " Bally" winning by a clever length. The victory of Consternation— the " worst favourite" of the four invested on for the Town Plate Handicap— wound up a very successful meeting. The extra betting that took place during th \ fternoon was almost entirely confined to the Northumberland which exhibited little variation from that of the previous c ja^ nd backers and layers were relieved of their anxiety just at tSo'close of the proceedings by the announcement of the victory of Caller Ou. The prospects for next year are most encourag- ing, for nearly forty subscribers have already been obtained for the Chelmsford Handicap, which next year will be run over a mile and a half instead of two miles, and considering the very severe nature of the finish, the change must be set down as a most ju- dicious one. It is also in contemplation to hold a two days' meet- ing here in the spring. TUESDAY, JUNE 23.— The MARKS' HALL STAKES of 5 sovs each, with 25 added by Mrs F. E. Honywood, for two year olds; colts 8st 71b, fillies 8st 31b ; the winner to be sold for 50 sovs; straight half mile; 4 subs.

The latter made play, with Remunerator, Consternation, and the favourite lying well up, while Disappoint- ment, who got badly off, brought up the rear. In the order named they ran to within a quarter of a mile of home, when Re- munerator went up to Hilly Grove, who still maintained a slight lead, and Zora being in trouble retired to the rear. Half way up the distance, Disappointment, who had passed his opponents gradually, obtained the lead, and ran in an easy winner by a length ; bad third. The others were pulled up some distance in the rear. The CHELMSFORD HANDICAP of 15 sovs each, 10 ft, with 100 added; winners extra; the second saved his stake ; two miles; 11 subs, 5 of whom declared.

The latter took up the run- ning immediately the flag fell, the Mountain Maid filly keep- ing him close company, Maria Day next, and Flash in the Pan, under waiting orders, lying off. Thus they ran to the distance, where the favourite headed Flirtation, but only maintained the advantage for two or three strides, when Flirtation again fot his head in front. Half way up Flash in the Pan made is effort and reached Flirtation's neck, but failing to overhaul him, the latter won after a sharp struggle by a head ; a neck be- tween tlie second and third; very bad fourth.

Tomfoolery was the first to show in advance as the flag fell, the next in attendance being the Teddington filly, Vandervelde, Bold Houghton, and the favourite, all in close company, in the order named. At the dis- tance the Teddington filly, who had been pulling double all the way, was half a length in advance, and at the Stand enclosure she came away and won very easily by three lengths; a length between the second and third; Tomfoolery was fourth, close up to the latter, and Bold Houghton a very bad fifth. The GALLEYWOOD ( Selling) STAKES of 3 sovs each, with 30added; with selling weights, allowances, and penalties; straight half mile; 5 subs.

The latter made play for about a hundred yards, when Lady Fanny took up the running, with Measure for Measure in close attendance, and Mrs Somerville next. Just below the distance the favourite had all her opponents in trouble, and coming on with a clear lead, she won easily by a length; three lengths between the second and third, Santhal a bad fourth ; Fairy beaten a long way. The MALDON SELLING STAKES of 5 sovs each, with 30 added; with penalties and allowances, & c ; the winner to be sold by auction; half a mile; 4 subs.

Parsons 0 Mr Fleming's Melissa, 2 y rs, 6st 71b Hunter 0 Betting: 6 to 4 on Bummerside, 5 to 1 agst Vigil, and 10 to I each agst Lapidist and Disappointment. After two or three failures an excellent start was effected. Confederate made the running at a strong pace, his next attendants being Disappoint- ment, Measure for Measure, and Summerside. The four ran in « jlose company throughout, and at the distance were as nearly as possible abreast, and running home locked together, the result was a dead heat with Measure for Measure, Disappointment, and Confederate, while tne favourite was only beaten ahead from the three; Vigil finished a neck from Summerside; Melissa was sixth. DECIDING HEAT.— Betting: 6 to 4 agst Disappointment, 5 to 2 agst Confederate, and 7 to 2 agst Measure for Measure.

The favou- rite made the running, followed by Necklace, Invasion, Drummer Boy, and Certificate. Nebula, however, was never headed, and won easily by two lengths; four lengths separated the second and third ; same distance between the third and fourth. Drummer Boy was fifth, Summerside sixth, Lucretia seventh, Certificate eighth; Rapture walked in last. The MAIDEN Two YEAE OLD PLATE of 50 sovs ; colts 8st 101b, fillies 8st 51b; the winner to be sold for 50 sovs; half a mile, f Mr Rayner's Wee Aggie, by The Cure, Sst 51b .. H.

Demon made the running to the Stand, where the favourite, who had been pulling double, was sent out and won in a canter by three- quarters of a length ; a head between the second and third ; half a leng'h between the third and fourth. Norman weighed for Fairy, but the filly having - thrown a plate, could not run. The winner was bought in for HOgs. The QUEEN'S PLATE of lOOgs; three year olds7st 101b, four 9st 71b, five lOst, six and aged lOst 21b; two miles and a half. Mr S. Thellusson's Bally Edmond, by Bantam, 5 vrs, lOst G. Fordham 1 Lord W. Powlett's Paste, 5 yrs, lOst S. Rogers 2 Mr Bryan's Millionaire, 6 yrs, 10st21b J. Goater 3 Mr Goddard's Petersham, 3 yrs, 7st 101b J.

Dunkeld made the run- ninfi^ about five hundred yards, when Bally Edmond took it up, flowed by Petersham, Paste, and Millionaire. In this order they 2m the first mile and a quarter, when Paste rushed to the fro' Ccund maintained the lead to the distance, where Bally Ed- mor"-. deprived the former of the lead, and won easily by a length; three lengths between the second and third; same distance between the third and fourth. The TOWN PLATE ( Handicap) of 50 sovs, for three year olds and upwards; about seven furlongs, straight. Mr H. Marsh's Consternation, by Alarm, 4 yrs, 7st 91b H. Grimshaw 1 Mr Payne's Trap, 3 yrs, 6st 101b A. Woodhouse 2 X Mr Dalev's b g San thai. 3 yrs, 7st 21b Sadgrove 3 Lord XJxbridge's Kean, 4 yrs, 7st 101b French 4 Mr G. Brvan's Waterwitch, 5 yrs, 8st71b Crouch 5 Mr Fleming's Lady Derby, 5 yrs, Sst Norman 6 Betting: Even on Trap, 4 to 1 agst Waterwitch, 5 to 1 agst Kean, and 6 to 1 agst Consternation. The favourite, Lady Derby, Kean, and Waterwitch laid in front to the distance, where Con- sternation, who had been lying off, rushed passed her opponents, and won easily by two lengths ; three lengths between the second and third ; Kean was a bad fourth ; Waterwitch, who was beaten half way up the distance, was fifth, and Lady Derby last. and Lady Derby ran a dead heat. The race was, however, awarded by the Stewards to the latter, through, as it was said, foul riding, although the decision did not give general satis- faction. The Welter Cup was a poor affair, only two horses, East Sheen and Corroborator, running for it. The former was the favor- ite, but the latter, a cast- off from Lord Portsmouth's stables, won easily. The Chantry Stakes the Teddington filly won easily, which was fully expected, for she certainly is a clipper, and Cot- ton, her trainer, has got her into blooming condition. Her Ma- jesty's Plate was really a splendid race, and Wells's fine display of horsemanship on Oberon was a treat for the spectators, and it took Fordham " all his time'' and generalship to land Bally Ed- mond the winner by a short head. The 8hrubland Park Stakes, for gentlemen riders, terminated the amusements, which Charyb- dis won in a canter, but of course there was an objection to the winner, on the plea of not having been hunted, and the second horse was also objected to for being thorough bred. The stewards ultimately declared Charybdis to be the winner. On Friday the sport commenced with a match between Charybdis and Little Tom, " gentlemen up," Long odds were laid upon the former, and she won, but we think the latter ought to have passed the judge first. The Great Suffolk Handicap was a com- plete failure, for only three horses put in appearance, and Oberon, who carried top weight, was made a great favourite through his excellent performance in the Queen's Plate the previous day with Bally Edmond, and he fully justified the support he received by winning rather easily at the finish. The Nursery Stakes only produced a small field, and Lifebuoy was a lucky winner, for had not Mr Fleming's Marpesia filly run out, she would have come in first to a certainty. Folly won the Town Stakes, and landed her party a good stake, for she was backed far heaps of money. Lord Rendlesham's Grisette upset a great pot on Zara. The Playford Stakes was won by Belle of Yorkshire, which wound up the sports of this improving meeting, which, by the able assistance of Mr J. Manning, who acted both as judge, clerk of the scales, & c, was carried out satisfactorily. THURSDAY, JUNE 25.— The RACING STAKES of 5 sovs each, with 25 added ; with selling weight allowances and penalties; the winner to be sold by auction; about half a mile; 6 subs.

Woodhouse 0 Betting : 7 to 4 agst Olive Branch, 5 to 2 agst Fitz Ruyter, and 4 to 1 agst Sanita. The Vindex gelding made play for a hundred yards, when Sanita obtained the lead, maintained it the remaining distance, and won easily ty two lengths, the same separating the second and third; Olive Branch was fourth, and Sacrilege next. There was no advance upon the winner's selling price. The BOROUGH MEMBERS' PLATE, of 50 sovs; two year olds 6st 7lb, three 8st 31b, four and upwards 9st 31b ; with penalties and allowances ; the winner to be sold for 500 sovs; three quarters of a mile.

Grimshaw dis Betting: 5 to 2 agst Lapidist, 3 to 1 agst Deerfoot, and 5 to 1 each agst Santhal and Lady Derby. Lapidist, Lady Derby, Santhal, and Deerfoot showed in front immediately the flag fell, but after running nearly a quarter of a mile abreast, Deerfoot obtained the lead and carried it on to just below the distance, when Lady Derby again joined Deerfoot, and the two ran a most exciting race home, which terminated in a dead heat. Lapidist was beaten four lengths for third place; Santhal fourth, Belle of Yorkshire fifth, Land of the West sixth. E. Sharp weighed for The Prophet, and he was backed at 3 to 1, but having cast a plate, he could not run, and through not having reached the starting post all bets upon him were off'. The rider of Lady Derby objected to Deerfoot, upon the ground of a cross, which being confirmed by other jockeys, the stewards awarded the race to Lady Derby. Vates went to the starting post, but little Bradford, his rider, having been kicked on the foot by Belle of Yorkshire, the horse did not start. The WELTER CUP ( Handicap) of 15 sovs each, 10 ft; gentlemen riders; professionals 61b extra ; one mile ; 6 subs, 4 of whom pay 5 sovs each. 1 Lord Rendlesham's Corroborator, by Vindex, 3 yr3, 9st Sib MrS.

French 0 Betting : 2 to 1 on the Birthday filly, and 5 to 2 agst Brother to Canace. The favourite rushed to the front immediately the signal was given, her next attendants being White Bait and Brother to Canace. The race was never in doubt from the start to the finish, for the favourite made all the running, and won by five lengths ; a head between the second and third ; Mountain Maid colt was a very bad fourth, and Wheldrake fifth, about half a length from the latter. HER MAJESTY'S PLATE of lOOgs; three year olds 8st, four 9st 7ib. five 9st 131b, six and aged lOst; two miles. Mr Thellusson's b h Bally Edmond, bv Bantam, 5 yrs, 9s 1131b G.

Charity made play, closely followed by the favourite, Antonelli, Oberon, and Millonaire, and they ran in the order named for nearly half a mile, when Fordham sent Bally Edmond in advance and Charity retired in trouble to the rear. About five furlongs from home Millionaire, in close company with Antonelli, got up to the favourite's quarters, who immediately increased the pace and came on a " cracker." Just below the distance Oberon took s « » nd place, and Wells coming with a desperate rush about a hundred yards from home got up to the favourite's head, and the pair finished a most splendid race, Bally Edmond winning only by a short head ; four lengths between the second and third, Mil lionaire was fourth, the others beaten a long way. Run in 3min 54sec. The SHRUBLAND PARK STAKES of 5 sovs each, with 25 added; certain penalties; the second a gold- mounted whip; for horses bona fide the property of members of the Essex and Suffolk Hunt, or the Woodland Harriers, and that have been hunted the season 1862- 3 with either of the above packs; list 71b each ; two miles.

The Sexton made the running for a quarter of a mile, when Miss Alice took it up, and main- tained it to just below the distance, when the favourite, who had been pulling double, obtained the lead, and won easily by two lengths; ten lengths between the second and third ; Scarecrow was a very bad fourth; the others beaten off. The winner was objected to for not having been fairly hunted, and the second was also objected to for being thorough bred. Both objections, how- ever, subsequently fell to the ground. IPSWICH RACES. Stewards : Earl of Stamford and Warrington, Lord Rendlesham, Sir FP. zroy Kelly, Knt., M. P. ; A. Arcedeckne, Esq; Capt Fitz- gerald, and Capt Shawe. Judge : Mr Manning, Newmarket, lerk of the Course: Mr S. Merry. Secretary: Mr W. Spalding. This meeting was well attended on both days, for the weathe being remarkably fine and warm caused the gentry from the sur- rounding districts to assemble in large numbers. Speculation was brisk, but not very profitable to the metropolitan book makers, who mustered in strong force. The racing was very good, and several of the competitors were far better than could have been anticipated. The sport commenced on Thursday, at two o'clock, with a Selling Plate, for which six runners came to the post. Olive Branch was made the favourite, but Sanita, a cast- off from Lord Stamford's stable, proved victorious, without making a " rap" towards the Racing Fund. The Borough Plate produced a good field, and Deerfoot FRIDAY.— MATCH 25; two miles. Capt Fitzgerald's b m Charybdis, by Vortex, list 71b .. Owner 1 Mr Alderson's b g Little Tom, lOst 71b Mr Wake 2 Betting : 5 to 2 on Charybdis. The non- favourite made the running at a strong pace, and when a mile and a half had been passed over he led full one hundred yards, and, to the astonish- ment of the spectators, Charybdis caught him at the distance, and won by three lengths. The IPSWICH NURSERY HANDICAP of 10 sovs each, h ft, with 50 added ; the second saved his stake ; three quarters of a mile. Mr Uph's Lifebuoy, by Alarm, 7st 71b J.

The latter and the favourite ran in close company for a quarter of a wiile, when, in rounding the turn, both ran out, but more espe- cially the favourite, who went so far out that she never had a chance afterwards, for Lifebuoy continued the lead, and won easily by half a length; the favourite a shocking bad third. The TOWN STAKES of 25 sovs, added to a Sweepstakes of 3 sovs each ; two year olds 7st 41b, three 9st, four and upwards 9st 71b; with selling weight allowances and penalties; the winner to be sold by auction ; three quarters of a mile, t Mr Kerridge ns Folly, by Ignoramus, 2 yrs, 5st lllb ( 30 sovs) Mordan 1 Mr Nightingall's Fitz Ruyter, 3 yrs, 7st 71b ( 30).

Stewards: The Marquis of Conyngham, Montifort- Longfield, and W. Quin, Esqs. Itanger: R. Browne, Esq. Deputy- Ranger and Keeper of the Match Book : J. R. Hunter, Esq. Judge : R. J. Hunter, Esq. Starter: Mr M'Clancy, V. S. The sport we have to chronicle this week is the second meeting at head- quarters, for which a programme in most respects simi- lar to that of last year was prepared, and laboured under the de- fect of extending over four days, when three would have been amply sufficient. June, so favourable in geneal for racing, was never more so than this present season, each day at the Curragh being so delightful and the air so bracing that an unusu- ally large company assembled and participated in the sport un- der the most favourable circumstances. The first event was the Scurry Stakes, which obtained an entry of a dozen, for three of whom, namely, Exquisite, Acorn, and D. B., forfeit was paid, which left a fair field of nine to face the flag, and the non- favourite, Rudiments, by Newminster out of Days of Yore, won in a canter. Outcast ( late Grand Mas- ter) was the only one at the weights able to make a fight of it, but he was easily defeated at the close of the race. Exactly one half of the number nominated for the Stand Stakes were brought out-, and Blarney, by Claret, who was made the favourite, landed the money without any trouble; and the condition he was brought to the post in by John Grady, private trainer to Mr Longfield, at the Curragh, reflected much credit on him. Redskin, in fine form, won the Kirwans in a cantey from Troublesome and Robin Hood, and next day beat Socrates and three others cleverly for the Stewards' Plate— performances that proved him to be better than was generally supposed. Wednesday's racing opened with a ter- rific struggle for a selling plate between a party of five, D. B. turning up the winner by a great effort at the finish. The entries for the Queen's Plates were so few, and the horses of so little value, that Tourist had no trouble in winning the plates on the two first days. The Nursery Stakes, on the second day, fell to Caroline, by Ivan out of Coquette, a well- grown filly, but one that requires time to furnish and develop her powers. Less than a third of the two year olds engaged in the Waterford Testi- monials appeared, and Lord Douglas, by Claret, won in fine style, but from his indifferent running in the Stand Stakes on the first day lie was not backed by his stable or the public, although long shots, in some instances, were offered against him. Socrates and Dhu Regan were the sole competitors for Her Majesty's guineas, over the three mile course, and the much spoken of Dhu Regan suffered an easy defeat, and did not prove the flyer many fancied him to be. Troublesome, by Hobbie Noble, defeated Minerva and five others cleverly for the Kildare Handicap, over the Peel Course, which brought the racing on Thursday to a close. TUESDAY, JUNE 23.— The SCUBBY STAKES of 5 sovs each, with 25 added; Anglesey Post ( 6 furlongs). Capt R. Goff's b f Rudiments, by Newminster, 3 yrs, 7st31b Hibberd 1 Mr P.

They ran fairly to- eether, Rudiments leading, for about half a mile, when thelot behind her began to tail off, with the exception of Outcast, who ran gamely under punishment, but could not reach Rudiments, and was beaten in a canter by three quarters of a length.

After one false start, Tourist made the running at a slow pace along the flat, with Harvey Birch alongside, until about a distance from home, where the latter was in trouble, and Tourist won in a canter by three lengths. Dhu Regan finished a very bad third, and Bryan O'Linn was beaten at the turn for home. Run in 3min 54sec.

At the second at- tempt they got off'in line, Laura with a good inside birth, but up to a distance from home it was any one's race. Black Deer then showed slightly in advance, but was quickly joined by Blarney, who drew away and won very easily by a length. Waterloo was a moderate third, the Marquis a bad fourth, Laura was fifth, Lord Douglas sixth, and the Fugitive filly last.

A splendid set- to then ensued, and ended in favour of D. B. by half a length ; a dead heat between the other two ; Laura and the Queen filly were beaten off.

Lord Douglas, next the rails, with Marquis and Physic were the first to show slightly in advance till near home, when Black Deer made his effort, but could not shake off Lord Douglas, and was defeated easily by a length and a half; a neck between the third and fourth.

MBEDITOB : This fine pack met on June 15 shortly afterdaybreak at Annan. Put in at Mount Annan, where Old Wellington, with his well- known voice, soon announced that an otter had been in the neighbourhood at no very distant date, the drag being taken up hotly by the pack, and, after some hours' capital sport, being strongly pressed, he took refuge in a drain, from which, owing to the unusually heavy state of the water, it was found impossible to dislodge him. TUESDAY, 16.— Cast off at Kettle Holme Bridge, on the Water of Milk. After trying up the stream for some distance, Joj ful and Alma acknowledged that an otter had been fishing down the water, to White Hill, that morning, and was now on his way up; the drag gradually grew warm, and fast, and, after a splendid bit of hunting, he was marked at a Well known " holt," some distance above Castle Milk Bridge, where we were baulked of our game, owing to the strength of the " buile." Took off the hounds, and tried up the river to near Murrayfield, where, after a rattling chevy of a couple of hours, the hounds succeeded in pulling down a fine dog otter, over 121b weight. WEDNESDAY, 17, saw us at Scrogg Bridge, on the Milk, at an early hour; got upon a drag immediately past the Mill Dam ; rattled through the Lynns, away to the junction of the Corry Water, where we met with a check, owing to some sheep washing higher up. Cast up the Corry Water to no good; put back to Milk, where the hounds soon hit him off again, and carried the scent as far as Paddock Hole Bridge. It was now evident we had overrun our game, and on lifting the hounds back to Underwood found in a strong root. After an exciting swim were obliged to stop proceedings for the day, owing to a sudden fresh coming down. The meet on Thursday was at William Wath Bridge, on the Annan, to try Dormant Island, generally a sure find. Not at home. Took the hounds across country to Kettleholme Bridge, where, although late in the day, we soon got on a drag, which was carried full cry through park and woods up to the fish ponds at Castle Milk, the seat of J. Jardine, Esq ; then down the banks again to the water, about a mile from where the hounds first spoke, when Alma, Inkerman, and Warrior marked him at an ash root, from which, after a good " houk," he broke and took the land, hotly pursued by the whole pack for some distance along the banks. Finding he was losing ground, he dived again into the water, and after a spirited run of an hour and fifty minutes he was tailed in mid- water by the gallant master. He proved to be a well- grown dog otter, somewhat under 201b weight. Mr Gallon was accompanied, as usual, by a large party of gentle- men from all parts of the country, who duly appreciated the ex- ertions of the able master to show them sport.— Yours, & o, ECCLEFECHAN. THE VOLUNTEERS. LONDON RIFLE BBIGADE.- The annual inspectisn of this corps by its colonel, the Duke of Cambridge, took place on Saturday, June 20, in Hyde Park. There was a large attendance of spec- trtors, but a somewhat poor muster of the brigade, the actual numbers present being but 575. Of the remainder of the brigade 232 were absent with leave, and 191 without leave. The brigade was under the command of Lieutenant- Colonel Warde. The in- spection was commenced by the brigade marching past at slow, quick, at the double, and in open and close formation. After the marching past they went through all the infantry evolutions upon a small scale of a field- day. At the conclusion, the duke addressed the battalion, and expressed himself highly pleased with their drill. A sham fight at Wanstead took place also on Baturday, June 20, under the command of Lord Ranelagh, and was emi- nently successful. The South Middlesex, 29th North Middlesex, Tower Hamlets, Essex Rifles, and other corps took part, the force altogether amounting to nearly^ 3,000 men. VOLUNTEEB GATHERING AT WESTMINSTEB ABBEY.— On Wed- nesday evening, June 24, there was a great gathering of volunteers in the nave of Westminster Abbey, for the purpose of joining in the glorious choral service of the church, and hearing an address from the Archbishop of York. It is understood that the invitation to the volunteers generally proceeded from the Inns of Court Corps, to which his grace is chaplain, having accepted that office when he was preacher of Lincoln's Inn. The spacious nave was well filled, officers and men, effectives, honorary members, and civilians being mixed up together, with here and there a few ladies. The uniforms were of all possible descriptions, of almost every regiment in and about London. FATAL FIGHT AT PIMLICO. On Wednesday evening Mr Bedford held an inquest at St George's Vestry Room, Mount- street, Grosvenor- square, on the death of Charles Osborn, aged 26, carman. It appeared that deceased and Richard Pelham ( wh » has since been charged before the magistrate with manslaughter) were drinking together at the Rising Sun, Pimlico, when the de- ceased and Pelham quarrelled. After fighting several rounds they would have ceased and been good friends, but some of the by- standers advised them to go on. They renewed the fight and had several falls, in which the deceased fell uppermost. After they had ceased the deceased was standing alone, and, without a blow or push from any one, he suddenly fell on his face with great violence, as if from exhaustion. He never spoke afterwards, and was picked up apparently lifeless and carried into, the public- house, when Dr Way was sent for, who pronounced him dead. Dr Way made a post mortem examination of the body. He found some superficial wounds on the face, but the boae of the nose was broken. The cause of death he said was not clear, but he thought it arose from concussion of the brain. The jury held that " Death arose from concussion of the brain, prcs4v. ce< A by a fall, caused, by exhaustion." 6 BELL'S LIFE IN LONDON, JUNE 21, 1863. AQUATIC REGISTER, HIGH WATER AT LONDON BRIDGE.

ROYAL THAMES YACHT CLUB- A special meeting of this club was held on Thursday evening, to receive the report of the select committee recently appointed. Lord de Eos took the chair, and Mr J. Wilkinson read the report, which we append below. A series of resolutions following the recommendaiions of the report were then proposed, and almost unanimously adopted after very little discussion. There were not above seventy members present, and the feeling of the meet- ing was against any discussion or delay, nearly every one appear- ing to be wearied out and ready to submit to anything for the sake of quiet. We presume that the club will have the satisfac- tion of seeing Lord Alfred Paget resume his position as Commo- dore at the schooner match on Saturday. " Your committee, in pursuance of the directions given to them, have met several times, and fully considered the matters referred to them, and beg to submit the following report:— " lst. The anomalous position of the club in being left without flag officers naturally engaged the immediate attention of your committee: the removal of that anomaly was considered by them of the utmost importance, and the first step to be taken in dis- charge of the duty imposed upon them. The general feeling of the club, evinced by the unanimous re- election of Lord Alfred Paget to the office of Commodore, and by the regret expressed upon his subsequent refusal to accept the office, led your com- mittee to the conclusion that it was essential to the interests of the club that he should be prevailed upon to resume the office of Commodore. Your committee accordingly put themselves in communication with him, and they have the satisfaction of re- porting that Lord Alfred Paget is ready to undertake that office. Your committee have annexed to this report a letter from his lord- ship explanatory of the grounds upon which he ha3 acted, and they take this occasion of acknowledging the co- operation they have received from the late committee of management, who, toge- ther with a large number of members, addressed a written requi- sition to his lordship to resume his position. " 2d. The club has on its list so many members well qualified for the office of Vice- Commodore, that your committee felt great diffi- culty in making any selection. They have, however, been relieved from embarrassment by the consent of Lord De Ros, one of the oldest members and supporters of the club, to be nominated as Vice- Commodore. Your committee cordially recommend this ap- pointment, in the belief that it will be acceptable to the club, and they have the satisfaction of adding that Lord A. Paget entirely concurs in the proposal. " 3d. The twelfth section of the rules prescribes that all moneys collected by the secretary shall be paid over to the treasurer, but no provision is made for the investment and security of the funds and property of the club. Your committee strongly recommend that this omission should be now rectified by the appointment of five trustees ( the number when reduced by death or resignation to three to be immediately filled up by the club), into whose names the funds and property of the club shall be transferred ; and that the Commodore, Vice- Commodore, and Mr Hutchons, the late treasurer, whose long and able services have tended so materially to the prosperity of the club, should be three of such trustees. " 4th. Tlieoffice of treasurer is unusual in associations of this cha- racter, and is, in the opinion of your committee, unnecessary; they therefore recommend that the office shall be abolished. They further recommend that all moneys collected by the secretary shall be paid by him as soon as practicable, and without any de- duction, to the account of the club with the bankers, and that no payments shall be made except by the orders of the general com- mittee of management, and by checks signed by the chairman for the time being and one other member of such committee, and countersigned by the secretary. " 5th. In the opinion of your committee, the secretary, being a paid officer, should he appointed by the general committee of management, and hold office during good behaviour. They there- fore recommend that the general committee of management should have the absolute power of appointing and dismissing this officer under such regulations as may be hereafter sanctioned by the club. " 6th. In order to insure co- operation in the performance of duties respectively entrusted to the Commodore, Vice- Commo dore, and general committee of management, your committee recommend that the Commodore shall, in the month of March in every year, appoint seven members of the general committee to act. as the sailing committee. " 7th. The attention of your committee has been necessarily directed to the rules, and although they are unwilling to lengthen their report by further allusion to them, they are of opinion that the general committee should be requested to revise and make such alterations in the rules as may properly carry out the fore- going recommendations should the club approve them; all which your committee beg to submit." The following is the answer of Lord A. Paget to the special committee:— " 42, Grosvenor- place, June 15, 1863. " GENTLEMEN: I feel proud that the committee appointed by the E. T. Y. C. to take into consideration its present position should have done me the honour to inform me that they had resolved ' That it is essential to the interests of the club that their late Commodore should resume his office.' I need scarcely assure you, and the club generally, that I shall never forget the kind feelings which have been displayed towards me on all occasions. Before I acceded to your request I felt bound to submit your resolution to those old colleagues with whom I had acted for many years, and I beg to enclose a copy of their views on the subject, with the signatures of the committee, together with a list of 140 names, which it appears have been appended to their resolution. I wish to avoid on the present occasion all reference to the original cause of disturbance in the harmony which had previously existed amongst us, and to waive all personal feelings, considering alone the welfare of the club. It remains to me, therefore, but to express my willingness to defer to the wishes of the club, and of the special committee, and to serve them again to the very best of my ability in the office of Commodore.— Yours, & c, " ALFRED PAGET." ^ Thenext quarterly general meeting will be held on Wednesday, July 1, when several yacht owners will be ballotted for and the half- yearly audited report submitted. ROYAL HARWICH YACHT CLUB. On Wednesday, July 8, the opening trip of the Royal Harwich Yacht Club will take place by the yachts sailing in company to Walton- on- the- Naze, and the members are to partake of a luncheon at the Grand Hotel, in compliment to Mr Peter Bruff, who is a great supporter of the R. H. Y. C., and on Wednesday, July 22, the regatta will take place; and, from the numerous promises of sup- port, a great meeting is anticipated. The Great Eastern Railway arrangements will be of the most liberal character. ROYAL WELSH YACHT CLUB, CARNARVON. A special meeting of this club was held at the club house on Tuesday, June 23, the Rear- Commodore presiding. M. Wynn of Bronywendon was balloted for, and duly elected a member. It was resolved that a pic- nic, under the auspices of the club, should take place at Belan Fort, at the entrance of the Menai Straits, on the day after the regatta. The members of the club, the magis- trates, the principal clergy, the elite of the counties of Carnarvon and Anglesey, and members of royal yacht clubs attending the regatta will be invited to join. F. Kilsby of the Old Barge House will row H. Stratford of Lambeth or E. May of Vauxhall ( May preferred), or will join in a sweepstakes of £ 25 each, the winner to take the £ 75. V. Kilsby will be at Mr Pankhurst's, Duchy of Cornwall, on Monday, June 29, prepared to make a match. ROYAL WESTERN YACHT CLUB OF IRELAND REGATTA. The regatta of this club was held on Thursday and Friday, the 18th and 19th inet, and excited considerable interest, from the fact of its being the first occasion upon which the new clippers met after their match in the Thames, where many considered that the nature of the weather did not afford a satisfactory test of their abilities; and also in their having two other formidable antago- nists in the new Scottish clipper, the Surf, and the Heroine. The arrangements of the meeting afforded general satisfaction, and were carried out with a spirit and energy that reflected the highest credit on the officers and members of the club. On the Wednesday previously several yachts were under weigh, and amongst them the Heroine, Surf, and Avoca, taking, as it were, their preliminary gallops, hut the most inveterate of the tribe of tipsters would have failed to discover anything upon which to found a confidential communication, and although such odds as 100 to 1 were talked of in certain quarters, yet we believe imagi- nation had a good deal to do with it, for any yachtsman upon looking at the fine fleet of yachts that were entered would have acknowledged himself fairly puzzled to select a favourite. As usual u^ on occasions where a number of new vessels are about to contend, the most extraordinary stories afforded the curious in nautical legends no small amusement; of one it was said that a considerable portion of quicksilver had been so artfully fitted into her as quite to defy all rules against shifting ballast; of another that her sofas ran on invisible rails, after such a fashion as always to preserve a position to windward with heavy charges of loose shot instead of the usual hair stuffings; whilst a third, it was hinted, had a party of very fat individuals, selected with immense care in London, who were to join her upon the eve of the race, and resolve themselves into shot bags for the nonce. In fact, the shifting ballast question proved an inexhaustible subject of con- versation and conjecture, quite a sensation topic of an aquatic tendency. The first race dn Thursday was for Her Majesty's Cup, for which the following vessels took their positions at the starting buays:— TON'S. .... 48 .... 47 .... 45 .... 34.... .... 50.... .... 30....

AVALANCHE VINDEX COOLAN PHOSPHORUS CRUSADER SURF PHRYNE AVOCA ( late Sibyl) ECHO The Osprey, 59 tons, E. W. Nunn, was also entered, but did not arrive until the following day. At 12: 26 ( Greenwich time) the start took place, and a very beautiful one it was, with the wind at S. E., rather a light breeze. The course was altered from the usual one sailed in Cork Bay, the three seaward flagboats being shifted more up into the Bay, the vessels going twice round the course, coming into the harbour, and rounding the Harbour Rock Buoy on the first round. The Heroine was the first to break from the line of vessels, and went round the Spit Light with a fine lead, the Viudex second, the Avalanche and Surf abeam third, Phryne fourth, Avoca fifth. Phosphorus and Echo abeam sixth, and the Crusader and Coo- lan seventh. At 12: 45, going down Man of War Roads, the Surf reached abeam and ahead of Vindex; the Phryn£ tried to reach through the Avalanche's lee, but the latter held her own gallantly, and the Avoca came gliding warily up between them. At 1: 5: 30 the Heroine passed Roche's Point Lighthouse, at 1: 6 the Surf passed, at 1: 7 the Vindex, at 1: 7: 30 the Phryne, with the remain- ing vessels well up. It was a turn to windward to the eastern flagboat. At 1: 15 the Vindex drew abeam of the Surf to leeward, and at 1: 15: 30 the Phosphorus and Surf made the firsttack to port, an example immediately followed by the Heroine, Phrynfe, and Avalanche. The Vindex stood well down the bay on the port tack, and did not go about until 1: 20: 30. There was a good deal of excitement at this period of the race, for the Heroine still held her lead gallantly, and the English and Scottish clippers appeared to be warily calculating each other's powers. The eastern flag- boat was rounded in the following order and times:— Heroine, 1: 28: 30; Surf, 1: 29: 40; PhrynS, 1: 30: 30; Avalanche, 1: 33; Vindex, 1: 33: 15; Phosphorus, 1: 33: 40; and then the Echo and Avoca abeam, with the Crusader and Coolan close up. All shifted for balloon jibs, and maintained the same order in the run to the southern flagboat, but the Surf drew considerably on the Heroine, and challenged her at the boat, which both rounded at 1: 41: 30, when the Surf luffed on the Irish champion's weather quarter, passed her, and took the lead. The Phryne rounded at 1: 42, Avalanche and Vindex abeam at 1: 45, Phosphorus at 1: 47, and the Avoca, Echo, Crusader, and Coolan in the order of their names. At 1: 52, going for the western flagboat the Phrynfe challenged the Surf for the lead, and ran abeam of her to windward, the Heroine at the same time drawing up under her lee. England, Scotland, and Ireland beam and beam, and the race now began to assume a more decided aspect; still the light weights held a formidable position, and began to draw up on the leading vessels, bringing up with them a better breeze. At two o'clock the Phrynfe took the lead, the Heroine holding her own with the Surf. The western flagboat was rounded in the folowing^ order:— Phrynfe 2: 1: 45, Surf 2: 1: 46, Heroine 2: 1: 50, Avalanche 2: 5: 47, Vindex 2: 5: 48, Phos- phorus 2: 6: 0; Echo, Avoca, Crusader, and Coolan astern. At 2: 14: 30 the Phosphorus ran to windward of and passed Vindex, and the Phryne and Surf increased their lead. At 2: 24 between Camden and Carlisle forts the wind became light and baffling, and it looked very much as if the sternmost vessels would run up with the last of the breeze, and the match commence over again ; how- ever the Phryne and Surf got clear, and the Harbour Rock Buoy was rounded thus:— Phryne 2: 37: 5, Surf 2: 37: 45, Heroine 2: 40: 0, Phosphorus 2: 40: 25, Vindex2: 41, Avalanche 2: 41: 50, with the Avoca, Echo, Coolan, and Crusader all close together. Going out of the harbour the second time it began to rain slightly; the Phos- phorus passed Heroine into third place, and the Vindex drew up to windward of Heroine. Entering the Narrows the vessels shifted their balloon for working head canvas; the Vindex, Heroine, and Avalanche got becalmed for a short time under Carlisle Fort, and had to run off from under the high land to get into the true breeze. Roche's Point Light was passed the second time by Phryne at 3: 6: 45, Surf 3: 7, Phosphorus at 3: 12: 5. On the turn to windward for the second rounding of the eastern boat it was evident that the Surf was holding a better wind than her antagonists. At 3: 19: 30 the PhrynS tacked to port, and the Surf weathered her handsomely, and immediately went about on the PhrynS's weather. At 3: 22 both vessels tacked to star- board, the Surf leading, with the Phrynd on her weather quarter. Here was the struggle of the race; the Phryne trie! to draw up to windward and cover the Surf, but the Scottish clipper fairly eat her out of the wind, and took. the lead for the second time. The eastern boat was rounded the second time in the fol- lowing order:— Surf 3: 29, Phryne 3: 29: 30, Phosphorus 3: 32, Heroine 3: 39, Vindex 3: 41: 15; the remaining vessels well up. The working head canvas again gave place to balloon jibs and foresails, and the southern boat was reached without change of order in the following times:— Surf 3: 42: 15, Phryne 3: 43: 30, Phosphorus 3: 46: 15, Heroine 3: 52, Vindex 3: 54: 45. Nearing the western boat the Surf shifted her ballooa for working jib, and the boat was reached and rounded thus:— Surf 3: 57,' Phryne 3: 58, Phosphorus 4: 0: 48, Heroine 4: 7. From this boat it became a splendid match into the harbour between the Surf, Phryne, and Phosphorus— one of the best ever seen in Cork waters. After the Surf and PhrynS had rounded the Spit Lighthouse the wind fell very light, the Phosphorus still carrying up a rattling breeze. The PhyrnS ran up on the Surf's weather quarter and covered her, and now came the anxious moment, for there were long odds that the Phos- phorus. with her wind clear, would run up and take her time off at the flagship, the Surf being unable to get from under the lee of the Pliryne; however, at the critical period the Scottish lassie just managed, by the judicious handling of her sailing master, T. Walker, to get her bowsprit and jib free and gently to glide ahead, and the flagboat was reached in the following order and times:— GREENWICH TIME. H. M. S. I H. M. S.

The Surf was declared the winner by 47sec. The Inman Challenge Cup was postponed until Friday, in con- sequence of all the vessels entered electing to go for the Queen's Cup. On Friday the first prize was a very handsome cup, presented by Sir Robert Peel, Bart, M. P., of the value of 59 guineas, with a purse of £ 25 added by the club, for which the following vessels started:— H. M. S. AVOCA 5 181 COOLAN 5 5 44 CRUSADER 5 13 25 YACHT. TONS. OWNER. VINDEX 45....

Nunn The gun was fired at 12: 26 ( Greenwich time), and a beautiful start ensued. The wind was at N., veering to N. W. and W., and not so steady as on the previous day, blowing more in veins and flaws. The Phryne went away at once with a strong lead, and rounded the Spit Lighthouse first, with Osprey second, Phosphorus and Surf beam and beam third, and Vindex and Heroine close up. Going through the Man of War Roads the wind lightened, but the Phrynd still kept slipping away; the Phos- phorus ran into the second place; the Vindex passed the Heroine to windward and ran up beam and beam with the Surf and Osprey. Roche's Point Light was passed the first time as fol- lows :— PhrvnS 1: 12, Phosphorus 1: 14: 45, Vindex 1: 14: 46, Osprey 1: 15: 30, Surf 1: 15: 32, Heroine 1: 16: 30. As they reached away for the eastern flagboat the Phryne increased her lead, the Phos- phorus drew away a good seccnd, with the Vindex in close at- tendance on her third, Osprey fourth, Surf fifth, and Heroine sixth, all under large topsails and balloon jibs. At 1: 21 the Surf passed the Osprey to windward, and took fourth place. The eastern boat was jibed round in the following order the first time:— PhrynS 1: 23: 30, Phosphorus 1: 28, Vindex 1: 28: 20, Surf 1: 29: 30, Osprey 1: 30, Heroine 1: 31: 30. Without change of order thsy ran to the southern flagboat, which was rounded at the fol- lowing times:— Phryne 1: 34: 45, Phosphorus 1: 38: 45, Vindex 1: 39: 15, Surf 1: 40: 30, Osprey 1: 42, Heroine 1: 42: 45. Going for the western flagboat the wind narrowed, and the Phosphorus, Vin- dex, and Surf shifted their balloon for working jibs. The western boat was rounded in the following order:— Phrynfe 1: 47, Phos- phorus 1: 57, Vindex 1: 58: 30, Surf 2, Osprey 2: 2: 30, Heroine 2: 4: 30. Up through the Narrows, coming into the har- beur the first time, there was a beat to windward, when the Phosphorus, Vindex, and Surf, in the order of their names, drew up under the Phryne's lae considerably. There was a very pretty piece of sailing for the Bar Rock Buoy, which was rounded in the following order and times :— PhrynS 2: 47: 30, Phssphorus 2: 52, Vindex 2: 52: 45, Surf 2: 54: 30, Osprey 2: 57, Heroine 2: 57: 30. All set their balloon head canvas for the run down wind, and on passing Boche's Point the second time the Vindex ran through the Phosphorus's lee, and took second place. There was no fur- ther change of importance in the second round of the course, save that the Phryne increased her lead on her antagonists, and the flagship was reached in the following order and times, the PhrynS winning the prize :— H. M. S. I H. M. S. H. M. S.

Inman, of Liverpool, with a purse of sovereigns added by the club ; same conditions as the previous races. The following vessels started :— YACHT. TONS. OWNER. AVOCA .... 40.. Vice- Com O'Bryen. COOLAN. .. 34.. G. Robinson. YACHT, TONS. OWNER. AVALANCHE. 50.. J. Wheeler. ECHO 36.. G. Putlaiul. CRUSADER ... 30.. Lieut Sladen, R. A, . The starting gun was fired at one o'clock. The Avoca took the lead round the Spit, with the Avalanche second, Crusader third, and the Echo and Coolan close up. The wind, as we have already stated, was very light and uncertain. The Avoca led to the eastern flagboat, when, unfortunately, a collision took place between her and the Avalanche in rounding the boat, arising out of that knotty point of " which was nearest the flagboat;" the Avalanche took the lead half- way to the southern boat, when the Avoca again passed ; but going for the western boat the Avalanche resumed the lead, which she held during the remainder of the match. Coming into the harbour for the last time the Avoca got becalmed on the western shore, which the Echo perceiving made a judicious tack over to the eastern land, where she got the true breeze, wea- thered the Avoca, and took second place. They arrived at the flagship in the following order and times:— H. M. s. I H. M. s. I H. M. s. AVALANCHE.... 5 42 5 AVOCA 5 54 20 CRUSADER 5 56 50 ECHO 5 52 45 | The Avalanche was declared to be the winner of the Cup. There were a number of prizes for local rowing boats on both days, and also for men- of- war boats, and a sailing match for a silver cup, value five guineas, for boats under 28 feet over all, which was won in excellent style by the Lady Audiey, Mr Richardson, defeating the Shamrock, Mr Oakley; the Lap- wing, Mr G. Dawson; and the Yankee, Mr W. Hogan. The Gig Race, for gentlemen amateurs, for a challenge cup, value £ 20, with a purse of £ 10 added, was contested for by the Dream, C. H. R. C., manned by Mr. Corbett ( stroke), Mr Mintear, Mr O'Connor, Mr Daly, and Mr Drinan ( cox), against the Garrison gig, manned by Lieut Ellis, Captain White, Captain Anderson, and Captain Robinson, Mr Walker ( cox). The course was about two miles and a half. The Dream's crew proved the victors, performing the distance in some twenty minutes. The usual amusements for the spectators on shore, in the shape of punt chases, and pig- and- pole hunts, were provided amply. The club quay was crowded on both days, the band of the depot, and one brought from Dublin, performing alternately. The officers and members of the club entertained the yacht owners and their friends who attended the regatta to a banquet at the Queen's Hotel on Thursday evening, when the ample re- sources of the spirited proprietor, Mr Elliott, were brought into requisition. Vice- Commodore O'Bryen presided, supported by Rear- Commodore O'Keefe. A most agreeable evening was passed. The regatta was brought to a close by a very fine display of fireworks from the club quay on Friday even- ing. Everything passed off with much eclat; and the officers and members of the Royal Western Yacht Club of Ireland have every reason to be satisfied with the appreciation shown by the numerous yatchsmen who attended the regatta, and that their desire to promote yachting interests and sport has been attended with the success their energetic endeavours merited. Amongst those most prominent in carrying out the programme of entertainments were Vice- Commodore O'Bryen, Rear- Commodore O'Keefe, Capt 8eymour, J. P.; Capt Btewart, R. N., and Newen- ham Harvey, Esq. H. M. S. Hastings, Hawke, Advice, and Ferret, together with the fleet of gunboats in harbour, were dressed in their gayest bunting, as were also the numerous fleet of yachts not engaged in the contests. The Royal Cork Yacht Club very courteously issued invitations to their club house to the yacht owners snd their friends attending the regatta. Admiral Sir Lewis T. Jones, commanding on the Irish station, proceeded to sea with the yachts on board the Blaser gunboat, Lieut Raymond. RANELAGH YACHT CLUB. At a meeting of the Sailing Committee of this club, held at the club house last week, the arrangements respecting the second match of the season were made, viz, to take place on Friday, July 10, when two handsome prizes, the gifts of the Commodore ( Col G. P. Evelyn) and the Vice- Commodore ( Mr Ingram Pick), will be sailed for. The course from North Woolwich to Gravesend, and finish at Erith. A steamboat, with the band of the First Royal Surrey Militia on board, to accompany the race, will leave Hungerford Pier at 10: 15 a. m., calling at London Bridge at 10: 30 precisely. Yachts not already measured to be at their stations at ten o'clock on the morning of the match for that purpose. VICTORIA MODEL YACHT CLUB. On Wednesday, June 17, a very interesting match, for a hand- some Silver Challenge Cup, was sailed at the bathing water, Victoria Park, by models of the second class, belonging to members of this club. It being very fine weather a great number of spectators were present, who seemed to take a great interest in the proceed- ings. Twelve boats were entered for the match, but only nine put in an appearance at 5: 30 p. m., when the race was timed to start. Under the able superintendence of the Commodore ( A. Carter, Esq), the members drew for places, and the match having to be sailed in three heats, two heats and a winners' heat, the fol- lowing boats took their stations for the first heat, and a good start was effected at 6: 5 :— SILVER STAR Cutter Blue EMMA Cutter White and red cross WASP Gunter Red and white cross SWIFT Cutter White and red border PLANET Cutter Blue and white diamond The course was twice up and down the lake, with a light running and beating wind, with their balloon topsails set. The three first, with Planet, made the running to theend in quick style; but inthe return to windward the Wasp drew out, followed by Silver Star, which soon overhauled and passed the Wasp, arriving at the end of round 1 first boat, when her owner, thinking the course was only once round, left her for some seconds, but the Commodore having told him of his error he quickly rectified it, and the last round maintained his place first, Emma second. Time, 19J minutes. SECOND HEAT. NYMPH Cutter White and blue border SOL Cutter White and Sun BESSIE Cutter Red and white ALBION Cutter Blue and red cross The breeze having now freshened a little, these boats were started at 6: 30, when it was at once seen that the race was entirely between the three first, the Albion appearing to us not to be in very good trim. The Bessie, a new boat, with very fine lines and immense spread of canvas, seemed however to have the best of it, although at times in the gusts she was almost on her beam ends ; but her immense topsail in the light winds did her good service, and eventually put her ia the first place. Time, 17min. Incon- sequence of a protest made by the owners of the Sol and Nymph, the Bessie was judged to be third iu the heat, but was, at the same time, allowed to compete in the final heat, for which the following boats started:— NYMPH | EMMA | BESSIE | SILVER STAR | SOL Great excitement was now evinced as to the result of the heat, Silver Star and Bessie being rather the favourites. The wind was now much fresher, and a splendid start was made at 7: 11. Thev all ran in a cluster to the end, when the owner of the Nymph very wisely lowered his topsail, as the wind was very strong and puffy, and, as an immediate consequence, in a few moments was far to windward of the whole fleet. The Bessie, unfortunately, fouled Silver Star, and carried away her bobstay and broke her jibboom, thus losing her chance in the race. The other boats, having now been eased of their topsails, went away at a good pace, but never overtook the Nymph, which came in a winner at 7: 27, Emma about four yards behind. We are pleased to see that this club is progressing very well, and do not doubt, from the support they meet with from the park authorities and the public, that they will eventually be in a flourishing condition. The cup will be again sailed for in a few weeks, due notice of which will be given in our columns; the condition on which it is sailed for being that the same boat must win it twice during the season. IRISH MODEL YACHT CLBB. JUNE 20.— The old adage, " that it is a long lane which has no turning," is certainly most applicable to the luck of this club, which, for the last three years, has been persecuted with weather for their matches which was enough to have broken the heart of a stone, much less of an hon secretary, who had all the alterations and postponements on his hands to settle and announce; but this season has been favoured with two of the most beautiful days for regatta purposes which could be imagined. The race fixed for this occasion was for a binnacle and compass, open to all yachts of the club not exceeding 20 tons, manned and steered by members or members of a royal yacht club, one paid hand only allowed in each boat, Long Course, half- minute time alio wed. The entry was but small, as the Pet, one of the usual antagonists, is, to a certain degree, identified with the interests of the donor of the prize, and he would not, therefore, start her for his own gift. The owner of the Sappho was absent in England, and the new boat ( the Glide) could not be got ready in time; but the quality and equality of the contending vessels made up for the lack of quantity. At half- past one o'clock the signal to take sta- tions was seen fluttering at the topmast head of the Pet, which, gaily decked with flags and with a most for- midable piece of artillery peeping over her bulwarks, did duty as flag- vessel, and the little craft began to move to their allotted positions, and here the value of the warning which had been ad- dressed through the columns of Bell's Life to the offenders on the previous day, and which has always proved so efficacious when sounded in the ears of our legislators, " that if the hon member persists in his disorderly conduct he will be named to the house" was at once seen, as instead of straggling all over the har- bour, the yachts took up each her proper station with a regularity and beauty of dressing which would have done honour to a regi- ment of the Guards. At No. 1 buoy, first in rank but last in fa- vour, being dead to leeward, lay the hardy Dove, the winner of so many hard- sailed matches, her gay fighting flag displaying a columbe volante argent on afield azure, as the heralds would say, fluttering gaily from her topmast head. Next her was the sprightly little Virago, like a pigmy between two giants, her old and sorely besmirched banner, argent with a cross azure, nailed above a thundering gaff topsail which, with the breeze which was blowing, seemed enough to carry her bodily through the air without any support from the sister element In berth No. 3 the Austrian colours of the pretty Carina, who had done so well in her maiden race on these waters, were unluckily missing, while it No. 4 lay the admitted champion of the light weights of the bay, the saucy Magnet, the lone star of Texas waving gracefully from her signal halyards. Short time was given for reflection after all were at their posts, and at 2: 15 the first gun awoke the echoes of the bay, and with commendable punctuality, at 2: 21, the second set the high mettled racers upon their journey. In- stantly the Virago, being quickest on her legs, jumped off with a strong lead, and got through the harbour's mouth twenty seconds before the others, who followed beam and beam ; but thus early in the day " something rotten in the state of Denmark'' was dis- covered by the parting of the Dove's jib purchase fall, followed by the stranding of her topsail sheet ( why will men race with rotten gear) ? Away they sped with a fresh southerly breeze, the Virago with her old helmsman at the tiller, going straight out for the ship, E. S. E„ six miles, rightly calculating that the strong ebb tide would counteract any lee way she made, and shove her well round the mark, while the other two, on the principle of keeping to windward, shaped a course by themselves. Well done. Magnet, however, as she soon gave the Dove a sight of the reeving of her mainslieet, and being well served by the strong breeze and slight roll, walked to the front with an all- over- expressed intention to win, and round the ship she came lmin 55sec before the Virago, and some five minutes before the Dove. Here it was out balloon jibs, and away before the wind six- miles and a half to East Barbary, leaving the North Bur- ford Buoy on their port hands; and now the Magnet's crew made a most unaccountable mistake for men who had so often and so lately traversed the course, for, despite all wavings of hats and shoutings from friendly vessels, they persisted in steering right awav for the East Bar, leaving the Burford Buoy to starboard; in the run she got right away from the Dove, and improved her lead of the Virago, though her mistake did not improve her chance, as she caught the strong tide on , lier starboard bow, and her head- sails were quite useless, being dead before the wind. At this point the crowd of yachts in company gave the scene a most ani- mated and stirring appearance, and impromptu races were going on in all directions, the Amy an J Witch schooners in particular having a most determined set- to, ending in the discomfiture of that ancient female on the broomstick, while the fresh breeze and smooth water gave a good chance to every one of doing all he knew how. The East Bar was rounded— Magnet 4: 29, Virago 4: 31: 15, Dove 4: 46, and then in ballooners and away on a close haul to South Bar, which they made— Magnet 4: 38: 10, Virago 4: 40: 25, Dove 4: 58; thence it was a dead beat of two miles to the harbour, and here the Magnet displayed splendid weatherly qualities; the buoy was no sooner reached than round she came, and reached righ t out on the starboard tack for about five m inutes, when shecame about and stood well up for the back of West Pier. The Virago held her reach round the buoy, hopi ng to get an advantage close in shore, but smelling the sand which had been so fatal to her chance the previous Saturday was soon about again, and held tack for tack with the Magnet, while the Dove stood right over under Howth, hoping to get a slant of wind which would bring her right down to the harbour, a fluke which not unfrequently comes off in the evening in Dublin Bay. It was no use, however, as the breeze held true, and the Magnet had the race in hand, and at 5: 21 the gun from the battery of the Royal Irish Yacht Club, so often and so kindly placed at the disposal of yachtsmen requiring it, roared forth its welcome to the gallant little clipper, repeated at 5: 26: 30 for the Virago; but alack and well- a- day, hardly had the hon secretary sat down to his well- earned dinner, when a boat along- side was announced, and an ominous- looking document handed in, " I protest,'' & c. The case was too plain, however, to be dis- puted, and the committee, which met on the Tuesday, at once decided that the Magnet must be disqualified, and the prize go to the Virago, a decision which the owner of the Magnet was a great deal to good a sportsman to gainsay, albeit he was much disappointed at seeing his well- earned prize thus 3lip from his grasp. The next match of the club is fixed for July 4, for yachts of the second and fourth classes; and their crowning match, that for the Challenge Cup and Captaincy for the ensuing season, will be sailed on July 13, the day but one before the regatta of the Royal Irish Yacht Club. REGATTAS IN DUBLIN BAY. MR EDITOR: May I call the attention ef the officials for the forthcoming regattas in Dublin Bay, through the medium of your valuable journal, to the way in which the Thames and London yacht clubs have of late been adding much to their day's sport— I allude to their extra matches. I feel sure that if a prize was offered on each day of the Kingstown Regatta for yachts that have not won a match for some years, or that have never won at all, many owners would be induced to contend. The Thames face- tiously call this match a " donkey race," arid though the name is hardly applicable to the smart craft that contend for this prize, yet as the yachts would only be in ordinary sea- going trim, with- out balloon sails, a small prize only would be expected, and this without much expense to either the committee of management or yacht owners. Great amusement might be afforded, and there would be an amount of uncertainty about it which would be a relief and pleasing contrast to the other races. At the same time might I call the attention of the committee to the classification of these, and indeed all yachts, upon which subject an excellent letter appeared in your paper some little time since, and upon which depends so much the success of the regatta! On the first day the larger " donkeys" might contend, and on the second the smaller ones; let the former class be between 35 or 40 and 20 tons, and the smaller from 20 downwards. Unless I mistake not, this used to be the old Thames classification, and at all events it is the nearest approach we can get to size them properly, and if we look at the report of the Irish Model Yacht Club of last week, it can be seen of how little avail it is for a yacht of from 7 to 12 tons to com- pete with a 24 tonner. Everything is always so well arranged by those admirable clubs at Kingstown that I make this suggestion with great diffidence ; but it has often struck me that with so nu- merous a fleet as one always sees in the harbour something more might be shown in the shape of sport, and that if a trifle was clipped from the large cups, and this trifle given as I propose, the owners of those magnificent craft would not begrudge that little, to be given to show sport and for their humbler brethren, and that the committee would not regret the " alteration," or if they can afford it, the " addition."— Yours, & c, JACK MUGGINS. Thistle Hall. P. S. Talking of classification, may I ask any of your yachting readers to look at the list of prizes offered by the Royal Mersey, and to tell me what encouragement there is to any vessel between 15 and 30 tons ( the most useful class of our yachts) to steer for the Mersey. WEST LONDON ROWING CLUB. The gig race of this club, appointed for Monday, June 22, was postponed sine die on account of insufficiency of entry, and in its place the csmmittee, wishing to encourage the junior members, have introduced a race among junior scullers who have never before contended. The entries will close on Saturday, June 27, the race to take place subject to the committee's arrangements. E. May will make another match with H. Stratford of Lambeth, for £ 25 a side, at Mr Willcox's, White Hart, Barnes, Surrey, on Wednesday evening, July 1, at eight o'clock. ROYAL ENGINEERS' REGATTA, ROCHESTER. On Thursday, June 18th, this city presented an unusually gay appearance, owing to the number of spectators, including civi- lians and military from the garrison at Chatham, all wending their way to Rochester Bridge to witness some boat racing be- tween the officers of the Royal Engineers, from the Royal Engi- neer establishment, Brompton Barracks. The programme an- nounced that the first race was to come off at two o'clock, at which time the banks of the Medway had become studded with spectators. The scene was very animated, and the scarlet uni- forms, intermingled with the rich colours of the ladies' dresses, gave a charm to the scene. The principal spot of attraction was the new esplanade, which extends from the new bridge, along by the side of the ancient castle, its walls and garden, to the baths, at which place the band of the Royal Engineers was stationed, under the leadership of the band- master, Mr Collins, and a very superior spread was provided in the bath saloon by the officers for themselves and friends, the caterer, Mr Sly, having done his best in producing every delicacy of the season. A pontoon raft was moored in the centre of the river, for the accommodation of Lieut- Colonel Lovell, C. B., who was chosen umpire, and Lieut Sale, R. E., the starter. A vessel named the Henry was appro- priated for the officers'dressing and undressing, the vessel being dressed with the English and Danish flags. There were several beautiful yachts, and pleasure craft innumerable, all gaily attired, with a multiplicity of pretty banners, and everything went off very well, the committee having made their arrangements with care and completeness. A RACK for pair- oared boats; three- quarters of a mile. Lieut A. W. Balrd, Lieut A. H. Hime, Lieut R. Scott ( cox) .. 1 Lieut G. W. Gittord, Lieut C. E. Prldden, Lieut D. O'Brien ( cox) 2 The boats were well started and excellently managed, and they kept well together until their near approach home, when Lieut Baird's put on a spurt, and won by about two boats' lengths. A PAIR- OARED RACE, IN HEATS. FIRST HEAT. Lieut Blood, Lieut M'Clure. Lieut Heneage ( cox) 1 Lieut J. Ramsay, Lieut A. W. Beauchamp, Lieut A. Beamish This race afforded much interest. On starting, Lieut M'Clure lost his oar just as the boat was under way, and the consequence was that about three strokes were lost in its recovery, but he and his partner made up the mishap by such excellent rowing, that they won by about five boats' lengths. SECOND HEAT. Lieut G. M. Larminle, Lieut R. T. Frere, Lieut R. Scott.( cox) 1 Lieut R. J. Parker, Lieut H. Champernowne, Lieut Ileneage ( cox) 2 Won easily. A RACE for four oars; one mile. SYLPH ( blue and white)— Lieut A. W. Baird, Lieut A. H. Hime, Lieut C. E. Pridden, Lieut C. M. Larminie, R. Scott ( cox) 1 FAIRY ( red)— Lieut 1?. J. Parker, Lieut B. Blood, Lieut Burton, Lieut R. J. M'Clure, Lieut A. W. Beamish ( cox). 2 GAZELLE ( blue)— Lieut J. H. Urquhart, Lieut F. H. Fawkes, Lieut H. Fawkes, Lieut L. F. Boileau, Lieut R. T. Frere, Lieut D. O'Brien ( cox) 3 FESTON ( red and white)— Lieut H. Champernowne. Lieut C. S. Beauchamp, Lieut Gifford, Lieut J. Ramsay, Lieut T. W. Watkins ( cox) 4 The Sylph lost at starting, but picked up about half- way down, when she took the lead, which she maintained all the way, and came home about half a boat's length ahead of the Fairy and Gazelle, who were close together. The friends of the Fairy, how- ever, urged on the rowers, and after a desperate pull for a few yards they came in about a foot ahead of Gazelle. A RACE between Non- Commissioned Officers and Sappers, in cutters; one mile. Sappers Lecome, Thomas, Burns, Silk, Spillane, Smith, M'Ray, Gardner, M'Intyre, Frskine, O'Roy ( cox) 1 Col- Sergts Ford, Fenton, Chapman, Sergts Johns, M'Nelly, White, Corps Olphert, Matherson, Ford, Cochran, Serg- Maj Jones ( cox) 2 This was a very fine match ; the betting was in favour of the Non- Co tnmissioned Officers, but, owingto theslcilful management of the coxswain of the Sappers' boat, they succeeded in outrowing their superior officers, amidst the cheers of their comrades, and passed the saluting flag about two boats' lengths ahead. A FOUR- OAR MILE RACE between the 37th and 40th Company Royal Engineers. 37TH COMPANY— Corp Olphert, Corp Cochrane, Sapper Spil- lane, Sapper Smith, Lieut L. F. Boileau ( cox) 1 40TH COMPANY— 8ergt Ford, Corp Ford, Sapper O'Roy, Sapper Jlmson, Capt Hltchins ( cox) 2 The crews of both boats pulled well, and came down with the tide at a rattling speed, the 37th beating the 40tli only by half a boat's length. Thus ended the sports, the weather forwhich was everything that could be desired. CHAMPIONSHIP OF THE THAMES. Owing to an intimation that Green, the defeated Asstralian of last week, was anxious to have another contest with his then op- ponent, Chambers, a number of persons assembled at Henry Kelley's, Putney, on Tuesday night, in expectation that prelimi- naries would be entered into accordingly. Kelley, who repre- sented Green, said that he was prepared to make another match for a similar amount with the last, to take place towards the end of August. Henry Salter, on the part of Chambers, demurred to this, and stated that, although he had authority to make a match, it was upon condit ion that it did not take place until October. Kelley expressed his surprise, urging that Chambers and his friends, previous to their departure for the North, had expressed their willingness for the match to come off in August, and he now felt surprised at the change, adding that Green wished to return to his native country in September. It was then understood that Salter would communicate w ith those whom he represented in the North, and declare the result on Tuesday evening next, at Kelley's. THAMES ROWING^ CLUBT On Saturday. June 20, the members of the above club contended for handsome silver cups, presented by the club. The race was rowed in pair- oared outrigged gigs, with the following result :— 3. Messrs C. W. Millar smd F. Hardie, A. Tisley ( cox) .. Blue 1 4. MessrsA. RichardsandE. Anderton, G. Pavtridge( cox) White 2 2. MessrsW. Partridge andA. Robertson. J. IIeritage( cox) Green 3 1. Messrs A. Beezley and E. O'Donoghue, G. A. Cook( cox) P. ed 4 Blue started off with the lead, followed closely by White and Green, Red starting badly. This order they maintained to Sim- mons's, where Blue increased their lead, and were never afterwards challenged. A good race ensued between Green and White for second place, each leading alternatelj', till nearing the Soap Works, when White, by a good spurt, took second place. Blue won easily by three lengths, Green was a length beliindWhite, and Red three lengths astern of Green. The entries for the next four- oared race were afterwards closed. This race, which was originally fixed for July 18, will be rowed a fortnight earlier, namely, on the 4th, in consequence of Barnes regatta being fixed for the 18th. The entries are as follows:— MR F. B. CATTY'S CREW. 1. S. E. Cocker 2. J. Kendall 3. H. Kelloway 4. F. B. Catty E. W. Dorrell ( cox) MR J. W. INGHAM'S CREW. 1. P. Steinman 2. A. Richards 3. J. Moore 4. J. W. Ingham W.

P. A. Sherlock ( cox). MR BOUCHER'S CREW. J. Gliddon. W. W. Boucher. R. Wilson. W. Newell ( cox). R. Wooster. G. Mainland. A. Powell. H. C. Hill E. W. Scott. The race was from Putney to Chiswick. The crews made as good a start as could possibly be witnessed, each of the 32 oars taking the water at the same moment, all rowing very steadily and keeping very level until off the Star and Garter, when Wil- son's crew, slightly the quickest, obtained a lead of half a length, Stinton and Paul being level, Smith dropping slightly behind, which positions were maintained until opposite the London Row- ing Ciub boat house, when Wilson increased his lead, and Paul headed Stinton by a length, Smith being close behind. Off Craven Cottage Stinton's crew attempted to pass inside' Wilson, thereby causing a foul. Paul instantly taking advantage of the same went into first place, which lead was gradually increased, being one length ahead of Wilson at the Soap Works, and two at Ham- mersmith Bridge; Stinton one length, and Smith three lengths behind. Opposite the North London boat house Stinton at- tempting to pass Wilson caused another foul, and was steered into the bank, in which position Smith's crew, who had been rowing a stern race well within themselves, passed Stinton, which respec- tive positions were kept to the winning post, Paul winning by about three lengths, Wilson hardly a length ahead of Smith, and Stinton some distance behind. LONDON AMATEUR ROWING CLUB, DOUBLE SCULLS — The members of this club also contributed their quota to the races at Putney on Saturday, June 20, the dis- tance being Putney to Hammersmith, and the result as under :— Messrs A. C. Marshall and T. W. Charles ( No. 3 station) .... 1 Messrs H. Jump and R. Clay ( No. 2 station) e Messrs G. Flaxman and H. Williams ( Surrey station) 0 Messrs J. Arkili and H. Needham ( Middlesex station) O Mr J. H. Lee, the deputy captain, was umpire in a club eight. The start was very evenly taken, Clay and partner having slightly the best of it. Charles and Marshall then collared them, and then Williams and Flaxman came to the " front, but did not hold the pride of place beyond the Star, where Charles and partner went in front, followed by Needham and Arkili, who obtained the lead just after passing the Dummy, Clay and Jump being second. Theyrowed in these positions, not a length separating all four, till about Simmons's, where Charles and Marshall again went in front, followed out by Needham and partner, and immediately after- wards, to avoid fouling the obnoxious barge, Charles pulled out, and both he and partner, Needham and Arkill, and Clay and Jump came into collision, during which Flaxman and Williams obtained the lead, and Needham and partner unfortunately break- ing a scull had to resign the contest. After they all came right again Charles and Marshall went ahead again, and had increased their lead to two lengths opposite Craven, where Clay and partner began ta collar them, and rowing in the most determined manner came level in crossing the water, and the race was most exciting till beyond the Soap Works ; here, however, Charles and partner, proving too strong for their opponents, rowed them down, and going ahead again won by two lengths, Clay and Jump being a long way ahead of Williams and Flaxman. CORSAIR ROWING CLUB? FOUR- OARED RACE.— Three crews of this club contended on Saturday, June 20, in a four- oared race, which proved a most ex- citing affair. It was accompanied by Citizen B, which had been chartered by the club, Mr F. Catty, captain of the Thames Club, being umpire. The distance was Putney to Hammersmith, and the result as under :— Mr Herron's Crew, Surrey station i Mr Kearns's Crew, centre station o Mr Ellinger's Crew, Middlesex station o MR HERRON'S. 1. J. Castell 2. 11. Moore 3. J. E. Brain 4. A. Herron W. Charman ( cox) MR ELLINGER'S. 1. C. J. Price 2. G. Drayson 3. N. Adams 4. J. Elllnger W. Kearns ( cox) MR KEARNS'S. 1. H. Kearns 2. C. W. Roney 3. — Corrie 4. J. Kearns A. Miller ( cox) Mr Roney, the Hon Sec, Ariel Rowing Club, kindly took the place of Mr Varty in Mr Kearns's crew. Mr Kearns got away with a trifling lead, which he maintained to about the Star, when Mr Herron's party drew up, and a capital ding- dong race ensued, Mr Ellinger being astern. The ebb having begun to make, Mr Kearns's coxswain took them well inta the slack, which gave them less to do than the other boat, and they raced stem and stem till near Craven. Here Mr Herron, putting on a fine spurt, his crew went away, and had cleared themselves at the Dung Wharf. Between here and the Crab Tree they improved their lead rapidly, Kearns's coxswain keeping his'crew in the centre of the stream instead of in the slack on the Surrey shore, and at the Boap Works Herron led by two lengths. Here a determined spurt on the part of Mr Kearns took his crew right up to the other's stern, but they fell away again, and Mr Herron landed his crew the winners by three lengths. The prizes were afterwards presented on the steamboat. ARIEL ROWING CLUB?" JUNIOR SCULLS.— The junior members of this club rowed a scullers race on Saturday, June 20, from Hammersmith to Putney, the following gentlemen contending, namely:— Surrey station Mr C. Fisher Centre station Mt F. Fisher Middlesex station Mr B. P. Seare After a false start they drifted down to the Distillery, and were then started afresh by Mr Hopton ( the captain) from the Corsair steamer. Seare was the last to get off', C. Fisher the first, aHd the latter improved his lead into nearly a clear length in two husdred or three hundred yards. F. Fisher then came up, passed his brother, and obtained a lead of half a length, but at the Soap Works Bridge C. Fisher resumed his lead; he soon had it wrested from him again, however, and thence the race which followed was most desperate; F. Fisher would lead by about a yard or two, and then his brother would get level with and sometimes pass him, to beyond the Crab Tree, it looking like any one's race. Meanwhile Seare had gradually fallen behind from the first, although rowing pluckily, and was tailed more and more, not rowing the distance. At the Crab Tree C. Fisher looked as though he was going once more in front, when he caught a crab with his left hand, which gave F. Fisher a good lead again. At the Dung Wharf his brother came nearly level, and at Craven he did the same, but towards the Point F. Fisher seemed to have the race pretty well within his hands; he con- tinued to lead and increase his advantage along the Bishop's Grounds, his brother spurting very pluckily ever and anon, till the London Boat House, where he came up close again, and remained so a few strokes, but at Simmons's Mr F. Fisher went away again, and won a most exciting race by two clear lengths. NAUTILUS ROWING CLUB. A Pair oared Gig Race with coxswains took place between members of this club on Wednesday, June 24, from Putney to Hammersmith. FIRST HEAT. Messrs W. T. Perkins, J. C. Doran, W. Shenton ( cox) ( Blue) 1 Messrs W. Goody, I). Richardson, J. Richardson ( cox) ( Red) 0 A capital race was rowed to the Point, where the winners began to draw away, and, increasing their lead as they proceeded, won by three lengths. SECOND HEAT. Messrs J. Thomas, J. Shenton, C. Dickens ( cox) ( Green).... 1 Messrs R. H. Becker, T. Brown, J. Radpath ( cox) ( Yellow).. 0 The winners went away at the first stroke, and came in six lengths ahead. FINAL HEAT. Messrs W. T. Perkins, J. C. Doran, W. Shenton ( cox) ( Blue) 1 Messrs J. Thomas, J. Shentou, C. Dickens ( cox) ( Green).... 0 It was a fine race to the Pier, when Messrs Thomas and Shenton fouled a barge, and lost an oar. On recovering from this disaster they started after their opponents, who were seven or eight lengths in advance, and were only a length to the bad at the finish. CAXTON ROWING CLUB. GIG PAIRS.— The members of this club of tradesmen rowed their seventh annual race in pair- oared gigs on Saturday, June 20, the following being the results :— Messrs H. Hall and W. Stotesbury, V. Hall ( cox), Middlesex station 1 Messrs J. Fuller and W. Hill, J. Hohnan ( cox), No. 3 station 2 Messrs II. Bates and J. Poulter, F. Cross ( cox;, Surrey station 2 Messrs H. Newton and W. Paul, G. Chapman ( cox), No. 4 station 4 Messrs C. Lefort and G. White, H. Lloyd ( cox). No. 2 station 5 The Rifleman, Captain Hudson, accompanied the race with a very large party on board, and the brass band from the firm of Messrs Stevens, Darlington Works, Southwark Bridge- road. The distance was Putney to Chiswick Ait, and the prizes were : First boat, silver cup, presented by Capt W. C. K. Clowes, and W. Clowes, jun, the others receiving gold rings and money prizes. Lefort and White took the lead, and there was a capital race with all to beyond the London Boat House, where the winners drew slightly away, and increasing their lead gradually won by two or three lengths. The others continued to race very closely to the Soap Works, where they fell into the above positions, all coming in tolerably close together. MAY AND STRATFORD, The scullers race between Edward May of Vauxhall and Henry Stratford of Lambeth, for £ 25 a side, came off on Monday, June 22, from Putney to Barnes, and proved a very exciting race, although unfortunately marred by a foul. May has been before the public some years, having rowed with fair success, and is a landsman of Vauxhall; he is now 30 years of age, stands oft llin, and weighs lOst 121b. He trained at Wilcox's, the White Hart, Barnes, in company with George Drewitt, and rowed in a boat built by Biffen, the same that Everson rowed Chambers in. Strat- ford, unlike his opponent, is a waterman, lately out of his time, and has the advantage of youth on his side, being only 24 years of age. He is a smaller built man, however, stands only 5ft 4in, and weighs 9st 61b. He has rowed several times before with tolerable success, trained at Salter's, the Feathers, Wands- worth, under W. Hemmings of Richmond, and rowed in one of Salter's boats. Citizen L, Captain Whanslow, had been engaged to accompany the match, and left London at two o'clock with a tolerably good freight. Betting on board was 6 and 7 to 4 in favour of May, as he was pronounced to be rowing better than ever, and had previously beaten his opponent. Mr Salter having been chosen umpire for Stratford, Mr Wilcox for May, and Mr F. J. Tyler of the West London Rowing Club referee, the men went to their stations shortly after five o'clock, May having won the toss, and accompanied by John Phelps as pilot, while Joe Leech attended to Stratford. The latter took the lead very rapidly, and was half his length ahead at the Star and Garter; at the Duke's Head led by three- quarters of his length, and had cleared himself at the London Boat House. At Bishop's Creek they maintained the same positions, May rowing very well in pursuit, and going up the Willows he put oil a spurt; this, how- ever, was answered by Stratford, who led by nearly half a clear length at the top of the Willows. At the Point, another spurt put on by May took him within a few feet of his antagonist, and continu- ing to row at the top of his speed, May drew right on his opponent's stern at Craven. A splendid race ensued, and crossing the water May overlapped his opponent, again andagain forafew seconds, and then fell behind again* Stratford being notoriously a good sticker. Opposite the Crab Tree Stratford got about a quarter of a clear length in front, and continued to lead by this to near the Soap Works, where May was dodging about his stern, and made three separate attempts to pass, the first outside, the second inside, and the third again outside. They were of course at this time in dan- gerous proximity ; and it was a very exciting moment for all, when Stratford of a sudden came out a little, and, easing for a second, came into collision with May's boat. Both stopped and claimed, and then May rowed on, passed under Hammersmith Bridge in lOmin 20sec, and finished in 25min osec, Stratford rowing leisurely behind him. The referee on being appealed to gave his decision in favour of Stratford, on the ground, we pre- sume, that he, being in his own water, was compelled to pull out at the Soap Works or be bored ashore. Stratford can have the money therefore on Thursday, June 25, at twelve. YACHTING IN FRANCE.— MARSEILLES REGATTA.— Marseilles Regatta took place on Sunday, J une 21. For the previous two days a N. N. W. wind had freshened more and snore, announcing the Mistral, which on themorningof the regatta blew with extreme Violence. Sunday broke with a very heavy sea on, and although the steam Government avisas, or despatch boats, Castor, Favori, and Rodeur, arrived on the previous evening, a telegraphic despatch was received from Toulon to the effect that the frigates Magicienne and Themis would not put to sea in consequence of the threatening aspect of the weather. The presence of this squadron would of course have given great eclat to the proceed- ings; in its absence the regatta was of a comparatively simple character, but it was carried out under very exceptional and trying circumstances. The day should have commenced with a match between the cutter yacht Amelia of Cannes, built at Antibes, and the schooner Queen of the Isles of Marseilles, belonging to M Dupont de la Thuillerie, formerly one of the fleet of the Royal Western Yacht Club of England, and built, we believe, by Jack- son, in 1857. Unfortunately the cutter sustained serious damage at the moment of getting under sail, and was placed in conse- quence hors de combat. At the hour appointed for the fulfilment of the programme the Mistral had redoubled its violence, and fears were entertained that it would be necessary to adjourn the regatta altogether. To the praise of the brave seamen of Mar- seilles it should be stated, however, that they were duly at their posts in the outer port of La Jolliette, courageously awaiting the signal for entering on matches which could not be other- wise than full of danger to them. The distance to be tra- versed was fixed, in anticipation of suitable weather, at eighteen miles. The competitors had to double a mark placed te the N. W., under the Niolan battery, and then to return with a good offing to a buoy between the Chateau d' If and the Pointe de Ratouneau, entering the harbour again by passing the lighthouse. Thirty competitors entered, but two of these, from Cannes, could not reach the harbour, and in the course of the morning several others laid by. The two first series only were able to carry out the programme, and of the seventeen boats which composed them, only five succeeded in completing the entire distance laid down. These arrived in the following order:— The Zephyr, M Craviot, 40ft long ( first series); the Phoceen, M Arghalier, 25ft long ( second series); the Rosita, M Roque, 25ft long ( second series); the Adeline, M Pellegrin, 30ft long ( first series); and the Temps, M Oulonne, 25ft lone ( second series). The two series were started at an interval of 10 minutes. In the first category a Catalan boat, the St Antoine, whieh was leading, was dismasted; and the Trident, M Olive, which had a very good position, abandoned the match, in order to lend its assistance to the St Antoine. The Zephyr had a man carried overboard by the sea, but he was happily rescued. In the second series the Temps also sustained some damage, but the Phoceen and Rosita escaped wholly without injury. The third series comprised boats which were quite unequal to cope with the tre- mendous sea on; it was represented, however, by three boats, which held on for some time with a boldness which made the lookers- on tremble. These were the Hazard, M Caire; the Hiron- delle, M Borelli; and the Amelia, M Marengo ; and it is satis- factory to find that the courage with which they exposed them- selves to danger was not followed by any casualty. The state of the sea rendered it impossible to carry out some rowing matches which had been arranged. It is stated that the Emperor Napoleon is about to visit Cherbourg, and in that case an imposing yachting display may be anticipated in that quarter. KING'S SCHOOL, WARWICK, REGATTA.— This affair came off upon the river Avon on Tuesday, June 23. The weather was everything that could be desired, and a great number of the inha- bitants from Warwick and Leamington assembled to witness it. The Rev J. Montague discharged the duties of judge very satisfac- torily, the Rev L. Addison acting as starter, and Mr Walley of Lancaster as umpire; the manager of the affair being Mr Homer, the new third master. The Rev H. Hill having distributed the prizes, and the boys having given three cheers for each of the masters, and three for the ladies, the company dispersed, very much gratified with their afternoon's amusement. The races were as under:— Pair- oared Race, for boys of the Lower School; prize, fishing rods: Woodhouse and Gilbert, Daniels ( cox) ( black and white) ; Strickland and Palmer, Strickland mi ( cox) ( blue); Cattell ma and Phillips, Cattell mi ( cox) ( pink). This race was won easily by Black and White, by ten lengths.— Pair- oared Race; prize, microscopes: Newsam and Daniels, Lee ( cox) ( scarlet and white); Ward mi and Davis, Palmer ( cox) ( scarlet); Ward ma and Fall, Strickland ( cox) ( blue). This was an exciting race, but the pluck of Scarlet and White, combined with their good coxswain, gave them the prize.— Upper School Race: Hill and T. Moore ma ( New.<= am) ( cox) ( scarlet); Leeds mi and Kemp, Lee ( cox) ( blue). This was won by Scarlet, who pu'led too strong for their weaker opponents, and won as they pleased. — Sculling Race: Leeds ma ( blue), D. Moore ( pink), Haynes ( scarlet). Leeds won this race with the utmost ease. His style of sculling was particularly good.— Pair- oared Race: Ward mi and A. Moore mi, Palmer ( cox) ( blue and white) ; Lee and Ward ma, Daniels ( cox) ( scarlet) ; Newsam and Stickland ma, Stick- land mi ( blue). This was decidedly the best- contested race of the day, but Blue and White beat their opponents by steady pulling. Upper School: Leads ma and Hill, Stickland mi ( cox) ( blue) ; Haynes and D. Moore, Newsam ( cox) ( scarlet). Blue got the best of the start, and kept their advantage to the end, although Scarlet rowed a good stern race.

They were level for 300 yards, when Pink stole in front, and at Chelsea College had cleared themselves. The other four, how- ever, rowed a desperate race for second place, and were nearly level the whole of the way to the Suspension Bridge, where Red began to fall out, but the others continued to pull stem and stem, Blue leading till off the King William the Fourth, when Yellow went into second place ; soon after this Red came up again, and they, Blue, and White had another severe race for the third prize, till off Nine Elms White became third, and got clear at Vauxhall Bridge. Pink, meanwhile, maintained the lead all the way, winning by three lengths ; Yellow were second by one length, White two lengths ahead of Blue, who were four lengths in front of Red.

It was a slashing fight, both men getting severe punishment, Davis drawing the first blood in the first round by a left- hander on Foley's jaw, and his right on the left lug, Foley returning the compliment with stinging force on the ribs and side of the nob; but Davis was decidedly the strongest. The men continued to rattle away at each other gamely for seven rounds, 27 minutes, when the police again interfered. A move was again made to a spot named by the referee. Davis made his appearance, but Foley, through mistaking the place named, did not put in an appearance, and the referee, after waiting some time, awarded the stakes to Davis. We understand that the men have put down a small sum to make a fresh match. TYLER AND STEWARD.— Mr Editor : In answer to Steward's advertisement to meet his backers at S.

The cempetitors thus left were reduced to two— Messrs M'Cullin and Aitkin, both of whom continued to swim in admirable style. Opposite to the Albert Warehouses, which was attained about one o'clock, Mr Aitkin became exhausted and was taken on board one of the boats, and M'Cullin continued on his career, passed the fiagboat, was declared the winner of the medal, and got out of the • water at 1: 35 p. m., having been an hour and forty minutes en- gaged in his ( arduous enterprise. TI - USEIS.— DEFEAT OF THE CHAMPION.— On Monday, June 22, a vast number of persons assembled at the Belvedere Racket Cou- t, Pentonville, with the hope of seeing the match between G _ ge Errwood and an " Unknown." The latter, liov/ ever, not ap" f! aring, Mr Edmund Bailey was selected to compete with the Champion. Betting : 5 to 1 on Errwood. Errwood succeeded in gaining the first game, but only by a single ace. In the second he was also successful, winning by 11 to 7. Bailey won the third by 11 to 7, and the fourth by 11 to 6. The fifth and deciding game was intensely interesting, from the close, determined, and scientific manner in which it was contested. After some beautiful play the parties were 7 all. Errwood then made 2; game 9 to 7. Bailey now scored an ace ; game 9 to 8. George cut him out, and made another ; game 10 to 8. Bailey then went in, and made 2 ; game 10 all. Several hands were then played without a single ace being scored. At length, to the amazement of all present, Bailey made the odd ace, and won the match, and consequently the Cup and Championship. BILLIARDS— Gentlemen who wish to learn or improve their game at billiards should get a few lessons from Mr W. White, the author of White on Billiards, at the New Opera Billiard- rooms, Bow street, Covent- garden. His system of teaching is exclusively his own, and based on principles that ensure success. Terms very moderate. " A correct knowledge of the game and a good method are indispensable to play well, the execution thereof very simple." PIGEON FLYING-— Mr Mann, of 5, Thornhill Bridge- place, Caledonian- road, Islington, will back a single pigeon against any three birds within ten miles of London, that is from five miles at the four points— east, west, north, and south— 10 miles the four points, 20 miles the four points, 50 miles the four points, and 150 miles, one bird against any other, for £ 50 a side. Bell's Life to be stakeholder. The match can be made at Mr Saunders's, Grey- hound, Webber- row, Waterloo- road. ANGLING.— ILLEGAL NETTING.— Thos. and Henry Dear of Old Brentford were convicted before the Richmond bench, on June 24, for illegally using a net between two arches at Richmond Bridge, on June 17, and for obstructing assistant- riverkeeper Howard, of the Thames Angling Preservation Society, in the exe- cution of his duty. They were fined £ 2 10s each, or 21 days' im- prisonment. CRICKETERS^ REGISTER. NOTICE TO SECRETARIES. No matches can be inserted unless sent by the secretary or some member authorised by the club, and those matches will be rejected which are not drawn up in proper form, or which are written on both sides of the paper. Much trouble is saved by tie use of F. Lillywhite's score sheet, which was so generally used last season, and which must not be confounded with the scoring paper used at a match. Matches not appearing imme- diately should not be sent again, they being only delayed for want of space. MARYLEBONE CLUB. JUNE 29, Lord's— Gentlemen v Players. JULY 2, Lord's— M. C.

OXFORD v CAMBRIDGE. JTJNE 22 AND 23.— In less than eight hours' play this, the 29th contest, was brought to a conclusion at Lord's Ground 011 Monday and Tuesday last, in favour of Oxford, making the Universities equal both by landand water. The ground was thronged, and com- pletely lined with carriages. The weather was somewhat threaten- ing, but fortunately that was all, and it kept tolerably fine. Great care had been bestowed upon the wickets, which seemed to play well. The Oxford Eleven were under the able management of Mr Mitchell, while Mr Plowden was captain for Cambridge. Mr Daubeney unfortunately was unable to play, owing to a sprain of the ancle, and Mr Scott, a left hand fast bowler— who was so suc- cessful against the M. C. C. the week before— was substituted. The betting was 0 to 4 on Oxford, although previous to Surrey's de- feat by fourteen of Cambridge at the Oval it was freely 6 to 4. We never saw at so early an hour so large an attendance on the ground, there being upwards of 2,000 before a ball was bowled. Young Nixon and Fennell stood umpires, while George Chatter- ton and the veteran Eoyston officiated with the pen. The two representatives of the Elevens having tossed, the Cambridge men were seen with " willow'' in hand, while Mr R. D. Walker was examining the leather. Messrs De Grey and Tuck came first, and six overs were bowled for four runs, three being got from Mr Teape. Oft' Mr Walker's fourth Mr De Grey made a drive for four, and the same in Mr Teape's next over. In the twentieth over bowled ( ten each) a master- piece of fielding took place; Mr Mitchell throwing from long- leg, and the ball being cleverly taken by Mr Haygarth, the wicket keeper. Tuck had to retire to the pavilion; thus first wicket fell for 17 runs. That excellent bat, Mr H. M. Marshall, was bowled the first ball, two for 17. Mr De Grey was caught at short- leg. The third fell for 19. Mr Daniel went the fourth, being bowled in the second over by the left- handed bowler, who had been substituted for Teape; this wicket went amidst immense cheering from the Oxonians; his figures were two threes ( drives from Teape and Walker) and three singles. Mr Collins was settled the very next ball delivered by Scott, thus the fifth went 32 runs. Betting 3 to 1 on Oxford. At this state of the game Messrs Booth and Lyttelton made a stay, and Voules was brought on at Walker's end, and Teape back again in the place of Soott, who had bowled six wides— three in his last over. Booth made three threes; two were good hits, a drive and a cut, from Teape and Walker. Mr Balfour was another first ball customer for the Oxonians, thus the sixth and seventh wicket fell for 54 runs. Mr Plowden joined Mr Lytteiton, and when the latter, by a fine display of the game, had increased the total to 63, the former had to succumb to Mr Teape— Mr Helme also ; and Mr Grant ( who was lame) to Mr Voules. These three wickets were obtained without the total being altered. Mr Lyttelton, who saw six wickets fall, brought out his bat for a finely played innings of 19. His figures were three threes ( leg, square leg, aud a drive), a two ( drive) and singles. The innings was concluded at two o'clock, and in one hour and a half, Oxford's first innings was declared 59 ! six less than their opponents; this was principally owing to Mr Plowden's straight slows. The fielding, we may add, on both sides, was brilliant, under the difficulties of an outside bumpy ground. The wicket keeping of both Messrs Lytteiton and Haygarth was quite first- rate. Oxford made a fair start. Mr Gamier quickly con- tributed 8, by a four ( drive from Colins), a three ( drive from Plowdenl; lie was caught in the slip, making the first wicket down for 17 runs. Mr Wright, an excellent bat, went for 0, and thus two wickets fell for 19 runs, for which also the third ( Mr Walker's) went, he scoring 10, by a four ( drive from Collins), a three ( drive from Plowden), & c. Mr Mitchell, the renowned Eton bat, amidst cheers, joined Mr Bull, and immediately commenced with a leg hit from Collins for two. The next over delivered to him, was a maiden, as was also Mr Plowden's to Mr Bull; in Collins's next, the equally great Harrow bat caught the Eton hero at long leg; it was a splendid catch, and we need scarcely acid that, as soon as it was landed, the applause was im- mense. The telegraph now announced four for 21, and then five for 22 ( Mr Bull's). Messrs Inge and Evans then got a hold, but Mr Plowden and the wicket- keeper stopped all further notices of runs to be scored— total, six for 43, and seven for 56. Mr Evans played a masterly innings of 25, in which he made three fours ( drive, leg- hit from Helme and Collins, and an overthrow), three threes ( two leg- hits and a drive), and singles. These two brought on Helme ( a fast left- handed bowler) at Collins's end. The re- mainder of the bats were disposed of for three additional runs. The innings was concluded at, half past four o'clock. Betting: Even, Oxford for choice. Cambridge sent in Messrs De Grey and Tuck, as before; the latter was soon " nailed," off Voules's second ball. Teape started the bowling, and gave De Grey a maiden; one wicket down for 0. Lyttleton was bowled in Voules's third over; two wickets tor 2 runs. This wicket fell amidst much cheering, as it is well known that this gentleman is what may be termed in rare good form this season. Another " great gun'' follows, and having scored a single, had to g © by express imme- diately to the pavilion, being bowled the same over, and thus the three bats were disposed of for 6 runs only! of which two were wides. Messrs Marshall. Collins, Booth, Balfour, and Plow- den were seen to walk away from the wickets by the Hon T. De Grey for the respective totals:— Four for 17, five for 22, six for 28, 7 for 36, and 8 for 45. Mr De Grey was given out leg b w, having played a masterly innings of 24, composed of a tour ( drive from Teape), a three ( drive from Bowies), five twos, and singles. His, the ninth, wicket fell for 48. Mr Helme soon troubled the scorers to the tune of II by three threes ( two drives and a square- leg hit) and a two, while Mr Grant made a good drive ( amidst cheers) from Teape for three. The innings closed at 6: 40 for a total of 61, or 68 to get to win. That evening one wicket was got for 3, that being Mr Garnier's, well known to be an excellent bat.. Mr ' Walker was his partner. The stumps were then drawn. Notwithstanding that the contest appeared a one- sided one, the interest manifested on Tuesday was proved by . the attendance of upwards of two thousand spectators before a ball was bowled. The day was a lovely one, very hot, and Mr Inge was seen to join Mr Walker to the bowling of Messrs Plowden and Grant. Walker was on the defence, while Inge let out. Helme was brought on at Grant's end, and in his third over succeeded in getting Walker caught, he having played a steady innings of eight singles, Inge getting the balance, amounting to 41. To win the match twenty- seven runs were now required, and Evans was called upon to join Inge, and these two gentlemen had the honour of finally settling the twenty- ninth contest between the two Universities. Mr Inge's innings was brilliant in the ex- treme. One ball, delivered by Plowden, he sent among the car- riages just below the pavilion. Thus Oxford was proclaimed the winner by eight wickets, the same number as Cambridge beat them by last year. The match terminated at twenty minutes past one o'clock.

SURREY v FOURTEEN OF CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY. JUNE 18, 19, 20.— This match, the finish of which we gave in our Latest Edition of last week, was won by the University gen- tlemen in ene innings and 95 runs. It will be seen that Messrs Hope- Grant and Plowden were the destructive bowlers. The ground was in splendid order. The Fourteen entered the field extremely strong, and they were the general favourites, notwith- standing that Surrey again won the choice of innings. Mortlock and Tom Humphrey opened the ball, to the bowling of Messrs Plowden and Grant. The former was caught at short leg, and the first wicket fell for 17 runs. Griffith, the second, went for 21, being caught at mid wicket. Humphrey followed, after a well- played innings of 17, being caught at point; his figures were a three, three twos, & c. Mr Dowson and Caflfyn caused the total to reach 63, when the former was run out. Caffyn was bowled oft his legs; the two noted players showed some excellent cricket, as did also Mr F. Burbidge, who always obtains his runs in cor- rect style; his 24 comprised two fours, two twos, and the rest singles. Mr Dowson's figures were a four, four threes, & c. Caffyn's a five ( drive from Collins), five twos, & c. Four fell for 63 runs; fifth, Lockyer's, for 70; sixth, Caffyn's, for 74 ; seventh, Ceasar's, for 81; eighth, Stephenson's, for 93 ; the ninth, Sewell's, for 109, and Mr Miller, the last ( with Mr Burbidge), increased it to 117. Time, a quarter past four. The bowling and fielding, especially the latter, were perfection; otherwise, owing to the splendid wickets, the County must have got a much larger innings. Of the University's innings we may safely say that a finer display of batting could not have been witnessed. The Hon C. G. Lyttelton's innings of three figures was a masterpiece of cricket, and we may say the s& ms of Mr de Grey's. Ine two in- 1 creased the score is to 182! and deH& i all'the bowlers, six in number. It was on the Saturday morning that Mr Lyttleton was got by Caffyn, after contributing 101, by four fours, eight threes, eleven twos, and singles. He was immensely cheered as he entered the Pavilion, and was immediately presented with a bat. Mr De Grey was also presented with a bat, in acknowledg- ment of his masterly innings. Mr Booth, too, obtained this honour for his not out innings of 51. The University won the match in a single innings, getting Surrey out for the small score of 99, Ccesar playing a fine innings of 33, and Mortlock, in good form for 15. Humphrey and Mr Miller also made a good 10 each, the latter bringing out his bat. The match was brought to a con- clusion at 1: 50 on the Saturday. Both Messrs Collins and Plow- den bowled admirably.

KENT v SURREY. JUNE 22.— This county match was commenced at Tonbridge Wells on Monday, on a piece of the common enclosed; it is a beautiful spot as regards scenery, and muoh improved since these two counties met some years ago. Surrey lost the toss this time, which turned out right, as Kent took the bat. The ground b,° u been watered, and was consequently heavy. Caftyn. « nd Sewell started, and well did they both bowl. Burton lost his wicket to Caffyn's second ball. Fryer went a few overs after; two wickets for one run. Willsher and Bennett got set, when the latter was easily missed at short- leg when he had scored 9 only; Sewell nailed Willsher off his own bowling, Goodhew was " cooked," and Ben- nett bowled by Caffyn. Mr Kelson played a merry innings for 12, when he was' splendidly caught by Griffith oft the first ball he bowled, and the rest were used up ® for a total of 93. Wenman ( not out) 10. After the ground had been seen to by the Surrey captain, Mortlock and, Humphrey showed at the wickets, and both were badly missed off Bennett, and therefore ran up the score to 26 before they were parted. Griffith made a bolt at a slow7, and received the reward of missing the same. Caffyn then came, and played a very fine hitting innings, making the large total of 70, being caught off a very fine drive at long- off by Bennett, who fielded beautifully. Caffyn succeeded in running out Mr Burbidge, and again tried it on with Mr Dowson and Lockyer. Mr Dowson . played well for his 16, and was caught off' a long hop. Lockyer got 15, and was bowled for having a pull at a short- un. The score was run up to 148 for seven wickets, which closed the day's play. TUESDAY, JUNE 23.— The two not outs ( Stephenson and Cffisar) took their places to the bowling of Bennett and Mr Norton, but as the ground had not had a bad night's rest the " telly'' was often shifted. Stephenson got his leg where his bat ought to have been, and had to retire to the question " How's that ?" for 13. Sewell joined " Julie," and both hit away like steam. Baker, who had relieved Mr Norton, got it very warm, Bennett, also, gave way to Willsher, who soon stopped the run- getting— i. e., at the pace they were going. At last, when 212 runs were scored, Caesar was bowled off his pad, by a ball well pitched up, for a well- earned 34. Mr Miller, the usual last of his side, now appeared, having been long looked for by Kent; but Sewell would not keep him company, being well caught by Fryer at short leg, off Willsher, who secured the firsi and last wicket of the Surrey side, and bowled well whenever put on. Baker's bowling was not quite so successful, and the wonder was why he wa3 kept on so long. The innings finished for 218, or 125 on. Many doubts were expressed whether the famed old county would rub off this little lot. Ground easy, and nothing particular in the Surrey bowling, yet it was not to be. Fryer and Mr W. 8. Norton came in first; the latter " laid an egg." Then Wenman came, but did not stop; Fryer was caught out beautifully by Mr Miller, with one hand, at mid wicket; and Bennett made a dead heat of it from the same hand; so said " Mr Umpire." WiUsher now got set, but Bennett had to leave, and the dinner bell rang ; four wickets down, 26 runs, or 99 to get yet. Goodhew came, but not for long. Mr Kelson was " cooked" by old Ben, arid WilUher caught bj' Mr Miller at cover point, so nine wickets fell for 51. including a very nice piece of cricket between Griffith and Mr Miller, whereby Burton was run out. Baker and Mr Davison ran the score up to 84, the latter gentleman playing a good innings, and carrying out his bat for 25, made up of one four and four threes, leaving Surrey victorious by 41 runs and one innings to spare. The ground was well attended both days, aud it was a great pity that the match terminated so soon.

The match was promoted by a committee of gentlemen in Bradford for the encouragement of county cricket, and from the performances of the respective sides was looked forward to with considerable interest. The strength of Nottingham in the cricket field is well known, and it was thought by many that if Yorkshire could make even a res- pectable match of it, it would add something to their credit. The ground had been most carefully prepared, and the wickets were perfection. The toss for innings was most anxiously watched, and it was won by Nottingham, who, it is needless to say, went in first. On referring to the score it will be seen that R. Daft was the highest scorer with 27, a remarkably careful innings; Parr, Smith, Tinley ( not out), C. Daft, and Wootton adding useful scores. The innings was remarkable for bad judgment in running, no less than four wickets being sacrificed in this way. Hodgson and Blinn commenced bowling for Yorkshire, and after several overs the former changed ends, and the latter ( who was not quite up to the mark) was relieved by Atkinson, and the two stayed through the innings, both bowling remarkably well. The innings closed about half- past five. The first re- presentatives of Yorkshire with the bat were John Berry and Thewlis. Berry, after an over or two, gave way to Jackson, and the rain then put a stop to the further progress of the match for that day. On Tuesday the match was punctually resumed, and the innings of Yorkshire amounted to 16 runs more than their opponents. Thewlis obtained the " Leger" by a fine innings of 46 ; Atkinson ( who is in capital batting this year) 25, Anderson 20, and Dawson 19, by very good play. The bowling lay princi- cipally with Jackson and Wootton, Grundy and Tinley assisting when occasion required The fielding on the part of Notts was not nearly so good as we have seen it, several chances being missed. The innings of Yorkshire concluded about half- past three. Notts in their second innings sent C. Daft and Tinley first to the wickets, and they made a very good stand, causing the bowling to be changed at Slinn's end. Tinley played well for 24, and pulled one of Hodgson's 011 his wicket. Smith followed, but did not stay. The two Dafts then got together, and although the bowling was well on the spot, and runs very slowly made, it was thought advisable to try the " slows." Iddison accordingly took the ball, and succeeded in lowering seven out of the eight remaining wickets in quick succession, thereby securing the new ball given to the bowler who obtained most wickets. His style of bowling appeared quite puzzling to the Notts Eleven, none of them, with the exception of R. Daft, having made anything of a stand after he came on. This innings concluded the day's play. On Wed- nesday Yorkshire commenced the task of obtaining the required number of 73 runs, which tteey accomplished with the loss of two wickets. Mr Waud played a very fine ( not out) innings of 34, and E. Stephenson ( not out) 22. Thewlis also contributed an excel- lent 16. We are glad to say that the three days were beautifully fine, and that there never before was so large an attendance on the Bradford Ground. The Notts Eleven were hospitably enter- tained each day, and their highest scorer was paid the compli- ment of having a new bat presented to him. Score: NOTTS. lst inn 2d inn J.

CRICKET AT CHARTERHOUSE SCHOOL. CHARTERHOUSE Y GRENADIER GUARDS. This match was played at Charterhouse 011 June 17, and ended in favour of the School by the first innings. The Guards went in first, but did not make many runs, except Capt Parnell, who put 22 very quickly together, and was splendidlj caught by Mr Haw- kins at long- leg off a fine hit. Messrs Boyle and Hawkins played well for the Charterhouse, and gained the victory for the first innings. Mr Trotter played well in the second innings of the Guards; the cheaf feature of the game was, however, " a hat'' ob- tained by Mr Ogden, who bowled well throughout the second innings in place of Mr Mackenzie, who was hurt.

JUNE 20.— Tyeeb Kateer! quoth our Egyptian friend on the morning of the 19th, when the beardless B d dropped in upon his slumbers to inform him that the Quid match next day must be postponed sine die, as although 24 Quids had promised, only six could be relied upon, and thus shorn of his strength the Quidnunc Samson despaired of victory. Never say " die," re- marked. the Phizinx. To Speke and Grant it has been allotted by fate to discover th9 true source of the Nile; but it would puzzle even greater adventurers than them to find out the true sauce of the Quid, permeating as it does in these degenerate days into Etceteras, Perfect Cures, Eottom Uppermosts, and Perambu- lators. Howsumdever our Phizinx roused hisself, and at once decapitaining the shorn one, got together his mystic ten. A full report of the cricket is perhaps not needed, at all events, it won't be given. We will only mention the Quidnunc F. Lea, who was very lively, and his admirers will be glad to hear that " The Returned" has commenced run getting; his first and only run was of colossal height, and it was only the Vyse inan of the East that could catch him. Owing to the admirable letter that ap- peared in last week's Bell, headed " One Day's Match," or rather to the judicous stops which the P. D. shook like pepper out of a box over it, regardless of the sense, it is impossible to say for certain whether the Quids lost or not. There was certainly no " prior stipulation,'' and wedidn't " Bet," and where is the Quid who ever played; according to " Rules?'' though nobody has a greater regard than ourselves for the hon sec of the M.

SOUTHDOWN CLUB v PARALYTICS. On Saturday, June 20, six wretched individuals, the shattered wreck of a once- promising Eleven, made their appearance on the beautiful ground of the Southdown Ciub at Glynde, and were in- stantly christened by local wit " the Paralytics." By the kind- ness of their adversaries, professional aid was allowed to these afflicted creatures, and four nurses from the neighbourhood volun- teered to look after the unfortunates. Dr Wale's prescriptions were most effectual, and enabled the Paralytics to enjoy a very pleasant day's cricket. We only hope that they may not suffer by any reaction. Score: SOUTHDOWN. G.

Mr Newton exhibited some first- class batting ; but the bowling and fielding were too good for the others. Hutchinson, the long- stop, did his duty well; he is only 13, and had to stop against very fast, bowling. Mr Osborn's underhand was very de- structive.

This match was played at the Oval on Thursday, June 25. Kugby won the toss, and sent in Messrs Case and Cotton to the bowling of Harbord and Taylor, Rugby scoring 87 in the first innings, the ground, owing to the recent storm, playing rather slow. The Marlburians' turn now came to wield the willow, and the excitement was intense as the innings progressed, but they were all disposed of for 86 runs. In the second innings of Rugby Mr Case scored 62 in fine style, for which he was presented with a bat by the hon secretary of the Surrey Club. Messrs Murray, Cotton, and Lloyd also played well, and the second innings closed for 161, leaving Marlborough 163 to get to win, which they failed to obtain. No one seemed to make any stand against the bowling of Venables and Murray, and when the last wicket fell only 79 runs had been scored, Kugby proving victorious by 82 runs.

HENLEY- ON- THAMES ROYAL REGATTA. This regatta took place on Thursday and Friday, June 25 and 28, and was perhaps the most brilliant that has ever taken place since its first establishment in 1839. A heavy storm the evening before had induced many to believe that the weather would be bad, but although it was somewhat gloomy in the morning, it cleared off" and was a glorious day, a fit day for such racing as took place. The Grand Stand wasas usual full, and amongstthe company present we noticed:— The Mayor of Henley, the Right Hon Lord Camoys, the Right Hon the Earl of Macclesfield, the Hon Spencer Montagu and family, the Hon T. Stonor, Gen Sir W. R. Clayton, Bart; W. P. W. Freeman, C. R. Scott Murray, C. Lane and family, W. H. Vanderstegen, J. W. Newell Birch, Hugh Poyntz Malet and family, W. H. Stone, R. Palmer, A.

In previous races we have forgotten to say that the wind blew slightly off the Bucks shore, which made the latter station much better than usual. The Kingston Rowing Club went away with the lead, although it was only a slight one, and maintained an advantage of about a couple of yards up to Remen- ham, where the other crews, who had up to this time been dead level, closed with them. Immediately afterwards Brasenose spurting vigorously came ahead, Kingston dropping astern, and a fine struggle occurred between the leading crews, Brasenose gra- dually drawing away. At Remenham Lodge, Brasenose put on a tremendous spurt and went half a length clear. . Meanwhile Kingston had gradually tailed off till Trinity Hall was nearly clear of them at the Poplars, but here the Kingston men spurted most determinedly, and drew upon their opponents' quarter inch by inch. Each stroke put it on to the uttermost to avoid being last, and Trinity Hall rowed allthey knew, butKingston still gained on them and rowed the last two hundred yards so well that the nose of their boat was level with No. 2 in Trinity Hall at the finish, Brasenose going in the winners by half a clear length. The time was 7min 26sec, which has never been beaten and only tied once, when the London Rowing Club did it some years ago. SECOND TRIAL HEAT.

Law 10 0 Trinity Hall took the lead at good pace, followed by Eton, Radley last, and in these positions they remained about 300 yards, the pace being enormous, and the scholars exerting themselves to the uttermost to pass their elder brethren. Just before Remen- ham, Trinity Hall led by half a length, when Eton put on a tre- mendous spurt and drew level, and then followed a glorious race till about the middle of the course, when, amidst deafening cheers from their partisans along the banks, the nose of the Eton boat began to show in front, and inch by inch, despite Cambridge's spirited rowing, the Light Blues came away till they were nearly clear. Radley, meanwhile, who, like Eton, had not been over the water previous to the race, pulled in pretty form, but extra weight overcame them. In 200 yards they were already two or three lengths astern; a fine spurt brought them nearly on Trinity Hall's stern at the time Eton left them, but they were compelled to give way immediately afterwards, and were never afterwards in the race. Eton, we have said, had nearly cleared themselves; this oc- curred about Remenham Lodge, and they held their advantage till Poplar Point, where Trinity Hall, putting on the steam, came half up them, and looked as though their superior weight and practice over the course would carry them through, but the Eto- nians would not be denied. Urged on by the shrieks of those on the bank, Mr Griffiths put on one of the most brilliant spurts ever seen. They left Cambridge behind foot by foot, and rowed in a clear length and a half ahead. The steerage right through was beautiful, and aided the crew very much in their brilliant victory. Time, 7min 27sec. SECOND TRIAL HEAT.

Mr Bloxam, in the London boat, had been unfortunately taken ill in the morning, and Mr Hale, the extra hand appointed, not having arrived in time, Mr Bchlotel had to take his place. London went in front at the start, but were soon passed by both the others, Uni- versity leading by a foot or two; then Brasenose went slightly in front, and held a lead till Remenham, London, tailing till they were nearly a length behind University. Between here and Remenham Lodge University made a rush to the front, and, rowing with great spirit, passed the Brasenose crew man after man, took their water, and were a length and a half clear at Poplar Point. Meanwhile at Remenham Lodge, London challenging Brasenese, gradually went a quarter of their length in front, but were becoming exhausted, and young Mr Weston steering them badly, they fell off again, and came in half a clear length behind Brasenose, University winning by two lengths.

In this manner they continued round the Point, the rowing being very severe, till University put on a spurt when close to home, but could not get away, Eton's nose being level with Mr Forster in the University boat.

THE ESSEX HORSE SHOW AT WITHAM- First Trinity had also entered, butwitiidrew, finding it hopeless to start against such superior mettle. The fact of the Old Black Prince being in the back ground, after fifteen years' appearance at There was a deal to do down the Great Eastern line last week, with Chelmsford Races on Tuesday and Wednesday, followed by Ipswich on Thursday and Friday, and the meeting of the Essex Agricultural Association, at Witham, also fixed for the Thursday. The horse show here depends of course upon two different sec- tions, the nags and the carters. The latter, with the exception of two or three fillies of Mr Warde's breeding, were not remarkable for much excellence, whilst a number of the entries were put out of competition from unsoundness, the awards in the aged stallion class being altogether upset from this cause. There is little wonder either that it should be so, when we look to the grossly loaded tops of the chesnut Suffolks, and, though their legs may not go, disease is found to settle in their feet, the chief complaint o? the veterinary inspector at Witham. A very useful official this in his place, and when only duly instructed by the stewards that it is no part of his duty to obtrude his opinion upon the judges as to the decisions they may arrive at, unless his aid in this way is directly requested. It was certainly not needed amongst the hacks and hunters, where, however, his professional knowledge went to disqualify the two best hunting mares, a clever tried good one from Ingatestone, and another fine stamp of mare but with infirm hocks, bred by the late Sir Tatton Sykes, and exhibited by Mr Foster Osborne; while Sir Thomas Lennard's Olinska would have been " the next best," but the pre- mium was eventually withheld. In the companion class of hunting geldings Mr Papillon, one of the members for Colches- ter, claimed first with a grand stylish old bay that only went off a little stiff at starting from just a suspicion of a spavin; and Mi- Barker was commended for an old- fashioned weight- carrying Irish horse, entered as having been hunted regularly at 17st up with foxhounds and staghounds, but not looking like ever being able to live the pace with the latter. Mr Barker, who sent a whole troop of horse to Witham, was more fortunate in the other two match lots of hack mares and geldings, for either of which he finished first. The mare, another im- portation from Ireland, is of a very wearing, useful sort; and the prize hackney gelding, a smart steeple chase horse called Bankrupt, manifestly out of his class, but too clever to pass over, though the judges appended a note to such effect on giving in their award. The second prize hackney mare was a very neat compact little chesnut, by The Don, and the property of Mr G. C. Rolfe ; and another neatish chesnut, sent by Mr Rowland Tayler from Colchester, was commended. It seems strange, that no second premium should be allowed for hackney geldings as well as for hackney mares; had such been the case this would have gone very honestly to Mr Peter Portway's low, lengthy, and level one, a hackney all over that was hardly in fair competition with the steeple chaser. As it was, the judges could do no more than highly commend the Sampford sample, as they also com- mended simply a three year old of Mr Cooper's, very distinguish- able for his good showy action. The riding horses or hacks did not end even here, as the pony class was associated with no condition whatever as to height, and as a consequence the ponies proper were pushed oat of their places by something of more weight and inches. There were no less than 27 entries, but they were a most incongruous company of all sorts, and the weed- ing out was very easily proceeded with, although the judges divided at last over the actual award of the prizes. The first premium was voted unanimously enough to a good- looking sub- stantial cob mare, the property of Mr Lambert, of Rainham ; but for second, one judge took to a weight- carrying useful grey cob, which that famous agriculturist, Mr Fisher Hobbs, has been riding about his farm; and the other to a wiry, wicked little chesnut of Mr Barker's, a mare with a sweet head, magnificent shoulders, and beautiful true action, though unfortunately rather over- worked. In this dilemma, Mr Spooner, one of the authorities over the cart horses, was called in, and after what he had been studying, naturally decided by avoir- dupois weight, though he owned to the superior style and moving of the other. Of course Mr Barker's mare was highly commended, as was a galloway of Mr Justice's. The hackney stallions were another odd mixture, led off by the cock- tail Horatio, quite the model of a hunter in his own proper per- son, but lacking anything like that purity of pedigree so neces- sary to go on with. As a consequence, he was only commended for'his good looks when quite out of his place, and the premium awarded to Mr Hamblin's Young Prickwillow, a trotting horse with remarkably fine action, but disfigured by a plain head, badly- set into an indifferent neck. Still this colt is quite a child, and with time may so improve and furnish as to lessen the unprepos- sessing effect of his sorrowful countenance, whilehis going must al- ways do much to counteract anything else that in the way of ap- pearances would tell against him :— " If to his share some trifling errors fall, Put him in a trot and you'll forget ' em all." There was no such excuse necessary for the best thorough bred stallion, Sir John Barleycorn, fine, though, as his action is, won- derful his liberty, and grand his style when upon parade. He looked, moreover, a very different horse to the dull- coated half- done animal they sent up to Battersea from Bawcliffe, where Mainstone now has his box, Sir Thomas Lennard having hired Sir John of Mr Hussey. Not a bad bargain, either, on any showing, as at Witham they took no less than £ 40 with the old horse in public money:— a premium of £ 15 as the best thorough bred horse standing or travelling in the eounty, and the open to England premium of £ 25. His only competitor for either was Dr San- grado, a frequent winner in his time at meetings of this kind, and still wearing wonderfully well at twenty- two years old, though never of quite stamp enough to compete with the other. The Doctor, who was deservedly commended, is now in the possession of Mr Henry Westropp, of Mel- ford, near Sudbury. Of the brood mares, far away the choice was Mr Disney's Jezabel, an active lengthy bay, with a deal of nice character about her, but minus an eye; and the best foal, highly commended as such, a son of Mainstone, out of an im- mense mare of Mr Seabrook's, that received no notice on her own account, the second prize for brood mares going to a blood- like chesnut, by Revenge, light and leggy, and selected m » e for her good breeding than anything else. She comes from Mr Manfred Biddell's stud, who put her last season to one of his Suffolk stallions! and sent her into Essex with the consequences at her side, a foal that so far fortunately takes more after the mare than the horse. Strangely enough, two of the very best entries of the riding horse classes were found among the extra stock. These were a capital Welsh pony of Mr Oxley Parker's, that went as well as she looked, and a good hunting gelding, the name of whose owner was not given. Both were highly commended, as both no doubt would have received some more substantial com- pliment from the judges, had they been only entered in their several classes. The gentlemen who again undertook the respon- sibility of meting out the due award of merit in this section of the show were Mr H. Thurnall of Royston and Mr H. Corbet of the Central Farmers' Club. The day turned out delightfully fine, the attendance was very large, and the proceedings wound up with a row royal at the dinner, where the amenities of that holy father, the Bishop of Rochester, were discussed with considerable warmth by that tabooed race in his reverence's eyes— the agriculturists of Essex, The Sparkenhoe Club is about to introduce a new plan of trying the hunter classes. As Nuneaton, the place of the next meeting, is the centre of a good hunting country, the committee will reserve a large flat turf space on the show ground for the trial of hunters in fencing and galloping. Hurdles will be placed at cer- tain distancesfoj the horses to jump, and as the contemplated site is at the foot of a gently rising hill, thousands of visitors will have an opportunity of witnessing what might not inaptly be termed a miniature steeple chase. After the horses have been put through this trial by the judges, and the premiums awarded, the stewards will, at certain intervals, have the horses shown to the visitors. Although this is " new" at Sparkenhoe, we have seen the pumping business in practice at other places— not always with decided success. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS. MONDAY-— Lord DE GEEY and RIPON moved the second reading of the Volunteers' Bill, and briefly explained its pro- visions.— The Duke of RICHMOND objected to the 35th clause of the bill, which gave the extraordinary power to lord- lieutenants of allowing a l- itie range to be carried through any person's land without the permission of the proprietor.— Lord Hardinge, Lord Melville, and Lord Truro made a few remarks.— The bill was then read a second time. TUESDAY .— DEATH IN THE WORKROOM.— Lord SHAFTESBURY drew the attention of the house to the recent me- lancholy death of Miss Walkley, the seamstress, caused by over- work and unfit sleeping apartments. He asked whether the Go- vernment were prepared to introduce a measure for the ventilation and sanitary regulation of the workrooms in which seamstresses were employed.— Lord GHANVILLE was not prepared to state that the Government intended to introduce any bill on the subject, but if Lord Shaftesbury himself would bring in a bill, it would meet with full consideration. THURSDAY-— VOLUNTEERS' BILL.— This bill passed through committee after clauses 35 and 36, relating to the com- pulsory acquisition of land for ranges, had been struck out. FRIDAY-— THE AMERICAN PRIZE COURT.— Earl RUS- SELL, in reply to the Marquis of Clanricarde, said he had yes- terday received a report from the American Prize Court, from which it appeared that it had adopted the principles laid down by Lord Stowell and Sir W. Grant; but whether they had been properly applied to the case of the Dolphin he could not at pre- sent say. He had not received any communication from the Em peror of the French relative to the recognition of the Southern States.— Adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS. MONDAY-— POLAND.— Lord PALMEKSTON thought it woul be satisfactory to the house to know the substance of the propo- sitions sent to St Petersburg, and there could be no impropriety in stating the substance of the recommendations which Her Ma- jesty's Government, in concert with France and Austria, had sent to the court of Russia. These were, first, that there should be a general and complete amnesty; second, a national representation for Poland, on the principle of the engagement made by Alex- ander I. in 1815 ; third, that Poles alone should be appointed to public offices, and a Polish administration; fourth, full liberty of conscience; fifth, that the Polish language should be used in all public transactions; sixth, that there should be a regular system of recruiting. In addition to these propositions, Her Majesty's Government had recommended that there should be a cessa- tion of hostilities. He trusted that, when the Government were able to lay the papers upon the table, the house would be of opi- nion that they had done all in their power. TUESDAY— LANDLORD AND TENANT ( IRELAND).— Mr MAGUIKE moved an address to Her Majesty, praying that she will be pleased to issue a royal commission to inquire into and report upon the state of the agricultural classes of Ireland, and to suggest such improvement in the relations between landlord and tenant as may seem necessary and expedient. The question, he observed, affected not only the peace, the happiness, and the pros- perity of Ireland, but the material interests of the whole empire, and it did not involve political or party topics, or anything that should excite angry controversy. What was the cause of the misery of Ireland ? Unlike England, Ireland was essentially an agricultural country, and he believed that the real cause of its condition was the state of the tenure of land, the relations be- tween landlord and tenant. The state of tilings called as loudly for legislation now as in 1860.— Sir R. PEEL contended that Mr Maguire had given no sufficient reasons for adopting his motion. He had attributed the condition of Ireland to the tenure of land ; but he had thereby raised an issue which he was unable to prove, and the object he had in view in the motion would disturb the existing relations between the owners and occupiers of land. He agreed that there was a vast amount of distress in Ireland, and that the relations between landlord and tenant were not such as could be wished ; but Mr Maguire, he thought, had not adopted a course calculated to promote the interests of those he desired to serve, and, in the name of the Government, he was bound to resist the motion.— THE O'DONOGHUE charged the Government with governing Ireland for the benefit of the landlord class, treating the tenantry as if they had no claim whatever on the land, and he maintained that the poverty of the cultivators was the result of the exorbitant rents exacted by the landlords.— Lord PAL- MEKSTON, bearing testimony to the general tone of moderation which had prevailed in the debate, complained of certain remarks which had fallen from The O'Donoghue. With reference to the motion, he asked how a Government could increase the prosperity of a country. By removing obstructions and securing life and property the Government had done all that could be done to effect those objects. If the moral condition of a people was a test of the character of the Government, Her Majesty's Government might take pride in the condition of Ireland. He protested against communistic views, disguised under the term of tenant right. In his opinion owners and tenants ought to settle their own affairs themselves, and they were now at full liberty to do so. In the Act of 1860 the Government had gone as far as it was proper to go, consistently with the principles of justice. They refused to adopt that tenant right, which would transfer property from the owner to the occupier as a joint or, in some cases, sole owner. — After some observations by Colonel GBEVILLE, and a reply by Mr MAGUIBE, the house divided, when the motion was negatived by 128 to 49. WEDNESDAY— ADMIRALTY BOARD.— The adjourned de- bate on the motion of Mr DALGLISH, for the appointment of a select committee to inquire into the constitution of the Board of Admiralty and the departments under its control, was resumed, and after much discussion the motion was withdrawn on the un- derstanding that it should be renewed early next session. THURSDAY— ARMY EXPENDITURE.— General PEEL called attention to the account recently presented to Parliament " of the receipt and expenditure for Army and Militia services for the year ended the 31st of March, 1862." He entered into details to show that a large excess of expenditure had taken place on the vote referred to, and what he considered to be a total want of control 011 the part of the house over the expenditure of the country.— Mr T. G. BASING, in reply to General Peel, gave detailed explanations upon the different points relating to the estimates of 1861- 62. He observed that there was no mystification in the matter. He stated the causes of excess in certain items, which had been properly paid out of the vote of credit for China, and that the transactions were brought to the notice of the house in the Appropriation Act.— After some explanations by the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, the house went into Committee of Supply, when the Irish Education Estimate was agreed to. FRIDAY. — RECOGNITION OF THE CONFEDERATE STATES.— Mr ROEBUCK, in reply to The O'Donoghue, said he certainly should bring on his motion for the recognition of the Southern States on Tuesday, and he was astonished that it should be doubted [ laughter]. MILITARY AND NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. REVIEW AT WOOLWICH.— On Monday last the troops in garrison at Woolwich were reviewed by the Prince of Wales, Prince Arthur, and the Duke of Cambridge. The guard of honour was supplied by 100 men of the Royal Engineers, in command of Captain Decie. The troops, numbering over 4,000 men, were drawn up in two lines, stretching from north to south throughout the common. The front line consisted of four batteries of the Horse Brigade, four batteries of 40- pounder heavy guns, and one battery of the 9th brigade. The rear line contained two batteries of the depot Royal Artillery; the gentlemen cadets of the academy, 249 in number; 500 dismounted gunners of the Artillery; three battalions of Royal Marines, numbering 1,000 men; 200 men of the lst battalion 60th Rifles; the 4th battalion Military Train ; and one battalion belonging te the depot Royal Artillery. After inspection a sham fight took place, which lasted about two hours. REVIEW AT CHATHAM.— The troops composing the garrison at Chatham were engaged on Tuesday afternoon on some extensive military operations, the plan and details of which were arranged by Major- General Eyre. The operations supposed the presence of a large attacking force in the neighbourhood of the garrison, an attack on which was imminent, the enemy having concentrated himself within a short distance of the river Medway. General Eyre commanded the forces. General Lord Clyde, G. C. B., was present, and remained on the ground witnessing the whole ef the evolutions and movements. The troops were under arms upwards of four hours, and at the conclusion of the proceedings were highly praised for the skill and activity with which they had carried out the varied movements and combinations. DEATH OF A DISTINGUISHED NAVAL OFFICER.— We have to record the death of Robert Scott, Esq, Paymaster, Royal Navy, which occurred at his residence at Devonport last week. The gallant deceased, who had reached the advanced age of eighty years, served as midshipman of the Audacious in the action off Algesiras in 1801, and was purser of the Cornwallis, and officially mentioned for his valuable services at the capture of Amboyna. He served also in the last named ship at the taking of the islands of France and Java in 1810. The deceased veteran officer, who had been rewarded with a medal and two clasps, obtained the rank of paymaster in 1806. After a protracted illness, Admiral the Hon Sir George Elliot, K. C. B., died on Wednesday morning, J une 24, at his residence at Prince's- terrace, Kensington. The gallant officer entered the navy in 1794, as a first- class volunteer, on board the St George, 93, bear- ing the flag of Admiral Sir Hyde Parker, and was present in Lord Hotham's actions in March and July, 1795, and was on board the Goliah when that ship led the British fleet into action, on the lst of August, 1798. For some time he was on board the San Josef and the St George, flagships of Lord Nelson and Sir Charles M. Pole, in the latter of which, under the gallant Captain Masterman Hardy, he was present at the action off Copenhagen in April, 1801. After various services afloat he, in October, 1808, captured La Jena, French corvette, of 18 guns and 150 men, after a run- ning action of nearly an hour. He also, when in command of the Aurora, in an action of three hours with some Spanish gunboats near Tarifa, captured three of the enemy's ships. At the reduc- tion of Java he was recommended to the notice of the Admiralty for the ability he displayed in superintending the landing of the troops. His commissions bore date as follows :— Lieutenant, 12th August, 1800 ; commander, 14th April, 1802 ; captain, 2d January, 1804 ; rear- admiral, 10th January, 1837 ; vice- admiral, I3th May, 1847; and admiral, 5th May, 1853. CITY INTELLIGENCE. MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL NEWS- Monetary affairs during the week have undergone little change. An active inquiry has been experienced in financial circles, and the minimum rate of the Bank of England, viz, 4 per cent, has been generally enforced for the negociation of mercantile securi- ties. A very satisfactory feeling has been, nevertheless, exhibited, as it is presumed that the increased demand has been occasioned by preparations for the impending settlement in foreign stocks and railway shares. Gold is not now required in such large quantities for exportation to the Continent, and the arrivals from Australia and America, in the absence of foreign orders, have been sent into the Bank's coffers. The Gazette return for the week ending Wednesday last testifies to the favourable position which that es- tablishment occupies in this respect. The bullion and the reserve of notes have been largely augmented, while the other securities, representing the discount business of the authorities, show no ma- terial increment. Less speculation than heretofore is now in- dulged in at the Stock Exchange, and serious reductions have taken place in most of the foreign descriptions, caused, perhaps, in a great measure, through heavy sales. The English depart- ment has also been much depressed by the incertitude felt regard- ing the condition of Poland, and the issue to which the present struggle for independence may lead. Consols closed this ( Friday) evening at 91f 92 for money, and 92 J for the account. During the week less activity has prevailed in the market for Foreign Securities, and prices generally have shown a downward movement. Greek Bonds have receded about If per cent, and the Coupons 1 to lj percent. Spanish Passive Bonds have declined f, Mexican Stock Old Turkish Six per Cents J, the Loan of 1858 j to f, the Loan of 1862 f, and the Consolides f per cent. The dealings in the Railway Share Market during the week continued very limited, and prices in most instances sympathised with the downward movement in the English and foreign funds. Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares were in fair request, but in some instances at slightly reduced quotations. SATURDAY EVENING. A firmer tone prevailed to- day in the English Stock Market, Consols having closed at 92 to 92J, and for the account at 92J In the Foreign Market Greek Bonds advanced 1J per cent, viz, to 36 j I, and Turkish Consolides rose to oOf f. Railway shares generally were a shade higher. Bonds and Miscllaneous Shares were without material variation- SUDDEN DEATH OF SIR JOSHUA JEBB, K. C. B.— This melan- choly event occurred on Friday morning, June 26. It appears that Sir Joshua was going with a friend from his residence, The Elms, Parson's- green, Fulham, to his offices in Parliament- street, on the outside of oneof the Fulham omnibuses, and when they had reached the Haymarket, Sir Joshua complained of being unwell, and soon after fell backwards and became insensible. He was immediately raised by the outside passengers, lifted down, and conducted to Mr Starkie's, the chemist's, where, in a very few minutes, he breathed his last. Sir Joshua Jebb was born in 1793. LATEST INTELLIGENCE. BELL'S LIFE OFFICE, Saturday Night, 12 o'Clock. AMERICA- INVASION OF THE NORTH. NEW YORK, JUNE 17. The interest of the war news has suddenly changed from Vicks* burg and Port Hudson to the Confederate invasion of the North. On Sunday the 1,4th inst non- official information reached this city from Washington that the army of General Lee, numbering nearly 100,600 men, had crossed the Rappahannock in three divi- sions, and was marching northwards towards the Shenandoah Valley. It was added that General Hooker had struck his camp, and was hastening, with his whole army, to intercept General Lee's advance. Telegraphic despatches from Washington on Monday confirmed this news, and stated that the Confederate advance cavalry, under General Stuart, 10,000 or 20,000 strong, had crossed the Potomac at Nolan's Ferry or Ford, and occupied Hagerstown, in Maryland. General Milroy, commanding at Winchester, Virginia, thought to dispute the progress of General Lee's main body, but, finding himself surrounded, made a bold dasb, cut his way through the Confederates, and escaped to Harper's Ferry, with the loss o£ 2,000 men. The Federal force at Martinsburg also retreated to Harper's Ferry, while General Reynolds was driven from Burry- ville to Bunker's Hill. On Tuesday the capture of Chamber"' - qj and Greencastle, in Pennsylvania, on the previous evening, reported from Harrisburg; the Confederates thus menaced the cities of Washington, Baltimore, and Philadelphia. The President immediately issued a proclamation, calling upon Maryland to furnish 10,000, Pennsylvania 50,000, Ohio 30,000, and West Virginia 10,000 men, to repel the invaders. The men who rally to this call are to serve without bounty for a term not ex- ceeding six months, and will be accredited to the several States on the account of the draught that is to be made for three years* men. Governors Curtin and Tod also issued proclamations exhorting the people to respond promptly to the President's call. The Go- vernment, at the same time, called upon Governor Seymour, of New York, to order out 20,060 Militia to assist in the exigency. Governor Seymour forthwith summoned the several major- generals of the State Militia to consult upon the necessary steps to betaken, and yesterday several regiments of Militia declared themselves in readiness to embark for Pennsylvania. This morn- ing the excitement and alarm have somewhat abated. NEW YORK, JUNE 17. The latest Federal advices from Vicksburg and Port Hudson, to the 11th inst, contain no news of importance. The Richmond papers of the 13th contain a statement that Ge=- neral Johnstone had cut his way through General Grant's lines, and reinforced the garrison of Vicksburg with 15,000 men. The Richmond Sentinel of the 13th states that a considerable- Federal force had appeared on the peninsula between the James and York Rivers, and was advancing towards the city. The Con- federate troops on the peninsula had fallen back to avoid being flanked by the Federal gunboats, which had also made an advance movement on the James River. General Corcoran, at the head of 12,000 cavalry, infantry, and artillery, left Suffolk, Virginia, on the 11th inst, on an expedition to the Blackwater country. Confederate journals of the 10th instant state that Federal Colonel Grierson, in his raid upon Clinton, Louisiana, on the 3d instant, encountered Confederate General Logan, who defeated and drove him back six miles, capturing two of his cannon, and killing and wounding 35 of his men. Mr Simon Cameron made a speech at Harrisburg on the 15th, in which he denounced the Administration as reckless and dis- graceful in its neglect of Pennsylvania. He argued that General M'Clellan or General Franklyn should be appointed to the com- mand of the militia of the state. The President has acknowledged to the committee of the Val- landigham meeting, held in Albany on the 16th ult, the receipt of a copy of resolutions adopted on that occasion. In his reply he asserts that Mr Vallandigham was not arrested for treason, but for labouring to discourage enlistments, to incite to desertion, and to leave the Government without adequate military force to suppress the rebellion, and declares that he would gladly release him if he believed the public safety would not suffer thereby. Mr Lincoln argues his right to suspend the Habeas Corpus, and declares the freedom of speech demanded by the Democratic party was calculated to keep up a corps of spies, informers, and supplyers, aiders and abettors of the Confederate cause in a thousand ways; that the time will come when he will be blamed for having made too few arrests instead of two many; and that it is his duty to employ all measures that may seem to him to be necessary to provide for the public safety. On account of a strike among the stevedores and ' longshore men the steamer Sheldrake, which was to have sailed for Liver- pool yesterday, has been detained until to- day. The Inman Packet City of Limerick, advertised to leave this port at noon to- day, will also be detained by the same cause. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. Under the influence of the exciting war news, gold went up yesterday to 150; to- day it has sold as low as 145f. The closing rates of yesterday were: — Exchange, 160; United States Sixes, Registered, 1881, 104^; Treasury 7- 30 Notes, 106; New York Central Railway Shares, 119 § ; Erie, 93J; Illinois Central, 1025 Cotton, 57£ c. Breadstuff's irregular. Provisions unchanged. Prices to- day vary from 5 to | per cent from those of last evening^ New York Central and Illinois Central are lower, and Erie higher. RUMOUR OF AN ARMISTICE BETWEEN THE NORTH AND SOUTH. PARIS, JUNE 27. The Paris evening papers contain the following:—" It is as serted on good authority that France . and England have come to an understanding, and are about to propose an armistice to the belligerents in America. " In case of a refusal on the part of the North, France and Eng- land will recognise the South." The Emperor will come to Paris en Monday next to preside at a Council of Ministers. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. To- day, the Hon Hugh Rowley applied to pass his last exami- nation, and for his discharge. The debts were about £ 1,000, prin- cipally for law costs in a suit for a divorce by his wife in which he had failed. He was a creditor for £ 344. The bankrupt said that the proceedings taken by his wife had placed him in this position. He had not been doing anything to earn his living, but a nobl* relative had supplied him with money.— The Commissioner passed him, and ordered his release from prison. CONVICTION OF PUBLICANS FOR USING GLASSES NOT IMPERIAL MEASURE. To- day, at Guildhall, Mr Winter, proprietor of the Bell Tavern and Luncheon Bar, Basinghall- street, and Mr Gurney, proprietor of the European Tavern, facing the Mansion House, were charged with using in business glasses not containing imperial measure. This was a newpoint deeply affecting the public as well as licensed victuallers, aiming as it does at the suppression of the practice of drawing malt liquors in glasses much smaller than the lega1 measure se universally adopted in London, to the benefit of the vendor and injury to the consumer. In the case of the defendant Winter, Mr Johnson, an inspector of weights and measures, said on the 22d June he was in defendant's house and hearda man ask for a pint of porter, which was served in one of the glasses produced, and after the man had drunk the beer he ( wit- ness) measured the glass, and found it three- quarters of an ounce short of the imperi al pint. Three other glasses were half an ounce deficient, three three- quarters of an ounce, one one- and- a- quarter ounce, and one one ounce and three- quarters short. He seized six of the glasses produced. The defence set up was that the defends ant's bar was divided into two compartments, and in the one used for luncheon purposes only, glass was used, and if any one required malt liquor in imperial measure he was referred to the other counter. It was understood by the public that the glasses did not contain imperial measure, but they were preferred as drinking ves- sels on the score of cleanliness. They were not intended as measures. The clerk said that by a decision of Mr Justice Hill in an appeal; case, Reg v Aultor, it was laid down that a vessel of glass or earthenware, though not marked, if ordinarily used by a vendor of beer as a measure, containing the same quantity as imperial measure, and if found to be unjust is liable to be seized under the 28th section of the act, and the vendor himself liable to a penalty^ Aldermen Mechi and Lawrence agreed that a conviction must follow, as it was clear in these cases the deficiency was always- against the customer, in some instances amounting to three and three- quarters, six and a quarter, and eight and three quarters per cent. They inflicted ; the mitigated penalty of 10s and costs. Mr Gurney's case was very nearly similar to the preceding one,, and it was admitted they had 110 pewter measure of any kind in the house for the use of the customers. He was also fined in the mitigated penalty of 10s and costs, but the aldermen wished the trade generally to know that for the future the full penalty of £ 5> would be enforced in every case. SKITTLE SHARPERS. To- day, at Bow- street, Samuel Woodall was charged with steal- ing and obtaining by false pretences the sum of £ 40 from Johan Christian Liechfeldt, the master of a Prussian bark, lying in the Victoria Dock. The prisoner came up to the complainant whil ® he was smoking a cigar on London Bridge, and finding he was a foreigner volunteered to show him the sights of London; amongst other places he took him to a skittle ground where they met a friend of the prisoner's, and they induced complainant to stake £ 40 upon the result of a game. The prisoner and his friend de- clared they bad won, but the complainant denied it. They, how- ever, snatched up the money, and went away with it. The com- plainant met the prisoner in the street the next day, and gave him into custody.— Remanded. FATAL FIGHT- MANSLAUGHTER. ^ To- day, at Stratford, John Lee was charged with tli| man- slaughter of William Miccles; and Charles Chilock and' Albert Young were charged with being accessories to the act. ^ pri~ soners, who are gipsies, were committed to Newgate for trial on the charge of manslaughter. CRYSTAL PALACE.— Return of admissions for six days ending Saturday, June 27 ( including season ticket holders), 34.065. THE WEATHER AND CROPS IN WORCESTERSHIRE.— The rains we have had lately have had the most beneficial effect on the grass, seeds, pastures, and corn crops, and have come just in sea son to make tolerably good crops of almost everything. They will enable the farmers to complete their swede planting, and very much improve those which are planted. Grass has very much improved, and by waiting a week or nine days longer than usual before it is cut the crop will be a fairish one. Peas, beans, and wheat have shot up wonderfully since the rain commenced. The two former will be long, exceedingly well blossomed, and will to all appearance be well corned, the land is now well saturated with wet. The crops will grow fast, and before the moisture is absorbed they will shade the ground, so that a return of <' ry weather would not have such an injurious effect, while warmth would make everything grow faster. Had the dry wea- ther continued much longer, the grass, seeds, and pastures would have been parched and burned up. Loud and many were the complaints which were being made, but those fears have been dispelled, and if we get some nice fine weather it will be found that net much damage has been done after all. Some of the late- planted barley, which lay in the ground owing to the dry wea- ther, will now make its appearance ; but we fear there is much barley on light gravelly soil which has been so much injured by the drought that it will never come to anything like a good crop. — Worcestershire Chronicle.
