It has been a subject of wonder, IT' has puzzled many a brain to explain how this has been ,jought about. Yet when we are acquainted with a few facts W'iloerning the food, our wonder will cease. A few days since, „ gentleman wrote, stating that he had a horse which was a % Per fect bag of bones." He tried all kinds of things to get ofeirallimal into condition, but in vain. He then bought some horley's food ; and he says the effect was wonderful. The :Ilse rapidly grew fat, and in the course of a few weeks had 4 , , .:!,iped no less than 12 stones. Again we find at the late agri ontral shows at Birmingham, Cardiff, dm., the animals which rFied off' the highest prizes had been partly fed with Thor -8 food for cattle. Such facts speak for themselves, and we 'i re forced to the conclusion that its celebrity arises solely ,rofn its own intrinsic merits, and the great demand for it can proceed alone from the good opinion and testimony of those wno have tried it.

The above Company is formed for the purpose of conduct ing this-old-established hotel, long and favourably known as Feuillade's, and then patronised by many families of distinc tion, situate in the Opera Colonnade, Charles-street, Hay market, a lease of which has been obtained on very advan tageous terms. The situation is, without exception, the best for the purpose in London, taking into account its central position, proximity to the Opera, theatres, and places of public amusement, and ready approach to the Houses of Parliament, clubs, and prin cipal squares and thoroughfares of the western metropolis. As an instance of the success attending . properly managed enterprises of this description, it may be stated that the Great Western Hotel, which has. been established since 1854, has attained a success far surpassing the most sanguine ex pectations of its projectors—having paid dividends of over 30 per cent. on the capital employed, besides carrying over a eon siderable amount towards a reserved Hind. The Ground Floor of the premises will be used as a Restau rant, capable of dining 600 persons daily. The upper part will be used for the Hotel Department, comprising a coffee room, private rooms, and about 60 bed-rooms, and in both departments fixed moderate charges will be the rule. Applicants for shares will be required to pay to the bankers of the Company, or to the Directors, a deposit of 10s. per share on the number of shares applied for ; and in the event of the Directors allotting to the applicant a less number than applied for, the amount paid in will be appropriated towards the deposit of .£2 per share, payable ott those allotted ; should no allotment be made to the applicant, the money lodged at the bankers will be returned free of deduction. Applications for shares to be made in the annexed form. Prospectuses and further information may be obtained at the temporary offices of the Company. Form of Application for Shares.

It also constitutes a certain cure for Scurvy, Scrofula, and all Cutaneous Eruptions, removing and expelling in its course all corruptions and impurities from the• vital stream, as altogether to eradicate the virus of disease, and expel it with the insensible perspiration, through the medium of the pores of the skin and urine, and is a never-failing remedy for that class of disorders which unfortunately the English Physician treats with Mercury, to the inevitable de struction of the patient's constitution, and which all the sar saparilla in the world cannot restore.

BY .A M D., 37, BEDFORD SQUARE, LONDON, Matriculated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Hono rary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Li centiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c. The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fear ful consequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Manhood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condi tion, and who are conscious of having hazarded the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is en titled. It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are principles of personal management which cannot be violated without incurring vrievons penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of inconsiderate self indulgence, how those penalties may be mitigated, how the eting'of their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and, above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.

After the ;Roman Empire had gone a certain length, new men made their appearance from the forests of Germany and elsewhere--our ancestors ; and though the world's wisdom theretofore had kept them down as of small knowledge and little account in the transactions of mankind, they brought with them new and im proved ideas of both particular and international law, of portions of which we arc still in possession' of the benefit. A move, internal, of the same na ture, is wanted now. The angels that have been bound in the great river Euphrates, or wherever the place may be, want letting loose, that the world may have cognisance of their - quality. There will be better. stuff in them than in some of the old. Nobody who looks abroad upon the earth can fail to see that there is something going on like a re ceding of the tide of civilisation, which a new im pulse is wanted to restore. In all directions the' brutal part of man has been taking the ascendant. National -affairs are • conducted on principles of avowed and unblushing felony. We axe 'the work ing slaves of all manner of filibusters, and of high waymen not likely to be hanged. The old prin ciples of international law and honesty arc set at nought; and parliaments are dissolved for resisting gross and unmistakeable larceny, which is only not petty because the agents are strong. An empire has just been thrown away, through inability to keep a compact with enlisted soldiers, and the de sire to massacre an army on the pet ground of an cient persecutors long since in their own place, for refusing to take " swine's flesh" into their mouths. In the course of this, depths of disgrace have been enacted, such as the old universe never dreamt of, and nothing but the new could have co-existed withal. All evil things fancy they have heard a call to general resurrection; as was the -West minster boy's inscription on a monument, they should "be still if they're wise." The slave trade is upon us again, alive and hearty. A man stood up the other day in one of our great commercial towns, and boasted., that he always thought slavery a good thing. The wonder is thltt he did not declare for cannibalism ! Chambers of commerce petition Parliament to buy up the stock of decayed buccaneers ; and literary societies turn out to do them honour, and ask the roasters of Arabs to meet. Free trade will have to be fought over again: at all events protection is up and doing, even in the colonies which complained so loudly when they lay under the rod. International law is laughed at ; line-of-battle ships are the only coun sellors ; and those who ought to know better are too much tarred with the same brush to interfere. In the church is a schism for going back to all which the public, who gave the revenues, had aban doned. In home events, the extent to which the brutal element has gainesl ground is visible,.parti cularly in the murders of young women by what are called their followers. The principle instilled among our youth is that for everything that goes wrong, a discharge of gunpowder is the cure ; 7t is only the public practice translated into private life. Your soldiers break open houses in the streets ; as why should they not, when this was what they en listed to do ? All these point to the fact that we want new blood among us ; • and knowing where it is, we shall hardly fail to get it. On one point be of good cheer. You are in the same position for success that others have been before you. , As then, there is disunion among your opponents. Men are with you whom you do not think of, and will not show themselves till the time comes. It was ever so. In the meanwhile, go on. With earnest wishes for your progress, I remain yours, very sineerely, T. PERRONET HomesoN. The CHAIRMAN, in opening the proceedings, said,—lt is pretty well understood that we are to have a Reform Bill shortly, and that a Reform Bill will be introduced under the auspices of the present Government. That I believe is admitted on all hands. We have therefore deeined it necessary to convene this meeting, in order that you might ex press Tour opinion as to what we complain of under the existing state of things, and of the remedies that we should suggest in the forthcoming Reform BilL I shall, gentlemen, as briefly as possible, eaumeratc for the benefit of Lord Derby and his Government the complaints that we have of the existing state of things. In the first place, we assume that the po pulation of the United Kingdom amounts to about thirty millions of human beings, and out of this population not more than 800,000 persons are en trusted with the electoral franchise. The other part of the population we conceive to be unjustly treated, inasmuch as they are treated as aliens in the land + of their nativity, and might as well be denizens of New Zealand as natives of England. We contend that the present qualifications of voters are entirely erroneous, 'ignoring. as they do the citizen entirely, and vesting the franchise either in material wealth or in position. The .£5O tenants at will, the £lO copyholders, the 40s. freeholders, the £lO a-year rent payers, and the members of universities—these are all the respective qualifications necessary to enable the limited number of persons to vote who are now entrusted with the elective franchise. Now, in order to remedy such a state of things, and in order that a correct principle may be established for the guidance of those who are entrusted with the drawing out of the forthcoming Reform Bill, we suggest—nay, we insist—that any Reform Bill that would be acceptable to the people of Northunt berland and Durham must embody the whole adult male population. We of course except the recipients .of the poor rates, inasmuch as they have ceased to be useful members of society ; and we also except the criminal population, as they arc at war with all government whatever. I trust that we have ren dered ourselves . sufficiently clear to my Lord Derby, and that he will understand us perfectly that no measure short of that will give satisfaction to the people of Newcastle. (Applause.) Gentlemen, I be lieve I may say in addition, that an extension of the franchise to the point which I have named would be injurious to the . people instead of advantageous, unless that concession was associated with the bal lot. We therefore firmly, but respectfully, insist upon Lord Derby giving us the ballot along with increased suffrage. Now, gentlemen, it is quite pos sible that my Lord Derby and his Government. may make the concessions I have named; indeed, I observe from a paragraph in to-night's Times, se lected from some remarks by an intimate relative of a subordinate of the present Government, that we were tohave a Reform Bill that must necessarily give satisfaction to the people ; that the peasantry were about to be enfranchised, and that it was their duty to see that the peasant part of the population was instructed ; but I have a strong apprehension that there will be some trickery had recourse to in order that they may neutralise their just conces sions to the demands of the people. I would say to Lord Derby, and to those associated with him, that we must have no trickery. (Applause). To use his lordship's very expressive, but not very elegant phrase, which he applied to the reformers of the last Reform Bill, " We must have no thimble-rig ging in this affair." (Applause.) In order that I may be perfectly understood, I will first illustrate from the existing state of things the checks which the Whigs established when the Reform Bill was instituted in 1833. I will just take two of the counties. For instance, I will just take the West Riding of Yorkshire. It comprises, I believe, a popu lation'ef nearly one and a half millions, at all events, more than a million and a half of that population are entrusted with. the elective franchise. Let us see how the West Riding, with the vast population distinguished for industry and enterprise, is check mated by the small county of Rutland. Rutland has a population of somewhere about 23,000, only 1,650 votes are registe re d. Y ou see i n a di v i s ion in the House of Commons the two members for Rut land neutralise and checkmate the two members for the West Riding of Yorkshire. Let us look again at the boroughs of Manchester, Liverpool, and Glas gow. These boroughs contain in the aggregate a po pulation of somewhere about 1,100,000 souls. But of that number between 50,000 and 60,000 arc en trusted with the electoral franchise. Mark the way how these boroughs, distinguished by their enter prise, are checkmated by three boroughs contempt ible in all those things that the other boroughs arc celebrated for. I will take the boroughs of Wells, Knaresborough, and Harwich. Each of these send two representatives to Parliament. Their aggregate population does not amount to above 15,000 or 16,000 souls ; and the 926 electors checkmate Man chester, Liverpool, and Glasgow. You see in a division the 'Vest Riding of Yorkshire is check mated by the small county of Rutland. Glasgow is checkmated by Knaresborough , Manchester by Harwich, Liverpool by Wells. Now, we must have none none of these checkmatings in then e new Reform o the e pp orino Bill. We must have members apportioned u la tion, because it will be, a barren achievement, unless em e nt th ere is en if we had universal suffrage is a fair apportionment a ndbiosf the Government popu l population. o I p h r o o p ve e my Lord Der true to themselves. In conclusion the speaker ex pressed his confidence in the present Government, ' o clieving, as he did, that more concessions had been made under the auspices of the Tory Governments of the last 30 years than had been made by the Whigs. Mr. TAYLOR, moved the first resolution in the opinion Of this meeting, the present restricted franchise deprives a large number of our fellow- PRICE 4 D • STAMPED, SD. countrymen of their just electoral rights ; entails ' on the nation bad legisletion,financial extravagance, and an irresponsible foreign policy ; and demands a radical reform in the representation of the people in Parliament, based on manhood suffrage, and vote by ballot." In the course. of a lengthy speech, h e said it depended in a great measure upon the con stituencies throughout the kingdom to say what the coming Reform Bill should be. There cannot be much doubt that Government would like to give the people a Reform Bill with as much appear ance and as little reality] as might be—as much show of concession, with a little reality of power transferred, would be what they would like. They would like to play the trick which it was alleged the Whigs played in 1831, to lose as little aristo cratic power as possible, and let the little come, if possible, from the Whig boroughs and constituen cies. (Applause.) What they wanted in the coun try was plain and simple—a full, free, and fair re presentation of the people of this country. (Loud applause.) They wanted the removal of the dis- Natrd g :eoo r fmt a puew c aol bl e yi:tea w hftelraa h eto: se i hfe c :c h st hlhanw a aaed t ‘thv t hf a sobaa c srbi attached nru e l arte d devopp t yfba o rri er:t3ismgrhi representation tnl e eaaeamtn ) r oNN h s; who t situation efe a v ytdi, the distributionrnne eopoterl wantedoin a calledlget ohtnaoe rote for Il fo a r ve e b v u er t y little voice in. They demanded, then, Englishman—(loud cheers) —not par ticular amount of brick and mortar, but because lie was an Englishman. (Loud applause.) They wanted universal suffrage. (Loud cheers.) It should be clearly understood that whatever was given, if short of the reality they meant to ask, could lead to no peace and no. satisfactory solution of the matter. They wanted the ballot. He was not very enthusiastic in regard to the ballot. He did not look upon it ' as a panacea for all political short comings. At the same time he did look upon it as a temporary necessity in many places. No.man can but be aware that to profess to give a man the freedom of a vote in--a case - where he is not able to exercise that vote, could but be a mockery, and., therefore, when necessary, and for as long as neces sary, they demanded the ballot. They demanded, he apprehended, a very great shortening of the duration of parliaments. They wanted it not merely because they' required a much greater - and more frequent reference between a member and his con stituency, but because that frequent reference would be the very best obstacle to bribery, because it would be next to impossible, •in his opinion, for a member with the largest intention to bribe, to go on bribing, if annual parliaments, or, at most, triennial parli a m en t s , were the law of l the land. They required also a very great equalisation of the electoral districts, as had been so very distinctly stated by the chairman. Anything but that was a mere mockery. They had obtained one point—the abolition of the property qualification ; but he appre hended they required some machinery by which the principle involved in that which he took to be - the right of any man to choose any other man ,he pleased to sit in the Commons House of Parliament, would be carried out, and by which a sprinkling, at any rate, of the working men of this country would be enabled to sit in the Commons' House of this country. (Applause.) Whether that should be done out of the national funds or whether it should be done by the votes of the constituencies,was amere detail not necessary to be entered into at that time. They claimed, then, a new national . government — a policy of government and legislation which should embrace within it all the powers that Englishmen could boast of. They needed them especially for their home and foreign affairs. In civil matters, eccle siastical matters, and everything, it was essential that there should be a basis of honesty, efficiency, and economy. The people had no longer 'any con fidence in the action of either section of the aristo cracy. There was too much tendency to enthusiasm about the Derby administration. There had been a natural reaction at the abomination in which Lord Palmerston and the Whigs were held, and it had taken into favour Lord Derby and his " squad." This was the very trick that had been played year after year, each party had had its turn, and the country had been disgusted. They 'Mist have nothing more of this for the future. Let the old parties be broken up, until they get a broad line of those who wanted to go on and those who wanted to stand still. If they had not Much hope fronithe old leaders of the party, it became them to look to what they had to hope for in the new party, if they had any, or in the leaders, if they could see them. The party who pattered about peace at any price could not be the leaders of this country.- The party that could repudiate any increase of the defences of this country could never represent the nationalism which lived in the hearts of Englishmen. The Manchester policy was a policy of despair, in illus tration of which he referred to the Crimean war. They had then to found a national policy, to make a national party, and get national leaders. The object should be—a national policy to carry forward progressive freedom at home, and consistent action with that freedom abroad. The battle lay now in the hands of constituencies to say what the reform should be ; they might not get it next session, but it was of more consequence to keep their eyes upon a sound object that they meant to get. In conclu sion, he would say to the electors and non-electors of Newcastle, while this question was pending, their eourse was to tolerate the pretensions of no man to represent them in Parliament who shall not, at least, be thorough on the question of reform. (Applause.) Mr. SLACK seconded the resolution, and in doing so referred to the mismanagement of the Russian war and the sham peace which followed, and said if the people had political power they would have that political life which was essential to the vitality of a people. If they desired reform they must have a reformed Parliament ; and he thought that the appeal made to the working classes of England— this revivification of the old English spirit—would meet with a candid and hearty response. The Northern Reform Union was well calculated to effect the object that it desired, for it was by far the most important political body in existence in this country. They had nothing like it in London at all events. What they wanted was a simple measure of reform, free from all those complications which characterised the present state of things, and independent of revising barristers and persons attendant upon them. They neither wanted a sham nor a permissive ballot, for these would be worse than no ballot at all. If they could get nothing else than this, it would be better for them to wait. Mr. MIDDLEMASS proposed an amendment to the effect that the meeting should waive for the pre sent the age at which manhood suffrage should be conferred; and leave the question of electoral qua lification to be settled by the representatives of the people. Mr. SOUTHERN -seconded the amendment, and for which, on its being put, only three hands were held up. In favour of the original resolution a perfect forest of hands appeared. Mr. STAMFIELD moved—" That, in the opinion of this meeting, the work in which the Northern Reform Union is now engaged is calculated to ex tend the political education of the people, and to strengthen the hands of the reform party in and out of Parliament in their efforts to obtain from the Government a thorough measure of reform, and is, therefore, deserving of the active support and encouragement of all earnest reformers." Mr. LARKIN seconded the motion, which was carried unanimously. A vote of thanks having been given to the chair man, the meeting separated. The gold lately despatched on account o un f tsloso,ooo of the Turkish loan was £300,000. A freshshipmen will be made at the end of the week , to be followed bf,another of like amoit, which will complete the total at present contemplated.

THE PRUSSIAN:IRA , (From the Times) \, -- The Regency question is settled, vital Mesh stands astonished at her own success. Like the great Tom Thumb, if she has not fought it is be cause she has found na foes to fight withal. The terrible Junker party, or Squirearchy, as we should call them, the adherents of the A - rem: Zeitunq, the High Church and Divine. Right sticklers of our own Revolution of 1688, have made no fight at all, and so the poor King goes to recruit his shattered nerves by a diet of grapes at Meran, and the Prince of PrUssia has quietly succeeded to the Viceregency of the kingdom. The two Houses of Prussian Par liament appointed a joint committee, a precedent worthy of all imitation, always so 'far as private, and very often when public business is concerned, and looked into the case for themselves. They examined physicians as to the Royal health, and have agreed to a report which declares the Regency necessary. So far all goes well and quietly, and people seem astonished that so great a change could be made with so very little disturbance. This is not the way they are accustomed to do things in Germany. German quarrels have become prover bial for their length, at least, if not for their bitter noss, and we are used to fancy that everything that emanates from the Teutonic mind, whether it be a book, a measure, or a negotiation, must be of the most ample proportions. Considering how much was said about it beforehand, the dismal doubts that were entertained, and the awful speculations that were indulged in, the change of the deposi taries of power in Prussia has been a quick, facile, and painless operation. The truth seems to be that the Prussian public has undergone so many disap pointments, has so frequently gained ground only to lose it again, that it has lost heart, end scarcely believes in its own good fortune even when a change the most favourable appears to be about to take place. The Kreuz Zeitung party seems to have inspired the public mind with a degree of awe and apprehension with which its actual resources and powers are utterly in commensurate. Prussia could not believe that those who had for so many years directed her Councils with so much aristocratic insolence as re garded their fellow-subjects, and such abject and ruinous servility with regard to Russia, who had defied the whole enlightened opinion of the country, who had set spies upon the Prince of Prussia and broken open his letters, and who had actually put to death under the thin disguise of a duel a Minister who had ventured in th disc arge of his duty jct . - incur their displeasure, were, after all, the mere creatures of Royal- favour, possessing- little substantive power of their own, suppOrturby no commanding talent, illustrious for no great public services, and having no hold on the interests and affection of the nation.. That such a party co u ld thus be snuffed out without noise, and almost with out resistance, has been a matter of astonishment in Prussia. To us the wonder has rather been how such a party could ever have been regarded as pos segsing any of the elements of strength or dura bility,—as being, in fact, anything else than the feeble reflection of the Royal mind in its least magnanimous and patriotic mood. The mistake seems similar to that which led so acute an observer as Mr. Disraeli;to believe that the regeneration of England was to be wrought out by, the united efforts of a number of young gentlemen in white waistcoats, full of Catholic traditions and Norman sympathies, with a religion formed on the " Tracts for the Times," and a political creed based, princi pally, on Sir Walter Scott's novels. It is often seen that just before the break up of a party or of a creed there arises a feverish exaggeration—a kind of parody of its most untenable opinions ; the lamp flickers up once more in its socket, and then goes out altogether. It- was thus that Young England heralded the coming destruction of pure and genuine Toryism, and thus the principles of violent reac iion and oppression in Prussia have found their Most outrageous, and we trust and believe their last, exponents in the party of the Krenz Zeitunq. We have been in the habit during the last ten years of seeing so many goodly barks put to sea in search of the haven of a really constitutional and liberal Government, and have been so uni formly called upon to mourn over the wreck of patriotic hopes and glorious aspirations, that we view with very mixed feelings the new essay of Prussia to win for herself those institutions and liberties which have hitherto so constantly eluded her grasp. We hare already given our reasons for believing that there is a great deal more to be done than to snatch the reins of power from the hands which lately held them. The very fact that a country so enlightened as Prussia, whose literary men have taken so decided a lead in the higher walks of science and philosophy, and whose people are beyond dispute the best educated in Europe, should nave suffered itseff, without effort or resist ance, to be directed in a course almost fatal to its position as a great Power, and exceedingly preju dicial to its highest political interests, was to us a clear proof, not only that public opinion was not possessed of proper organs for its expression, but that the iron system of police and routine had weighed upon the spirit of the land till it had left its people no other habit but passive obedience, no other idea than executing, without murmur and without question, the will of a Sovereign. The Prussians have shown themselves the best of subjects, but this virtue, like many other virtues, must often be its own reward, and those nations have, on the whole, fared best who have evinced an unmistakeable impatience of control. We are now to see what use Prussia will make of the opportu nity which no exertions of her own, but the fail ing health of her King, has thrown into her hands. It seems absurd to offer advice to a nation whose literary acquirements fit it, should it choose to undertake the task, to be in so many matters the preceptor of the world, but in the practice and exer cise of freedom England also is happily not without a certain kind of erudition, and, if she has not brought the abstract theory of government to perfection, her history has contributed the most numerous and the most interesting facts to the cultivators of political science. We would, then, earnestly beg of the Prussian nation, if they wish to found among them an edifice of substantial and durable frees:om, to avoid as they would a pestilence all those who would invite them to form their notions on any abstract or metaphysical ground. There has been no enemy so formidable to liberty as the doctrine of the " Rights of Man" logically worked out and scientifically expounded. We believe that history will bear us out in the conclusion that freedom is to be obtained more readily by the gradual relaxa tion of aristocratic restrictions than by the attempt to invest every . eitizen at once with all those attri butes of sovereignty to which abstract theory may declare him to be entitled. The worst foundation on which we can bpild is that of universal suffrage. The edifice may rest on stones as yet unbroken, but not when they are pounded into sand. Ano ther thing we apprehend is quite clear—that, how , ever great be the blessings of a thoroughly centralised and organised system of police, and of a Government which regulates for its citizens almost every action of their lives, these are blessings which a nation really bent on the enjoyment of freedom must be prepared to forego. Freedom is not merely a matter of constitutional regulation ; it depends on the habits and spirit of the people, on the habit of self-reliance, and on the spirit which repudiates the intervention of Government any where beyond its immediate province, and claims to be free in its public acts because it has been ac customed to unrestricted liberty in its private con cerns. The experience of France shows that with Democracy may succeed Monarchy, and Despotism Democracy, and yet the liberties of the nation be e changes a o n f g es passports, educated, eayllost of upon e i nnatlar centralisation, staaht t ie i o o na n i , Ns Government,tlainniccdht distinction a polices, B' s t in no degree extended.

John Smith, solicitor of Birmingham, on behalf of Mr. Timothy Salmon, of Dudley. It was stated that the applicant wished to make an affidavit to the effect that his father had served in the army during the years 1802 and 1816, and upon his making this affidavit it was shown that, under the Act 5 and 6 Geo. 111., cap. 67, any officers, mariners, soldiers and marines, or persons who served in the militia or fencibles (or their wives and children), during the years 1802 and 1816 were entitled to sell exciseable articles with out a license, and in any place they might think fit ; and that if after such an affidavit were made, any person should take proceedings against the party, such persons would, u p on a n msuit, ye to pay double costs to the defendant.

The misbehaviour of several light-weight jockeys at the post caused the start to be delayed far beyond the appointed time. These lads were insensible to advice or censure, and • their unfair conduct will doubtless be brought under the notice of the Jockey Club, and some stringent measures will be adopted to prevent a repetition of the offence. The boys only recognise "orders" from their masters, and in their endeavour to carry them out—whether they be to get off in front or stay behind—the starter and his authority arc set at defiance. Their insubordination, too, places the elder and well-conducted jockeys at a great disadvantage; for they, in their desire to obey and assist the starter, risk being left at the post altogether. Just as the horses had mustered at the post, but before the starter had assumed his staff, Bel lona broke away, and Lifeboat "hunted" her. They ran over the entire course, and their jockeys were unable to stop them until they had gone right through the town, greatly to the consternation of the shopkeepers and market folk, whose stalls line the High-street. Nearly 20 minutes elapsed before Bellona and Lifeboat were brought back, and even when they reached the post several other animals were, as a bystander remarked, " seized with the fidgets." The Physalis colt was particularly fractious, and kicked and plunged furiously ; Goelette, Fearful, English Rose, F.M. the Duke of Duty, Glewinger, Satinstone, and Eury dice were amongst the most prominent in the lot which broke away and caused trouble to the starter. At about three-quarters of an hour after the appointed time (1.15) the flag dropped, perhaps to as fair a start as was ever wit nessed for a large race. Bellona, who was led to the post, was the last off, the man not "loosing" her head in time, but in a few strides she was right up in front. It was difficult to determine the relative positions of the leading horses; the front rank comprised Mr. Sykes, Malacca, Underhand, The Brewer, Leontes, Igno ramus, Physalis colt, Lifeboat, Farmer's Son, and Satin stone. When, however, the horses got fairly into their stride, Beacon and Tricolor also showed in good positions, and as the Duke's Stand was approached the colours of Bellona and Rocket were discerned in the van, Malacca, the Physalis colt, Leontes, and Lifeboat gradually drop ping into the rear. Zouave then went up to the leading horses, and running with him in close attendance were Beacon, Eurydice, Underhand, Satinstone, Rocket, Geo lette, and Ignoramus, the last-mentioned, whose colours were always prominent, being on the whip hand next the rails. Midway between the Duke's Stand and the winning chair, four animals only; Zouave, Beacon, Eurydice, and Underhand, were left to " fight it out." About a hundred yards from home Eurydice assumed the lead, and, holding it to the end, won, without any perceptible effort, by a length, Beacon beating Underhand by two lengths for second place, and Zouave, who suddenly compounded. in the cords, being half a length behind the third. Clear of them in a cluster came Prioress, Ancient Briton, Satin stone, and Mr. Sykes. In the extreme rear were Bellona, Malacca, Rosa Bonheur, and the Farmer's Son. Farmer's Son broke down at the Duke's Stand. Sweepstakes of 10 sovs. each, for 3-yr-olds and upwards. The winner to be sold for 80 soya, if demanded, &c. Last half of Ab. M. (3 furlongs 217 yards.)

On Monday evening a crowded public meeting on the subject of Parliamentary Reform; in connexion itUnion, was held at the LecturtheeNorthernHal. Reform Newcastleui)on:Ty4 % M r . W. C oo k was called to the chair. It was announced that letters had been received, expressing approval of the objects of the Union, from, among others, the members for the borough, Mr. Headlam and Mr. Ridley,; General Thompson, M.P., Mr. J. Bright, M.P., Mr. W. J. Fox, M.P. Mr. Herbert Ingram, M.P. Mr. J. Sturge, Mr. El Mia,ll, Mr. Malcolm Lewin (late Judge of the Suddur Court, Madras), arid Mr. Edward S. Pryce, Secre tary of the Guildhall Coffeehouse Reform Com mittee. The following is from the pen of General Thomp son, M.P. : " To the Members of the Northern Reform Union. " Friends, of all denominations,—ln writing to you, at the request of some of yourselves, it is not my intention to go over the several questions on which you have proved yourselves so well able to examine and to decide, but rather to put together such points as throw light on the necessity there is for a united action on your part, in the manner of those which have been successful in cases it is need less to mention. To which may be added notices of what look like the openings for carrying it forward with success. And _ here, at once, the broad state ment of the case is, that what for brevity, though not, perhaps, with mathematical precision ' may be called the working-classes, have not their fair share of influence in the composition of the political ma chine, nor the influence it would be for the general interest to give them. And these underground or overlaid classes, possessing vast numerical strength and rising fast in knowledge—which is power—are upheaving the mould like the biggest born of earth' at the creation, and showing unmistakeable signs that statesmen andpoliticians, if such there be must, before long, consent to take them into the ac count. And here I advise you to firmly penetrate yourselves with the weak point of the fallacy under which multitudes of well-meaning . men act against your leading object. They say, it is important that there should be security for wealth ; that wealth should have its enjoyment, and as the means tothat, its, influence ; that knowledge, too, as gained in the higher walks of study, and in the opportunity for actual political exercise, should have its sway. All this they say, and truly. It is quite true that the rich man should have the benefit of his riches in the market, and that the wise man who, in some way or other, has come by the knowledge of the means of honourably creating wealth for himself or others, should have the benefit of his superiority. So long as they use their money innocently it is all well ; but nobody upon this has made the discovery that to give them their due advantages in the mar ket it was necessary to keep the poor men out. It has always been held enough, if the rich man had the advantage of his riches, and the poor were pro tected in their poverty. Yet this is the mistake which has been made in respect of the suffrage. The rich man has numberless and blameless ways of influencing the votes of others, by his example, and by his power of spreading his opinions. The poor man has only his one ewe lamb--of saying yes or no at an election. There is no justice, no truth, in saying, if you give votes to the poor man, you take away the power of protecting themselves from the rich. There will always be only too much reason to fear that the ri c h will find the means of employing their influence and wealthto ill purpose. There may be limits to the parallel; bull maintain and stoutly defend, that there is, and always has been, a huge and monstrous fallacy abroad upon this very point of the limitation of the suffrage. There isno similar limitation thought of when men are wanted for the militia, nor when they are to be taxed at 10 or 11 times the rate of the richer classes by a crafty ap plication of what is called indirect taxation. these things want looking into both ways, and the rich ought especially to look into them, for it is likely there is a per tentage of them voting against the extension of the suffrage, when it is possible that such an extension would add three to their own supporters where it would only add two to their rivals. It is a pity to see men losing by thinking themselves too knowing. On th a t interesting point, the right of sending sealed letters to the Post-office --I beg pardon, I meant to the ballot-box-3-ou have an equally good case before you. When the upper ten thousand vote at the Royal Society, or at courts martial, they take special care that their vote shall be by ballot. Among other graces and ornaments of life, they are well' aware of the importance of that which consists in taking care of themselves; and when pressed for further reason, they say, distinctly, like sensible men as they are, that they do so be cause it is for the public good that they should do it. The officer at a court-martial resigns himself to giving his vote without declaring it to the pub lic, simply from the necessity of sacrificing for the public good, and not at all because he knows it would•be convenient for him to be out of the way of the vengeance of the powerful, or the insulting temptations of the affluent. And the Government, where concerned, agrees, upon the plain dictate of common sense, that man will not give his vote the better for being bullied into it, nor for being bribed. But when the question 'is of an h ones t an d poor man's vote, the rule as it stands says to him open mouthed—you shall not vote without the chance of somebody's having . driven you to it by oppression, or tempted you to it by lucre of gain ; and for this last we are particularly tender, for what could be so contrary to the objects of government as to allow a rich rogue to pay his money, with out the chance of verifying whether the poor one had earned his pay ? And here, upon this questi on o f the ballot, there is a practical misunderstanding abroad, not altogether unlike what was in the case of r the suf frage. Rich men say to themselves, " What would become of us all if we had the ballot ?" Whereas the fact is, that if some of them were to be worse, some would be better when the accounts were cast up. If A and B are two rich men, rivals at an elec tion, and half of A's men would go over to B if there was the ballot, and two-thirds of B's men would go over to A, there is no doubt that one or other of them would be the better for the ballot. But, they will say, some good-for nothing democrat will step in and oust us both. It has not been found to be se where there was opportunity for the experiment. Rich and selfish men sometimes overshoot their mark in their spe culations on the question.
