IF V SPORTING. -.- THE NEWILARKIT FIRST SPRING lIKETU4O. TO TIN =ROO Or TM ZIPSIOO. Nia,—Taking all thine into consideration, the backers of Buccaneer for the Two Thousand stood his " ereatching" quietly asough, the majority having taken the precaution to couple the Wizard with bun, and thus enlace the Nuttier to a certainty (7); but the latter having taken his departure on people begin to wonder at the outrunt dimity fat of two animals, hacked for • mint al messy during • period *stadia( over three months, "going" she simultaneously within • few days of the 1 JCIV. s o il were onnaoquently diacoutented. No min doubted the statement of the real cause of Buccaneer's withdrawal ; still, it del appear singular such a great horns should have nude a shutdeo.ock of ever since the betting on the me commenced, he having advanced and retreated nearly every alternate week up to the very lad and but that his noble owner was above suspicious wen severe comments might reasonably have been made eti such • circumstance. However, his lordship has been quietly rifting this liter. matter, while the "nobblors" thought all was over. and the Hoe. Admiral Row write. to the Lire that there las been a regular system of communication between pert'es •• performing" in London sal me consorted with the stable, and the dis missal of the latter proves something serious to have been discovered. It is to be hoped no false notions if delicacy will cause the circumstances of the case to be kept secret, for nothing would tend more to put down the system than a thorough exposure of all parties con cerned. and I have no doubt that in a few days the public will be mole aware how it was such a fierce cannonade was invariably playing upon the Buccaneer. No secret i. made of the cause of Wizard's decline, for it was generally known on Tueivbiy he had to go throu g h the mill next dey, and from the anxiety to lay against him on Wednesday evening, we can easily believe the report that he mashed nearer last than first. I have always expressed an ..iiioiou that he would not improve on his two-yrold form so as many of his opponents, and there is every reason t,.1.-lieve the stable now boasts more than one animal ow leciiir to him, although last year they did not dream of such a probability. The two days' meet ing at Emen was • great success, the field for the City and Suburimi having been larger than we can ex t. see for the Cheater Cup even; but the results of the principal contests having on ly affected events near at hind, an analysis of the nanniag would he out of place, the emplexicia of affair. for the Derby not being in the least slimed. no outsider having run Mfilciently well to prove formidable, as in the CIAO of Glenbuck last year ; and the revectable p..sition in the market Confectioner obtained by hasNC WOW ket victory he lost altogether, cutting up but modemely in both the great handicaps. The programme .4 the Newmarket " First" Spring Meetior- %mild it not be more consistent to call it the sscud -comes out with no new feature, for the free handl c.cps are virtually a failure, and, except the Two Thousand on Tuesday, the One Thousand and Two-year-old Plate on noonday, and the Newmarket Stakes on Friday, the five rind twenty item complete are but dull affairs, they not baring the merit of good entries even, however small the fields mar be.

This was a case stated under the 20th and 214 of Vic toria, cap. 43, by one of the metropolitan police magistrates. The defendant is one of the metropolitan police, and he was charged with refusing to take into custody • person found offending under the Rogue and Vagabond Act, the sth of Geo. IV. cap. $3. The complainant was one of the relieving officers of St. Saviour's, and he stated that on the 17th of November last he went to the house of a man awned Withers, whose wife had been obtaining relief in St. Saviour's, and he charged him with neglecting to support his wife, to which Withers replied, that not only was his wife able to rapport herself, inasmuch as she was earning 10e. • week, but she had no claim upon him, for she had taken to live with another man. Thereupon the com plainant called in the aid of the defendant and required him to take Withers into custody as being • rogue and vag• bead. This t►e defendant refused to do, and hence the charge spinet him. Yr. Collier, Q.C., now appeared to support a conviction, sad urged t►at under the 6th section of the act Withers had been found offending, and therefore the defendant d o have apprehended him. The Court, bow ever. LOlllO4 it would have been • clear extension of his authority had the constable apprehended Withers. Withers might have an excellent excuse for not supporting his wife, and therefore, unlike the case of • man mesa to pick • podost or strike another, he could not be said to be found offending. Appeal therefore allowed, with costa. INOwL7.B, APPELLANT—DICILINsON, RVIPONDICIT. - - • In this case there had been a conviction under the Mining Act for not properly ventilating a pit. Under the act it is the duty of the owner of the none to send a foreman before the commencement of work to ascertain if any gas was col lected in the pit. In the present instance the working at the pit was stopped on Saturday night, arid at the same time the bratticee by means of which the pit was ventilated were closed. OD the Monday morning the foreman went to see that the pit was ventilated before the men went down, and warn accompanied by some men. It was found that • large quantity of gas had collected, and the brattices were down. The question for the determination of the Court war—Are owners of mines obliged to keep their pita ventilated be tween Saturday night and Monday morning, the working of the pits being then stopped ? The Chief Justice—Surely owners of mines are not at liberty to expose the lives of those whom they send to examine the pita to danger? Kr. Justice Crompton—The pit cannot be considered to be closed merely because work te suspended during the in terval between Saturday night and Monday morning. Conviction therefore upheld. Mr. Maaisty, Q.C., appeared for the appellant. Mr. Campbell here made his appearance in court, and was I examined with respect to the fourth cheque for 271. 16.. 6d. which he had changed for Whiting, who he admitted was a stranger to him up to the time of three transactions. The course which he said he adopted was to send the cheques to the Bank of Eriglaad, where he himself kept an account, procure the cash, and hand the difference between the amount of his purchases and the cheque itself to the pri sone)* Whiting. Mr. Orridge said this was all the evidence he meant to trouble his worship with at present, and should now ask for a remand, which was granted. THE SCRATCHING OF BUCCANEER FOR THE TWO THOUSAND Admiral Ron. bee M4llO the following explanation re lative to the scratching of Buoceneer for thereto, Thousand: " Lord Portsmouth wishes rue to publish his answer to my letter, informing him I had wretched Buccaneer fur the Two Thousand Guinea. I consider that it would be paytog too great n compliment to the persons who have ttied to lit an odium on the noble lords decision. It is sufficient to say tout the horse was affected with surfeit, or heat lumps, which spread from his heck to his legs, consequently rest and plosic were indispensable. With respect to the unusual %,tri.iti,m of the odds 'gaunt the horse, it hes been aseerteonel that it was owing to an agent in the stable, in conmatinketion with certain bettors in London.

SIR,—I admire your stricture• on pugilism heartily ; they are worthy of your paper. I hate fighting as • science, cultivated in cold blood purposely to develop mere brute force, "Saxon pluck," and power of endurance. It is still more odious to me as a vehicle of betting and animal excitement among the aristocracy, and of course among the miserable mob which an sure to follow in the wake of the so called " Swells ;" but with all these objections fixed firmly in my soul— a man of figures and not of ilirta-1 own I have enjoyed the tribute and reception given to Tom Sayers in the Stock Exchange to-day. It was really • splendid sight, and worthy of a man who could, with hie left hand only and while suffering extreme pain from a disabled right arm, persist in contending with a compara tive giant, uninjured in every limb, and superior in almost every physical qualification. At the special solicitation of certain members of the Stock Exchange, Tom Sayers came to its immediate neigh bourhood this morning, to receive • purse of 100 guineas, subscribed for him by many of the body who desired to ex ' press in this way what the whole country feels, that his struggle against the American was the more noble because he was physically unequal, and that he has done much as an Englishman to honour the belt he wean. The purse was given him very quietly in a private office, but every avenue to it was blocked by • crowd directly the report circulated that the star of the prize ring was within sight. Tom received the offering of the purse gratefully, but most unostentatiously. He was moved, and only begged to be allowed "to go and thank the Stock Ex change." His wish was complied with. He came by the entrance the least used—every other doorway being crowded by expectant members. His appearance was the signal for a bunt of enthusiasm one rarely sees among the English people. The tremendous Tom, the all-enduring pugilist, was so overcome that his whole frame trembled.

The Stock Exchange are a much abused body, but they yield to none in really kind actions and patriotic senti ments. When Tom appeared on the table every bat was doffed, and three cheers given for him in • style that even our Queen, electrifying as her influence is from her virtues quite as much as from her exalted position, would have delighted to hear. The comparison, sir, would be in execrable taste but for the moral it teaches, that bravery in every shape is the legitimate worship of the English people, and that amid all the trickeries of foreign diplomacy and the calculating aggressions of the French Empire, England would, as of old, become the greater as her enemies in creased, and raise up many like Tom Sayers to defend her prestige to victory, from the hour that her shores were menaced, or her just rights invaded in any quarter.— I am, tee., A MIMBEK OF THE STOCK EXCHANGE. April 21. THE FIGHT POR THE CHAMPIONSHIP. The Times continues to publish letters on the above subject. Today we have the following from one of the principal, Mr,-1 see by your article of Saturday last that you misunderstand my wishes, and it does me great injustice. I have no differences to settle with kr. Sayers, except such as I tried to settle with him on the Itith mat. ; and instead of being called u ' boy,' I ought to be termed a baby if, after having come so far, and not having got a settlement, I should be willing to relinquish my purpose for a few good natured pats on the back, and being told I am a Sue fellow. 1 have redivide great many anonymous letters since Tues day h at, asking me if lam not ashamed of myself—a great know like ms—to come over here to whip a little man like Tom Sayers. All I have to say to that is, that under ordinary circumstances 1 would not think of sending a challenge to • man of Sayers's size ; but England thinks km big enough to defend the belt ; I want it, and I cannot get it except through him. The enclosed letter, which I sent to the editor of Bell, Life when 1 heard they intended to call in a surgeon to name a day before which Sayan «odd not finish the pending affair between le, will show my position in the matter ; and as Beers Life hie not thought proper to publ ish it, you will do me a great kind. sees Ls kiting the Eng lish people heir what I have got to say. I wish to add t hat if the late meeting is not to be re sumed, and the belt is not to come to roe fur what has already taken place, I claim to be Scat on the list to meet Buyers spin for the next chance to conquer it.—Yours wag respectfully, " J. C. HUNAN. " April 22." TO THE FDTTOII OF EZLL'S LvL " Sir,—Not having been able TOObiainlions you, as referee, • final decision upon the fight of Tuesday last, I desire to demand, through you, a new meeting within the pment week. I make this demand from haying been in &mod that it has been suggested on your part I should give Yr. Sayers sufilcient time to recover from certain injuries received by him during his encounter with me. Now, sir, while I am willing to accommodate him in any proper way, I must not be unmindful of my own rights. I ► also received injuries, but I bargained for them ; and I put it to you, sea man of honour, whether, if I had been deprived, through the effects of the said battle, of my eyesight or the use of my arm (as in the C.l.e of Brettle.when disabled by Sayer), you would have made Sayers wait for me for any length of time that might he dictated by my private doctor? " When this match was made tae date for the battle woe the 16th inst., or as soon an we could get to fight ; and, according to the rill,, if the battle should be interrupted,it was my understanding, and I believe it is the law, that we should fight within the week. We did meet according to our contract, the battle was said to he unfinished, and I am prejau-cd to renew it at any moment within the lawful ' limn. If Sayers is not, ou account of injuries received from me, and cannot meet me according to the rules of manly opposition, I demand and claim that he resign to me the belt, which he is not, according to the rules of the prime ring, entitled to retain. " Hoping to receive an answer from you before this week expires, stating your views in full,—l am yours respectfully, "J. C. HEENAN. "P.3.—You will please to understand that I do not wish to compel Mr. &yet, to fight, bemuse he is represented to be in a thudded Kate ; but I wish to obtain what I think I have already won, and which I will cheerfully hand hack wheuever he or any person elm thinks Le can take it from me.

Mr. Lawrence now addressed the court on behalf of the bankrupts, and referred to the long period during which the bankrupts had been in business. They were both respecta bly connected, and had begun with • capital of 2,0001. ; all their suiteceaents were favourable. Their misfortunes were attributable to their connection with Todd and Co. ; that firm had been the apes tree to the bankrupts. The manner in which Francis had given his evidence on various occasions had excited the dim pleasure of the court ; but there was no reason to doubt that he had now told the whole truth. The accounts had given much trouble, owing to the imper fect way in which the books had been kept ; but there was no pretence for saying that this had been done for the pur pcesi of concealing the state of their affairs. Mr. Stanafield, the official assignee, 'stated that 1,2771. had been realised, out of which 6701. had been expended in ' costa and damages in an action aptinat Messrs. Salt. Mr. Lawrence submitted that the bankrupts were not anawenibie for the result of that action. They had given up assets which had iealked upwards of 1,0601. His Honour deferred judgment. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. -Apiurr. 21. Sittings in Banco.—(Before Lord Chief Justice Erie and Justices Willes, Byles, end Ke►ting.) OALKLET C. OODDILEN. - THE ACTION AGAINST THE OCIM ANIMA:SADO& The plaintiff in this case was a gentleman possessed of property in Yorkshire, and the defendant was at the time in question ambassador for the ex-King of Oude in this country. The action was to recover the amount of a twelve months' bill for 6,500/., which bore the acceptance of the defendant, and which bill the plaintiff had dtscounted and pad 11,0001. for. The defendant denied his liability, alleging that the acceptance had been obtained from hint in blank by • Mr. Chard, with the understanding that it was to be Med up for 100/. only, and that it had been fraudulently Ned up for 6,500 f. ; and further that the plaintiff took the bill with notice of these circumstances. At the trial the jury found that the plaintiff's attorney had taken the bill for him under circumstances which amounted to notice, and thereupon • verdict was entered for the defendant upon two pleas raising the above-mentioned defence. Subse quently, however, a rule was obtained among other things to enter • verdict for the plaintiff upon these pleas, upon the grounds that there was no evidence in support of them, and that the finding of the jury amounted in fact to • find ing for the plaintiff. To-day the matter came before the court upon cause being shown against this rule being made absolute. Mr. E. James, Mr. Hawkins, and Mr. Coleridge appeared to show (5111.3 ; and Mr. M. Chambers, Mr. Serjeant Bal. lantine and Mr. Mummers to support the rale. The case was not concluded when the court rose. 'COURT OF EXCHEQUER.-APRIL 21.

Mr. Edwin James and Mr. Prentice were counsel for the plaintiff ; Mr. Serjeant Parry and Mr. Henry James repre sented the defendant. This action originated out of a quarrel in a p ublic-house, both the parties being publicans. The plaintiff keeps the Custom House at Woolwich, and the defendant is the land lord of the Plough, at Lewisham. The plaintiff had sold the goodwill of the latter to the defendant for 7601., of which a small portion remained due, and for which he had given bills. On the plaintiff going into the Plough one evening, the defendant bad, as was alleged, used most abusive lan guage to him, accusing him of having played with loaded dux—the alleged slamior in the present action. The defence was that both the parties were intoxicated, and that the plaintiff had been equally abusive. The jury, after inquiring from his lordship what would carry costa, found a verdict for the plaintiff—damages, 5/. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.—Aran. 21. (Before Yr. Commissioner Foul)lamina.)

COTTON GOODS.—MANCIISSTER, Aran 21.—The busi ness of the week has been unimportant, but the advice@ from Calcutta and Bombay have improved the hello; amongst buyers a little, and shirting, and T cloths for those markets are rather steadier, with a better demand. These cloths were one to five and six wawa dearer at Bombay at last dates. The state of the money market is also consi dered a little more favourable to operations. At the same time the cotton market affects business a little unfavourably by inducing buyers in the market generally to bold back for easier prices. The quantity of cotton that has come forward is estimated at four million bales, and the crop is now gene rally estimated at 4} millions and upwards. The cotton market has rather a more direct effect, however, upon yarns than cloths, and many spinners, having shown an anxiety to sell this week, have been constrained to take rather easier rates. The Germans have been making more inquiries, but these have not hitherto led to much business. There are a considerable number of unfinished contracts still on hand, especially for cloths, and these help to keep up the steadi ness of prices. WOOLLEN.—Lanne, APRIL 21.—We have had a rather better market this morning. About the usual number of buyers attended the cloth halls, but they operated with more spirit than they have done lately, and consequently an improved business was done. Ordinary cloths in better demand, but summer fabrics had only a moderate sale. ORN.—Cawalmos, Aram 2L—Our market was dull to-day, with a short supply, particuliwly of barley. Wheat 450. to 52t.

'Western', APRIL 21.-The stands at the corn exchange were not so well supplied with wheat as might have been supposed, farmers being evidently desirous of holding their stooks even at the presort advanced rates. At the com mencement of the market as much as 4s. per quarter ad vance was in many cases demanded for prime wheats ; but this extravagant demand only checked business. Later in the day, however, a fair trade was done at an advance of 2a. per quarter on best samples of white and rod, while in ferior and secondary lots were hardly saleable at former ' rates. There was a moderate demand for barley, and some lots for seeding purposes were taken off at slightly improved rates ; malting kinds were quoted as high as 45e., and grinding at 25e. to 311 s. The price of oats is still high, and as holders do not press their sales the value of that article continues to advance ; some lots for seeding purposes realised 295. per quarter. Neither beans nor peas were in much request, but there is no alteration to report in the price of those descriptions of grain. WIRBECH, APRIL 21.-The weather still continues very cold, and little progress is made in vegetation. The supply of wheat at our market to-day was not large, and farmers not being willing to make any concession in price, but little business resulted at the rates of last week.

YORK, Aran. 21. -At our corn market to-day there was a tolerable good attendance of farmers and factors, but the show of wheat was by no means abundant. Farmers asked an advance of Is. to 25., which buyers would not give, and last week's prices were ultimately made. White descrip tions realised 525. to 565. ; red, 50s. to Ms. per 36 stone. In barley a moderate share of business was tnursacted, end select qualities (which were scarce) moved off at prices quite as high as those of the week precedin , namely 39a. to 44,. per qr. ; secondary lota were also in demaod and fully sustained former rates, 30s. to 345. per 30 stone. Oats were hardly en average show, and priors may be termed la , favour of the seller, samples making 24a. to 28s. per 24 stone.

Farmers began by askin g extravagant prices, which checked business, but sales uhi n-uttely took place at about le. per qr. advance. Wheat, 48e. to 58.. per qr. ; barley, 38e. to 42a.; oats, 275. to 33e. WATERMRD, APRIL 21.—The weather this week has been cold and severe, and vegetation m►kes scarcely any progress. Supplies of home-grown grain to our market continue on a limited scale, and we have no arrivals from abroad. The trade in consequence has been characterised by great firmness, with grad ual ly advancing prices for all arti. clew. Farmers' wheat we note Is. 6d. to 2a. per barrel dearer, and foreign is held for a similar enhancement. Bar. ley is much wanted, and both malting and grinding are difficult to be had at ticl. to la. per barrel over last week's rates. In oats a considerable business has been done, at a further improvement of 6d. per barrel, and sellers now ask more money.

I BIRMINGHAM, APRIL 21.—There is still a good deal of languor about the trade of this town, although a little more 1 activitAms manifested itself in the course of the week ; this has been chiefly on account of the home trade, the foreign orders being still scanty. The manufactories have been going not much less than full time this week ; but orders are very closely worked up. The French treaty continues to occupy a good deal of attention. It is now quite apparent that unless a classification of hardware goods can be made, and a suitable' scale of duties fixed, little advantage will arise from the treaty. With the view to such "dud. Bestial," the council of the Chamber of Commerce have invited the co-operation of manufacturers, and a meeting took place yesterday afternoon. The deputation which attended at the Board of Trade a few days ago detailed the result of the interview. It appeared that from what Mr. Cobden said, it was evident that he considered tt impossible to obtain a tariff of ad ra/orem duties ; the Em peror was strongly in favour of specific duties, and the case was seemingly not one of what English manufacturers would like, but what they could get. If there were particular cases in which tel solemn duties were absolutely necessary, from specific duties being impracthable, then Birmingham manufacturers must go over to Paris and support the can- Mill/1011011 in fighting the battle. One point, however, was worth mention. Mr. Cobden distinctly told them that the thirty per cent. alluded to in the treaty would only be levied in exceptional cam*, and that the French government had no wish to tax hardware so high, the probability being that they would go as low as ten per cent. in many cases. Mr. Wagner, as one of the deputation, mid that Mr. Cobden mentioned several facts which might not be gene rally known. The French government were about to take eighty or a hundred millions of francs off their colonial produce—coffee, auger, and other articles—and not having too much money they were anxious that our goods should COMO into France in order that the revenue may be kept up. Looking at the recent appointment to office of free traders, and other things which had occurred since the treaty was published, Mr. Cobden also firmly believed that ere long free trade would b • carried out by France. To show the difficulties attending the clemification of Bir mingham goods for specific duties, Mr. Wagner mentioned that when at the Board of Trade, on Monday, he produced German silver spoons ranging from 2s. to 14.. per dozen, and asked Mr. Ogilvy (one of the commissioners who would visit Birmingham) to classify them according to their value. Though that gentleman was one of the most experienced officials connected with theCustorn-house be failed in the attempt at classification. He (Mr. Wagner) also showed them a sample of steel pens selling at 11. 12s. lid. the 100Ibs., and another sample which sold at 461. 10e. the 100 the. Mr. Ogilvy cautioned them against trying to get too many articles exempted from specific duties, and pointed out that there was no tariff exclusively ad tvaorem except the Ame rican—England itself charging the same duty on tea ranging from 7d. to 3s. a pound, and on tobacco ranging from 3e. to 12s. Mr. Cobden had given the deputation to understand that where the duties were at present under 30 per cent. they world in no case be raised. The result of this meeting was, that an effort is to be made to classify the various articles of manufacture, and if possible, to adjust a rate of duty suitable to price and such classi fication- SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE.

THE GREAT EAATERN. —The directors have ap pointed Captain Vine Hall to the command of the great ship. A more flttiug successor to the late Captain Harrison could not well have been selected, and he is an officer who possesses many of those qualities which gained for the late commander the high psytion which he occupied in the navul profession. Captain Hall has had a large amount of experience in the conno.mil of ships of the fi rst class in the Meditenatiean, South America, Australia, and Imlia. His conduct in connexion with the Crosma, of 2,700 tons, which upon arrival at Sydney was found to be frightfully leaky, many of the plates having started, gained him the approbation and friendship of the late Mr. Brunel. There was no dock into which he could put his ship, and with great perseverance he succeeded in forming a basin, by driving two rows of piles round the vessel, filling up the space between, then pumping the water out, and by this menus he was enabled to repair and bring home the ship with a most valuable cargo. When the Croons, with troops and stores for the Crimea, was 'destroyed by tire off Genoa, his conduct received the highest approbation from the Admiralty. As captain of the Gelden Fleece, with troops for India, he mode the quickest voyage MI record between England and Calcutta.
