The drawing of these sketches is most spirited, and the evident know- ledge of his subject which has guided ; he pencil of Mr II. K. Browne makes them verv valuable additions to this class of publication. Need we say that Mr Fores has done all in the way of bringing them out twat can make them available for the drawing- room table."— Sporting Magazine. " There is something so real and unaffected about Phiz's humour, and it is put before us in such a thoroughly workmanlike, artistic manner, that the most Boeotian head can hardly miss the point of it. His horses and hounds are alive, aud some of them kicking; his roadside and cover- side ' bits' wear quite a familiar air. Throughout the whole of this series Mr Pippins is admirable ; but Mr Pippins's horse is positively inimitable." — The Sporting Gazette. Published by Messrs Fores, 41, Piccadilly, London.

CHARLES OAKLEY'S information on the above important races is of a very first- rate character, and ought to be acted upon by all without a moment's delay. With respect to GLORIOUS GOODWOOD, C. Oakley begs to state there is not the slightest change in his opinion ; his horses for the Goodwood Stakes and Cup are doing capital work, and fit to run for a kingdom. All connected with the animals deem winning a certainty, fearing nothing in the race. The Good wood Stakes C. Oakley considers especially good for investment, and does not hesi- tateto assert he never felt more confident of winning, and st. ronglv urges all who want to realize a capital stake to get on his choice a't once. Remember C. Oakley won both these races last year, and never lost the Goodwood Slakes, having named the winner of this important and exciting race for the last eight years in succession. The following were C. Oakley's bona fide selections. THE GOODWOOD STAKES. Quince 18.55 won Pretty Boy 1856 won Leamington 1857 won The Roman Candle 1858 won Starke 1859 won Wallace 1860 won Elcho 1861 won and last not least his truly brilliant selection Boabdil ( sent at 50 to 1) 1862 won For the many other glorious " hits" he has made, he begs to refer to Bell's Life. In this paper are recorded his triumphant victories. His success as a Turf adviser has been indeed truly astonishing; the im- mense patronage he is honoured with alone is a proof of the valuable character of Ills 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.

So far as intelligence has yet reached us there is reason to believe that the very first operations of General Meade in the command of the Northern forces have justified his appointment- When Hooker was removed, those forces were scattered along a line of country to the south- east, east, and north- east of Washing- ton, while Lee had brought most of his forces together, in order to effect an invasion of Pennsylvania. To attain this object Lee was obliged to move about the same distance to the west of Wash- ington, as the extended line of the Northerns lay to the east of it. When Lee's movements were first disclosed there appeared to be no preparations for resisting him, and his swoop upon Washington from the north west was by some people talked of as an inevitable result. These people had already suggested New York as the place to which ttie Federal Government was to retire. And in all probability, had Hooker remained in command, this result would have happened; all the more probably too because, after the battle of Chancellorsville, the Federal army was said to be very much disorganised, and to be reduced to very small numbers, by the expiration of the period during which the " two years' men" were engaged to serve. The cause of the North seemed almost hopeless. It must be taken as a sign that General Meade enjoys the confidence of the soldiers, when we find that this army, represented as almost melted away, still exists, and that its widely- scattered bands have been brought together in sufficient force to present themselves as a match for General Lee's army, which was represented as being confident, exulting in past success, and at least 150,0 0 strong. Bo rapid had been the concentration of the Northerns that they arrived at Gettysburg before their opponents, and actually passed through the town, and on the west of it- began the conflict with the soldiers of Lee, then hurrying forward to seize it. Against equal numbers the most advanced columns of the Northerns appear to have been successful, but thoroughly overpowered by the arrival of Swell's division of 25,000 men they had to retreat a little to the south of Gettysburg. There they held their ground, and prepared for the battle of the next day. This has been fought, and appa- rently with no decisive result. The Northern account has been received, but not the Southern one. Yet, not to say anything of earnest partisans of the South residing in New York, the news- papers there are all vehement for early intelligence : and as the head quarters of General Lee must be at Chambersburg, whence ( as appears by the map) there is a line of rail way communicating with New York, there is little reason why both sides should not have sent their statements at once. General Meade seems to have massed his troops with consider- able skill as well as celerity, and the results which he declares ( three thousand prisoners being in his hands) leave it little doubt- ful that though there has been no decisive victory for him, he has severely checked the Confederates. This seems to be so now, but even while we write intelligence may be brought giving a different colour to the affair, and showing that however great his vigilance and activity, and however gallant his troops, he has not had the means to do more than show that he, at an earlier period, held a different rank from that of a subordinate to Hooker, his Government might have been gratified by a different result. ROEBUCK V LOUIS NAPOLEON. This great cause is over. It has not been compromised; at least, so far as the public are aware, there has not been any arrangement between the parties for their mutual advantage and their common safety. But the tales of contradiction that might have startled the quiet, excited the curious, stimulated the inquisitive, and gratified the lovers of scandal, are all hushed. It is plain that Mr Roebuck was misled— whether by his own over- assumptive fancies, or by the calculated adroitness of the Sovereign he was talking to, it yet remains for time to discover. There is much to be said in favour of the former, but we confess to a preference for the latter hypothesis. If the propositions of the two intermeddling gentlemen could have bound and fettered the English Govern- ment so as to compel it to do what the Emperor wished, there would have been a plainer, less mystifying, explanation than has now come from the Tuileries. The members for Sheffield and Sunderland proved to be two nobodies for the purpose in which they thought fit to engage themselves, and so the Emperor's answers to them have taken the shape of those answers whick clever men give to the troublesome and disturbing inquiries of young children ; they are evasive to every point to which the in- quiry has been addressed. These two inquisitive children have not been told " you are naughty children, and must, not ask such questions," for that would, as it always does, have stimulated far- ther questionings that might have been embarrassing, but the " two little dears" have been adroith misled. Mr Roebuck has got out of his difficulty with boldness, and therefore with a certain amount of success. He had no right to do what he did ; he was quite wrong in seeking an interview with the Emperor at all; his representations of that interview have been treated as curiously erroneous; and he has been both cen- sured and quizzed for seeking it and for pretending to report it. Lord Palmerston censured the affair as worse than inopportune for the purposes of public business, and Mr Roebuck has wisely submitted to this censure, taking for himself, at the same time, the air of a man who, if he had pleased to tell all he knew, could have freed himself from that censure. In this way, without directly impugning Louis Napoleon's veracity, he has intimated his power to sustain the reputation of his own. So far as he is con- cerned the Emperor has no reason to claim a triumph. Mr Roe- buck did what was wrong according to the law of this country, what was quite out of the way according to its practice, and what was inopportune and inconvenient according to governmental exigencies. On the last ground he has prudently confessed him- self in error, and withdrawn from the business. He has gained no triumph, but he can hardly be said to have suffered any loss. The same thing cannot be said of Mr Lindsay. That hon mem- ber has, by his own confessions, been the victim of his own vanity. He did not wish to see the Emperor, not he, but the hon and learned member for Sheffield did; and so Mr Lindsay gave way to him. This is absolutely the only reason that Mr Lindsay gives for going to Paris at all; and every one can see that, in going, he yielded to his own inclinations, sheltering himself under the wish of the member for Sheffield as the excuse for gratifying them. His descriptions of the interview are, quite unconsciously to him, absolutely comic. What, he did say, and what he might have said, and what he will tell of what the Emperor said, and what, he does not intend to tell, because it would not be respectful to the Emperor, and what he could say, but he won't, and what the public ought to know, but they shan't, and what he thinks, but will not utter, are matters mixed in such inextricable and funny confusion in his speech as, by their absurdity, almost to repay any one for the trouble of reading it. In all other respects the reading of it is an unmitigated bore. There is not one idea in the whole column of its length, but there are the marks and signs of obtrusiveness without firmness; of self- importance without any one quality to sustain and justify it; of the vain desire to appear to be on familiar terms with an Emperor, with the weakest fear of saying anything that might offend him. Either the interview was to be talked of or it was not. If not, then Mr Lindsay should have been entirely silent; but if it was, it was to be truthfully related ; and no squeamishness as to offending one of the inter- locutors, merely because he was an Emperor, ought to have pre- vented the full statement of the truth. If Mr Lindsay has any regard for his own character, he will never place himself in such a position again. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. FRANCE. An imperial decree has been published concerning the measures to be taken before any educational professor, of superior or se- condary rank, can be dismissed his functions by the Minister. The decree is preceded by a statement of motives, in which the necessity is peinted out for the members of the body of teachers to have every guarantee that justice will be done them. La France states that the King of Denmark has requested the three protecting powers of Greece to occupy the Piiseus and Athens. " The young King," continues La France, " will, it is said, defer'" his departure far Greece for some time." The Patrie publish^ an article, declaring that the notes of the three powers to Ru are no longer suited to the actual state of affairs. P# laud does W.' t wish for reconciliation with Russia, but desires independence. There can be no doubt that Russia will consent to negotiate upon the basis of the six points, as the negotiation will permit of her pursuing the work of destroying Poland. The Government has demanded explanations from Turin respecting some brigands cap- tured on board a French vessel in the Port of Genoa. ITALY. On the solicitation of the French Government, Generals Bosco, Luvera, Lusmet, and Pesacane, known for their activity in for- warding brigandage, have been excelled from Rome. Five Neapolitan brigand chiefs, among whom are Cipriano and La- zala, notorious tor numerous atrocities, were captured on board a French vessel in the port of Genoa by the Italian authorities. The capture is said to have been made with the consent of the French consul. Cipriano and Lazala were condemned to twenty years at the galleys in 1859, during the Bourbon reign, for thefts committed in 1851. Theircapture. it now appears, has offended the French Government, and is made the subject of remonstrance. Yet if the capture was with the assent of the French Consul there can be no ground of complaint against the Italian Government. That Goveiinnent has just adopted a measure iu the Neapolitan provinces which is a homage to the principles of liberty of con- science. According to the Neapolitan code Roman Catholics alone can contract marriage in the Two Sicilies. A recent Minis- terial circular orders the civil functionaries to accept matrimonial notices from all persons, to whatever creed they may belong. POLAND. A domiciliary visit has been made at the house of Prince Sapielia. Prince Leopold Sapielia was arrested. The severity of the measures taken by the Russians in Galicia is increasing. Great atrocities were committed by the Russians atJanow. The whole town, with the exception of three houses, was burned down. A protest against the arrest of Archbishop Felinski was read in all the churches of Warsaw. Monsignor Rzewaslti, the archbishop's representative, has voluntarily resigned his office. Orders have been issued that all the churches throughout the kingdom are to be draped with black, and that no bells are to be rung. The following decree of the National Government has been pub- lished :—" The Russian Government issued an order to their civil governors on the OtU of May last, according to which the burgo- masters and wujta of communes are made subordinate to the usurping chiefs ot war circles, for the purpose of forming civic and rural guards of the inhabitants of towns and villages to serve against the National army."— The National Government, taking into consideration the situation of affairs, has, therefore, decreed as follows :—" 1. The burgomasters and village wojts are ordered to form bodies of guards, for the purpose of aiding the insurrec- tionary army and for carrying out the orders of the National Government on the spot.— 2. Tkese guards, under the command of the burgomasters and wojts of communes, will be at the imme- diate disposition of the National local civil and military autho- rities. This is turning the Russian scheme against its originators. General Mouravieff issued a decree ordering that all moneys taken by the insurgents from the state or communal treasuries shall be refunded within ten days by the Polish laud proprietors in each district. In other words that they shall pay over again. Forced sales will take place on the estates of those who refuse to comply with this order. The Morning Post states, on what it declares to be good authority, the following facts:—" Mouravieff by his last order has commanded all the prostitutes of the country to wear mourning, in order that they should not be distinguished from the honest women. He then has the latter taken up for plying their vocation without a license, and, after punishment, they are registered and compelled to receive licenses as women of the town. Many ladies of distinction are imprisoned, but it is not known to what treatment they are subjected. No less than seventy landed proprietors of Livonia are now under sentence of death of Duna- burg, none of whom was taken in arms or shared openly in the insurrection. About three fourths of the landowners in Livonia, Witepsk, and Mohilew are in prison, and trains of exiles leave the country daily to be imprisoned in distant parts of the empire, or to suffer for the misfortune of being born Polish gentlemen by a life of toil in Siberia, while their lands are being divided among Russians. The scheme of extermination and sequestration is being relentlessly carried out." GREECE. The recent disturbances in Athens were of a serious character. Political rivalries appear to have been at the bottom of them, though the immediate cause of conflict was the mutinous conduct of an entire battalion of soldiers, who refused to obey the orders of the Minister of War. Other soldiers were sent to enforce obe- dience, and a desperate struggle was the result, which extended over two days and nights, and during which one hundred of the combatants are said to have been killed or wounded. Bloodshed was at last put a stop to by the determined conduct of the French, English, and Russian representatives. During the conflict artil- lery was used on both sides, and the safety of the bank endan- gered. Two of the ministers were at one time made prisoners, and detained as hostages for the commander ( if the battalion already mentioned, who had previously been made prisoner by order of the Minister of War. All the troops have now been sent away from Athens, and the protection of the city is entrusted to the National Guard. AMERICA. General Hooker has, " at his own request,'' been relieved from the command of the Federal army, which has been given to Gen Meade, a regular bred soldier, educated at the West Point Col- lege. The intelligence of last week left General Lee far on his northern progress towards Pennsylvania, without there being any appearance of his being likely to encounter interruption. The flight of crowds from Washington aNd Philadelphia was talked of, and no one knew where to look for resistance to the Southern arms. General Meade's appointment was notified at the very end of last week, and the next news heard is that he has fought a great battle, and, at all events, given a check to the Confederate advance. The details of the manner in which he got his scattered troops together have not yet been received. Taking Washington as the very centre of an egg, Lee's troops have been advancing round its western boundary line, and Meade's have been brought together along its eastern boundary line, and have met in combat at nearly a central position in the north of both lines. The telegrams enable us to follow General Meade's movements, and to understand the general plan of the action he has fought. The last telegrams, which came up to July 1, left General Lee concentra- ting his army on the Cumberland Valley Railroad, between Ship- pensburg and Chambersburg, in anticipation of an attack from Meade's army. Chambersburg is about twenty miles from Gettysburg; and at the same date the Federal army was reported to be in rapid motion towards the point at which Lee was massing his forces in the Cumberland Valley. The first corps of Meade's army, under Reynolds, entered Gettys- burg early on the morning of J uly 1, and passing through it on the east side met General Hill's corps advancing in order of battle from the Chambersburg Turnpike. An engagement ensued in which the Federal Reynolds maintained his ground for two hours alone, being then reinforced by a Federal corps under Ge- neral Howard. They were then winning, but at that time Ge- neral E well came up on the other side with 25,000 men, and the Federals being enormously outnumbered, fell back to a position south of Gettysburg. Here they were joined by the main body of the Federal army, and General Meade took up his posi- tion on a rising ground, and made his dispositions for attack of the following day. The action on July 2 did not commence till the afternoon, and was then bivught on by a forward move ment of General Sickles, who commanded on the Federal left. After a sharp cannonade, the Confederates assaulted the left with such determination, that the 3d corps was at first driven back, but being rallied by General Sickles, and re- organised, not only repulsed the attrck, but pushed forward up to the batteries on the Confederate right. A second and still more furious assault, under Longstreet, which at first forced the Federal line over the crest of the hill, in the end met with the same fate, and night closed in without any impression having been made on the Fe- deral position. Though resumed early next morning, the en gagement does not appear to have become very severe till towards mid- day. General Meade reports that at one o'clock the enemy opened a severe fire on the right with 150 guns, which continued for three hours. Two furious assaults were subsequently made, but, as on the previous day, were well repulsed— 3,000 prisoners being left in the hands of the Federals. MEXICO. The New York Express says :—" President Juarez and his Cabinet had concluded to evacuate the city of Mexico, believing that the most effectual resistance to the French army could be made elsewhere. On the 31st May the Government moved to San Luis de Potosi, taking all the movable fire- arms and ammunition along. They also took with them two millions of dollars from the Treasury. The force that garrisoned the city of Mexico, said to number over 20,000 men, was withdrawn to the Cuernevoca Plaza, and to intermediate points around the city for the purpose of carrying on guerilla warfare. On the 1st June a meeting was held in the city at which the principal leaders of the Church party were present. They sent a commission to General Forey to offer their allegiance to the Emperor. The French division under General Bazaine occupied the main entrance to the city, and afforded the Church party protection against the excited populace. General Forey had issued a decree confiscating the property of all parties who have been or are in arms against the French, and has established three papers to advocate the cause of the French Go- vernment. So all news coming from Mexico must now be read with the light which this fact throws upon it. One of these news- papers has already published an article declaring that it is necessary to extirpate Democracy in Mexico, and that even a dream of a popular sovereignty must not be tolerated ! Pretty well for a beginning. NEW ZEALAND. From latest accounts, there is every reason to fear that th6 Government of New Zealand is engaged in another Maori v, The very letter which krings the intelligence of this fresh oiit » break mentions the settlement of the old Waitara dispute, by an award favourable to the native claims. No wonder, then, that the British public should have been startled by the short tele- graphic message which announced the renewal of hostilities. So far as we yet know, the Maories have this time been the aggressors. The casus belli is a block of land, but it is important to bear in mind that no complicated questions of tenure and tribal rights are involved in the present case. The district with which we are now concerned is called Tataraimaku, and belongs legally to Europeans, though it has remained in the possession of the natives ever since the last war. To recognise conquest as a valid title to lands which had been deserted by their owners, and ravaged by the Maories while in a state of insurrection against the Queen, would have been inexcusable on the part of Sir G. Grey, and it was his clear duty to reoccupy Tataraimaku, and it is the per- formance of this duty which it is feared may lead to another war. Great confidence, however, is placed in the tact of Sir George Grey, who has the confidence of all classes of colonists, and it is hoped that he may be able to carry matters through without any very dangerous outbreak. THE ISLINGTON CHILD MUEBER.— The inquest on the body of Elizabeth Hunter, a child found buried in a nursery ground at Islington, was resumed on Wednesday, before Dr Lankester. There was no fresh evidence to criminate the man Clarke, who is in custody on suspicion of having murdered the deceased, and the inquiry was again adjourned. HEALTH or LONDON.— The deaths in the week ending July 11 were 1,287, being 117 above the average. Scarlatina is now the most prevailing epidemic, the deaths therefrom being 113. From small- pox there were 55 deaths, and 91 from diarrhoea. The births were 989 boys and 994 girls— total, 1,983. BELL'S LIFE IN LONDON, JULY 19, 1863. THE NATIONAL RIFLE ASSOCIATION PRIZE MEETING. The second week of the competition has come to a termina- tion, and the meeting has passed off with an eclat that must have been most gratifying to the Association, the volunteers> j and the public. No one but those who had business to do | was allowed within the limits of the ranges, and there- j fore the reporters were able to get their special information ; with facility and satisfaction. Let it, however, be noted that . the whole system is getting more into form, although there is still ; room for great improvement. In the statistical department it > would be well, we venture to think, if scores were only issued of : contests completed except in cases where the entries have closed j at or before the time of shooting, as a knowledge of a " tall score'' | very frequently keeps men back who would try their chance, and so the Association loses by the publication Many instances have been irivenof this, and it wilt doubtless come under the notice of the council. The complete success of the meeting has been brought about by the aid of a most brilliant fortnight of real summer wea- ther : but to the untiring exertions of Capt St John, 8. Flood Page, Adjutant of the London Scottish, and Capt Mildmay, the Secretary of the Association, must praise be given. Ever courteous to all, and anxious to smooth any difficulty, they have been supported by the good feeling and countenance of Lord Elcho, Lord Bury, Earl Ducie, Col the Hon C. H. Lindsay, Col Clarke Kennedy, and other members, and the result has been a most complete success. The system of disc marking having been fairly tested, has met the unqualified approval of all those whose opinion is worth anything, and properly carried out it will lead to a still further advance towards that perfection in rifle shooting which it is the desire of all to attain. Our full and special report will properly indicate the advance that has been made, both with the Enfield and the small bore, the effect of the scientific appliances for sighting to the latter weapon leading to the sup- position that next year a still further improvement will be seen. The valuable and liberal service rendered by Mr Steward of the Btrand, the optician to the Association, in furnishing telescopes at each firing point, deserves commendation, while his collection the Exhibition tent was much admired and deservedly patro- nised. Messrs Mapping, Elkington, Mappin Brothers, Angell, \ - jjUnt and Koskell, & c, exhibited some beautiful specimens of plate, while Mr Blanch of Liverpool, Mr Henry, and others, had their special tents for shooting implements of all kinds. In our Town Edition of last week we gave the result of the shooting for the first stage of the Queen's prize, by which the winner took the silver medal of the Association. Two of the competitors having made 49 points, shot off the tie, one shot each, at 600 yards, and, after each had made an outer, the result was as follows:— Private Wisker, 2d Essex 2 2 Serg Millard, St George's 2 0 Private Wisker thus became the winner of the Silver Medal, and the others shot for the second stage on Wednesday, as hereunder recorded. .

This prize, value £ 250, was presented for annual competition to the volunteer battalions of Great Britain by Lieut- Col the Hon C. H. Lindsay, on behalf of the members of the St George's Rilles. To be competed for with any description of rifle of bond fide Go- vernment pattern, used in the volunteer battalions; 5 shots ( Hythe position) at 200 and 500 yards. First prize, the Challenge Vase, to be held by the battalion of which the winner is a member, and for the winner himself a gold and enamelled jewel of St George.— Second prize, a Silver and Enamelled Jewel of St George. — Third prize, a Bronze Cross of St George.— Fourth prize, a large handsomely framed Photograph of the Challenge Vase and Jewel.— Fifth prize, a large Phot- . graph of the Vase and Jewel to the battalion which proves itself successful. It may be mentioned that last year 100 regiments sent representatives from 1,6- 35 com- petitors, and in the present year 129 regiments were represented from 1,775 competitors. The shooting on Saturday, the 11th, was ably carried on under the direction of that popular officer and accomplished and courteous gentleman, Lieut- Col C. H. Lindsay, and resulted as follows :— 200 yds. 500 yds. Total Private Jopling, South Middlesex 14 18 32 Four ties were made for the other prizes as follows:— Priv R. W.

THE PRINCE OF WALES'S PRIZE. This prize, for the winner of the silver and bronze medals, given the previous year to the Colonic and County Rifle Associations, in connection with the National Rifle Association, seven shots, at 200, 500, and 600 yards, was won on Saturday week by Private A. Rumball, 3d Herts, who made in the aggregate 58 points. OXFORD AND CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITIES. This contest was between eight members on each side, seven shots at each range of 200, 500, and 600 yards, Long Enfield rifle, Hythe position. This competition was established last year, al- though in 1861 two from each university shot a kind of private match during the Wimbledon meeting, when Cambridge won. Last year it was accepted as part of the regular proceedings, and the " light blue" made 373 against 309, thus winning by 64 points. In the competition on Monday, July 15, it will be seen that both sides have much improved— Cambridge scoring 402, Oxford 329, thus leaving the Cantabs winners by 73 points. The score, as spe- cially given by us, will illustrate the individual shooting. CAMBRIDGE. 200 yards. Total. Capt E. Ross 3334333 22 Corp J. A.

The popular feeling having made the volunteer movement an institution, though it was from the first well supported by a limited section of the " upper ten thousand" last year, both houses of the legislature shed the light of their countenance on rifle shooting by a contest between the " Lords and Commons," when the upper house won by 62 points, scoring 411 points to the Commons 349. On Monday they again competed, when the tables were effectually turned, the Commons marking 460 to the Lords 42- 3, giving a majority to the " people" of 37 points. Con- ditions 11 on each side, 7 shots at each range of 200 and 500 yards, any rifle under 101b weight, any position. Our space precludes any detail of the shooting, but we may just say that the Marquis of Abercorn used a Lancaster, the Duke of Marlborough an Alfred Lancaster, the Earl of Dunmore a Henry, and the re- maining noble lords Whitworths. Out of the Commons eleven Mr Dillwyn used an Aston rifle, Mr Humberston a Turner, Mr Erskine Wemyss a Crockart, and all the remainder Whitworths. As regards position, sitting and lying prone on the face seemed to be in nearly equal favour. In the Lords' eleven, five used the former and five the latter— the odd man— in this case represented by Earl Granard— employing the easily- assumed Hythe kneeling position. In the Commons team, seven gave the preference to the lying position, one— Mr Forster— who were his uniform as a volunteer— to the Hythe kneeling position, and the remaining three to the deer- stalking or sitting position.

THE QUEEN'S PRIZE—( SECOND STAGE). This prize, alike in loyalty and intrinsic value the prize of the meeting, was shot for on Tuesday, July 14, it being " A Cup, value JK250, or £ 250 in money, at the option of the winner ; to- gether with the Gold Medal ot the Association ; to be shot for with Whitworth rifles supplied by the Association, and the com- petition confined to the winners ot the 30 rifles, and to the 30 next best shots in the first stage of this competition ; each competitor to tire seven stiots at each range ot 800, 900, and 1,000 yards." The shooting was more than splendid, not only aslar as the win- ner was concerned, but also as to no less than 29 other compe- titors, who headed the score made last year by Serg Pixley, of the Victorias, who won this prize witli 44 marks. The winner this year, Private Roberts, of the 12tli Shropshire, made 23, 26, and 16— total 65, at the respective ranges, being as nearly as pos- sible 33 per cent plus, as against 18, 11, and 15— total 44, made by last year's winner. We may also mention that, out of 40 com petitors last year, the lowest who fired all through made only 21, lie being the 27th on the list, against 29, the total of the " wooden spoon" of this year's 60, who was the 44th on the list.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS. MONDAY— THE CHANNEL FLEE 1! IN THE BALTIC.— Lord MALMESBURY asked whether an article which appeared in The Observer on the previous day was correct. The Observer had the reputation of being patronised by the Government, and of being a reflection of their opinions and intentions. That might or might not be the fact; but the belief had the effect of attracting public attention to statements which if published in another paper would fail to obtain any credence. [ The noble earl then read the article, which was to the effect that the Government must aw ait the arrival of the Russian reply to the joint notes of the three powers, but that in the meantime the Channel fleet was ordered to cruise in the Baltic, and that its appearance there might have a good effect.] It was impossible to misunderstand the feeling evinced in this paragraph. It was one of menace to Russia, and although that might not be the intention of the noble earl, yet if our fleet were going to the Baltic it was certain that the same inference would be drawn by Europe generally, and by the Russian Government in particular, as was drawn in this article.— Earl RUSSELL: In answer to the question of the noble earl, I beg to state that there is not the smallest foundation for the paragraph which he has seen in The Observer. Whatever information The Observer may obtain, the editor must certainly have been misinformed as to the intention of the Government in this case. POLAND.— Lord Grey, in moving that an humble address be presented to Her Majesty for papers with regard to Poland, said he could not look at the present state of affairs in Poland without apprehending the most serious consequences. He admitted that a war with Russia for Polish rights was neither desired by the Government nor by the country; but he could not read the papers which had been published without an alarm that Her Majesty's Government, without intending it, might find themselves in- volved in a war. Under these circumstances Her Majesty's Go- vernment ought to act on a well- considered line of policy, which might be easily understood by the country and by Europe. What the policy was the Government intended to pursue he could not discover in the papers before them. What grounds, for example, were there for concluding that the last two communications made to the Russian Government would meet with a satisfactory result. He reviewed most searchingly the six propositions made to Russia, and regarded them as impracticable, both on account of the feelings of the Russian nation and of the Polish insurgents. Interference, if not backed by force, was not likely to bring about good, and the party interfering was regarded very much in the light of one interfering between husband and wife. It was most essential, therefore, that Her Majesty's Government should ex- plain their views, and the results which the3' expected from their policy. At the present moment our diplomatic intervention only fostered false hopes, and perpetuated the horrors of that war we were desirous to suppress. Could it be hoped, from our expe- rience of Russia, that any practical advantage would arise from these diplomatic negotiations ? He warned the Government not to arouse the feelings of this country until they passed beyond control. Sympathising with the Poles, he saw 110 reasons why we should set up as their champions. He hoped the Government would not have recourse to armed in- terference, or indeed any kind of interference.— Lord RUSSELL thanked Lord Grey for the tone and temper in which he had brought forward his motion, commented on the differ- ence of feeling which existed in regard to armed interven- tion in Poland, and expressed his opinion that it would be, in the present indeterminate nature of what really was Poland, unjust to Russia and calamitous to Europe. The gist of Lord Grey's speech was " do nothing," but several examples from recent his- tory showed that war and human passions had not only not been prevented, but often provoked by doing nothing. The policy of doing nothing was one of selfishness and separation. Her Majesty's Government had entered into negotiations with France, and consulted most earnestly with Austria, whose treatment of her Polish subjects he highly praised, and asked why Russia could not follow so good an example. He defended the proposed armistice and amnesty, and denied that such propositions were as impracticable as represented. He reviewed the various terms proposed to Russia, and observed that as we had based our proposals on the treaty of Vienna, we were bound to presume that Russia was to rule in Poland, and to propose such terms as Russia could accept. The six propositions, if agreed to by Russia, would be a charter for the Poles, and a guarantee to Europe of proper govern- ment in Poland. He denied that our diplomatic interference would be prejudicial to Poland, being of opinion that if anything was to be obtained for Poland it could only be obtained by the in- terference of the great Powers, insisting that the faith due to treaties should be observed.— Lord BROUGHAM considered that armed interference in Poland was not to be thought of.— Lord DERBY, having expressed his sympathy with the sufferings and gallantry of the Poles, lamented the discussions on the subject which often occurred in Parliament, as tending to cherish hopes in the Poles which could not be gratified. Entering on the general question, he expressed his surprise that Lord Russell had submitted the subject to discussion at the present time, but en- tirely approved his declaration that in no case would this country be dragged into a war on behalf of Poland.— After some further discussion, Lord RUSSELL said, in regard to the motion, there were as yet no papers, but as soon as the Russian answer was received he would lay it before Parliament.— Lord GREY explained that he did not mean that this country should always adopt a non- inter- ference policy, but that if we were not prepared to back our representations by force we ought not to interfere, as no useful result could ensue. He ultimately withdrew his motion. TUESDAY— AMERICA AND ENGLISH VESSELS.— Lord AIRLIK, in asking Lord Russell whether he had received an}' offi- cial report of the alleged attack made by a ship of war of the United States 011 the ship Margaret and Jessie in British waters, entered very fully into the particulars of the attack in question. He expressed a hope that Mr Seward would not only make re- paration, but would punish the officers of the ship of war guilty of tlie offence. He also asked whether a report that the blockad- ing squadron at Charleston had determined to sink ships running the blockade was true ?— Lord RUSSELL confirmed the account given by Lord Airlie of the attack on the Margaret and Jessie, and stated that an inquiry was at present going on into the case, with a view, if justified by the evidence, of demanding reparation. I11 regard to the rumour concerning the intentions of the blockad- ing squadron he had no information, but could not suppose it to be true. THE GALWAY CONTRACT.— Lord STANLEY of ALDERLEY, in reply to Lord Hard wicke, stated that the contract for conveying mails between Gal way and America had been drawn out and sent for acceptance to the Atlantic Mail Packet Company; that the terms, with two exceptions, were the same as those of the pre- vious contract; that it was obligatory upon the company to land mails at St John's, Newfoundland; that the time for commence- ment of the service depended on the company; and that the ves- sels would be required to perform the voyages within a specified time, or the company would be fined for the deficiency. THURSDAY — IRISH SALMON FISHERIES.— Lord STAN- LEY of ALDITRLEY, in moving that this bill should be read a se- cond time, siated that its object was to assimilate the law relating to salmon fisheries in Ireland as nearly as possible to that which prevailed in England and Scotland, and which, although only re- cently introduced, had already been productive of advantage. Up to the year 1842 the erection of fixed engines was, according to the law of Ireland, illegal; but in that year their use was, by a bill introduced by a noble lord who was now a member of that house, made legal. The main proposals in the present bill were that all fixed engines should in future be declared illegal, certain rights in respect to those in existence up to 1862 being retained, subject to such regulations as were required by the commissioners; that bag- nets should be remsved from the rivers, and allowed only to be established three miles from the mouths ; and that the same powers should be conferred on the commissioners in Ireland as in the case of those in Scotland to define what the mouth of a river should be held to mean. It was also proposed that the an- nual close time should be extended to the same number of days as in Scotland, while the weekly close time should extend from Friday to the following Monday. Another important provi- sion was that which provided that where a river is crossed by dams they should be thrown open, so as to give the salmon access to the upper waters of the stream. In former times tho- e dams were made chiefly of wicker- work and other ma terials of that description, and presented openings here and there through which the salmon could ascend ; but by degrees stone weirs were erected, and those facilities removed. The bill therefore provided for the opening of those dams, and without any compensation, which might seem a hardship ; but it should be borne in mind that it was simply sought to do in Ireland that which had already been done in England. The noble Lord con- cluded by moving the second reading of the bill.— Lord CHELMS- FORD said he had not the slightest personal interest in the question to which the bill related, but that, having been requested by parties who had an interest in it to present a petition against certain provisions of the measure, he had deemed it to be his duty to consider them carefully, and that having done so, he .: ad come to the conclusion that they would operate as an unjustifiable invasion of private rights.— The Earl of DONOUGHMORE said that by the ancient law of this country the fishing in rivers belonged to the owners of the land on each side, but the fishing in tidal waters belonged to the public. These stake nets were but of late origin in Ireland, having been erected there about the beginning of the century, in direct defiance of the law. His noble and learned friend had asked their lordships to introduce into the bill a clause which was to be found in the English and Scotch Salmon Fisheries Acts. He ventured, however, to say that those whose views his noble and learned friend had so ably expressed would not be willing to have the English act extended to Ireland [ hear]. Let the house extend that act to Ireland and he should willingly give up this measure, which was a compromise. He believed that by immensely increasing the produce of salmon, the provi- sion for the opening of free gaps in stone weirs would benefit the lower proprietors as well as the upper proprietors. Any impor- tant alteration in the bill might have the effect of defeating it alto- gether ; and as it had been discussed for several days in the House of Commons he hoped their lordships would pass it in its present form. At the same time, he gave notice that if this compromise should not succeed, he should come to their lordships in a future session for an extension to Ireland of the act now in force in Eng- land [ hear, hear]. The Duke of DEVONSHIRE said his tenants represented that the opening of a free gap in the weir on his property in Ireland would render the salmon fishery in the neighbourhood of that weir en tirely valueless. This opinion might be exaggerated, and he should not ask for any alteration in t he clause respecting those gaps unless an alteration should be made in favour of the owners of stake nets; but if the claims of the latter were to be considered he thought the owners of stone weirs would be entitled to ask the house to do something for them [ hear, hear].— After some further discussion the bill was read a second time. HOUSE OF COMMONS. MONDAY— MR ROEBUCK'S MOTION.— On the order for resuming the debate upon the motion for an address to Her Ma- jesty to enter into negotiations with the great powers of Europe to obtain their co- operation in the recognition of the independence of the Confederate States of North America, Mr ROEBUCK moved that the order be discharged. Lord Palmerston, he observed, had suggested very grave considerations which recommended such a course, and had urged that the time had not come for discussing such a question; but let the noble lord, he added, bear in mind that there were two great dangers— one was the possible recon- struction of the Union on a Southern basis, the other was the ac- knowledgment of the Bouthern Confederacy by the Emperor of the French alone. In conclusion, he said, it was only from a feeling of great respect for Lord Palmerston that he withdrew his motion.— Mr LINDSAY entered into an explanation of the circum- stances and the motives which had led to the interview of Mr Roebuck and himself with the Emperor of the French, and the substance of what had passed at this interview. He replied to some remarks which had been made by Mr Layard on Friday, which he thought were totally uncalled for, and repelled the charge of having obtruded himself into ambassadorial functions. — Lord PALMERSTON said he thought Mr Roebuck had judged rightly in moving to discharge the order, as 110 good could arise from a discussion or a decision upon the motion. He only hoped that this would be the last time that any member of the house would think it his duty to communicate* to a British House of Commons what might have passed between himself and the Sovereign of a foreign country. He did not attribute any blame to the two hon members, but he must impress upon them that the proceeding they had adopted was most irregular. If the Em- peror of the French and the Queen of England had any commu- nications to make to each other they had ambassadors, who were the proper organs.— After a few remarks by the O'Donoghue, Mr Whiteside, and Mr Newdegate, the order was discharged, and the motion withdrawn. FORTIFICATIONS.— The house then went into committee upon the Fortifications ( Provision for Expenses) Bill, after pass- ing a formal resolution in a prior committee for a payment to the Bank of England. In the course of the discussion respecting the details of the measure, Mr OSBORNE called for some definite in- formation as to the intention of the Government regarding the Central Arsenal ; whether it was intended to proceed with what Mr Newdegate had termed an internal fortress.— Lord PALMER- STON said it was not to be a fortress ; but it was thought desirable that there should be a depot for stores in the centre of the country. No sum would, however, be asked for that purpose this year, and the house would have an opportunity hereafter of deciding upon the question.— The subject gave occasion to a short discussion and further explanations.— Sir M. PETO moved to omit from the schedule of the bill the items of the Spitfcead forts, namely, the Horse Sand Fort, £ 25,000; No Man's Land, £ 25,000; and Stur- bridge, £ 25,000. He contended that nothing had occurred to alter the state of this question since last year, and that it was almost impossible for the forts to prevent the passing of iron- clad ships. He cited evidence to this effect, and urged the Government to do what they did last year, suspend the construction of these forts.— Sir J. FERGUSSON maintained that the objections of Sir M. Peto were unfounded, and had been refuted by experience during the last twelve months. He accused him of dealing unfairly with his authorities.— The amendment was opposed by the LORD MAYOR and Mr NEWDEGATE. and supported by Captain JERVIS and Mr LINDSAY.— The Marquis of HARTINGTON denied that the question as to the value of these forts was in the same state as last year. What had happened at Charles- ton had neutralised the occurrences in Hampton Roads, and the power of our artillery had been greatly increased. The opponents of these forts, he observed, are narrow- minded ; they were biassed in favour of floating defences. If the house was willing to trust to our navy alone, and would make that, navy of sufficient strength, we should not want fixed forte, or land de- fences, or even volunteers. But the house must consider what a large naval force, and what a vast expense this would involve. He thought this was not the right plan. The expense would be annual, whereas forts once built would last.— Sir DE LACY EVANS observed that the arsenal at Portsmouth being peculiarly exposed, the Government were right in proposing some means for protect- ing this important place. They were bound to pay attention to the reports of their professional advisers, who, he understood, had recommended certain forts to be placed near Spithead, and considering that the Government were bound to strengthen the defences of our great arsenal, he should vote for the proposition.— Sir F. SMITH considered that the use of the forts, however useful, would not be commensurate with the expense. The question of invasion was utterly out of the question, and our coast defences, our improved artillery, and other resources, could be made avail- able for protecting our dockyards from bombardment. He should vote fort- he amendment.— Ultimately the amendment was ne- gatived on a division, and the votes agreed to.— Other business was forwarded, and the house adjourned. TUESDAY— DISTRIBUTION OF PRIZE MONEY.— Colonel NORTH moved an address to Her Majesty to issue a royal commission to inquire into the realisation of army prize property, and its mode of distribution, and to inquire into the cause of the delays which have in most cases occurred in its dis- tribution to the captors, with a view to a remedy for the same. He gave examples of long delays in the distribution of prize money, and of payments, as he thought, unfairly made out of that fund.— Lord PALMERSTON said Her Majesty's Government had no objection to the motion, being of opinion that an inquiry into the matter might be attended with advantageous results both for the army and navy.— Sir S. NORTHCOTE suggested that the inquiry might be extended to the devising of some remedy for the inconveniences suffered through the manner in which con- flicting claims to booty were now dealt with.— Sir C. WOOD made some remarks upon the subject of the Banda and Kirwee prize money, which had been adverted to by Sir S. Northcote.— The motion was then agreed to. DUTY ON FIRE INSURANCE.— Mr H. SHERIDAN moved a resolution that the duty now chargeable upon fire insurances is excessive in amount, that it prevents insurance, and should be re- duced at the earliest opportunity. Having explained the reasons which had prevented this question being brought forward earlier in the session, he stated the grounds upon which he supported his resolution, and the reduction of duty he proposed, namely, that the present rate of 3s per cent should be reduced Is per cent, and at the end of five years another Is per cent. The immediate loss of revenue, he contended, would be more than made up by the increase of insurances, while the reduction would be a benefit to the country. He showed, in the course of his argument, the vast amount of property that might be brought within the area of insurance, criticising in considerable detail the positions laid down in the work of Mr Coode, upon whom, he observed, the Government relied, but whose authority upon this question he impugned, preferring the evidence of practical men; and he cited the testimony of well- known writers and public bodies to the soundness of his own views.— Mr HUBBARD supported the resolution, which was opposed by the CHANCELLOR of the EX- CHEQUER, but carried on a division by 103 to 67. The house soon afterwards adjourned. WEDNESDAY,— Beyond a discussion on the subject of the refreshment rooms for the house, and the consideration of the Partnership Law Amendment Act, no business was transacted. THURSDAY— LICENSINGPUBLIC- HOUSES.— Mr LAWSON moved a resolution that the laws under w hicli licenses are granted for the sale of intoxicating liquors are eminently unsatisfactory and deficient in power to protect the public ; and, therefore, require immediate alteration. The licensing system, he said, had been condemned by high authorities, by numerous committees, and by public opinion, and he asked the house to agree to the i resolution as leading to the correction of the enormous evils which ! the system infii. ted uDon the country.— The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said it was the object of all to repress and diminish I intoxication by every means in their power, but there were dif- ! ferences as to those means, and the adoption of a vague formula • would be a mere delusion. All abstract resolutions were objection- i able, but this was open to special objections.— After further discus- sion, in which Mr Newdegate, Lord Fermoy, Mr W. Forster, and Sir P. O'Brien took pert, the house divided, when the resolution was negatived by 87 to 21. i The bousthen went into committe of supply pro forma. The Fortifications Bill was read a third time and passed, and soon afterwards the house was counted out. THE DRAMA. HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.— The opera season has reached its termination at this house, so far as the subscription nights are concerned; but as the lessee purposes giving a series of extra nights, we are bound to consider the filial close as still to be at- tained. The prices have been lowered, and the restrictions as to dress not rigidly enforced, so as to allow a large proportion of the public to attend the farewell performances. The first of these has been occupied by the revival of Weber's opera of " Oberon," with the additional recitatives engrafted on the original work by Mr Benedict, who was known to be the composer's favourite pupil, and who was therefore well qualified for so delicate an office. Mr Planch6 has also reset some of the words and action. Tliis revival is indeed the same as the version produced by Mr Smith some three years since, when Signor Mongini, being amongst his troupe of artistes, was cast as Sir Huon, and to which part he did full justice. To supply the place of this gentleman Mr Mapleson very wisely secured the services of Mr Sims Reeves, who is in every respect excellently adapted to fill the character. The opera is got up as well as the resources of the theatre will admit of, ar. d was played before a very full house, who received the various charming morceaux with an evi- dent appreciation of their musical excellence. The opera suffers from the rather confused nature of the story, though the libretto, written by that veteran dramatist, Mr Planch^, is clever, and the words of the different songs rise into poetry far away removed from the bosh which opera audiences are in the habit of nightly listening to. But what with Oberon, his attend- ant sprite Puck, Sir Huon, the Sultan, viziers, pirates, slaves, and the speedy transmission of the principal dramatis personai from one geographical position to another at a most alarming pace, it is difficult to keep one's interest throughout the action. The music, however, though not equal to " Der Freischutz,'' has a charm of its own not to be overrated, as witness the lovely open- ing chorus known in the English version as " Light as fairy foot can fall," the ballad " O Araby !'' and the elegant and dreamy Mermaid's song. Mdlle Titiens is fitted to a nicety as the heroine, but the ills apparent on her habit of forcing her voice are making themselves painfully prominent. Madame Alboni seemed per- fectly inspired as the faithful Fatima, and sang the whole of the music belonging to the character with that peculiar greatness of style which has gained her the reputation of being the finest con- tralto singer in Europe. Nor was Mr Santley, as Sherasmin, an unworthy associate, for his noble voice and refined singing were displayed to every advantage, whilst the easy delivery of the recitatives and the unconstrained purpose of his acting were the themes of constant praise throughout the house. Mdlle Trebelli looked Puck to the life, and sang with all her natural earnestness and feeling, whilst, Signor Bettini, with limited powers, made the most of Oberon. Mr Reeves did his chivalric spiriting manfully, and sang with more than his accustomed energy. The opera will be repeated, together with " Faust," which has caught the ears of the town, if ever opera yet had the power to fill a theatre in the hottest of hot Julys. ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA. — The sparkling and lively comic opera of " Don Pasquale," has been given here three times, Mademoiselle Patti singing and acting her very best as the merry widow. We are glad to find that she has restored the original finale, " La Morale,'' which, being fully within the compass of her voice, and admitting of any amount of those cadenzas to which the agreeable little lady inclines, goes off bravely in her hands. M Naudin has been the substitute for Signor Mario as Ernesto. Signor Ciampi has repeated 1 lis very dry version of the amorous old Don, and Signor Ronconi has dis- played his genuine Italian comedy as Dr Malatesta. Next week we are positively promised " L'Elisir. d'Amore " for the first time these seven years. HAYMARKET THEATRE.— Notwithstanding the great heat of the weather a large audience took possession of this theatre on Wed- nesday evening, and filled it in every part. The occasion was Mr Buckstone's benefit, and the last night of the season, which has extended, as he informed his friends, to fine years'duration, the second five years of his management. The performances com- menced with the slight ballet of " The Star of Andalusia," in which Miss Wright danced very elegantly ; this was followed by Planche's drama of " Charles the Twelfth," in which Mr Alfred " Wigan successfully essayed the part of the Swedish monarch for the first time, and Mr Buckstone took that of Adam Brock, cha- racters originally sustained by Messrs W. Farren and Liston. The meddling Triptolemus Muddlework had a quaint representative in Mr Compton, and Miss Louisa Keeley acted vivaciously enough as Eudiga, singing Barnett's once highly popular song of " Rise Gentle Moon.'' The farce of the " Bengal Tiger" succeeded, and with a sorig from Miss Fosbrook, imitations of Sims Reeves by Mrs Howard Paul, and theold farce of " Deaf as a Post," made a capital bill of fare. The manager gave a telling and business- like farewell address, in which he spoke of the prosperity of his past season, albeit it had lasted for so long a period, and also promised to open his doors again in September next, when amongst other attractions Mr and Mrs Alfred Wigan will renew their engage- ment, and appear in the successful comedy of " Finesse:" Mr and Mrs Charles Mathews will return to the London stage in a new comedy ; and Mr Sothern will introduce soon after Christmas " Brother Sam'' to the notice of the town. Great alterations and improvements are also promised before the curtain, the boxes being about to be redecorated, and velvet chairs placed for the habitues of the dress circle. CRYSTAL PALACE CONCERTS — M TIIALBERG'S FAREWELL.— The sevonth concert of this season's series was remarkable, inas- much as the great and popular pianiste, M Thalberg, took his leave of his English friends and admirers by playing some of his old and favourite pieces professedly for the last time. The pianoforte, one of Erard's, was placed on a platform in front of the great organ in the centre transept and there, before a vast audience of nearly ten thousand persons, M Thalberg played his fantasia on airs from " Mose in Egitto,'' " Home, Sweet Home,'' with its marvellous variations, the quartet from " I Puritani," " the Last Rose of Summer,'' and a fantasia introducing several Russian airs. It is needless to advert for the hundredth time to the wonderful brilliancy of this accomplished gentleman's play- ing ; suffice it to say that he has never been heard to greater ad- vantage, and that he was recalled again and again to receive the plaudits of his delighted auditory. Mdlle Carlotta Patti was the only vocalist, and sang the pretty bolero from " Les Vepres Siciliennes," by Verdi, with great executive skill, also the cava- tina, " O luce di quest anima," from Donizetti's " Linda di Cha- mouni," and the " Echo Song," by Eckert, with pleasant anima- tion, and to the satisfaction of the audience. The overtures to " Semiramide" and " L'Etoile du Nord," and Weber's charming " Invitation to the Waltz" were played by Mr Mann's orchestra with great, precision and finish. SIGNOR CIABATTA'S CONCERT — This gentleman, who has been suffering from severe indisposition, gave a concert at ST James's Hall on Wednesday, at which nearly all the principal artistes now in London gave their assistance, and rendered it one of the most interesting of all the musical reunions held during this busy musical season. Madaae Grisi, released for this occasion only from the penalty for appearing before a London publie by favour of Mr Gye, sang with all her great skill and excellent taste, and was received by a very large audience with repeated marks of the favour due to so old a favourite. She sang " The Last Rose of Summer," with its Italian words, with an expression rarely heard in these days, and, with Madame Alboni, gave such a version of Rossini's " Giorno d'oriore'' as compelled its immediate encore. She likewise joined Signor Giuglini in the grand duett from " Ernani," and Mr 8antley in the final duett from " The Trova- tore," and gave, with genuine comic gusto, her share in the ladies' trio from Cimarosa's " II Matrimonio," in conjunction with Mdlle Parepa and Madame Dolby. True, it maybe, that time has told its tale iipoii many of her upper notes, but the grandeur and beauty of her vocalisation remains unimpaired, and affords a useful lesson to lhe modern aspirants for lyric honours worthy their attention and example. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. Consumption, and all nervous, bilious, liver, and stomach com- plaints 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 6,000 cases which had been considered hopeless. We quote a few: — Cure, No. 46,270 Mr James Roberts, of Frimley, Surrey, of thirty years'diseased lungs, spitting of blood, constipation, liver derangement, and deafness.— Cure, No. 47,121. Miss Elizabeth Jacobs, of extreme nervousness, indigestion, gatherings, low- spirits, and nervous fancies.— Cure, No. 54,816. The Rev James T. Campbell, Fakenham, Norfolk, " of indigestion and torpidity of the liver, which had resisted all medical treatment.''— In tins, lib, 2s 9d; 121b, 22s: 241b, 40s.— Barry du Barry and Co, No. 77, Regent- street, London ; also at 61, Gracecliurch- street; 4, Cheap- Bide; 63 and 150, Oxford- street. THREATENING LETTERS.— On Tuesday a scoundrel named James Mills was convicted of sending letters to Earl Spencer, threatening to accuse him of certain crimes, with a view to extort money. The fellow was sentenced to twenty years' penal servitude. INDECENT ASSAULTS.— On Tuesday Arthur Robert Willoughby Wade, late adjutant of the 3d Surrey Administrative Battalion of Volunteers, who pleaded guilty to five charges of indecent as- saults on pregnant women, was sentenced to eighteen calendar months' hard labour. THE BOROUGH MURDER.— On Tuesday Thomas Lidbetter was tried for the murder of his wife and son. The prisoner, who is about 60 years of age, and a master cabinet maker by trade, had resided at 28, Borough- road for about 20 years, and was generally respected by his neighbours as a quiet, inoffensive man. He had a son of 17, a cripple in body and imbecile in mind. To this un- fortunate boy he appeared from the evidence to have been de- votedly attached, as he was also to his wife. About half past seven o'clock on the morning of the25th of May the prisoner went into the shop of Mr Pugh, a chemist in the Borough- road, to whom he was well known, and told him he had killed his wife and boy, asking him at the same time to go to his house and see for himself. Mr Pugh, shocked at this com- munication, called a police- constable, who went to the prisoner's house, followed by Mr Marsh, a surgeon. There they found the wife lying dead 011 a bed, with her throat cut and " smothered with blood,'' as the officer expressed himself, and the imbecile boy on another bed, with his throat frightfulty cut, but not dead. The prisoner offered no resistance to his apprehension, and on being formally charged he said he " knew all about it," but did not know what he was doing at the time, and that he had been up and down all night long and " could not get itout, of his head." A razor with which the wounds were supposed to have been in- flicted was found on a mantel- shelf in the room where the wife and son lay. The latter, still living, was taken to a hospital, where he afterwards died. The prisoner said he had been trying to kill himself, but could not. He had then a piece of broken rope in his hand. It appeared that in March, 1856, the prisoner was thrown from his cart and taken in an insensible condition to the London Hospital, where he remained for some time, and that in 1859 he met with a similar accident, but attended with more serious results, for on that occasion he lay in a ditch at a lonely place late at night under his cart, which had been upset, and the horse had kicked him 011 the head. His manner since then had been strange at times, and he had become subject to fits of de- spondency.— The jury acquitted him on the ground of insanity, and he was ordered to be detained during pleasure. CHARGE OF MANSLAUGHTER IN A FIGHT.— On Wednesday Joseph West, a labourer, was indicted for the manslaughter of one Richard Collins.— It appeared that on the evening of the 6th of June the prisoner, the deceased man Collins, and some other men were drinking together at the Seven Stars public- house at Starch- green, Hammersmith. A dispute arose, in the course of which the prisoner threw a sovereign on the table, and challenged Collins to fight. They were both the worse for liquor. Collins excused himself at first on the ground that he had no money, but afterwards exclaimed that " if ere a man in the room would pick him up"— meaning if he could find a second— he would fight the prisoner at once, adding that he was a better man than West at anything. A man in the company- named Simpson volunteered to act as his second, and the two men left the house and fought several rounds with varying success, both of them falling to the ground more than once, and Collins receiving a w- ound on the head. At length Collins said he would " give in." The prisoner offered to fight another round, but the challenge was declined. The fight- ing men then returned to the public- house, drank some beer together, and shook hands, and Collins sang a song. The latter then left to go home, but returned later in the evening, and offered to call upon the prisoner at five o'clock next morning and renew the fight. The prisoner agreed, but said he would have his breakfast first. They did not, however, fight again. Collins became ill, and growing worse, died on the 30th of June, more than three weeks after the fight. He was seen three days before his death by Mr Philip Tomlinson, house surgeon at the West London Hospital, who found an incised wound on the top of his head, exposing the bone but not fracturing the skull. Apost mortem examination disclosed an abscess in the brain, which was the cause of death, immediately below the external wound.— The Lord Chief Baron told the jury that an amicable contest was cer- tainly not in law a ground for a charge of manslaughter, though it might result in loss of life. If, for example, two men were fighting with foils and death ensued, it would not be manslaugh- ter; but in the case under consideration the contest was of a dif- ferent character. What was called a boxing match— a spectacle seldom now seen, but which formerly occurred very often, and was encouraged by people of respectability and distinction— was no doubtasortof contestabsolutely unlawful, thoughnopersonal malice might be imported into it. For many reasons it was unlawful— for the concourse of people it collected together, and because it was a contest attended with danger to life, though conducted within certain limits defined by the laws of boxing ; but in the present case, where the prisoner was not the assailant, but was apparently forced into the contest by a blow, and by his opponent saying he was a better man than he in every respect, and where first one gained the advantage and then the other, the jury would have to consider whether it was made out to their satisfaction that the mischief which was done on the 6th of June, and the death on the 30th, were attributable to the prisoner. If, when the de- ceased was getting " the best of it," as the phrase went, he rushed forward and knocked the prisoner down, but in so doing fell and cut his own head, the prisoner would not be responsible. Before they could find him guilty they must be satisfied of two things— first, that the cause of death was the injury received on that occasion, and, second, that the injury was really occasioned by the prisoner, and not by the deceased himself.— The jury, without leaving their box, found a verdict of Not Guilty, and the pri- soner was discharged. ANOTHER FATAL FIGHT.— On Wednesday three young men, named Lee, Chilcott, and Young, were charged on an indictment, and also by the coroner's inquisition, with the manslaughter of one William Nicholls, at West Ham. The prisoners were all Gipsies, as was also the deceased man Nicholls, and some of the distinctive peculiarities of this nomade race were brought promi- nently out during the trial. A tribe of them, numbering about thirty men, and about half as many women, and to which the prisoners and the deceased belonged, were all encamped in the neighbourhood of North Woolwich about the beginning ef last month. On the 4th of June Nicholls's mother, who goes by the sobriquet of " Happy Smith," had a quarrel with the prisoner Lee's wife, and the two women fought together in the open air. Nicholls and Lee interfered to separate them, and they them- selves fought four or five rounds. From that time a rankling feeling of ill- will existed among the parties. About half- past seven o'clock on the morning of the 15th of June, nearly a fort- night afterwards, a lad named Binks, residing at Barking,' hearing a noise in a place called Polsey- lane, went to the spot, and saw Nicholls and the prisoner Lee stripped to the skin fighting— the prisoners Chilcott and Young acting as seconds. Nicholls was resting on Chilcott's knee, and Young applied a sponge and lemon juice to his mouth between the rounds. The fight lasted for some time, when Nicholls received a blow on the jaw from the prisoner Lee, which caused him to reel and fall, and he died in about half an hour afterwards. The body was seen by Mr Morris, a surgeon in the neighbourhood, three hours after death ; blood was then issuing from one ear, and a post mortem examination revealed the rupture of a blood vessel, gorging the material of the brain wiih blood, and which, Mr Morris was of opinion, was the cause of death, and might have been occasioned by a blow or a fall, or by excitement. It was described by one of the tribe, who was examined as a witness, as a fair stand- up fight, and it was elicited from other witnesses , that Nicholls fought with such indomitable energy that he sometimes fell from the recoil of his own blows, and that Chilcott, his second, frequently urged him, but in vain, to cease fighting, the reply being that he had not received a cut, and would fight until he got one.— The Lord Chief Baron, in summing up the case, remarked that there was this difficulty about it— that the cause of death, whether from a blow or a fall, or from excitement, was left entirely in doubt. He ovi ned it struck him that in such a case it would have been a far better course to indict the parties for a breach of the peace rather than for what had proved to be a mere accidental result contemplated apparently by nobody. There appeared to have been a great deal of excite- ment on both sides, but there should have been some evidence more distinctly ascribing the death to the immediate circum- stances.— The jury, under his lordship's direction, acquitted all three prisoners. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. MURDER AT LEEDS.— At York, on Monday, John Gair, aged 53, was tried for the murder of Alice Gair, at Leeds, on the 3d of April. It appeared that the deceased woman, with whose murder he stood charged, lived with him as his wife. She appeared to have bought and sold clothes. By their united means they had a very comfortable home, and the prisoner seems to have been much attached to her. She was, however, of drunken habits, and had frequently been seen in the company of a man named Davis, a fishmonger, of whom the prisoner became jealous, and this feeling led to frequent quarrels between them, the deceased threatening to leave, him, and on one occasion a broker was sent for to sell their furniture and break up theL home, and she left him /' or a short time. He, however, seemed to have made peace with her, and they again came together. On the 2d of April he went to draw his pension, and while he was away the deceased removed some of her furniture, in order to leave him, and he heard that she had been drinking with Davis and sitting on his knee. The prisoner was greatly exasperated, and charged the deceased with being too intimate with Davis, and she said, " If she had the blame she would have the gain;" and the prisoner then said if she would not live with him he would take her life or Davis's. She left him, and went to the house of a man named Boharina, and the prisoner soon after went there in search of her, and found her there with Davis, and a violent disturbance then ensued between the men. They afterwards met at the house of a person named M'Manus, where she had gone to sleep, and the prisoner, through M'Manus's wife, obtained the permission of the deceased to sleep with her, promising not to disturb her and to leave next day for Shields. He seemed very much agitated before going to bed, and said to M'Manus, " It's no use, Tom ; she means going off with Davis, and I'll have his life or her's." He then spoke of his old razor, which he had in a box, and asked M'Manus if he had seen his new one. At length he was persuaded at a late hour to go to bed. At that time the deceased was asleep, lying on her left side. M'Manus and his wife slept in one bed in that room, and the prisoner and deceased in another, and also two children of M'Manus's. Early in the morning a noise was heard, and on M'Manus jumping up he found the woman with her throat cut, and the prisoner in the act of cutting his own. Before this occurrence the prisoner was heard to say that he be- lieved the deceased would be the end of him, as he could not bear her conduct, and he thought he should never live to draw another pension, as he should be hung for her. His con- duct to the deceased, so far as it had been observed, had been always kind, and she had every comfort her station required.— For t>. e defence it was urged that the prisoner had been greatly aggravated, so much so that he was not master of himself nor of his actions; and if the deceased had not committed suicide, which was conclusively established, and the act had been done by the prisoner, the circumstances showed that at the time he was not sane and that he had narrowly been prevented committing suicide.— The jury, after an absence of three quarters of an hour, returned with a verdict of guilty, but strongly recommended the prisoner to mercy on account of the extreme aggravation he had received from the deceased.— His lordship intimated to the jury that their recommendation would be forwarded to the proper quarter, and assuming the black cap the usual sentence was passed. CURIOUS ACTION FOR TRESPASS.— At Hertford, on Tuesday, the case of Sowerby v Wadsworth was tried. It was an action in which Col Sowerby, a gentleman of property, complained of the defendant, the proprietor of the George Inn at Luton, Bedford- shire, for trespassing on land called the " Lilly Hoo," within the manor of Lilly, between Hitchin and Luton, with horses, and also for placing hurdles thereon. The defendant pleaded that the place is a common and public highway for all persons to go and return with horses, at all times, at their free will arid pleasure. The plaintiff did not deny the right of way, but alleged excess.— Mr Hawkins, Q C., Sir George Honyman, and Mr Archibald were for the plaintiff; Mr Sergeant Shee. Mr Woollett, and Mr Ludlow were for the defendant. Lilly Hoo, within the manor of Lilly, is situate midway between Luton and Hitcbin, about half a mile from the public road between those towns. A public road, 60 feet wide, and mostly covered with beautiful turf, leads from the Luton and Hitcliin road on to the Boo, and then across the Hoo to the Ickmeld highway, which runs along the whole length of the common at the other end. When it reaches half- way across the Hoo it branches off in two directions, and there are several other roads and public bridle ways in different directions. Between 1770 and 1780 public races were held on the Hoo, arid will be found chronicled in Weatheiby's Racing Calendar of that period as the " Lilly Hoo Races." and it seems that races of some sort were held here as lately as 30 years ago. There is a farm called Lilly Hoo Farm, occupied by Mr Coleman, the eminent trainer. The place appears rather a favourite resort fc; purposes of picnics, or " gipsying," games of cricket, and so forth. I11 December last some young farmers met together for the purpose of having a hurdle race, and the hurdles were taken on the ground in a cart belonging to Mr Marsh, and a Mr John Sworder paid a man for putting them up, while the defendant, Mr Wadsworth, lent some horses for the race, one of which was ridden by Mr Marsh. The plaintiff brought three actions, one against each of these gentle- men. Mr Marsh and Mr Sworder acknowledged the plaintiff's right, and paid a small sum as evidence of acknowledgment. The present defendant, however, tried to set up a defence on the ground that there was no " excess" over the admitted right of way, for that, after all, in a race parties might be said merely to " go and return," pass and repass; and as to the hurdles the de- fendant had nothing to do with them. It appeared, however, that there were no races within the last 20 or 30 years ( except perhaps a casual race between a cobler and a tinker, not shown to have come to the knowledge of the owner), and the case broke down as to that; added to which it appeared that it was under- stood by all the parties to the race in question that it was to be a " hurdle race." Mr Baron Bramwell thereupon told the defend- ant's counsel that it was in vain to attempt to keep up the defence^ and it would have been well if the defendant had been as wise as- his friends and settled the action. It. could not be said, in com- mon sense or law, that a right of way involved a right to race. And as to the hurdles, it was clearly the' joint act of allthe parties. There was no harm in it; probably the defendant thought there was no real injury, and very likely there was not; but however ungracious the action might appear, there could be no question as to the legal right of the plaintiff. The jury, therefore, had really no alternative ( if they thought the hurdles were the joint act of the defendant with the other persons present) than to return a ver- dict for the plaintiff with nominal damages. The jury intimated their assent to this, and returned a verdict accordingly. THE ROUPELL CASE AGAIN.— At Chelmsford Assizes, on Thursday, an action came on before Mr Baron Channell and a special jury, Roupell and another v Hawes and another, to recover by writ of ejectment an estate at Great Warley, to which the plaintiff claimed to be entitled as heir- at- law of the late Mr Rou- pell. The defendants pleaded that they were legally in possession of the estate in question, under a conveyance by William Roupell, the illegitimate son of the deceased, to whom it had passed by deed of gift, from his father; and the important question involved in the cause was whether this deed of gift was forged or a genuine instrument, the case on the part of the plaintiffs being that Wil- liam Roupell had forged this deed, and also a will, by means of which he came into possession of the whole of his father's pro- perty. This he has since parted with, and the object of the pre- sent and other actions that are pending is to recover back the estates from the parties who had purchased them, on the ground that William Roupell, who at the present time is under sentence of penal servitude for life, became possessed of the property by forgery and fraud, and, consequently, had no legal title to convey it away. An action of a similar kind, it will be recollected, was disposed of at the last summer assizes at Guildford, but upon that eccasion the defendant consented to compromise the matter, and agreed to pay the plaintiff half the estimated value of the estate that was the subject of the action. It is understood, however, that the defendants in the present action are determined not to come to any terms, but to take the opinion of a jury, whether William Roupell is truly charging himself with forgery and fraud, or whether it is not merely a contrivance to regain possession of his late father's property for the benefit of the family ; and this is the important question involved in the present proceeding. The case is expected to last many days. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. CHARGE OF DOG MURDER.— On Monday the Bishop of Bond- street, accompanied by Mr W. Love, chief officer of the Royal So- ciety for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, applied to MR Corrie for a summons against a Mrs Hicks, of Southampton- buildings, for having caused to be destroyed a very valuable dog. It appeared that the dog escaped from a cab in Gray's Inn- square, while Mr Bishop was making a call there, and Mrs Hicks, seeing the animal " panting at the mouth," and believing it to be " going mad," fetched a man from a neighbouring mews and gave him 6d to kill it. It was explained that the lady did it from motives of philanthropy, and had often employed the same man to kill other dogs under similar circumstances. She was connected with a dogs' home, but the society repudiated her acts, preferring that dogs should be lodged at the place of refuge provided for them. — Mr Corrie said there had been no " cruelty'' shown in the way of killing the animal, and therefore he could not grant a sum- mons.— Mr Bishop urged that, there had been ample cruelty in- flicted upon him and his family, for the loss of this dog had com- pletely destroyed their peace and happiness. He would not have parted with it for all the guns in his shop.— Mr Corrie: You can try an action for damages, if your feelings can be soothed by pe- cuniary compensation.— Mr Bishop : I am much obliged to your worship. The Rev Prelate we hear fully intends to try the cause in an.' ther court, and punish Mrs Hicks for her ill- timed phi- lanthropy. THE ISLINGTON MURDER.— William Henry Clarke, aged 17, who stands charged with the murder of the girl Elizabeth Hunter, was re- examined at Clerkenwell police court on Thurs- day. Before the case was brought on the prisoner, with a number of other men, was placed in a row in the yard for the purpose of identification. He was seen by several young girls, and he was identified as being the man who had taken them away for im- moral purposes. The prisoner was, after some further evidence, remanded until Friday next at two o'clock. FROM THE LONDON GAZETTE OF TUESDAY, JULY 14 BANKRUPTCIES ANNULLED.

We have had another week of the most brilliant weather for ripening the cereal crops, and new Wheat i- expected to be offered in Mark- lane next week. The accounts from all parts of the United Kingdom, as well as from the Continent of Europe, c nttrm previous statements of tbe certainty of the most prolific Wheat harvest that has been known for many years. Although the average of prices is now low, still with the prospt ct of euch abundance, we should say that the value will further recede. The sunply of farmers' Wheat has b - en very moderate at most of the provincial markets held this week, but more than sufficient for the demand, which has been in the mere- t retail, at almost a general re- duction of Is per or. Barley, Oats. Heans, Peas, and Flour have parti- cipated in the declining values. The arrivals • f all kinds of grain and Flour during the week, whether from our own growers or from foreign ports, have been very contracted. The attendance of the trade wae limited, and transaction? equally so, with prices tending downwards for both Engli.- h and foreign Wheat. ' I he demand for Flour and Barley dull, but no change in value. The Oat trade better, at Monday's rise of fid, and in some im- tances exceeded for best rnns. Beans and Peas dull. NEWGATE AND LEADEN HALL MAKKETS.— These markets have been fairly supplied this week. The best qualities of Beef, Mutton, and Lamb have made full rates ; otherwise, trade is dull, at uneven prices.

MONDAY, JULY 13.— A large number of the subscribers having departed for Liverpool, the attendance was but thin, con- sisting principally of those bookmakers who preferred the " home circuit" at Abingdon, & c. Nothing new transpired concerning the Tomato decision. Indeed, the subject was barely mooted, the feverish interest formerly excited by its bare mention having apparently subsided. Business was confined to the Liverpool Cup, but with the exception of the force with which the eventual winner, The Knave, " came" in the betting, there were no noteworthy changes. In the early part of the afternoon Oak- apple had decidedly the c- ill of Mr Merry's horse, 5 to 1 being offered against the latter, while not more than 9 to 2 was obtain- able at any time about the former. Ultimately, however, there was a strong disposition to get on The Knave, and 9 to 2 was taken freely about him. Not more than those odds were, however, offered against Oakapple, although for money The Knave was un- doubtedly the better favourite. Joey Jones and Erin go Bragh were both in demand at their quoted prices, but Barchettina was quite friendless until just before closing time, when 100 to 8 was booked about ber. Speculation was almost a dead letter on the Goodwood Stakes and Cup. For the former event 8 to 1 was taken about Bellman, who advanced a point afterwards, and 250 to 100 was laid against Bellman, Blondin, and Knuts- ford " mixed." For the Cup, 4 to 1 was offered on the field; and the only Leger bet that came under our notice was 40 to 1 to a small amount against Bonny Bell. THURSDAY, JULY 16.— Ho attendance.

Hudson, sky blue jacket, and rose cap; Mr Massy, yellow body, pink sleeves, pink and yellow cap; Mr T. V. Mor- gan, magenta, black cap; Mr Samuel, cherry jacket, and sky blue cap. We notice with much regret the death of Mr W. Fuller, of the Blaok Bull, Harpenden, so well known and respected in the racing world for his many social qualities and warm- hearted hos- pitality. Mr Fuller was associated with Mr F. Fisher, Mr Coward, & o, and had New Brighton, 8imple Simon, and other horses, equally well known during their Turf career, under his care. He died on Thursday, the 9th inst, after a short illness. DEATH OF ANOTHER SPORTSMAN.— Mr Thomas Perkins, of the Pleasant Inn, Manchester, who for upwards of thirty years had been an ardent admirer of horse racing, and was consequently well known on the Turf, expired on the 11th inst. His remains were interred at St Luke's Church, Cheetham, near that city, on Wednesday last, in the presence of upwards of a hundred relations and friends. The late Mr Perkins was in his 55th year. WORCESTER GRAND STAND.— Certain of our metropolitan con- temporaries, says the Worcester Herald, will have it that a new Grand Stand is required, and some of them even have it that such a building will be forthwith provided by a joint stock company ( limited). Our knowledge of those matters only amounts to this, that the committee are about to rebuild the Steward's Stand, and that the opportunity will be taken to provide convenient offices and increase the Stand accommodation on points from which every part of the race course may be viewed. Spilsby Races took place on Tuesday last, July 14. A Purse of 25 sovs, heats, one mile and a half, was won by Mr T. Bancroft's bay gelding Confidence ( h b), 6 yrs, beating Mr Kirkham's brown dolt Ripley, 3 yrs ( second).— A Silver Cup, heats, one mile and a half, was won by Mr Hayes's bay mare Flotilla, 5 yrs.— A Purse of 15 sovs, heats, one mile and a half, was won by Mr Clarke's brown gelding Cronstadt, 5 yrs, beating Mr Hayes's bay mare Flotilla, 5 yrs ( second). THE HAMBURG HORSE SHOW.— The great agricultural meeting at Hamburg has resulted, so far as the exhibition of English stock was concerned, in a comparative failure. This is mainly attri- butable to the injudicious fixture, so immediately preceding our own great national gathering at Worcester, a blunder for which Professor Wilson is said to be responsible. Had the continental show been a fortnight after instead of before our own, the quality of the several classes would no doubt have been much higher. The £ 60 premium for the thorough bred stallion best calculated to improve the sound and the stout was awarded to Vortex, an own brother to Voltigeur, and a winner of similar honours at some of our own country meetings. iJ arleston took the £ 15 as second best, and Hobbie Noble was put out of it from his twisted fore legs; with Mainstone, Aristodemus, and a few others also in the entry. The Arabians, considered to be a better lot, were headed by an old grey of Count Schlieifen's, with Lord Raglan's Crimean charger as the next on the prize sheet; and Mr Groves took the open prize for cart stallions with a Yorkshire horse; while there were sundry other classes for hunters and hacks, but with very few English animals amongst them. Mr James Weatherby, of Burlington- street, represented our national interests as one of the judges of thorough bred and riding horses; and Capt Barthropp, of Rochester, was one of the judges of heavy draft horses. It becomes more evident every year that the middle of July is not exactly the time for a summer meeting at Aintree, and to maintain the prestige of the Liverpool July Meeting it was the general opinion of those present at the recent anniversary that Mr Topham would do well to alter his " fixture, '' which was quite a happy one when there was nothing particularly startling between Ascot and Goodwood for owners of horses to look after: but with the marked improvements that have of late years taken place at the Stockbridge, Newmarket July, Abingdon, Stamford, and other meetings, some of their con- temporaries must give way, and there is nothing to feel astonished at in Liverpool being the sufferer, con- sidering what a distance it is from all the principal training quarters. Another great drawback to the last an- niversary was the fact of business having to commence on Monday, to avoid clashing with Stamford and Pontefract, for the consequence was that neither bipeds nor quadrupeds mus- tered in any thing like force on the opening day. The first race, the Befton Handicap, with twenty entries, was reduced to a match, and the Befton Slakes to a walk over for Barchettina, as King of Utopia, who was on the ground, was lame; and after the third and fourth races had been contested by fields of three each it was quite refreshing to see seven two year olds go down to the post for the Tyro Handicap. Of these Lady Mary was by far the best- looking, and " little" Grimshaw was for once caught napping when he allowed Virginia to beat her by a head, as the latter is only moderate, or she should have beaten Confidence at 491b for the Sweepstakes on the same course, run an hour previously. Bceotian had all his work to do to beat Gaiety for the Selling Race, which says little for his racing abilities; and either Fisherman's Daughter must have gone off considerably, or Lady Mary did not run to within a stone of her proper form in the Tyro, when we consider the positions they occupied in the race for the Great Lancashire Produce Stakes. Lord Adolphus, Syren, Cardinal, and Little Saxon made up the field, and as Fisherman's Daughter had beaten Syren easily at Manchester, while all the others had run but moderately, with the exception of the dark Little Saxon, it seemed there was only the latter for Mr Stevens's filly to beat. But Lady Mary, for the first time, and most unexpectedly, proved herself as good as she looks, by defeating Lord'Adolphus and Syren very cleverly ; and as there was no excuse for this pair, she must be set down as more than moderate, even supposing we are to ignore the performance of Fisherman's Daughter, which cannot be anything but incorrect, seeing how far she was behind Syren. The result of the Mersey on Tuesday will strengthen this idea, for Persuasion and Fisherman's Daughter had run so closely to- gether at Manchester as to prove them about on a par, and yet Persuasion beat not only the Pretty Girl filly very easily, giving her 51b, but Practitioner also, the latter appearing in difficulties soon after the flag fell, so hot did Persuasion make the pace. The Cup managed to attract eleven starters, and it was evident that of these The Knave, Joey Jones, Fantail, Oakapple, Victor, Dr Syntax, Flytrap, ? and Erin go Bragh were going for some money, the fact of Edwards being on The Knave causing those who were so anxious to " plunge" on Bar- chettina at Newmarket to offer any price to " get out." The Knave was much fancied from the time it was known Mr Merry had determined to run him, which there appeared some doubt about up to Saturday last; still, the partisans of Joey Jones, Fantail, Oakapple, and Victor were all sanguine, and at the last moment Dr Syntax and Fantail were discovered to have good outside chances, the Doctor having been tried a real " good thing" overnight, which probably lost him the race, as the ground was too hard for a horse to run two miles two days in succession. He looked particularly well, as did also The Knave, Oakapple, Joey Jones, and Victor, barring the latter's " dickey" leg, which gave way before they had run a mile. Previously to this he had run out at the stable turn, and taken Blithfield and Barchettina with him, thereby destroying what chances they might have had. A more serious mishap befel Oakapple, who was kicked so severely by Joey Jones at the starting post that it was a surprise how he ran so well in the race. There were many changes during the contest, although Fantail made strong run- ning for two- thirds of . the distance, which could not have been gratifying to her backers. Little Marson could not hold Dr Syntax, and was compelled to let him run in the front rank throughout, while he had not strength enough to prevent the horse running all over the course when he began to tire, so that The Knave won easily at last, and proved that the world had been quite mistaken as to his capabilities, for, in place of speed, he exhibited good staying qualities, and on nearing the turn into the straight Edwards had to use his spurs pretty freely to get the horse to the front. The fact of Biithfleld finishing fourth caused many to suppose he might have won had he not run out, they having failed to observe that he obtained that honour purely through two or three of his opponents pulling up; and we opine that subsequent running will prove the result to have been pretty correct, unless it should be upset by Oakapple, whose chance was put out before the flag fell. Never- theless, Colonel Towneley cannot but regret more than ever the accident that prevented Imperatrice starting, for over a mile and a half, receiving 51b, she beat The Knave two lengths last Good- wood meeting, and when handicapped to receive 21b she had him quite safe for this event, on paper. Dr Syntax, with a stronger jockey in the saddle, is certain to pay his way; and the same may be saidef Erin go Bragh, when he is put to his proper distance. The three concluding items on the second day were not productive of incident, Misfortune having been so thoroughly despised by the handicapper that she could not fail to win the half mile Plate, when receiving 351b from a horse like Teddy, for Johnny Armstrong had given her but 261b in the Bentinck Testimonial on the first day. On Wednesday old Hesper made his first appearance this sea- son, and showed himself to be as speedy as ever by defeating Con- fidence when giving him 51b, while he also gave nearly two stone to Coronet, who won the Selling Race an hour afterwards with the greatest ease from Antipodes, although there was little in this, for the latter ran a thorough brute, having stopped dead as a stone the moment Challoner called upon him. Neither of Livingstone's opponents in the Stanley Stakes could live with him, staunch as were the fielders, who depended mainly on the two year old Appenine, a colt by Weatherbit out of Rosati, that came out with a pretty good reputation, but failed to run up to it, as he finished behind the 81b penalised Practitioner. The Molyneux Cup was booked a real good thing for the Goodwood Cup candidate, Fairwater, and she did not disgrace herself, for after having been disappointed by Cistercian getting in her way within the distance, she ran Johnny Armstrong to half a length, and there is no telling how good the latter may be at the mile and a quarter, for he has done wonders this season. We should like to have seen The Knave in the field, as his per- formance with Fairwater would have shown what chance the mare has in the Goodwood Cup with Buckstone, who " tried" The Knave at 121b, it is said; but Mr Merry is doubtless satisfied with Buckstone's defeat of Fairwater at Chester, as the horse won so easily that the 5lb different terms in which they meet at Good- wood is not sufficient to alter their positions. Young Rapid was brought out instead of Practitioner for the Knowsley Stakes, the latter having let his party " in the hole" when they stood him in preference for the Mersey Stakes, and the freedom with which they laid odds showed what great confidence they had in the son of Colsterdale, who very easily upset a " pot" on Corinthian Tom, a stable companion of Virginia, and a very good goer. The Liverpool St Leger settled Bonny Bell's pretensions for the great " Bellinger," as although she merely started to make the field strong enough for the added money to be gived, her action con- demned her the moment she had settled down to work, and she never appeared able to go the pace made by Fanfaron, whom Borealis had only to wait upon and canter away from just when Challoner liked to let her go. This virtually concluded the poorest day's sport of the meeting, as Fairwater declined to meet Caller Ou for the Queen's Plate, and there was nothing on the ground for the 10 sovs Sweepstakes. With only the two south country meetings at Winchester and Southampton to clash with Nottingham, each will have fair play, and the forthcoming week's sport promises to be as good as we could possibly expect with Goodwood so close at hand. The Nottingham programme is a full one, and, supposing neither of the half- dozen events yet to be entered for fall to the ground, there will be nine races on each of the two days. There iB little variety, however, in the bill of fare, handicaps greatly prepon- derating, and half- a- dozen of these are to be discovered in the first day's list. The Robin Hood Stakes are for two year olds, on a six- furlong T. Y. C., and, there being no hill to mount, the " noisy" Garotter, having escaped a penalty, should be the first to greet the judge, failing which Loafer ( 31b extra) will about do the trick, as Greenland is hardly forward enough in condition yet to get the journey. The Nottinghamshire Handicap, one mile and three quarters, is a little out of Prince Plausible's distance, and Carisbrook is con- sequently bound to beat all the heavy weights, with only 7ft 131b, for Adventurer gives him 131b, and he is more leniently treated than he was at Liverpool. Dulcibella has been out only once this year, and then she was beaten easily by Suburban at Warwick— Flirtation being a more dangerous opponent of Carisbrook, for he is within 71b of Bally Edmond, through the Mountain Maid filly and Oberon, and we have serious doubts as to whether Brighton can give him the year, good as the Epsom horse's trial wit h Mil- lionaire may have been just before the Northumberland Plate. My Mary would be " best in" of the whole twenty- six ac- ceptances in her old form, but ran badly in the Corpo- ration Plate at Newcastle; and Bandage is the only one of the middle weights capable of competing with Flirtation, who ought to give him a stone for the year. Blithfield will af- ford his party an opportunity of judging how he would have fared but for his mishap at Liverpool; and he will, with Flirtation, Brighton, Carisbrook, and Bandage, find plenty of backers if at the starting- post, having all the best of the weights, looking at the time of year, with everything but Bandage, and the latter gets a pull of something like 51b only. We have, however, the highest opinion of Brighton and Flirtation for this event, and anticipate the triumph of one of the pair. In the Bradgate Handicap Neophyte is let in at 7st 101b, and as his true form is now exposed he will probably be " run out," which may not be the case with many of his opponents, of whom the most formidable are Bathiide and Tipler, the latter being especially dangerous. On the second day we have the Bunney Park Stakes, with Al- pheus ( allowed 51b), Lady Mary ( 31b extra), Light ( 51b extra), Garotter, Fisherman's Daughter, and Vandervelde for the best of the twenty- one subscribers; but as Lighc gave Garotter a three lengths' beating at Bath, the 51b should not prevent her holding him safe, Alpheus being the most likely to trouble her, Garotter can scarcely lose the half mile Rufford Stakes, as, should he win the Robin Hood, he will just escape the penalty, and he will probably prefer this encounter to the Bunney Park, if he does not also cut in for the Nursery Plate, which is only a half mile race. He has 8st 41b here, and Vandervelde 8st, the pair being quite as " well in" as Virginia ; and if they are overthrown it must, be done by one of the light weights, the Frenchmen being very dangerous, if in earnest with either Mdlle de Rosay or La Belle Feronniere. The Chesterfield Handicap is over a mile and a half, and will depend materially on the results of the Bradgate Park and Not- tinghamshire Handicaps, although we cannot fail to notice that Bathiide and Cadeau are let in on the most easy terms, Bertha, and one or two others that are also well treated, being more likely to shine at Goodwood. The remaining events completed are of no general importance. The forthcoming anniversary of the Winchester Meeting will be greatly benefited by the change of fixture, and there are two valuable prizes to be picked up out of the seven advertised for Tuesday next, the Grange Park Stakes being worth something like £ 400. There are 53 subscribers, including Hengist ( 41b extra), Vacuna, and Molly Carew ( 71b extra); and unless the latter be especially reserved for the Findon at Goodwood, she will be the favourite, although we hold Hengist in the highest esteem, as he was not quite fit at Stockbridge, but ran a good horse not- withstanding. For the half- mile Handicap Plate Confidence will take some beating, unless W. Goater can find something better in his stable, Nathalie only having any perceptible advantage over him in the weights. The Hampshire Stakes, Flirtation will probably decline in favour of his Nottingham engagements, and then Bally Edmond will be anything but out of the race with 8st 121b, for the distance will suit him. The Southampton handicaps are, in the main, subject to the Winchester running, and we can only take cognisance of the First Southampton Biennial, for three year olds, wherein Baldwin looks a " moral," as he receives 51b from Charlemagne, who is the second best performer, but has not been out once this season. The four remaining events closed are all handicaps, in one of which, the Welter, Optimist figures at a tempting weight. SALE OF BLOOD STOCK AT HUNGERFORD. THE PROPERTY OF THE LATE MR J.

G. Craven. Esq. Lessee, Clerk of the Course, and Handicapper: Mr Edward Wm. Topham. Judge: Mr R. Johnson, York. Starter: Mr Mar- shall, Northampton. Indifferent returns now so frequently follow the best- filled sheets at Summer- tide as to leave nothing really wonderful in the shortcomings at Aintree after all. The fact, however, of totally different things going on at the same time in the South, may well excite attention, if not recal the time when Liverpool was all the rage, and yielded to none the palm. Opponents, it is true, were then feeble and few, nor could then have been dreamt of the sur- feit of racing which has since sprung up. Of the damaging effect of the latter upon what should have been the meeting of the past week there cannot be two opinions, and though opposition is ever likely to be the order of the day, there are some yet hopeful of restoring complete success on the banks of the Mer- sey. For this end a reduction of the meeting to two days has been suggested, with a programme of ten or a dozen items per diem, and finally, as so many fixtures have crowded into the week long assigned to the north western gathering, to steer clear of the lot by taking another. These sug- gestions, as far as we can learn, have met with approval in the quarter most interested, so that time is alone required to deter- mine tke practicability of their being carried out. With regard to past arrangements it should not be forgotten that, at no little inconvenience to himself, Mr Topham on this occasion generously commenced his meeting a day earlier, so as no longer to interfere with Pontefract. This alteration necessitated, of course, an early rising on Monday of the metropolitans, who arrived in ample time for the Sefton Handicap, first decided. However, of the nine- teen coloured on the card, only Cerintha and Don't Come Late were on the spot, and the added " fifty'' being granted, the former had no difficulty in successfully opening the ball for Lord Stam- ford, to whom also was credited the succeeding Sweepstakes for three year olds, for which nothing was sent to oppose Barchettina. The remainder of the racing was remarkable for " in- and- out" running, the greatest coup of the afternoon being the overthrow in the produce Stakes of an immense " pot" ou Fisherman's Daughter, about the first beaten, while the winner turned up in Lady Mary, who herself had been bowled over in a previous race. The Selling Race might have passed unnoticed but for an incident of which the public may look to us for explanation. Hesper, one of the entered seven, had been weighed for, but strict orders were given that his number was not to be telegraphed until fur- ther orders. Of this the man in charge knew nothing, and copying the number and rider, unseen by the clerk to whom the directions were given, put then up, to the great astonishment of Mr Dawson, who had them forthwith removed, as it had then been determined not to run the horse. During the proceedings, and at the close, The Knave was in force for the Cup, at 100 to 30, and 5 to 1 were offered against Oakapple. Joey Jones had friends at 6 to 1, and a point more might have been had about Fantail; 8 to 1 was booked against Victor, which price was also taken about Erin- go- bragh, and afterwards offered; Barchettina being supported ait 10 to 1. Other events touched upon included 16 to 1 offered against Knutsford for the Goodwood Stakes, and 100 to 30, taken to 900 sovs, about Buckstone for the Cup. In the evening, besides the usual throng at the Albion, a numerous division took possession of the pavement nearthe mar- ket- house, whichwas impassable for hours. Save, however, thatthe favourite advanced to 3 to 1, no change occurred in the prices above given for the big event on the morrow. On Tuesday the usual enormous company on the course and stand not only made amends for a scant attendance yesterday, but tested stronger than ever the universal interest centred in the Cup race, no fewer than 40 acceptances, two thirds the number entered, confirming the excellence of the handicap. Three races originally on to- day's list having failed, a Free Handicap was substituted for one of them, so that in all there were half- a- dozen races, the first being the Welter Cup, wherein True Heart upset, by ten lengths, the odds of 7 to 4 betted on his solitary opponent, The Cutler. Of the quartette stripping for the Mersey Stakes, Practitioner, on the strength of his Worcester performance, was backed at evens, but succumbed to the splendid- looking and speedy Persuasion, who beat him easily. Eleven runners, — as last year,— next showed for the Cup, the principal changes in the betting for which was the advance during the forenoon of Dr Syntax from 20 to 1 to 100 to 8, while, in consequence of the field being much larger than was anticipated, The Knave receded to 4 to 1 offered. Having furnished below the fullest possible details of the contest, we may mention here the confusion and narrow escape of two or three animals that preceded it. Vicious as ever, it became neces- sary to have an attendant to the last with Joey Jones, but, directly the muzzle was removed, and the leading rein detached, he began lashing away, and after missing others, at last caught Oak- apple in the stifle, the latter staggering so badly from the blow that, for a time, Mr Marshall had doubts about starting him. The horse, however, soon recovered, and being in front when the word was given, maintained a position among the foremost flight for a mile and a half, when he suddenly fell back, the wonder being how he got so far, for, on subsequent examination, it was at first believed a rib was broken. Of the others, it will be seen that Victor broke down, after bolting early, and extinguishing with his own the chances of Blithfield and Barchettina, the issue being that The Knave pulled through easily, though, had the boy been able to finish with Dr Syntax, it is more than probable the tables would have been turned on Mr Merry's horse, whom Edwards steered with the nicest judgment. The splendid weather with which the racing opened also favoured the proceedings on Wed- nesday, when the expected meeting in the Stanley Stakes of Livingstone and Persuasion, coupled with the arrival overnight of Fairwater for the Molyneux Cup, promised an exciting wind- up to the meeting. Hopes in the first instance were, however, annulled by the scratching of Mr Phillips's mare at 12: 15, soon after which the sports were resumed by Hesper landing the odds of 7 to 4 on him for the Fifty Sovs Handicap. Antipodes, carrying the bright colours of Lord Sefton, also weighed for the latter race, but twice broke away, the second time minus Grimshaw, his rider, who threw himself off upon discovering that the bridle was broken. The Molyneux Cup, or rather prettily modelled tankard, with three goblets and tray, all in silver, to match, was booked a cer- tainty in most quarters for Mr Cartwright's mare, but, after get- ting disappointed at the distance, she was never able to get beyond the girths of Johnny Armstrong, the winner, who was not backed for a shilling by the stable. The Liverpool St Leger introduced the stable companions Borealis and Bonny Bell, also Fanfaron— the former proving successful. 25 to 1 being the price subsequently offered against her forthe Doncaster event, as was 100 to 1 agst Bonny Bell. Caller Ou next cantered round alone for the Queen's Guineas ; the sport thus terminating at 3: 30, as it began at twelve o'clock, with a walk over.

Owen's b c Antipodes, 3 yrs, Sst 121b A. Edwards 3 Betting: 6 to 5 on Confidence, 9 to 4 aget Antipodes, and 4 to 1 agst Virginia. With the latter slightly in command, they ran together to the distance, where Antipodes died away, and the favourite showed in advance. The two year old, however, came again half way up, but never quite reached the old one, who won a fine race by a head ; bad third. The BENTINCK TESTIMONIAL ( Handicap) of 10 sovs each, h ft, with 100 added, for three year olds and upwards; winners extra ; the second saved his stake; one mile ; 18 subs. Mr Gordon's b c Johnny Armstrong, by Annandale, 4 yrs. Sst 41b J. Doyle 1 Mr T. Hunt's ch f Misfortune, 4 yrs, 6st 61b Thomas 2 Mr Bell's br f Flower Safety, 3 yrs. 5st 71b J. Grimshaw 3 Betting : 9 to 4 on Johnny Armstrong, and 7 to 2 agst Mis- fortune. They cantered for a quarter of a mile, when Doyle set the favourite going, but at a very moderate pace. He was at- tended by Misfortune, who once reached his head, but ran wide at the straight., whence Johnny had it all his own way ; for al- though at the finish a desperate effort was made on the Hednes- ford mare, it amounted to nothing, and she was beaten easily by a length ; Flower Safety, who refused to gallop a yard, finishing a wretched third. The TYRO HANDICAP of 5 sovs each, with 50 added, for two year olds ; winners extra; half a mile. t Mr Hodgman's br f Virginia, by Vedette, 7st 81b T. French I Mr Saxon's chf Lady Mary, 7st 41b J.

Owen's b e Glasgow, 7st Hoystead 0 Betting: 5 to 2 agst the Sabra colt, 3 to 1 agst Lady Mary, and 7 to 2 agst Virginia. The latter, in the middle of the track, came away with a slight lead of Lady Mary and Glasgow, nearly level with whom was the favourite, next, the rails. When about fifty yards had been covered in this order, Lady Mary took up the running, closely attended by Virginia, these within the distance being joined by the Pretty Girl filly, who got indifferently off. In a few strides, however, nothing seemed able to live with the leader, so much so that, at the enclosure, Grirashaw ceased riding for a moment, whereupon French called upon Virginia, who, amidst tremendous uproar, collared Mr Saxon's filly at the Stand, and won in almost the last stride by a head. The Pretty Girl filly was third, a length and a half off, twice as far in front of the Sabra colt, who was fourth, Glasgow being fifth, the Flash filly next, Macbeth last. A SELLING STAKES of 5 sovs each, with 30 added, for all ages; half a mile; 7 subs. Mr H. Owen's b c Boeotian, by Ignoramus, 2 yrs, 7st ( 20 sovs) Hoystead 1 Mr J. F.

Osborne 3 Betting: 3 to 1 on Boeotian, who jumped off with the lead, and at the lower end of the enclosure was joined by Gaiety, who bored him from the centre to the judge's side of the course, but never got up and was defeated by a head ; Gun Trick ( by himself on the left) being a pretty good third. The winner was bought in for 22gs. The GREAT LANCASHIRE PRODUCE STAKES of 10 sovs each, h ft, with 100 added, for twa year olds ; colts 8st 101b, fillies 8st 71b ; with certain penalties and allowances ; the second received 50 sovs our of the stakes ; T.

Naylor's b c Little Saxon, Sst 71b Challoner 6 Betting : 5 to 4 on Fisherman's Daughter, 7 to 2 agst Syren, 7 to 1 agst Lady Mary, and 8 to 1 agst Lord Adolphus. The start was delayed nearly half an hour, principally by Lady Mary refusing to join her horses, but eventually they got pretty well away, the favourite, on the inside, leading, succeeded by Syren, Lady Mary, Little Saxon, and Lord Adolphus, almost in line, Cardinal wide on the right of them. These positions were main- tained for about two hundred yards, when Fisherman's Daughter suddenly compounded, upon which Lady Mary assumed the com- mand, and coming away at the Stand with Syren and the Ashgill colt, the three ran an exciting race home, Mr Saxon's mare hold- ing her own to the end and winning by half a length, while Lord Adolphus heading Syren in the last two or three strides saved the " fifty" for second by the same same. Two lengths divided third and fourth, the others being beaten off. TUESDAY.— The WELTER CUP of 40 sovs, added to a Handicap of 5 sovs each; winners extra; gentlemen riders; professionals 31b extra; one mile and a quarter; 6 subs. Mr T.

Persuasion, and 100 to 15 agst the Pretty Girl filly. Persuasion jumped off at score, and having her immediate attendants— the Pretty Girl filly and the favourite— beaten at the distance, won in a canter by two lengths; half as far dividing second and third; Acolyte, last throughout, was tailed away ct the finish. The LIVERPOOL CUP of 200 sovs, added to a Handicap of 25 sovs each, 15 ft, and5 if declared; winners extra; the second saved his stake ; two miles ; 63 subs, 23 of whom declared, and pay 5 sovs each.

Grimshaw 0 Betting: 4 to 1 agst The Kuave, 6 to 1 each agst Fantail and Joey Jones, 100 to 15 sgst Oakapple, 7 to 1 agst Victor, 10 to 1 agst Erin go Bragh, 11 to 1 agst Dr Syntax, 12 to 1 agst Flytrap, and 25 to 1 each agst Barchettina and Blithfield. The latter, soon as the canters were taken, tried all he knew to get rid of his rider, and, being otherwise fractious while led to the post, somewhat delayed the start, which, after one slight failure, was effected at 26 minutes past three o'clock. Lord Westmoreland's colt made play, but, having been kicked by Joey Jones in the stifle prior to the flag falling, he dropped back after the first hundred and fifty yards, and the running was taken up by Fantail, tit whose heels in a body, on passing the Stand, were Dr Syntax, Joey Jones, Oakapple, and The Knave, succeeded by Victor, who bolted to the right at the turn beyond, and took with him Blithfield and Barchettina. Entering the far side, the Doctor drew upsides with Fantail, and raced with her for the lead, which each obtained alternately, fol- lowed in the order named by the light weight, The Knave and Joey Jones, clear of whom Erin go Bragh, Flytrap, and Lady Maria, behind whom at a wide interval came the " thrown- out'' trio, headed by Blithfield. There was no change in front until at the Canal Bridge turn the favourite and Joey Jones drew up to the leaders, Oakapple going on fifth, and Flytrap next, to half- way in the bottom, where Dr Syntax showed clearly in command. However, in rounding the bend, Joey Jones, The Knave, and Fantail took such close order with him that it was impossible to say which had the best of it, though at the straight the colours of Boyce's mare were once more viewed in the van. Joey Jones being in difficulties in the ensuing few strides, and Fantail beat- ing a retreat just within the distance, the two left in advance were Dr Syntax, throwing his head about in all directions, and Flytrap, waited on by Mr Merry's horse, who, having the inside berth, was next, indulged with a slight lead. A judicious pull, however, immediately brought him into his former'posi- tion to the commencement of the enclosure, when the Doctor and Flytrap fairly stopped to The Knave, and he won easily by half a length; twice that difference separating second and third. Blith- fleld, coming through his horses below the Stand, cantered in fourth several lengths off', and Fantail was fifth. Barchettina, whose pilot's leg had been in contact with one or two posts in the contre- temps above described, trotted in sixth, Erin go Bragh seventh, Joey Jones eighth, and these only passed the chair, though, for the satisfaction of certain readers, we may add that Victor, who pulled up dead lame, and Lady Mary also came on to the paddock, only, however, like Oakapple, last of all, to walk into it. A FREE HANDICAP PLATE of 30 sovs; winners 71b extra; half a mile. Mr T. Hunt's ch f Misfortune, by Longbow, 4 yrs, 6st 121b Thomas 1 Mr Bowles's bk g Fig, 5 yrs, 9st J.

The three placed were in front throughout, Mis- fortune making nearly all the running, and winning by a length; same between second and third; the others, of whom Teddy was last, not being near. A SWEEPSTAKES of 10 sovs each, h ft, for two year olds ; Sst 101b each; fillies and geldings allowed 31b, and maidens 51b; win- ners extra ; the winner to be sold for 150 sovs if demanded; half a mile; 7 subs.

The latter was slightly in advance for nearly a distance, when the favourite took the lead, shook off the old horse at the Stand, and, bounding over a black patch of earth, won by four lengths; bad third. J. Grimshaw weighed for Antipodes, 7st 31b; but the colt twice breaking away, as detailed in another place, they started without him. Antipodes not having quite reached the post, the bets respecting him are off. The STANLEY STAKES of 15 sovs each, 5 ft, with 50 added; two year olds 7st 41b, three 9st; fillies and geldings allowed 21b; winners extra ; T. Y. C.; 6 subs.

Kill or Cure made the running, with Antipodes in attendance, to the centre of the Stand, when Coronet came with a rush on the right and won cleverly by a length ; a head between tha second and third; Fernando beaten off". The winner was bought in for 70gs. The MOLYNEUX CUP, value 200 sovs, added to a Handicap of 200 sovs, by subscription of 10 sovs each, for all ages; winners extra; one mile and a quarter; 24 subs.

Grimshaw 5 Betting : Even on Fairwater, 3 to 1 agst Cistercian, 11 to 2 agst Johnny Armstrong, and 100 to 15 agst Doefoet. Fairwater ran in front to the mile- post, after which the command was taken by Doefoot, who being half turned round as the flag fell got a little the worst of the start. She was succeeded by Muffler, Cistercian, and Mr Cartwright's mare to the bridge turn, where Lord Ux- bridge's colt shot to the fore with a clear lead, but coming back to the others midway in the bottom, he entered the straight with a trifling advantage only, maintained it to outside the distance, and then died away. Thence Doefoot was again left in advance, but was immediately headed by Cistercian, who swerved in front of Fairwater at the moment she attempted to go up, Challoner being then compelled to stop his mare, and pull round to the in- side. Meanwhile Johnny Armstrong, who had been last nearly all the way, besides running out at the lower bend, came to the front, deprived Cistercian of the lead in a few strides, and stalling off the top weight, who made her final effort at the Stand, won very cleverly by half a length ; the third beaten a length, with double that advantage over the fourth. The KNOWSLEY STAKES of 10 sovs each, h ft, with 100 added, for two year « lds; colts 8st 101b, fillies and geldings 8st 61b; win- ners extra, with certain allowances; the second received 30 sovs out of the stakes; T.

Edwards 3 Betting: 7 to 4 ( at first 5 to 2) on Young Rapid, and 9 to 4 agst Corinthian Tom. The favourite jumped oft with the lead, but near the distance was headed for astride or twoby Corinthian Tom, after which the command was resumed by Mr Craven's colt, who won in a canter by a length and a half; same between the second and third. The LIVERPOOL ST LEGER of 10 sovs each, with 100 added, for three year olds; colts 8st 101b, fillies 8st 61b; winners extra ; the second received 30 sovs out of the stakes; one mile and three quarters; 16 subs. t Mr T.

Fanfaron cut out the work a couple of lengths in advance of the favourite to rather more than a distance from home, whence the latter gradually crept up, and taking the lead half way up, won in a canter by a length; Bonny Bell, who started merely to get the added money, cantering in a dozen lengths from the pair. HER MAJESTY'S PLATE of 100gs; three year olds 8st 31b, four 9st 71b, five 9st 121b. six and aged 9st 131b; two miles.

ABINGDON RACES, Stewards: Lord Bateman, Col Goodlake, V. C.; E. M. Atkins, Esq. Clerk of the Course : Mr J. F. Verrall. Starter: Mr M'George. Judge: Mr J. F. Clark. Secretary: Mr C. Cox. Numerous as were the race meetings of the present week, Abing. don most successfully " held its own'' against all comers, for although it clashed with the Liverpool fixture the attendance was larger and more fashionable than on any previous anniversary, while, on the first day more especially, the " fields'' by far eclipsed those of former years. If anything, indeed, the card on Tuesday was rather overdone, with eight items for decision, and the tedious delays that took place fairly wearied out the majority of spectators long before the last race had been brought to issue. The delays alluded to were caused by the trouble Mr T. M'George experienced in getting the horses from the post, a difficulty that appears to be generally developed at Abingdon ; and although the final race was fixed for half- past five, it was just seven when the Craven Handicap was run off, an event that a large portion of visitors did not remain te witness, seeing that " the special" left Abingdon for Didcot at a quarter of an hour before that time. The fields were, however, smaller on the second day, and time was well kept, which is more than we can say for the course; and while congratulating Mr Verrall on the success that attended the first year of his accession to office, as also the worthy and indefa- tigable secretary, Mr C. Cox on the result of his exertions, we would suggest the necessity of employing extra hands in clearing the ground another year. In the crowded state of our columns this week, we must of necessity condense our introductory remarks; and in truth the sport, though ample, was not of a nature to require lengthened comment. Of the eight starters for the Trial Stakes, the betting was chiefly con- fined to Umpire and Queen of Trumps, the former being backed at evens, and the latter at 3 to 1, and to the two the race was vir- tually confined. Lord Coventry's horse, on whom Adams sat quite still all the way, getting home a head only from " the Queen," on whom Grimshaw made a most determined effort at the finish. It was some time before a favourite could be " spotted" for the Nursery Plate, but at length one of the light weights, Petit Oiseau, was backed at 5 to 2, but did not obtain a place, and Wangle Eye turned up the winner. Backers, however, were more fortunate in the next race— the Han- dicap Sweepstakes— which, like the Nursery, brought out a large field, for the selected Grey Hen colt getting off in front, and the second favourite, Tornado, very indifferently, the former beat Overture very cleverly by a neck. Curie proved herself superior to the half- dozen opposed to her for the Marcham Park Stakes, and changed hands for £ 150, just a " century" over her entered price ; and Mr Ten Broeck's colours were again in the ascendant in the succeeding race, for Echo— who was about equal favourite with Oceola— landed the Maiden Two Year Old Stakes, which brought out a " baker's dozen.'' The Berkshire Stakes was a comparative failure, for out of the ten who declared content only four started, and the race proved a runaway affair for the five year old Gavazzi, whose public form was so lightly esteemed that he was let in at 6st 41b, at which weight— receiving 331b from Rubicon— he beat the latter by eight lengths. Grisette justified the confidence of her backers by bowling over her ten opponents for the Ladies' Plate, and entered for £ 20, was sold to Mr R. Sut- ton for 115 guineas. The betting on the Craven Handicap was very wild, and matters were not improved as the Ring began rapidly to " thin" during the false starts. At first Manrico was as good a favourite as anything, but he soon " eva- porated," and at last Alcibiade was probably in most es- teem. The winner, however, turned up in The Principal, whose victory brought a long and wearisome day's racing to a close, for the heat throughout was intense. The news ; of The Knave's victory for the Liverpool Cup reached the course I some time before the termination of the racing, and Mat Dawson — who had taken 500 to 50 about the horse— was very heartily congratulated oil tile result. The name of the second, however, did not transpire, so that other " place'' bettors had to wait a little longer before ascertaining their fate. The victory of The Knave led to 100 to 30 being taken about Buckstone for the Good- wood Cup. Very little, however, was done on forthcoming events: 20 to I was offered currently against Knutsford for the Goodwood Stakes, and 25 to 1 taken about Holly Fox for the Derby. The weather on Wednesday was again gloriously fine, and the heat not so oppressive as on the former day. Many of Tuesday's competitors had evidently had their measure taken and " settled" accordingly, and the number of runners to- day was, therefore, limited. Lsfra was made a hot favourite for the opening sweep- stakes, nothing else, in fact, being backed besides 8urbiton Hill, who was invested on at 3 to 1. Bar these 10 to 1 was obtainable; an enthusiastic bookmaker, indeed, offered " a ten pound note to a bottle of soda water" against one of the winners of the previous day without provoking any one to risk a bottle of that refreshing beverage. Crisis, on the strength of running Becky Sharpe to a neck for the Triennial Stakes at Ascot, was in fierce demand for the Abingdon Stakes, which she won after a good race home with Faith, who was giving the favourite 31b. After some uncertainty as to whether the Free Handicap would come to anything, two only having weighed, Foie de Gras at length put in an appearance, and thus theadded money was secured. The betting on this event was all " heads and tails," and much too indifferent to quote, although Peru, who was not on the cards, was the best favourite at last, and beat Gasconade by an easy half length; a would- be objection on the part of the jockey of the second came to nothing. The Stand Plate turned out the " good thing" it looked for Gipsy Girl, who was backed freely at evens, while the some- time- fancied Derby nag Tom Fool ran so " un- kindly" that his owner expressed a sincere desire to sell him a bargain. A pot on Bright Whim was upset by Nancy, who was sold for a trifle over the entered price to John Nightingall. After his easy victory for the Berkshire Stakes— which, as already stated, he won by eight lengths— Gavazzi was esteemed good enough to back at evens for the Culham Stakes, but, to the con- sternation of his backers, he appeared unable to move to- day, and, like the German Baron's horse— last throughout—" he drove everything before him" and did not pass the p^ st, while the litt. le- thought- of Mermaid won by a length and a half, and brought the meeting to a close. TUESDAY, JULY 14.— The TRIAL BTAKES of 5 sovs each, 2 ft, with 50 added, for all ages; allowances and penalties; T. Y. C.; 22 subs.

Queen of Trumps showed in advance for about a hundred yards, when the favourite took the lead, Golden Dust going on sec md, and The Queen, on the inside, next. Thus they ran at a slowish pace for the first quarter of a mile, when the leader " turned on the steam," and Golden Dust gave way to Lord Bateman's mare soon after entering the straight.

HUNGERFORD~ RACES. Stewards: His Grace the Duke of Beaufort and Capt Handley. Clerk of the Course: Mr J. F. Verrall. Starter: Mr T. M George. Hungerford being very close to so many of the best training grounds ought to be well patronised, but the fixture unluckily, was in the same week with so many others on this occasion, and although the entries were pretty good several of tha horses were engaged elsewhere, and from the continuation of dry weather the race courses have become so hard that trainers find it impossible to run their horses very often. In fact, as it is, a great many now go " like cats upon hot bricks." The weather was remarkably fine and warm, but the attendance was not so large as we have seen here upon former occasions. Speculation, however, was very brisk amongst those present, and although the fields of horses were small the racing was far better than expeoted. There was a sale of blood stock on the course before the races, the property of Mr Clark, but the lots brought but very poor prices. The racing commenced at two o'clock, the first event decided being the Craven Handicap, which was carried off by Mr York's horse The Principal, by Filbert, who beat theotlier very moderate " crocks." The Berks and Wilts Stakes only produced four runners, Bally Edmond being top weight, but in spite of this he was made the favourite, but was easily defeated by Lavender, a good- looking mare by Escape, who won the Reigate Handicap sometime since; she has very much improved since then, and Bally Edmond having to give her 3st4lb, never had a chance. The Ladies' Plate was won very easily by Overture, a small filly by Teddington, beating six others; and the Selling Plate was carried off by Mr Brayley's Surbiton Hill, who brought 90gs to the race fund. A Handicap, seven furlongs, brought the racing to a conclusion on the first day; nine horses put in an appearance, and the affair proved very speculative and profitable for the book- makers, who had a good turn up, for Lufra, who was not fancied, won easily at the finish, through Lord Bateman's horse, Lord of the Manor, " cutting it" at the distance, when he had the race apparently safe. The attendance on Friday was considerably larger than that of the first day, and larger fields brought out for the different events. The Selling Races materially benefitted the fund, no less than 360 guineas being realised. Mr Verrall, as at Abingdon, managed the business of the meeting most efficiently, and in his hands we have no doubts as to the future prosperity of the meeting. THURSDAY, JULY 16.— The CRAVEN STAKES ( Free Handicap) of 5 sovs each, with 30 added; winners 51b extra; one mile and 8 Mr York's The Principal, by Filbert, 4 yrs, 7st 101b ( carried 7st 111b. including 51b extra) G.

They ran in the order named for a mile and a quarter, when Necklace passed Flirtation ; but no other change occurred until three quarters of a mile from home, when the favourite, Lavender, and Necklace were nearly abreast, and continued running so until just below the distance, when Lavender obtained the lead, and won very easily by a length; half a length between second and third; bad fourth.

The favourite made the running for three- quarters of a mile, when Surbiton Hill, who had been in close attendance upon her, came on with a strong lead, and won in a canter by six lengths ; Abernethy a bad third. The winner was bought in for 100 guineas. The JACK O'NEWBURY HANDICAP of 3 sovs each, with 20 added; three quarters of a mile; 8 subs. Mr W.

The four placed lay in front throughout. The Grey Hen colt came away half way up the distance, and won easily by three parts of a length; two lengths between tiie second and third; half a length between the third and fourth; Jack in the Box was fifth, and At- traction last.

Wangle Eye, however, caught the latter in coming into the straight, headed her in a few strides, and won easily by six BELL'S LIFE IN LONDON, JULY 19, 1863. lengths; Stonewall Jackson a bad third; Attraction was last, beaten a long way. Stonewall Jackson, in taking the preliminary canter, bolted and fell over the ropes, and pitched Hibberd on his bead; fortunately, however, he was not hurt. The winner was bought in for 300gs.

BETTING ON THE COURSE. GOODWOOD STAKES. 9 to 1 agst Blondin ( taken freely). GOODWOOD CUP. 3 to 1 agst Buckstone ( taken freely). DERBY. 40 to 1 agst Birch Broom ( taken). STAMFORD RACES. Stewards : The Earl of Uxbridge and the Hon C. W. Fitzwilliam. Judge: Mr J. F. Clark. Starter: Mr Markwell. Clerk of the Course : Mr S. Merry. The festival of St Swithin was on Wednesday last unattended wet, Jupiter Pluvius having apparently fallen out with the '•^ P '*< and failed in his annual tribute of moisture. The absence of T^ k on St Swithin's day augured favourably for pleasant wea- th'\ during the Stamford meeting ; nor were those who attended the pretty race course— the Midland Goodwood as it has been not inaptly termed— on Thursday disappointed in that respect. The day was most delightful, the sun being sufficiently veiled by light clouds to cause the atmosphere to be less oppressive than has re- cently been the case. Stamford, under the fostering care of Mr Merry, has of late undergone a " revival," and from its " last legs" has been " set up " again. The great amount of racing new taking place in all directions, however, must naturally have a prejudicial effect on some of the minor meetings, and the almost unprecedented " clashing" during the past week was alone the cause of the falling off observable both in the attendance and in the number of horses " on the spot" at Stamford. The usual aristocratic house party at Burghley House was on this occasion unfortunately not assembled, owing to the absence of the Mar- chioness of Exeter from the mansion during some necessary repairs. There was, however, a very large muster of " fashion- ables'' present, amongst whom we observed Lord Exeter, Lord Strathmore, Lord Westmoreland, Lord Stamford, Lord Cardigan, Lord Courtenay, Lord Canterbury, Lord Andover, the Duke of 8t Albans, Lord Uxbridge, Count Batthyany, Capt Savile, Sir H. des Voeux, Lord Milton, Capt Lowther, the Hon G. W. Fitzwilliam and the Hon C. W. Fitzwilliam, Capt Michael, Mr G. Payne, Mr Bevill, & c. Against this strong array of < lbackers" an equally formidable muster of " fielders" were pre- sent; the " coign of vantage,'' however, as will be seen below, being decidedly in favour of the " gentlemen. " On the opening day, Thursday, the fields were somewhat limited, and the winners " spotted" in a manner that caused the bookmakers to have generally " a bad time of it." The Stamford St.. Leger, as usual, resulted in a failure, only twu of the twelve subscribers going to the post. Tippler, with 3 to 1 on him, had no difficulty in walking away from Taje, who looked and went badly, and was entirely unbacked. Midnight Mass was another " good thing," and " evens" was betted before the first race on Tippler and Count Batthyany's good- looking youngster winning respectively the first two events. The betting opened at 7 to 4 on Midnight Mass, as little as 3 to 1 being booked about Procella. Suddenly, however, Lord Stamford's filly receded to 100 to 6 ( offered), and 5 to 1 was laid on the count's colt, and taken freely— a " transformation scene" that elicited wondering comments in the Ring. The great event of the day, the Burghley Handicap, only produced a field of six out of the ten " left in." Amelia was at first a rather warm favourite at 2 to 1, but before the flag fell was " ousted'' in the market by Millionaire, about whom the above odds were freely taken, Lord Exeter's filly receding to 5 to 2. Bedouin, the New- market Handicap winner, was barely inquired after, the brute, by the way, having given a proof of his amiable disposition the day previous by viciously biting off the finger of the poor lad who had him in charge at the Rugby station. The race resulted in a fine struggle between the favourite and Grimston, the former barely winning bya head, Harlequin, ridden by Aldcroft, who only arrived from a victorious visit to Hamburg, as will be seen elsewhere, the same morning, finishing third, three lengths off. The tide of success that had set in for the backers never afterwards deserted them. The remaining races brought out but very small fields, and really require no comment. Odds in nearly every instance were laid on the winners, and altogether the " talent" had but little cause to congratulate themselves on the results of their visit to Stamford. The gentlemen riders' race resulted in a walkover, and brought a pleasant afternoon's sport to an early conclusion. " Between whiles" some speculation took place on the Goodwood events; but not on a very extensive scale. Anfield was in great force for the Stakes, supplanting Bellman as first favourite, 6 to 1 being freely taken about him. Bellman and Blondin were, however, also in great demand, and anything over 7 to 1 would have been eagerly snapped up about either. Knutsford receded to 20 to 1, at which price both Grimston and Evenhandwere insome demand, and at 33 to 1 some little money was invested on Brian Boru. For the Cup 9 to 4 was the highest offer against Buckstone after he had been backed at 5 to 2, and half a point over 4 to 1 was wanted about La Toucques. 100 to 15 was offered against Isoline, and 12 to 1 taken about Atherstone. On Friday the weather was again delightful, and the attendance about on a par with that of the preceding day. The annual sale of a batch of Lord Exeter's brood mares and yearlings, as usual, occupied the morning, but the result was an entire failure, only one of the mares ( the He- roine of Lucknow) being sold to the Duke of St Albans for 350gs. Of the yearlings, nine in number, none were sold, the amounts bid being all within the reserve prices set upon them by his lordship. They were generally considered moderate, with one exception, a brown filly by Ambrose ( sister to Automaton), who was much ad- mired by several of the cognoscenti, and who, after some competition, was bought in for 650gs. The day's sport was of average interest, and the fielders were in some degree en- abled to turn the tables on the backers, the " tide in the affairs of men" setting in more in favour of the bookmakers than was the case en Thursday. Amelia, with 2 to 1 on her, had no difficulty in disposing of her only opponent. Muffler, for the first race, the Ketton Stakes. The Clifden Cup brought out the considerable field of thirteen, and fell to a rank outsider in Mr Payne's Trap- better known as the Catalpa colt— none of the favourites showing at all in the race. The Selling Stakes was another turn for the ring, Baron of Avon, the winner, not being once enquired after. Mr Stevenson, after benefiting the fund to the extent of 20gs, sub- sequently resold him for 60gs. Whatever chance Harlequin might have had for the Stamford Cup was cancelled by his " unkind" running, and the favourite, Millionaire, repeated his previous day s success with considerable ease, although siarting under the disad- vantage of a loose plate, which he lost entirely during the journey. Any odds were laid on Midnight Mass for the Two Year Old Wo- thorpe Biennial, only Lord Uxbridge's Edward the Confessor being brought out to meet the count's crack. The Three Year Old Biennial was won with great ease by the non- favourite Fantail, which brought the meeting to a satisfactory conclusion. Betting on future events was almost at a stand still, and the few quo- tations given below do not call for any especial comment. THURSDAY, JULY 16.— The STAMFORD ST LEGER, a Sweep- stakes of 25 sovs each, 10 ft, for three year olds; colts 8st 101b, fillies 8st71b; certain penalties and allowances; to start at the Stamford corner of the course and run in ( about one mile and a quarter); 12 subs.

They got off in a line, Grimston being the first to show slightly in Front, Amelia on the whip hand lying next, with Harlequin third. In this order they cantered to the Stand, just before reaching which Harlequin took a clear lead, followed by Amelia ana Jack's Alive, Bedouin and Grimston lying next, side by side. Rounding the bottom turn Mr Barber's colt deprived Harlequin of the lead, but. was almost immediately passed by Amelia; Har- lequin going on second, waited upon by Jack's Alive, Millionaire being next, some lengths off, and Grimston last. Rounding the turn into the straight Grimston began to make up his ground, and Amelia tiring before reaching the distance, Millionaire went up to Harlequin, closely followed by Grimston. At the Stand Harlequin was beaten, and a fine race between Millionaire and Mr Parr's colt ensued, the former winning by a head, Harlequin being beaten for second place by three lengths; bad fourth.

The first four were in front throughout, Turcos maintaining the lead to the distance, where he was beaten, and Bohemia took the lead, closely followed by Trap and Merry Hart. Just before reaching the Stand little Grimshaw called upon Mr Payne's colt, and rushed to the front, and Merry Hart at the same time passing Bohemia, a good race was won cleverly by Trap by half a length; Merry Hart defeating Bohemia for second place" by the same distance. Turcos_ was fourth, close up. The others, pulling up, were whipped in by Lord of Li une.

In this order they ran past the Stand to tne second turn, where Harlequin ran out and lost much ground, the Flax gelding going on with the lead, with Millionaire in waiting, Grimston and Balham next, side by side, and Harlequin bringing up the rear. The Flax gelding maintained the lead the next time round, the lot taking close order before rounding the turn into the straight, where Millionaire showed in front. Harlequin, who had run through his horses, lying at his quarters. Within the distance Mr Savile's horse led, but again running out and nearly forcing Sam Rogers on Grimston over the rails, the race was left to Millionaire, who ras home an easy winner by five lengths; a neck separating the second and third; Harlequin fourth, well up.

Peart. For the last three or four years Pontefract has clashed with the last day of Liverpool, but this year, Mr Topham, who is anxious to please the public, gave way, and to avoid run- ning " counter" with Stamford and Fontefract, the Lan- cashire meeting was brought forward, but still Pontefract had to encounter Stamford on the same days. Pentefra^ t was however as well attended as ever, the only drawback upon a good meeting being the excessive hardness of the ground; but for the last three weeks it has been the case at all places. The beautiful scenery in the neighbourhood has caused ic to be aptly styled the Goodwood of the North, and for a " pic- nic," we know of no place we would select sooner than the Pontefract Course. The amount of added money has been increased of late years, and as the committee have a good account at their bankers, we may still look for greater improvement every year, as the town can be reached by rail from all parts of the compass. Special and ordinary trains were run from Manchester and other large towns, which brought an immense assemblage of company. At two o'clock proceedings opened with the Knottingley Btakes, which brought all the six entered, the favourite. Little Stag, patiently ridden by John Osborne, just pulling through by a neck. On the strength of Little Stag's victory, Devotee was made a warm favourite for the Members' Plate, which Charles Fox won easily for " the fielders.'' Balderstene carried off the Speculation Plate, and brought lOgs to the race fund ; and Dic- tator, with the steadier of 8st 121b, won the Great West Riding Handicap easily. The Londesborough Stakes, with ten entries, brought out eight runners, Vanessa and Tarlatan fighting their York battle " o'er again.'' It will be recollected that the pair met in the Zetland, at York Spring, Vanessa, on that occasion, giving Tarlatan 21b, when the latter won cleverly; but to- day Tarlatan had to give Vanessa 31b, which turned the scale, after a splendid race. The Prince of Wales's Cup brought a most satisfactory day's sport to a close, Mr Jackson's Lady Louisa win- ning easily; but Sledmere, Stockman, and Paddy O'Rourke bolted at the last turn and fell. The Stand receipts show a large increase over former meetings; the sport was most satisfactory, and if the fields were not large, the racing was good. It is rather remarkable that all the races on the first day went to Middle- ham, viz, three to Osborne's stable, with Little Stag, Balderstone, and Vanessa; Charles Fox to Bearpark's; Dictator to Fobert's; and Lady Louisa to T. 8.

MANSFIELD RACES- Handicapper : Mr Byfield. Clerk of the Course : Mr Bradfield. Judge : Mr Reynolds. Starter: Mr Martin. MONDAY, JULY 13.— The above races came off under rather unfavourable auspices, owing to the meeting clashing with Liverpool. The delightful weather attracted a number of plea- sure seekers, the Nottingham special train being very largely patronised. The course, which is as nearly as possible oval, and situ- ated on an enclosed part of Sherwood Forest., was very hard and barely covered with herbage. It was three o'elock before the first bell rang for the clearance of the course, and the numbersof five out of the eight subscribers were telegraphed for the Portland Stakes, which was won by Ripley. The Rufford Handicap was a good thing for Eastern Princess, who won, after shaking off Highland Mary, very easily. The Stakes for Beaten Horses was reduced to a match between Captain Knight and Highland Mary, the latter being in front throughout. It was nearly seven o'clock before the last race was run. The management was all that could be desired, but the meeting requires better support from the neighbouring gentry, otherwise it must inevitably fall through. The PORTLAND STAKES of 25 sovs, added to a Sweepstakes of 3 sovs each; weight for age; mares and geldings allowed 31b ; the second saved his stake; winners 81b extra; about two miles; 8 subs. Mr J.

Captain Knight was the first to show in front, followed by Eastern Princess and the favourite; in this order they ran to the Sherwood turn, where Eastern Princess drew up to the Captain and obtained the lead on entering the straight, which she kept round the top turn, followed by Captain Knight, Ripley, and Lord Arthur, Eugenie tailed off. At the distance Ripley drew upon the Princess, and after a fine race won by half a length, two lengths separating second and third. The RUFFOKD HANDICAP of 25 sovs, for all ages; winners extra >' T.

SATURDAY, JULY 11.— The annual meeting of the First Suffolk Yeomanry Cavalry, under Capt Bennet, terminated to- day with a spirited little race meeting at Raynham Downs, near Bury St Edmunds. There were seven entries on the card, the whole of which came off with one exception ( a match between Capt Oakes's Lawyer and Mr Kerridge's Savernake), and two other matches were made upon the ground. The stakes were small, sport being aimed at more than any other consideration, but there was some capital running, and, the weather being fine, a goodly company assembled. The YEOMANRY STAKES of 10s entrance, with 5 sovs added, for horses bona fide the property of non- commissioned officers and men of the yeomanry troop; list each ; one mile, over five flights of hurdles. Mr Kerridge's b g Savernake Mr Cooper 1 Mr Easlea's ch m Lady Alice Mr Tripp 2 Savernake took the lead, and held it until the close of the first round, when he was passed by Lady Alice, who kept the first plaoe until she refused the last flight of hurdles; Savernake then re- covered his lost ground, and, the mare being unable to overhaul him, he won by half a length.

Thus they ran the next half mile, and finished the race without any material change, Bones winning easily, there being some three or four lengths between second and third. In returning to the saddling arena, however, it was found that Bones had become lame; his chances of success in the next heat were, therefore, very remote indeed.— Second heat: Bones started again, but proved of no use; Allow Me and Little Harry, so far as the chesnut colt was concerned, having the race all tneir own way.

In our report of Boulogne Races last year, we mentioned that although nothing could liavebeen worse than the sport t hat was then witnessed, there seemed every promise of improvement, and these surmises have to a great extent been fulfilled, for certainly a better programme was issued this year than last, and greater care has evidently been taken towards improving the general arrange- ments of the meeting. There remains, however, a good deal to be done for Boulogne races before they can be ranked with many other reunions on the Continent, and we expect that in future the authorities of the town will take them further into consideration, for during the past year their attention has been fully occupied in the erection of the Establishment des Bains, which has re- cently been added to the other attractions of the town. The magnificence of this palace of public amusement can hardly be surpassed, the building, which comprises a ball- room, theatre, billiard and reading rooms, & c, together with the laying out of extensive grounds a la Cremorne, having cost upwards of £ 50,000. The greatest drawback to the meeting is the wretched apology for a race course that at present disgraces Bou- logne, but we are told that this evil is likely to be rectified next year, as the lessees of the old course have at last come to reason, and have consented to allow the new race committee for the future to rent it. Fine weather favoured the first day of the meeting last Wednesday, and the racing was witnessed by a very large attend- ance, the sport commencing with a fine race for the Prix de l'Empereur, between La Reine Bert- he and Jean Sans Peur, result- ing in favour of the former, who was made a great favourite of, by the ladies especially, to a large party of whom we heard one gentleman volunteering information that she was no other than the winner of the English Oaks, with her name translated, though we expect Admiral Rous would bring this kind of translation under the wrong nomination act, and the racing tyro who imagined it got considerably the worst of the betting for his ready information by the loss of sundry pairs of gloves. The Prix Imperial was a mere canter for Alerte, but the third race produced another fine contest between Panique and Vapeur, which resulted in favour of the former. The sport terminated with a remarkably well- contested hurdle race, in which Count Talon greatly distinguished himself as a horseman, by the style in which he brought Beau Sejour through the winner. On Thursday a capital day's sport attracted an immense attend- ance. Time prevents us, however, from giving more than just the returns of the steeple chases. We must not forget to mention that Baron de la Motte and Mr Thorn were the Stewards, and that the former gentleman acted in the capacity of judge on both days with great satisfaction to every one, whilst the latter was equally efficient as the starter. WEDNESDAY, JULY 15.— The PRIX DE L'EMPEREUB of l, 500f, for three year olds and upwards of all countries that have never won a stake worth 7,006f; weight for age, with penalties and allowances, & c; two miles ; 3 subs. Count de Lagrange's ch f La Reine Berthe, by The Baron out of Creeping Jenny, 3 yrs, 1071b C. Pratt 1 M Schickler's ch c Jean Sans Peur, 3 yrs. 1081b.... J. Watkins 2 Betting : 6 to 4 on La Reine Berthe. Jean Sans Peur made very steady running for the first half mile, when he began to improve the pace, and led on sufferance to the distance, when the filly drew up to his head, and a slashing race then ensued between them, which resulted at last in favour of the favourite by a short head. PRIX DES HARAS of 2,000f, for three year olds and upwards, bred in France, that have never won a first, second, or third class Government prize; weight for age, with penalties and allow- ances, & c ; one mile four turlongs ; 3 subs. Count, de Lagrange's b f Alerte, by Alarm, 4 yrs,! 241b. C. Pratt 1 M Schicklers b c Paratonnerre, 4 yrs, 1241b J. Watkins 2 M P. Aumont's b c Magny, 3 yrs, 1061b Panted 3 Betting : 2 to 1 on Alerte, and 4 to 1 agst Magny. Alerte went off with the lead, followed by Paratonnerre and Magny, who seemed afraid to go up to his bit, lay off several lengths in the rear, until rising the hill about half a mile from home, when he headed Para- tonnerre with a rush, but was then almost immediately beaten, and Alerte, without ever being approached, won easily by two lengths, Magny being repassed by Paratonnerre in the last few strides, and was beaten by about a length for second place. PRIX IMPERIAL of 4,000f, for four year olds and upwards that have never won a first class Government prize; the winner of a second class 41b extra, and of two or more such prizes 81b ; three miles ; 4 subs. M Itetset's b m Panique, by Alarm, 5 yrs, 1211b ( including 41b extra) Bartholomew 1 M Aumont's cli f Vapeur, 4 yrs, 1111b Spreoty 2 M Schickler's chc Choisy le Roi, 4 yrs, 1141b T. Watkins 3 Count de Lagrange's ch m Gabrielle d'Estrees, 5 yrs, 1251b C. Pratt 4 Betting: 2 to 1 agst Gabrielle d'Estr^ es, 5 to 2 agst Choisy le Roi, and 4 to 1 agst Panique. Panique made running, with Choisy lying second, Vapeur third, and Gabrielle in the rear, until they had gone twice round, when Vapeur, who was pulling very hard, took second place, and Gabrielle gradually drew up to the front rank until they rose the hill for the last time, when she was beaten, as was also Choisy le Roi; but a good race was maintained between Panique and Vapeur all the way up from the last turn, though the latter could never quite reach Panique, who won rather cleverly by nearly a length, Choisy le Roi finishing a very bad third, and the favourite was a worse fourth. A HURDLE RACE ( gentlemen riders) of l, 200f, for horses of all countries ; entrance 120f, h ft; the second received 200f out of the stakes; 1401b each, with penalties and allowances, & c; about two miles four furlongs, over eight flights of hurdles; 14 subs. M Fasquel's b g Beau Sejour, by The Baron, fiyrs, 1501b Count Talon 1 Mr T. Neal's ch h Bocliet, 5 yrs, 1401b Mr Barry 2 Mr Anderson's b g Tally- ho, aged, 1481b Mr James 3 Viscount de Cunchy's ch h Tippler, aged, 1461b .... Mr Jonas 0 Marquis de Langle's b g Waterford, aged, 1581b .. Capt Smith 0 Baron Finot's ch g Museum, aged, 1461b.... M de St Germain 0 M Desvigne's ch g Rigoletto, 6 yrs, 1641b ... . Count du Bourg 0 Mr Chaytor's b g Greyfoot, aged, 1461b Owner 0 Betting : 2 to 1 agst Tippler, 3 to 1 agst Waterford, 4 to 1 each agst Bochet, Museum, and Tally- ho, and 5 to 1 agst Beau Sejour. Tally- ho was first off, but after the first hurdle was cleared Bo- chet took up the running, followed by Tally- ho, Museum, and Tippler in the order named, and then emme Beau; Sejour, lying off whilst a clear interval separated him from Greyfoot and Rigo- letto, who brought up the rear. After passing the Stands for the first time, Museum went up and took the lead, and was closely followed down the hill by Bochet, Tally- ho, and Waterford, with Tippler lying well up, until they had completed another round, when he was beaten, as were also Tally- he ( who was ridden a long way under a broken stirrup leather) and Museum, which left Brochet and Waterford in front; but the latter gave way in a hind leg about half a mile from home, and then the race looked a cer- tainty for Bochet, until over the last hurdle, when Count Talon brought Beau Sejour up with a tremendous rush, and reach- ing the quondam Derby crack a dozen strides from home, won a very fine race by three parts of a length. Tally- ho finish- ing a bad third, Museum fourth, and Tippler fifth. THURSDAY.— GRAND PRIX of 4,000f, for all horses; weight 1501b each; entrance 200f, hft; English horses to be claimed forl5,000f; the second received 400f out of the stakes; three miles, over 25 fences. Baron de La Motte's b g The Colonel, by Cato, aged, 1601b ( including mlb extra) H. Lamplugh 1 M Desvigne's brg Jasirin, aged, lStilb ( inc fib extra).. Quinton 2 M Fasquel's br g Beau Sejour, 6 yrs, 1501b Young 0 Mr Danville's b m Chance, aged, 1501b Euoch 0 Mr Buckley's b g Antelope, aged, 1501b Mr Barry 0 Mr Anderson's b g Tally- ho, aged, 1501b Mr James 0 Mr James's br g Hermit, aged, 1501b Mr Byren 0 Betting: Even on The Colonel, 3 to 1 agst Chance, and 5 to 1 each agst Tally- ho, Hermit, and Antelope. The favourite went oft with the lead, followed by Chance, Tally- ho, Hermit, Jasmin, and Antelope; but Tally- ho blundered at a small bank soon after starting, and was stopped, Hermit at the same time taking second place, which he maintained throughout about three lengths be- hind The Colonel, who made the whole of the running, and won easily by three or four lengths, Antelope coming in third, and Jasmin fourth. On returning to the scales Hermit was found short of weight, and as the Clerk of the Scales declared that the rider of Antelope did net weigh in, the second money was awarded to Jasmin, who came in fourth. PBIX DES HARAS of 5,000f, for entire horses and mares of five years old and upwards; entrance 250f, h ft; four miles, over 28 fences. M de La Motte's b h Catspaw, by Van Galen, aged, 1621b H. Lamplugh 1 Count des Cossette's b m Avalanche, 6 yrs, 1561b.. Capt Smith 2 Count Talon's ch h Whiskey, aged, 1421b Owner i Betting: 2 to 1 on Avalanche. The favourite and Catspaw made alternate running to about the tenth fence, a small ditch, which both refused, and Whiskey taking it all right, got a long lead, which he held past the Stands; but the ather two caught him again in the hay- fie'd above, and the mare then waited on Cats- paw for the next round, looking all over the winner when they passed the Stands again, but over a fence at the bottom of the course she nearly cau. e on her head, and Capt Smith getting his foot out of the stirrup in saving her, let Catspaw gain a long lead, which loss of ground she could never Jquite recover again, and was defeated at last, after a good race, by half a length; bad third. A SELLING STEEPLE CHASE of 2,000f, for horses of all countries; entrance 125f, h ft; weight for age, with selling allowances, & c; to be claimed according to the Newmarket rule; two miles. Col Shirley's ch m Shandy Gaff, aged, 1241b ( 2,000f).. Johnson 1 M Desvigne's ch g Rigoletto, 6 yrs, 1401b ( in, ooo).. G. Quinton 2 Baron Finot's ch g Museum, aged, 1301b Harper 3 The following also ran:— Gisors, Laudanum, Queen of the Vale, and Max. Shandy Gaff, getting many lengths the best of the start, made all the running, and won in a canter by three lengths, Rigoletto, who was remarkably well ridden by G. Quinton, being the only one that was ever able to get near the winner, as Museum was a very bad third, and Gisors a worse fourth. The winner was claimed by M de Choiseuil for 3,725f. The PRIX DES DAMES of l, 500f was won by Count des Cossette's br g Tam Tam ( ridden by Cassidy), beating Count Talon's two, Yare and Villous, after a very good race, besides Count du Bourg's Parodie, who fell in the brook.

WRIGHT'S RACING RECORD.— The Summer Edition of Wright's Racing Becord has just been issued, in " improved form," as com- pared with its predecessors, for the size of the book has been judiciously altered so as to render it less bulky and cumbersome. Printed on thin, hot- pressed paper, and capitally got up, con- taining, as it does, all the racing and steeple chasing— English and continental— up to the end of June, besides the principal nomina- tions, & c, it cannot fail to be universally patronised at this critical portion of the racing season. At the Southdown Hunt Horse Show, held at Glynde last week, there was a very strong entry of three year olds, the class reaching to upwards of twenty nominations, i he first prize of £ 10, with a Silver Cup, went to Mr T. Brown, of Buckhorn Hill, who also took the second premium of £ 10 with another young one of his breeding; while the third of £ 5 was awarded to Mr Filder, of Tevington. Capt Barlow and Mr Cluff were the judges, and Mr Woodman, on whose ground the show was held, the acting steward of the day. The experiment was considered altogether very successful, and it is proposed next year to have both three and four year old classes of young hunting horses, bred in the district. 6 BELL'S LIFE IN LONDON, JULY 19, 1863.

ROYAL VICTORIA YACHT CLUB RYDE, JULY 16.— Yachts at or about the station: Aline, the Commodore; Galatea, T. Broadwood; Avoca, H. M. Godwin; Terpsichore, Capt Tattnall, R N.; Moonbeam, P. Roberts, Chi- mera, E. S. Bowlby; Heroine, H. C. Ashworth : Rose Diamond, Hon W. Quin ; Zillah, T.

Green ( vice- commodore); the Myth, 9 tons, the Com- modore; and the Belvidere, 9 tons, Mr Ciabburn. The second class, made up of smaller vessels, included the Bittern, 7 tons; Mr J. B. Morgan; the Blanche, 7 tons, Mr R. Morris; the Oberon, 5 tons, Mr R. If. Morton: and the Woman in White, 6 tons, Mr J. L. Barber. The Commodore, however, following the example of Mr Ciabburn at the Cantley Begat ta. handsomely declined to com- pete in a second match, and the Enchantress was not at her post when the signal to start was made at 2: 30, and was accordingly disqualified. The course was the same as before. The Blanche took the lead from the first, and was never headed, the Belvidere being second. The first two rounds were timed as follows :— FIKST ROUND.

The Belvidere, although first— and in- deed alone— in her class, retired in the final round ; and the first division thus dissolved entirely, and the £ 10 prize passed, in ac- cordance with the rules of the " club, to the Blanche, which fully maintained her lead, and in fact increased it, in the final round, which was timed as follows:— H. M. s. I n. M. s. I M. M. s. BLANCHE 4 0 3 [ OBERON 4 3 50 | BITTERN 4 9 45 It became a matter of discussion among the committee whether the second prize should, under the circumstances, be awarded. On Friday, July 17, the Challenge Cup of the club was to be sailed for on the Broad, Mr Trafford, of the Alabama, having challenged the Wanderer. Mr J. L. Barber carried off the cup last year with the Wanderer, but that yacht has now passed into the hands of Mr Harvey. No other member of the club had given the requisite fourteen days' notice, and therefore the match would be confined to the Alabama and the Wanderer.

PRINCE OF WALES YACHT CLUB- The June meeting of this club took place on Friday evening, July 10, at the Club house, the Freemasons' Tavern; Mr Webster presided, and the question having arisen as to the steamboat ac- commodation necessary to be provided for the match on the 27th inst, it was moved and carried, that the Oread should, as usual, be en gaged for the occasion, it being understood that in making that selection, which is more than usually expensive to the club, the stewards should exert themselves to the utmost to procure the at- tendance of members and friends. in order to prevent the club sus- taining any serious loss. Three new members were elected. ROYAL LONDON YACHT CLUB. The monthly meeting of this club will be held at the Caledonian Hotel, Adelphi- terrace, on Monday, July 20, at eight o'clock p. m.

ROYAL IRISHTYACHT CLUB REGATTA, DUBLIN- This regatta commenced on Wednesday, the 15th July, and when we say that Kingston harbour presented the appearance of a perfect forest of masts, those who are acquainted with the locality can form some idea of the number of yachts present; we never saw a finer fleet assembled before at any station, not ex- cepting the far- famed Solent. The wind was light and variable, and from all points of the compass during the day, settling towards the afternoon to the S E. The first race was for a piece of plate, presented by the Royal St George's Yacht Club, of the value of 60 guineas. The following vessels started:— YACHT. TONS. OWNERS. SURF 54... C. T. Cowper PHRYNE 55... T. Ledden VINDEX 45... A. Duncan The favourites were the Surf and Phryne. The Phryne took the lead out of the harbour, with the wind at N. W.; the Burf second, Avalanche third, Vindex fourth, iEolus fifth. Im- mediately after rounding the harbour flagboat the Surf's balloon topsail yard was carried away at the tie, which placed her hors de combat for the remainder of the race, she having to fight the Phryne in running and reaching winds with a small square- headed topsail; on the first round of the course, going out to the Kisli Lightship, the TEolus sailed remarkably well, holding second place for some time; the Phryne and Surf then singled out from the rest of the fleet, and the struggle lay between them for the remainder of the race. On the last round the Vindex arid Avalanche were becalmed for a considerable time at the Candlestick Bay boat. They arrived at the flagship in the following order and times ( Dublin time):— H. M. S. I H. M. 8. I H. M. S. PHRTNE 6 54 40 | SERF 6 56 40 | VINDEX 7 4 50 The other vessels not timed. The second race was for a purse of 30 sovereigns, for which the following vessels started: — YACHT.

The Four- oared Gig Race was postponed, owing to a dispute as to which boat was entitled to be called a " banked" or which an outrigger. We shall give a detailed account of all the matches in our next. NORFOLK AND SUFFOLK YACHT CLUB. This club celebrated its second regatta for the season at Wrox- ham on Thursday, July 16 The weather was very agreeable, but the presence of the Channel Fleet in Great Yarmouth Roads rather reduced the attendance of the general public at the meeting. The muster of yachts on the beautiful Broad was also scarcely so large as usual. Still, the list of those present included the Myth, the Commodore ( Mr R. J. H. Harvey): the Red Rover, Mr S. Nightingale; the Alabama, Mr C. S. Trafford; the Maria, Sir Jacob Preston; the Wanderer. Mr R. J. H. Harvey; the Belvidere, Mr W. H. Ciabburn ; the Enchantress, Mr H. P. Green ; the Bittern, Mr J. B. Morgan ; the Blanche, Mr R. Morris; the Oberon, Mr R. K. Morton; the Woman in White, Mr J. L. Barber ; the Augusta, Mr Russell; the Kestrel, Mr W. Butcher ; the Glance, Mr Walter Steward ; the Vampire, Mr. W. 8. Everitt; the Amateur, Mr J. Brown: the Ariel, Mr W. Mann ; the Vindex, Mr J. Tomlinson ; the Vixen. Col G. Wilson ( brother of Sir Arch- dale Wilson, the captor of Delhi, who is now fishing in the High- lands), & c. The weather in the course of last week was sultry in the extreme, but on Thursday it was temperate, and an invigo- ratirg north- easterly breeze enabled the programme of the day to be carried out in a successful manner, although the wind was oc- casionally rather fitful. The first match was for a prize of £ 15, and the following came to the post:— The Albama, 14 tons, Mr Trafford ; the Red Rover, 14 tons, Mr Nightingale ; the Myth, 10 tons, the Commodore ; the Wanderer, 14 tons, the Commodore; and the Belvidere, 10 tons, Mr Ciabburn. The Myth and Belvidere are actually only 9 tons burthen, but for the purposes of this match their owners agreed that they should be classed as 10 tons— that is, that they should claim allowance for tonnage accord- ingly. The My th twice carried away bobstays, once in a preliminary cruise, and o « ce in the course of the match. The Red Rover, pro- fiting by the second mishap, obtained the lead for the first round bul lost it in the five rounds which were sailed. The course was marked out by buoys laid down in the Broad, and the distance traversed exceeded altogether rather more than ten miles. The start took place at twelve at noon precisely, and the first round was completed as follows :— H. M. S. I H. M. S. I H. M. S RED ROVER .. 12 16 45 ALABAMA .... 12 19 O BELVIDERE.... 12 19 50 MYTH 12 17 0 I WANDERER .. 12 19 50 | The Wanderer and Belvidere rounded the buoy which marked the completion of the round so closely together that they fouled The accident was, however, quite unintentional, and they swung clear without having sustained any important damage. In the second round, the Myth, which is a Cowes- built yacht, wherry- rigged, passed the Red Rover, but the first three yachts still kept very closely together. Towards the close of the second round, which terminated as follows, the Red Rover was overhauled by the Alabama:— WALT0N- 0N- THAMES REGATTA. SATURDAY, JULY 11.— This regatta, the second attempted at the pleasant village of Walton, came off on the above date, and was accompanied by the usual paraphernalia of military band, state barge, & c, although it can scarcely be said that it was as successful a one as its predecessor of 1862, the shortcomings being unusually large, as the subjoined account will show. The course was, as before, from the Weir at Sanbury up to the judge's post, a little above Felix House, a short distance below the old bridge, ( which we see is slowly rearing itself again) on the Surrey share, a long mile, against stream. The Maria Wood had been engaged for the accommodation of the subscribers, and a great number of ladies availed themselves of the opportunity thus afforded of witnessing the races. Miss Steer, the well- known hostess of the Anchor Hotel, Shepperton, was the cateress, and did her part well; and Mr Stone, of the Ship, Lower Halliford, provided for the non- privileged portion of the spectators. James Messenger had the manning of ttie umpires' crews under his charge, and Messrs E. D. Brickwood, J. Ireland, and W. B. Woodgate were the umpires in the various races, which were rowed in nearly the following order:— LOCAL WATERMEN; in one heat. THE HALLIFORD CREW (. Middlesex station) 1 THE SUNBURY CREW ( Surrey) 0 THE WALTON CREW ( centre) 0 11ALLIFORD. I SUNBURY. I WALTON. G, Purdue E. Clarke G. Rogerson G. Rose well | T. Stroud | li. Smith E. Rosewell I M. Fulker | W. Wells Keen A. Stroud H. Twist Hamilton ( cox) | Stroud ( cox) | H. Snell ( cox) Hallitord went away with the lead, Sunbury next, and a close race followed among all for abouta quarter of a mile, when Sunbury collaring Halliford, who had never led by more than a few yards, went into first place, and Walton coming up, overlapped Halliford half a length. This state of things continued halfway, and then the Halliford crew, spurting gamely, drew level with Sunbury. Waltonnowfellbehind, and amostexcitingrace continued between the others to the tumbling bay, where Halliford ultimately drew ahead, and increasing their lead, won by two lengths; Walton three lengths behind Sunbury. JUNIOR SCULLS. FIRST HEAT. 3. E. C. Morley— London Rowing club 1 1. J. C. Kearns— Corsair Rowing Club 0 2. Neville Reid— Kingston Rowing Club 0 They were all oil together, Morley and Reid keeping too close to the towpath side and being in momentary danger of a foul, but it luckily did not take place. With Kearns leading a little they rowed some distance, when Morley pulled his right to get away, and Reid, who seemed to have been touched slightly, fell over- board. A good race then went on between the others, Kearns leading, and having taken his opponent's water halfway, he seemed to be winning easily, but Morley rowed up outside him soon after- wards and there was a foul, owing, it was said, to Ktarns pulling his left. Kearns went on and came in first by three lengths, but the foul was given against him. SECOND IIEAT. 2. J. G. Chambers— 3d Trinity, Cambridge 1 1. A. R. Pitt— Wandle 0 Chambers came right away with the lead, and Pitt lost all chance, if he ever had any, by rowing into the weeds. THIRD HEAT. G. Ryan— London Rowing Club walked over Mr B. Dewur, West London Rowing Club, not putting in an appearance. FINAL HEAT. 1. J. G. Chambers— 3d Trin 1 I 3. E. C. Morley— L. R. C 0 2. G. Ryan— L. R. C 0 | Mr Chambers, as before, came away with the lead, and half way down the course was leading by three lengths, Ryan making plucky but ineffectual attempts to pass him. Morley was at this time three or four lengtns behind, rowing very wildly, and steer- ing all over the river, and Chambers, increasing his lead, won by four lengths ; about the same between the others, Morley pulling much better towards the last. GIGS, not outriggeJ. FIRST HEAT. 1. H. Lumsden and H. Cobbett, E. Weston ( cox)— Walton.... 1 2. C. J. Manning and F. F. Lambert, C. Walton ( cox)— K. R. C. 0 A very hollow affair; won anyhow. C.

Brown had also entered, but did not show. FINAL HEAT. Lumsden and Cobbett, E. Westou ( cox) 1 Bond and Smith, Embleton ( cox) 0 This was virtually a walk over, the last- named pair making some objection to their opponents' boat, and not going far. SENIOB BCULLS. FIRST HEAT. 1. E. T5. Michell— Magdalene College, Oxford 1 2. L. P. Brickwood— Hammersmith 0 This was a desperate race for 200 yards, both being great starters, and then Michell came away with the same ease with which he has latterly left all his opponents, and was leading by seven or eight lengths at the Committee Barge, when Brickwood fell out of his boat, and Michell went in alone. Mr Custance, London Rowing Club, did not start. SECOND HEAT.— J. G. Chambers, Third Trinity Boat Club, A. R. Pitt, Waridle, and J. E. Parker, University College, Ox- ford, had entered in this heat, but not one of the three went to the scratch, from various causes, and consequently Mr Michell became entitled to the pot by merely winning his heat. Mr Pitt reserved himself for the Junior Fours, which was set very closely after this race, and Mr Parker, we believe, was not preseiit. DOUBLE PUNTING. E. Clarke and C. Clarke .... 11 T. Stroud and T. Fulker .... S G. Rose well and S. Purdue.. 2 | G. Rogeraon and J. Rosewell 4 They all had a good race, and atter fouling at the turn the Clarkes got the lead and won by 100 yards.

This was the most closely- contested race in the whole regatta, and the interest in it was never lost till the last moment. Tlie London crew, who were a very junior party as compared with their opponents, came away with a lead of half a length, rowing at tremendous pace. This advantage ihey held down the first reach, both steering well, and then the Wandle crew spurted up to their opponents, and led thein slightly till about half the course was rowed, when the London crew went ahead again by a trifle, and a most animated contest was kept up to the Boat- house, the Londoners having the best of it by their station. Both weie now nearly exhausted, and it was anybody's race till close to the Committee's Barge, where Mr Davis putting on his last spurt, the London crew went their length in front, and the Wandle crew immediately afterwards shut up within 50 yards of home.

The Commodore was saluted by the band • with the air, " See the Conquering Hero comes," and was also heartily cheered by the gentlemen on board the committee boat. The match may be altogether pronounced one of the best which the club has ever held, Wroxham Broad being admirably adapted for displaying the fluctuations of a contest. The second match was between yachts olassed in two divisions, for prizes of £ 10 and £ 6 ( the aggregate entrances paid during the day).

This club held their usual monthly meeting on the 6th July, at the Quadrant Hotel, when the ' ollowing business was gone through:— The undermentioned gentlemen were elected mem- bers: W. Trelone, J. Eglese, J. Brain, and J. H. Kearns. The names of those gentlemen who were desirousof contending against the Ariel and Excelsior Rowing Clubs were then taken; they were A. Herron, J. C. Kearns, J. Ellinger, W. Charman, H. Castell, H. Moore, H. W. Kearns, andj. W. Searle. The meeting then decided on altering the days of the club races, in consequence of their interfering to some extent with the matches with the above- named clubs. The following are the fixtures for the races:— July 22, Ariel v Corsairs ( Annual Race); Aug 8, Excelsior v Corsairs ( at Putney); Aug 15, Club Pairs; Aug 22, Excelsior v Corsairs, return ( at Greenwich); Sept 5, Junior Sculls ( captain's prize); Sept 19, Junior Pairs ( with coxswain); Oct 3, Senior Sculls; Oct 17, Club Fours. The meeting then concluded with a vote of thanks to their chairman, Mr J. C. Kearns. ABIEL AND COBSAIK FOUB- OABED RACE.— A change has oc- curred in the Corsair crew, which we published last week, Mr Castell having been compelled to resign his position as bowman, consequent upon illness. Mr J. C. Kearns, the captain, has therefore been shifted from No. 2 to the vacant place, and his brother, Mr H.

WINGFIKLD SCULLS.— This race, as we stated in our last im- pression, takes place next week, the trial race between the chal- lengers, six in number, starting from Putney at five o'clock on Monday, July 20, the winner of the trial to dispute the title of amateur champion with the holder, Mr Walter B. Woodgate, of Brasenose College, Oxford, at twenty minutes past six on Thurs- day, July 2- 3. Mr E. D. Brickwood, as the last holder, not com- peting, will act as umpire. We understand that all the chal- lengers are not expected to start, but that four of the fastest will be sure to show at the post, and that a most interesting contest is likely to result. Enquiries are frequent to know if the amateur from the Tyne is likely to show in such good form as the professors from the same river have for the last few years. Mr Woodgate is said to be rowing much better than he did at Henley. We have been requested to state that the competitors would have been addressed by letter, requesting their attendance at Putney on the two days, but the secretary not knowing their ad- dresses was unable to communicate with them. All letters to be addressed to the secretary of the Wingfield Scullers Race, Messrs Searle boat builders to Her Majesty, Lambeth. THE LONDON CREW. 1. H. Hood 2. H. N. Custance 3. G. Ryan 4. F.

The Kingstonians got a trifle the best of it, but in two strokes the London crew obtained a lead of a quarter of a length, and kept that advantage for 200 or 300 yards, the Kingston party rowing them a desperate race all that time. After this the London Row ing Club gradually got away, and were leading by two clear lengths at the tumbling bay, but easing after this the Kingston crew put on a spurt towards the last, and were beaten by about three- quarters of a clear length.

The losers then began to tail off, and Lumsden and partner won by two lengths. OPEN PAIRS. II. B. Middle ton and E. B. Michell— Magdalene College, Oxford 1 F. W. Bryant and F. J. Tyler— West London Rowing Club .. 0 Messrs H. Hood and F. Fenner were to have represented the London Rowing Club, but Mr Hood, who had been unwell the last day or two, did not feel competent to row. The race be- tween the others was very wild and severe all the way. West London came away with a slight lead, and held it 200 yards, when the others came up, and they led alternately to the middle of the course, when the Oxford pair trying to find a nearer cut through the willows, Bryant and Tyler obtained a commanding lead; but the Oxonians rowed with such spirit after them that they caught them near the tumbling bay, and then another severe race fol- lowed; the West London pair, following theiropponents'example, by fouling the bank, and left Middleton and Mitchell to go in easy winners. An eight- oared scratch race followed, and also a race between two watermen's eights, Mackinney's crew beating Tagg's by a length. LONDON ROWING CLUB. At a meeting of the committee, held at Putney on Monday, the 13th July, the following races were fixed:— Pair- oared Race, August 8th, for prizes presented by Mr M. Shearman; entries to close July 25th ; entries to be made to, and approved by, Mr H. H. Playford; no two senior oarsmen will be allowed to row together. Four- oared Race, August 22d, for prizes presented by Mr James Lay ton, president; entries to close August 1st; entries to be made at the Club Rooms; open to all members. Eight- oared Race, August 29th, for tankards; entries to close August 22d, and to be made at the Club Rooms; open to all members. AQUATICS AT OXFORD. DOLPHIN ROWING CLUB.

On the conclusion of the races the members and their friends adjourned to the Dolphin Inn, the head- quarters of the club, where an excellent supper was provided. AQUATICS AT LYNN. MB EDITOR : I trust you will allow me to correct the mistake which crept into your columns on the 11th inst. They occur in the paragraph " Aquatics in Lynn." The Zephyr and Queen do not, and never did, belong to the Neptune Boat Club, but are the pro- perty of the Zephyr Boat Club. The Zephyr getting the toss took the current side, a most foolish thing, as the tide being against them proved a disadvantage, and not an advantage, as your cor- respondent supposed, and undoubtedly contributed much towards the Zephyr losing the race. Your correspondent says " the Zephyr's crew had it all their own way throughout, and won easily." The fact is that the Zephyr never had the slightest chance, and the Queen was the winner by at least three or four hundred yards.— Yours, & c, JAMES D. DIGBY, 9, Buckinebam- to- i- ace, Lynn, Assist Sec. Regatta. July 11,1863. AQUATICS AT ETON COLLEGE. PAIB- OABS.— The trial heat for this race came off on Monday, July 6. There were six entries, but Hope and Tooth were not able to start, as Hope had a bad hand. The following started: FIRST Row. ETON. I MID- STREAM. I WINDSOR. Hall Lord Melgund I Corkran Pochin | Pope | llickards SECOND Row. ETON. Sherbrooke Newton WINDSOR. Willan Wood Pochin and Hall went off with the lead, which they kept, though at times they were rather pressed; they finally won by Goodman's Raft. Rickards and Corkran second. There was a splendid race for third all the way down from the Rushes ; it was finally won by Pope and Melgund, but only by half a length; Newton and Sherbrooke passed Willan and Wood just at the finish, and came in fourth. Time, 20min 45sec.— The final heat was rowed the following evening. The first three in the trial heat started in the final :— ETON. I MID- STREAM. I WINDSOR. Lord Melgund Corkran Hall Vope | Rickards | Pochin Corkran and Rickards went off at a tremendous pace and took the lead; Pochin and Hall, however, stuck to them, and pressed them hard till Sandbank. Here, as Rickards and Corkran had the inside turn, they gained slightly, and it seemed as if there was going to be a foul at Upper Hope, for Pochin put on a fine spurt, and tried to prevent Rickards and Corkran from taking their water; however, they were not able to do it, but afterwards gained slightly from Upper Hope to the Rushes. After turning the Ryepeck Pochin and Hall pressed Rickards and Corkran again, but could net succeed in passing them. There was very good racing all the way down, but Rickards > md Corkran always kept the lead, and finally won by Searle's Raft. Pope and Melgund had no chance from the start, but nevertheless they rowed a very plucky stern race. There was a nasty wind at the start, and so the time was not so good as on the preceding night. Time, 21min 2jsec. The race takes place at six o'clock on the evening of Wednesday, July 22, from Putney to the lower end of Chiswick Eyott, and will be accompanied by Citizen B, which leaves London Bridge at 4: 40, calling at all the principal piers. ROYAL NATIONAL LIFEBOAT INSTITUTION- TENBY AND LYTHAM NEW LIFEBOATS.— TWO fine new life- boats have just been forwarded by the National Lifeboat Institu- tion to Tenby and Lytham. Both lifeboats are to replace smaller ones, which were deemed unsuitable for the localities They are 33 feet long and eight feet wide, and row 10 oars double banked. Their self- righting qualities were fully and satisfactorily tested on Monday, July 13, in the Regent's Canal Dock, Limehouse. Both boats possess in perfection the admirable qualities of the craft of the National Lifeboat Institution. The Tenby boat is built of teak, and that for Lytham of mahogany. They were built by the Messrs Forrestt, of Limehouse. The cost of the life- boat for Tenbj', amounting to £ 262 10s, was presented to the in- stitution by J. R. Magenis, Esq, of London. The Great Western and South Wales Railway Companies liberally gave a free convey- ance to the old and new lifeboats over their lines between London and Ferryside. The expense (£ 250) of the Lytham lifeboat and carriage was given by Thos. Clayton, Esq, of Wakefield, to the society. A free conveyance was also readily given to the Lytham old and new lifeboats by the London and North Western Railway Company. The National Lifeboat Institution has now ,125 lifeboats in connection with it. Of these 59 are stationed on the shores of the Irish and Bristol Channels, and some of tliem have during the past winter been in- strumental in stormy weather in rescuing many a shipwrecked crew from an inevitable death. It may be interesting to recapitu- late briefly the operations of the National Lifeboat Institution. During the past year, in addition to saving 21 vessels from de- struction, 358 lives were rescued by the lifeboats of the society. For these services rewards amounting to £ 915 18s Id were voted. The number of lives saved by the lifeboats of the society, or by special exertions for which it has granted rewards, since its for- mation, is 13,166. For these services 82 gold medals, 732 silver medals, and £ 17,110 in cash have been granted as rewards. The institution has also expended upwards of £ 72,200 on lifeboats, life- boat transporting carriages, and boathouses. Surely asociety which has thus been productive of the greatest service in the cause of hu- manity will not have to appeal in vain to the public for help, to enable it to continue its merciful work on our dangerous seaboard. We may add that contributions for the National Lifeboat Institu- tion are received by all the bankers in London and in every town in the United Kingdom, and at its house, 14, John- street, Adelphi. MUNIFICENT GIFT.— The cost, amounting to £ 000, of the Bude- haven, Cornwall, new lifeboat establishment lias been presented to the National Lifeboat Institution by the surviving children of the late Mr R. T. Garden, of Rivers Lyons, Ireland, as a memo- rial of their beloved mother, Mrs Elizabeth Moore Garden. An inscription recording this philanthropic gift has been beautifully carved in stone and placed over the doorway of the lifeboat house. The lifeboat is 33 feet long, and rows 10 oars, double banked. She possesses the usual valuable qualities of the self- righting lifeboats of the institution. The boat and her carriage were liberally taken free of charge by the South Western Railway Company as far as Bideford; and on June 19, being the natal day of the deceased lady, their inauguration took place with much eclat. The boathouse is a substantial and commodious erection, and was built from the design and specifications of C. H. Cooke, Esq, London, the lion architect of the society. The new lifeboat establishment at Bude is now one of the most complete and efficient on the coast of the United Kingdom. Probably no heavier surf rolls upon any part of our shores than in the vicinity of Bude, and fearful indeed have been the wrecks in the locality. Last winter twenty- six poor fellows perished there from the ill- fated ship Bencoolen, of Liverpool. This splendid and powerful new lifeboat will, it is hoped, be able to contend successfully with the heaviest of rollers. At midnight, on the llth ult, the Ipswich lifeboat stationed at Thorpe, Suffolk, was the means, under God, of saving six men under the most perilous circumstances. She is a sister boat to the Bude lifeboat, and her cost was presented to the institution by the town of Ipswich. RICHMOND APPRENTICES' REGATTA.— The annual regatta at Richmond among apprentices and others was rowed on Tuesday, April 14, there being altogether thirteen races, under the manage- ment of H. Redknap and E. Bell. The rowing was of a very mediocre character, and subjoined is a brief account of the various heats:— Junior Apprentices' Race for a purse of sovereigns; dis- tance from opposite the Marquis of Lansdowne's Grounds, down round a boat moored off St Margaret's, up round a boat moored off the Duke of Buccleuch's, and finish at Richmond Bridge.— First heat: W. Thompson 1, N. Rapley 2, H. Howard 3, Won by three lengths.— Second heat: H. Mansell 1, T. Young 2, E. Brown 3. A close race, won by a length.— Third heat: E. Bur- gess 1, J. Rapley 2, E. Wheeler 3. Won very easily.— Final heat: Mansell 1, Thompson 2, Burgess 3. Won by three lengths.— Race by Watermen's Sons ; distance from Richmond Bridge to the Railway Bridge and back, for a suit of clothes.— First heat: R. Messum 1, F. Thompson 2, W. Watkins 3. Won by two lengths. — Second heat: E. Howard 1, T. Mackinney 2, W. Jackson 3.— Final heat: Messum 1, Howard 2, Mackinney 3, Thompson 4. Won by six lengths; the last two a long way behind— Senior Apprentices' Race— First heat: J. Glover 1, J. Mansell 2, G. Pig- gott 3. Won easily.— Second heat: J. Callas 1, H. Harper 2, H. Hartlebury3. Won easily.— Third heat: E. Crippsl, C. Wheeler 2, W. Troubridge 3. Won easily.— Final heat: Glover 1, Callas 2, Crisp 3. The winner held the lead all the way, but there was a fine race between the others, and ultimately Crisp finished over Callas's quarter. The distance in this race was the same as in the Junior Apprentices'Race, and the prize a purse of sovereigns.— Tradesmen's Pair- oared Race in gigs, with coxswains, for presen- tation cups, in one heat: T. Eden and C. Wakefield, G. Messum ( cox) 1; J. Harris and J. Fanning, J. Coxen ( cox) 0; J. Smith and C. Bond, C. Malone ( cox) 0. The winners came gradually away from the first, and won by three lengths, but the race between the others was fiercely contested, first one and then the other leading, and Harris and Fanning were second by only a few feet. The course was the same as in the Apprentices Race, only some- what shortened. The attendance to witness the racing was very good, and Mr Caleott's band ( the 1st Surrey Rifles) was on the island, afterwards relieved by a portion of the 9th Surrey, under Mr Pace. YACHTING IN FRANCE.— Advices from Rouen note the arrival at that port of the steam yacht the Dalila, having on board the Vicointe de Chatauvillard. The Dalila has since ascended the Seine, with the view of arriving at the Chateau of St Pierre du Vauvray, a summer residence of Madame de Chatauvillard. The Dalila will shortly undertake a voyage of greater magnitude; she will proceed to the Rhine via the rivers and canals in the north of France, will visit several ports of Holland, and will return to France by the Pas- de- Calais; but it appears doubtful whether the state of the internal navigations of France at this season of the year will permit the first portion of this cruise to be carried out. The Empress has ordered at the forges and yards of the Ocean at Havre a yacht, in which her Majesty proposes to make trips on the Seine. This yacht will be 56ft Sin in length, and will be pro- pelled by an engine of twenty horse power. The hull will be formed of steel plates, and the internal fittings will be of maho- gany. The yacht is expected to be ready for service by the 15th of next month. The commandant of the pleasure flotilla of the Emperor and Empress ( frigate- captain Lefevre de Carville) is now at Havre, in order to superintend and expedite this costly and luxurious construction. A steam yacht, formerly built for the Empress and named the Eugenie, was of ninety horse power, and caused so much injury en the shores of the river, that it was necessary to send her to sea. The Ba- ta- clan, of Havre, has be- come the property of M Lelaidier, engineer of the forges and yards of the Ocean. Havre Regatta will take place on Sunday, Aug 23. A yacht match has been arranged, open to all nations; the com- petitors are to be divided into two classes, and the first prize for the first class will be £ 40, and the first for tbe second class £ 32. A secondary match for yachts, open to all nations, is also an- nounced, for prizes of £ 20, £ 10, and £ 4. PIEBMASTEBS' FOUB- OABED RACE.— A four- oared race was rowed on Thursday, July 9, between two crews manned by the piennasters and others in the employ of the Court of Conser- vancy of the river Thames, the distance being from London Bridge to Lambeth New Bridge, and the crews as under:— All- hallows crew: 1. H. Douglas, 2. Marchant, 3. A. Day, 4. T. B. Whitmarsh, B. Wheeler ( cox). Old Swan crew: 1. J. Byrne, 2. T. Kingsford, 3. W. Hall, 4. A. Baird, H. Brent ( cox). A num- ber of people assembled to witness the race, and betting was 6 to 4 in favour of the Allhallows crew. Mr E. Haniford of Lower Thames- street was referee. After a false start they got away well together, and remained so to Southwark Bridge, where the stroke in the Allhallows crew slipped his stretcher. This allowed the Old Swan party to take a lead of a length, and although the All- hallows crew rowed a plucky stern wager, they could not alter the result, and the Old Swan crew went in the winners by two lengths. BRUNSWICK HOTEL ( BLACKWALL) v SHIP TAVEBN ( GBEEN- WICH).— A friendly match took place on Saturday, July 11, be- tween five gentlemen connected with the Ship Tavern, Greenwich, and five of the Brunswick Hotel, Blackwall, from Charlton Pier to the Dreadnought. The crews were as follows:— The Ship crew : F. W. Hobson, G. Tadhunter, H. Guerin, T. Blackbourn, H. M. Lovegrove ( cox), light blue, I. The Brunswick Crew: T. Morrison, R. W. Duncan, R. Clarke, J. Hooper. J. F. Glover ( cox), dark blue, 0. Dark Blue won the toss, and chose the north shore. They got away at the first attempt, and continued level for about a hundred yards, when Light Blue gradually drew away, and were a clear length ahead at the Anchor and Hope, which they had increased to three at Cory's coal depot, and six at the Brunswick Pier, where they eased, and eventually won by- two hundred yards. The winners rowed in the Lightning, built by Mr E. Wyld, of Lambeth. Time, 21min. WALTON- ON- THE- NAZE REGATTA.— The Vice- Commodore of the Royal Harwich Yacht Club ( Mr J. C. Morice, of the Marina) has presented a subscription to the committee for conducting this regatta, and has expresssed his determination to attend and bring down a number of his friends from London. After the regatta there is to be a ball at the Clifton Hotel. It was a matter of much regret that Lord Rendlesham, the Commodore of the Royal Har- wich, was unable to take part with his beautiful schooner- yacht the Egidia, in the cruise to Walton- on- the- Naze last week, but his lordship has promised a cup for competition at the Harwich Re- gatta on Wednesday. SOUTH LONDON ROWING CLUB.— At the quarterly meeting of this club, on Tuesday, July 14, entries were taken for a double scullers race, to be rowed in wherries, from Chelsea Railway Bridge to Lambeth Bridge, starting at half- past seven o'clock p. m. on Monday, July 20. The result of the ballot was as fol- lows:— Red ( I), Mr W. Ansell, W. Bellenie; white ( 2), W. F. Williams, C. G. Hobbs; blue ( 3), E. Gregory, J. Fairbrass; yel- low ( 4), W. Kinchen, J. Lee. The numbers denote the stations, counting from the Middlesex shore. Mr C. F. May was chosen referee. ROYAL HARWICH YACHT CLUB.— We did this club a slight in- justice last week. In the report of the opening cruise it was stated that prizes would be awarded at the approaching regatta to the extent of £ 157 10s, but it appears that the amount which figures in the programme actually exceeds 200 guineas. Thanks to the vigour and energy displayed, the Harwich Regatta bids fair to be the best celebrated on the eastern coast this year. THE IPSWICH LIFEBOAT — On Thursday, July 16, a meeting was held at the Town Hall, Ipswich, the mayor, Mr G. C. E. Bacon, presiding, for the purpose of presenting William Alexan- der, coxswain of the Ipswich lifeboat, with a medal of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution for his gallant services. The pro- ceedings, to which further reference may possibly be made next week, passed off in a very gratifying manner. CHILDS AND DIXON.— A match has been made between C. Childs of Limehouse and T. Dixon of Rotherhithe to row in old- fashioned boats from North Woolwich to Limehouse Hole, for £ 25 a side, on Monday, August 31. We have received £ 3 a side, and a similar deposit'is to be made at Mr Martin's, Royal Oak, Barking- road, July 20. YACHT MATCH IN NORFOLK.— A cup of the value of £- 30 will be given by Capt, Cholmondeley and others to be sailed for at Great Yarmouth, on Thursda}', July 30. The prize will be open to com- petition by river yachts of any rig, but they must be the property of gentlemen residing in Norfolk. KILSBY AND MAY.— For this match we have received a further sum of £ 5 a side, and the final deposit of £ 10 a side is to be sent July 23. G. Francis of Maidenhead Bridge will row any man of Eton or Windsor, for their own sums, from Putney to Mortlake or over ; exciting affair takes place on Monday, July 20, at th « cricket the Henley Regatta Course. An answer through Belts Life will ! grounds, Fair Fields, Kingston- on- Thames, We are pleased to hear that Cobley w ill be well supported by tile P. R. It will be a be attended to. T. Croutof Woolwich, hearing that J. Biffen of Hammersmith wishes to row hiin, will accommodate him if Biffen w ill stake £ 60 to £ 40, or £ 30 to £ 20. A deposit and articles left at Bell's Life will receive immediate attention. GAINSBOROUGH REGATTA.— A rowing regatta has been fixed to take place at Gainsborough on Friday, Aug 7. THE RING, FISTIANA ; OB, THE OBACLE OF THE RING.— Just published, the TWENTY- THIBD EDITION, with, an Appendix, containing the results of all the Prize Battles from 1700 to June, 1860; the Names of the Men, alphabetically arranged; the NEW RULES OF THE RING, as altered by the Pugilistic Association ; DUTIES OF UAI- PIBES AND REFEBEK ; HLNTS ON SPABBING ; of HEALTH IN GENERAL ; TBAINING ; and other matters interesting to those who desire athletic vigour. To be had of Mr William Clement, at the office of Bell's Life, 170, Strand, and of all booksellers in town and country. Price 2s 6d, or by post 2s 7d. THE £ 2,000 MATCH. TOM KING AND JACK HEENAN.— The ceremony of depositing another £ 50 note a side for this match took place on Thursday evening, July 16, at Mr Bacon's, Rose and Thistle, Londonderry- road, Camberwell, which, although not a sporting house in the strictest sense of the word, is still a rendezvous for many who like to know what goes on in the sporting world, and to enjoy their say on milling and other kindred subjects in a quiet way. As it had oozed out that both the big ones intended to be present, the curiosity of the neighbourhood was unusually excited, and Mr Bacon had a regular bumper attendance. The corianders on either side were forthcoming at the right time, and business being thus amicably settled, a chairman of the meeting was selected, and, as the company was not of that character in which much speculation is carried on, the assembly at once assumed the aspect of a harmonic meeting, and the evening was devoted to hospitality and friendly enjoyment. The next deposit of £ 50 a side is to be made at Nat Langham's, Mitre, Upper St Martin's- lane, on Thursday, July 30. THE CHAMPIONSHIP. JEM MACE AND RVALL.— For this affair we have as usual to record the receipt of £ 5 a side, and to request that each will for- ward us £ 5 on Friday next. FIGHT FOR TUESDAY. BBOWN OF MANCHESTER AND KELLY OF BRADFORD, £ 100 A SIDE.- We have received £ 20 as a final deposit from Brown, and £ 15 from Kelly for this match, which is £ 5 short on the part of the latter. This, however, is no fault of Kelly's, as the articles stipulate that the final deposit is to be £ 15 a side. This was an error on the part of the person who drew them up, and he will see, if he adds up the va- rious deposits, that there is £ 5 short. Kelly must make the £ 5 good before the fight to our Manchester correspondent. The men are to meet on Monday, July 20, at Tom Kelly's, Telegraph, Croft- street, Bradford, to toss for choice of place, and here the fixture may be ascertained, as well as at Mr Hardy's, Rising Sun, Swan- street, Manchester, where Brown takes up his quarters; and also at tlie Railway Tavern, Salford. FIGHT NEAR BRISTOL BETWEEN SWADDY REECE AND YOUNG MAHEB.— A game contest between these men came off'on Mondaj', July 13, at Keynsham. near Bristol, and although it was almost an impromptu match, ar. d for a small stake, considerable interest was manifested. Both men have figured in the arena before. Reece weighed nearly 9st, and Maher ( better known a short time back as Jem Mace's Novice) was about 7st 101b, a great disparity, but the latter stood higher than his opponent, and was in better condition. Shortly after eight o'clock, a referee having been chosen, the fight commenced, the betting being 6 to 4 on Reece. The lads fought 52 rounds, in which both were much punished, when a policeman appeared, and a move was rendered necessary. On resuming hostilities it was seen that Reece was much the gainer by the rest, and he at once took a decided lead, which he retained till a second Peeler appeared ( in the 63d round), and the referee appointed another place, which was, however, tabooed by a third apparition of Bobbies. The men then returned home, and it is said the referee named a place of meeting for the next day, where Reece attended, but Maher was not to be seen. The re- feree, therefore, awarded the money to Reece. The fight lasted altogether 80 minutes. JOE CIIUBCH AND G. HUTCHINS.— These men fought on Mon- day, July 13, on the Home Circuit, for £ 10, at catch weight. Hutchins was seconded by Alec Andrews and a friend, Church being looked after by J. Reeves and Johnny. There were eleven rounds, Church, who had the best of the light from the commence- ment, knocking his man out of time in the last, the battle having lasted 20 minutes. There was little or no science displayed, the combatants from the commencement rattling to work entirely on the give and take principle. Church, by the style in which he disposed of his man, has gained the good opinion of his friends. COLLINS ( ROOM'S NOVICE) AND ALFBED NEWTON OF THE POTTERIES.— These men met on Tuesday, at catch weight, for £ 20, at Holly- lane, some four miles from Walsall, but the authori- ties making their appearance a move was made to Sutton Wood, where a ring was pitched and a severe and well- contested fight of one hour and ten minutes and sixty- one rounds took place. In the first round Newton got well home with his right hand on the left jaw of the Novice, knocking him clean off his feet, and in the second round the Novice returned the compliment with his left heavily on the right eye of Newton, making an ugly wound. In the sixth round, Newton after some slight exchanges closed for the fall, and threw the Novice heavily, falling upon him. The Novice felt the effect, as he came up staggering for several rounds, and the betting veered round to 2 to 1 oil Newton ; but the Novice recovering himself led off in several rounds with good effect, but the repeated visitations of Newton's right on the left jaw sent him all abroad again, and although he kept gamely on, his friends, thinking he had no chance of winning, threw up the sponge in token of defeat. YOUNG GROGAN OF BIRMINGHAM AND MILLS OF NORTHAMP- TON.— These men met on Tuesday, July 14, to fight at 7st 81b, for £ 20. They scaled the day previous, and both came within their weight. They met at Bassett Pole, where they contended for 55 minutes and 23 rounds. Grogan in the second round, after some slight exchanges, gave Mills the back heel, throwing him heavily, and falling upon him, from the effects of which Mills's left shoulder was found to be hurt, and in the succeeding rounds his left mawley was useless ; but he gamely kept on, although his chance of winning was gone, and any odds were laid on Grogan. At the call of the 24th round the gentlemen in blue appeared, and the referee ordered the men to meet at the Clock at Bicknell the same afternoon, at three o'clock. Grogan put in an appearance, but Mills not showing the referee gave in against him, and de- clared Grogan to be entitled to the stakes. MORRIS AND DURKIN.— We have again had a letter from Lomas, the referee in this £ 5 fight, in which he awards the money to Morris, and denies having ever given any other decision. This being so, we shall send the stakes to Morris when he for- wards his address. H. ALLEN AND J. COYNE.—£ 8 10s a side is down for the match between these Birmingham men. A further deposit for the same must be made on Tuesday at Mat, Collinson's, Thatched House Tavern, Duddeston- row. Coyne is training under the vigilant eye of Rook, Whittington and Cat, Great Brook- street, where he will be glad to see his friends. BROOME AND WORMALD.— In reply to Wormald's challenge to fight at catch weight, for £ 50 a side, Young Broome begs to say that, he cannot fight for that sum, but if Wormald can be backed for £ 100 a side, Broome will confine himself to lljst, and Worrnald can be a ton if he likes, and he shall be accommodated. A deposit left at Bell's Life will be immediately covered. EVANS AND TYSON.— Evans ( Nuts) has left £ 2 103 to bind the match between himself and Young Tysen. If business be really meant, let Tyson meet Evans at J. Brown's on Wednesday, July 22, at the Two Brewers, Ewer- street, Gravel- lane, Southwark, to draw up articles, for £ 25 a side, open for £ 50, at catch weight. DOVE AND GALLAGHEB.— These men make their last deposit of £ 5 a side on the 22d at J. Brown's, Two Brewers, Ewer- street, Gravel- lane, when final arrangements will be made. Gallagher wishes those who promised to stand money with him to send it to Mr Lipman's, King of Prussia, Middlesex- street. SMITH AND MILNES.— The missing £ 5 for this match has at length turned up, having been mis- sent. Smith wishes the fight to come off in the same ring as Goss and Mace, but we doubt whether the two fights could come off on the same day. We are prepared to name another day if the men wish it. POTTS AND HANNIGAN.— The whole of the money for this match reached our hands, but owing to a mistake £ 5 had been ac- credited to another match. The stakes have been sent to Potts, at Mr Horncastle's, Royal Oak, Sheffield. HAWKES AND WELSH — We have received £ 2 103 from Hawkes and £ 2 fronv, Welsh for this match; tt » " final deposit is to be ma Je on Wednesday at Jemmy Welsh's, Griffin, Church- street, Bo- rough, when the fixture will be made known. DILLON AND 1' BAVEBS.— Another deposit of £ 10 a side is down for this match, for which each is to make good another tenner to us on Friday, July 24. HOLDEN AND LEAD.— These lads have again posted £ 2 10s a side in our hands. They are to stake £ 2 10s each on the 22d inst, at Jem Mace's, Old King John, Holy well- lane. COOPEB'S BIG ONE AND MABSDEN.— Marsden has again sent £ 2 10s for this match, and as Cooper sent £ 0 last week the money is at present square. Each must send us £ 2 10s by Friday, July 24. CRUTCHLEY AND ROSE.— We have received £ 2 from Bingey Rose for a match with Dan Crutchley, but no money has come to hand on behalf of Crutchley. BRICK LAD AND LYONS.— These lads will have to forward us £ 5 a side on Tuesday, July 21, for their match at 8st 81b, which comes off on Aug 5. GANNON AND BALDOCK.— These men having again staked £ 5 a side, are to repeat the performance on Wednesday, at Mr Richard- son's, Blue Anchor, Church- street, Bhoreditch. ROOK AND REARDON.— For this match we have again received £ 0 a side. Each is to send us another £ 5 on the 31st inst.

GRAND WESTERN MEETING AT WEYMOUTH. The meeting of the archers of the Western Counties— open to All England— which was held at Weymouth on Wednesday and Thursday last, and at which sixty- one ladies and sixty nine gen- tlemen entered the lists, was not only in itself a decided success, but in no respect inferior to the previous public meetings of the season, to which another fete is announced at the eleventh hour in the shape of a contest for silver cups and other prizes in the new Alexandra Park OH Thursday next. The Grand Western Meeting, which originated with the Archery Clubs in Wilts, Dorset, Somerset, Cornwall, and Devon, was held in 18( 31 at L^ unton, last year at Salisbury, and by the adoption of a sys- i of prizes and badges on a most attractive and inviting scale, - done much to stimulate the practice of archery in that part or3?< e country, in which there are no less than thirty- five clubs, many of them in a state of the greitest prosperity, and all of them liberally supported. Weymouth being full of company, there • was a largs attendance, and many of the best shots of the day contended for the awards contained in the general prize list. There were forty- nine local prizes, many of them of great value and exquisite workmanship. There were twelve pairs of targets for gentlemen, and the same number for ladies. The usual number of arrows were shot on each day both by ladies and gentlemen. The ground selected was about two miles from Weymouth, on the Dorchester turnpike road, and generally speaking was in capital order, and well kept throughout the meeting. The total number of prizes was 95, including two challenge prizes. One of these is a silver claret jug, which has been held for two years by Mr H. B. Hare, as the Champion of the West; and the other a silver quiver gained last year by Mrs A. A. Malet. On Wednesday the weather was nearly all the archers could wish for, excepting that at times a constant chasigeable • wind rendered hitting a little difficult, and that the sun at all times was oppressively hot. Taken as a whole, the shooting was not good, especially amongst the gentlemen. Mr Ford, with the exception of his 60 yards shooting, shot in the style to which he has of late accustomed himself. He was at the head of the list by 18 points only, Mr Coulson being second with 374, Mr Itimington third with 3U7, Capt Betham fourth with 333, Col Clowes fitth with 303. Capt Betham succeeded in getting three consecutive bullseyes at the 60 yards range. The best golds made during the day were:— At 100yards, Mr Holdsworth, Mr Hare, and Mr Rickards ; at 80 yards, Mr Hare, Mr Coventry, Mr Melhuisli, and Mr Hicks; at 60 yards, Col Clowes, two golds, one decidedly the best made throughout the day. The ladies had the best of it this time decidedly, Miss L. Turner heading the list with a good score of 281, closely followed by Miss S. Dawson with 268. The next two ladies were Mrs Lambert and Miss Eastwood, who tied with ascoreof 285, followed closely by Mrs Glazbrook with 219, Miss M. Dawson being sixth with 192. The best golds at the 60 yards shooting were those made by Miss Dawson and Miss Car- nac, and at 50 yards those by Miss Dawson and Miss Stancombe. On Thursday there was a stronger wind than on the previous day.

MR EDITOR : In your columns of Saturday, July 11, there ap- peared an account of some racket matches at the Oxford and Cam- bridge courts, which I think should not pass unnoticed, as it may lead to false impressions. From the terms in which that account was written the public in general would think that the players engaged were the first in England, not only in the open court but at rackets generally. The play ers of matches at the Oxford and Cambridge and the Belvedere courts seem to think themselves the only real players, and with weekly increasing audacity call the cup for which there is a match fixed the Champion Racket Cup, and hot the Open Court Champion Cup, as though they wish to Ignore the close court players altogether. These gentlemen seem to forget that there are such players as W. H. Dyke, Esq, of Prince's Club ; — Pereira, Esq, of Birmingham, not to mention F. Erwood, Arnold of Oxford, Biggs of Torquay, and the brothers Gray, of whom I have heard that the elder has been for the last six months open to play any man in England. They seem to forget, in their admiration of the Belvedere, & c, courts, the seven splendid courts there are at Prince's Clubs, and the first class courts at Oxford, Cambridge, Bristol, and many other towns. As for the open courts I do not mean to disparage them, but they are not by any means the head- quarters of the game, and it does seem to me most unfair that such players should be allowed to push themselves before the public as the first players of England, without having any claim to such a title ; and, moreover. it is well known how these same men pretend to make matches against the world and present cups, and then for some reason or other invariably throw- ing them up. If they do consider themselves the" leading players" of the day let them challenge any man on fair terms ; but let them at least be accurate, and not speak of open court matches and players as the champion matches and players of England. Apologising for intruding so much on your valuable spaoe, yours, & c, X. Lfc H.- U1, July 14. H* 4 HARROW SCHOOL.— Dear Bell: Permit me, at a time when public notice is drawn towards the match between Harrow and Eton, to call your attention to a kindred subject. When I was at Harrow the game of rackets was almost as popular as cricket; the courts were engaged before first school for the whole day, and the consequence was that such players as Dyke, Monro, Ainslie, R D. Walker, Sainsbury, Kennard, and many others were turned out, and that in the matches between Oxford and Cambridge Harrow men have lately been selected to represent their universities. But now, I am sorry to say, " Tempora mu- tanturand from all I hear Harrow boys " mutantur in iliis." The racket courts are in a disgraceful state, the game is unfashion- able, arid you know how fatal that is to a school game. Now, unless some effort is shortly made, the old Harrow prestige will be lost I think that this falling off in a school which has produced the Backet Champion of England, and has been so celebrated for its proficiency at that most manly game, is much to be regretted. I should be much obliged if you, who are always desirous of pro- mating athletic exercises, would insert this, as I think that a hint, even from my humble pen, will not pass disregarded by present Harrovians.— Yours, & c, OLD HARROVIAN.— The Temple, July 12 WRESTLING.— J- Mangle of Burnley will wrestle J.

FEDESTRIANISM AT HACKNEY WICK. THOMAS AND MYERS.— On Monday, July 13, there was a capital attendance of the metropolitans on J. Baum's ground, to witness the seven miles walk between these men, for £ 10 a side, Thomas receiving half a minute start. VV. Hatley ( the pedestrian) was chosen referee, and all the preparatory matters being ad- justed, the competitors came to the starting mark. The odds were 5 to4 on Thomas, but there was not much money speculated. Thomas, who put on a rattling spurt, covered about 130 yards in the given time, and when M> ers received the signal to go he dashed off in pursuit of his opponent in admirable style. Myers had no sooner commenced the struggle than he displayed such a fine turn of speed that he began to diminish the gap be- tween them in a decided manner. When the first mile ( 7min 15sec) had been accomplished ho had gained fully 60 or 70 yards on his competitor, and on the termination of the second mile ( 15minl5sec) had still further so much improved his position as to be close on his opponent. There could be no disputing the fact of Myers having " pulled in" on his man thus early in the struggle was calculated to inspire his admirers with the most sanguine confidence as to the result, and from the commanding style in which he had recovered the distance Thomas had suc- ceeded in placing between them in the given time, his partisans fully expected he was certain in the end to obtain an ea- y victory. Myers, however, with such a fine, dashing competitor to the fore as Thomas, had not been able to " prove the pace" and achieve so much without making a tremendous effort, while his opponent, on the other hand, was enabled to ease himself slightly occa- sionally. The advantage of this was particularly noticeable as the pedestrians went dashing along in the third mile. Myers, thinking he had the trump card in hand, made strenuous efforts to come to the front, but could not suc- ceed, fur, as he spurted, Thomas in a most decided manner like- wise put on the high pressure, and darted from bim. The match during the third mile ( 22min 55sec) was admirably sustained, and when they went by the goal for the commencement of the fourth mile Thomas still had the advantage of the lead, although so well was Myers up in the rear, that at most there was not more than a yard or two between them. No sooner had the men fairly entered upon the fourth mile than Myers, putting on a tine spurt, passed his man and assumed the lead. His friends imagined that by this decided manifestation of his superiority he had now the match secure. They were, however, soon to be undeceived, for ere another lap had been completed, Thomas had again gone to the front. On the completion of this portion of the distance, the four miles being fairly accomplished, in 32min 20sec, Thomas had once more fallen in the rear. During the performance of the fifth mile ( 40min 35sec) there were several changes in the positions of the men, but when the sixth mile commenced it was apparent Myers was destined to be defeated. This pedestrian had been, while walking the latter part of the fifth mile, seized with the " stitch," and this became so painful that it prevented him from continuing the struggle. Myers, who at every stride was now falling more and more in the rear, went on until five miles and a half had been accomplished, when he pulled up, and left Thomas in undisputed possession of the course, but he did not walk the remainder of the distance quite out, as the backer of Myers stopped him from doing so. PEDESTRIANISM AT BOW- HALL AND FORBES.— These pedestrians met on C. Wilson's enclosed ground, the Olympia, Bow, on Saturday, July 11, to run one mile for £ 5 a side, there being present a strong muster of the partisans of the men. The competitors had to run three laps and 130 yards to complete the distance, and Jacques the pedestrian acted as referee. The betting was level, but there was little or no money speculated. The men got off on the most even terms, and ran so well together that on going by for the finish of the tirst lap they were not more than a couple of yards asunder. While contesting the second round Hall, who was just to the fore, put on a fine spurt, and tried to get well away from his compe- titor. Forbes, however, was not to be disposed of in any such easy style, for he maintained his position so well, that again on going by the goal for the second time the pedestrians were so close together that they might have been fairly covered with a handkerchief. They had now entered upon the third and last lap, and thestruggle between them became extremely interesting. As, however, they drew near the finish, Forbes gave unmistakable symptoms of being in distress, and having been run completely out, he pulled up and resigned within a short distance of the goal, so that Hail went in an easy winner, the race having been splen- didly contested until within 100 yards of the " post," when Forbes was finally beaten off. RICHARDSON AND WRIGHT.— On Monday, July 13, these pe- destrians attended here to walk four miles, for £ 5 a side, there again being a good attendance of the Metropslitans. J. Pudney, the M. C., acted as referee. The men went away in excellent style, and the match, on the part of both, was splendidly contested. During the tirst, second, and third miles there were several varia- tions in the position of the competitors, the lead being now in favour of one and then the other. In this close and exciting manner they continued to rattle along until walking the last lap, when Richardson finally took the lead, went away from his man, and landed a winner by five yards, the four miles being covered in 33min 30sec. PEDESTRIANISM AT WANDSWORTH. CUTTS AND WREN.— There was a good attendance here on Sa- turday, July 11, to witness the three miles walk by these men, for £ 5 a side. Wren being allowed one minute. The betting was 6 to 4 on Cutts, and for quite a minor affair, there was a good deal of money speculated on the result. The pedestrians had to make the circuit of the eourse twelve times, and when the umpires and referee had been selected they came to the mark. Wren in the given time covered about 220 yards, so that he was fully half a lap in advance when Cutts received the signal to start. He neverthe- less went away at a rattling pace, and so gained on his man, that when two miles and a half had been completed, he had obtained the lead. Although Wren had thus been passed, still, like a game lad, he stuck well to his work, and throughout the remainder of the distance followed so well up in the rear, that Cutts did not go in a winner by more than two or three yards, the three miles being accomplished in 26min lOsec.

CRICKETERS' REGISTER. ETON v HARROW. Never was such a scene witnessed at Lord's as on Friday, July 10, when this match was commenced. Carriages, five or six deep, all round the ground; and, besides that, aringof some 8,000 spectators. It is no use trying to describe it; it is impossible, and the absent can only be pitied. The ground was in most excellent con- dition, and much credit is on that account due to Mr Dark, who has evidently been most active of late in endeavouring t « put every- thing straight on that score. The Etonians won the toss, and sent in Pepys and Tritton to the bowling of Burnett and Richardson, the former a medium fast bowler and the latter fast. Although we have been applied to for the analysis of the bowling— through the proprietor— we were refused a place in front of the scorers. We have, notwithstanding, managed to procure that valuable information, which we publish in our next; but we really think a little more accommodation might be managed for those who have to supply accounts to the public. The wickets were good, and tfee " young" umpires— the veterans being left out— having arranged the wickets, play commenced at eleven o'clock, and in the third over of Mr Richardson' sMr Pepys was caught at short leg. Thus the first wicket went down for 6 runs. We may add that the betting was in favour of Eton, but no odds could be got either way. Harrow men, especially, were anxious to get a trifle on. Mr Frederick joined Mr Trittor,, and they got a good hold, the former peppering by steam. He will certainly be a Gentleman of England player. Having contributed 31, and brought on Mire- house, Maitland, and Phipps ( with his partner, Mr Tritton), he was bowled by the latter bowler. They both exhibited a fine display of cricket, which was acknowledged not only by the old- ' uns— who are the judges— but by shouts of " Well hit!" from his companions. Mr Tritton saw six wickets go away, viz, Pepys, first, for 6; Frederick, second, for 77; Prideaux, the third, for 81; A. Lubbock, the fourth, for 93; the Hon N. Lyttelton, the fifth, for 94; and the sixth, Mr Sutherland, for 135. Mr Tritton then ran out— his own fault— having contributed a brilliant in nings of 91. His figures— which with difficulty were taken— comprised a five ( cut from Mirehouse), three fours ( two drives from Phipps and one from Burnett), four threes, twenty twos, and the remainder in singles. His, the seventh wicket, went for 146 runs, and he returned to the pavilion amidst immense cheering. We have nothing particularly to mention in this innings except the Hon 8. Lyttelton— another bright star of the family. He was quite at home until the captain " held tight" the piece of leather. At a quarter past two o'clock 184 was tele- graphed as the sum total; and " good,'' says Eton. Harrow com- menced and sent in Hornby and Mirehouse to the wickets, to the bowling of Pelham ( medium) and Sutherland ( a fair pace). Twenty runs were scored, when the latter batsman was caught in the slip. Mr Grimston ( who, we understand, was likely to have been left out!) caused a total of 45 to be mounted. He is another Gentlemen of England player, and was only got rid of by being caught at the wicket. His figures were two fours ( drive and a cut), four threes ( three drives and a cut), two twos, See; two for 115. The last ball on the Friday evening stopped Mr Buller's career, he having hit the ball on, for a score of 37, composed of a six ( square le^- hit from Frederick), a four ( drive), a three, four twos, & c. Three wickets were then down for 176 runs, when the stumps were drawn, Mr Hornby being still in, and playing cricket in Mr Sandford's Rugby style; he had got 66. On SATURDAY lie only scored two more, when a " well paced " one from Sutherland scattered his timber. The Liverpool gentlemen may be justly proud of such a genuine bat, and we fancy they may thank Dawes and Bell for their attention during the season; his figures comprised a six ( drive), but from whom our unenviable position would not allow us to see. Three wickets had now fallen for 176 runs— a rare good thing for Eton. Ten thousand specta- tors were on the ground, and about 800 carriages of all descrip- tions. It was truly a magnificent sight. We may sum up by stating that the Eton Eleven were got rid of for a total of 266, or 82 on. We ought, however, to notice the excellent innings of Messrs Maitland, Burnett, and I. D. Walker, who distinguished them- selves in a manner that will probably cost them many an hour at Lord's and at the Oval. We need scarcely add that the match was a drawn one, making the third that has been drawn between them, and we trust that future management will prevent its re- currence, and that the old school matches will be revived in their integrity, and at their former season. We subjoin the whole ot the matches that have been played since 1805. The analysis will appear in our next. 1st 2d DATE. SIDES. inn. inn.

JULY 13.— This contest was commenced at the Royal Brunswick Ground on Monday, July 13. The wickets, as usual, were faultless, and a great many runs were consequently anticipated. There was a smart breeze, but nothing to make any material difference either to bat or bowler. On thepart of Sussex, Mr E. B. Fawcett played in the room of Stubberfield, who, we regret to say, met with an accident to his arm while bowling at practice. The play com- menced shortly after twelve o'clock. Surrey won the toss, and Mr Miller quickly made his list out, and sent Mortlock and Humphrey to the wickets, to the bowling of Young Lilly and Ellis ( slows), Wells taking the wicket during his bowling. Mort- lock played a good hitting innings off the slows; his figures were three twos and singles, principally drives, off' the slows. The first wicket fell for 17 runs. Griffith joined Humphrey, and rat- tled on at a fine pace until 50 was reached, when Ellis made a splendid catch off his own bowling, travelling rather fast; he played a careful innings of 15, composed of two threes ( drives from each bowler), two twos ( drive and a cut), and singles. Caffyn followed, and soon made a splendid leg- liit from Ellis for a five; in fact, they both played and went in well to the " slows.'' These two, when they had increased the score to 77, caused Wisden to be put on at Ellis's end; " 80 up." Mr Fawcett was substituted for Lilly white, off whose third ball Griffith drove for four— a splendid hit to the dining hut — followed by several four hits, no less than four fours having been obtained off' Mr Fawcett's three overs, which compelled the managers to substitute Southerton, and in his first over 6 runs were got. Wisden was also hit about, and Ellis was again put on at Wisden's end. The hitting still was terrific in the extreme, no less than 152 runs having been got in two hours! At this period of the game Caffyn drove the ball back to Ellis, he having put together 31 by the following large- sized figures:— A five, three fours ( two cuts and a leg hit), a three ( leg), a two, and singles. Mr Burbidge followed, when Griffith was immediately caught at cover point, running in at the slows. In one hour and five minutes he scored 89 runs!— something miraculous. His figures were seven fours ( all over the place), six threes ( same), eight twos, and singles; he was loudly applauded upon leaving the wicket; four tor 153. Mr Dowson then came, and Ellis tossed a ball over his and wicket- keeper's head, and being out of reach, four wides were consequently called, and Mr Burbidge was then caught in the slip, which made five wickets down for 168 runs. Lockyer followed, and played the slows rather slow, and eventually drove the ball back to Ellis, making 22 by two fours, a a three, and singles. Stephenson and Sewell were then com- panions; the latter commenced with a drive for five from Lilly- white, and having mad ' a leg hit for two, was caught at point, which made eight wickets down for 220 runs, Caesar came next, and was evidently still suffering from lameness, and was soon caught by giving a " skyer" to the slow bowler, the total then being 228. Mr Miller, the last man, joined Stephenson, and made a splendid off drive from Lilly white for five, when Csesarwas bowled by the slows, Mr Miller bringing out his bat. The in- nings terminated at 4: 25, for 234. Sussex lost no time in sending in their captain, Mr Hall, and John Lilly white, to the bowling of Caffyn and Griffith. The batsmen played very steadily to the first- rate bowling and fielding of Surrey. Mr Hall was caught by middleman in the slips when he had accomplished 11, by two twos and singles ; thus the first wicket fell for 19 runs. Mr Smith joined John Lilly white, and a fine display of cricket ensued. Lilly's play was masterly, the bowling of Surrey being quite up to the mark, as was also the fielding. Lilly white's off and on driving was brilliant, so much so that it was thought desirable to put on Stephenson in the room of Caffyn, although bowling well. Mortlock shortly afterwards took to slow bowling at Griffith's end, the total being 81 for one wicket. They still proceeded until 100 was telegraphed amidst cheers, when, at 108, Mr Mil- ler took the ball at Mortlock's end, and bowled two maiden overs, and almost three. The stumps were drawn at seven ; total 115, for the loss of one wicket. On TUESDAY, July 14 ( 11: 45), Lillywhite and Mr Smith re- sumed their places, to the bowling of Mr Miller and Ste- phenson. Mr Smith made two cuts off Mr Miller's first two balls. Lilly made a leg- hit from Stephenson for three. The play went on steadily for the purpose of getting sight, and it caused Sewell to be put on at Stephenson's end— total 138. It was now time for John Lillywhite to go, having " teased" Surrey quite enough; he was caught by a " snick" at the wicket, having played, it was universally acknowledged, one of the best innings of his whole career. His figures were six fours ( four drives and two leg- hits), five threes ( drives), thirteen twos ( one a square leg- hit, which was nearly hit out of the ground, but hit the wall, and rebounded back nearly to the wickets, and had it gone over would have been six) ; the rest were in singles. Wells fol- lowed, but was immediately caught at point for a " duck's egg;'' three wickets down for 14- 5 runs. Ellis then made his appear- ance, and commenced in his usual free style of play. The score reached 156, when Mr Snath played the ball on his wicket. This gentleman, whose play we have before commented upon, played a brilliant innings of 42, composed of a three ( an excellent cut from Miller), seven twos, and singles, all secured by good cricket. He brought on Sewell, who managed to disturb the timber he was de- fending; thus four wickets fell for 156 runs. Ellis and Southerton then became companions, and kept their ground against the ex- cellent bowling of Mr Miller and Sewell; Mortlock's slows, how- ever, were substituted for Mr Miller's " medium dodges.'' Sewell here took Southerton's bails; thus the fifth wicket went down for 188 runs. Southerton played well and steadily, making a three, a two, and singles. Mr Hodson joined Ellis, and immediately made a fine cut for four from Sewell. They continued run- getting until 200 was telegraphed, amidst cheers. 210 was shortly after- wards put up, and when at 215 Caffyn was put on at Sewell's end. Mr Miller again went on— Mortlock s end— and the required 234 runs were here accomplished. It was now that Sussex started to " set," having lost only five wickets. Humphrey took the ball at Caffyn's end, and Mr Hodson very politely sent the ball out of the ground from him— a square leg- hit for six— amidst immense cheering. He followed it up the next over by doing the same, with renewed cheering. The dinner bell here rang, which gave them time to find the ball, among some acres of wheat. Lockyer went on alter the repast at Mr Miller's end, Griffith at the wicket, which position he had held several overs previously, owing to Lockyer hurting his hand; he, however, managed to get Mr Hodson caught at mid- wicket off, afterplaying a brilliant innings of 44, composed of two sixes! one four ( cut), a three ( cut), seven twos, & c ; six wickets had now fallen for 282 runs. Sew ell then went on at Humphrey's end. It was now Ellis's lot to be caught at long- leg, Caffyn rolling over to accomplish this task ; he was immediately called to the private marquee, and presented with the talent money. His most brilliant innings comprised four fours ( three drives and a leg- hit), nine threes ( all drives), eight twos, and singles; seven wickets down for 287 runs. Mr E. B. Fawcett came, and Wisden made a pretty draw for four. Mr Faw- cett having soon made two fours and two singles, he was cleanly bowled by Sewell, and thus eight wickets fell for 306 runs. Fil- lery took his place, and the first ball he was rightly given out leg before wicket, which made room for young Lilly white, who, with Wisden, brought Mr Miller on at Lockyer's end, and Stephenson at Sewell's; then Mortlock at Mr Miller's, and afterwards Griffith at Mortlock's end, and Caff'yn at Stephenson's, and eventually Caffyn just managed to catch Wisden ( with his right hand, close to the ground). These two increased the score from 308 to 369, Wisden playing one of his old Brighton innings, com- posed of four fours ( a draw, leg hit, aud two drives), two threes ( cut and a drive), five twos, & c. Young Lillywhite brought out his bat for a well- played 27, the highest he has yet scored for the county ; his figures were two fours ( drives from Mortlock and Griffith), a three ( drive), four twos, & c. The innings terminated at a quarter past five o'clock for 369 runs, having a majority of 135 over their opponents. Surrey, in their second innings, sent in Mortlock and Humphrey, to the bowling of Jas. Lilly white and Ellis. The first ( Mortlock) went for 3 runs; Humphrey was " nailed'' in the same way; two for 10. The third ( Caffyn's) was splendidly caught, mid off, by Mr Hale, whose fielding during this match was vastly different from that against Kent: in both in- nings on this occasion he fielded splendidly ; the third wicket went for 18. Stephenson, the fourth wicket, with Mr Burbidge, fell for 65 ; he made a leg hit from Lilly for four, the remainder were made by a two and singles. Messrs Burbidge and Dowson held possession of the wickets until the stumps were drawn— total 88, for the loss of four wickets Betting : 6 to 4 on Sussex. A much larger company assembled on the ground than there has been seen for many years. WEDNESDAY the two gentlemen resumed their places, and in Ellis's second over Mr Dowson drove the ball back ; thus five wickets fell for 90 runs. Griffith followed, and with Mr Burbidge played another Surrey " up- hill" game. The bowling was fre- quently changed, but to no purpose; they were determined to make up for the loss of the last five wickets, and when Mr Bur- bidge's off stump was removed the total amounted to 177 ! or 42 on for six wickets down. Mr Burbidge did not retire until he had reached three figures, and his manner of obtaining theui was a perfect treat. The bowling of young Lillywhite was admirable, but the level surface of the ground made it comparatively easy to play. Mr Burbidge was presented with a new bat by Mr Stent, the hon sec of the Sussex County Club, on behalf of the com- mittee. His figures were a five ( drive from Lillywhite), nine fours ( principally drives), three threes, thirteen twos, & o, which finished one of the finest innings ever seen. Lockyer took his place, and was splendidly caught long mid- off by Southerton ; seven wickets down for 189 runs. Mr Miller followed, and com- menced in earnest, and they were not separated until the scorers had put down a total ot 301! and perhaps dinner intervening pre- vented it from being more, for he was caught at point the second ball after. Heplayeda very excellent and spirited inningsof 40, com- posed of three fours ( drives), two threes ( drives), six twos, and sin- gles; Griffith at the same time was hitting the ball to every part of the field, in amost brilliant manner. Theslowsof Ellis were fearfully punished. Sewell joined him, and the total was increased to 346, when Ellis made a magnificent catch in getting rid of the " 142 man." He gave some chances, which might be expected in an innings which comprised thirteen fours ( eight drives, three cuts, and two leg hits), four threes ( drives), thirteen twos, and singles. He was called by the hon sec, and presented, as in the first inn- ings, with the " talent money," amidst immense cheering. Caesar then came, as the last man, and with Sewell caused the grand total to amount to 383, when Caesar gave a " skyer," which the wicket keeper very easily caught. The innings was concluded at a quarter to five o'clock, putting 8ussex in 249 to win ! The con- test, therefore, may be said to be an extraordinary one, for at one time 5 and 6 to 1 was offered on Sussex, and at this period of the game much longer odds were offered on Surrey, as there was no chance of the runs being got off in the short two hours' play that was to be allowed. Ca; sar, considering he was lame, stucg well to his work; his figures were two fours Cle hits), a three ( drive), two twos, and singles. Sewelf played an excellent not out innings of 36, composed o a five ( overthrow), a four ( drive from the slows), a three, five twos, and singles. Shortly after five o'clock Sussex sent in Messrs Hale and Smith. Eleven overs were delivered between Sewell and Griffith, when the former made a cannon from the leg to the stumps, and thus the first wicket went down for 19 runs. Mr Hale was afterwards caught by the middle slip; he made 20 by a four ( cut. from Sewell), a three ( drive from Griffith), a two, and singles ; two wickets down for 22 runs. Wells joined Young Lillywhite, and after contributing 12, in which was a six ( lucky one), he was well caught at mid- wicket off— total 48. Mr Hod- son followed, and Lilly hit the ball on the wicket, playing a good innings of 16, composed of a three ( drive from Griffith), two twos, and singles. His ( the fourth) wicket, fell for 59. The loss of the fifth wicket may be attributed to Mr Hodson running Fillery out, but probably he made up for it in his fielding. Five wickets down for 60 runs. Mr Hodson, however, played a manly game for 22, when a " popper" got rid of him, being caught in the slip, and the stumps were then drawn, as was also the match, as will be seen, in favour of Surrey. The weather was lovely through- out. and the only fault we can allude to is, that on such good wickets more hours were not devoted to play.

This match was commenced at the Oval on Thursday, July 9, and it will be seen that Surrey was lowered for the remark- ably small number of 34. They were once got out for 38, at Brighton, and yet won the match. The match was brought to a conclusion on Saturday week in favour of the Free Foresters, by five wickets. Score: FREE FORESTERS. W.

This return match was commenced on the Trent Bridge Ground, Nottingham, on Thursday, July 9. The weather was most brilliant, and the wickets good, as they always are on this ground. It will be noticed that there were two changes in the players composing each eleven, viz, for Yorkshire: Mr Ashley Walker and Hall of Bradford, the former in the place of Mr B. Waud, who could not possibly be spared from other important business, and the latter in the place of Atkinson, who faithfully promised to play, but did not put in an appearance. This conduct on his part is not, we shonld imagine, such as will raise him in the estimation of his friends, and it was, we take the liberty of saying, condemned by every one who was made acquainted with the circumstances of the case. For Nottinghamshire the changes were Brampton and Bignall f. « r Mr Howsin and Smith. The toss was won by Anderson for Yorkshire, and they, as a matter of course, accepted first innings. The score altogether amounted to 243, Anderson heading it with 82, without anything that could be fairly called a chance, and was bowled off his legs by Grundy. Edward Stephenson contributed a good 32; Rowbotham, Iddison, Thewlis, Hodgson ( not out), and Mr Walker, all adding their double figures by very good cricket. The bowlers were, in the first instance, Wootton and Jackson, and these were several times ehanged for Grundy and Tinley. The innings closed a little after five o clock, and Nottinghamshire then took the bat, and kept their wickets up to the close of the day's play, Brampton and C. Daft playing most carefully the good and straight bowling of Hodgson and Slinn. Play was resumed on Saturday, and it will be seen the match terminated in favour of Notts by 6 runs— a victory which they are highly proud of. Grundy was highly complimented by the gentlemen of Nottingham ; in fact he was presented with a handsome donation. A deal of money changed hands, and we regret that we have not, room for further details of the game. We subjoin the score and analysis:— YORKSHIRE. lst inn 2d inn J.

This return match was played at Shugborough on Monday, July 6, and was decided in favour of Lichfield by 12 runs on the first innings. On the part of Lichfield the batting of Hinchliffe, F. W. Vernon, Haynes, and Duckers, was much admired, and the bowling of A. L. Vernon and F. W. Vernon first class. For Shug- borougti A. Trubshaw, Masfen, and Joyce, batted wi ll; the bowling of C. Trubshaw in the first innings was very effective, but in the second innings it was severely punished The fielding on both sides was very good, as will be seen by the score. The day was beautifully fine, and its pleasures were greatly enhanced by the performance of the band of the lst King's Own Staffordshire Militia, which was on the ground.

For Cheam Messrs Vernon and Rose played well and carefully on most difficult wickets, and Gadesden made a fine hit for four, when that number was just wanting to " tie.''

DEAR BELL : In justice to Carpenter, Hayward, and Tarrant, I would say that I consider their reasons for not playing for their county at the Oval valid :— 1. That our strength would not nearly be represented. 2. That, owing to want of funds, we could play no return match. The cricket schism— begun in the matter of the captaincy of the late Australian team ( P), and fostered by the overweening aspirations of Surrey— seems to me to have vented its odium upon our three cracks, for whom in the papers there is plenty of abuse, but a scanty dolet of praise. Give every man a hearing, and— not the devil his, but— the best players their due.— Yours, & c, ARUNDO CAMI. t Vide the account of Haywards 112* v Gentlemen, and of Tarrant's bowling v Kent in Bell's Life. 8 BELL'S LIFE IN LONDON, JULY 19, 1863.

Just before nearing t h e last t u r n , Princet and Guili a u m e were close together. Unfortunately a sad accident deprived t h e race of any further interest. By some grievous neglect the steeple chase course, which turn? off the flat course a t this point, h a d not been roped in, and Princet, having the rails, was obliged t o pull out a little, but the horse not seeing t h e rope in front of him, kept on, and P r a t t deliberately rode h im at the cords, to t ry and avoid an enormous post that had been put u p to mark the course, and very n a t u r a l l y both horse and rider, particularly the l a t t e r , had a severe shaking. At the same spot Mr Wheelwright last year had a severe fall, and notwithstanding this, t h e comm i t t e e persisted in retaining this obnoxious turn. After the accident Guillaume had everything his own way, and won, hard held, by two l e n g t h s ; bad third. But for t h i s accident, this would have been t h e best race of the meeting, a n d it is to be hoped next year t h i s turn will be remedied. A SELLING STEEPLE CHASE of l.

Eoundhill came on with the lead to t h e brook, where Redwing, who was going very well, fell very heavily, severely shaking Marson, who was picked up, and carr i e d into t h e Stand. Gceulsin about half a minute a f t e r got over t h e bank, and he also gave Cassidy a cropper at t h e brook, which r e a l l y wanted a lot of j u m p i n g ; he was quickly remounted, and started in pursuit of Roundhill, who was at least a mile in front. Goeulsin refused again at the, wall, and came in about two minutes a f t e r Roundhill had passed the winning chair, most leisurely. E o u n d h i l l was ridden with great care a n d judgment by Stamford.

BRUGES RACES. DEAR BELL; You will see t h a t we have been obliged to postpone our races for a week, in consequence of Lille and Roubaix having inadvertently taken our days, and as both these towns can afford to f u r n i s h h i g h e r prizes we t h o u g h t it prudent to surrender w i t h a good grace, with the hope t h a t , as we hear t h e r e a r e five or s i x horses coming f r om England to run at Roubaix, some of them a t least will pay us a visit before they recross the water, for t h o u g h our prizes are meagre, the ground is beautiful, a n d the only Turf in Belgium ; and the course being oblong ( about 3,000 metres), there is on each side half a mile of straight running, a n d t h e fences perfectly fair and practicable. The 23d a n d 25th of August are now t h e days, and on t h e 24th there is to be a grand Military Carrousel, which will be r e a l ly worth seeing.— Yours, & c, Bruges, J u l y 12, 1863. AN OLD SPORTSMAN. INTELLIGENCE EXTRA. THE HAMBURG MEETING. FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) The burghers of this opulent and flourishing city have j u s t held t h e i r annual festival; it is one of the oldest meetings on t h e cont i n e n t , having been in existence for upwards of twenty years. Nor does it give a n y appearance of dying out for want of supp o r t , as the number of spectators that flock to the course can q u i t e vie with our own Epsom on a Derby day. Kacing has almost become a national sport in Germany, and t h e continent can almost compete with ourselves in t h e number of their meetings, and t h e value of their stakes. The meeting t h i s year at Hamburg was as successful as ever; indeed, when| such rich prizes are offered good fields are sure to be attracted, and thomgh t h e racing itself was not of the first- class order, still it must be reckoned far above t h e average of the foreign meetings. John Scott sent two horses over to represent Malton, one of which, Giles t h e First, managed t o win twice, but beyond these two all the other animals present were trained in t h e neighbouring states. One of the best races of t h e meeting was on Saturday, the first day ; the Hamburg Club Btakes only brougt six horses to t h e post.,' but there was a most splendid race between three, resulting finally in a dead heat between Pauline and Perhaps, Mariner being only a head distant. This l a t t e r is a f a r f r om bad looking two year old, a n d one that i s likely to b r i n g himself more prominently into notice on some f u t u r e occasisn. The remainder of the races on Saturday and Sunday can scarcely call for any special notice, but on Monday, which was considered the great day, the running was very good. The starting was abominable; they seem to have less method than even ourselves. The first race of the day, brought out a great favourite in Count Renard's Grimston, not a bad looki n g son of Stockwell. who was backed at evens against the field, but t h e pot was upset by Aldcroft on Giles the First, having come over especially for t h i s race, who, waiting u n t i l the last, came w i th one of his usual b r i l l i a n t rushes, and just won by a neck. The steeple chase excited more interest t h a n any of the other races. It was a capital course, with obstacles enough to make many a good man across country t h i n k twice were he not quite sure of the animal under him. The manner in which Her Brodemann rode 8t Mark must not be passed over without special notice; it was throughout a magnificent piece of jockeyship; though the Germans as a r u l e are very good riders, especially across country, t h i s gentleman's riding could never be surpassed either at home or abroad by professional or amateur. St Mark was originally bred by Mr Groves, a large Yorkshire farmer, who was present at the meeting, having brought over Hobbie Noble for the Agricultural Show, and he must have been well pleased to see h i s old favourite handled in such an a r t i s t i c manner. As a course, t h a t of Hamburg is a f a i r one, reminding one in its shape somethingof Chester; t h e b u r g h e r s h o p e t o i m p r o v e i t s shape i n some few years, but at present some difficulty exists in t h e i r not b e i n g able to obtain possession of the ground. The enclosures are large and convenient, situate on t h e opposite side of t h e course t o t h e Grand Stand, which, stretching along for about five hund r e d yards, filled with t h e fair sex dressed in every colour, presents t h e appearance at a little distance more of a show of flowers t h a n of human beings. That t h e sport is popular t h e receipts of t h e course will show, as t h e average daily number of visitors is estimated at not less t h a n 50,000. COURSING INTELLIGENCE.

DAISY AND POTATO BOB.— We have received the following l e t t e r :— TO THE EDITOR OF BELL'S LIFE IN LONDON. SIR: I n reference to the late t r o t t i n g match between Daisy and my pony, the decision of the referee, and t h e consequent withholding t h e stakes, I feel myself called upon to make t h e following communication to you, having no doubt that, upon the production of evidence satisfactory and confirmatory, you will be induced to hand the stakes to me as t h e winner of them. I have always been led to believe that t h e decision of a referee, given by h im at t h e t i m e and oil t h e ground, is final and binding. If such be the case, 1 have t h e evidence of gentlemen of t h e highest standing and position in Birmingham and Derby that Mr C. Wheeler distinctly and unhesitatingly pronounced his decision in favour of my pony at the time, on t h e ground, and immediately after t he termination of t h e affair. And in confirmation of t h i s fact lie requested Mr Aspury Ansell to telegraph for h im the result to his house, which Mr Ansell did. That he was also aware of Mr Ansell being about to lay a wager that t h e stokes would be paid to me, is a f u r t h e r proof that he believed he had given a fair and proper decision, otherwise he would have prevented Mr Ansell f r om laying a bet which he knew of necessity he must lose; but if any f u r t h e r proof of his having given t h e decision named be wanting it can be supplied f r om t h e testimony of gentlemen before whom he has, since t h e termination of t h e match, admitted that he gave his decision in favour of m y pony. This evidence, in any shape you may consider necessary, I am in a position to l a y before you, and without making any allusion to t h e manner in which the affair was conducted f r om beginning to end, I shall s t a n d upon what I consider my r i g h t to have t h e stakes paid to me after t h e question of t h e referee's decision shall have been f u l l y investigated by you. — Yours, & c, ENOCH READ. 50, Howe- street, Birmingham, J u l y 15, 186- 3. If Mr Read can prove satisfactorily that tlie referee decided in his favour, we shall, of course, award h im the stakes, and all bets will be payable, as a decision once given cannot be recalled. The referee, however, has called on us since we received this letter, and positively denied that he gave any decision at all on t h e ground, and says his only decision is t h a t the ponies shall trot again. He declares that the backers of both ponies behaved most shamefully, t h a t he was threatened on all hands, a n d that of the two t h e most to be blamed were those who supported Potato Bob. This statement confirms t h a t of our reporter, and although the backers of Potato Bob have brought us affidavits to the effect that the referee did give a decision in their favour, it is impossible for us to come to a n y satisfactory conclusion, especially as Mr Harrison, the owner of Daisy, has intimated to us that he is in a position to produce evidence contradicting that of t h e Potato Bob party. As the case stands at present we decline to give an opinion either way, and must wait to see what another week will bring forth. A match, for £ 25 a side, between Mr Hughes's chesnut horse Jack Eossiter and Mr Morse's chesnut mare Skitty whiffer, causes much excitement among t h e admirers of fast trotting. The time named for t h e race is Tuesday, the 2 l s t inst, at eight o'clock, a. m. The whereabouts can be known at Mr Banks's, t h e Triumph, Skinner- street, Somers Town; Mr Cotton's, t h e Eoyal Standard, Shepherdess- walk; and M r H a d l i n ' s , t h e Hare, Hoxton Old Town. GOODWOOD EACES.— Race glasses, matchless for great magnifyi n g power and sharpness of definition, warranted perfectly achromatic.

To- day, at Bow- street, Mrs Lewis Harrow, of Upper Kingstreet, Holborn, was summoned at t h e instance of the Board of Works to answer a charge of having suspended a number of large crinolines eight feet above the foot pavement, and projecting t h r e e feet into t h e p u b l i c thoWjoghfare, contrary to the provisions of the Metropolitan Paving,£ ct, 57 Geo 3, c. 65. The summons was taken out at t h e instance of some of the neighbours of t h e defendant, who objected to the unsightly and disgusting exhibition at her shog. The words of the act were, " That no tradesman or; other person should hang out any meat, offal, or other matter or t h i n g over any public footway, under a penalty of 40s for t h e first offence and £ 5 for t h e second. It was contended that this act of Parliament which was passed many years ago, was intended to apply to ® very different state of things to t h e present. In those days t he streets were so n a r r ow y o u could shake hands with your opposite neighbour, and it would have been very objectionable to have a ny obstructions in t h e streets.— Mr Corrie was of opinion that as a crinoline was a " m a t t e r or t h i n g , " it necessarily came within th ® meaning of this act, but as the only object waa to prevent the occurrence of the offence, he should only inflict a penalty of Is and costs,— The defendant said she should noi^ remove the nui sance, and she was told that in t h a t case flie penalty would be i n. creased to £ 5. THE HOUSE OF CALL FOR MOURNERSAt t h e Thames police court, to- day, Mr Alfred Ginnoneau, land' lord of t h e Bell and Mackerel public- house, Mile E n d , was charjf 1 with having admitted persons to h is house on Sunday last betv; the prohibited hours of four a n d five o'clock.— The defendant K >. d t h a t a great number of funerals caine on a Sunday to t h e Mile E n d Cemetery, a n d his house was t h e house of call for t h e undertakers and their men and t h e mourners. They many of t h em came f r om a long distance, and he therefore t h o u g h t they might be treated as travellers.— The magistrate declined to say whether undertakers and mourners would be ranked as travellers. It was for the defendant to use h i s own discretion, but in this case it was proved t h a t t h e doors h a d been open to other persons besides travellers. The magistrate postponed his decision till Saturday next. OUTRAGE ON TWO PERSONS IN X RAILWAY CARRIAGE. To- day, at Marlborough- street, a labourer was brought up for committing assaults of a most murderous n a t u r e upon JamesWar laud and another man, by stabbing t h em with a k n i f e in a secondl class r a i l w a y carriage. The i n j u r e d man was unable to attend. As t h e outrage h a d occurred at Bletchley t h e magistrate sent t he case t h e r e for investigation. ATTEMPT BY A MOTHER TO MURDER HER TWO CHILDREN. To- day, at Clerkenwell police court, Elizabeth [ Robbing, ot Lock's- gardens, Clerkenwell, was charged with attempting to poison h e r two children and herself w i t h white precipitate powder.

Any rifle, a n y position. Highest possible score by each competitor at each range, 60 points. Nearly all the competitors used match Whitworth's— a new pattern of rifle very heavy in the barrel, fastened to the stock like a sporting rifle. Mr Farquharson alone shot with the Henry. Lord Elcho, Captain Edward Ross, and Lieut- Col Halford fired in the sitting position, Mr Farquharson l y i n g on his back, his left leg across the right, t h e rifle r e t t i ng on the left knee, t h e b u t t under the arm- pit, and his head raised and supported by his left h a n d ; the remainder of t h e competitors on both sides shot l y i n g on t h e chest. Last year the scores were, at each range respectively: England— 34- 3, 298, 249— total 890. Scotland— 295, 264, 165— total 724, the Northerners losing by 166 points. The subjoined record of this year's doings will show t h a t England has improved at each range by the following p o i n t s: — 43, 96, 51— total 190; while Scotland has increased her score thus:— 94, 98, 83— total 275. England has, therefore, beaten the Scotch p a r t y t h i s year by 83 points. Score: ENGLAND. 800 Yards. Total.

The condition of the Money Market during the week may be described as easy and quiet, but the t u r n it may take within the next few days cannot yet be correctly ascertained. There appears to be a n abundant supply of money in hand, with only a moderate demand for commercial and other purposes ; but brokers, nevertheless, cannot be prevailed upon to discount even t h e best t h r e e months' bills under 3f per cent. One circumstance which has hitherto kept t h e market in a r a t h e r stringent state is shown in the Bank of E n g l a n d r e t u r n made u p to Wednesday last. The advances recently made to the public in anticipation of t h e dividends have been in course of repayment, and t h i s is shown by t he decrease t h a t has taken place in the other securities and private balances. Trade throughout the kingdom has been of late very satisfactorily expanded, and the reports daily arriving f r om t he agricultural districts lead to t h e encouraging hope t h a t with t he genial warm weather a full and good harvest may be expected. Investments and speculative sales have occasioned several fluctuations in the E n g l i sh Funds; but as greater disposition has been evinced to effect purchases in this t h a n in the foreign department, the preponderating influence has been favourable, and Consols have closed t h i s ( F r i d a y ) afternoon at 92J 93 for money, and 93 § for t h e account. During the past week business in the Foreign Stock Market continued rather active, and with a few exceptions prices have been well sustained. Mexican Stock has receded about J, Spanish Passive Bonds J, and the Egyptian Loan f. Greek Bonds remained steady. Old Turkish Six per Cents improved f , the Loan of 1858 f , and the Loan of 1862 j. Brazilian, Dutch Rhenish,, a n d Portuguese Bonds remained without material variation. SATURDAY EVENING. TheFunds to- day have shown rather less firmness. Consols closed at 93 to 935 for b o t h money and account. I n the Foreign Market one of the chief features was an advance of I per cent in Mexican Stock, which closed at 37 § | ; the Confe. derate Loan improved to | j dis. Old Turkish Six per Cents rose to 92j 93j, while t h e Loan of 18i8 declined to 70| 71f, and t h a t of 1862 to 67| Railway, J o i n t Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares remained without material alteration in values.
