Loudon : Parker, eon, sad Boom Ws MUSIC. CRYSTAL PALACE. The directors of this establishment have assessed a wise of "Opera oosearte," twelve in nurnbar, to take piece weekly during the summer months ; that the aervioes of Mlle. Titiens andilignorGiuglini are secured for each el these performances ; that arrangements have two mods with the lames of Covent Oarden for the appearance of either Madame Oriel or Madame llialan-Carvalho Mesa el them ; and moreover, that the company's band has bees ocewiderebly augmented, and a full and mafficieut chores wined. The first of these concerts took place yesterday ; and, I judging from it as a specimen, we have no doubt that the series will be attractive and nocessful. To amateurs who are la the habit of frequenting the Italian Opera these per , fonsammewill present no novelty ; but it is not for sash pm , seas that they are designed—it is for the general public', for the thousands of lovers of music to whom the opera is as omniscient of rare occuireoce, and who eagerly avail themselves d much opportunities of seeing the great slam and hearing the beautiful music of the Italian siege. An ample opportunity of this kind was given yesterday. Titian@ sang the air, " COM' a belle" from Lanais Burvia ; Giuglini, "Spirt* genii," from Le /raeorita, and "Tu m'arui," from La Zamora, (Safes BOAtllliaM Girl) ; and Miolan-Carvalho " Voi ohs sopate," from Figoro. There were two fine concerted pieces ;—the "Miners" from the Troratert, sung by Titieus, Giuglini, and the chorus ; and the trio " Qual rebate" from the Leetbardi, sung by Titian, Giuglini, and Owner. There were only two instrumental pieces ; the overture to Le Sieye de CorietAe, with which the concert been, and a violin solo of Paganini's, played by M. Ole Hall. Such was the ooncart of yesterday ; completely what it profaned to be, an Opera Concert, and well calculated to earns the enjoyment of a trip to Sydenham.

Prose start to finish the meeting was marked by the most gratifying success. Not mile was the supply of sport most abundant, but the proceeding were of • character to create great interest, and to exercise a lasting influence over future movements in the turf market. Thus the running for the Two Thousand and One Thousand has caused important changes in the betting on the Derby and Oaks, whilst the results of the minor races have in certain instances diverted the operations on the Chester Cup and other handicaps into new channels. The changes in the betting have been duly recorded in the list of quotation which was appended es& duty to our report of the racing. Tb• programme of the week's sport contained 48 engage ments. Of these 41 were brought to an issue, commend ing, in the aggregate, 1:46 starters. Newmarket, too, achieved • triumph which excited the liveliest gratification, not only amongst the inhabitants of the town, but amongst those members of the sporting community who firmly believe that the Heath is "the dank ground of ruing," where only the Isthmian games can be orojoyed to pedal don. The " provincial" horses had little chance with the home-tramed animals for the 48 events which were ap- pointed for decision. 30 were pieced to the credit of the Newmarket !miners, end amongst that number must be reckoned all the principal stakes of the meeting, the Two Thennad *Anglo Joseph Dawson's etable,the One Thounnd to Bedeck's, and the Newmarket Two-yeareid Plate to Higbee's. Lord fitamford's successes created great entb*- dean, for he is • munificent patron of the tore, maiia ttmenieing eetabliahment, and exareising may timiy li Z seta of charity amongst the poor. In addition to &W . :Thousand—the net value of whkii was, by the way, Vat —his lordship's list of triumphs included • SOL phis (Stamped, id. Additional.) ETWOPE ACE oa the Monday ; the Coffee-room Stakes, vales 1501., as the Tuesday ; two sweepstakes, of the respective values of 1501. and IZI., and a 50/. plate, on the Wednesday ; a handicap sweepstakes, value 1101., on the Thursday ; and a sweepstakes, value 751., on the Friday • making the sum total dl ord Stanford's winniup in stakes during the five days 4,0601. The most succissful jockeys during the week were A. Edwards, who won seven races, including the Two Thousand, and G. Fordham who scored three wise, including the One Thousand. T he settling ham bees of a satisfactory nature. Several heavy losers, who took "liberties" with I)iopbantua end placed too great a re liance on the abider rumours which were circulated about the hone, are reported, but all outstanding accounts are likely to be promptly collected. Aftm. ea busy a week it would be unjust to the officials not to acknowledge the regularity with which the business was conducted. Mr. Manning was, as usual, in constant attendance in early morning and late at night in discharging his duties at the Jockey Club rooms. Mr. Clark, the judge, was cool and collected, and Mr. 51•Ce..ege seemed to have established quite a friendly understanding between himself and the jockeys, the recent cues of " sus pension" having doubtless contributed to so desirable a result. The weather was delightfully fine until Friday, when dark lowering clouds threatened rain, and a boisterous wind raised clouds of dust. Whilst the visitors were ea the heath no wet fell, but they reached the town ins drenching shower. The meeting, as we have already stated, was brought to a moat satisfactory conclusion, and it was agreed as all 'ides that never, during a " First Spring," did Newmarket present so gay and thronged an appointees • and the triumphs of Diophantus and Nemesia were au Tu'enday and Thursday evenings cele brated by merry peals of bells, Special trains, most acesen roodatragly provided by the Eastern Counties Railway Company, conveyed the Lewd= and Manchester divisions to their respective destiontime is excellent time.

THE ILEESTON MURDER. _ _ -•-- In our yesterday's impression we gave a brief account of the mur. of • man named Joseph Smith, of Ilkeston, Derbrhire, by his ion, George Smith, who blew his father's brains out with a pistol. We now give some further particulars. It appears that the murderer purchased a read, with which the murder was perpetrated, at Mr. Daniel Vrebster's, general dealer, and pawnbroker, Climber- Nottingham. On Wednesday afternoon, asked for o' s tl e tr, Smith went to Mr. Webster's shop and asked for a pistol, stating that be wished to purchase one. Smith being a stranger Mr. Webster wired him what he wanted it for, to which Smith replied that he wanted it "to fly pigeons with when they were racing." Mr. Webster was satisfied with Smith's answer, and accordingly supplied him with a pistol, for which be paid 4s. Smith then asked him if he could furnish him with powder and caps, to which Mr. Webster replied in the negative, adding that his neighbour, Mr. Carr, on the other aide of the street, could supply him with all he required. Accordingly, Smith went there and asked for halfpenny worth of caps, which were supplied to him by Mrs. Carr. He put one of the caps on the pistol, and was in the act of letting it off, when she told him she was afraid of fire arms, and if be wanted to let it off he mod go into the street. He then went outside the shop and And the cap off, after which he returned to Mrs. Carr, and asked for • halfpenny worth of powder. She told him that she did not make that quantity, but he could have a pennyworth if be thought proper. lie replied, " Well, give me enough for one charging ; I want to tr 7 the pi s t o l. She accordingly put • small quantity in a pesos of paper, and he threw down • penny for it and went away. He then went home, and, it is mid, called his father up and deliberately shot him. Mr. Smith immediately fell dead, and his son was soon after wards taken into custody. While he was being apprehended he asked for a carving.knife, stating that lie would have revenge on the body of his father, adding that, when be was fihanged, if his limbs trembled, his n ame was not George nith, We stated yesterday that the murderer wrote a tote in .lead pencil to his sweetheart, at Belton, on Wednesday, In whisk Is* said he wee afraid his father would make away with himself. This turns oat to be correct, for on Thurs. day evening Detective Davis went to Belton, bad an inter. view with the girl, Ellen Con, who at first denied having reseieed a letter, but afterwards produced the following, written in lead pencil, which she said she had received from the murderer that (Thursday) morning : " fly dear • •,—I told my father this morning, and he is like a madman, and I am sure he will make away with himself ; but, Ellen, never mind ; you will soon become my wife, and then all this bother will be over. Please send me word when you are at yonr grandmother's, and you must come and meet me at the station on Sunday morning : be there at 8 o'clock. So good-bye, sweetheart.
