My engine was thrown on the rails to the r cht. I saw the d. ceased on the bank web an umbrella. Ile was lifted into one of the vans, and Woe to Coventry. Janie, Clawford was called—He said, I am foreman of the lee intoner depot tenent at the Rugby station, and have 6-en in that situation five years and • quarter. Yisterday winner I examined the engine No. 1.53 before it came out of the shed. I tound her all right. limbs had sot been so, I shatild not have allowed her to leave the station. Ceoner—What do you believe to have occasioned the sect. n: Witi.e.s—l have made a careful examination of the eng.a, on, the accident, and hem the appearance of the eLstay•. - whie‘ arc broken nut of the sockets, I think the ma. peen must hive h..il a blow during its journey between Birmnithese and the place where the accident happened. fly Mr. Derr —Oa the 2'lrd of last month, this ash-pan was cr. nethened by five new bolts and one new "stay.' Cy the Coroner—ln my experience I never knew an steal, ut of a similar character. I was six years in the same situation as 1 now hold on the Gloucester Mid Birmingham railway. By a Juror—Had the ash-pan been struck by something en the road the driver ought to have felt it, though he 'ingot not have done so. Idu not however believe that the ash.pin came off at the moment it was struck. The blow inizht have loosened it only, and it might afterwards become detached. I examine the ash-pans, every night when the lure-Lars are taken out. We are always very careful about this. Coroner—Have you anything more to offer, Mr. Whitten ? Mr. Whitten said he had examined the ath.pan, and he would give the result of his examination either as evidence or as an oral statement to the jury. Coroner—Whichever you please. Mr. Whitten then said, in the absence of positive proof, which of course in such a case must necessarily be wanting. any opinion as t. the cause of the accident must he mere conjecture. It bad not been shown that any obstruction had been thrown upon the line, and from an examination of the esh-pen he was inclined to believe that time had completely worn away the bolts fastening the straps on one side, and thus the ash-pan hail given way. This be thought Merited a reasonable clue to account fur the accident en fond by the circumstance that the driver had sworn that he had experienced no shock, which he must have done lad there been any obstacle on the permanent way. Coroner—Then you coaclude that the faulty butts were Overlooked. Mr. Whitten—No; if 1 were to do so I should be im puting blame to some p.rty, which lam not, but I think it quite risible, seeing that the engine is five yeus old, and that it is some time since it has bees overhauled that some of these bolts might have proved defective. In reply to the coroner, the witness Crawford here stated that he examined the engines previously to every journey, and, if any one was found defective it woe replaced by a sound one, and was seat to Wolverton with a certificate of the repairs requisite, which were at once executed. The coroner expressed his readiness to facilitate the ends of justice by hearing any additional evidence that might be adduced ; and Mr. ilruyeres and the officers of the com pany th dared themselves most anxious to throw any light that could possibly be obtained on the accident. ti nder these circumstances, the suggestion of a juror that some in dependent machinist resident in the town should be re. roosted to examine the engine wee readily agreed to, and a Mr. Mosedals haying been solicited to act, proceeded to the spot in company with Mr. l'rosser, the high constable. After • lapse of about half an hour, Mr. Joseph Mustilale we. called and examined. Be said—l have just been to the Coventry station, and have teen the engine No. 163 and its aslopen. One of the nibs which holds up the pan appears to have been broken off for some time, and the others appear in a very bad state. But the tire wee in the engine, and I could not swathe it pro- perly. The Coroner—ls the fire in the engine now ? Witness—lt is. The the thing Id altogether in • bed state. The urns work belonging topan was decayed; but they haven't got it all here. There are parts that are not here now. The Coroner—Be good enough to repeat what you have just said. This seems important. Witutss—An engine and aah-pan have been shows to me this day at the Coventry station. The " rungs or nitre " that hold the fire-guard to the firebox are decayed. The Coroner—How would that be produced—by wet or what ? Witness—By the heat of the fire, and the tenth of time they have been in me. They are doss to the fire. The Coroner—Can you give any idea as to bow the ash pan came to fall off, or to break off, or to be wreathed off? Wit/ow—Well, I should say that it has fall= or from the decayed parts of the iron. It seise to be altogether gate, the iron dose. A juror—That is the general impression of all of we. The Coroner—Then there is a lie somewhere. The wit new Crawford said he examined the engine yesterday morning and the firebox sad salt-pan were perfectly safe and right. Witness—l should like to examine it more closely. If the My were out I could judge better, but speaking from the present appearance of the seer end aibe I sno we d say they were decayed, imam' through from the heat of the are and the friction. A juror —Worn thy, feet? Witness—Tee, was ilism Ifs hos* of time they have been in wear, or tom The Coroner—This does not at all wee with what has been stated before. Crawford said amen the Zird of last month tire new bolts were put in. Witness—Yes ; but those are not the bolts, those are the These nibs might have been decayed whew he put the lie bd.. in, and he not have noticed it. If I bad lied the other parts of them I should have been better able Melody, end they have thus somewhere. tree juror here suggested that Crawford should be re called. Another complained that be should have been pre sent during the examination of the last witness ; and is:- wombs dropped of anything but a complimentary charier ter towards the coroner, several of the jury asserting that they hail a duty to perform as well as that gentleman, lad that if they sat there for a week they w would at all events doehr,e eetheir obligations to their fetiotowsemes sad to thi Tt 61 ' • The Coroner said if the interruptions were persisted is he would cle ar th e room entirely ; mad a juror declared that the coroner had " caught him up" several times, sad that ht would ere justice done. A Juror (to Mr. Moredale).-eTeo cams der that one of these slays was broken before yesterday morning? Witness. —Yes, as far as I ma see; but remember, they are immediately under the fire ; sad it is quite impossible to take a proper view while it Is herniate, se t is at present. The Juror summated (apparently with the uncurraneeof his fellow.jurymen) that a public impaction should Ulm place when the engine would be cool. Mr. Whitten hoped that in the MUM= the Lord Chief Justice or the Home fkrretary would be tO se that some th oroug hl y independent acientiarglidentlenome Might malm an inquiry into the circumstances. encurrently with this remark from Mr. Whitten, Mr. MCOOdril was praying that the same course might ho adopted. The Coroner promised acquiescence in their views, and the Proceedings were adjourned for a week. Doc& nu's-Lae n,Weinesday Wiest.

The Temperance-house is within hearing dis tance of the Polies Barrack. I walked from the street into the Temperance Rooms. I spoke to the voters, and asked them had thi y any reason why they would not go with the liberal candidates. They replied they were afraid, that they were entirely at the mercy of the lanelords, that they had no lases, and were liable to be turned off at a moment's notice. Mr. 4,ou—Surel7 we are not going to try the land lords of the county here. This has nothing to do with the investigation. Mr. Coffey—lt has, inasmuch as it shows why the requi sition for the military was issued. We will requite you to produce that requisition. Lieutenant Colonel Douglaa Raid be would produce the requisition, upon the understanding that he would get it beck again. Mr. Coffey. —Certa inly. Dr. O'Connor to Mr. liraydon—l went into the Temper anee.rooms for the purpose of endeavouring, by persuasion, to induce them to vote fur the liberal members. _ . Lieutenant-Colonel Douglas, Assistant Adjutant-General of the Limerick District, WWI this last witness examined, and he produced the following c ipy of the requisition for the military issued by the magistrates: " To Colonel Douglas, Adjutant-General of her Majesty's Forces, Limerick, We the undersign, d magistrates of the polling district of Six-mile•bridge having reason to believe, from informa tion a'rrady received, that a large body of freeholders rout ing from the Limerick side of this county are likely to he interrupted by a piety organised for the purpose of pre venting their corning to the poll, request that you will be pleased to afford an escort of military for their protection on Thursday morning, the 22nd inst., as the force quer tered here is barely sufficient to preserve order in the vicinity of this :own. Can, if required, shall be pro vided for their convenience. "Given under our hands at Six-mile Bridge, this 20th day of July, 1852, "James Butler, J.P.D.L. " James Creaghe, J.P. " Eyre levers, 3.1'. " John C. l)elmege, "John Uabbett, J.P. " P.B.—The urgency of this case has prevented the within mentioned magistrates from obtaining the previous sanction of the high sheriff; but by this day's post he has been in formed of the step we have taken. " Jove C. Dehuton. " Dated this 20th July, 1852." Cross-examined—lt was the duty of the escort to protect the people, and if the officer allowed any of them to be takin from him by force, or injured. he would be liable to the most serious charge which could be brought agoinst a military man. Ile would be tried by court-martial. It would be • gross dereliction of duty. It is the duty of the escort, acting under proper authority, to deliver the pcepls up at the place of destination. If they were taken away against their will, it would be a violation of the safeguard. When there is a magistrate in command he is the person to give the orders ; but in a case of emergency, soloiers possess the right of every other subject, to use the arms which they have for their defence. To Mr. Blackball—The orders are :many given through the officers. Captain Hagar was the officer in command, and has made a report of the occurrence. (Report pro duced.) 11e-examined—lt is not usual for soldiers to take upon themselves to act without orders when an officer is in com mand, hut cases might arise where they would be perfectly justified, and our regulations imperatively call upon them to do so. It is clearly the duty of the soldiers not to allow their ranks to be broken. It is the duty of the OifiCtis, if on : the spot, to give instructions what to do, in ease of hrrakine the ranks. There were two sergeants to the forty-two men on the occasion. Such was my order. It is the duty of the soldiers to take orders from the ser geants, if the officer is not present. Where the military are in contact with a mob, in a cue of apprehended at tack, it is the duty of the officer to consult with the magistrate, if there be one present, as to the firing. If paving-stones are thrown, I think soldienwould be justified in firing. I would not think it right to fire upon • flying crowd—l never heard of such a cue. lu all cams, where it is practicable soldiers should wait for the order of their off ft• rs, and the Milan should communicate with the ma gistrates. In a case where soldiers fire they are told off in sections. In ordinary eases, if the soldiers aro under the command of an officer, they are not to fire a second time without orders. If soldiers fire without orders, they would be justified in firing again if the same cause existed. From all I have heard Mr. Delmege gave no orders to fire in the affray at Six-mile-bridge. The officers and men have told me so. If an attempt should be made to disarm a man, or take off his bayonet, he would be justified in defending his arms to the last extremity. The cross-examination of this witness concluded at ha'f past 6 o'clock, and the inquest was then adjourned until 10 o'clock this morning.

TILE MURDERS AT THE CLARE ELECTION. CORONER'S INQUEST. taunt tv, Auouar 4. The adjourned inquest on the six unfortunate men, shot at Six-mile-bridge by a detachment of the 31st Regiment while escorting voters at the late Clare election, wits resumed yesterday, and excited the utmost interest throughout the neighbouring coun try. At an early hour in the morning two troop+ of the 3rd Dragoon Guards, the depot of the 47th Regiment, the depot of the 92nd Highlanders, and a eumpan) of the 11th Regiment, errived from Lime rick, bringing with thorn tents and the other neces saries for HQ encampment, which was soon made on space of ground adjacent to the court-house. 'rho' coroner arrived Lite, hosing hod to accompany the jury to view the body of another man who had died of his wounds since the inquest had been opened. A great number of barristers, attorneys, magi itrates, and priests were present. Mr. Charles Molony, who acted as Wire.rer to the co roner, stated that they Were there to try by what means M. Conellan, Thomas Ryan, J mes Flaherty, Michael Cole man, and James Casey came by their deaths, and aloe how Jeremiah Frawley came by his death, whom they had seen that day at Clonlohati. Ile hoped there would be an avoidance of all exciting tepies, and as little spreching as Possible at either side during lac present most important investigation. Michael Canny, of Mary-street, in the city of Limerick, was the first witness sworn,and examined by CoUllidiOr Coffey— 'l am a publican. On the morning of the 22nd July, between seven and right o'clock, while walking in front of my own house, • man who was passing told me there were Clare voters in the 't mperance-room at Thottiond-gate. I went and saw about halls set re of people collect, il. I had a conversation from the *Endow of th. Ti mperance-house with two of the voters ; their names were Jame. Friot and Laura-ore Fro , t. I saw a man named Ooggin there. 1 don't know his Chrstian name, but be lives at Meelick. There was another mail with Mr. (leggin. I didn't know hi. name, but I have since learned he was a Mr. Keane. The heat gentleman that came up at Thomond-gate was Mr. Delmege. I would know him among 3,000. It was young Mr. Delmege, whom I saw in court to-day. Ile had a party of military with him. Mr. Graydon said he didn't know what a transaction, that occurred at Thomond-gate, had to do with the trans action at Six , nrle-bridge. Mr. Coffey—l will trace it from the beginning to the end. Canny, in continuation—They were foot soldiers, and arrived at the Temperance-hou-e, and got off. They formed two deep. I heard directions given them, Mr. Graydon objected to the witness stating who gave the directions, or what they were. Mr. Coffey considered he had a perfect right to do so. Witness—Directions to load were given by Mr. Delmege ; the soldien dill load upon their of repeating the order given by Mr. Delmege. Mr. Kenny asked if it wit the iteention of Mr. Coffey to accuse Mr. Delmege in this case ? Mr. Coffey—l will pur'ue my own course. Canny—Thomonil-gate is in the borough of Limerick. After the soldiers loaded, the officer in command ,offered them to fix bayonets. After they did so, the officer tamed to Mr. Delmege and said, " I am ready now, sir." Mr. Delmege told him to go forward and get them out. The sergeant stepped forward and shook the door by an iron handle. A private also west forward and struck the door three or four times with the butt-end of hie gun. A woman opened the door and told the soldier not to break her door. She said he was at the wrong door, and told him taont I o rosau.ndthteo door r th o e pe r door.o pened The out lo an ldie i n nte d rr id u r tio ro n und i saw the voters come out and go into the cars. The . two Freets wens amongst them. I saw a pistol in Mr. Delmege's hand. I saw a man named Coetelloe there ; he muttered something to Mr. Delmege, who presented a pistol to his (Costelloe's) breast, and said, " I would hero you be quiet, my lad or I will give you the contents of this." Mr. Blackball said he was quite unprepared for this, and should request the coroner to allow Mr. Delmege to come into court. -- Mr Kenny—Thin is a direct charge against Mr. Del mege, and it is only fair be should be in court. The Coroner decided that Mr. Delmege ought to be in court, and he was accordingly called. Canny—Mr. Delmege also raid, " Ye had yet' election, my boys, we will have ours now, or blond for it." 1 now identify Mr. Delmege as the gentleman to whom I allude. The gentleman who I was told was Mr. Keane, had aims as well u Mr. Delmer. There wee neither ex citement or anything improper going cm when all this oc curred in Thomond-gate. Cross-examined by CuunseUor Oraydon—l was Ave years in the East India Company's service. I haven't my die ' charge about me. I saw no violence used by the people in Thomond-gate. A man knocked a stick against the ground. ' I saw no stones thrown. It was for my own amusement I went over to Thsmondgate. To the Cooney—lncluding the military, the voters Mr. Delmer, and all, I don't think there were 300 assembled.

I went with • long four-horse car to Wellesley bridge, where nineteen soldiers of the 31st Regiment got upon the vehicle. There were other soldiers there. We went along about two miles on the Ennis road, and we there met young Mr. Keane, of Ennis. He was on a car with another enrlemen. Mr. Delmege and Mr. Keane had some conversation, end Mr. Deleeuw' ordered me to return back. Mr. Delmer' was on a car by himself. I did return back, and went tate Thomond-gate. The 19 soldiers of the list were still upon my car. I shgeW at Themond-gate by Mr. Delmege's orders. The: Maine then got off the car, and were directed by their Asir le fall in.

Messrs. Dunne and Auchinleck, the eminent Dub lin corn and flour factors, have compiled, from com munications received in reply to inquiries addressed to their correspondents throughout the country, a re port on the present state and prospects of the potato and other crops in Ireland. From this report I select the subjoined items communicated from some ' of the principal localities : CARRICII-ON•SH•NNON, ATOOST 2.-1 regret to state that the potato crops in this locality have been, so far as the stalk, greatly affected—indeed you will scarcely see a Held that is not touched less or more, and appears progressing for the last ten days very considerably. TM oat crop is, I think, looking well, and we will have a fair average crop. CAIMICILINIROVS, AUGUST 2.—Wheat sad oats will be rather more than an average crop, and from present ap pearance an early harvest. There is some smut or rust in the winter sown wheat. lam sorry to say the potato crop is diseased, but not so much as last year, at the semi time I think there will be a tolerably fair yield. NswnalDOE, Avo 2.—1 have not heard complaints of any of the green crops, save potatoes, which are becoming universally and rapidly diseased. However, I consider that if this weather continues two-thirds of them will be free from blight. Ci.onatzt., Acocat 2.—As regards your inquiry about the pot‘to crop, from all we can learn the disease has as sumed a more violent character then last year, or previous year. We much fear the late crops will turn out to little account. DULEIRK, AUGUST 2.—With respect to the potato crop, all the fields about here are damaged, and I fear will be as had as any year since the disease appeared. There was a rumour that the wheat crop was also injured, but I am informed such is not the ease to any extent. Barley and oats look well, and promise an abundant crop. LIMIRICK, Atio. 2.-1 have travelled a great deal through the country for the last four or five days, and in general the leaves of the potato are a good deal withered, and extending to the stalk, but on inquiry I find there are very few of the roots touched. . . I saw the blight so extensive or so general, and appearing so early as it has this year. The wheat crop, not so large a breadth planted, but appears healthy and productive. A large quantity of oats, which appears fine ; as also barley, but the ear light. ENNISCORTHY, Ato. 2.—Respecting the crops ill this neighbourhood, we regret to state that the disease in the potato root is rapidly increasing, particularly amongst the early sown. Even now we think there is one-third of them injured, and fear, from all we can learn, that the sup ply will be far deficient of that of last lesson. The grain crop is promising very . well, though we have seen some heads of wheat partially injured. Oats comprise nearly half of the corn crop in this neighbourhood, the produce we are told is good, but not equal to last year. HATHDOWNET, AVOLIer 2.—As regards the potato a very derided manifestation of disease has taken place, and, should the present alarming symptoms receive no check, I fear the very wont results for the crop. From the first attack on the leaves to the ulterior visitation on the tuber generally three weeks intervene ' but this season it has been much more rapid in its descent. A large breadth of land has been planted under the Scotch pink eye, which in almost every field evidences rapid decay. ENNISKIIIRRY, JICLY 31.—Rumours respecting the pro gress of the potato disease have bean prevalent in this part of the country during the last week, but I have not seen a single diseased potato. Others concur with mo in this opinion. NAVAL Aroutrr 2.—The potato crop has considerably failed is this neighbourhood, particularly all forts of white potato. The oat crop looks remaikably well; if the weather holds such as at present until saved, it will be more than an avetsge. Wheat is showing symptoms of blight, and by no means promises favourably. CORK, Arotter 2.—We have a large breadth of ground under potatoes this season; it is generally reported that they ore getting black, and that the disease is increasing daily. I hear that the wheat crop is likely to be deficient in quantity. I cannot say as to the quality. Two most ex tensive farmers have told me that the potato disease is the worst biIICO 1546. _ _ KILDARE, AUOVST 2.—Respecting the potato crop it was not worse these eight years in this neighbourhood ; in fact they are of little use, but all other crops are likely to do well. Wheat is promising to be a good crop. SNINILONIL AUGUeT 2.—1 am terry to have to inform you that the potato crop is almost a total failure, for miles around here the disease is making sad and rapid progress since about this day sennight. The potatoes in my kitchen garden are getting worse every day ; in fact, they are worse than they have been since 1846. With regard to wheat, there has net been more than about one-fourth of the usual breadth sown, it promises a fair average quality, and will be ready (with good weather) for the sickle in ten days. Barley and oats promise abundance. In my memory the oat crop n looked better, nor, indeed, so well, item well, with which there is a more than us ual quantity of it sown. IkIULLINOAIL, JULY 31.—50 far as my own observation, end the inquiries I have made, I have no hesitation in I saying that the potato crop is gone to a considerable extent, and that the disease is fast progressing ; all the other crops (particularly oats) most luxuriant and promising. You are, I presume, aware that there is scarcely any wheat grown in this neighbourhood. TiIoNAsTOWN, 31st JULY.—The appearance of the grain crops in this neighbourhood is most promising. Barley and oats far over an average. What quite up to it, for though short in breadth of ground under it, it is generally long headed, thick in the ground, and every appearance of pro. ductiveness. Potatoes are a melancholy subject. The disease is universal; it is only a question of degree. lto SSSSS OIL, COUNTY Down, 31st JULY.—The potato disease has made its appearance throughout the county of Armagh to some extent, but up to the present no very serious harm has been done, but the farmers are very much alarmed. I have observed one field which was diseased about ten days ago, and I don't see that it is getting any worse than it was. Our wheat, oats, barley, and fiat an very good, and I think we have fair prospects. KILREADEN, WATIRTORD, 31st JOLT.—AII far as the writer has been able to learn, the potato crop is decidedly much injured in this neighbourhood, particularly along the sea coast. A report received this morning from Dungaree's, states " potatoes are decaying rapidly, and farmers are doubtful they will hold till harvest is gathered. New Rots, JULY 31.—1 beg to inform you that in my opinion this will be one of the worst yeah with regard to the potato disease that we have had autos 1846. AU the potatoes in this neighbourhood are totally blighted, and are getting black within this week. Last week we had the potatoes pretty fair for using, but this week they are gone. Wheat will not he an ramie crop in this locality, it is by no means pleatiful nor good. Barley will be a pretty fair asp, but there Ms not been much sown. Oats in some plasm very poi, sad in other places very bad. It will be mart* an avesege crop, but it is more in extent sown than all the sem ors dope. TIMM= JULY 31.—1 regret to say that the potato disuse le mold% rapid strides, and more than half the crop is pas la is neighbourhood. As to what, it is not at all en andesively sown here this year as last. The Mine observation nay be applied to bare and barley. Oats is ' likely tie he • good crop. COWL JULY 81.—Potatoes haw bees extensively planted throught this esuitty. Opiates is very conflicting as to the extent of tbs. alsease. I base as the belief that a large proportion will Illbehl goui—peuniall upon the fact that they were sewn unusual early, be many die , kids as fez back as 21ayssaber sad Desesibir, sod therefore fully ripened, whir& applies to three-Maths al the crop. The late sown limbs= shrieked, but spot the whale the , tubers have proves bug slightly affected, set *sae brought I to the market are abase% all free from Ceram. Wheat will be a short crop, but barley and eats abaadast—the latter particularly so. CLONWIL,JULY 31.—Within' the last few days the disease has appeared, and from what I can learn it is of a serious character, having seised the is spot t ed.entireare where ea disease shows, and almost every potato RIDCROSII, WICKLOW, JULY 31.—1 an sorry to have to inform you that the potato crop in this part of the country is very much injured. Wheat, in my opinion, sad, indeed from anything I can ascertain, is men or lees so ; and oats, I believe, is very much damaged, with the exception of the tummy. I do not know much shout barley, as there is very little sown in this neighbourhood, but, in general, I think It is dogs, welL TESTIMONIAL TO MR. GEORGE THOMPSON.— A meeting of Mr. Thompson's Mends In the Tower Ham lets took place last evening at the British Institution, Cow per-street, for the purpose of considering on the presenta tion of • suitable testimonial to their late representative, in approval of his murices in the cause of civil and religious freedom. Mr. Reynolds presided, and stated that the move ment lied originated with • committee who assembled at the house of one of their number.—Mr. C. B. Williams moved " that on a review of the services rendered by Mr. Thompson to the Tower Hamlets at the general election of 1847, and subsequently in parliament, as well u his uniform devotion throughout the whole of his public life to the cause of personal, political and religious freedom, it is the opinion of this meeting that it is due to their late representative to mark their sense of his integrity as a public man, and their appreciation of his labours, by • testimonial, and to afford to the friends of Mr. Thompson, in the Tower Ham lets and elsewhere, en opportunity of uniting in the accom plishment of that object." He said the movement had ori ginated at his house ; and he had thrown out the sugges tion of • freehold house being presented to Mr. Thompson. He had since mentioned it to several friends, who all con• curred in its Propriety. (Hear.) Mr. 8. David, in second ing the resolutino, approved the suggestion of Mr. Williams. Mr. Boa entirely approved of the proposal, and impressed a hope that the whole of Mr. Thompeon's triads would cor dially unite in carrying it oat. He should be most happy to do all in his power towards such en object. (Hear.) The resolution was unanimously agreed to. Mr. Holdup moved, " That:the suggestion of Mr. C. B. Williams, that Mr. 1 hompson should be presented with& freehold house within the limits of the Tower Hamlets, would be a suitable and proper mode of expressing the high esteem and warm at tachment entertained towards that gentleman by a large majority of the electors and non-electors of the boronoh, and other friends of human freedom ; and this meeting pledges itself to use its utmost efforts to carry such s tion into effect." Mr. Thomas, of Hackney, seoonded the resolution. At the close a vote of thanks was penult° the chairman.

BRIGHTON RACES.-WEDNEBDAY. The me of this meeting, published on Tuesday, and the vast number of horses congregated In the town that evening to compete for price* that in value and importance spoke volumes for the liberality and judgment of the management, led to anticipations with reference to the sport, that, so far, bare been realised to the fullest ex tent; such • day's racing hu never been witarised on Brighton Down', and it is satisfactory to be enabled to add that there is every prospect of the second and third days being equally good—the weather agreeably d i sappointing, the fears engendered by the heavy rains on Tuesday after noon, turned out extremely fine. The company, in conse quence, was large and fashionable, and the grand stand, which has been greatly improved by the addition of a com modious suite of rooms for the transaction of the lumina' of the course (including one for the reporters), crowded; the opening, in short, was worthy of the queen of watering places. We are bound to Add, however, that the late hour at which the races commeneed—a quarter before three— was very generally disapproved, and that the half hour in ureal rendered it impossible to keep time, and caused the sports to be protracted until nearly seven o'clock.
