GOODWOOD STAKES, GOODWOOD CUP, And ST LEGER. CHARLES OAKLEY'' S information on the above important races is of a very first- rate character, and ought to be acted upon immediate! v. 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, aud 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 cf winning, and strongly urges all who want to realize a capitd Etake to get on his choice a't once. Remember C. Oakley woq both these racce last year, and never lost the Goodwood Stakes, having named the winner Lf'this imnortant and exciting raca for the last eight years in succession. The following were C. Oakley's bona fide selections. THE GOODWOOD STAKES. Quince 1855 won Pretty Boy lb.'*-, won Leamingtoa 1857 won The Roman Caudle 1858 we n Starke 1859 wen Wallace 1860 won Elcho 1861 won and last not least his trul v 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 ire 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 thanks 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 on his part to justify their continued sup- port. 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 means of procur- ing the very best information, stands unrivalled.

COLONEL DICKSON AND TBE TOWER HAMLETS MILITIA.— The Court of Queen's Bench was engaged lately for nearly nine days in trying a case in which Colonel Dickson cQarged Field- Marshal Lord Combermere, General Peel, and Lord Wilton with a con- spiracy against him, by which he was deprived of his commission in the army ( and in the course of which General Peel was absolved i and acquitted of any guilty participation in the matters charged). It is impossible for us to go into the minutia; of the case, which ! has been several times before the public. The following are the ; chief, points:— In the spring of 1855, the 2d Tower Hamlets Regi- ment of Militia was embodied, and at that time Colonel North was its commanding officer, and Colonel Dickson was senior major. A mess was forthwith formed, and in the course of the | summer a number of entertainments were given, the expenses of ; which were drawn from the mess fund. In August of the same ' year Colonel North retired, and was succeeded in the command ot j the regiment by Colouel Dickson, and two months afterwards a i mess committee was for the first time appointed. In the month j of June in the follo^ ng year the regiment was disembo- 1 died at a few days' notice, and it was then found that the accounts of the regiment were in a very unsatisfactorj' condition. A board of inquiry which was instituted to examine into the mat- ter reported that between the time when the regiment was embodied and the appointment of the mess committee there had been gr at misapplication of the funds, and that suitable in- vestigation had not bean periodically instituted into the state of the regimental accounts. The board also reported that Colonel Dickson had for sometime kept in his possession a considerable outstanding balance, which might have been devoted to clearing j oft the debts of the regiment. This report having been furnished 1 : o the Earl of Wilton as colonel of the regiment, he sent a copy of i: to Colonel Dickson, and the latter, in reply, gave an explanation ? his conduct in so far as it had been made the subject of censure. 1 Up :: the time this report was made it may be remarked that the ! Earl of Wilton and Colonel Dickson had been on terms of friend- ship ; but one of the creditors of the regiment having, some time afterwards, sued the former as colonel, and recovered from - ly- i the sum of £. 500, it was suggested that this circumstance 1W' 1 greatly changed his feelings towards the lieutenant- colonel. Th- ® * i Earl of Wilton communicated the report, with Colonel Dickson's I explanations, to Lord Combermere, and the latter, when he heard that the Earl of Wilton had been sued for a regimental debt, told Colonel Dickson to resign. With this request the latter refused to comply, and thereupon the matter was placed in the hands of Gen Peel as Secretary for War. A board of inquiry was then ap- pointed to enquire into all the circumstances of the case. and its re- port having been made, the Secretary for War again afforded Col Dickson the opportunity of resigning. He however, again refused, and shortly afterwards was superseded by command of HerMojesty, and it was in consequence of this dismissal that Col Dickson took the present proceedings, in the course of which, as we have above stated, General Peel was acquitted. The Chief Justice, after the case Lad been ably argued, summed up at great length, and con- ! c'. uded as follows. The question was this:— Was there irregu- 1 larity for which Col Dickson was properly responsible, and if these things had been brought before the colonel the question was whether the colonel had done more than in strict duty he was bound to do, when he found the explanations were not satisfac- tory, in submitting the matter to the superior authorities. Could Lord Wilton have done other than he did ? Could Lord Corsber- mere have done anything than place the whole before the War Office ? If the jury thought it was a coHspiracy to drive this gen- tleman from the army and from his position, and to do this they preferred charges untrue in substance, and which they believed to be untrue, and by those means Colonel Dickson was injured, it would be their duty to find a verdict for the plaintiff. If they did not think this then they should find a verdict for the defendants. On the second count, " if they thought the course General Peel took a right one, and that there had been want of regularity and attention to his duty by Colonel Dickson as the commanding offi- cer, it that case it was impossible to say there was not reasonable and probable cause for making the charge. He did not see how they could come to the conclusion that the charges were mali- ciously made. If they thought there was no foundation for the charges— no reasonable and probable cause— that they were mali- cious— that they were put forward with a view to oppress, injure, and destroy Colonel Dickson— of course their verdict would be against both or either of the defendants; but they must not forget that tl at conclusion jnvolved one of the gravest charges— one of the greatest imputations— which could possibly affect the charac- ter and honour of men. They would now take the case into their hands, and say what their verdict was.— The jury, after only seven minutes' c. nsultatioH, found for the defendants." | 1VERPOOL CUP WINNER.— CHARLES JLJ BENSON sent Fairwater only at long odd? last year, and his sub- scribers will land another great stake ou the present occasion.

In the first Mr Winter, the proprietor of the Bell Tavern and luncheon, bar, in Basingliall- street, was summoned before Alderman Mechi and Alderman W. Lawrence for using in his business six glasses not containing imperial measure. This was an entirely new point, and one which deeply affects the licensed victuallers' com- munity, aiming as it does at the suppression of the practice of drawing malt liquors in small glasses so universally adopted in London, and the court was therefore crowded with members of the trade interested in the result.— Mr Beard attended for the defence.— Mr Johnson, one of the inspectors of weights and measures, said he was in defendant's house on the 22d of June, and heard a 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 witness) measured the glass and found it was three quarters of an ouiioe short of the imperial pint. Three other glasses were half ar. ounce deficient, three three quarters of an ounce, one or. e and a quarter ounce, and one one and three quarters of an ounce. He did not seize the three glasses which were only half an ounce short, deeming the six produced sufficient for the present case. — Mr Beard said this was a question of vital importance to the licensed victuallers of London, and explained that in the present instance the defendant's bar was divided into two compart- ments, in one of which, as it was frequented by gentlemen for lur. cheon purposes, only glass was used, and if any one re- quired malt liquor in imperial measure hewas referred toilie other cotnp-. Ttiner. t w'aere pewter was used. It was well understood by the public that the glasses did not contain imperial measure, but they were preferred as drinking vessels on the score of cleanliness. Alderman Mechi said that might be, but in so accommodating the public thedefendantgottheadvantage. of the lfoz deficiency. It was quite clear the glasses produced were not proper legal measures. — Mr. Beard said they were not measures at all, and to prove the bond fide intention of the defendant he produced an invoice to show that the glasses he had bought since he had been in the house were invoiced to him as imperial pints.— Alderman Mechi said he entirely acquitted Mr Winter of any improper motives in using such imperfect measures; at the same time a great wrong was inflicted upon the public, and it was that which the magistrates had to deal with.— Mr Youle, clerk to the justices, said that it was not necessary to stamp glass measures, but by the appeal case of Regina v Aulton it was laid down by Mr Justice Hill that " a vessel of glass or earthenware, though not marked, if ordinarily used by a vendor of beer as a measure containing the same quan- tity as imperial measure, and if found to be unjust, is liable to be seized under the 28th section of the act, and the vendor him- self is liable to the penalty."— Mr Beard again submitted that the beer was drawn in the glass, not to measure a specific quan- tity, but for the purpose of meeting the convenience of gen- tlemen who merely required a draught from a clean vessel.— Alderman Lawrence said the invoice proved the case against de- fendant, as it amounted t- o an admission that he ought to give imperial measure in the glasses referred to, all of which were de- ficient.— Mr Eeard said the glasses produced were not the same referred to in the invoice. They were old stock, and were kept for lemonade and ginger beer, but mistakes could not always be avoided in the use of them.— Alderman Mechi said the court could have entertained the line of defence adopted had the deficiency Etated been the average of a number of measures; but it appeared that the imperfections in the glass measures produced were all in favour of the tavern keeper, and he must therefore convict the defendant, but as it was the first case of the kind he would only fine him the nominal penalty of 10s and costs.— Mr Beard hoped, after the explanation given, that the defendant would have escaped the stigma on his character of a conviction.— Alderman Lawrence reminded Mr Beard that the deficiency of the g'. ass< 6 produced amounted to 3| per cent, per cent, and per cent— Mr Beard said he was prepared to undertake on the part of his client that the practice of drawing beer in small glasses, although for the benefit of the public, should be discontinued.— Alderman Lawrence said he hoped it would, as by so great a deficiency the tavern- keeper obtained an additional profit of one pint out'of every fifteen pints of liquor he sold.— The defendant said he had six dozen pewter pints and four sets of measures, and they were all found to be perfectly correct.— Alderman Mechi said he could not alter his decision. * He had imposed a nominal penalty, because he believed the defendant had offended unin- tentionally, but he wished the trade generally to know that for the future the full penalty of £ 5 would be enforced in every case.— In the second case, Mr Gurney, the proprietor of the European Tavern, opposite the Mansion House, was also summoned for a similar offence.— Mr Johnson said he visited the defendant's house, and heard three different persons call for a pint of stout each, which was served to thern in glasses, which he after- wards found were deficient, and which he seized. He measured twelve glasses, two of which were of imperial measure, five were nearly half an ounce short, one | oz, two loz each, one lfoz, and one ljoz against the purc'iaser.— The defendant said he would take care that none but imperial measures were used for the future. There were ne pewter measures of any kind for the use of customers in any part of the house.— Mr Beard, who defended Mr Gurney, said that if a customer asked for imperial measure there was no doubt he was entitled to have it; but if he asked merely for a glass of ale or stout, imperial measure was not ex- pected. If the trade were not allowed to serve glasses of beer it would be the ruin of every luncheon- bar in London, although in Mr Gurney's case his intention was to give the full imperial measure.— Alderman Lawrence said it was quite clear that none but imperial measures could legally be used ; and if the defen- dant found he could not afford to do so he must charge more for the beer, and not deduct his profit from the quantity of beer that ought to be supplied.— Mr Beard said his client did not desire to do either ; but mistakes would occur.— Alderman Mechi said it was a precisely similar case to the last. It was not an average defi- ciency. where some of the measures contained more than the imperial quantity, but all the glasses were more or less against the consumer. He, however, absolved Mr Gurney of any desire to impose on the public, and therefore fined him the same amount as in the case of Mr Winter, 10s and costs.— The fines in both cases were paid. SUPPOSED MURDER.— On Thursday an inquest was held at the Lord Wellington, University- street, on the body of a man un- known, who was found on the pavement in Gower- street on the night of Saturday, June 27, with his skull and ribs fractured, his teeth knocked out, and other frightful injuries.— Walter Gibbs deposed that he resided at 4, Gower- mews. Shortly before one o'clock on the morning of Sunday, June28, he was goinghome. when he saw deceased fall down the steps of one of the houses ( he be- lieved No. 86 or 87) in Gower- street. He lay on the pavement, and appeared to be insensible or very drunk. He obtained the assist- ance of a policeman and a stretcher, and the man was conveyed to the station- house. As at eight o'clock on the fun day morning he still remained insensible, he was taken to University College Hospital.— Mr Sidney Ringer, resident surgeon, said deceased was brought to the hospital about eight o'clock on Sunday morn- ing insensible, and evidently labouring under some injury to ti e brain. ' He was much disfigured. His front teeth had been knocked out, his gums broken, and there was a contusion and abrasion of the skin of the right temple and over the right eye. and a contusion also behind the left ear and a large cut under the chin. The right arm was bruised, and there was also a severe bruise in the inner part of the left leg behind. He died the same evening. On a postmortem, examination and shaving the haad he discovered a contusion of the scalp and a fracture of th? skull— a star fracture, extending for five inches, both thro- the frontal and temporal bones; and there was also a fracture-^ the sixth rib near the cartilage. It was quite impossible that the deceased could have received all these injuries by the fall down the steps described by the first witness. It was very doubtful whether a series of falls could have produced such injuries. The injuries appeared to be rather the result of violence towards the deceased man. The cause of death was effusion of blood on the brain, corresponding internally with the outward fracture of the skull.— The coroner said it was almost impossible that the man could have fallen on that part of the head which was the seat of fracture. He should therefore suggest an adjournment, in order, if possible, to enable the police to ascertain the deceased's identity, and make inquiries as to where he was on the Saturday night. The jury concurred, and the inquest was adjourned for a we6k. THE L. VTE SERGEANT- MAJOR LILLEY.— The Rev W. Turner, of Spilsby, who has interested himself on behalf of the parents of the late Sergeant- Major Lilley, now residing in that quiet Lin- colnshire town, has received a communication to the effect that they will receive a pension, dating from the dajT of their son's death. The amount of the pension is said to be 2s 6d per day. 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.

F W, Enfield— No. Harrv VIII.— No. Wykehamist— We do not know of any others. though we have no doubt what the power of England could effect in such a war, we earnestly desire to avoid it. We have no fears of aa Alabama or of Commodore Wilkes; our sailors would soon put an end to their marauding. But we should deprecate the loss of a single life in a needless contest, to the exasperation of which we should add by becoming parties to it. The Jesuitical pleading of Mr Gladstone, and the partisan notions of Mr Bright, are not those of the people of England. But peace is their wish, and they hope that the friendly representations of a power which has shown itself singularly impartial, and has never suffered its own interests to sway its conduct, will have more and better effect in producing peace than any active intervention, which might embitter and even prolong the existing strife, but would never be heartily relished even by the party" in whose favour it was exerted. One favourite ground for recommending intervention is that of the supposed earnestness of the French Emperor to join in inter- vening. Mr Roebuck has pledged his word to the reality of that earnestness. The debate of Thursday night shows how little judgment he must have exercised in his dealings with the French Emperor. But even if he was correct in his belief, the cor- rectness of it would furnish no sufficient reason for England adopt- ing a line of conduct which, if not supported by arms, would be ridiculous; and if supported by arms, especially for such reasons as Mr Roebuck puts forward, would deservedly subject England to the censures of all honourable men in this and in every future age. + THE IONIAN ISLANDS. Every one must be really glad to put an end to England's con- nection with the Ionian Islands, at least in the form in which that connection existed. The Ionians owe to England years of peaceful prosperity. They were almost untaxed; the}" were, but rather unavailingly, exercised in the forms of representative government, and they were protected all over the world by the forces and the authority of England. They have been nothing to us but a cause of annoyance, and a means of being slan- dered. They now, it appears, shun the annexation which for years they have so loudly demanded. They must suffer the consequences of their own double dealing. But there is another view to be taken of the cession, and in taking it we declare our adherence to the opinion expressed by Lord Derby. The cession has been made without any regard to the military interests of England, to the interests of Austria, or to those of Turkey. We have given up to a sinister influence our own well- built fortresses, that will be used as a means for disturbing the tranquillity of Austria and Turkey. The former power is legally entitled to remonstrate— the latter ha3 no legal, though every moral, right to make objections. But no one can doubt that for a purpose of his own, unintelligible to any one, Lord Russell has done an act pregnant with mischief for our allies, and, let us add, with evil to ourselves. 4, — THE DICKSON AND WILTON CASE. That a trial in which the characters of various public men were concerned should last eight days, and then be deemed unworthy of serious notice, might have seemed incredible, but the Diekso11 and Wilton case has established that such may be the fact. The time of the jurors and of the proper suitors of the court has been wasted in an inquiry which did not deserve the consumption of half a day for its decision. Not even public curiosity required the employment of so much time to gratify its fancies. The mutual ill- will of these two persons has spent itself on a contest which had about it " nothing interesting except to the parties con- cerned." One was dismissed from the command of a militia regiment in consequence of a report of a board of inquiry, which does not seem to have charged anything beyond incapacity and irregularity, and the other is charged with having conspired with Lord Combermere and General Peel to procure this dismissal and to perpetuate it. Every one can see that the true cause of quarrel between these* two persons was here presented in only one of its phases, and that the least acri- monious of them. What might be thought to give a public character to this private hostility was to be found in the ad- mixture of other names with those of the real parties to the quarrel. And this admixture wa3 certainly to be re- probated. It was utterly unjust, and it was as im- politic a3 it was unjust. There was no pretence to charge General Peel and Lord Combermere as conspirators. If they had acted wrongly it was the wrongfulness of error, not of vice; they were most unnecessarily made defen- dants in the proceeding. Wre have said that the act of making them defendants was as impolitic as it was unjust, and it was so. From the moment that the jurymen saw that there was no ground to charge these gentlemen with what the world at large understands by the word conspiracy, the cause of complaint which Colonel Dickson sought to present against Lord Wilton lost ail its force. It was right that it should do so. Assuming everything alleged against Lerd Wilton to be true, it would have been the grossest injustice to enable Colonel Dickson to punish him by punishing two wholly innocent gentle- men. If there really was a serious ground of complaint against Lord Wilton, the charge against him should have been that he had " falsely and maliciously,'' & c, made misrepresemtations to these two officers with a view to injure Colonel Dickson ; not that they had " falsely and maliciously" conspired with Lord Wilton for such a purpose; they did nothing of the kind. So far as this trial goes there seems little evidence to justify the charge as against Lord Wilton, but to drag in General Peel and Lord Com- bermere does wear the appearance of an act of gratuitous annoy- ance, which has met with its deserved punishment in a complete defeat.

Con- sidering what are the pretensions of the hon member for Sheffield, this fact is curious enough, and is sufficient to stamp its proper character on the cause he advocates. But if this discrediting ob- jection to his motion did not exist, there are others quite strong enough to call for its condemnation. He puts the great reason for his scheme on the poor ground of self- interest. In all private concerns if is usual to say that a man's judgment with regard to a course of action is not to be implicitly trusted if it is biassed by considerations of self- interest. Mr Roebuck so palpably contra- dicts the sound reasoning and daily practice of his countrymen as to place the reason for acting in a particular way upon the very ground which Englishmen in general think to be almost decisive against acting at all. Mr Roebuck assumes the position of a judge of events and of an adviser of conduct, and his very first ob- servation proclaims a state of mind and feeling entirely adverse to the capacity for judgment and to the fitness for giving advice. We cannot recognise in this matter that Mr Roebuck is the real representative of the opinions of the men of Sheffield. We are certain that he is not the exponent of the opinions of Englishmen in general. The regret, the pain, the sorrow which the civil war in North America causes to Englishmen are, in all honourable minds, entirely dis- tinct from a desire for money advantage in one way or the other. We would put an end to the war if we could, not because it would make cotton cheaper and give employment to our fac- tory hands, but because its continuance is a curse to the people whom it rages, and a discredit to the glorious race whose . tldren are waging it. The great English race— the men who are the most distinguished supporters of civil and religious liberty, the men who were to furnish an example to the whole world of the truth that those who govern themselves can do so with the greatest amount of honour and happiness— are the men who are now devastating each other's homes, and cutting each other's throats, with a degree of bitterness such as the mere minions of royal ambition have not always exhibited. It is this which is a pain to all English minds; it is this which all sensible and honourable Englishmen feel as a disgrace to their race, and a blot upon the character of Republican Government. And because they so feel it, and not for any narrow purposes of self- interest, do they wish to see an end to the war. Mr Roebuck has a different reason; he says that he desires to see an end to the Union, and he quotes the description given by Cassius of Caesar to illustrate his meaning. Happily for the world this illustration is inapt. No one nation, however power- ful, has been able or desirous to inflict on mankind as many evils as a single tyrant has often occasioned. And in England we have never had, and it is to be hoped never shall have, any fear of any nation, however powerful. We have been unwilling to go to war with the United States for other reasons than mere fear of their power; had the extent of their power been the only cause of restraint, we should more than once have plunged nto hostilities with them. Mr Roebuck's reasons for recognising the South are, therefore, not those which win the sympathy of Englishmen, or in an} r way command their adherence, or can ob- tain their respect. That we have a legal right to recognise the Southern States this journal has always asserted. The only question to be considered is, whether wisdom recommends, and good results may be antici- pated from, the recognition. For if not, it had better not be made. Now all known facts lead to the conclusion that the recognition, up to and at this time, could not but be followed by war; and FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE, FRANCE. The Patrie says that a decree of the Emperor, dated June 22, prociaims entire* freedom in the baking trade of Paris from Sep- tember next. No limit is to be placed to the number of bakers, and all absolute restrictions are to be replaced by control suf- ficing to ensure fairness in the weight of bread and excellence of quality. The Patrie also, in an article signed by M Delamarre, asserts that the new Minister of Public Works will undertake the task of establishing a complete network of internal navigation throughout the country, the use of which, as of the land roads, is to be based on the principle of entire freedom of transit without tolls. The Moniteur publishes General Forey's official accounts of the fall of Puebla. The general pays a just tribute to the courage of the French soldiers, which shines all the blighter from the un- daunted pluck which the Mexicans seem to have displayed. Gene- ral Forey, however, does not admit that the surrender of the town was due to the fact that the Mexicans were short of provisions or ammunition. They surrendered, according to him, because they saw that the capture of the town by storm was impending, and were conscious of their inability to prevent it. With reference to this he says that he " had not concealed to thebearer of the Mexi- can flag of truce that if the garrison awaited the general assault, it would, according to the laws ef war, bapasseeau fil de l& pee— in plain English, that the survivors would be put to death." The Temps makes some very sensible remarks on this strange threat on the part of a commander entrusted with the duty of initiating the Mexicans to the blessings of civilisation. ARCHERY. POLAND. The insurrection seems to be spreading, and the defeats of the Russians to become more frequent. TURKEY- The Prince of Servia is again trying to give trouble to the Porte. He is making demands in the teeth of the recently settled arrange- ment. He believes, of course, that the cry of " Christian'' will clrown all sound and sense of justice. MEXICO. The Mexicans show no signs of an intention to surrender. Mexico is to be defended, and if lost, the Government will retire to San Louis Potosi. The Mexican Government has issued a very exciting proclamation, and if General Forey has published to the Mexicans what he has said in his official despatch to the French Emperor ( for which see cur French intelligence), the Mexicans will find that they have a ruthless invader, and that their only hope is to be found* in a deteimined resistance. MADAGASCAR. The King has been murdered. The Paris evening papers state that the minister of the murdered King Radama, the officers of the palace, and the commander of the King's Guard were fo- reigners. La France says that the Queen of Madagascar and her ministers, the instigators of the revolution, are devoted to the English. The truth is that one Lambert, a Frenchman, had made the King unpopular by getting favours without measure from the King, and so exciting the jealousy of the natives. AMERICA. General Lee, with an army estimated at 100,000 men, including 30,000 cavalry, has commenced an offensive campaign against the Northern States, the plans of which are not j et fully developed. General Lee's invasion has created an immense sensation through- out the Northern States. President Lincoln has called out 100,000 militia from Pennsylvania, Maryland, Western Virginia, Ohio, and New York, for six months' service. The governors of the different states responded promptly, and the New York 7th Regi- ment and several others leave for Harrisburg. President Lincoln has sent a reply to the committee who for- warded him the resolutions passed at the Albany Vallandigham meeting. The president says that the ordinary law courts are inadequate to the emergency. He continues:—" Military arrests and the suspension of the Habeas Corpus Act are constitutional whenever public safety demands it. Mr Vallandigham was ar- rested by the military because he was warring against the mili- tary, by labouring to prevent the raising of troops and of encou- raging desertion," President Lincoln states that he does not know whether in his own discretion he would have arrested Mr Vallandigbam, but he thinks commanders in the field better judges of particular cases! He will discharge Mr Vallandigbam as soon as he can by any means believe that public safety will not suffer by it. THE COURT. Her Majesty and the youthful members of the royal family wil' leave Windsor Castle this day for Osborne. HEALTH OF PRINCE LEOPOLD.— It is stated that the health of his royal highness is far from satisfactory. It will be remem- bered that about two years ago he went to Madeira, to try the effect of a change of climate. DEATH OF GENERAL SIR JAMES LILYMAN CALDWELL, G. C. B. — The above gallant and distinguished general, whose death oc- curred at his residence, at Beachtands, Isle of Wight, on Sunday last, at the advanced age of 93 years, was son of Major Arthur Caldwell, of the Bengal Engineers, and nephew of the late Sir Alax. Caldwell, G. C. B. He was born at Greenwich in 1770, and entered the military service of the East India Company, in the Madras Presidency, in 1773. NATIONAL RIFLE ASSOCIATION.— With reference to regulation 12, in the bye- laws for the prize meeting, we are requested to state that any competitor opening, weighing, or in any way tam- pering with the government cartridges issued on the ground from the National Rifle Association magazine, will be disqualified. THE YELVERTON CASE.— This case was set down for hearing in the House of Lords for Tuesday last, but it is doubtful if it will come before their lordships this session. Mr Thelwali, of Hull, who recovered a verdict against Major Yelverton in Ireland for Mrs Yelverton's maintenance, is taking proceedings against the major in England to enforce the payment in the English courts. EXTRAORDINARY DISASTER TO A GOODS TRAIN.— TWELVE TRUCKS BURNED.— On Monday morning, at about six o'clock, a train which had left Sighthill goods station, near Glasgow, for the north, was approaching Larbert station, when the engine got off ths rails, dragging after it the greater portion of the train, and blocking up both lines of rails. The concussion caused by the sudden stoppage having smashed some of the leading trucks ; the debris of these caught fire from the engine, communicating the fire to other trucks, said to be loaded with petroleum, paraffin oil, and other inflammable material; and before it was extinguished no fewer than twelve trucks, with their contents were consumed. The line was got cleared by mid- day. Fortunately no one was injured.— Edinburgh Courant. HEREFORD CATHEDRAL.— For about a quarter of a century this venerable fabric has been under repair, and on Wednesday, July 1, there was a public re- opening, conducted with great cere- mony, and attended by some thousands of persons, including two bishops and nearly 400 clerg3'. The choir and nave were both used for divine service ; the screen dividing the two portions of the sacred edifice— lately so prominent an object in the Interna- tional Bxhibition— though sufficiently dividing the nave from the choir, permits the occupants on both sides to join together in wor- ship. The restorations, commenced by Mr Cottingham, have been continued by Mr Gilbert Scott, and they afford the most striking church restorations of modern times. The cathedral, in fact, looks almost like a new edifice, under the improving and restoring hands of mason and embellisher. The total expendi- ture in the restorations, which as we have already said have ex- tended over nearlj* a quarter of a century, has exceeded £ 40,000. 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. MEETINGS ALREADY FIXED.

The weather on Wednesday was all that could be desired over- head for the large body of spectators assembled, but not so much so for the shooters as a strong uncertain wind blew directly across the targets, and the archera universally experienced great diffi- culty in keeping a correct line. But for this the shooting, on the part of the gentlemen especially, would have be6a of a very high character; indeed, as it was, the average of the first five or six was the best of the present year, and though no great single score was achieved, Mr Ford's 420 being the highest of the list, the general character of the shooting was undoubtedly above the average. Mr Peter - Muir, a Scatch bowman of great celebrity, reappeared in the arena, and sustained his well- earned reputation, being second on the daj's shooting, and but 21 behind Mr Ford. Mr Edward's followed next, but a considerable way behind, his total amount- ing to 354 only. Next to him came Mr Walters, with 337, close at his heels, Mr Townsend with 314, followed by the Irish champion, Mr Atkinson, with 308 ; all this very close fighting. Mr Macna- mara, of whom great things were expected, but whose shooting is not adapted for windy weather, was not so successful as he had been at the Crystal Palace and Leamington meetings, but he came in eighth, with 287, Mr Hare being seventh with 297. The ladies shot but indifferently, the championess herself ( Mrs Horniblow) getting but 207, closely pressed by Mrs Litchfield, whose score was 248, and that of Mrs Hare, 213. The scores of the next five were wonderfully close together— Miss Gregson was fourth, with 211; Mias Eastwood fifth, with 208 ; Miss H. Chet- wynd sixth, with 207 ; Mrs Bubb eighth, with 204; and Miss Blanche Edwards ninth, with 193. Thursday was a most unfavourable day for the sport, a strong and uncertain wind blowing nearly the whole of the day, so as to set at defiance all calculation. The shooting was, consequently, as unsuccessful as could well be, with two or three exceptions. Mr Muir, after an interregnum of 15 years, headed the list, shoot- ing magnificently, and making a total, in spite of the wind, such as he has never before achieved at any national meeting— 845 in the whole. Mr Coulson's admirable loose enabled him to drive his arrows through the wind with great effect. Mr Ford, almost as soon as the shooting was commenced, showed that his chance was out, provided that his majority on the previous day proved in- sufficient to pull him through. He succeeded in getting 350 only; but his first day's score was so good as to place him in the second place, with a very considerable majority over the third man, Mr Coulson. Fourth on the list came Mr Edwards, followed closely by Mr Walters, who was but some 10 points behind at the finish. Mr Macnamara did not realise the expectations of his friends. The contest for first place among the ladies was both close and interesting, Miss Chetwynd contending with the championess's heavy metal with great vigour and success ; indeed, so close was the contest between them, that at the final conclusion of the match Mrs Horniblow was only 10 points ahead, her score being but 478, a sad drop down after* her splendid shooting at Leamington; but the weather was dreadful. Still, allowing for that, this lady failed to shoot up to her usual mark or near it; consequently, the Silver Bracer all but slipped from her grasp. Miss Chetwynd's total amounted to 468. Third on the list comes Miss Blanche Edwards, she having been but eighth on the previous day; and beautifully she shot, getting within less than 30 points of the highest score attained. Considering this was her first appearance at a national meeting, her shooting was marvellously clever. Of the shooting of the other ladies there is little worthy of remark. As a rule, they all failed; and several we have been accustomed to see at the head of the list failed to appear in it at all; but it was not to be wondered at, few having the good fortune to conquer so great a difficulty as a constantly varying gale incessantly pre- sented to hitting the target.

The first ladies' prize was woa by Miss Holmes, the se- cond by Miss A. Dennison, and Miss Cobb made the best gold. The first gentlemen's prize went to Mr A. E.

SWIMMING,— On Wednesday evening, July 1, two or three swimming contests came off at the Leaf- street Ba'ths, Hulme, Man- chester, tiie whole of the arrangements having been undertaken by that celebrated professor of natation, Professor Poulton. The first prize was for youths under 16 years of age, four lengths of the bath. The race was won t> y P. Williams, C. H. Bincliffe being second.— Next came the great 500 yards match between Mr D. Meakin ( who we understand had been instructed in this art by Professor Poulton) and P. Johnson, the Lancashire Champion. Mr Meakin won, after a close contest, in Smin 45sec.— Afterwards a contest was decided, open to all youths of England undergo years of age. This event was won * by Mr Kewley, he defeating " Mr Meakin by two yards.— Mr Mather, who recently defeated Gardner of London on the river Thames, then introduces his Champion Challenge Cup, and stated, in reference to Mr Beck- wick's challenge, that he was willing to swim that gentleman in accordance with the stipulations in connection with the cup and the Championship. Professor Poulton subsequently exhibited his amphibious qualifications, Mr Elton having ably acquitted himself as judge and starter. SWIMMING MATCH ON THE SERPENTINE.— On Wednesday morning, July 1, a swimming match took place on the Serpentine, Hyde Park, for a sum of £ 20, between Jones ( the Bermondsey Dolphin) and a young man named Coater, servant to a gentleman residing in Belgravia. The match was conducted by the gentle- men of the London Swimming Club, Mr Watson ( one of the members) acting as referee. The distance to be swum v as from the grating at the east end of the Sepentine, to the bridge sepa- rating Kensington- gardens, and as the time approached for the start the Serpentine presented quite a gay appearance. Shortly after seven o'clock both competitors appeared at the starting point, and, the signal having been given, both plunged simultaneously. On rising it was found that Jones had forged slightly ahead, but with a few rapid strokes Coater breasted him, and they swam head and head until opposite the Royal Humane Society's receiving house, when it was observed that Coater was slightly in advan e, and from thia point he gradually drew away from his opponent, and ultimately reaelied the bridge and came in a winner by between four and five yards, amidst the enthusiastic applause of his sup- porters. The distance was swum in 20 minutes* The stakes were at once handed over to the winning man; and so sanguine are Coater's friends of his swimming prowess, that they propose to match him for £ 100 against Mather of Manchester, who recently beat Gardner ( the London Champion) in the two mile race on the Thames at Battersea.

PENAL SERVITUDE AND TRANSPORTATION.— The royal com- missioners appointed to inquire into the operation of the Penal Servitude Acts for England and Ireland, in lieu of transportation, have completed and signed their report. It contains but 55 pages, but the evidence and various priaon returns make up two thick volumes. The commissioners are not of opinion that the want of efficiency in the present system of punishment in English oonvict prisons arises from any error of principle; they consider it mainly attributable to the shortness of the punishment, but they are of a decided opinion that the length of the sentence should not be un- alterably fixed, but that it should be of a sufficient length to admit of relaxation or remission, as the reward of industry and good conduct. " Attempts," they say, " to provide a substitute for the hope of obtaining an earlier release by granting various other ad- vantages to the prisoners,'' have not"" proved so powerful as the prospect of obtaining an abridgment of their punishment." They " think it would be right to allow convicts to earn a considerable remission of punishment." There is a variety of evidence on the subject of prison diet. 8ome_ of the parties examined thought it excessive ; others did not think it too good, " considering the labour exacted from the prisoners;" the commissioners are not, therefore, prepared to recommend posi- tively that the rations of the prisoners should be diminished. There is but one feature of the Irish system which the commis- sioners recommend as worthy of adoption in England, and that is the supervision and disposal of the convicts after liberation. " The want of any proper means for the supervision of convicts released on tieket- of- leave, and of any adequate arrangements for placing them, when their punishment is over, in a situation in which they will not be likely to return to a criminal life" they consider a great desideratum. The Discharged Prisoners' Aid Society is use- ful and important, but a department in connection with the prison would be more effective. The report recommends that English prisoners should be encouraged, on discharge, to emi- grate to a greater extent than they have hitherto done. A great deal ha3 been done in this line in connection with Irish convict prisons, and it is to this practice we must attribute the low per centage of relapses which has been taken on the whole number discharged, instead of on those who remained in the country. The latter and principal part of the report treats of transportation and the supposed necessity and advantage of sending a portion of the convicts— those with long sentences— to Western Australia. " We have already stated our opinion that all convicts sentenced for any term of years, who labour under no disqualification, ought ulti- mately to be sent to Western Australia, and we shall show here- after that the colony may, by judicious arrangements, be enabled to receive as many as there is likely to be any occasion to send from this country." HEALTH OF LONDON.— The deaths in the week ending June 27 were 1,158, being 78 below the average. The deaths from small pox have fallen to 49. From scarlatina there were 89 deaths. The births ia the week, wz? 1,025 Isoya and 931 girls— jptyl 1,959. PEDESTRIANXSM.

POST OFFICE ORDERS for Deposits, in which the EDITOR OF BELL'S LIFE IN LONDON ia made stakeholder, must be made payable to " WILLIAM CLEMENT," at the Post Office, Strand, and addressed to thia office. THE TEN MILE CHAMPION'S CUP, MB BDITOR: I have nothing to do with the attempt, if any there be, nor have I any wish to keep White of Gateshead from having a chance for the Ten Mile Champion's Cup. It is White's own fault, for if he had left a deposit with his challenge, accord- ing to the conditions, be would have had first claim. I do not see why I should be precluded from putting in my claim if White does not do so properly, and in the only way which will ensure liim having a chance, if he really wants a match. To prove, how- ever, that I for one am not afraid of White, I will agree to join with him ( White) and Lang in a sweepstakes, or I will run him any distance, from 100 yards to 20 miles, to come off at Hackney Wick at any time he may agree upon.— Yours, & c, July 3,1863. EDWARD MILLS. PEDESTRIANISM AT BOW. ANDREWS OF MILLWALL ANN BOWEN OF POPLAR,— These pe- destrians met on C. Wilson's enclosed ground, the Olympia, Bow, on Saturday, June 27, to run 100 yards, for £ 10 a side, Bowen receiving four yards. There was a strong muster of the East End division present, and a good deal of betting took place on the result, Andrews the favourite at 6 to 4. In adjusting the prelimi- naries J. Pudney was chosen referee, and all being ready the com- petitors came to the mark, when Bowen was placed the given dis- tance in advance. The pedestrians had to start by mutual consent, and after a few runs out they succeeded in getting fairly away. The issue of the struggle is soon told; Bowen maintained the lead from end to end, aud went in an easy winner. HARRISON AND BLANDFORD.— These pedestrians also ran 100 yards, for £ 10 a side, Harrison receiving two yards. The betting was to 2 to 1 on Blandford, and - J. Pudney acted as referee. The men had to go by mutual consent, but if not succeeding in getting away in fifteen minutes were to go by report of pistol. The allotted time having expired without their being able to get off, the referee was called on to appoint a starter, and he selected C. Wilson, the proprietor of the ground. After, owing to their eager impetuosity, getting away once before the proper signal had been given the pistol was fired. " Harrison on the instant daahedoffand ran over the course; Blandford, however, strangely remained on the mark, making no attempt to follow. Harrison, as may be ex- pected, claimed the stakes; and as Mr Wilson, on being appealed to by the referee, admitted the start a fair one, that functionary had nothing more to elo than confirm the decision by acknowledg- ing he was fairly entitled to the stakes. BEATON'S NOVICE AND FORSTER — These men abo ran 100 yards, for a small stake, Forster receiving four yards, which, after a well- contested struggle, was won by the Novice. PEDESTRIANISM AT BROMPTON, Some foot races took place on Saturday, June 27, at the West Brompton Cricket and Running Ground, between several young gentlemen connected with the tea trade. The course wa3 in capi- tal order, and the arrangements made by Mr J. Roberts, the pro- prietor, gave general satisfaction. We give a summary of the running:— First Race. 100 yards.— First heat: Mr Rhodes walked over.— Second heat: Mr J. Bromley 1, Mr M. Harrison 2.— Final heat: Mr Rhodes made a bad start, but caught his man at about 80 yards, and finally won by a yard.— Second Race, 250 yards.— Mr G. Carpmeal 1, Mr A. Haslam 2.— Second heat: Mr Cocks 1, Mr F. Ringer 2.— Final beat: Mr F. Ringer 1, Mr G. Carpmeal 2, Mr Cocks 3,— Third Race, 500 yards: Mr A. C. Rhodes 1, Mr Bargeman 2, Mr F. Farran 3.— One Mile Race : Mr H. L. Johnson 1, Mr Cock3 2, Mr M. Hawtry 3. Hawtry made the running at a merry pace for the first half mile, when he hung out signals of distress; Mr Johnson then crept through his men to the front, and was never again passed, going in an easy winner by about 20 yards.— After which a half- mile handicap, for money prizes, took place. There were twelve competitors, but it will suffice to say that Lake 100 yards start was first, Johns 100 second, and Wyld 100 third. Won by a yard; 10 yards between seoond and third. On Monday the ground was again well attended by the Paddington division to witness the race of 150 yards, for £ 10, between Bonser and Pearce. Mr Roberts was chosen referee, and Walford, the pedestrian, starter. Preliminaries being adjusted, the men toed their respective marks, Pearce receiving three yards start. Pearce gained half a yard in addition to the three given, and after a most determined struggle landed the winner by a foot only. An angry discussion ensued with the partisans of each man, but the referee resolutely stuck to his decision. Bets go with the stakes. SALFORD BOROUGH GROUNDS. SATURDAY, JUNE 27.— CANINE.— A dog race, for £ 10 a side, distance 200 yards, came ofi' at the above grounds this afternoon, the competitors being T. Chadwick's Blanche of Bolton and J.

B, FUSILIERS).— These two officers engaged to play the following games, which excited considerable interest in the station, shown by the number of officers who were present during the time the various contests were going on :— I. Throwing the Cricket Ball; 2. Cricket; 3. Quoits; 4. Throwing a Stone; 5. Billiards; 6. Rackets. The above matches came off as follows :— May 6: Throwing the Cricket Ball.

In addition to the above, a match at billiards and quoits was played, and won by Lieut Jervis, who appears not to have been deserted by the fickle goddess throughout.

SPORTING CHRONICLE. THE TOMATO CASE. [ LATEST EDITION.] THE TUEE. BETTING AT TATTERSALL'S. MONDAY, JUNE 29.— Me- nbers were busily employed in squaring accounts on the past week's racing, and even when the paying and receiving was brought to a close, very feeble attempts • were made to renew speculation ; for, pending the decision of the Tomato Case," further wagering was nearly paralysed. Under these circumstances it is useless to prolong remarks on the few kets laid this afternoon, for the subjoined list is for the most part compiled from single transactions or not over heavy investments. We may, however, note that Zapateado was as much inquired after as anything for the Goodwood Stakes, as Cambuscan was for next year's Derby. THURSDAY, JULY 3.— NO attendance. LIVERPOOL CUP. MONDAY.

A full meeting of the committee of the Room was held on Monday afternoon to enquire further into the above case and hear any " claims'' that might be brought forward by layers or backers — the Tribunal that adjudged the " bets ofF' altogether having on the previous Monday been pronounced " incompetent." The chair was occupied by Lord Chesterfield, while Lord West- moreland, Lord Exmouth, Admiral Rous, Colonel Higgins, Mr Payne, and Mr Greville were also present. After a lengthened deliberation, it wa3 agreed to lefer the question as to the legality of reopening the affair after the decision giving by Messrs Onslow and Sturt, to MrO'Malley, Q. C. We have again received several communications on the subject, and however some of our correspondents differ in their opinions the majority agree on one point, that it is strongly advisable to frame the rule sufficiently explicit to meet all such cases as that which has recently led to so much excitement and annoyance.

Highland Mary, 2 yrs, is by Hobbie Noble, dam by Nutwith, not by Venison, as entered by mistake at Worcester. Lord Coventry's yearling Primogeniture met with an accident a few days since, and was destroyed. The Bridgwater and West Somerset Races will take place Sept 17 and 18. Flirtation, the winner of the Chelmsford Handicap, was sold on Monday to Mr Padwick, for 520gs. Died, on the 24tli ult, Mr Samuel Dalton, of Ascot Lodge, Ascot Heath, aged 61, well- known in racing circles. The assumed names of Mr H. Joice and Mr Carrington have been registered. Walsall Races will take place on Wednesday and Thursday, Sept 23 and 24. Mr G. Oliver's grey filly by Scandal, 2 yrs, has joined WM. Bearpark's string at Middlehain. Umpire was struck out of the Worcestershire Stakes at 3: 45 p. m. on Thursday. Another draft of Lord Stamford's horses left Ilsley for New- market on Friday morning. COLOURS OF RIDERS.— Mr Gibson, green jacket, black and geld belt, black cap; Mr Joice, dark blue, red sleeves, white cap. It is in contemplation to get up a Horse Show and Sale on a grand scale at the New Agricultural Hall, Islington. Cambridge Races will take place July 23. Full particulars of stakes, & c, were advertised in our last. Wni. Smith has during the past week been making arrange- ments at Newmarket for stabling to train some of Due de Morny's horses in England, a draft of which will arrive in a few days. We are glad to say that there is no truth in the report so gene- rally circulated last week respecting the death of Captain M. AUfcyn6- We are requested to state that Cceur de Lion was scratched J une 2, at 4: 30 p. m., for the 100 sovs Plate, won by Gem of the Sea, on Thursday, June4, at Ascot; and that Atherstone was struck out of the Stewards' Plate at six o'clock the evening prior to the race. Mr T. Calder, of Worcester, has sold his yearling filly out of Guaracha ( Jordan's dam), as well as Guaracha herself, to Capt Dakin, for a stiffish price, with contingencies for the young one in the event of her turning out an Oaks winner. EGHAM MEETING.— The Runnymede Stakes and the Surrey and Middlesex Stakes close on Tuesday next, the 7th inst. The programme will be strengthened by the addition of 60 sovs to the different stakes. Mr Manning is also engaged to assist Mr Clark in the weighing room. A curious episode has followed the non sale of certain yearlings, as duly advertised to be offered on Stockbridge Race Course. Thev were never put up, and the owner has made a claim of £ 10 " compensation" from a well- known London firm not employed to conduct the business in question! Forest. Hawk, by Colonist out of Nannie, by Crozier, 3 yrs, winner last year of the Ballymanus Stakes, at the Heath cf Mary- borough, was sold by auction for 55 sovs to Michael Dunne, Esq, M. P. for the Queen's County. As a lad named Shepherd was riding Mr W . Robinson s two year old Rizzio up the tan gallop at Newmarket, on Friday morning, the horse bolted, and in endeavouring to clear a heap of earth and tan by the side of the gallop, threw a complete somersault, and fell upon the lad, and from the injuries he sustained he died about half au hour after the accident occurred. TETANUS OR LOCKJAW IN HORSES.— Several cases of this horrible affection have occurred in Kilkenny and Waterford during the past few weeks, three of which terminated fatally. Two mares, however, placed under the care of Mr Dyer, V. S., of the latter town, are both recovering, although one of them was considered hopeless by another practitioner, and recommended to be destroyed DEVON AND EXETER RACES.— We are requested to call the at- tention of owners and trainers of horses to the time of closing for the Devonshire Stakes ( 14th July), to which 100 sovs are added, the Earl of Portsmouth giving 50 sovs. The course on Haldon has been carefully attended to, and from the extensive patronage theseraces receive from the noblemen and gentlemen of the county, a good meeting is anticipated. ' THE MAINSTONE YEARLINGS.— Sir Thomas Barrett Lennard, - with the view of more thoroughly establishing the breeding of riding stock in Essex on something like a proper principle, has this year offered a silver cup for the best foal by his thorough bred stallion, Mainstone. The show for this premium was fixed for Wednesday last, at Romford, when there was not so large an entry as might have been expected. Mainstone's stock however, as thus represented, were pronounced to be generally good, and the winner of the cup, Mr Seabrook's colt, a wondertuUy well grown one, taking size and substance from his dam, and quality and action from his sire. Indeed, if the young one only goes on weli, he should make a grand weight carrying hunter. The next best was Mr Disney's, whose clever old mare, a capita* performer in her time, wa3 the first of her class at Witham the other day, but her foal was out of form, and had no life or motion about him or he might have been nearer. The experiment was alto- gether encouraging, and, under the auspices of the liberal owner of Belhus, may train on by another season into some stronger competition. Mr H. Corbet, of the Central Farmers' Club, was the judge. TO THE EDITOR OE BELL'S LIFE IN LONDON. SIR : I have taken no notice of Lord Exmouth's letter which appeared in the Murning Post until I could ascertain some neces- sary facts. It appears that Lord Exmouth lost a sum of money to Mr Christie, by all the laws of betting, on the Fernhill Stakes. On this plea he declined to act in the Tomato case, but he men- tioned to me Mr Onslow as having no bets on the race. This selection was destructive to the interests of one party, and Lord Exmouth could not have been aware that Mr Onslow had advo- cated the repudiation of all bets publicly at the Arlington Club. It was not probable, in the absence of any evidence, that he should change his opinion. Lord Exmouth's scruples to act on the 8th were modified on the 15th, when he voted that Messrs Onslow and Sturt's award should be final. If this vote had been carried he would have secured t° himself the Christie bet. In all common disputes any two or more members of the Room may decide the case; but when a great question is to be argued, involving £ 25,000, the committee alone, duly convened and numerously attended, lias the power to arbitrate; but there was no notice for a committee to attend, no case on record, and Baron Rothschild was kept in ignorance. If a member, in the absence of his colleagues, has the power to select any two subscribers to judge an important case, and to issue an edict to wipe off debts of £ 25,000, in utter violation of the rules the committee is bound in honour to steer by, the com- mittee is a farce, and no mar's property is safe. Lord Exmouth says: " The judges have come to a decision, it was announced and accepted by all as final, and the settling was brought to a close," & c. Again, " The Admiral returned among the crowd and then stated publicly that it was a most improper and illegal decision,''& c. The facts are these:— I, as the senior, refused to declare the verdict, and I protested there and then as soon as Mr Onslow had finished speaking, as fifty persons, including Mr Onslow, can testify. The very respectful protest emanating from the members © f the Rooms was simply to ask for justice according to our laws. The counter- protest by the gentlemen demanded that the decision the committee arrived at on the loth of June should be declared illegal. If any gentleman who signed this counter- protest had bets on the race in favour of the beaten horses, they put their names to a document which practically demanded an exemption from payment. When the Ascot stewards decided that Tomato won the Fern- hill, that decision secured the bets to her. The Taje and Armagnac case is totally dissimilar. I recommended the bets to be off before the race, as only those two horses ran. I could not order it in violation of Rule 4, and my recommendation, in some instances, was not attended to. A large portion of the community believe that the rules of racing were framed to encourage betting. The Jockey Club repu diates the miserable doctrine of gambling. Rule 10—" The Jockey Club, and the stewards thereof, take no cognisance of any disputes or claims with respect to bets." Mr Dorling invented the telegraph, and used it at Epsom before it was generally adopted; it is not solely for gambling purposes, but for the general edification of the public, and, save in the 36th rule, it is never mentioned in either code; and the extreme pe- nalty of omitting to put up a horse's number is £ 25, but no dis- qualification to a horse winning is thereby attached. Rule 4.—" Bets cannot be off except by mutual consent." Rule 7 gives a power to " dissolve bets if they have been made by signal or indication after the race has been determined." Again, Rule 8—" The person who lays the odds has a right to choose a horse or the field. When a person has chosen a horse the field is what starts against him." If an unexpected horse without a number wins, like Tomato, a noble lord says the bargains are de facto void. But, whether the numbers appear or do not, there is no law to disqualify the win- ner or to annul the bets. " Iniquum petas ut ceqicum feras'' is bad in theory, detestable in practice. The noble lord's argument throughout is that it is necessary to defend the rights of the gen. tlemen bettors. Let us look on the other side. How often is the Ring thrown over by the favourite's number vanishing before the race, and the bettors are left with a book by which they must lose and cannot win? For the Burgh Stakes, at Epsom, Hypatia's number was up by mistake. The Ring took 6 and 7 to 4 she did not win. On the strength of this field money they laid 5 to 1 against Blanche of Lancaster. Hypatia's number was taken down, and the field's men were put in the hole. With respect to Rule 2, if a horse is falsely engaged, like New- castle at York in 1859, and Starlight at Newmarket in 1861— the first w< as named for the Hopeful, which was for horses which never won, although he was at that time a winner ; Starlight for a Fifty Sovs Sweepstakes for horses not engaged in the Two Thousand Guineas or Newmarket Stakes, and he had been entered for both ; but as the objectious were not made till after they had won, the second horses got the stakes and the winners the bets. This was in accordance with the old Rule 18, revised in 1857, and inserted in the Betting Rule 2. " This objection made after the race" was to defend the very numerous body of non- thinkers; otherw ise the enlightened might win any sum of money without risk if the horse which came in first was disqualified from re- ceiving the bets. Knowsley's case was different, because he was otherwise disqualified by the laws of racing. The celebrated case in 1829 of Rasselas, decided by the Jockey Club, was an erroneous verdict, because the nominator was known to be a corpse in the town of Bath before the Somersetshire Stakes was run. I have no interest in this wretched squabble beyond an earnest desire that justice should be done. On one side are my numerous and particular friends, on the other side the Ring, with whom I have no other tie than mutual respect for fair and honourable dealings.— I am, sir, your obedient servant, Berkeley- square, July 2. H. J. Rous. THE KNOWSLEY AND TOMATO CASES. TO THE EDITOR OF BELL'S LIFE IN LONDON. SIR : From the opinion given by Admiral Rous in his letter ad- dressed to you on the 26th ult on the Knowsley and Umpire case, & c, you appear to think the matter settled. In this several of the racing community differ with you, on the ground that the Admiral, even with the assistance of his brother stewards, is an incompetent tribunal to decide such a case, not having the authority of the Jockey Club to do so. It is pretty well understood that some members of that body are of opinion that the objection ought to have been made by Lord Coventry not a quarter of an hour after the race, but before'the termination of the meeting; and as there is to be a meeting of the Jockey Club next week, surely it would be better to have the case before it, as they would in all probability have had had the race been won by any one who does not consider the objection was made in time, and have a decision which would be final. If allowed to remain as it is there may be in a little time with diff erent stewards a different opinion given, involving, per- haps, another £ 15,000 in bets. An objection has been raised to the re- opening of the Tomato case when a rule of betting, not a disputed bet, is in question. With all due deference to those who raise it, they cannot deny that the committee alone have the power to de- cide such a case, and if a sufficient number were not present it ought to have been postponed until they were summoned; instead of which, without the consent or knowledge of a very large ma- jority of the room deeply interested, two gentlemen are called in contrary to their rules, and it is expected that their decision is to be quietly submitted to, well knowing that if a similar case was to," occur next week it would be reversed. Pray would the J ockey Club acquiesce in any erroneous decision given by their stewards on an important rule without their authority ? It would be a similar case. The laws of racing and betting, as in equity, are framed on common sense and j ustice, and decisions to stand must be given accordingly.— Yours, & c, July 1,1863. A MEMBER OF TATTERSALL'S. THE LATE IPSWICH MEETING. LADY DERBY AND DEERFOOT. MR EDITOR : The stakes of the Borough Members' Plate at Ipswich, which, after the dead heat between Lady Derby and Deerfoot, were given to the former by an extraordinary decision of the two Stewards upon the ground of an alleged " cross," will now have to be refunded, it being discovered that Lady Derby carried 71b short of her proper weight, she having claimed the allowance of 71b for having started three times in 1862 or 1863 without win- ning, whereas she w on three times in 1862 ! According to the Admiral's letter in your last, an objection on the ground of car- rying improper maiden allowance can be brought forward any time within twelve months.— Yours, & c, THE OWNER OF DEERFOOT. THE NEWMARKET JULY MEETING. THE SHRUBLAND PARK STAKES. MR EDITOR: On the first day of the above races seven horses were entered for the Shrubland Park Stakes. Capt Fitzgerald, the reputed owner of the first horse ( Charybdis), declared he had a certificate of his horse being qualified to run, according to the conditions of the entry. I beg to hand you the letter of Captain Barlow.— Yours, & c, Miss ALICE. P. S. Capt Fitzgerald was one of the Stewards, and claimed the stakes. A protest was entered before starting, but not entertained, nor was the one after the race. St Matthew, Ipswich, July 2, 1863. Mr Ashford, the owner of Charybdis. is r. ot a subscriber to the Woodland Harriers ; nor was Charybdis hunted with them at all in the season 1862- 3. F. BARLOW. June 26, 1863. A SALUTARY SUGGESTION- TO THE EDITOR OF BELL'S LIFE IN LONDON. SIR : Allow me to draw your attention to a very great evil growing up on the Turf, which, if not suppressed, will lead to a similar scene of riot to that which occurred at Doncaster in 1829 on the suppression of the gambling booths and thimble- rigging, and that is, the impunity with which the Welshing fraternity carry on their vile practices, their numbers increasing weekly from success. It may be said that a matter of this kind is net within the notice of the Jockey Club, but I contend that every- thing is which either detracts or tends to promote sport, or add to the proper and orderly conduct of race meetings, where people assemble for pleasure or business, now not unfre- quently interrupted by a disgusting row and fight; and to show how easily and quickly they can carry out any improve- ment they think proper to introduce, I need only mention their new claiming rule on selling races, when they refused to recog- nise meetings or handicap horses run under the old one. The con- sequence was, it was immediately adopted at every meeting; therefore, I beg to suggest that they authorise their stew- ards to confer with the managers of the principal meetings, and agree to a small extra charge, say 6d on a daily and Is on a weekly ticket, which would raise an immense fund, and enable them to appoint an active officer, with four or five assistants, whose sole duty it should be to attend meetings that contribute to the fund, which might be placed in the hands of Messrs Weatherby, they being in communication with all the different managers, who should have the power of engaging officers of the detective force when required. So far from antici- pating anv objection to this scheme, I think every race- goer— bar the Welshers— would pay the small charge with pleasure, and all managers gladly consent to its introduction, as it would entail no extra expense, relieve them of a considerable deal of annoy- ance, and very probably add to their funds, by increased numbers; and it would also be a cheek on fellows who make a practice of trying to get two passes when there is sometimes a rush on to the course after a race, or on the clearing of it, avoid giving it up, which they hand or sell to an acquaintance, who is afterwards free for the day, doubtless trying the same thing; this system is carried on to a very large extent at crowded meetings. All bad or doubtful characters can be refused admittance to any enclosure, and expelled, if they get in by accident, provided proper means are used. At the late Chelmsford Meeting Welshers and pickpockets by dozens were in the enclosure, also in the trains to and fro. Had there been an officer or two in attendance, not one in all probability would have been seen, much to the comfort of some old regular race- goers, who were unfortunately relieved of their watches. The presence of officers would not only be beneficial to race- attenders, but also to the proprietors of race horses, as it is notorious that certain men go from place to place for the sole purpose of tampering with stable boys, and may be seen in every enclosure; also prowl- ing about on the Heath at Newmarket, the first at the place, and the last to leave it,- Yours, & c, AN OLD TURFITE. July 3,1863, There is nothing whatever to mar the success of the July Meet- ing at head- quarters, which has all the forthcoming week to itself, and every opportunity will be afforded of displaying whether the extension of the meeting to four days is a step in the right di- rection. The proceedings will be " big with the fate" of many a Derby favourite, the entries for the two year old contests being of the most magnificent character; and if the present appearance of the programme is skeleton- like, good sport should be got out of the twenty- eight items that make it up, supposing there are not many failures among the score of minor plates and sweepstakes to enter forthe evening before running. The Beaufort Stakes, a handi- cap with £ 200 added, is the new feature for the extra day, and it gives promise of an interesting struggle, as does also Wednesday's feature, theStamford Plate; but the July and Chesterfield threaten put them both quite in the shade, and Tuesday s race will be a little Derby, the quality of the probable competitors being above the average stamp, from^ all accounts, and the prize is such a rich one— representing fully fifteen hundred guineas— that the muster at the post is certain to be a strong one. The Chesterfield, too, will prove worth some twelve hundred guineas, and the course is such a different one that there is little to fear in regard to its " big brother" spoiling it. The July Stakes will be contested on Tuesday, and the declara- tions of forfeit only numbering four as yet, there are forty- four bond fide candidates, this lot comprising seventeen that have been in public, viz:— Scottish Chief, Midnight Mass, Becky Sharpe, Crytheia, Alpheus, Master Richard, Dispute, Syren, the colt by Saunterer out of Caliiope, Battaglia, the colt by Skir- misher out of Queen Lily, Aunt Judy, the colt by Toxophilite out of Miss Sarah, the Golden Ball, Blair Hill, the colt by New- minster out of Plush, and Langholm. The form of these is pretty well known, that of the two first named being indisputably the best, and if the Chief is overthrown we must not look for his con- queror in the above lot, for Becky Sharpe, Crytheia, Alpheus, Master Richard, Syren, and the Calliope colt are not of first- class quality, respectably as they have figured; and Dispute, Battaglia, and the Queen Lily colt signally failed to sustain the reputations they went to Ascot with. Scottish Chief, on the contrary, accom- plished all that was asked of him, arid if there happened to be no- thing of first- rate calibre behind, the style in which he won his race was in the highest degree satisfactory. Another strong ar- gument in his favour is the heavy amount of money " the party" put on him for the Derby beforehand, and M. Dawson having tried him to be one of the best two year olds he ever trained, he is certain to prove himself one, for his trainer cannot be accused of having made many mistakes during his career. Consequently the individual will be fortunate who can find one to beat him on Tuesday next, although it is more than possible there is some- thing uncommonly good comprised in the following twenty- eight " dark" candidates :— Mr Bowes's Claremont, a bay colt by De Clare out of Auld Acquaintance; Sir J. Hawley's Beloochee, a bay colt by Stockwell out of Meeanee; Sir J. Haw- ley's Rapidan, a brown filly by Beadsman out of Miami ; Baron Rothschild's bay colt by Fazzoletto out of Calista; Mr Woolcott's Mamhead, a brown colt by Gemma di Vergy out of Ballerino's dam; Mr J. Scott's Marabout, a bay colt by Voltigeur out of Trickstress; Lord Stamford's Cambuscan, achesnut colt by Newminster out of The Arrow; Lord Stamford's Yamuna, a chesriut filly by Orlando out of Himalaya; Lord Stamford's Ma- hometan, a brown colt by Jordan out of Blondelle; Mr Night's Guardsman, a brown colt by Voltigeur out of Distaffina; Mr Night's Rosalie, a bay filly by Voltigeur out of Rosaline ; Capt Lamb's Eleanor, a brown Ally by Gemma di Vergy out of Beauty; Duke of Beaufort's Black Rock, a black colt by Kingstown out of Miss Slick ; Duke of Beaufort's Moscow, a bay colt by Muscovite, dam by Nutwith; Mr W. S. Crawfurd's Wild Basil, a brown colt by Wild Dayrell out of Andover's dam ; Sir H. Des Vceux's bay colt by Muscovite out of Bridle; Mr Drake's bay or brown filly by Gemma di Vergy out of Eugenie; Lord Exeter's Alliance, a bay colt by Ambrose out of Assiduity; Lord Exeter's Auricula, a brown filly by Ambrose out of Pocahontas; Mr Fleming's Eaton, a bay colt by Newcourt out of Manuella; Mr Henry's Rouge Crosse, a chesnut filly by Hobbie Noble out of Ellen Home; Mr Savile's chesnut colt by Fandango out of Bucken- ham's dam; General Shirley's Ferdinand, a bay colt by Fan- dango out of Miss Julia Bennett; Mr E. Thomas's Handley Cross, a bay colt by Leamington out of Queen's Head ; Colonel Towneley's Ellerby, a brown colt by West Australian out of Ellermire; Lord Uxbridge's Sir John, a brown colt by Gemma di Vergy out of Olympias; and Mr J. Wyatt's Boadicea ( sister to Nutbourne), a chesnut filly by Nabob out of Princess. Some of the above were run up to high prices at the yearling sales of last year, and Beloochee fetched 660gs, Yainuna 600gs, Mamhead 550gs, Cam- buscan 400gs, Guardsman 350gs, Mahometan 330gs, Marabout 330gs, Sir John 300g3, Handley Cross 180gs, and Rosalie lOOgs; while at the sale of Capt Hawkesley's stud a few weeks back, Eleanor went for 330gs, and since he was knocked down Cam- buscan was disposed of to Lord Stamford for, it is said, a pretty stiff'sum. Heavy figures have not been a good criterion to follow this season, for it happens unfortunately that King John, who was run up to the extraordinary price of l, 200gs at public auc- tion last summer, is unable to fulfil any of his two year old en- gagements, in addition to which the 560- guinea Battaglia cut up a rank jade at Ascot, and the 420- guinea Alpheus only ran respect- ably. Still Cambuscan, Beloochee, and Mamhead are rumoured to have done " good things" at home, and if we can believe in Cambuscan's private performance he must be a dangerous anta gonist for the Scottish Chief to meet, as a horse a stone better than Leicester must be A1. And yet we should prefer to have seen Leicester figure at Worcester, where he had a comparatively easy task to perform. The Calista colt and Claremont have been backed for the Derby to win lumps of money, and may prove as dangerous as Cambus can, even supposing the latter to be so much the best of Lord Stamford's two year olds; and there are others in the " dark'' list with pedigrees that would take them into any society. But even supposing Beloochee, the Calista colt, Mamhead, Cambuscan, and Claremont were all to do battle for the maidens, a horse like the Scottish Chief, who has covered a severe T. Y. C. in public without turning a hair, must be prefer- able to the best of them, and the most w e can anticipate is that the Calista colt or Cambuscan may obtain the measure of him. The match between Umpire and Wingraveis only a question of the former trying, for he has something like 91b the best of the weights; and as he managed to win his races at Worcester, we may be justified in standing hiin. A 50 sovs Sweepstakes, on the Suffolk Stakes Course, is entirely between Blue Mantle and the Brother to Morocco, and the former ran so badly at Ascot that the issue should result in favour of the Baron's improving colt. The Midsummer Stakes is another three year old contest, but of no importance, and the fact of Sea King having the worst of the weights with nearly everything likely to oppose him can hardly prevent him winning. The Exeter Stakes, decided on the second day, will not depend much on the result of the July, Crytheia, Alliance, and Yamuna only being engaged in the two; and it is a question whether the best of the trio will be able to contend against such a pair as Evelina ( sisterto Queen of the Vale) and Durham. Crytheia will be at home on the half mile, and Diomed, who ran second to Molly Carew at Epsom, in the Spring, will likewise take his own part. War Dance ( a promising colt, who ran ia backward con- dition at the Epsom Summer Meeting), the good- looking La Belle Feronniere, Woodcraft, and Hvpatia, comprise the remain- ing public horses engaged; and there are, besides Alliance and Yamuna, seven " dark' candidates, asunder:— Couut Batthyany's Nucleus, a chesnut colt by Nutwith out of Besika ; the Duke of Beaufort's Esperance, a bay filly by Voltigeur out of Eispeth; Mr Greville's Lady Caroline, a bay filly by Orlando out of Lady Blanche; Count Lagrange's Royal Navarre, a chesnut colt by Monarque out of Liouba ; Gen Shirley's Waldegrave, a bay colt by Ellington out of Princess, by Iago; Mr Watt's Gondola, a brown filly by Weatherbit out " of Gaiety; and Lord Wilton's Wandering Minstrel, a bay colt by Fandango out of Gadabout. The two latter, bred by Sir C. Monck, were so much admired at York last August, that they fetched 420gs and 400gs respectively; and supposing them to swell the field with Yamuna, Diomed, War Dance, one of the Frenchmen, and Crytheia, it must not be booked a certainty for either Durham or Evelina, as all but Crytheia, Hypatia, and Woodcraft take a 31b maiden allowance. It is a fine shave between Evelina and Durham, seeing the filly carried a 51b penalty and beat Vacuna a head at Ascot, and that at Stockbridge the latter was beaten a clever three- parts of a length from Durham ; still Vacuna should have beaten the Baron's filly, and Durham is so racing- like that he is deserving of confidence, perhaps, in the best of company; and there may be nothing good enough to lower his colours in this field. The Stamford Plate is a six furlong spin, for horses of all ages, with 28 candidates, whose weights, taking into consideration all penalties and allowances, are as follow: i st lb K. of Diamonds. S,. 9 Stradella 4.. 9 Argonaut 4.. 9 Lady Clifden .. 5.. 9 Carisbrook .... 4.. 9 Alvediston .... 4.. 9 Birdhill 4.. 9 Peignoir 4.. 9 Miss Living- stone 4.. 9 The course being age stlb Vivid 3.. 8 9 Summerslde .. 3.. 8 9 Black Rock .. .. 2.. 6 7 Dispute 2. .6 7 C by Newmins- ter— Plush .. 2..

Whatever that one is, however, may just beat him, good horse as he is, for Capt Christie's mare was always invincible over her own course ( a T. Y. C.) at fair weights, and his Majesty prefers spme- thing nearer a mile. The Chesterfield will depend in a great measure on the result of the July, although the conditions are totally different, winners of 500 sovs being penalised 71b, and the distance is only half a mile. There are fifty- four engaged, of which twenty- one are also in the July, viz:— Scottish Chief ( 71b extra), Crytheia ( 71b extra), Master Richard, Syren, the colt by Saunterer out of Calliope, Dispute, Becky Sharpe, Aunt Judy, Golden Ball, Black Rock, Beloochee, Eleanor, Rapidan, Rouge Crosse, Cam- buscan, Rosalie, the colt by Fazzoletto out of Calista, Yamuna, Boadicea, Mamhead, and Handley Cross. Even supposing Scottish Chief to win the July Stakes, he is not bound to repeat the dose administered to all that may oppose him, there being no penalties for second, as in former times, and should anything run him close the tables are not unlikely to be turned. We know nothing definite concerning either of the thirty- three candidates not in the July, of which only Alabama, Brother Jonathan, Hypatia, Roundhead, Annington, the filly by Fandango out of Gossamer, Ali Pasha, Lady Hylda, Coimbra, Demon, and Sugarcane have been in public ; but we may venture to assert that the best of these will not trouble the Chief, even with a 71b : advantage in the weights, and it is likewise probable that the July I cracks will supply more than onerepresentativegood enough to keep in check the twenty- two " dark" fresh competitors, of which the following is the list:— Lord Ailesbury's Michael, a bay colt by Orlando out of Muscovite's dam ; Mr J. Day's Waveney, a brown filly by Vedette out of Bay Rosalind ; Sir H. Des Vceux's brown colt by Wild Dayrell out of Agra ; Mr Elphinstone's Rizzio, abay colt by Orlando out of Braxey ; Lord Strathmore's Armadillo, a brown colt by Ambrose out of Miss Stamford ; Mr Fleming's An- nona, a bay filly by Newcourt out of Nuneaton ; Lord Glasgow's bay colt by Toxophilite out of Senorita; Mr Greville's Brada- mante, a black filly by Voltigeurout of Doralice; Sir J. Hawley's Washington, a chesnut colt by Charleston out of Languish ; Mr Jaques's Appenine, a chesnut colt by Weatherbit out of Rosati; MrG. Lambert's Empress, a bay filly by King Tom out of Ma Mie ; Mr Naylor's Fitz- Adine, a bay colt by Oi landc out of Adine; Mr Harlock's Little Gentleman, a bay colt by Orlando out of a sister to Little Lady ; Mr T. Parr's Hopper, a bay filly by Mil- dew out of Hopbine; Mr Payne's chesnut colt by Idle B03- out of Redbreast; Mr I. Sadler's bay colt by Happy Land out of Testy ; Mr Savile's brown colt by Skirmisher out of Mantilla ; General Shirley's Belgium, a bay colt by Vandermeulin out of Violet Fane ; Lord Stamford's Lady of Eltham, a bay filly by Kingston out of Countess; Lord Stamford's Galileo, a bay colt by Hes- perus out of Teetotum; Colonel Towneley's Scarlet Runner, a bay filly by Orlando out of Haricot; and Mr York's Fleet- wood, a bay colt by Blackthorn, dam by Joe Lovell. Eight of the above figured at the yearling sales of 1862, when Fitz- Adine went for 310gs, Galileo for 300gs, Lady of Eltham for 270gs, Armadillo for 250gs, Waveney for 200gs, Michael and Rizzio " for 160gs each, and The Little Gentleman for 105gs ; and Galileo was " highly commended," being out of Asteroid's dam. However, Lord Stamford has Cambuscan to represent him here; and looking at the pretensions of Scottish Chief, Beloochee, and the Calista colt also, we dare not anticipate the success in the Chesterfield of any candidate not engaged in the July, the result of which contest will better display who is the most trustworthy of the above quartet, than any judgment that might be formed now. The Beaufort Handicap weights have been so well adjusted that at least half the twenty subscribers ought to figure at the post, for Chere Amie( 6 yrs, 7st 61b) is not so well treated as would appear at first sight, seeing how close Warminster finished to her at YVorcester, when conceding 71b, which will make Buckenham ( 4 yrs, 8st) look equally ( tempting, for his form this year has been decidedly superior to Warminster's. Mr Savile has also Harlequin ( 4 yrs, 7st 91b) to represent him, and he appears very favourably weighted when we take into consideration how he stuck to Wingrave in a race across the flat at Newmarket First Spring, when receiving 91b only. Argonaut ( 4 yrs, 7st 121b) is let so well in, probably, on the speculation that he will not get the distance, which is just the cut of Stockinger ( 4 yrs, 6st 131b) the recently- named Lady Evelyn colt. The Monk ( 6 yrs, 7st 131b) declined a much easier task at Newcastle; and we may thus de- pend on Mr Savile beating all the heavy weights with either Buckingham or Harlequin, while Chere Amie should dispose of all the others, favourably weighted as is Deception ( 3 yrs, 5st 71b) a Bister to The Knave, who has been only once in public. " A chiel's amang ye takin' note3, and faith he'll prent ' em. Six years' statistical matter involves time, labour, and care to disembowel it from the tomb of the past with careful revision and handling, to imbue it with that vitality which makes it the active agent of pleasurable reading to some, and a " finger post" for the guidance of others. In lightly cantering o'er the course of time, it is hoped that the evidence adduced in the previous and present article will be found sufficiently voluminous to indicate the status of the Turf in Scotland, and show the " canny Scotch" the claim it has on their suffrages. Healthy symptoms of position and popularity of any meeting are best evidenced by sagely placing the finger on the amount of added money, for the purse is the pulse of racing; it represents the " guinea stamp" of position, progress, and the quantity and quality of the horses brought to the " post.'' These statistics are based on the value in actual specie, as it is impossible to estimate the amount in cups, purses, and bonuses, when the value of each is of such a questionable nature that the clerks of the courses very modestly decline to give succinct state- ments of their worth. It would almost appear that racing in Scotland was af- flicted with some chronic affection of the Limited Lia- bility Act, for in all its length and breadth there are only six places where " legitimate'' racing is upheld, viz, Kelso, Edinburgh, Western Meeting ( Ayr), Perth, Lanark, and Airdrie- Weatherby gives more, but that includes Paisley and such minor affairs as Barrhead, & c. The former has been defunct since 1857' when the course ( private property) was for some reason or other taken out of the hands of the committee, and turned into " fresh fields and pastures new" by the aid of the plough and the desire of the owner. There have only been small meetings here since that period, which do not call for statistical comment; but it is pleas- ing to record that there is a desire to give a renewal of the plea, sures they formerly enjoyed, as the officials there notify a two days meeting for 1863, and they have the cordial wishes of sports- men that it may prove equal to the old regime. Barrhead, by some unaccountable means, secured a place in the Calendar, but it would really be an advisable step in the right direction if that so- called meeting, and those equally unhappy in their worthless no- toriety, were consigned to oblivion, and merged into those per- taining to, or having some claims to, the legitimate purpose of the Turf. It is one of the hopeful ideas tending to a successful future that their promoters will take to this suggestion " kindly," and by amalgamation with others gain united strength, and produce a more tempting bill of fare, and let the thorough bred weedy screws for which such races are apparently framed join issue with the collar and the cabmen, and trot out their sphere of uselessness in the shafts. During the past six years the total amount of added money at the six places before mentioned is only £ 14,231; this gives a general average for all Scotland of £ 2,372 per annum, or £ 2,362 per annum for the years 1857- 8- 9, and £ 2,383 for the corresponding period in 1860 61- 62. Twenty- one " sovs" only represent the pro" gression betwixt the last and previous three years. It is eviden1 there is a rotten core somewhere, and therefore it involves a dis" agreeable necessity while searching for the kernels of truth and progress to lay bare the decaying portions, with the hope that the process of decay may be arrested, and " a clean bill of health" produced for the future. Kelso, under the praiseworthy zeal and skilful resurrectionist hands of Mr John Usher, who some years ago resuscitated its larvse- like remains from the winding- sheet of obscurity, now gaily assumes the lead with an average of £ 683 and sixty- five horses to the post to each meeting during the last three years, and a 700- pounder average and sixty- eight horses for the previous three, thanks to the princely generosity and patronage of the Duke of Roxburglie ( may his shadow never be less), who gives £ 200, the course, and pays advertising and all general expenses. It will thus be observed that Kelso for the past six years " pursues the even tenor of its way" with scarcely noticeable variation. Edinburgh, the aristocratic region of the north, has in addition to regular meetings occasional " gatherings," such as the quiet Yeomanry and Mussleburgh fair ; the latter are of such a minor character that it is unnecessary to honourthem with a place in the present record, and the former of course partakes more of a private nature for Paterfamilias and Co, to try their " prentice hand" in a spin on the flat, and give us creditable mimicry of the professional. It is satisfactory to observe that the Lothians Racing Club have this year with considerable spirit and good nature taken the Spring Meeting into their own lap, and weaned it from its lowly state and stunted growth to an established healthy position and positiverespectability; it may therefore safely be predicted that the little meeting is destined to become one of the most fashionable re- unions of the North, but even under the favourable auspices which it has this session been ushered before us, it is a bantling that will require long and careful nursing in the lap of its foster parents before it grows into anything like massive proportions. But what of the past— the " figgers ?" Well, then, in 1857- 8- 9 Edinburgh has the paltry average of £ 483 and 58 horses per meet- ing, while in the last three years we collect from Weatherby the pleasing sum " tottle ( as Joseph Hume would say)'' of £ 1,805, or an average of £ 601 and 67 horses. It will thus be observed that although a long way behind Kelso in the first half, it is making rapid strides to public favour in the latter ; and although the Duke and that true sportsman " the resurrectionist" appear to have the best of it on paper, they will have to " sit down" to their hobby and " go on," or the veteran captain and " Jemmy'' will secure the pride of place for " The City." The meetings here latterly are remarkable for showing more im- provement than any other in Scotland. As an illustration, the Royal Caledonian Hunt, Lothians, and Edinburgh had in added money £ 780 in 1857 against £ 850 in 1861; and while the Lothians Racing Club and Edinburgh meetings were respectively credited with £ 305 and £ 365 in 1858- 59 there was £. 395 and £ 560 in 1861- 62, the latter more than double that of the former, and the favourable slice of nearly a " century" in the other instance; and as addi- tional evidence of increased popularity with the public generally, the Grand Stand receipts for 1861- 62 were more than double those of 1857- 58. This very creditable state of affairs must certainly, in a great measure, be attributed to the warm interest, ability, and praiseworthy exertions of the two years' official services of Mr James Turner, the respected clerk of the course, and his chef, Capt Harrison, who may appropriately be termed the Admiral Rous of Scotland, both of whom appear determined, by their well- directed efforts, to raise racing there to a higher standard of excel- lence, and make the " grey capital of theNorth'' as much a focus of attraction for its racing carnivals as it is for its architectural beauty and scenic magnificence. It is thus gratifying to observe that " things are looking up'' somewhere, and here in particular, and under present auspices are likely to do so. Certainly there should be no lack of funds, for irrespective of the " diggins" that have previously yielded addtd money, there are other fields that yet require to be opened upbytheC. C. and put in the miners' cradle and " sifted '' for the glittering specs they most certainly contain. For instance, there are two members for the city, one for the county, and one for the Leith burghs; surely there is a nice little " nugget" to be dug out of the pockets of the four, which might be melted dawn and worked into an eleeant object of art, bearing the pleasing inscription " Members' Plate.'' Mr Merry, Mr Cochrane, and Mr Stirling set the example, and also, as there are precedents for stewards' cups being raised at other meetings, cannot there be one here' Again, Ayr and some other meetings receive plates or valuable equivalent from the railway companies on the " gift gaff" princi- ple; the North British and other lines should therefore not be behindhand with a plate or subscription for Edinburgh, for they receive equally unquestionable benefits. The volunteer officers at Lanark get credit of giving a £ 50 cup to be run for there. Edin- burgh can surely compete with them and make as big a score. Will Capt Campbell and his '* brothers in arms " put their heads together and do what they can to secure the " root of all evil" for the good cause ? The inhabitants of Musselburgh are almost incorrigible ; they derive immense profit from the meetings held there, and sub- scribe— what? positively not a " fiver." There is certainly no charge made for the use of the course, but the fees for weighing, stands for carriages, and ground for booths is a very handsome rental, a per centage of which might with justice be handed over with a pleasurable smile to the race fund, and the inhabitants of " the guid auld toun" might subscribe a something as an acknow- ledgment of past and future favours. With such aids the officials would then be enabled to raise the value of the stakes, and make the usual meetings nearly as great and as good as they are when held in combination with the Royal Caledonian Hunt; this would have the effect of bringing that quantity and quality of horses to the post, and make racing more popular with the people generally. Che Western Meeting ( Ayr) next claims monetary precedence with the average of £ 286 and 33 horses per meeting for 1857, ' 58, ' 59, and £ 403 and 47 starters for the last three years. The six years statistical matters contrast unfavourably against Ayr when mea- sured with Kelso and Edinburgh, for while the latter two have had the monetary aid of the Caledonian Hunt for two years during that period, Ayr has only received such favourable consideration once. It is, however, necessary to offer the suggestion that there is here wide room for improvement, for, irrespective of the posi- tion which unity with the Caledonian Hunt gives, there is a very decided decrease in value in their ordinary meetings, beginning with £ 320 in 1857, and ending with £ 250 in 1862. Permit the sug- gestion that the remedy is in their own hands, and that they will make the figures " stand out in bold relief for the future. Fluctuating Lanark next claims attention, with £ 1,711 for six years, making the average £ 275 and 34 horses in the first three years, against £ 295 and 48 horses in the last three. Although a " couple of tenners" only divide the averages, the term fluctuating is quite justifiable, for the monetary value is " in and out, like a dog in a fair." In 18- 57 it jauntily leads off with its highest sum of £ 326, and in 1859 succumbs to the light burden of £ 235 ; while again, in 1S62, it does the semi- respectable with £ 290. Mr John Currie, theC. C., has hitherto fought an uphill game, and we trust the committee will join him more cordially in the management, go in with renewed assiduity for the attainment of higher honour this session, and, with a renewal of the 50 sovs aid they formerly received from the Duke of Hamilton, run a severe race with Ayr for pride of place. Airdrie next enters the lists with £ 1,615 for six years, viz, £ 865 for the first half, and £ 750 for the latter, showing a depreciation of £ 115 on the latter period, and £ 19 deficiency per meeting, or a general average per annum of £ 268, and 37 horses. This is a min- ing district with coal pits in the vicinity, the seams of which are nearly exhausted; the decadence therefore may be attributable to this, thereby causing capital and labour, to he diverted into other channels. It is said that " when matters come to the worst they begin to mend," let us hope that the time has arrived for realising the truth of the adage. The Messrs Baird, of Gartsherrie, give the lease of the course for a nominal rentage, and Mr John Watson, theC. C., has a warm interest in the success of racing generally and of his own meeting in particular, surely then there are some ( irrespective of the provost and baillie?) still left, who have the ability, desire, and disposition to lend him a helping hand, and prevent premature decay. Perth would have undoubtedly taken a higher position than Airdrie, but for the fact that although the programme for 1862 was duly advertised it was subsequently withdrawn, owing to the decease of some of the relatives of noblemen there, chief pro- moters of the sport, the sum total of £ 1,405 for six years ( or rather five) therefore contrasts unfavourably with othermeetingsof similar calibre; the average of such five years is £ 287 and 47 horses. It will be satisfactory to know that it will continue to receive the same supporting aid that it formerly received. Kelso, Edinburgh, Lanark, and Airdrie have all permanent bond fide clerks " of the course nominated, and we offer the suggestion that this meeting and Ayr would probably derive adventitious aids if properly qua- lified working C. C.' s were appointed there to aid the hunt se- cretaries. The " still small hours of the morning'' have closed upon my labours, but before laying aside the pen it is desirable that the suggestive question should be put— Why are there seventeen royal plates given to Ireland and thirty- one in England, while poor Scotland receives only two, viz, one for the Royal Caledonian Hunt, and the other for Edinburgh ? This is another vexata questio that might in all justice and fairness be laid before the " powers that be," and settled at the same time as the question for " precedence." There is another funny peculiarity, and that is Her Majesty's Guineas for the Caledonian Hunt represent a value of £ 105, whereas the guineas given to the Edinburgh meet- ing is neither 100 guineas nor 100 sovs, for it is only £ 9S 16s 6d. Is there any one to be found sufficiently conversant with " Cocker" and a knowledge of the value of a guinea to say why this is so ? Racing in Scotland has hitherto been chiefly upheld by trades- men, many of whom could ill afford the expenses involved by keeping horses in training, but, to their honour be it said, they have nobly struggled against the tide, and done their best to up- hold the sport; let others now cordially enter into the good cause, and make the stagnant pools of inaction become flowing streams of success. Horses marked * are in the Derby, t in the Oaks, I in the Leger. WORCESTER SUMMER RACES. Stewards: Earl of Coventry, Earl of Westmoreland, and Admiral Rous. Hon Clerk of the Course: Mr W. Webb. Judte: Mr Johnson. Starter: Mr T. Marshall. The Worcester committee cannot be thought behind the age in catering for the public. For example, they extended their pro- gramme of the Summer meeting to fifteen races, and as an attrac- tion to owners of horses, they added to the first day a new race for two year olds, to which the liberal sumof 100 sovs was given. Never- theless, the meeting did not draw anything like the drove of tho- rough breds which we have seen on Pitchcroft, and it is rather puz- zling to account for the fact. It has been suggested that the very restricted acceptance for the Worcestershire Stakes has had much to do with cutting down the number of horses that showed on Thurs- day last, and the faltering in the acceptance is accounted for by supposing that the handicaps coming out so close upon the meet, ing, and so long after the entry, sifts the performers down to the minimum. It is evident that what all the animals engaged in the entry can do has been completely gauged by their trainers, and their forms become a matter on which those interested can have no doubt, so that, unless the handicapper should miraculously have brought the impost on each particular horse into perfect equili- brium with that of every other in the race, it is reasonable to imagine that only the very" few believed by those in the secret to have a chance will be left in. This may be a solution of the un- pleasant fact, and if so, it is easy to try the other tack. Happily the Worcester managers are just the sort of administrators not to be beaten if defeat can be avoided by pluck and experience; and the little halt in the gaitof their progress, if we accept the ' dimi- nution in their field as such, will, we feel assured, only stimulate them to renewed exertion. The meeting, considered apart from the phases of the telegraph board, was, as usual, very enjoyable, and the attendance on all partsof thecourse quiteuptotheaverage! So far as affording sport to thousands, notwithstanding every drawback, the present meeting was as successful as if the prin- cipal handicap had been graced by the presence of the lot accept- ing instead of rather more than one- third. In the weather, sum- mer and spring, April and July, were commingled, a slight shower now and then keeping things constantly fresh, while a pleasant treeze agreeably tempered the air. Pretty as the race course always looks on race days, it surpassed it- self on this occasion. The turf had been newly mown and was beautifully green ; and here we notice with commendation an alteration effected at a large expense, by the filling up of an unsightly ditch, that formerly ran down the centre of the meadow for two- tliirds of its entire length. In the spring this was converted into a covered pipe drain, and, newly turfed, greatly improved the surface ot the plain. As usual, the straight run in had been carefully treated. It was mown nearly a month ago, in the hope that rain would fall and revivify the grass, which expectation was most amply fulfilled, and between the attention bestowed in this and other respects,' the running ground was in splendid condition. That excellent patron of the meeting, Lord Coventry, brought a distin- guished party each day from Croome, including Prince Solty- koff, VLcount Canterbury, Lord Andover, Lord Strathmore, Lord Courtenay, Earl Winchilsea, Colonel Forester, Colonel Bailey] Admiral Rous, Mr Ten Broeck, Mr Payne, & c. The Earl of Stam • ford was also present, being the first appearance here of the head of that noble house for nearly forty years, and the fact was very grateful to the citizens of Worcester, some of whom can still remember the grandfather of the present earl one of the chief sup- porters of these meetings. Financially speaking, the races were an unprecedented success, the receipts on the first day having been 30 per cent more than had ever been reached before. On Thursday the sports commenced punctually at two o'clock with the Fifty Sovs Plate, for which eleven out of the dozen entered faced the starter. Flexinore was at once installed the favourite, and thanks to Challoner's riding, just saved the cash of those who took a short price about him, for the stable had not a shilling on the race. Previous to starting a question arose respecting Merry Widow's weight. Although entered properly as three years old, by an oversight she was handicapped as a dark two year old at 5st 71b, and printed as such in the cards; but the moment the error was discovered, Mr Johnson altered her impost to 6st 71b, and notices were circulated to that effect. However, at the request of her owner, the matter was gone into by the Earl of Coventry, and Lord Winchilsea, acting for Ad- miral Rous, who had not then arrived; their decision being that the handioapper had no power to alter any weight after its publica- tion. The mare consequently carried only 5st 71b, but might as well have remained at home for all the show she made in the race, being a thorough bad one and not worth training. The Trial Handicap afforded a fine race with three, of whom Ana- ticulus, much improved upon his spring form, proved the winner by a neck The Croome Stakes, a mere canter for Umpire, having been set by request before the Worcestershire Stakes with a race between, many fancied that his noble owner was about to repeat the Exchequer dose of last year; but the American was struck out of the last named event to- day at a quarter to four, his lordship, no doubt, having an eye to the Cup on the morrow. Half a dozen contested the Two Year Old Stakes, including Coup d' Etat, one of the best looking youngsters we have seen this year, and who landed the odds on him in the commonest of canters, being afterwards supported freely for the Derby, at 25 to 1. We should, however, mention that the instant the flag fell, a " cannon" took place with Prince Arthur and Lady Mary Cavendish, by which the former lost three or four lengths start, and was driven from one side of the course to the other. The Worcestershire Stakes brought out eight runners only, but what was deficient in quantity was overbalanced by quality, for we have scarcely seen a more interesting race this season between three horses, Turn of Luck just beating Chfere Amie, whilst War- minster, who looked very formidable at the distance, finished a length from Mr Naylor's mare. The Madresfield Stakes were pulled off by Bceotion, and at the hammer brought 60gs to the fund, which was further enriched by the sale of Cosette from the same stable, being entered for 30gs and knocked down for 200gs. The City Plate was won easily by Mountain Buck, who, with his companion Teddy, left Carlisle the previous evening, and travelled all night. Betting on future events was tolerably brisk during| the afternoon at the subjoined quotations:— On Friday the forenoon was occupied with Mr Bentley's sale of blood stock, and as regards the racing, being restricted to telegram, we can only remark that the Cup was the principal event on the se- cond day. This prize, won by Umpire, isa very fine Grecian model two handle cup, on ebony stand, beautifully encircled with a spreading vine leaf and fruit to correspond, the edges beaded with a rich border of engraving, both on lid and stand, the whole sur- mounted with a most perfect model of a female on a chariot of clouds with two chargers, representing Aurora, the goddess of morning, designed and manufactured by Messrs Manning and Manning of Worcester.

They ran in line for about fifty yards, when Violet took up the running, followed by Flexmore, Lufra, and Miss Hawthorne to the river side turn. The latter then showed in advance with a clear lead, but died away simultaneously with the Ilsley mare at the cords. Upon their retirement, Teddy got his head in front at the distance, after which the lead was taken by Queen of Clubs, who looked all over the winner to the Stand, where the favourite challenged and won a fine race in almost the last stride by a head. Teddy was a moderate third, with Miss Hawthorne and Foie de Gras at his quarters, the next two being Lufra and Violet. Merry Widow did not pass the chair. G. Noble weighed for Mountain Buck, 7st 111b, but the put up number was immediately removed, the lad, it was alleged, having weighed by mistake.

The light weight cut out the work to the top of the ham, from whence Colonel Crockett and Misfire made joint running to the straight, where they were joined on the inside by Anaticuius, who took the lead at the distance, and won a good race by a short half length; the third beaten ahead; a bad fourth. The CROOME HANDICAP STAKES of 15 sovs each, 5 ft, with 100 added, for all ages ; winners extra; the second saved his stake; about three quarters of a mile; 21 subs.

Juliet first off, but was directly headed by Umpire, who made the rest of the running, and won in a canter by two lengths; the Olitipa filly, after a taste of the whip, saving her stake a length over Mr Hughes's mare, whom she passed in the last few strides. A SWEEPSTAKES of 10 sovs each, with 100 added, for two year olds; colts 8st 101b, fillies 8st71b; winners extra; T. Y. C.; 18 subs. * Mr W.

A pretty fair start was effected at the second attempt, in which Lady Fanny Cavendish, after cannoning with Prince Arthur, took the lead. She, however, was soon headed by the favourite, waited on by Salvioni to about two distances from home, when Prince Arthur became second, but, like his follower, never seemed to have the ghost of a chance with Coup d'Etat, who came out at the enclosure, and won very easily by two lengths, the third finishing three lengths off, with an advantage of a length over the feurth. The WORCESTERSHIRE STAKES of 10 sovs each, h ft, and 3 if de" clared, with 100 added ; the second saved his stake ; winners extra ; one mile three furlongs : 60 subs, 42 of whom declared.

Clark 6 Betting : 2 to 1 agst Chere Amie, 4 to 1 agst Turn of Luck, 5 to 1 agst Warminster, 6 to 1 agst Merry Maid, and S to 1 agst Shepherdess. The flag fell to an excellent start, after two failures, those immediately in advance being Church Militant, Warminster, Merry Maid, and the favourite, but so close together that nothing was positively leading for the first hundred yards, after which Mr Golby's mare took up the running, followed by the others in the order named, to whom succeeded Everlasting, whipped in by Turn of Luck and Fluke for nearly half a mile, when Shepherdess drepped into the ex- treme rear. With the latter excepted, the lot ran tolerably well together till approaching the top or final turn, where Church Militant, with a lead of half a dozen lengths, ran out and gave the command to Chere Amie. Others also going wide at the same time let Turn of Luck into second place, at whose heels, as they raced for the straight, were Warminster and Merry Maid. The latter, however, was in difficulties before reaching the straight, entering which Warminster, on the inside, got on nearly even terms with Turn of Luck and Chere Amie, the latter still slightly in advance. Thus the trio came on to the half- distance, where War- minster closed accounts, and Turn » f Luck reaching Mr Naylor's mare in the last half dozen strides won by a head ; Warminster finishing a length from her. Five or six lengths off', Fluke was fourth, and Merry Maid next, Everlasting being sixth, at a widish interval from them, Church Militant being seventh, and Shep- herdess last.

Immediately the signal was given the Jessie colt took the lead, followed by the Woman in Black colt and Sir Watkin to the cords, where they were joined and beaded by Boeotian, who ran a fine race home from the dis- tance with Mr Orme's colt; the latter, however, never quite getting up, was defeated bya neck; bad third. The winner was bought in for lOOgs. The CITY PLATE ( Handicap) of 50 sovs, for three year olds and upwards; the second received 10 sovs out of the plate; winners extra ; one mile and a quarter.

" White- hall made play, with the others in close attendance to the river side, where Foie de Gras's rider was shot from the saddle, through coming in collision with a post. Whitehall meanwhile obtained a commanding lead, but bolted at the last turn, and Queen of Clubs took up the running to the half- distance, where Mountain Buck made his effort, obtained a shade the best of it at the Stand, and won cleverly by a length; Miss Hawthorne a bad third, the loose animal finishing close up with her.

After one failure Little Lady jumped off" in advance, but being directly joined by Fravola and Miss Julia, they ran locked together to the straight, where the latter died away and Fravola took a slight lead. At the Stand Little Lady made her effort, and won in thejlast two strides by a short neck; three lengths between the second and third; bad fourth.

Vacuna, who took second place at the Stand, finished half as far in front of Lord Stamford's colt; Lady Fanny Caven- dish a bad fourth ; the others beaten off.

ANNUAL SALE OF THE DEAN'S HILL YEARLINGS. The annual sale of the Dean's Hill yearlings, the property of Messrs Painter, who bred them, took place 011 Friday, July 3, in the rear of the Bell Hotel, Worcester, by Mr Bentley, and al- though this is only the third year of the sale, it drew together a very large attendance of gentlemen and astreng musterof trainers, many of the latter taking stock of their anticipated purchases at an early hour, when the youngsters were walking out for an airing. The first lot offered was Dagon, a bay colt, by Mountain Deer out of Superstition, who, although a rather mean- looking colt, is a wiry one. He was purchased by Mr Baker for 51gs. Edinburgh, bay colt, by Moun- tain Deer out of Honesty ( an extraordinary old mare, well known in Welter and heat races some years ago), had no racing points about him that caught the eye, and he was not sold. The third up was Reparation, a bay filly, by Mountain Deer out of Julia; there was nothing particularly attractive to recommend her, but she was sold to Mr Scott for 56 guineas. Atonement, by Mountain Deer out of Miss Bowen, was a large raking- looking colt, and although not well up in con- dition, he showed much fashion and quality, and was purchased accordingly by Mr Naylorfor 150 guineas. The Eland, by Moun- tain deer out of The Belle, was a big, smart colt, but rather over- grown, and will require much care ; he went cheap to Mr Bead- man for 140 guineas. Wild Bee, a black colt, by Mountain Deer out of Wild Honey, was the pick of the whole lot, and he had many admirers; he was of good size and substance, show- ing much power all over, with good head and neck, his arms well set on, and with deep thighs, capital hocks,, and knees close to the ground. Mr Nay lor and his trainer, God- ding, as a matter of course, wanted him, still, after some strong competition, they were defeated, and the colt was knocked down to MrT. Stevens for 360 guineas, a decidedly cheap horse. Similitude, out of Mrs Rarey, and own sister to Mountain Buck, concluded the sale ; she was dropped in May, and consequently rather back- ward, but is a very wiry looking filly, with much quality, and so well put together that she is bound to race. She was booked to Mr Eskrett for 170 guineas. The whole lot of youngsters looked remarkably healthy and promising. The sale must be deemed a satisfactory one by the Messrs Painter, whose intention is to in- crease their stock* of mares, and in a few years we anticipate seeing a strong team of their youngsters brought to the hammer.

Stewards : The Right Hon the Earl of Derby, Edward H. Max- well, Thomas H. Parker, and George A. Thompson, Esqs- Judge: Mr Richard Johnson of York. Clerk of the Course: Mr John Daly. Starter: Mr William Elliott. These races took place on Tuesday and Wednesday last, and they were a great success over last 5 ear; Newcastle, however, ought to be reduced to two days, and Carlisle take place in the same week. We should then have four good days' sport in the same locality, and both meetings would be greatly benefitted. The weather was all that could be desired, and the attendance very large. The Grand Stand was most liberally patronised, indeed it was crowded in all parts, and we have no doubt that the meeting will look up again, as Mr Daly is most persevering in his exer- tions to render Carlisle what it was some twenty years ago, although at the present day meetings are more numerous all over the country. The forenoon of each race day was occupied with the wrestling, and therefore the races could not commence till half- past two o'clock. The Corby Castle Stakes eaded in a walk over, but would have produced a race between The Clown and The Little Stag, if the added money had been given ; however, their owners agreed to divide the forfeits, and The Little Stag walked over. Lady Bray brook e won the Maiden Plate, after a fine race. The Cumberland Plate brought out two more runners BELL'S LIFE IN LONDON, JULY 12, 1863. 142 than last year, and although Joey Jones was on the spot, he did not put in an appearance, but was struck out at a quarter past one o'clock. Caller Ou was made the favourite, from her winning the Northumberland Plate last week; she ran well to the dis- tance, but died away under the weight, and Honest John, who made all the running after the first two hundred yards, won easily. Teddy made short work of his opponents for the Grand Stand Handicap, and Lady Braybrooke threw in for a second main in the Holm Hill Stakes, bringing 33 guineas to the race fund, • which requires a little assistance. The weather was again fa- vourable on the second day, and the attendance good, but not quite so numerous as on the opening day. It will be seen that the Queen's Plate ended in a walk over, nothing facing Caller Ou, although Interest and Dick Swiveller were weighed for. Teddy defeated Honest John, the winner of the Cumberland Plate, yes- terday, easily, for the Lottery Plate, which was the only interest- ing race to- day. The meeting was well conducted.

Betting : Even on Caller Ou, 6 to 4 agst Honest John, 11 to 2 agst Luna, and 6 to 1 each agst Trump Queen, and The Fawn. Trump Queen jumped off with the lead, but in the first two hundred yards the latter took up the running, with Trump ( Queen next, The Fawn third, Luna fourth, the heavy weight being several lengths in the rear on going down the hack stretch, but on approaching the Stand in the second round, she began to improve her position. No change took place in these positions until reaching the bottom turn 1n the last round, • where The Fawn took the second place, and Caller Ou got on better terms with her horses ; Trump Queen went up to Honest - John at the distance, the mare for a moment reaching his neck, bHt in the next few strides, the son of Neville shook her off, and ran home an easy winner by a length; two lengths between the second and third, and three lengths the third and fourth, and the same the fourth and fifth. The pace was good all the way. The GRAND STAND HANDICAP of 50 sovs; winners extra; one round.

Within the last few days we have received reports of the most satisfactory character from several large moors in Inverness- shire and Aberdeenshire, so that there is every prospect of first- rate sport; in fact such sport as has not been obtained for several years. On the Daliminie Moors, Strathmasshie, and the Ben Alder, the hatching has been excellent, and there is no appearance of disease. In Aberdeenshire there is no disease, and the hatching has been so good that the broods are generally from eight to nine. We have not heard that the recent rains have done any mischief ; indeed, the young birds are so strong that we are not apprehen- sive that they will suffer from any changes in the weather.

[ From Baily's Magazine.} The Duke of Rutland is a nobleman so endeared to sportsmen of every class and degree, that none of his order are better en- titled to a niche in our collecSron; and a more speaking likeness it has never been our good fortssae to produce than the one which faces these remarks. The duke, who is the sixth in succession to the honours of his family, was bor » on the I6th of May, 1815, and was educated at Eton, and from thease was transferred to Cam- bridge, where he took his degree at Trinity in 1835. His first step in public life was to enter Parliament as the representative for Stamford, which he subsequently exchanged for North Lei- cestershire. In the quiet possession of Shis post he remained until his accession to the dukedom in 1855, As a legislator the Marquis of Granby was distinguished for his strenuous advocacy of the agricultural interest and unremitting opposition to the pro- pagation of the doctrines of Messrs Bright and Cobden. In the prosecution of his object he was never deterred by the endless de- feats he^ sustained, but went on to the last with Ms small band of followers, with a degree of consistency which is- not often observ- able among public men, who too often, in the hope of winning popularity, forget in St Stephen's the promises they have made on the hustings to their constituents. In the cause of education also the Marquis of Granby took the liveliest interest, cognisant of the inestimable benefits that flow from it; and the numerous schools that are to be found established on all parts of his pro- perty prove that he was no visionary enthusiast, but an earnest, practical worker in improving the condition of the peasantry. The late duke, it is well known, was one of the best noblemen that ever adorned the ranks of the aristocracy of England— one who did not live for himself but for those around him, and consequently k ® reigned in the hearts of his tenantry. A member of the Jockey Club, he raced as became his position, and knew nothing about being forestalled, neither would a leg have dared to hint to him the advisability of getting as much as he could out of his horse before taking the pen to scratch him. The more the public backed his horse the better he was pleased, for he felt it as a com- pliment to himself. For many years he was confederate with Mr Sloane Stanley, who is also gathered to his fathers; and with Boyce for his trainer and Robinson for his jockey he managed ia the course of his career to win the Derby wiih Cadland ( whom he bred) after a dead heat with The Colonel, and the Oaks with Sorcery and Medora. The last good horse the late duke pos- sessed was Rat Trap, who was a tremendous favourite for the Derby in the memorable year when the despised Phosphorus beat Caravan by half a length, and realised the fortunate pro- phecy of " Vates" in 1 jell's L'fe in London. To the eye Rat Trap was a magnificent horse, but he was only a miler ; and when he had finished his career on the Turf his noble owner soon followed, and the Cadland blue was no longer seen on Newmarket Heath. From inheriting so many of the charac- teristics of his father, and being so associated with Newmarket by his residence at Cheveley, it was hoped that the popular old co- lour might once more have found its way into the cards; but this, feeling has not been gratified, and the subject of our memoir, we are sorry to state, prefers making a bag out of his preserves in the neighbourhood to making a book on the Heath, although he had the rare compliment paid him of being made a member of the Jockey Club by acclamation, as if he belonged to the royal family. Still, if the Turf has no charm for him the Chase holds him inextricably in its toils, for a more devoted or fearless fox- hunter never crossed Leicestershire. In making this avowal we wish it to be distinctly understood that we are not using the language of flattery, because we cannot claim for his grace the credit of being the best man going at Melton, for that would be absurd; but we challenge denial that any of those great Meltonians who are famous in story have ever jumped bigger places or been more prodigal of their persons. In fact, when hounds are racing in the dark, as is often the case with the duke's, and a tremendous crash is heard over the timber, it is agreed to nem con in the field that it must be tke duke. Nor are they ever mistaken; but while his ardour with hounds raises liim_ so much in the estimation of fox- hunters, still it gives great anxiety to his friends, for he has sustained some most frightful falls; and a life so valuable should be exposed to as few casualties as fall to the lot of the humblest member of the community. Only three months back his grace met with a most awful fall, which led for seme time to the most serious apprehensions as to his re- covery ; but a sound constitution and the best of medical aid soon produced the proper effect, and, to the delight of his tenantry, he was again at the cover side with his hounds. As a proof of the estimation in which the duke is held in Leicestershire, we fancy we can exhibit no better instance than the address, signed by up wards of six hundred persons who were in the habit of hunting with him, congratulating his grace on his recovery, and condoling with him on the insult he had experienced when a stout fox was shot before his face, as well as that of the whole field, by an infu- riated vulpicide. The reply to this address was a model of ele- gance and propriety, and spoke the language of his heart. Of Belvoir Castle what can we say, when Disraeli himself has con- fessed his inability to pourtray its features, in his charming novel of Coningsby ? Suffice it to say, it is one of the most extensive baronial residences in the country, and every way worthy of the noble estates which are attached to it; and from the disburse- ments of such a large and magnificent establishment the surround- ing country must have experienced the most boundless benefits. In fact, were there half a dozen Belvoir Castles in every county in England provincial and rural suffering would soon be at an end, for the hospitality of Belvoir has no parallel in the annals of the aristocracy in this or any other county. For upwards of a cen- tury hounds have been kept at Belvoir, and their fame is too well engrafted upon sportsman's memories to need enlarging upon ; and it is superfluous to say one word about the kennels and their arrangements. In appearance the duke's pack are very beautiful, with splendid heads, necks, shoulders, fore legs, and feet; but to fastidious judges they may seem deficient in their back ribs, and do not give the idea of being able to struggle against difficulties and hardships. However, the sport they show is a sufficient cri- terion of their excellence; and never has their fame stood higher than at the present time. Like his father, the duke is an excel- lent shot, and devotes himself as sedulously to the grouse of Long- shaw as to the pheasants of Belvoir and Cheveley. In the success of the Croxton Park Meeting he takes the liveliest interest, always entertaining a distinguished party at the castle for it, and contributing liberally to the fund. As a yachtsman also the duke of Rutland is as well known as his father; and there is not a port in the Channel in which the Resolution is not known. In private life his grace unites in himself all the qualifications and virtues of the late duke, both as a country gentleman and nobleman of the highest standing in society ; and that he will find an equal reward in the verdict passed upon him by the world we are likewise certain.

MR EDITOE: AS a governor of this hospital I have, with others, just received its report for last year, from which I extract the following information:— The income of the hospital has not been equal to the expendi- ture, the former amounting to £ 12,995 lis 9d, the latter to £ 15,562 13s 6d, showing a deficiency of £ 2,567 Is 9d. The amount of stock in the Bank of England was, in January, £ 129,450. " The hospital has, notwithstanding, been maintained in its full efficiency through legacies and donations which the weekly board desire to make grateful mention of, amounting to £ 2,691 9s 6d; besides which there has been a munificent bequest of £ 600 or £ 700 per annum from J. A. Cropper, Esq. The final settlement of the estate of Sir Thomas Apreece will be completed in the course of the next year, when the balance will be received. ( This, in ad- dition to the sum of £ 120,334 9s 4d already paid to the hospital.) The property left by the late Mr Morlev is payable in July, when the governors will have to deal with it." The last- mentioned legacy to the hospital, which I know to be considerably more than £ 150,000, the weekly board have, in ad- vertising for contributions, stated " that it will not add one penny to its funds." A statement which may have served a purpose, but which is as ungracious as it is untrue. If the income of the hospital is deficient, how is it that the weekly board annually vote £ 200 of the money subscribed for the charity to pay the rent of a medical school belonging to the officers, who are all governors and voters at the board of the hospital ? To this report I would draw the attention of the many whose names I recognise as governors and subscribers, and who read your paper, but who do not attend to the doings of the weekly board of the hospital, where the medical clique who rule the day have succeeded, by what is vulgarly called bullyism and volubility, in deterring lay governors from putting in an appearance, amongst the num- ber of which I am, & c, W. J. GOODWIN, June 22. THE LATE ROBERT SMITH. MR EDITOR: I have to acknowledge in your columns the fol- lowing contributions which I have lately received for the widow and family of my late huntsman, Robert Smith:— Mr Garner, 5s ; Mr J. Grenitt, 5s; Mr J. Wilborne, 5s; Mr Cooper, Belvoir Kennels, 5s; Rev H. Skrine, £ 1; Mrs Skrine, £ 1; Mr T. Han- ning, £ 1; Mr J. Noble, £ 1; and Mr H. Langton, Maidenhead, £ 1. — Yours, & c, G. R. DEASK. Turbotston, Coole, Rathowen, county Westmeath, loth June, 1863. THE CURRAGH COURSE.— A meeting was held on Thursday at the Club House, Kildare, to take into consideration a letter that had been received by the Stewards of the Turf Club from Govern- ment respecting the rights or privileges of the club to the courses and gallops at the Curragh. It is very desirable for the good of the sport that the privileges hitherto enjoyed should be confirmed, so as hereafter to prevent the interference of parties that might be hostile to the maintenance of^ the national sport. DEATH OF SIR WILLIAM MASSEY STANLEY.— This gentleman, once so well known as a man of fashion and a sportsman, died in Paris on Sunday last, after a very short illness, in the 56th year of his age. He succeeded his father, Sir Thomas Stanley, ano- ther distinguished sportsman, in 1841, but though he inherited large family estates in Cheshire, the late baronet did not long en jo j' their possession, and ill health and bad luck drove him to a permanent residence on the Continent, where he lived for many years on a very moderate income. Like his father before him, Sir William had a taste for the turf, and was rarely without a race horse or two in work at Newmarket, while, like his brother, he was also a very keen man with hounds. He flourished in Leicestershire during the time Mr Errington had the Quorn, and, if we recollect aright, his portrait appears in Grant's famous picture of " The Melton Breakfast," where he was a member of the New Club. Sir William is succeeded in the baronetcy by his next brother, Mr Rowland Errington, who assumed the name of Errington in lieu of his patronymic, in compliance with the will of Mr Henry Errington, of Red Rice, Hertfordshire, from whom the present baronet came into the possession of a fine fortune. The style in which he hunted Leicestershire, at perhaps its very hey- day, will long be remembered, alike in the sport shown, and the magnificence of the establishment.

On Tuesday, June 30, a match to trot three miles ( in harness), for £ 100 a side, came off on the London turnpike- road near Har- lington, Middlesex, between Capt Bell's mare by Spanish Jack and Mr Brookson's mare Bluesides ( bred in America). The se- lected spot having been kept dark, the attendance was not very large. At a very early hour in the morning the competitors were driven to the scratch in light match carts, and at the signal given they rattled away at a merry pace, the Spanish Jack mare taking a slight lead, which she maintained on sufferance for two miles and a half, for although going at a clinking pace the American mare, who is a " pacer," had decidedly the turn of speed, and, dashing in advance after a little over two miles and a half had been paced over, was never again headed, and won easily by a hundred yards, completing the distance in 9min 44sec. MATCH AGAINST TIME.— On Tuesday, June 30, there was a good attendance of the East Enders on Mr Jewson's enclosed ground, Ponder's End, to witness the match against time in which Mr Chance's tit had been backed to trot eight miles in thirty minutes, Mr C. Bastien backing the " enemy." When seven miles of the distance had been accomplished the driver met with an accident, having the trap upset. As, however, no serious harm had been done, matters were speedily righted, and the match resumed, the struggle in the end being brought to a suc- cessful issue, as the distance was accomplished in 29min 7sec. DAISY AND POTATO BOB.— We last week received £ 25 a side, and this week we have received £ 50 a side, for the match between Mr Harrison's Daisy and Mr Reade's Potato Bob, who are to trot 20 miles, for £ 100 a side, within 50 miles of Birmingham, on the 8th inst. The whole of the maney is now down. The whereabouts can be learned at Mr Wheelers, Cross Keys, Cheapside, Birming- ham ; and at Mr Hallam's, Mug House Inn, Chapel- street, Bir- mingham. JACK ROSSITER AND JERRY.— We have received the whole of the money, £ 20 a side, for the match between these horses to trofc five miles. The final deposit was made at Mr Hadland's, the Hare, Hoxton, on Thursday, July 2, in the presence ol a large muster of the trotting fraternity. The match comes off ip, % fort- night, and due notice will be given of the whereabouts. G BELL'S LIFE IN LONDON, JULY 12, 1863. 143 AQUATIC REGISTER. HIGH WATEB AT LONDON SUNDAY, JULY 5....

ROYAL THAMES YACHT CLUB- JUNE 27.— SAILING MATCH.— This was the day fixed for the schooner match in this club, a match which, on account of the size of the vessels engaged, and the long and adventurous course, and as closing the Thames season, always excites much attention. On this occasion there was an unusually large assembly on board the club steamer, in order to welcome the return of the Com- modore, Lord Alfred Paget, whose re- appearance at his wonted post w as acknowledged by the loudest and heartiest cheers which the lungs of some 400 members and friends could produce. The club this year offered two prizes, one, value £ 100, for schooners above 100 tons ; another, value £ 50, for schooners not above 100 tons. The matches to be sailed separately, and no time allowed. Course, from Rosherville round the Mouse Light and back. The following vessels entered :— Above 10C Tons. OWNER. . Lord Londeaborough YACHT.

CLYTIK 64 FLEUR DE LIS ... 77 INTRIGUE 83 The Galatea was built by Hansen in 1860, and lengthened by him in 1862, and sailed in the Royal Thames Yacht Club schooner matches of 1861 and 1862, coming in first in the latter, which, however, was won by the Flying Cloud by time. The Albertine was built by Inman in 1860, and sailed in the Royal Thames Yacht Ciub match of 1861, when she was beaten by the Alarm in one of the fastest matches on record. The Gloriana was built in 1852 by Ratsey, of Cowes, for the late Mr Gee, of the Royal Yacht Squadron. She has never sailed a match in the Thames, but has sailed well in other places. The Albatross is an iron vessel, built under the inspection of her owner at Birkenhead some three years ago. The Clytie was built by Inman in 1861. The Fleur de Lys is new this year from the yard of Aldous, of Brighttingsea. The Intrigue has just suffered a foolish change of name, having been formerly the Diana, built by Ratsey in 1858. At the time of the start the weather looked gloomy and threaten- ing, and a strong W. 8. W. wind was blowing. Tee vessels were moored in two lines, the small vessels lowest, and the first gun for them was fired at 12: 2, the second gun at 12: 7. The Clytie being out in the tide was first to swing, and so got up her main- sail first. Intrigue was rather behindhand; we believe that her spring parted; however, she was first with her gaff topsail. We have not much to relate of the run down, except that the pace was very great, and Clytie kept the lead till near Southend, when she was at length passed by the Fleur de Ly3. They rounded the Mouse as follows :— H. M. S. I H. M. S. I H. 31. S. FLEUR DELYS.. 2 33 15 I INTRIGUE 2 39 SO | CLYTIE 2 44 20 In rounding, Clytie carried away her main halyards, and was a long time repairing the damage, which, of course, threw her hopelessly out of the race. There was now a dead beat back against wind, and at first against tide, and just at this time the wind was very strong, but being with tide there was no sea. Intrigue began to gain steadily, and after a hard fight passed Fleur do Lys off Southend. Ihe breeze held on strong and steady, and the leading vessels increased their lead till they passed the winning buoy off Roslierville:— H. M. S. I H. M. S. I H. M. S. INTRKJDE 7 17 80 | FLECRDELYS.. 7 21 15 I CLYTIB 7 2 » 0 We now return to the large class yachts. The Albatross could not be got properly ready in time, and her owner determined not to sail for the prize, but hearing that there might not be vessel enough to make up a start, he ordered his crew to be ready if necessary. Only three moorings were laid down by the club for the large class yachts; but shortly before the match started the Albatross was seen to bring up just outside the Albertine, as if for a start. The first gun for the first class yachts was fired at 12: 7, the second at 12: 12, and the sails of these fine vessels began to rise like a cloud. Of course, with a strong west wind, all had to get their heads round, and then cant, each relying on her neighbour performing the same operation, and getting out of the way. The Albatross, however, made no move, so that she was right in the way of the Albertine, and a terrible collision was with difficulty avoided. The Albertine was obliged to shift her helm and sail up the river, and as soon as she got clear, before she could round into her proper course, she was very nearly ashore on the dangerous point opposite Erit'h. Altogether she was com- puted to have lost at least five minutes by this unprecedented mishap, and the Albatross and every one belonging to her were loudly and deeply abused and execrated, but we believe without the slightest reason, and we feel bound to state the circumstances, in order publicly to exculpate them. It appears that as she was lying at her moorings, Capt Grant, the secretary of the club, came and ordered her to take up her place. The captain remonstrated that he had neither crew nor fit out, and that neither his owner nor any other member was on board. However, the order was repeated, and the puzzled and unhappy captain fancied himself bound to obey, and accordingly took up his station. Hoping that his owner was coming down to relieve him from his diffi- culties he sent the gig on shore, and was thus left with only three hands on board when the starting gun was fired. Finding then how much he was in the way, he slipped and dropped down with the tide, and did what he could, but, of course, not enough to relieve the Albertine. All the arrangements for hoisting sail on board the Albertine were disarranged by this, and she was all adrift, and the crew so confused and puzzled that she was not got into proper trim until they were in the Lower Hope. Mean- time the Galatea and Gloriana were off, Galatea at onoe taking the lead. She set an enormous balloon jib, and began ra- pidly to gain, going through the water at a tremendous pace, every stitch drawing through most of the reaches. They ran through the Lower Hope, sails wing and wing, and here Albertine began to prove that she had the speed of her compe- titors. Still Galatea kept fairly ahead, until off the Chapman the big ballooner proved too much for the jib- boom, which broke short off. The stump or a spare jib- boom was set with great rapidity, and a jib and outer jib hoisted, but of course the delay was serious. There was nothing remarkable except the paoe until they rounded the Mouse as follows:— H. M. s. I H. M. s. I H. M. s. GALATEA .... 2 34 5 I ALBERTINE .. 2 40 40 | GLORIANA .... 2 41 50 8ails had been shifted for the beat back, Galatea keeping up square- headed topsails, Albertine carrying jib- headed topsails. The others sent down foretopmasts, after the American fashion. Now came the tug of war against wind and tide, and Galatea's loss was probably of advantage to her, but Albertine was not to be denied, decreasing the interval steadily tack by tack. Near the Nore the wind became rather less strong, and the clouds and squalls cleared away, the sun coming out bright, clear, and hot. They passed Southend at 4: 35, Albertine carrying jib- headed top- sails, and close upon and perhaps to windward of the Galatea, which still had squswe- headed topsails. The Galatea for the short tacka sent down her fore topsail, but soon sent it up again. Before the Chapman Head, Albertine had fairly passed to windward of Ga'atea. and the race was over barring those accidents ofwhich this season have been so prolific. They passed the buoy at Rosherville : H. M. S. 1 H. M. S.. I H. M. 8.

The success of Lord Londesborough afforded general satisfaction, as he has always sailed his vessel with great spirit, and though beaten, it has been so close that every one wished that both could have been winners. Moreover, the old yachtsmen were pleased to see the old Mosquito colour again at the mast- head of the winner. The run down was accomplished by Ga- latea in 2h 22min : a fast run, but the same was done by Alarm in lh 57min 30sec, and by Albertine in 2h 3min 30sec at the match of 1861. We have nst been able to do justice to the great beauty and interest of this match. From the times it will be seen that the large and small yachts were all together during most part of the day, and after the morning clouds had cleared away the bright sun on the white sails of the racers and of the numerous other yachts, and on the brown and red sails of the picturesque river craft and coasters, gave one of those brilliant scenes that only the Thames can produce. The Prince of Wales was, as usual, engaged by the club, and had near 400 on board— somewhat uncomfortably full. Luckity, as has always hitherto been the case in the schooner matches, there was but little sea at any time, otherwise a vast amount of discomfort must have ensued. As usual, under the management of Mr Watts, the previsions were good and abundant, and a great consumption must have been made in the somewhat long day. The steamer was not alongside the wharf at London Bridge until ten minutes past ten o'clock, and we may mention as an illustration of the advantage in point of time of landing at Biackwall that she rounded the point there at 7: 20. As a proof of the interest created by this match we may men- tion that, besides the club steamer, the Oread and the Sea Swal- low, both well ( and, perhaps, too well) filled, accompanied the match. CLUB MEETING.— The usual quarterly meeting of this club was held on July 1, at the ciub house; the meeting was but thinly attended, as " very many members were not aware that there was to be such a meeting. Lord Alfred Paget, as Commodore, took the chair amidst general applause. After the usual formal busi- ness, Mr Hutchens, the treasurer, presented his report, from which it appeared that the club had £ 4,000 Consols invested in the names of three trustees, and near £ 2,000 at the bankers. Mr Hutchens then announced that he had only held office pro tem for the last three months, and that, a3 the office of treasurer was to be abolished, he must now retire, though the club would have to consioer how the business could be managed without such an officer, and what arrangements would be mafle to relieve him from his responsibilities as to the house. We presume that the long services of Mr Hutchens will, when the members generally are aware of his retirement, be suitably acknowledged. The Com- modore then announced that he had received a letter from Mr Brassey, owner of the Albatross, a3 to the position of that vessel in the late match, and he put it to the meeting whether they wished to hear the letter or refer it to the committee, it being near eleven o'clock. The latter alternative was chosen. The Commo- dore, however, desired it to be publicly stated that, in his opinion, Mr Brassey and his captain were completely exculpated, and that they were not the persons to be blamed for what had happened. The following yachtsmen amongst other candidates were elected members, viz:— Mr Edward Hr Hudson, Caroline schooner, 81 tons; Capt G. J. W. Ferraiid, Clio cutter. 40 tons; and Mr George Harrison, Alexandra cutter, 15 tons. The meeting then broke up. ROYAL LONDON YACHT CLUB. The sailing committee met on Monday evening, June 29, to con- sider the various protests made on the occasion of the match on the 10th of June last. The protest of the Amazon against the Mars was withdrawn, on the assurance of the owner of the latter vessel that he had not transgressed the rule as to sea- going trim. The protest of the Amazon against the Volante for not being in sea- going trim was also withdrawn, as it did not affect the distri- bute* of prizes. The protest of the Emmet was also decided by the committee taking her measurement at 32 tons. The protest of the Glimpse against her measurement was settled by an arrange- ment that she should be re- measured, together with the Mars. The protest of the Voiante against the Ahnazon, on account of the latter vessel running across the Volante's bows to prevent her pass- ing, and thereby running her ashore, was decided by the follow- ing resolution of the committee:—" That this committee is of opinion that under the circumstances the Volante was wrong in going to windward of the Amazon, but having done so, that the Amazon was also wrong in running the Volante ashore instead of bearing up and protesting against her for attempting to go to windward contrary to the recognised rule, that a vessel ahead is entitled to hold her wind under ordinary circumstances." The prizes will not be awarded until the result of the measurement of the Glimpse and Mars is known. BANELAGH YACHT CLUB. ANNUAL DINNER, JUNE 30.— This event took place a3 above at the Pier Hotel, Chelsea, the Commodore, Col Evelyn, in the chair, faced by the vice, Mr Ingram Pick. The preliminary toasts having been gone through, the Commodore said : When I see the well filled table before me, I cannot but think it augurs well for the prosperty of the club. There are not only members before me, but many" old friends and some strangers, " gentlemen not belonging to us, but who take an interest in our proceedings. I can assure you it would be a matter of great regret to me if I did not see " the club progressive, and I am happy to say that on comparing notes with the secretary, I find that it is increasing and I hope improving. We have increased both in numbers and yachts, and this announcement must be a matter of pleasure to all who have the Ranelagh Yacht Club, and eonsequentlyyachting, atheart. In another point of view it may be commended. I think it will become a pleasant, social society; and it is, as I have seen it de- scribed in a yachting magazine, one of the best schools for yacht- ing on the Thames. It is an advantage that its boats are small— men who want to become yachtsmen and saiiors must begin with small boats— with one man or a boy besides themselves, and they will soon learn yachting ; and when once they are able to manage a 10 ton boat, they can with equal facility manage one of 100 tons to advantage. The owner who begins with a large boat is a mere passenger conveyed from place to place— his captain has to manage everything, and the owner himself consequently knows little or nothing about yachting. In small yachts an owner cannot well be in the same position— there is no room to stow men, and he must work himself. I, therefore, repeat that the best yachtsmen are those who have been in small boats. I hope that the sport will be advanced by our club, and that no yachtsman will raise a blush by knowing us. I now propose " Prosperity to the Ranelagh Yacht Club.''— The Vice- Commodore said: I rise to propose a toajt, which, I am sure, you will ail drink very cordially, it is " The Yacht Clubs of the United Kingdom." We are all proud of the fraternity which exists amongst yachts- men of various clubs, and I hope it may ever continue.— Mr Powell said: As a very old member of yachting clubs, I have great pleasure in responding to the last toast. When I say I am an old member, you will believe me when I tell you that Lyons built a boat for me called the Severn Farmer as long ago a3 1810. I almost regret to remember so long. At that time I considered it a large yacht, but it would not be considered so now. After a sum- mary of the yachts then in existence, and a detail of their sailing, Mr Powell contiaued: I perfectly agree with the Commodore about the small boats ; you can't manage a 100- ton boat if you have not had a 10- tonner. You must study the rudiments of yachting as you must study every thing else if you wish to arrive at perfection. I am happy to say that this is a united club, and before I sit down I must have the pleasure of proposing the health of the Commodore, Vice- Commodore, and other officers. A club could not flourish unless its ex- ecutive were efficient, and the reason of our success is that efficiency.— The Commodore said: I must in my own name, and in the name of my brother officers, return you hearty thanks for the handsome way in which Mr Powell lias proposed and you have drunk our healths. I feel that, whatever my deficiencies may be, I am so ably supported that any inefficiency of mine is made amends for by tlieir efficiency; but, I assure you, I have the good of the club at heart, and I should be happy to do anything I could for its welfare.— After some allusions to breezes and calms in yacht clubs, the Chairman concluded by hoping good fellowship and harmony would prevail. in the Ranelagh,— Other toasts were given.

" In bringing forward the first of these motions, Mr Lee dwelt at some length upon the necessity of changing the name of the club, a necessity, he said, which had long existed, and was recognised by all, although the difficulty had always been to find a suitable title and colours, neither of which should clash with any other club on the river. While they remained a town club only, the necessity for a change had not seemed so paramount; but now that they had summer quarters at the Duke's Head, Putney, and their flag flew there, tfie black and white stripes, with the letters L. A. R. C. on the body, really did so closely resemble another flag which had floated for some years past close by, that it had become absolutely necessary to effect a change at the earliest possible opportunity [[ hear, hear. A gen- tleman present had suggested a name which he ( Mr Lee) thought would suit all parties, and he would therefore simply repeat the words of his motion that their name be changed.— Mr Lee's mo- tion having been seconded, was carried unanimously, and Mr Tom W. Charles proposed, seconded by Mr Kent, that the club be henceforth known as the UNDINE ROWING CLUB.— A lengthy discussion followed and other suggestions were made, but the generality of the members were in favour of Undine, and Mr Charles's motion was eventually carried unanimously.— An equally long discussion ensued respecting the colours, and it was eventually carried on the motion of Mr J. H. Lee, who aban- doned the old black and white altogether, seconded by Mr Kent, that the colours of the club be green and amber, worn in f inch vertical stripes round the hat.— After some further business the meeting was adjourned till August 6, the weekly meetings being continued as usual. ARIEL ROWING CLUB. The half- yearly meeting of this club was held on Wednesday, July 1, at Anderton's, Fleet- street; Mr Hopton ( captain) in the chair. The minutes of the previous meeting having been read by Mr W. C. Roney, the hon sec, Wednesday, July 22, was fixed upon for the Ariel and Corsair race, which* wiil be accompanied by a steamer to convey the friends ana members of the Ariel Row- ing Club. 8ome slight alterations were made in some of the rules, and Messrs Methold, Bennett, and Mason were duly elected members of the club. The " fours" are postponed to Aug 15. CHAMBERS AND^ COOPER. A question which has long been mooted in the North as to whether Cooper is not as good, if not a better man than Cham- bers, is likely to be, ere long, satisfactorily set at rest. At a meet- ting held on Monday evening, June 29, at the Sun Inn, Newgate- street, a match was made between the Champion and Cooper, to row a mile, starting at the High Level Bridge, and finishing at Waterson's Gate, on Tuesday, July 28, for £ 100 a side. The race to start one hour. before high water, and they meet at Mr Bagnall's, the Scotch Arms Inn, on July 27, to appoint a referee. The stake- holder has the first £ 25 in his possession, and a deposit of a similar amount is to be made on Monday evening, July 6, at Mr Wm. Blakey's, Adelaide Hotel. TWICKENHAM ROWING CLUB- FOUR- OARED RACE.— The Ladies' Plate— four epergnes and a claret jug, given by the ladies of Twickenham and its vicinity, were rowed for by the members of this club on Friday evening, June 19. A good band was stationed on the island, and there was a large attendance of visitors to witness the racing, which came oft in the following order :— FIRST HEAT. MR VERTUE'S CREW. j MR BOWYEE'S CREW.

MONTHLY MEETING.— The usual monthly meeting of this club was held on Thursday evening, July 2, at the town club house, Union Hotel, Air- street, Regent- street, the Captain, Mr Alfred W. Hill, in the chair ; faced by Mr J. H. Lee, the Deputy Captain. The minutss of the previous meeting having been read and con- firmed, Mr Richard Bennett, of 164, New Bond- street, was unani- mously elected a member. Mr Marshall, the treasurer, then brought forward his report on the state of the club funds, which he considered was a most satisfactory one for so small a club, there being a balance in his hands of over £ 22. Against this were certain liabilities which the club would have to incur during the remainder of the season. Deducting these, the balance at the end of the year would be nearly £ 8, without allowing for out- standing debts, which would considerably increase it. In moving the adoption of this report, Mr Lee dwelt at some length upon the position the club was slowly but surely earning for itself, and evidenced the fact of their now having summer quarters at Putney, and being in treaty for a friendly race with another club, as proofs that they were gradually rising; and were becoming recog- nised on the river, and hoped the members would, by a unanimity of action, do their utmost fo further the interests of the club. The report, which gave general satisfaction, having been adopted, the chairman announced that, in consequence of Barnes Regatta having been fixed for the 18th of July, the Junior Scullers Race of the club, announced for the 18th, would be postponed till the next Saturday, the 25th, when it would be rowed down. The entries would close on the 9th July at the club- house, Air- street. A challenge had also been received from the Excelsior Boat Club, Greenwich, to row the club a friendly four- oared race. He need hardly say that the secretaries of the two clubs would correspond with a view to arranging the match for an early date, and as this would add another to their list of matches, the committee had considered it advisable that the race for prizes presented by himself, and announced for a pair- oared gig race on Aug 6, should be struck off the list. He therefore had much pleasure in announcing that, instead of his prize being a distinct race, he would give the prize for the Senior Scullers Race, already fixed for Sept 19. The above announce- ment necessarily met the approval of all the members, the Senior Scullers Prize being a much more valuable one than that the cap- tain had originally intended to give ; and a cordial vote of thanks was passed to the chairman on the motion ef Mr Tom W. Charles, who hoped the members would repay the captain for hi3 liberality on this and many other occasions by entering in strong force on Sept 19. The most important subject of the evening then came on for discussion, which was the following notice of motion by the Deputy Captain :—" That Rule I. be altered by striking out the words ' London Amateur Rowing Club,' and inserting in their place a name to be chosen at this meeting;" and " That Rule Both boats started wildly, Jones getting away first, but being immediately collared. The crews then remained close together down to the island, where Bond drew away, and won by two or three lengths. FINAL HEAT. Mr Vertue's Crew ( Middlesex Shore) 1 Mr Bond's Crew ( Surrey Shore) 0 They made a good race to the top of the island, but at this point Vertue drew away, and won easily by several lengths. Mr Vincent Griffiths, the hon sec, was umpire in Mr Thorney- croft's little screw steamer, and at the close of the heats Mrs Master ( wife of the vicar, the Rev G. S. Master, M. A.), delivered a short and graceful address to the successful crew, and presented the prizes to them. BARNES AND MORTLAKE AMATEUR REGATTA- This regatta will take place on Saturday, July 18, when in addition to the splendid challenge cup of the value of 80 guineas, for the senior four- oared race, subscribed for last year, and hand- some presentation prizes to the winners, valuable silver prizes will also be offered for competition in the following races :— Four oars ( juniors), pair oars, sculls ( seniors), sculls ( juniors), out- rigged gigs ( juniors), and outrigged gigs ( local tradesmen). The Maria Wood has been engaged for the exclusive use of subscribers and their friends, and will be moored off Barnes- terrace, with a military band on bisard. A steamboat will accompany each race to carry the umpire, and subscribers will have the privilege of going on board. The committee have this year determined to abolish the restriction against the past and present champions and winners of the Diamond Sculls rowing for the Senior Sculls, as they feel that the regatta has now attained such a position that it ought to be entirely open. RESTRICTIONS ON REGATTA ENTRIES. ME EDITOR : 1 am an old rowing man, and naturally take a great interest in all aquatic sports. In my time I have rowed over the old long courses, and have had many a hard struggle, and I am happy to say I am now in as good health as any man of my age, and I believe most of my contemporaries are in a similar condition. 1 attribute my good health in great measure to active exercise in general, and rowing in particular ; and I am quite sure that all men would experience the same satisfactory results if they observed the same simple rules of training that I have. I will not trouble you, however, with any details on the subject of training, as it may be summed up by saying that all proper train- ing should have but one object in view, and that is, the greatest possible amount of health, and that all over exertion should be avoided as unfavourable to that condition. I am led to make these remarks by a consideration of what I witnessed at Henley Regatta. There it was obvious that many ef the men rowed for too many races, and consequently overtaxed their physical powers to an extent injurious to themselves and painful to all who were present at the different races in which they were engaged. I will just give a few instances of what occurred there. The stroke oar of the University College crew was so much distressed at the con- clusion of his sixth race that he was obliged to abandon a race in which he would otherwise have been subsequently engaged ; and this is not to be wondered at, for on the first day he rowed in two four- oared races, and also in one eight- oared race ; and on the second day he rowed in two eight- oared races and one four- oared race, making altogether six races, most of them being strongly contested. Again, the stroke oar of the Brasenose four ( their ad- versaries in one of these races) was so utterly done up at the finish ef the race that for the moment he appeared to lose all self- control, let go his oar, and almoit upset the boat, and after this his name was down for two other races ; luckily both of them were undisputed, or the consequences to him might have been serious. His work for the two days was four eight- oared and two four- oared races, a scullers' arid a pair- oared race. Even this large amount of work ( too much for any man) might accidentally have been considerably increased. Of course it will be readily understood that what I have here termed races were, in some instances, heats ; but heats are in effect races. I may here mention that the same system of one person engaging in too many races prevailed at Henley last year, and at the last Bedford Regatta it was carried to so great an extent, that one young man actual]} 7 rowed over the course eight times in the same afternoon, and attempted to do so a ninth time, but was unable, through exhaustion, to row over more than half the dis- tance. Now reverting to the former part of my letter, where I spoke of long courses, I omitted to say that the pace on those long courses was not so quick, and the labour consequently not so severe as on the short courses of the present day ; take Henley as an example of the latter, here the course is about a mile and a quarter against stream, but it is a continued spurt from end to end, and consequently most distressing and exhausting to the rowers. Now, having stated what I conceive to be wrong, viz, the practice of one person entering for too many prizes at the same regatta, it is only fair that I should point out some remedy, in the hope of putting a stop to the practice, therefore I would suggest that a rule should be enforced at the various regattas to the effect " That no man be allowed to enter for more than two prizes at this regatta the same year.'' I have ventured to trouble you with this communication, in the hope that the committees of the different regattas throughout the country may take its contents into consideration, and prevent as far as they can, by the means I have indicated, this extremely objectionable practice, and a fine, healthy, and manly exercise from becoming the foundation of damaged health and other disadvantages that I need not mention to the competitors, besides causing disappointment to those who come to see the rowing for some particular race. In conclusion, it seems to me that if some rule of the kind I have expressed be not adopted, it is highly probable that the parents or friends of our young rowing men will prohibit their rowing altogether.- Yours, & c, No. 6. July 1, 1863. YACHTING IN FRANCE.— Some interesting matches took place at the Rouen Regatta. There were 16 boats entered, and these were divided into four series. The course extended over 6j miles On the signal to get under weigh being made only 11 competitors proceeded with the match, and the whole of these rounded the first buoy almost together. The Aigrette, however, shortly after wards retired. The remaining 10 yachts being favoured with a good breeze, went over the eourse in very fair style, the Rouennais, M Godefroy, which came in first, traversing the 6| miles in an hour, and winning the general prize, a silver- gilt medal, and also a bronze medal as leader in the first series. The Lemau, M Bon, arrived second, 8aiin after the Rouennais, and won the prize offered for the second series. The Nord, M Arnauld- Deschamps, came in third, lmin after the LSman, and was thus the second of the second series. The first prize of the second series was won by the Rouennais, M Plaquevent, which came in fourth, having accom- plished the distance in lh lOmin. The second prize of the third series was awarded to the Plongeon ; and finally the first prize of the fourth series went to the Salvator, M Egret ; the Neva, M Forestier, having made same mistake in rounding the buoys. The Rouennais, which carried off the leading honours of the day, is rather celebrated in the French aquatic world, having won, in the course of its career, first prizes at Rouen, Dieppe, Fecamp, and Caudebec, to say nothing of second prizes at Quilleboeuf, La Bouille, & c. St Malo Regatta, an event of some little importance in consequence of the character of the competitors who take part in it, and the number of visitors usually attracted from the Eng- lish coasts, is fixed for Sunday, Aug 9. A regatta took place at Boulogne on Sunday, June 28, on the ocsasion of the inaugura- tion of the new bathing establishment in that town. A regatta also took place on Sunday at Chateau- Thierry, on the occasion of the annual fete ef the illustrious La Fontaine, and the sports proved highly successful. At Havre Regatta the yachts compe- ting will be divided into three series, the first comprising craft having a length not exceeding 26ft Sin, the second series a length of from 26ft Sin to 36f » Sin, and the third series still larger yachts. The first prizes are fixed according to the series at £ 12, £ 24, and £ 40, and gold medals will also accompany the money awards. YACHTING IN FRANCE.— The Society des Regates Parisiennes had a match in the basin at Argenteuil on June 28. Out of four- teen yachts which entered, only nine presented themselves. The two favourites were the Leman of Rouen, which was successful in the regattas of the society in 1862, and the Heron, which had made a brilliant debut in a match which came off on May 17. The hopes entertained, however, with regard to these two yachts were de- ceived, victory having remained with the Ondine, a boat con- structed with 16ft floatation, increased this year to 20ft. There was a fresh N. W. breeze, and the course, which comprised three times round the basin, or 11£ miles, was gone over in less than two hours. The Ondine, which had been placed eighth, soon became third, and then passing the Alcyon and Rafaele ob- tained a decided lead, which she maintained to ihe end of the match. The L6man and Hirondelle soon worked into the second and third places, the Heron having carried away some of her rig- gings damage which she lost some time in making good Towards the middle of the third round the Leman and the Hirondelle hoisted additional sail, but failed to overhaul the Ondine. The start had taken place at 1: 15, and seven yachts were timed as fol- lows at the close:— Ondine, M Charles, 3: 4; Leman, M Bon, 3: 5: 15; Hirondelle, M Carlier. 3: 6; Heron, M. Regnauld, 3: 8; Pirate, M Pinel, 3: 10; Roi des Vents, M Benoist- Champy, 3: 10: 30; Alegron, M Pinel, 3: 11: 30. The Rafaele and the Henriette did not complete their course. HAMPTON COUET AND EAST MOULSEY SUBSCRIPTION ANNUAL REGATTA.— This regatta will take place on Thursday, July 30, between twelve watermem and fishermen of theabove places, when prizes to the value of £ 50 will be awarded. Distance in the various heats will be from Hampton Court Bridge to a boat moored off Boyle Farm, Thames Ditton, the residence of Lord St. Leonards, and return to the place of starting. The prizes wiil be contested for under the following regulations :— Four heats in rowing and four heats in punting. The winners of the first, second, and third heats will row and punt in the fourth or final heat for the prizes. The heats to be competed for by two watermen in each boat and two fishermen in each punt. First heat at twelve o'clock, a Pair- oared Race, A. Kilfoyle and V. C. Stone against W. Roger- son and J. Tagg, sen ( blue and white).— Second heat: A Punting Match, J. Tagg and W. Griffin against T. Tagg and T. Whatfora ( red and white).— Third heat: A Pair- oared Race, S. Tagg and H. Tagg against E. Whatford and J. Hedges ( blue and white). The men competing in rowing to punt likewise. Final heat for punt- ing at four o'clock. Final heat for rowing at five o'clock. There will also be other amusemenfs of a varied character. EXCELSIOR BOAT CLUB.— The half- yearly meeting of this club was held at the Club House, Crown and Sceptre Hotel, Green- wich, on Wednesday, July 1, the chair being occupied by the captain, Mr J. E. Brain. The committee's report of their proceed- ings during the past six months was submitted, and unanimonsly approved. The captain stated that the four- oared races between the club and the Corsair Rowing Club had been Jfixed for Satur day, Aug 8, at Putney, and Saturday, AHg 22, at Greenwich. The following proposition was brought forward by the captain, viz, " That the club present a purse of sovereigns to be rowed for by watermen of Greenwich," and the same having been seconded, was unanimously carried, and it was referred to the committee to make all the necessary arrangements. Messrs W. Oswald a;; d Thornton were proposed for election as honorary members. The appointment of crews for the four- oared race in August, for club prizes, was left in the hands of the committee. The meeting then adjourned. THE DOYEY FISHERIES, MACHYNLLETH, NORTH WALES.— It will doubtless be pleasing news to all lovers of the piscatorial art to learn that these well known fisheries are now open for the recreation and amusement of all who take an interest in this sport, which is unusually good in this locality this season. The railway now constructed, through the very heart of the district, gives an easy access for tourists to this " picturesque country, abounding with numerous lakes, rivers, and rivulets, all well stocked with the finny" race. Anglers in the river Dovey have had some good sport of late : for, in the course of the past" week, gentlemen have killed with single rods as many as eight fine sewin, weighing from 31b to 41b each, in the walk " of a day along the banks of the river. The sport in the lakes Penrha'idr and Begeulyn has been tolerably good. The recent Fishery Act has done wonders for the river Dovey, for salmon, salmon mort, and sewin have never been known in such abundance. EEGATTA ON THE TYNE.— It having been some time in con- templation to hold a regatta on the Tyne, of much larger dimen- sions than anything ever attempted there before, a meeting was held on Monday evening, June 29, at Mr T. J. Pickett's, Luncheon Rooms, Grey- street, Newcastle, when Mr Pickett, secretary to the committee, having stated the progress that was being made with regard to the regatta, a number of pecuniary matters were settled, ar. d it is probable that the meeting will be early in August. Mr Wilkinson was present at the meeting, " and announced that, among other prizes, there would be a champion prize, open to the world, and a challenge cup for fours. A letter was also read from Green, the Australian Champion, promising that both himself and Kelly weuld contest in the various races, and there is every probability therefore that the regatta will be a very successful one.

THE £ 2,000 MATCH- JACK HEENAN AND TOM KING.— There was an unusually strong muster of the right sort ut Alec Keene's, Three Tuns, Moor- street, on Thursday night, July 2, to witness the pc sting of a further de- posit of £ 50 a side for this important affair. Neither man was present, but both were properly represented, and the money was duly tabled, l'he next deposit is to be made on Thursdav." July 16, at Mr Henry Bacon's, Rose and Thistle, Londonderry- road, Camberwell, when Tom King has intimated his intention of being DAN CRUTCHLEY AND FRED FISHES.— These well- known Bir- mingham men met on Tuesday, June 30, at Holly Lane, four miles from Walsall, at 9st. 41b, for £ 15 a side. They went to scale the evening previous at Marson's, the Castle Tavern, Hospital- street, and both came within the stipulated weight. An early meeting having been agreed upon at Hednesford. Staffordshire, a move was made thence to Holly Lane, and no time was lost, the men quickly entering the ring, attended by well- known seconds. The condition of both was all that could be desired. The betting commenced at o to 4 on Crutchley, and after the third round 2 and 3 to 1 was laid on him. They quickly got to work. Dan sparred well for an opening, and at last landed his left heavily on Fred's mouthpiece and nasal organ, from which the claret freely flew ( first blood for Crutchley). Fred, however, dashed out right and left, and got slightly on Dan's ribs and nob. but did nothing effective. In the next round Dan got all over Fred's phiz with his left, which he planted heavily. Fisher's returns were weak, leaving not the slightest mark on his opponent. In the third round Dan again had it all his own way, catching Fred a nobbier, from the effects of which he appeared to go groggy, and although ha got home on Dan, yet his blows were still of little force. In the next round Fred made play and got his left well home on Dan's right ogle ( his left optic from birth being useless), which slightly grazed it. This seemed to rouse Dan's mettle, and he again made play, damaging the optic of Fred, and getting on to him heavily. The next rounds were of the same dashing style, Fred not l. avi; g a chance with his opponent. In the seventh round Dan finished by throwing Fred heavily and falling upon him. On standing up" for the eighth round Fred appeared to feel the effects of the fall in the last round, and after feinting a bit Dan again got in with his left on the right ogle of Fisher, and was about to follow up when Fisher, to the surprise of all, extended his hand to Crutchley in token of defeat, after contending twenty- six minutes and eight rounds. Fisher attributes his defeat to having seriously hurt his shoulder; but the general impression was that he had not a chance from the beginning, for he was severely punished about the phiz, whilst Crutchley had not a scratch", with the exception of a slight mark over his right ogle. MORRIS AND DURICIN.— On the merits of this match we are quite as much in the dark a3 ever. Each persists in claiming the money, the referee cannot write, and we have received letters on each side purporting to be written for him, and, of course, giving different versions of the affair. We cannot be bothered any more about the affair, which is only a £ 5 match, and, unless we see some good reason to act otherwise, shall return each man his money.

The second summer handicap of the season took place on Mon- day at Hornsey Wood, and attracted a large number of the gen- tlemen of the sporting world and amateurs to witness the pro- ceedings.

There were six rounds fired ; the guns used were 11- bore or less, and the charge was restricted to ljoz of shot, Nos, 5, 6, or 7. The option, how- ever, was left to competitors of adding to the above charges of shot, half a yard being added to their distance for every one- eighth of an ounce put in. The distances, which had been calculated according to the known merits of the competitors as proved on former occasions, were from 30 yards to 20k, the average distance from the traps being 24 yards. The original entries amounted to 95, and six were posted after publication. All gen- tlemen were to load from the same bowls— except, of course, those using the various descriptions of breech- loaders now in use, who brought their own cartridges. Barber found the birds and pulled. The new rules were strictly observed, the decision of Mr Frank Heathcote, acting as handicapper and referee, being final in case of dispute. The prizes were— first £ 160 and a gold cup, presented by Mr Frank Heathcote, and made by London and Ryder; second £ 85, third £ 50, and fourth the forfeits, amounting to about £ 20.

DEATH OF TOM PADDOCK.— We have this week to record the death of this game and resolute boxer, which took place on Tues- day, June 30, at 41. Percy- street, Tottenham Court- road, the im- mediate cause of death being disease of the heart. Tom, however, had been long in ill- health, and his constitution, naturally very strong, had been gradually breaking, owing to the fast life he had been tempted into during the last few years. At the time of his death he was only in his fortieth year, having been born in 1823. He made his first appearance in the P. R. in December. 1844, with one Parsons, whom he defeated, for £ 20 a side. After this he twice defeated Nobby Clarke, and was thought good enough to cope with the Bold Bendigo; but unfortunately his hasty temper interfered with his chance, and he lost the battle by a foul blow. In the same year he lost a battle with the Tipton Slasher from the same cause. His three battles^ with Harry Poulson, which followed, will long be remembered as perhaps three of the most slashing, desperate matches ever fought. In the first Tom was the loser, but in the other two he just managed to pull through, but not without the most severe punishment. In his two battles with Aaron Jones the brave Tom exhibited equal pluck and no inconsiderable skill, and in each he was the successful competitor, but in neither case had he reason to boast of much superiority in the matter of punish- ment, as an accidental hit might have turned the scale on either day. His defeat of Harry Broome in 1856 was a much easier feat for him, as Harry was stale and quite unfit to fight. This was Tom's last victory, his efforts to wrest the Championship from Tom Sayers, and also from Sam Hurst, both having proved ineffective. In the latter battle it was perceptible to all that Tom was no longer himself, and that it must have been his bold heart alone, and no consciousness of his ancient prowess, that had induced him to face so powerful an antagonist. Although naturally of a violent temper when irritated, Tom was generally liked, and was always looked upon as a brave, straightforwai d'fellow in his profession. For real gameness and determined perseverance against all diffi- culties we have seldom seen his equal— never his superior. We regret to hear he has left a wife in a totally destitute state, and what renders the case worse is, that she is near her confinement. £ 5 has been paid out of the funds of the P. B. A., which are now at their lowest ebb. for poor Tom's funeral, which takes place to- day, July 5, at Finchley, so that from that source nothing can be expected for the widow; but there must be many who knew Tom in his best days who can spare a mite to con- sole the widow in her trouble, and to them we appeal confi- dently on her behalf for assistance. We shall be glad to be the means of conveying their offerings to her. or they can be sent to Alec Keene, who, with commendable zeal, is doing all he can in her behalf. A benefit for her assistance will shortly take place at Hackney Wick. 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 cm 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.

BILLY DUNCANS BENEFIT.— It must not be forgotten that Wednesday, July 8, is fixed for the benefit in aid of the civil and obliging inspector of Ring constabulary, Billy Duncan; and that the affair is to take place at the Grecian Theatre, City- road, where we sincerely hope that Billy will receive that support from the Corinthian patrons of his art, which will convince him that his exertions in the cause of order at the ringside have not been thrown away. It is many years since Billy made an appeal to the public, and he is induced on the present occasion to do so in the hope that the receipts will enable him to establish himself in some business, which may relieve him from the anxieties which his present wandering life necessarily involve. Billy has received promises of assistance from all the leading pugs of the day; and in addition to the exhibition of the Champion's belt, which on this occasion will be shown by Alec Keene and George Brown, who will be our representatives to provethat it is in safe keeping, he wiil show the belts and cups of Alec Keene, Jem Mace, Nat Langham, and other good men and true. The theatrical portion of the en- tertainmenc will include " The Slave" and " Tom and Jerry :" and on the whole the programme is such as, even setting aside the merits of the beneficiaire, should draw a fnll house. BENEFIT FOR JEM MACE.— The friends of Mace are again ral- lying round him since he is once more matched for the Cham- pionship. The benefit is to be on a large scale, commensurate with the occasion, the very best locale for such a purpose having been engaged, namely the Hackney Wick Grounds.

JUNE 25.— The County of Sussex had glorious weather for their annual match at Brighton, which commenced on the above- named day, and was not concluded until Saturday, about half an hour before the time of drawing stumps. The ground was in splendid order, as it always was when under the care of Box, who has now left, and Mr 8te:. t and his committee have the entire manage- ment. The : esultof the contest appeared in our latest edition of last week, and it will have been seen from the long innings made that the wickets mu » t have been like a billiard table. We regret that our space will not allow us to enter fully into details. The Sussex fielding was not so good as it ought to have been, bar Mr Hodson and Stubberfield. Mr Hale was out of order altogether; in fact, for so energetic a cricketer we cannot possibly account for his bad fielding. John Lilly white was unable to play from indis- position, and Mr Fawcett made an excellent substitute. Mr W. S. Norton, the manager of the Kent Eleven, was unable to play owing to unforeseen circumstances, but they found an excellent player in the person of Mr A. C. Wathen. Mr Hodson's 50 was first- class. Ellis also showed up in good form, and Willsher a splendid not- the grour. d find out that the match is over. It is a matter of fact out innings of 59, and very near saving a lo- c, but he could not hat it occurs so often on this ground, but that at the Oval, get any one to stop with him long enough.

Brighton, and other first- class grounds, three days will scarcely suffice to play a match out. In referring to our reports from year to year, of which we give the results below, we fisd that, almost on every occasion we have had to complain of the ground. We are not the only fault finders, and are continually asked the Question, why is it that the ground cannot be got into order ? However, we must leave the subject in the hands of those most immediately concerned, and proceed to the results of all the pre- vious matches:— I st 2d DATE AND PLACE SIDES. inn. inn. Total.

We ought not to pass over Southerton's finely- played innings" of 51, especially as he has been so unfortunate in his county matches this season. Mr Kelson also played in his accustomed good style. Young Lilly white bowled admirably; so did Wisden. Ellis's wicket- keeping was first- rate, as was Fryer's, considering that last winter he had the misfortune to lose an eye.

A well- contested match ( as far as the first innings each) was played on Cowley Marsh on Monday, June 29, between these clubs, when some first- rate play was witnessed at all points, if we ' xcept the slow bowling of the Oxonians, which, in the second innings, was most deservedly punished by their opponents. Ox- food, it will be seen by the score, were seven ahead in their first innings. Witney had made 60 for the loss of four wickets when the game was brought to a close at 7: 15. Score : WITNEY. OXFORD.

The School went in jjrst, scoring 236, Willes hitting freely for 64. and Case, Cotton, and Prince also playing well. The United scored 125, arid following their innings 234, Elkington, Beard, and Over batting finely. This left the School 124 to win, and they went in to hit off the runs. Score: RUGBY SCHOOL. T.

Mitchell— had lost the toss, the Pro- fessionals were informed that they could take possession of the wickets. This they did to the bowling of Traill and Voules. We have to note the'innings of Hayward, who, after the second wicket was down, made his appearance and kept his ground until he saw them all out. Bignall played a very good innings, as did Hearne. Haywarrl's figures were seven fours, eight threes, eleven twos, and singles. Bignall's three fours, a three, three twos, & c; Hearne's two fours, a three, and singles. Byes 19, wide balls 4— total 23! The innings was over at a quarter past five o'clock, and shortly after the great performer of 1S62, Mr Grace ( every one has a year), and Mr De Grey made their appearance, against the bowling of Tarrant and Jackson. They both bowled as if determined to win, and notwithstanding the splendid batting of Messrs Benthall, Lyttelton, and Mitchell, and the de- termined manner in whichMrGrace went to work, the two bowlers managed to get rid of the Eleven for the small score of 113. Grace played on. De Grey's was the first wicket to fall— total 7. Grace's the second— total 19. Then away went the fourth ( Daniel's), and the fifth ( Lyttelton's) for 82; the latter's figures were four fours ( three drives and a leg hit, all from Tarrant) — thus showing his plucky play; he also made a drive from him for a three and a two, the rest were singles. Mr E. D. Walker's, the sixth, went for 87, as did the seventh, Mr Traill's; Mr Wright's, the next, for 90, when Mr Mitchell, who had been play- ing in a masterly manner, was run out; his figures were a four ( drive from Tarrant), three twos, and singles. Ellis's wicket keeping was first- elass, but the fielding generally was bad, but no doubt that may be attributed to the bumpy state of the ground. The slowness of Parr was particularly perceptible. After the professionals had rested awhile, they had again to ap- pear in the field, but the Gentlernen could only give the Players the task of 9 to get. Mr' V. E. Walker played quite in his old form— a rare determined and plucky innings— and had then the bad luck to be got by a " popper" at point; his figures were a five ( drive from Willsher), two fours ( cut and a drive from Jackson), a three, three twos, and singles. Mr Daniel set merrily to work, making two fours ( one a leg hit from Tarrant), three threes, and a single. Mr Wright, with Mr V. E. Walker, brought Wootton on at Tarrant's end. At 2: 35 on Tuesday the great gentlemen and players'match may have been considered " all over," the players having only 9 to get to win, which, however, cost them two wickets. Hearne made a leg hit from Grace's fast bowling, the first ball, for 4. Mr V. E. Walker indulged in one of his original performances, throwing Hearne out; the Players therefore won by eight wickets.

On Monday, June 22, a match was played on the beautiful ground at Enville between eleven of Lord Stamford's Household and the ancient town of Kinfare. The townsmen were marshalled to the field by their doughty champion, Mr Mathews, whilst the leadership of the Enville band was devolved upon the gallant and weather- beaten hero, Toy. Upon such a captain victory was com- pelled to smile her sweetest smile. He, like a prudent general, petitioned for the aid and assistance of Lord Stamford, and by his help was enabled to vanquish the generous foe. The Kinfare Eleven first appeared at the wickets, against the bowling of Mr Payne and Lord Stamford. The wickets began to fall rapidly, when, to stop the slaughter, Capt Toy took the ball, and by his judicious delivery of it restored the hitting powers of the be- wildered, and enabled them to realise a total of 63. Against such a score the men of Enville approached the wickets with elated hopes. Lord Stamford himself made the large score of 87, ob- tained in a masterly manner; the rest of the eleven did nothing particularly worthy of comment, though the captain's debut received the plaudits of his comrades, yet his hitting powers and agility were cruelly cut short by the relentless ball. The innings, ho wever, terminated for 176, leaving a balance in favour of Enville of 113. In the second innings of Kinfare the score only reached 42, giving the victory to Enville in one innings and 71 runs to spare. Score: ICINFARE. lst inn J.

This match was played at the Priory Park, Chichester, on Mon day and Tuesday, June 29 and 30, in this beautiful ground, which is in excellent order, and the day being a general holiday in the city, the attendance was large. There was good cricket on both sides, and it was anybody's game till towards the close of the second day, when the Park it e- put the steam on and went in and won in a canter by 45 runs.

This match was commenced at Chelford on Monday, June 29, and finished on the evening of the 30th, after a spirited and in- teresting match, marred only by rain, which occasionally stopped the play, and made the ground heavy. The Southerners were led in their attack by General Salt, but for once their assault was unsuccessful, as the North defeated them with several i « t- talions in reserve. It should be mentioned that one of the men of the South, though he refused to be a slaycd- un, etill was left on the field at the end of the second day's fighting unharmed. Many of his attempts to add to the score ' of his side not' a little resembled Bull's runs. Score: SHROPSHIRE. 3st inn G. Fisher, c M. Yates, b W. G.\,; Armitstead C. Liddell. b '> y. G.

It was whispered on the ground that a dinner invitation , Oh Jupiter, Oh mores i had seduced the youth- ful affections of one ( generally) active and trustworthy man of Cheshire. Another absentee needed a reminder that fraternal affection, like the Aristotelian virtues, may be carried into excess. However, some youthfulauxiliaries came to help the defenders of their county, and fortune favoured their brave efforts. Score: COUNTY OF CHESTER. 1st inn 2d inn W. G. Armitstead, C.

This match was played at Streatham on Tuesday, June 30, and resulted in an easy victory for Upper Tooting in one innings, with five runs to spare. Mr F. F. Fowler, who received the first ball, played a splendid innings for 61 ( not out), without giving a chance. The bowling of Messrs E. and A. Turner and P.

The ordinary inquiry for commercial purposes is not excessive, the specie movement continues favourable, and it is consequently thought that the rates of discount will recede rather than ad- vance. Trade is in a very prosperous state, and the commercial results of the year are likely to bear favourable comparison with many of its predecessors. The only features of importance at the Stock Exchange are a marked diminution of the speculative ac- tivity as regards foreign stocks, and a reactionary tendency after the extraordinary elevation to which many of the favourite de- scriptions have recently ascended. Consols closed yesterday ( Friday) afternoon at 924 \ for money and the account. The dealings in the Foreign Stock Market during the week have not been very extensive, and in several instances prices have shown increased depression. Greek Bonds have declined about 2 to 2j per cent, Mexican Stock 1 per cent, and Spanish Passive Bonds 1 per cent. Turkish Securities were also Hatter; the Loan of 1838 has receded about j, the Loan of 1862 f, and the Consolid^ s 1 per cent. Brazilian, Portuguese, Spanish, and Dutch Bonds were without material variation. The chief business attended to in the Railway Share Market has been the liquidation of the account, and prices generally have shown less firmness. Caledonian have declined about £ 1, Great Western £ 1 10s, Lancashire and Yorkshire 15s, Midland £ 1, and South Eastern £ 1; while Brighton have improved 10s, North Western £ 1, London and Blackwall £ 1, and North Eastern ( Berwick) 10s. The foreign and colonial undertakings remained inactive, without any material change in values. Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares have been dealt in to a fair extent, and in some few instances a slight improvement has been established. SATURDAY EVENING. A firmer tone prevailed in the English Stock Market to- day, and Consols improved about J, closing at 92j | for money and the account. In the Foreign Market, Greek Bonds advanced to 35f J, and the Coupons to 16f £. Turkish Consolid^ s were also firmer, and closed at 50j f, and Mexican Stock rose to 37 § f. Railway, Joint Stock Bank, and Miscellaneous Shares were without material change in values. HORNSEY v GREAT MARL0W- This old annual match was revived on the beautiful ground o the latter, on Saturday, June 27, and was won, for the first time with great ease, by the Hornsey gentlemen. Dyne played two fine innings, hitting out of the ground in two consecutive balls; his_ bowling also proved too much for the countrymen, taking 15 of their wickets. The only regret was the absence of the Great Marlow Captain, who, for some unknown reason, left his men alone to bear the ignominy of defeat. Score: HORNSEY. 1st inn 2d inn M.

HAVERSHAM VAGRANTS v ST0NEY STRATFORD- On Wednesday, June 17, and Saturday, June 20, two matches • were played between the above clubs, en the Stratford Ground The Haversham Vagrants is a new club, started ( in North Bucks) by the Kev A. B. Frazer, rector of Haversham, and already num- bers many good players from Oxford and Cambridge Universities and the public schools. The members being so widely spread, it is almost impossible ever to play the real strength of the club ; hence, as in the present matches, we shall often expect to find nearly half of the players substitutes for better.

Its performances have been varied this week by an excellent representation of Verdi's " Balio in Mas- chera," in which the new Oscar, Mdlle Volpini, has again created a furore by the spirit and energy which she displays in this triding part. Her execution of " Saper vorresti'' is quite a fea- ture, and on Tuesday night the demand for its repetition was universally expressed by the audience. Signor Delle Sedie gave great effect to the part of Benato, and sang the pathetic aria which is the gem of the opera (" Eri tu ehe macchiavi") with such intense feeling as to compel his auditors to encore it. In the masquerade scene Mdlle Pocchini made her appearance in a pas cle deux with M Fissi after an absence of three years, and spun across the stage in one of those peculiarly fascinating steps which have won her so many admirers. The little lady seems to have grown stouter since her last visit to this country. Bellini's opera of " Norma" is the next revival on the list, Mdlle Titiens and Mdlle Artot appearing together as Norma and Adelgisa, and Signor Geremia Bettini appearing for the first time on these boards as Pollio, a new Oroveso likewise making his debut in the shape of Signor Bagagiolo. The subscription nights will termi- nate next week. MADAME BISTORI.— This great tragedienne has appeared in an Italian version of " Macbeth," in " Maria Stuarda," and in various other tragedies, with an amount of success commensurate with her genius. " Adrienne Lecouvreur" and a new setting of Norma'' will be amongst the next of her representations. ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA.— After more than one postponement the opera of " Faust" was produced by Mr Gye on Thursday night before a very full audience, who departed from the usual coldness habitual to the theatre, and applauded M Gounod's beautiful opera with genuine enthusiasm. The scenery, dresses, decorations, and embellishments are all new, and of the most costly description; the mise en scene as fine as it possily could be. The band did their duty with even more than their accustomed excellence, and the chorus were up to the mark, and aided the effect of the second and third acts to very considerable purpose. Madame Miolan- Carvalho is a charming'Marguerite, personating as well as looking the very character to the life; but Signor Tam- berlik seemed out of place as Faust, and did not in any degree ap- proach the ideal of Goethe's grand conception. Madame Didi6e was costumed after the true mediaeval type as Siebel, and Signor Graziani as Valentine looked stalwart and martial enough. M Faure gave a most remarkable and striking illustration of the fiend Mephistophiles ; every pose and attitude were replete with meaning, and showed a thorough acquaintance with the poet no less than the musician's meaning. The chorus of old men in the second act, and the noble and military burst of triumph sung by a stage full of people, were both encored. The garden scene was admirably sung, and Madame Carvalho never appeared to more advantage than in the passage where, overcome by emotion, she sinks into the arms of her lover, every shade of feeling being most elegantly expressed. M Gounod was called at the close of the third act, and appeared, after some little delay, to receive the warm welcome of the delighted auditory. ST JAMES'S THEATRE.— This theatre has closed, after a season in which, owing to the elaborate portraiture by Miss Herbert of Lady Audley, the drama of " Lady Audley's Secret" has had a run of 104 nights. PRINCESS'S THEATRE.— The new French actress, Mdlle Stella Colas, gains ground in the estimation of the habitues of this thea- tre. Her performance of Juliet must be reckoned as one among the many attractive features of this present season. PHILHARMONIC CONCERTS.— At the last of these concerts for the season, Mdlle Artot and Signor Delle Sedie were the vocalists, and something more than a word of praise is due to them for their highly finished rendering of the duet for soprano and bari- tone, from the " Favorita." No more faultless execution has at any time been heard, and the audience applauded the singers with an energy which testified to their due appreciation of their merits. THE SHAKSPERE MONUMENT.— Detached scenes from some of the principal plays of the great dramatist, played by some of the leading actors and actresses of the day, formed the staple of an entertainment given at Drury- lane Theatre on Monday night last, the proceeds being set apart as a fund for the monument to be erected to him in London. The most noticeable feature of the occasion was the reappearance, as Rosalind, of Miss Helen Faucit, this lady having for too long a period absented herself from the scene of her former triumphs. The theatre was, we are sorry to say, not very full, and the entertainments had the fault of being too drawn out, a common mistake made by benefit takers and those who desire to draw on some occasions of importance. b Astell b Bosanquet c Popham, b Astell.

SURREY v CAMBRIDGESHIRE. We are sorry to have to inform our readers that, owing to a com- munication received from Mr H. Perkins of Cambridgeshire, this match is off at the Oval, but another excellent one has been substituted, viz, that of the Professionals of Surrey against the Gentlemen of the South, which will include Middlesex, Sussex, Hants, Surrey, and Kent. The postponement of the Cambridge- shire match is much to be regretted, mora especially as we hear that it is in consequence of the refusal of Carpenter; Hayward, And Tarrant to play for their county. WKEXHAM v DINGLE.— This match was played on Monday, June 22, on the ground of the latter, at Prince's Park, Liverpool, and owing to the fine batting and bowling of Sharp and Coward, and the general good play of the Wrexham Eleven, resulted in an easy victory, they having lost only six wickets for 211 runs, when time was called. The fielding of the Dingle eleven was much admired. Score: Dingle 81, Wrexham 211 ( with six wickets down). FRESHWATER V MR SQUIRE'S ELEVEN.— This match was played at Freshwater on June 27. Owing to the counter attrac- tions of photography, as well as the loss of their two best bowlers, Freshwater only sent nine men to the wickets in the first innings; to this in a great measure may be attributed their defeat by five wickets. F. Isaacson played a fine innings of 33, and Corporal 8hoesmith a steady one of 24. Score: Freshwater 71 and 26, Mr Squire's Eleven 61 and 37 ( with five wickets down). BENEFIT MATCH.— A match in aid of the funds of the Poplar Benevolent and Accident Relief 8ociety will be played at the Spotted Dog, Upton, Essex, on Monday, July 6, between eleven of the Poplar Club and eighteen of the Phoenix United. The band of the fourth and fifth ( Poplar) companies of the 2d Tower Hamlets Rifle Volunteers will be in attendance. The trains of the London, Tilbury, and Southend Railway ( calling at the Plaistow station) will run at intervals during the day. OXFORD AND CAMBRIDGE COLLEGE SERVANTS.— It is now definitely arranged for the Oxford and Cambridge College Ser- vants to " play their first match on the 27th and 28th of July, at Cambridge, where an eight- oar race will also take place. The Cantabs will visit Oxford to play the return matches, & c, on the • tth August. The meeting will afford the servants of both univer- sities an excellent opportunity of enjoyment. DINGLE V ROYAL ROCK FERRY.— This match was played at Rock Ferry on Saturday, June 6, and time only allowing one in- nings to be played, the result was an easy victory for Dingle by 98 runs. Mr Macintyre's 77 was well made, as were also the scores of Messrs Campbell and Bent. Bird and Watson placed well for Rock Ferry, but the R. F. fielding was not very good. Score: Dingle 201, Rock Ferry 103. DINGLE V NEW BRIGHTON.— This match was played at New Brighton on Saturday, June 20, a magnificent day for cricket. Dingle having won the toss took first innings, for which they used nearly the whole afternoon, making a drawn game, but de- cidedly in favour of Dingle. New Brighton had the able assistance of Messrs Grant and Butter of the Liverpool Club. Score: Dingle 208, New Brighton 32 ( with three wickets down). OSWESTRY V OVERTON.— This match was played at Oswestry on Saturday, June 20, and resulted in the Overton Club beating the Oswestry in one innings and 34 runs to spare. The day was beantifully fine, and a great concourse of poople assembled to witness the sport. Score: Overton 118, Oswestry 41 and 43. FAKENHAM V HOLT.— The first match of the Fakenham Club was played on Wednesday, June 17, against the Holt Grammar School. The play of the former club deserves great credit, considering the few opportunities they have for practice, and the well- known good play of the latter. Score: Fakenhani 31 and 29, Holt 27 and 34. KENNIMGTON v PUTNEY CLARENCE.— A match was played be- tween these clubs on Tuesday, June 23, at the Oval, Kenmngton, which resulted in the defeat of the former, Putney scoring 91 in the first innings against 61 on the part of the Kennington. Put- ney in the second innings obtained 62, whilst their opponents scored 30 ( with two wickets down). The game was not played out PASSING EVENTS. Married, on the 30th ult, Mr James Calder, to Miss Mary Weston, both of Worcester. DEATH OF PRINCE FREDERICK FERDINAND OF DENMARK.— The hereditary Prince Frederick Ferdinand of Denmark, heir to the Danish Crown, born Nov 22, 1792, died suddenly on Monday morning, June 29. The prince was uncle to the King of Den- mark, and great uncle to her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales. NATIONAL RIFLE ASSOCIATION.— The minimum charge for a volunteer non- commissioned officer or private camping at Wim- bledon will be 5s, which, on arriving, he will have to pay to the camp adjutant. This payment will entitle him to remain in amp five nights without further charge; but for every night be- yond five he will have to pay Is. MADAM TUSSAUD.— The last two effigies added to this historical gallery, are the best two it contains, and are worthy of unqualified prai- ae. Moreover they are of worthies of whose reputation Englishmen may be proud— viz, of the hero of Cressy, and of the conqueror at Agincourt— Ed ward the Black Prince, and Henry the Fifth. The resemblances to the originals may be relied upon for their correctness and authenticity of portraiture. They are the work of one of the best modellers in this country, and ap'art from the sympathies which all will feel for them as illustrious princes are works of fee highest rank in fclne£ ng arts. DESTRUCTIVE FIRE IN LIVERPOOL.— A destructive fire broke out in Water- street, in a large warehouse filled with cotton and grain, on Friday morning. It was raging at the time we went to press, but is apparently under control. The loss will be very heavy, amounting to nearly £ 200,000. The value of the cotton in the building is estimated at £ 150,000. The amount of insurance, principally upon the cotton, is said to be over £ 80,000. FATAL COLLIERY EXPLOSION.— On Saturday, June27, an explo- sion of fire- damp took place at the Park Colliery, Glamorgan- shire, belonging to Messrs Thomas and Co, near Bristol Ferry. Happily, at the time when the explosion took place the greater part of the men were above ground, and to this circumstance is no doubt to be ascribed the fact that the loss of life was not more ex- tensive. As soon as it became known that the fire- damp had ex- ploded in the mine, large numbers of the families and friends of the colliers assembled around the mouth of the pit, which is de- scended by a shaft to a depth of 260ft, eager to ascertain the state of those below. Mr R. Thomas and Mr Woozley, two of the partners, were promptly on the spot, as also were the managers, the Government inspector of mines, Mr T. Evans, Dr Whitty, Dr Evans, & c. As soon as the effects of the explosion had sufficiently subsided to admit of a search being made the shaft was descended by persons who succeeded in bringing up three dead bodies, viz, those of R. Evans, F. Jenkins, and T. Griffiths, and several other men who had been extensively burnt. Amongst the latter were W. Lewis, T. Arnold, G. Davies, J. Lewis, T. Davis, & c. The poor creatures presented a shocking spectacle, owing to the extent of their burns. Attention was promptly rendered to them by the medical gentlemen in attendance, but it is feared that some of them will not survive. STEAMER STRANDED AT VENTNOR.— Intelligence reached Portsmouth on Wednesday morning that a small iron passenger steamer, named the Chancellor, which has since the 29th of June been appointed to run from the new railway pier in Stake's Bay, opposite to Ryde, to Ventnor Bay, on the south side of the Isle of Wight, was stranded amid the rocks on the beach close by a new and only partially finished pier. The admiral commanding despatched the Comet and Lucifer steam- tugs from the dockyard to her assistance, and later on Her Majesty's paddle steamer Sphynx arriving at Spithead from China, he signalled her to follow immediately. All three vessels, finding it was impossible to communicate or give any effective assistance, returned to port in the afternoon. It has since been ascertained that the vessel has broken in two amidships. The misfortune is owing to no fault of the captain's, but must rest on the pier managers, who caused him to bring the vessel in by misleading him about the depth of water, and gave him a chart showing that part clear of rocks. The vessel has just cost £ 6,000, and since then £ 400 for outfit to enter upon the passage between Stake's Bay railway pier and the Isle of Wight. It appears that the passage between Stake's Bay and Ventnor Bay has been commence d before the new pier had been finished, and before the adjoining rocks Y\ a& been cleared away, and to these circumstances must be atttV buted the loss of the Chancellor. No lives have been lost, t passengers having landed on the pier before the vessel struck on the ground. LICENSED VICTUALLERS' FETE.— The annual dinner of the Licensed Victuallers' Schools was held on Wednesday in the Ash- burnham Pavilion at Cremorne- gardens, and was attended by nearly 2,000 persons. Captain Townshend, of the firm of Samuel Allsopp and Co, was in the chair. After the usual toasts were drunk, the toast of the evening, " Success to the Schools," was proposed, and Mr 8malley, the secretary, read the list of sub- scriptions, Messrs Allsopp heading it with a donation of £ 1,000. In proposing " The Healths of the Officers of the Institution," the Chairman announced that the secretary, Mr Smalley, who was himself brought up in the schools, had just handed in a check for the munificent sum of 1,000 guineas, desiring thereby to evince his gratitude to the institution which had given him the means of making his first step in life. The announcement was received with prolonged cheering. Nearly £ 4,000 was subscribed during the evening towards the funds of this excellent charity. After the dinner a ball took place in the gardens, which was kept up to a very late hour. SUICIDE IN A RAILWAY TRAIN.— An inquest has just been held at Newark on the body of a Frenchman named Viscount des Maires. Mr F. Douglas, surgeon in Her Majesty's Indian service, stated that he joined the Edinburgh express train at Berwick, having a through ticket to London. He got into a compartment with the deceased and Dr Lowe. He had very slight conversation with the deceased, merely an interchange of common civilities. Both gentlemen were stra'ngers to him. He asked them if they objected to his smoking, and they replied in the negative. They all three then lighted their cheroots, and afterwards dozed. When the train got to York he asked the deceased, in French, if he would get out for refreshment. He sairi, " No, I do not wish to get out." Witness and Dr Lowe went into the coffee- room, and then returned to the carriage. After the train had proceeded half a mile, deceased lighted his cher « ot again. Shortly before the train reached Newark witness and Dr Lowe were dozing, being very tired. Suddenly he heard a report or crack, which caused him to start. His first impression was that some part of the machinery was broken. Before he had time to think the de- ceased fell on the bottom of the carriage with his head on wit- ness's knee, blood gushing over the seat on which he was sitting. Witness exclaimed, " Good God, the Frenchman has shot him- self." Dr Lowe immediately waved his hat to attract the atten- tion of the guard. Death was instantaneous, he never groaned or moved, and a small pistol was hanging on his finger. He seemed to be perfectly collected all the way from Berwick, and was smoking quietly. On arriving at the Newark station they called to the guard, and the body was removed. After other evidence had been offered, the jury returned a verdict ta the effect " that the deceased took away his own life, but there was no evidence to show the state of his mind.'' THE BELL'S LIFE AND OBSERVER COMPANIONSHIP.— The thir- teenth annual dinner, or wayz- goose, of the establishment of BelPs Life in London and Observer took place on Tuesday last at Mr Stone's, the Ship, Lower Halliford. The employes left the office in two four- horse omnibuses at half- past eight in the morning and proceeded to Halliford, where they were joined by the editors and staffs, and after enjoying themselves in various ways the party sat down to an excellent dinner, the senior proprietor presiding, faced by Mr Thomas Hall. After dinner the usual toasts were . given, and the companionship did not break up till nine o'clock, when they started home by moonlight, every one Ii& Ming. thoroughly enjoyed himself. HOUSE OF LORDS. MONDAY— NEW ZEALAND.— Lord LYTTELTON presented a petition from Taranaki, New Zealand, relative to the dis- tress which had been brought upon the inhabitants of that province in consequence of hostilities with the natives. He admitted it was desirable that the colonies should be respon- sible for their internal defence, but this principle had not been adopted by the Colonial Office with respect to New Zealand, where the control of native affairs had been vested in the hands of the Government, and not of the colonists. It was therefore only just that this country, before giving up the management of native affairs to the colonists, should see them out of the difficulties in which they had been involved through no fault of their own. As soon as this was done, the relation of the colony with the mother country ought to be altered without delay, but not until then. In Taranaki the farms of the settlers had been destroyed, the people were cooped up in the town, and forbidden to go to their homesteads ; the Maori king exercised sovereign rights, stopped the roads, prevented the passage of the mails, and armed natives held lands which the settlers had bought from the Crown and had cultivated for many years.— The Duke of NEWCASTLE denied that the Government meditated abandoning the colonists in their difficulties, and said that none of his despatches contained one word that would bear that construction. He maintained, however, that the war was begun with the cordial support of the colonists themselves for their sole benefit, and that in spite of it the colony had made won- derful progress. The governor of the colony (" Sir G. Grey) was pursuing a wise, statesmanlike, resolute, and humane policy, and he was most sanguine of its results.— Earl GREY was afraid that the policy of the Government was a false one. The root of the evil was the constitution of New Zealand, and although the ability of Sir G. Grev might overcome its defects for the pre- sent, the mischief would break out again.— After a few words from Lord LYVEDEN the subject dropped. TUESDAY— POLISH LADIES AND THEIR TREATMENT. — Lord RUSSELL, in reply to Lord Shaftesbury, stated that a re- cent rumour to the effect that ladies in Poland appearing in mourning after the issue of an order to the oontrary by General Mouravieff would be knouted was untrue. He had received a communication from ourambassador in St Petersburg to the effect that ladies contravening that order were liable to a fine, but no- thing was said about subjecting them to the knout. AMERICA.— In reply to a question from Lord Campbell, Lord RUSSELL stated that the French ambassador had called on him and contradicted the rumour that the Emperor of the French was de- sirous of making propositions ta the English Government with a view to bring about a cessation of hostilities in America. THE IONIAN ISLANDS.— Lord DERBY, in moving for a copy of the proclamation issued by Sir Henry Storks for the annexation of the Ionian Islands to Greece, protested against the doctrine laid down by Lord Palmerston that, as the Ionian Islands had been placed under the protectorate of Great Britain, the Parlia- ment of this country had no interest in any question which in- volved the removal of that protectorate. He particularly dwelt on the folly and danger of relinquishing the costly and strong fortifications of Corfu, and urged ttiat the cession of these islands without the consent of Austria, Prussia, and especially Turkej', whose interests were most seriously affected, was neither an act of good faith towards those powers, nor consistent with the condi- tions which Lord Russell had himself laid down in his pro- gramme on the subject. He wished to ascertain the proceedings which had been adopted by the Government, and whether in the cession about to take place any arrangements had been made for the payment of pensions, salaries, and allowances for which Her Majesty's Government was pledged ; and also what provisions had been made for the repayment of the loan made by this country to Greece. He considered the cession would be neither advantageous to England, beneficial to the Ionian Islands, nor likely to conduce to the harmony of European arrangements.— Lord RUSSELL, in expressing his opinion that it was no discredit to Her Majesty's Government to have consulted the wishes and happiness of the people of the Ionian Islands, denied that the decision to cede them had been either sudden or precipitate. The wish for annexation was only natural, and had been long ex- pressed by both the islanders and the Greeks, and had been mooted some years ago by the Greek Minister in this country.— Lord DERBY wished to know whether the proclamation issued by Sir H. Storks would be laid on the table.— The Duke of NEW- castle stated that no proclamation had been issued, but that, on the receipt of the intelligence at Corfu of the proclamation of the new King of Greece, a demonstration in honour of England had been made by the people of Corfu. He defended himself from a charge of change of opinion in regard to the propriety of ceding these islands made by Lord Derby.— Lord STRATFORD DE RED- CLIFFE entertained strong doubts as to whether, by ceding the Ionian Islands, we were doing a service to Greece, but was con- vinced that the cession would diminish our influence in the East. — Lord DERBY then withdrew his motion.— Lord CHELMSFORD called attention to the papers laid upon the table as to the re- moval of the two Ionian judges, and asked certain questions re- garding pensions to persons in the Ionion Islands. Is the course of his remarks he made a most bitter attack on the Government for sanctioning the removal of the two judges by Sir H. Storks.— The Duke of NEWCASTLE vindicated the conduct of Sir H. Storks and the Government, and asserted that the two judges were poli- tical demagogues, who, having secretly plotted to bring the Government to a dead lock, had in consequence not been continued in office. He had been compelled, by the imprudence of Lord Chelmsford, and in justice to other individuals, to make the strong statements he had ; but he gave him notice that, if a motion were made for further papers, he should plead the exigency of the public service and decline to produce them. THURSDAY- BRITISH COLUMBIA AND HUDSON'S BAiT.— The Duke of NEWCASTLE, in moving the second reading of the British Columbia Boundaries Bill, gave a long and interest- ing account of the progress of that colony, and of the steps that had been taken to develop its resources. He stated that negotia- tions had been entered into for the sale of the interests of the Hudson's Bay Company to the International Financial Associa- tion, which intended to issue 2,000,000 shares for the establish- ment of another company, which would stand exactly in the posi- tion of the Hudson's Bay Company, the International Financial Association being only intermediate agents. Sir Edmund Head and several most responsible persons were to be at the head of the new company, and their names were a guarantee that it would not be used for mere speculative purposes.— Lord DONOUGHMOEE thought, as there was to be a transfer of the rights of the Hudson's Bay Company, it would be a good opportunity to ascertain what those rights were.— Lord TAUNTON feared that the transfer of the rights and charter of the Hudson's Bay Company would remove the seat of the fur trade from London to New York, as he had reason to believe that the principal agents of the new company to be formed were Americans. He highly eulogised the Hudson's Bay Company, and thought it would be better, in order to obtain further information as to the transfer of its charter, to postpone the second reading for a few days.— After a few words from the Duke of NEWCASTLE and Lord CHELMSFORD, the bill was read a second time. FRIDAY- PUBLIC BUSINESS.— The British Columbia Boundaries Bill, the Jurisdiction of Justices Bill, and the Oaths Relief in Criminal Proceedings ( Scotland) Bill severally passed through committee. The report of amendments to the Naval Medical Supplemental Fund Society Winding- up Act ( 1861) Amendment Bill and the report on the amendments to the Telegraph Bill were brought up and received. OXFORD UNIVERSITY.— Earl RUSSELL presented a petition from certain heads of colleges, professors, fellows, and tutors of the University of Oxford for removing the present subscription required for academical degrees. The noble lord thought there was danger in multiplying declarations that were not now neces- say, and thought the university should throw its doors open to all without requiring from them a declaration of assent to the thirty- nine articles.— The Earl of DERBY thought there had not been time for the opponents to the petition to express their opinion.— After some discussion, which was in favour of the peti- tion, the subject dropped. The house then adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS. MONDAY-— DISTRESS IN THE MANUFACTURING DIS- TRICTS.— On the order for considering the Public Works ( Manu- facturing Districts) Bill as amepded, Mr BENTINCK said he wished to know whether the security taken under the bill was ample ; whether the distress which existed was not due as much to overtrading as to a deficiency in the supply of cotton ; and also whether the measure was likely to provide sufficient funds to meet the existing distress without another appeal to Parliament. — Mr FERRAND called attention to the great number of unmarried women thrown out- of employment in the cotton districts, and asked what was to become of them during the ensuing winter. He feared that the distress in Lancashire and Cheshire would be very severe, and he implored the Government to take measures, by emigration and other means, to avert the deplorable consequences which prolonged inactivity must entail.— Mr VILLIKRS said he did not believe in what Mr Bentinck vaguely termed " over- trading," as he considered the present state of affairs attributable solely to the scarcity of cotton. The measure was not intended to be permanent, but was merely designed to meet a temporary emergency; moreover, it was not the only measure which the Government had in contemplation, as they intended to propose a continuance of the rate- in- aid measure of last session. There was also a large balance in hand from the contributions of the public, a portion of which could be made available during the winter. With regard to the bill under discussion, the Government had already received applications for advances, and that very morn- ing information had been received that the town of Blackburn intended laying out £ 100,000 on public improvements. THE AMERICAN BLOCKADE.— Mr PEACOCKE brought under notice the stoppage of our trade with neutral ports in America by Federal States cruisers and the decisions of the American prize courts, and invited the Government to furnish the house with its definition of what was a lawful traffic. According to international law no neutral vessel sailing under a neutral flag, and going from one neutral port to another, was liable to capture, whatever her cargo might be; but several cases had occurred in which English vessels had been seized by Federal cruisers on their voyage from English ports to other neutral ports. The hon mem- ber urged upon the Government the necessity of employing greater vigilance for the protection of our commerce on the high seas.— The SOLICITOR- GENEBAL said that, Matamoras being a frontier town separated by a river from Texas, it was clear that vessels bound thither, whatever their papers might set forth, had opportunities of landing contraband on Texan territory. The doctrine of the law was clear that, if the cargo was destined to be landed on the neutral or Mexican side, there could be no ground for the confiscation of the vessel, and that doctrine had been admitted by the prize courts, amongst other cases in that of the Will- o'- the- Wisp. The practice of the American prize courts was identical with that of this country, from which, in fact, it had been borrowed in the time of Lord Stowell; and so far Her Majesty's Government had no reason to complain of the decisions of those tribunals.— Lord R. CECIL complained of the partial and arbitrary conduct of the Federal Government in dealing with British ships seized by her cruisers, and contended that nothing could be more unjust than to seize and condemn those vessels on presumptive evidence only that the cargo was ultimately intended to find its way into the Confederate States.— Mr COBDEN replied to the objections taken by Lord Robert Cecil, and contended that although it might be conceded that our trade with Matamoras was impeded by the activity of the Federal cruisers, still that if British merchants chose to enter into such hazardous enterprises, contrary to the injunction contained in the Queen's proclamation, they had no right to complain of the consequences. He held that it was absurd and unreasonable to maintain that the large trade which had lately sprung up between London and Liverpool and Matamoras was not intended to furnish the Confederates with the supplies which the blockade of their own ports prevented them receiving in a legitimate manner.— Mr SEYMOUR FITZGERALD protested against the doctrine held by Mr Cobden, and those who shared his opinions, that British vessels trading with neutral ports and carrying arms, ammunition, or supplies were neces- sarily engaged in a contraband trade of which another neutral power had aright to complain. The Government of the Federal States was not entitled to seize British vessels bound for Mata- moras or any other neutral port, merely on suspicion that the cargo was really intended for the use of the Confederates.— The subject then dropped. A long discussion then took place on the subject of the Ecclesi- astical Settlement of Ireland, which was ultimately adjourned. TUESDAY.— RECOGNITION OF THE SOUTH.— Mr ROE- BUCK moved an address ta Her Majesty, praying that she will be pleased to enter into negotiations with the great powers of Europe, for the purpose of obtaining their co- operation in the recognition of the independence of the Confederate States of North America. He was well aware, he said, of the importance of this question, and of the obloquy to which he should expose himself by this motion, but in spite of this he made an appeal to the house to do what he asked. In order to make his argument complete, he traced the history of the United States from the period of the colonisation of their territory to the establishment of their inde- pendence, which, he observed, introduced two principles of inter- national morality, called international law; first, that any body of people desiring to throw off their allegiance, if they were able, are entitled to do so; secondly, that as we made peace with France, who had assisted our revolted colonies, and had acknow- ledged their independence before we had done so, we should be justified in acknowledging the independence of people in the posi- tion of the Southern States of America. He then noticed the uneasy relations which had of late years subsisted between the North and the South: the effects of the tariff upon the latter, and the vain attempts by the South to release itself from its toils. He advocated the acknowledgment of the inde- pendence of the Confederate States, he said, first, because they had vindicated their right to independence; they had resisted the North and conquered the North, having rolled back the tide of invasion; secondly, it was, as he proceeded to show, for our in- terest to recognise their independence. Then had the time arrived for this course of action? He contended that it had. All he asked was that the Government should enter into negotiations with the great powers to obtain their co- operation with us in the recognition of independence. The great powers, he said, meant France; and he gave an account of his interview with the Emperor of the French, and some important declarations made by the Emperor, who gave him, he said, authority to disclose them to that house, quoting His Majesty's very words. In csnclusion, he made an earnest appeal to the house to assent to his motion.— Lord R. MONTAGU, as an amendment, moved a resolution, " That this house earnestly desires that an impartial neutrality should continue to be maintained by Her Majesty's Government during the present unhappy contest in the States of North America. After criticising with some severity the speech of Mr Roe- buck, he insisted upon the impolicy as well as the injustice of the course he had recommended, as well as that suggested in another amendment, of which notice had been given by Mr Maguire. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER thought the house ought to be very cautious in giving British interests a prominent place in the question, which would vitiate every ar- gument in favour of interference. With regard to both the mo- tion and the amendment, his objection was that they involved the assumption that the House of Commons should undertake a funp1 tion which it had not thought it expedient ta assume, the exe?-: cise of a discretion which should be left to the executive Govern- ment, which had cognizance of circumstances occurring day by day. Besides this objection, this particular moment, when mili- tary operations were in progress, upon which vast issues de- pended, was the most unfortunate that could ' be chosen. Then the speech of Mr Roebuck was couched in a spirit of undisguised partisanship towards the South and of hostility to the North. After adverting to the lamentable scenes of the war, he expressed his belief that public opinion in this country was almost- unani- mous that the restoration of the Americau Union by force was impracticable, and that the emancipation of the negro race could not be legitimately accomplished by coercion and bloodshed. He was most anxious that the contest should be brought to an end; but did Mr Roebuck think that recognition would bring it to an end ? If he did he joined issue with him. Recognition, though not inseparably connected with the use of force, was commonly accompanied by it; and recognition of the South would produce reaction in the North. He had more confidence in the influence of public opinion than in diplomatic action, especially on the part of those who might be suspected of selfish and interested motives. A long debate ensued, which was ultimately adjourned till Thursday. WEDNESDAY— WEIGHTS AND MEASURES.— Mr W. EWART moved the second reading of the Weights and Measures Bill, the object of which was to decimalise our weights and mea- sures, making them correspond with those of other countries. Pages, he said, might be tilled with a list of the varieties and anomalies in our measures of quantity and length, which not only embarrassed our internal trade, but our transactions with other countries. He stated the elements of the proposed system, which would rest upon the metre, or new yard, whereby all other mea- sures of extension were to be derived and computed, the units of measures of capacity and weight having relation thereto. The bill was founded upon the report of the select committee of last year, and would not come into operation for three years. He replied to the objections he anticipated to the measure, insisting that the disadvantages attending the introduction of the metrical system would be slight and transitory, while the inconveniences of the present system were intolerable.— Mr HENLEY suggested various objections to the proposed new system, and that the prac- tical question was whether the change would not cause greater evils and inconveniences to the greatest number than it would remove. He thought it would, and should oppose the bill.— A lengthened debate ended in a division, when the second reading was carried by 110 to 75. The house soon afterwards adjourned. THURSDAY— AMERICA — Some conversation took place on the subject of the proposed intervention in America, but the de- bate on Mr Roebuck's motion was again postponed, it being understood that Lord Palmerston would be present next Monday, when he would be able to fix a day for its resumption. THE EXHIBITION BUILDING.— In Committee ot Supply, the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved a vote of £ 105,000, for the purchase of land and buildings at Kensington Gore. After asking the house to look at this question as a dry matter of busi- ness, and touching upon a few preliminary points, he proceeded to state the nature and extent of the discretion sought by the Government. He explained the course taken by them to obtain information as to the estimate of expense, and then suggested to the committee the situation in which the Government and the house would be likely to be placed, if, after the important step already taken for the purchase of the land, they should stop short, and nothing more was to be done. There was no obligation upon the contractors to remove the building within a certain time, and if the Government removed it they would have a great architectural question to deal with, besides a great money ques- tion, while serious inconveniences would result from the unavoidable delay. He then stated the means taken to ascertain the value of the building, and the data upon which the Government had made the offer of £ 80,000 to the contractors. The next question was the position of the Govern- ment with reference to the objects to be provided for. They had, he said, to provide for three urgent public wants— the National Portrait Gallery, the Patent Museum, and the Natural History Collections of the British Museum— which they had ne means of meeting except by appropriating some portion of the site at Ken- sington. Mr Gladstone explained, by reference to a coloured plan, the arrangements proposed for each of the before- men- tioned purposes, and then stated the financial results. The cost of the land, and buildings on a portion of the land, would be £ 120,000; there would have to be paid to the contractors £ 80,000, and the cost of adapting the buildings would be £ 90,000, making a total of £ 290,000. For this would be obtained 4j or 5 acres of land covered with buildings and 12J acres of site; or, in another view, land and buildings worth £ 360,000.— Lord ELCHO, in a speech of considerable length, denounced the whole scheme of the Government on the grounds of taste and economy, disputing the accuracy of the details given by the Chan- cellor of the Exchequer, expressing his wonder at the attempt to force this vote down their throat, and stigma- tising the building as a disgrace to the country, condemned by public opinion throughout the civilised world. He moved the rejection of the vote.— After a few remarks from Mr TITE, Mr BENTINCK characterised the scheme as one of the most wasteful, extravagant, and unjustifiable proposals ever made to the House of Commons, and that would open the way to unlimited expen- diture.— Sir J. SHELLEY thought it would be better to pull down the building, and, having the ground clear, to see what was prac- tically wanted, and provide for it, than to attempt to patch up a building that could not be made perfect. He must vote, he said, against the proposal of the Government.— Mr COWPER gave fur- ther explanations of the Government proposal, and urged upon the committee that, on the scoreof economy, they would do wisely to accept the vote, and not be led away by suggestions that were not of a practical character, but had reference to fancied schemes. — The vote was strongly opposed by Mr C. BENTINCK and Mr DOULTON. Lord H. LENNOX, after assigning reasons why, he thought, the friends of science and art should hesitate before they followed the leadership of Lord Elcho, said he should vote for the proposal of the Government, considering that so favourable an opportunity for effecting at economical arrangement for the objects in view should not be lost.— Mr GREGORY, in opposing the vote, accused the Government of either negligence or disingenuousness with reference to the vote for the purchase of the land. He argued that there was no necessity to send the Patent Museum to Kensington; that the Portrait Gallery was always considered to be connected with the National Gallery ; and that it was good policy, as well as economy, to build only as required. He believed the proposal to bean extravagant one that would lead to endless expense.— A good deal more discussion ensued, and ultimately the house di- vided, when the motion of the Government was defeated by 287 to 121, majority 166. Some routine business followed, and the house then adjourned. FRIDAY-— At the morning sitting the house was occupied in the discussion of the Fisheries ( Ireland) Bill in committee. At the evening sitting the SOLICITOR- GENERAL, in reply to Mr Carnagie, said that munitions of war consigned from this coun- try to neutral ports bona fide did not violate the international law, and no prize court would condemn a vessel so frsighted. COTTON SUPPLY.— The remainder of the eveuing was occu- pied in discussing the question of the supply of cotton from India LATEST INTELLIGENCE. BELL'S LIFE OFFICE, Saturday Night, 12 o'Clock. CRYSTAL PALACE,— Return of admissions for six days ending Saturday, July 4 ( including season ticket holders), 44.598. THE GREAT INTERNATIONAL AGRICULTURAL EXHIBITION AT HAMBURG.— There is every prospect of this meeting being most successful. The races will take place on the 11th, 12th, and 13th of this month ( July), and the Agricultural Exhibition will take place on the 14th, and last the six following days. The entries are particularly good, and in some of the horse classes very nume- rous, and the stock of every sort is likely to meet with a ready sale. There will also be a large dog show at the same time, and thus a week full of interest and amusement may be anticipated. The Royal Agricultural Society of England and the German Agri- cultural Society give their hearty co- operation, while various foreign Governments liberally support the meeting. Altogether, it is expected to be memorable for its international importance. THE FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE BRIGHTON RAILWAY.— The inquest on the bodies of the unfortunate persons killed on the Brighton Railway on the 29th of May was brought to a conclu- sion at Streatham on Wednesday, when the jury returned the following verdict:—" That the deceased persons severally came by their deaths from accident, and we, the jury, are of opinion that it was attributable to the high rate of speed at which the ex- press trains run over the line from Croydon to Victoria. The jury would urge on the directors of the London and Brighton Com- pany the necessity of allowing more time for the performance of the journey, and that careful attention should be given to the coupling of the trains." LATEST FROM AMERICA. REUTER'S TELEGRAMS. NEW YORK, JUNE 2- 3 ( EVENING). The Confederates have reoccupied Chambersburg, and appre- hensions of their advancing on Harrisburg are renewed. In consequence of the slaughter of negro troops at Milliken's Bend, General Grant has threatened to retaliate if coloured troops are executed when captured. General Johnston is fortifying the east bank of Big Black River. The Confederates estimate their loss during General Grant'* different attacks on Vicksburg at 6,000 men, and the Federal losses at 40,000. They think that Grant's present force, with the reinforcements which he has received, does not exceed 60,000 men. No fears are expressed of a want of provisions at Vicksburg. Advices from New Orleans to the 14th represent the siege at Port Hudson to be progressing favourably. Southern journals assert that the Federal steamer Essex had been captured at Port Hudson, and several gunboats disabled, and that a battle occurred at Port Hudson on the 12th, during which the Confederates left their entrenchments, drove General Banks from his fortifications, and spiked his guns. Sixteen Mobile adventurers have captured the Federal steamer Boston at the mouth of the Mississippi, afterwards burning two barks, and taking the steamer into Mobile. A Confederate cavalry force, numbering 900, has invaded In- diana, in order to burn the bridges of the Ohio and Mississippi railroad. The Federal General Carter's cavalry is making a raid in East Tennessee. The Confederates are reported to be moving on the whole Fede- ral line from Memphis to Corinth, and cutting the railroads and telegraph wires. The Federal expedition from Port Royal has entirely destroyed the town of Darien, Georgia. Nothing was known at Newbern of the forces reported to have concentrated in North Carolina for resistance to the Confederate Government. The Confederate iron- clad Chattahoocha has been destroyed by an explosion while making a raid on the Federal fleet at Apalachicola. The British brig Isabella Thompson has been captured. The Peterhoft trial has been postponed. ( By Telegraph to Halifax.) NEW YORK, JUNE 24 ( MORNING). General Ewell is reported to be in Boonesboro' Valley, Mary- land, with from 30,000 to 40,000 men. He crossed at Antietam Ford and Shepherdstown. The Federals have reoccupied Frede- rick. General Hooker was in Washington yesterday, where a council of war was held. Mr Vallandigham ran the blockade at Wilmington in a vessel bound to Nassau. One thousand citizens are said to be encamped at Bloomington, Indiana, with pickets extending eight miles around, for the pur- pose of resisting the draft. An enrolling officer has been shot dead in Pennsylvania while arresting deserters. Two men have been shot dead in Maine while arresting two deserters, who afterwards committed suicide. General Schenk has forbidden the Baltimore papers to publish extracts from the New York World and Express. The privateer Tacony burned six schooners and three ships off Nantucket on Monday last. The steamer Ruby has been driven ashore off Charleston. It is reported that Captain Semmes has transferred his com- mand from the Alabama to the steamer Georgia. NEW YORK, JUNE 25 ( EVENING). The panic and apprehension caused by the Confederate invasion continue throughout Pennsylvania and Maryland. The citizens from the border are hurrying to Harrisburg, and thousands of men are working on entrenchments in Baltimore and Pittsburg. General Halleck has visited Baltimore and inspected the de- fences. This morning the Confederates were within sixteen miles of Harrisburg, and were reported to have ten regiments with artil- lery, and cavalry, in South Mountain, beyond Gettysburg. Lee's object in threatening various points in Pennsylvania is still supposed to be to draw Hooker's army from Washington. Generals Lee and Longstreet, with 100,000 men, were reported to have been at Winchester on Friday last, and it is supposed that Lee's whole army has crossed since Friday into Maryland at Antietam, Shepherdstown, and Williamsport. On Sunday large Confederate trains were moving north through Hagerstown, Martinsburg, and Boonesboro'. Rhode's Confederate division, 12,000 strong, with thirteen pieces of artillery, crossed at Shepherdstown on Sunday. Half of them moved northward on Tuesday, and the other half went to Williamsport. The Baltimore American says that General Ewell is advancing in the direction of Frederick. General Hooker's army occupies the whole Virginian shore of the Potomac, up to Harper's Ferry, and it is supposed that Gene- ral Hooper will cross the Potomac at the same fords where Lee entered Maryland last year, and place himself between Lee and Washington and Baltimore. The garrison at Maryland Heights now forms the right wing of Hooker's army. Ewell's advance towards Frederick is supposed to be to prevent the junction of Hooker with^ Harper's Ferry, but this junction is said. to have been accomplished. The New York Herald thinks that General Lee's forces will cut the different railroad lines, and isolate Maryland and Washington from communication with the north and west; and that Lee with his main army will occupy some central point between Baltimore and Washington, and compel Hooker to come out and fight under pain of being isolated from the east, north, and west. 20,000 of General Bragg's troops are reported to have reinforced Richmond. The Governor of New Jersey has recalled the troops of that State from Pennsylvania. A dispute between himself and the Governor of Pennsylvania, and the fact that the New Jersey troops were abused as Copperheads, caused him to take this step. General Milroy is reported to be superseded. The Federals were to commence firing hot shot into Vicksburg on the 20th. Southern journals report that a heavy engagement was progres- sing on the 21st between the Confederate cavalry and the Fede- rals at Big Black Bridge. General Banks officially reports on the I4th that he had esta- blished batteries within 350 yards of Port Hudson. After a vigor- ous cannonade he summoned the garrison to surrender. The Confederates having refused, an assault was made, and General Banks gained and held a position within 50 to 100 yards of the enemy's works. General Banks is confident of success. The reported capture of the steamer Essex is denied. Advices from Havannali state that it was rumoured there that an engagement occurred on the 3d between the Alabama and the Vanderbilt, off Santa Cruz. The privateer Tacony continues her depredations off Nantucket. Since the 12th she has burned seventeen vessels, among which were the ship Byzantium, bound from London for New York, and the baik Goodspeed, from Londonderry for New York. LATEST.— Despatches just received from Baltimore assert that General Lee's programme is to march rapidly to Harrisburg, and on to Philadelphia. There are street rumours that Lee, after grossing the Potomac, re- crossed it at a point below, so as to bring a portion of his forces between Hooker and Washington.

To- day, an inquest was held at the Victoria Tavern, Stoke Newington, as to the finding of certain bodies on the premises of Mr Henry Chapman, undertaker to the parish of Hackney. The inquest was nominally upon the body of one female child. The bodies presented a revolting appearance.— Martha Metcalf de- posed that she was confined on the Tth of June. The child died half an hour after its birth, and she gave it to Mr. Chapman to be buried, and paid him a fee of 7s.— Mr Valentine described the find- ing of the various bodies and coffins. Two of the bodies had been acted on by lime. There were two adult coffins, one of which was marked with the letters H. M., for Hackney Union. There were a number of other coffins on the premises, and there was a noxious smell from dead bodies. Two of them were no longer offensive. The coffins in which the deceased bodies were found were under a bench in an adjoining shed.— Dr Tripe, medical officer of health, found on Chapman's premises a female child, apparently dead about three weeks, and two other bodies, which were very dry from the action of lime. One might have been dead almost a year, and the other about three or four months.— Verdict—" That the deceased was found dead on the premises of John Henry Chapman ; that the body had been taken to him for interment; that he had received money for the purpose of interment, and that he had neglected to do so." AN OFFICER ASSAULTING HIS WIFE. To- day, at Worship- street, Brabazan Hallowes, 37, a very re. spectable- looking person, of military appderance, was charged before Mr Cooke with violently assaulting Sarah, his wife.— The complainant, whose right eye was frightfully bruised, gave her evidence manifestly in great distress of mind. She said : Last night my husband returned home with me, being then, as usual the worse for liquor. I begged that he would go to bed, but had scarcely uttered the words when he struck me a heavy blow in the face with his fist, injuring my eye as it now appears. I fell to the floor, and when I was able opened the window and called for assistance. I don't know how many times he struck ine. My right ear is also cut. I know that he struck me once as I lay on the greund. It is a common practice with him to beat me. We have been married four years, and during that time have occupied twenty different lodgings in consequence of his violent character. He says that he will not live with me, but allow me so much a week.— A police constable, who entered the house upon hearing screams of murder, said the defendant was like a madman. He was with- out a coat, and his shirt sleeves turned up ; he was drunk and talking incoherently. His wife was sober, crying bitterly, and bleeding from the eye.— Defendant: She first picked a quarrel with me as we returned from seeing the Fairlop boats, and when at home renewed it. I did not touch her. She was in liquor Pi ^ fell against the latch of the door.— Mr Cooke : Your conduct^-- greatly aggravated, if such is possible, by your being, as I per- ceive, marked on the police sheet a lieutenant in the 18th Royal Irish, a position that might well be supposed to have taught you better than thus to treat a woman, and that woman your wife. I order you to find two sureties in £ 50 each to keep the peace to- wards her and others for the term of four calendar months. CHOPPING A DOG'S BACK- To- day, at Southwark, John Ball, a butcher, in the employ of Mr'. Hillier, No. 1, Dockhead, Bermondsey, was charged with cruelly and maliciously cutting a dog across the back with a butcher's cleaver.— Henry Wingfield, an errand boy, said that he was passing Mr Hillier's shop when he saw the prisoner at the doorway chopping a sheep. He had a very large and sharp cleaver in his right hand, and by some accident the dog ran against him. He deliberately turned half- way round and wil- fully chopped the dog across the back with the cleaver. The poor dog ran into the road and fell down writhing in agony. A con- stable came up at the time and took the prisoner into custody.— The dog was brought into court at this juncture, being carefully wrapped up in a basket.— There was a large wound across the loins.— John Carpenter, a general dealer at Dockhead, said the dog was his, and it was a useful and faithful animal, with not the least bit of vice about him.— Mr Combe had no doubt the act was done wilfully. It was a very hard case, and he should sen- tence the prisoner to the House of Correction, with hard labour, for one month.
