THE lATE C:IESTER MEETING, AND HINTS FOR YORK, DONCASTER, ASCOT, AND SALISBURY. TO TIM EDITOR OF TRIS EXPRISIA. Sin,—Unlike Hermit for the Two Thousand, all the favourites, about whose starting for the Cheater Cup there had been such grave doubts expressed, favoured their backers with an appearance, the ring goers haring it plainly demonstrated to them at last that Lecturer, Muul sey, Archimedes, llama, and Beeswing were anything but "deed," like Dolby. Goniera, Proserpine. Newland. Bracken, and other early " good things." They turned out far more likely than the crack to whom no suspicion seemed to attach, Miss Havelock, but for whose after-per. formauces, and those of old Moulsey, the gathering on the banks of the Dee would have passed off calmly enough, though there was something for the lovers of the " might-have-been" to talk about, after the principal contest in the mishaps that happened to Lecturer, Lucifer, &c. These were sadly knocked about, owing to the swerving of Rescue or Rune, the latter not being sufficiently up to the mark to run straight ; but they were not interfered with so seriously as Moulsey, who could have been third even after losing one stirrup, and might have beaten the winner at a stone, improved as Beeswing is, especially when considering how he struggled against her for the Liverpool Autumn Cup, conceding in 51b. He beat Lecturer far enough in the Marquis of Westminster's Plate, and accomplished a great feat when carrying home his fist llb for the City Plate ; but these were over his own favourite distance, a mile and a quar ter, at which he beat the jaded Regalia on the fi rst day, and, besides, three of his opponents on Friday, Stratbconan, Skirmish, and Miss Havelock, were all thrown out at the last turn by the cannoning caused by Archimedes cutting it Had it not been for this contretemp, Richmond might have won with the gallant grey—and Miss Havelock have been second to him, the latter's defeat greatly disappointing her new owner, the Marquis of Hastings, who was deemed to have b ought anything but a Kangaroo when he took her for 1,500 f. after she won the Queen's Plate. This was the sensation performance of the week, it being a singular coincidence that, as in the Northamptonshire Stakes, she and the Amanda colt (who " ran out " in the Chester Cup, when looking well) were the longest-priced animals in the race, and ran first and second again. After her exhibition in the great event, she having figured among the last lot all the way until she ran through her horses at the finish, the easy style in which she polished off all her opponents for her Majesty's gift took everybody by surprise, for it not only showed Regalia was so very much " off " (as her stable companion, Caithness, turned out in the City Plate) that she could not have won the Cup with Gat 71b, or the Peer with fist, but told us at the same time that the Amanda colt and Honestish, two " fairish" animals, would have been nowhere too had they been in the field with fist—and Miss in the same humour on Wednesday, of course, as she was on Thursday. But Lord Zetland's cast-off has been one of the mysteries of the season, and we may not see her fairly measured now for some time to come, as handicappers are not likely to treat her very leniently, though when she has a chance given her they are not likely to be idle at Danebury. J. Day's party were out of luck altogether at Chester, for apart from Lecturer's second overthrow of their calculations, many of the little " pots" were upset, and a ll they won during the four days were the Chesterfield Handicap, with Red Riband, two selling races with Traviata, and a two-year-old stake with Traviata after most of the bookmakers had taken their departure. Mr. Heathcote's good luck followed him up (" it rains," &c.) after the Cup ; but Wadlowe's party won the greatest number of races at the meeting, no fewer than nine races falling to the lot, and Lady High thorn having the good fortune to meet the two best young sters that came out against her for her second race, Ti maru and Idaho', more backward than she is herself. John Day did not come with Lecturer, be and Fordham having stopped at Danebury to take care of Vauban for the Derby ; nor was the rival favourite, the Rake left by either his trainer or jockey, though there were signs once of a screw being loose with the unconquered one, who was " fishy" even after his stable companion, Van Amburgh, had given some signs of being a good horse by winning the Dee Stakes. Another old favourite, Dragon, was more severely mauled by the men of pencil, and should aught really happen to Hermit or the Rake, there is no telling now what might not win the Derby, in despite of the second division of favourites comprising nothing better than Marksman, Julius, Grand Oves, the Palmer, and D'Estournel, and the outside division likely to start coming down to Fits-Ivan, Plaudit, Van Amburgh, Master But terfly, a second Frenchman, Corporal, Distin, Flamingo, Captain Kidd, Priority, Skysail, and perhaps Taisban and Thornapple. The current week may tell some strange tales, for no turfite will care to be idle while there are the York and Doncaster programmes in the north, and Ascot and Salisbury in the south, to assist at, and the bookmen will not forego the chance to operate. There is no judging what the Ascot meeting (the last swing one to be held) will be like, but that it will prove a great one can hardly be expected, seeing how poorly it fared last year, when the programme was much stronger, for if the weather is ever so fine the 10s. per day to the stind, should the old charge be persisted in, may be considered too strong by holiday people. Only four of the fourteen items in the bill of fare are completed as yet, though it is questionable whether more than one or two owners will put down a " pony " for the privilege of contesting the 2001. South Western Plate with D'Estournel, Knight of the Garter, &c., and with k'riponnier in the Mile Bien nial, that may be booked as pretty well over, Knl c t , of the Garter having come to Chester rather big, and po mix, the Rescue, and Huntsman being the best o the others. A poor lot, too, are in the Brabant Han dicap, one mile and five furlongs, Tourmalin, Sealskin, Special, Foresight, Van Amburgh, and Freemason being all I can set down as fair class animals ; and the staying of the three last-named is doubtful, or I should have a great respect for the lion tamer. The ability of Skirmish to get the course, how ever, is equally doubtful ; and he being the " beat-in "of the moderate lot, there is a chance for Mr. Fleming's colt. The two-year-old stakes I cannot touch, seeing that Nut pecker, Manton, Chantilly, Purveyor, Di Vernon, Jenny, Pompier, Belle Jeanne, Cawdor, Fair Star, Witch craft, N o rth Meriden, sister to Maid Marian, Choral, Lic tor, and Limner in the Grand Stand Plate, and Beautiful Star, Strike-a-Light, Jenny, Pompom., Dulcet, North Marston, Lictor, and Veda in the Bunninghill, have all failed to prove themselves more than second-raters in pub lic, and a good darkie ought to win either race. The Salis bury stakes are nearly all perfected ; but the crack stables in the neighbourhood have too many in each for me, John Day claiming eight in the chief Handicap, while William has Charles the Second and Special, the latter being as well treated by the handicapper as the turned-loose Split - rote colt. Then there are Lord Ronald, Pantaloon, and Freemason, among others, in the Craven Plate, Red Riband in the Old Castle Stakes, and Lord Ronald in the Salisbury Cup ; and the only strong conclusion I can arrive at is that Lady Elizabeth will win the Salisbury Stakes if she starts, there being no better performers in the Wilton Park Stakes than Milton and the 41b penalised Pyrenees. In the north, Grimston can spoil moot of the two-year old events, he being a long way the best I have seen in the Zetlaud at York, though his owner possesses a second string bare. Ilia confederate has Bismarck and Knight Errant, too, in the second day's Eglin ton Stakes, for which, however, Wroughton can beat the whole stable, supposing the prize ix good enough for Mr. Cartwright. If Saocharometer does not bid for the Craven (and be may prefer the Ascot Trial) that will be an open race, after Knight of the Crescent's Newmarket running; and the Great Northern Handicap, two miles, will puzzle the knowing ones, seeing that Kama, Strathconan, Beeswing, and Archimedes are close together at the weights, which are very different to those they car ried at Chester. It is not improbable they will all be beaten, Itetrouss6, Fitzroy, and Bracken being fairly in; and Retrouski may win if Hawkswell, receiving a stone, does not happen to be a good hone. Honestish will about do for the Knavesinire Plate ; and Audaz, Dunrobin, and Skylark are all suited to the Londesborough Cup, as are Snowstorm and Comes for the Tally-he Stakes, and Master Willis for the Flying Dutchman's Handicap. Moat of the Doncaster events, especially the Spring Handicap, will hinge upon how matters transpire at York, or whether Huntsman opposes Honesty for the Trial, Grimston being in the Hopeful and Betting Room Stakes (with Cork Jacket in one ease, and Knight of the Garter in the other, threatening him with a " dust up," however), and also the Clumber Stakes, Counts, again, in the Hunters' Stakes against Marksman ; and Applecrose is turned loose in the short handicaps.—l am, &c., DIETKOR. BETTING IN LONDON.--BAruanAy. There was the usual Saturday muster at the clubs to-day, bat the budded transacted was scarcely in keeping with the attend ance. The running through of the great spring handicaps has caused the Derby for the present to become the centre of specu lation : it was therefore to this all-important event that to-day's operations were confined. Opening offers quickly showed that Vauban was held In wholesome dread, the odd, being limited to 2 to l : subsequently 9 to 4 was laid in two or three iiiirttms, but as a rule layers would not go beyond the price first mentioned. For some time the quotations against The Hake did not exceed 7 tog, responded to by one speculator offering to accept 400 to 100. This gentleman was ultimately aceonuoudisted, the layer disposing of another 100 elsewhere, and still offering to lay SOO to 200. There were several inquiries after Hermit, and at first the price offered stopped short at 8 tog, in some threeur four instances, however, backers did succeed in obtaining nines; but these odds were conceded charily, and, if forthcoming would have been taken to good money. Dragon appeared to be recovering the unhealthiness that has hung about him during the pad week. If 12 to I could have been laid, it would have been readily accepted several times, and failing thin price, there were backers who, in the end, contented themselves with taking a point lees. Grand Cross was in considerable demand, ending many friends at 100 to 6, while at the same time Julius received substantial support, his price lessening from 20 to 1, laid in the first instance, to 100 to 6. Marksman and D'Estour nel were allowed to stand on one side at 20 to 1 each ;offered,. These odds were laid against The Palmer to a small amount, succeeded by the booking of 1000 to 45. " Poor Plaudit" was made the o►sect of a hostile demonstration, and of en per slatent and fierce • character as to present his case in a hopeless light. From 20 to I, the offers extended to 1000 to 30. which was taken twice. 40 to 1 was thee laid, followed by 1000 to 20, and subsequently 290 to 3. Ultimately, one speculator who bad taken 500 to 10, got out by laying 500 to 9, and the horses final tiosition was 60 tot, offered. Fitt Ivan would have been backed at 1000 to 15, but the highest quotation against him was 1000 to 20. The Corporal was backed at 2000 to 14, and the backer could have been dill further accommodated, but t• do :my more. Van Ambugth, Nlurity , riky sell, Captain hid.l, and Tboniapple, were each offered to be laid against in torn. and there were counter IrrOp.itiolle to invent at • few points In excess of those °demi. As much as 2110 to I was laid against Teraina. Betting en places did not produce much bednan& There were offers to accept IS to ♦on Vauban, 30 to 90 was laid against The Rake, and 25 to 10 against Hermit. Grand Cross was amend times inquired after, but the odds of 3 to 1 offered would not null. Marksman was backed at 5 to 1, and Pita Ivan at 10 to 1. The closing quotations were as follow : !, 4 agit Vauban ;V • 40 I :- The Rake and off, Sto 1 Hermit (o ff ,_ . tt to t to 1 wanted, 100 to G Grand enact) I^o to 6 Jnilus 20 to 1 IYFaionntel rt and off. . _ to 1 1000 to 45 Ike Palmer ,t 50 to 1 Plaudit it and oft 1000 to ;:o Pita Iran (oft, t 1000 to 16) PLACE B 1 5 to 4 on Vauban ;AT, t 6 to C 3tl to 29 apt The Bike Ls to to Hermit (I) 3 to 1 Grand Cross 1000 to 12 spat Thornapplo 1000 to 10 Skyseil ,off, t 1000 to 7) 1000 to 10 Priority (off, t 1000 to 7 1000 to 10 Van Mahar& POW to 10 The Corporal It) 1000 to 8 Captain KMd !o, t 1000 to th 400 to 1 Taraban 1000 to 10 Mr. Saville's lot, bar D'6o toamel 'off, t 1000 to 5, 112ITING. 9to S apt Julius (olr fi to 1 Marksman .t' 11 to 2 The Palmeroff tG W 1) 19 to 1 Ptts Imo t 10 W 1 Ploadlt ,otl) ato I Diagon (off, BETTING AT MANCI DO to 4 apt Vauban toff, t 6 to Y r. 7 to The Rake (t of?

This matter came before the court upon five petitions, praying the winding up of the above company, and the sole question was whether the costs of two of those peti tions should be allowed by the court. The facts as to one of these were that it had been pre. sented by Bettis, a judgment creditor of the company, the day after the advertisements of the three other petitions bad appeared in the morning papers, and five days after the advertisement of one of those petitions had appeared in the London Gazette. As to the other petition presented by Soares, a director, and also a contributory and creditor of the company, it was presented eight days after Bettis's petition, as to which the question of costa also arose. Mr. Bacon, Mr. Greene, Mr. Craig, Mr. Cole, Mr. Dickinson, Mr. Kerslake, Mr. Roxburgh, Mr. W. W. Cooper, Mr. Jolliffe, Mr. F. Webb, Mr. Higgins, and several other learned counsel appeared on the petitions. His Honour said three of the petitions were properly presented, but as to Bettis's petition, presented after the advertisements of the others had appeared, it was not shown that he was aware of their presenta tion when he presented his owes. It outlet therefore he concluded that he had no notice of their being presented ; but, with respect to Soaves' petition, his honour thought it would be pessimi exempli that the costs of it should be allowed. Soares was a director, and did not present his petition till long after the others, of the existence of which it was not pretended he was ignorant. His petition would, therefore, be dismissed, and with costa. There would be one order to wind-up the company on the other four petitions, and there would be allowed one set of costs to the creditors and one set to the contri butories appearing on them petitions. (Before Vice-Chanoellor Sir It Mains.) KE CORK AND YOUOILAL RAILWAY COMPANY. This was an application on behalf of the liquidators of Overend, Gurney, and Co. (Limited) for permiaaion to prove as a creditor of the Cork and Youghal Railway Com pany, now in course of winding up. The claim was in respect of Lloyds• bonds amounting to 190,0001., which had been issued by the directors of the railway (maven . Mr. Bailey and Mr. Lindley supported the app ' • Mr. J. N. Higgins appeared for the preference share holders ; and Dlr. Glasse and Mr. Eddie for other parties. The Vice-Chancellor held that there was prima facie evidence of the claim, and sent the matter back to cham bers to consider any evidence that might be offered to im peach the bonds. COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE. Met 4. (Before the Judge Ordinary.) ISNITH AND SMITH V. TRUITT AND MUM. This morning the evidence on behalf of the defence was resumed and concluded. It presented no new features, except that Dr. Williams, of Bethlehem, and Dr. Wood, of Bt. Luke's, gave it as their opinion that a religious de. lesion, commencing at the age of 30, and continuing for 30 years, would not be likely to disappear. Dr. William', on cross examination, said be should not have considered Martin Luther a perfectly mane person. The case was again adjourned. PROVINCIAL SNARE MARKETS.

CHAS. DICKENS AND THE AMERICAN PUBLISHERS. ETp to the publication of " Dombey and Son,'' Mr. Dickens had never received anything from this side of the water for any reprint of his books. It was understood that he was rather more angry with Mews. Harper and Brothers than with any other American publishers. They had just began publishing their New Monthly Matia:ine, and the publishers of The International Magazine were con testing with the Harpers the first place in our periodical literature. After a severe and indecisive struggle of a year, one of the conductors of the the International conceived an ides which, if successfully carried out, would have given the victory to that magazine ; one of its publishers was going abroad, and was authorised to secure from Mr. Dickens " • Ivanced sheets " of hie next novel for publica tion in the International. The steamer on which he had sailed bad hardly got out of eight before Dr. Griswold, of the international, bad given to the Erening Post a sensa tional paragraph stating that Mr. Dickens had been en gaged to write for the International Maga:ine a new novel, for which he wee to be paid 2,000 dollars—a sum larger in 1850 than in 1867, and considered very large for the favour demanded. The watchful Harpers sent out on the next steamer a messenger who went directly to Mr. Dickens. and found him ready for any reasonable offer. The Post with Dr. Griswold's paragraph being shown him, heat once decided to bold the Yankees on the terms therein set forth, and agreed for the 2,000 dollars to furnish Harper and Brothers with advanced chests of the next novel, which was "Bleak House." The messenger of the International had made the very great blunderof going 1 to Mr. Dickens's publisher instead of to Mr. Dickens him , self, was told that Mr. Dickens was busied about private theatricals which would possibly absorb bin attention foran indefinite period. and that no new novel was in con templation. In fact, it very probable that, on account of the bargain with Harpers. " Bleak House " was written before it otherwise would have been. How ever this may be, the gentleman who represented the Inter national rested satisfied with what he he.l been told, and, without seeing Mr. Dickens, proceeded to the Continent in search of health, while Harpers' shrewder messenger ;leer red the coveted prize, and the publishers of the In , ernatiovol soon transferred their subscription list to their competitors. It ap pears then that Messrs. Stringer and Townsend took the first step, albeit an abortive one, in the business of pitying English authors for advanced sheets, a good custom, and one which seems to have benefited Mr. Dickens alone to the extent of about 60,000 dole. 'To this let as add, as connected with the subject, that one of the firm of Hurd and Houghton, being in England a few years since, offered to pay Mr. Dickens a certain share of the profits on the "Household Edition" which they publish. This Mr. Dickens would not receive, considering himself debarred by his agreement with Mews. Harper and Brothers.—Nes York Notion, April 25. ASCOT SPRING MENTING—TuranAT.

GILLS 'S FOUR YEARS AOO. —The myates7 attending the murder of the young woman, Emma Jackson, on the Bth of April, 1863, in George street, St. Giles's, has not to the present time been satis factorily elucidated. Recently a man of respectable ap pearance was discovered dead in a quiet neighbourhood in the city of New York, and on the matter being investi gated by the authorities there was little doubt left on their minds that he had terminated his life by his own hands. On his person there war found a letter written to a friend, stating that he was the man who, on the Bth of April, 1863, beguiled the young woman Jackson to the house in George-street, St. Giles's, and there assassinated her, and that sine. that time he bad travelled from place to place, bus being unable to find any rest he had deter mined upon committing suicide, and that he bad put an and to his unhappy existence. THE DEPOSIT UN RAILWAY BILLS. —A conflict has arisen with respect to railway bills between the Upper and Lower Houses of Parliament, which is likely to cause great confusion in the legislation of the year. Lord Redes. &le will not sanction any bill which does not provide that the 8 per cent deposit shall remain until half the works are completed, while, according to the regulations of the Commons, on a bill being passed the deposit may be with drawn on equivalent security being given. The conse quence is, that bills originating in the Lords have the former clause struck out in the Commons, and those origi nally introduced in the Lower House ou going to the Lords have the proviso inserted.--Situday Gazette.

MARKETS. HARDWARE—BrianconAx, MAT —The state of trade In this town has not altered for many weeks ; everybody is com plaining of the total absence of animation, and aB the reports are concurrent as to the fact of the orders on account of the home trade being much entailer than is usual at this time of the year . the country shopkeepers who are iu the hardware trade are making up their Mocks to a moderate extent only ; hence the 'Meknes& which manufacturers have to encounter ; but there Is no actual depreamon In any branch. In the foreign department btlat!res condor! comportthelylnaetirt tope- dilly as regards the continental breneticif it : • few ord ;Vs hive just been given out on amount of Eqpt, including one of some extent for railway which has gone to the Midland Wagon Company. Bather more is being done on account of the East Indies, and some other of the Eastern markets; also to Brazil and Cuba. The dulness experienced in the hardware trade of late lla shown in the Board of Trade returns for March ; the total value of the exports of hardware and cutlery in the month having been g 346,2011 against x 400,1199 last year. COTTON.—Llvnitroox, MAT 4.—We have had a good demand to-day, and a more steady market, at previous rates. The sales are 16,000 helm, of which 4,000 are for export and speculation. COTTON 00099.—Mordig6rga, MAT 4.—The market for yarn and cloth has been of a rather exciting character during the past week, but the oscillations in price have been too violent and risky to encourage much confidence amongst either buyers or sellers. After a decline which had lasted over months, and which last week had terminated In a sudden further fall of id. per lb., a reaction came of so sudden and violent a character that In less than a week cotton had recovered lid. per lb. Such changes involve great risk, and often considerable loss. and are very disastrous to a trade like this, in which for many years there was so very little alteration of prices, that those engaged in it could make their calculations ordinarily, though on a narrow profit, with something approaching to certainty. For the last six years It has approached more nearly to gambling than trading, and even the most motions then have been rui ne d by scores, whilst hundreds are brought to the verge or bankruptcy. The market attained its highest point In yarns and cloths on Tuesday. Since then there has been some slight relapse. Both oplanere and manufacturers bold with a good deal of tenacity to their advanced euotatlons, but buyers are in many instances able to do business at something short of the highest quotations, and it is almost needless to say that with so much cotton In prospect there is not much confidence in present prices holding. WOOLLEX.—LIMM. MAT t.—Then has bees a moderate attendance both of manufacturers and merchants at the coleared cloth hall this morning, and a alight Improvement may be said to have taken place In the transfer of goods. The= has been chiefly for plain cloths and heavy makes of coatings ; several parcels of dark shades and buff drab mixtures have changed hands as samples. Although the amount of Weiner dune has not reached anything like a satkdactory character, and the parcels which have been transferred have been small. a greater amount of activity has been evident, and the inquiries foe various claws of goods more numerous. There has been little done In wring (skim, and as the termbiation of the season is now at bawl, the transactions which take place most necessarily be of a hand-to-mouth character. The white market has been quiet. Ilairtima have not been in much request. beavers and other heavy makes have only been transferral as samples. There has not been any alteration in prices. WOOL AND WOESTED.—BRADIORD, MAT 4. —The better tone and greater armors reported on Thursday is maintained to the end of the week. The amount of business dune in wool is small, and confined to covering the Immediate necessities of spinners. There is great caution manifested at the present junc ture. Stocks in the hands pt staplers are low, and they are not disposed to increase them to any considerable extent. The re did demand and the near approach of clip tend to make staplers slow in replacing. Prices are a shade better than last week ; but amidst the gloom which then prevailed they were unusually low, if there were any sales to test them. There has lean rather more inquiry in worsted yarns, though sales are with difficulty effected at the prices of last week. Where an advance is sought business cannot be effected. There is still great want of confidence, and the export houses refrain entirely from specu lative purchases. In pieces there has been a slight impnive. meet, and the brighter weather of to-day is most hopeful. Some home machinate, having held aloof as as possible, have been obliged to opera.e, though they do so sparingly and cautiously, and offer prices which frequently are rejected. Both continental and American merchants are almost out of the market. The quotations are a shade better than last week. CORN —Carmanoa, MAT 4.-sir market was dull, without any charge In prices from last week. 1:AILLMII, MAY a.—There WAS ao Average Pupi of wheat small our market this morning, and a I supply of oats and barley.
