The Union and Univers have articles on the ru mour that the French CT' overnment has resolved to enforce the observance of the Sabbath. It • appears from an advertisement in- the jmrnals that a consi derable numberof tradesmu have already announced their intention to close their shops on Sunday. The Union, in mentieniug the fict, expresses the satisfac tion that it derives from it, and a hope that the ex ample' will be generally ft'liowed. It appears, says the Debats, that itis in contem plation to change the hews of opening arifi closing the Bowie of . Paris, so at; to enable telegraphic dispatches t o b e s ent off the saait day to. all the great towns of France with the last qtiubtions of the day. In fact, by fixing the Paris hours at from twelve to two, and these of Lyons, 13ordeaux, Marseilles, Rouen, and Havre from four to fire, an ahumlance of time would be left, after tha close of the Paris Bourse, to send by electric telegraph the official prices, so as to allow them to be posted in the departments before the or of each local bourse. It is sated that applications have been Made by several towns in the departments to have this chhnge in the hours effected, and there is reason to believe that the Minister of Finance will accede to the representationaniade. This intention was - spoken of yesterday at the Bourse, and some persons even went the length of affirming that the proposed change was already decided on, and would soon be carried into eff,,ct. - Since the end of March the Bank of France has h an d c a over to the Prefecture of _Police not less than 300 false pieces of 5f., which it had taken in !he course of busines. False pieces of 20f , exceedingly well executed, are now also in circulation. One was passed on Thursday evening at a grocer's shop in the Place de la Bourse. The Corsa steamer brought into Havre on Thurs. *lay morning four English boats, taken in the act a dredging for oysters within the French lines. ARABIA. Acdording to the - Trieste Zeitung, a courier from Jiddah had passed through Cairo on the 231 of 33/lay, on his way to Constantinople. A French ship of the line of 120 guns bad appeared off Jiddab. It is sup posed that formal po3sei4ion is about to be taken of a part of the coast of Abyssinia or Senaar, near the Bay of Amphilia, which is about three degrees north of the straits of BA-el-Maudeb. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT (THIS DAY.) HOUSE OF LORDS: The LORD CHANqiN'LLOR took his seat oa tho Wool sack at Five o'clock. LAW OF EVIDENCE (SCOTLAND) BILL. Lord LYNDHURST, with reference to this Bill, stated that having communicated with the law authorities of Scotland, who were desirous of securing some further evidence as to the manner in which the late a lterations in the law of evidence worked in England, he should not, therefore, at present persevere in the motion of which he had given notice, to insert certain words in the Bill, with a view to extending the whole of these alterations to the law of Scotland. Lord BROUGHAM approved of the postponement of he Noble Lord's motion for the present session; but he hoped it would not be understood that the Scotch lawyers were opposed to the principles of the alteration; they merely wished to have a little more insight into its working in this country. Lord CAMPBELL said he hoped to see the whole of these alterations introduced into the Scotch law daring the next session. After a few words from Lord LTINTo and Lord LYND , UCRST the subject dropped. PETITIONS. Lord BROUGHAM presented petitions from the Chin n favou r et berozCommerce at Norwich ani other places in the Pat , !nt Law Amenriment Bill; from S.

Mr. BANKES presented a petition from Dorsetshire against the Maynooth gra:it, Mr. LAWRENCE BEYWORTEI presented a num ber of petitions from different temperance societies, prey ing tbe.House to inquire into the causes and conse quences of intemperance. • - SUPPLY. On the question that the report of Supply be received, Mr. BERNAL said he wished to call tho attention of the Softie to the present distressed state of our West India colonies. He abstained from calling attention to this subject before becsuso he hid no desire to obztract the Progress of public business, hot the distress hr.d reached such a pitch that he could abstain from doing so no lOnger. Successive dispensations of Providence had completely depopulated Jamaica, and the cholera in one. year with the small-pox in another, b:d fair t,) entirely deprive the colony of its legitimate sfo..k of labour. Last year, o n his own estate, they lost 120 labourers from cholera, and this year they had been com pelled to apply t. el.. withehilcirenand fern ales,while many cf the older labourer were completely prostrated by attacir3 of small•p3x. In this st ate of glints lelec)ur became exceedingly costly, and op to the 30th of May, in the rir‘:.sent yen., hit ogent had ex cubed no lass than 1,0001. on farm labour alone.—(Hear, h ear.) lle he ed the tiovernment would ice the uccessity for bestowing THE' immediate attention to the subject, and endeavour, if possible, to assist in removing the distress, or thu con sequences to the colony might be most disastrous. Sir , JOHN ?ABINGTON said that he was not in the least aware of the intention of his Hon. Friend to make the observations he had done upon this painful and deeply interesting subject, or he would have been prepared with a greater amount of detail to meet it than he could possibly be under existing circumstances.-- (Hear.) From the unexpected manner in which his Hon. Friend had brought this subject forward, he could of course only meet his Hon. Friend's remarks with a general answer. He could assure his Hon. Friend and the House that no one was more painfully alive than he was to the distressed condition of the West Indian colonies. Indeed, his Hon. Friend would not fail to recollect that the subject commanded his attention long before he came into office; while since he had been in office he had afforded interviews to delegates from the Island of Jamaica, and from those gentlemen, as well as from private sources, he had received sufficient informa tion to satisfy him as to the particular causes of the distress to which his Hon. Friend had adverted.—(Hear, hear.) . The ravages which had resulted from the cholera and small-pox were not the result of the legisla tive policy of this country, though much of the distress might in some degree be traced to the operation of the policy which was adopted by this country in the year 1847. When he eeme into office ho immedietely di rected his attention to the question of considering -whether, under the peculiar circumstances of the present session the Government would be justified in addressing themselves to a reconsideration of that policy. On the first day that he took his seat after accepting office it became his duty to explain to the House. the con c l us i on w hi c h t h e G overnment h a d arrived at, after a careful consideration of the whole subject, and it would be remembered that he stated that under thepeouliar circumstances of the session, and look ing to the position of the Government, he felt that they would not be justified in making the West Indies an exception to the general role which they had laid down for their eunduch—(Hear, hear.) Although an alteration in the sugar duties, either by checking the descent of the foreign duty, or lowering the duty on colonial produce, was a subject which had strongly pressed itself upon the consideration of the Government, and was a question to which Go vernment might address its serious attention. Yet his Hon. Friends must be aware that that was by no means the only remedy which could be applied to the distress. With regard to any want of attention which it might be supposed he had betrayed in reference to this subject he hoped that, as far as he was concerned, his Hon. Friend would bear in mind the overwhelming nature of the duty which he had to undertake upon coming into office. There was, for instance, the extraordinary state of affairs in the Cape of Good Hope, which demanded the most important watchful ness. Then there was again the unprecedented labours imposed upon the Colonial-office by the sudden disco very of gold in Anetralia, while the settlement of the railway question in North America had engrossed a good deal of his limo and attention.—(Hear, hear.) Nevertheless, with all these matters pressing upon him, he could assure his Honourable Friend that he had never forgotten the disastrous state of the West ladle!, and within the last three or four days he had communicated with one of the senior clerks in the West India department of the Colo• nial-office, end had toll him that as soon as the immediate 'pressure of colonial business was telexed he wished him to prepare all the necessary papers for putting him in possession of everything •that related to the supply of laheur or to•the present state of the law of labour hi our West Indian colonies, with a view of ascertaining whether any relief could be afforded.—(Elear, hem) Bis Hoe. Friend might, therefore, :est satisfied that whatever was the ultimate policy of the Government with regard to the sugar duties, he, as Secretary for the Colonies, would not lose sight of this deeply intereatiog subject, or to direct his earnest ettention s, to wteibor ho should be able to stfird the colonies eny . ultiecate rehief.—(Hear, hear.) In reply to a question, Sir J. PAKING TON stated that it was not intended to take the Lebuan vote until Thursday. The House then went into Committee of Supply. - Oa the question that 10,0001. be devoted to defray the entense of the establishment in New Zealand, Mr. WILLIAMS protested against the country being required to provide religious instruction for this colony, and he hoped the bishop's stipend would not be called for next veer: Sir. J. PAKINGTON said it was hoped that alter next year there would be no grant of that nature at all. The vote was agreed to. The next vote was for 9361. for -Heligoland, which was agreed to. On the question that 9,4741. be voted for the Falk/and - Islands, Mr. WILLIAMS said there were only twenty-six inhabitants in the island, and the grant ought to be reduced. Sic J. PAKINGTON said more than half the grant was duo to the Admiralty. The vote was then agreed to, as was also 14,0831.• to defray the expenses of the Emigration Department of the Colonial-office. On the vote of 30,0001. for the capture of slaves, Mr. STAFFORD. in reply to Sir G. Pechell, observed that the. Board of Admiralty were determined to keep the squadron on the coast of Africa in a state of suffi cient effectiveness to suppress the slave trade in that quarter of the world. Sir G. PECHELL wished to know whether France and America still co-operated with this country in put ting a stop to the treffie in slaves on the coast of Africa? Mr. STAFFORD said the reports on that subject were satisfactory. Captain SCOBELL complained that there had not been sufficient promotion among those engaged in the attack upon Lagos. Admiral STEWART said the promotion of officers in the !affair of Lagos had occupied the deliberate and liberal consideration of the late Government. Whatever were the number of killed and wounded, he would take upon himself to say that in no other naval action on record was more liberal promotion given by the Admiralty. Mr. STAFFORD confirmed the statement of the Gallant Admiral. • Lord J. RUSSELL heard with great pleasure that it was the intention of the Government to keep up the slave squadron on the coast of Africa, for he believed, if it were maintained for a short time longer, the traffic in slaves would cease altogether. The vote was then agreed to, as was also a vote of 11,2501. for mixed commissions for adjudication is refe rence to captured slaves and slavers. On the vote of 150,9821. f or d e f r aying the expenses of consular establishments abroad, Mr. W. WILLIAMS considered that a great reduc tion might be made under this head without injury to the interests or commerce of the country. They might, for instance, dispense with th e cons ul at St. Peteraburgh, who received a salary of 7501. a year; for we had besides that officer in that city, not only an ambassador, hat a minister and secretary to the legation. He did not think the consul could have any duty whatever to per form which could not be discharged by the other repre sentatives of England in St. Peters burgh. The Hon. Member mentioned other instances in which reductions might be made. Lord STANLEY said there was only an increase of 2,0001 under this head, as compared w i t h l ast year, b u t the present Government were only responsible for a small portion of the present estimates. Ho assured the Honourable Member that his Noble Friend at the head of Foreign Affairs would take. this subject into his serious consideration with the view of econo mising the expenses as far as possible. In reply to Mr. HINDLEY, Lord STANLEY said ho was not aware of the existence of any redo that when a vacancy occurred in tke consular establishment it should be filled up by the Government at the same salary. Mr. W. WILLIAMS complained that the expense of our establishments at the small settlement of Hong- Kong amounted to 7,399 L, while at Canton, where so vast a commerce was carried on, the expense did no' exceed 4,629/. Lord STANLEY said the discrepancy was nominal and not real. The Governor of Hong-Kong conducted all negotiations with the Chinese Government, and had the general supervision of the consular establishments in China, and ho was therefore thought entitled to a larger salary than the consul at Canton. Mr. W. WILLIAMS did not complain of the Gover nor of Hong-Kong's salary, but thought he should per form an additional amount of duty. Admiral STEWART observed, that if: consuls did not perform their duties to the satisfaction of the com mercial part of the community, - the Government were sure to hear of it. We should never have good and efficient men to represent us in foreign parts, and to defend the rights of British merchants, unless they paid them well. The climate of Hong-Kong was the moat deadly to the European constitution, not even excepting the coat s . , . m o f Aes, and the coat of living there was e lOGt expensive. H e cons id ere d no money was b etter and ;_ o b i ess t ot he co c a o s u n n is tr a y br t o h a l in securing efficient, able, lati '6 r: n e: s tohneta m f e o f r lt h rther discussion the vote was agreed to. of 16,8001. for the extraordinary dis- Mr. AN sTE her Majsty's missions abroad, a Y wished to know, with regard to the sums paid f l or °t° „ m „ m b assies mbassadore chaplains, how it was that others did not? enjoyed the presence of a chaplain and Ho should move to was the principle of the selection? espouses the vote by 1,0004 the sum allowed for the emplained that chaplains.were only Lord STANLEy n r s of chaplains- Bak a l - I saias where there was not a auf attewhed to those ficicat number of of their own. residents to pay for a chaplain Mr. W.

Mr. ANSTEY did not Z e n ' : the s o t r b t:pl y :l:a n ti explanation of b e the ing Noble Lord satisfactory, b e found the facts did not at all coincide with his statements. He should not, divide the Committe. 12. . further conversati on , that, as it seeme d L or d DUDLEY STUART said o A w e f. v e e r ; some that the expenses of the Tuscan mission were included in this vote, ho wis hed to call t he attention (Aue Go vernment to a letter which ho had j ust received f a gentleman at Ilorence , Well I sslowe, r a o n ni d of great experience. In th at letter great complaint wits matlt, cf the manner i n which the British mission V 7 a 3 conducted there. The mission h a d no office iu the town, and any one desiring to see Mr. Seaslett was obliged to go out to his country house. to do which he had to take a vehicle and lose h alf a day. Lord STANLPY said that he was not .able to give any explanation at present, but the matter should be inquired into. He quite e greed that it was of the utmost importance that British fubje c t 3 abroad should ha v e easy and speedy access to Oki peeseeco of the repreresa tativel of their country whenever they might hays any occasion for their services. SUN, LONDON, Sir B. HALL wished to mention that he hii nself had experienced a difficulty of this sort at Turin, on an oc casion when ho bad required 60M0 alteration to be made in his passport. _ Tee CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that a circular had lately been addressed by the Foreign office to British missions abroad, which, he thought, would entirely prevent any inconvenience being expe rienced by British travellers from delay in this particular. He might also mention that a most distinguished mem ber of our diplomacy had just been appointed to the mission at Florence. The vote was then agreed to. On the vote of 175,3591. for superannuation allow ances, Lord DUNCAN wished to call the attention of the Government to the fact that in many instances retirin. , allowances were given to persons who were just in the e prime of life and perfectly competent to transact the busiaess of their offices. Sir B. HALL said that in cases of this sort ho was informed that the places were filled up by the relatives of the retiring clerk. Mr. HAMILTON pointed out the fact that many of the superannuation allowances were for offices which had been abolished. He agrt ed that the time of service might be lengthened, and ho would promise that by next year, if he held office so long, the whole system should be looked into. Lord EBRINGTON thought that in cases where offices were abolished, the holders of them ought' only to be superannuated until there was an opportunity of em ploying them in some other capacity. Mr. WILLIAMS knew for a certainty that many of those who received thugs allowances were far more able, as far as health and bodily strength went, to per form their duties than the great majority of Hon. Mem bers who attended regularly in their places. lie also complained that .the great majority of these gentlemen, even when in their offices, really did nothing, but were paid fOr amusing themselves in Idleness. Mr. HINDLEY suggested that for the future the new superannuation shoula be voted in a separate estimate, as many of these allowances had been made a number of years ago, and - it would be almost a breach of faith to disturb them. The vote was then agreed to. A vote 4,3001. for Polish refugees and distressed Spaniards was agreed to. Oa the vote oi - 4,469/. for miscellaneous items, formerly defrayed by the hereditary revenues of the Crown, Mr. ANSTEY objected to the item of 7001. for Frerch refugee clergy. Mr. HAMILTON explained that the allowance was made not as a religious grant, but simply as a grant to distressed refugeest Mr. ANSTEY objected to the item of 891. 94, to be distributed among the incumbents of the Isle of Man. It was his intention to oppose any measure that, in fact, voted public money for religious sects, and this item seeraed to him to bear that character. Re should cer tainly, unless it was clearly explained that this item bad no connexion with religious opinion, divide elle House on the question. With regard to the item of 4001. in aid of the funds of Lempeter College, he was entirely opposed to it. This cdiego was literally endowed by the widow's mite, and was openel in 18eS. A grant was made to the college by George IV., but this not having been sufficient, the present grant was made by Parliament oa the condition of its only extending till the asiets and extenditere should be equal. The accounts of the col lege were never' fairly produced, and although the gift of the college new considerably exceeded 4001., the prin cipals of the college, notwithstanding this, came forward annually, like fraudulent tenure to ask for this grant. In the form of the certificate which is now brought. forward requestitg the continuanca of the grant, the responsibility is dvided among, so many persons, that no one can be made responsible fortany misstatement in that certificate regarding the essets and expenditure of the college. It was curious that - all the certificates not in use deted, not from Wales, bat from Durham, and, according to these certificates, the livings attached to the college had actually decreived fifty per cent. in velue. That he (Mr. Aestey)iwas unable to betleve. Nothing but mischief bad reetitted from this grant, it had bad the effect of fostering ignorance and idleness, and nothing would be so advantageous for the education of North Wales as the entire destruction of St. David's College at Lampeter. He would move that the vote be diminished by the sum of 1,800/ Mr. MORRIS hoped that the Committee would not be led away by the specious elcquence of the Learned Member fer Youghal. The principal of this college bad taken high henours of the Uciversity of Oxford; and the character and *Wien of the vice-principal and Bishop of St. David's entirely precluded any belief in the abuses which the Hon. Member for Youghal bad enumerated. Mr. S. DAVIES said that it was impossible that such abuses as those mentioned could have existed in a college which had had gentlemen of such worth for its principals. ' The most distinguished members of the Welsh Church had been pupils at that college, men distinguished alike fQr their learning and, piety. . With regard to tee principals of the college having refused to return any accounts at all, ho (Mr. Davies) did not think that such could be the ease. The reputation of the college and of the gentlemen connected with it was a sufficient guarantee that no fraud could be intended. Mr. WILLIAMS, as having been born in that county in which the college existed, felt extremely anxious about the education of the youth of that county. Every one must be aware that any public edifice receiving a grant from the country was amenable for any th►ng like falsification of accounts. He should pretwr the grant to be 1,0001., instead of 4001. With regard to the statement of the Hon. Member for Youghal, that no one at that college could preach in the Welsh language, he would only say that some of the most dis tinguished clergymen in Wales were educated at that establishment. After a few words from Mr. LOVEDEN, Mr. W. WILLIAMS considered that if the Church of Wales had territorial tithe it would be as rich as the Church of England, and .a® well able to support itself. He would challenge the Hon. Member to mention any more upright or conscientious men than the gentlemen connected with St. Davii's College, Lampeter ' even if he were to begin with the rope him se lf.—(A laugh). He should be glad to see the college in a condition not to require this grant at all. Mr. HAMILTON suggested that the time had arrived for reporting progress, and he should move that the Chairman should do so, if the Hon. Member intended to divide the Committee. After a few words from Mr. ANS'EY, The CHAIRMAN reported progress, and the House rautned. The report was orclerel to be received to-morrow.. The Scotch Mills for Flax Bill was then read a third ,line. The other twelve o'clock orders were then disposed of, and the House rose at Four o'clock. The SPEAKER resumed the Chair at Six o'cicck. PETITIONS. Mr. BROTIIERTON presented several petitions from Camberwell and other places against the Militia Bill. Several petitions to the same effect were presented by other Hon. Membirs. Sir H. WILLOUGHBY presented a petition from a law society in the metropolis in favour of the abolition of masters in Chancery. Mr. EWART presented a petition from Dumfries shire against the grant to Maynooth. Mr. DUNCOM BE presented a petition from Finsbury in favour of Parliamentary reform. • Mr. COBDEN presented a petition from a religious society in Yorkshire, praying fur an alteration of the law preventing marriage with a deceased wife's sister. Mr. BRIGHT presented a petition from the county of Down, complaioiag of the interference of the Marquis of Londonderry in the election for that county, and praying for an inquiry into the matter which they considered a direct interference With the privileges of the House and the freedom of elections. Also, a petition from Maryport, praying that no Member be allowed to sit in the House who had been concerned as principal or second in a duel.' . INSOLVENCY OF THE POOR•LAW COM• MISSION. In reply to Lord DUNCAN, Sir J. TEOLLOPE said the circumstance of the Bank of England refusing to pay a cheque of the Poor law Commisaion for 149!., oa the ground that there were " no effects," arose from the inadver tency of ono of the clerks of the Poor-law Board, who had omitted to pay certain monies into the bank. THE HON. MR. LUNCIES. In reply to Sir H. VERNEY, Sir J. PAKINGTON said the letter of the Hon. Mr. Hincks, which appeared in the limes newspaper, was quite authentic, but he bad no knowledge how it found its way into that journal. In consequence of its publication without the documents which preceded and followed it, moat erroneous impressions had gained currency. (LEFT SPEAKING.) SAGACITY•OF THE DOG. A moat remarkable instance of the sagacity of this noble and faithful animal was related by Dr. Von Iff land, a German physician of considerable eminence many years ago:—" While in practice at Quebec, a large 'log, bleeding profusely from the right leg, at tracted the attention of one of my students. He was coaxed into the surgery, when I found an artery and tendons completely divided. I ordered the poor animal to be firmly secured, by whi c h means a ligature was •applied to the bleeding vessel, and after shaving the hair surrounding the wound, I care fully applied adhesive plasters, and brought its edges together (leaving a small aperture for the ligature), covered with a linen bandage. After the operation he was set at liberty, but to my surprise the fol lowing morning the dog was one .of my earliest patients, The bandego appeared to be undis turbed. I, however, removed it for the purpose of examining the state of the wound, and as the strips of plater appeared to be in the adhesive state I allowed them to remain. On the third day, about the same hour, the sagacious animal made his appearance, and impatiently (by his gestures) waited his turn to meet the attention of my assistant to dress anew his wounds, to which ho most gently submitted, licking the whole time of the operation the hands of the operator. He continued punctually to visit my surgery every morning at the same hour until cured. which I believe was not less that fifteen days. I found, some time after, that the dog belonged to a respectable butcher, and, every time I had occasion to pass his master's house, it was impossible to avoid the extreme caresses and fondness 'which the animal displayed by its alert gestures and jumpieg, and even foilpwing me through all my visits to my patients!, until he saw me safely to ray own 'edgings, when he im diateiy departed for his master's 110118 e, and what is more extriordinary, all the enticing means resorted to by the students and myself never could prevail upon the do& to enter the surgery after he was dismissed Its cued."' FOREIGN THEATRICALS. OPERA COMIQUE.—One of Mehul's unpretending little operas, L'lrato, has been revived here, for the debut in the part of Scapin of M. Meillet, one of the pillars of the Opera National during the past season. He was received with marked favour. The other parts were creditably supported by Mdlles. Lemercier, De croix, and Met Lemeire, SLe. Foy, and Ponchard. VAIIDETILLE.—After a remarkably prosperous career, La Dame aux Came= has diseppeared from the affiche in consequence of the conga of Madame !Docile, whose admirable doting has not a little contributed to its sue crss. The novelty which has replaced it, La Maitresse d'_Ete et /a Maitresse d'Hiver, by M. Clairville, aided by M. Cordier, has one poiut in common with i's attrac tive predecessor—it is in five acts—of which three at least are de trop. There is no deficiency of smartness and animation, but five acts of incidents more or less confused, merely to narrate the amorous tribulations of M. Henri, or M. Arthur, is rather over estimating the importance of such trifles. In this affair, the hero is a Parisian " Giovanni," who in summer con descends to honour with his notice a pretty peasant girl, whom he all but seduces, while in winter ho be comes one of the most devoted admirers of Mlle. Rosati, one of the fair denizens of the quartier Breda. The maitresse d'ete, however, has also a rustic admirer, who, with a spirit that does honour to the con fraternity of modern Melibcei, punishes M. Henri by transforming himself into an aecomplished townsman, making a vigorous attempt to supplant him in the affec tions of Rosita, and finally calling him out and " wing ing" him after the most approved fashion. Ultimately the piece concluds with the marriage of the hero with the village girl. ANtIGU.—The most illustrious of ancient are matists have been reproached with a too liberal use of the ter rible in their dramas, but ell the Greek writers, even old Atchylus himself, must yield the palm to the Ambigu.

TILE PROBABLE STARTERS FOR TO-MORROW'S RACES AT ASCOT. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sm,—ln giving the list of starters below, I must state, that in two races, the Trial and Third Triennial Stakes, the fields may be altered by circumstances, which cannot be foreseen at this present writing. In the Trial Stakes, should Nancy run, she will probably not have more than a couple of opponents; should she be reserved for the Vase, the field, on the contrary, will be rather large than otherwise. With regard to the Third Triennial, Harbinger may be selected to do battle in place of Red Hind. With these provisoes understood, the fields for the various races will be, as far as I can ascertain, composed as follows: The Trial Stakes; New Mile—Officious,:filly by Knight of the Whistle, Mountain Flower, Charles, the Queen of Beauty filly, or Shropshire Lass, Madeline colt, Jack the Giant Killer, and perhaps another or two. If Nancy starts, of course she wins ; in her absence I shall look to one of the two years old for the winner—JACK THE GIANT KILLER or Parr's filly. The Ascot Stakes; two miles and a half—Lady Evelyn, Backbiter, Selina, Chopkins, Storyteller, Antigone, or Maria (probably the former), the Heriot, Allegro, Lucia, and Buckthorn. Exeter, Gladiole, and Nutshell are doubt ful starters. My opinion on this race remains as expressed last week; LADY EVELYN or BACKBITER, in all probability the former, to win, with Storyteller and Lucio in the next places. Gold Vase; two miles— Barbarian, Ambrose Marinella colt, Sackbut, Frantic, Little Harry, and Clincher. Nancy is a:nong the doubtfuls for this'as for the other races. Halle goes I expect she will be about winning: put her out of the way and FRANTIC and BARBARIAN will be first and second. The Welcome Stakes; one mile and a haIf—FLIRT, 1; FATitaa THAMES, 2. Bay Rosalind not expected to start. Second Triennial ; one mile seven furlongs and 154 yards— Misserima, Midas, Harpsichord, Cnxus, Hesse Homburg, Leybourne, Catalpa, and Knook Knoll. Constellation a some what doubtful runner. As 1 remarked before. this race will probably terminate in favour of MIDAS or Missitoute, the former being tooled by Norman, and the latter by White house; and if I place Hesse Homburg in the third position, with Census and Catalpa following—the other three bringing up the rear—l think my view of the case will approach very near to realization. Third Triennial Stakes; New Mile—Harbinger, or fled Hind, Songstress, Joe Miller, Filius, Calot, Weathergage, Convulsion, King Pepin, and perhaps Ilex. The first two places in this race are tolerably sure of being filled by the Goodwood horse and SONGSTRESS; Joe Miller not improbably being stalled off the third place by Filius. Nat will ride the Goodwood horse, and Butler Songstress ; so we may expect a very interesting struggle. A. Day mounts Filius. Fifty Soya. Stales; not quite t, , io miles—Father Thames, 1; Houlakin, 2. Red Hind is not expected to start, or, of course, she would have won. In her absence, Father Thames's allowance of, 6lbs, will just enable him to dispose of lloulakin. Ascot Derby Stakes; one mile and a half—Red Hind, Convvlsion, and, for the off chance, perhaps Ilex. Should Red Hind run for the triennial Stakes, I presume some com promise will be made in this stake, and that she or Convul sion will make a walk over of at; but in the event of her not starting for the Triennial, of course she will win this affair in a canter. The first day's sport will terminate with the spin between Stella and Elspeth for the Fifty sous. Sweepstakes, over three-quarters of a mile. The latest betting on the Ascot events shows a marked alteration in the prices of several horses, particularly so with regard to Voltigeur for the Emperor's Plate and Backbiter for the Ascot Stakes; the latest quotations rule as follow : Trial Stakes-2 to lon the field. Ascot Stakes-7 to 2 agst Lady Evelyn, 4 to 1 agst Storyteller; 6 to 1 agst Har ricot, 3 to 1 agst Luci t, 10 to 1 agst Backbiter. Gold Vase 7to 4 agst Frantic, sto 2 agat Barbarian. Second Triennial Stakes-3 to 1 agst Midas, 4to 1 each agst Misserima, Hesse Homburg, and Onazus, 6 to 1 agst Knook Knoll, 10 any other. Third Triennial-2 to 1 each agst Songstress and Red Hind, 4to 1 agst Harbinger, 6 to 1 each agst Joe Miller and Filius—nothing else mentioned. Ascot Derby-5 to 2 on Red Hind, 3to 1 agst Convulsion. Fernhill Stakes— 6to 4on Vaultress, 4to 1 agst any other. Fourth Triennial Stakes-3 to lon the field, 7to 2 agst Auld Acquaintance, S to 1 each agst Veteran and Tamerlane. Cuckoo tidy inquired after, but nothing done. Coronation Stakes—Even on Ca loric, 3to I agst Exotic filly. Emperor's Plate-5 to 2 agst Voltigeur, 3 to 1 agst Bobbie Noble, 4 to 1 agst Mountain Deer,6 to 1 any ether. New Stakes-2 to 1 ac , st Pelion, 4 to 1 agst Pharold, 7 to I agst Coomberland ancrStathesmon. 50 soya. Stakes-6 to 4on Harbinger, 4to 1 each agst Fi lila and Ben 'Nevis.
