There was a large attendance at the Subscription Rooms this day, and betting on the Liverpool Steeplechase was both heavy and important. Emblematic was firm at 7 to 1, but Emblem was also backed in good quarters, at 22 to 1. Arbury was freely supported, Bto 1 being taken as long as that price was obtainable ; and L'Africain, not withstanding his peculiar performance at Derby, in the Midland Steeplechase, was in great request, opening at 100 to 6, and closing at Bto 1 (taken freely). Tony Lumpkiia, although not backed for large amounts, was steady of 100 to 9 ; and Lightheart and Joe Maley had supporters at 100 to 6 each, that figure being offered against Jerry. There was a commission in the market for Alcibiade, but less than 25 to I was not taken about him. At 100 to 3 Princess Dagmar was freely backed, and that price, after 28 to 1 had been accepted to small sums, was taken about Meanwood. The most noticeable feature, however, in the afternoon's betting, was the transactions in connection with Stanton, who was backed to win at least £25,000, £20,000 of that amount going into two hands. Finally, 33 to 1 was the highest offer against Stanton.

A brilliant spring morning preceded the commencement of the racing on the second day at this meeting, which tempted a much more numerous company than were pre sent on Thursday. Many doubtless attended to hear any new moves in respect to the Liverpool Grand National Steeplechase, which, together with the other events pro vided by Mr. Topham, will be run ,off next week. The sensation movements were the advance of L'Africain, not withstanding his defeat on Thursday in the Great Midland Steeplechase, to 11 to 1 taken in several instances. Stanton advanced to 100 to 7, which was taken five times, but sub sequently receded to 25 to 1, offered. The afternoon's sport, which produced some good contests, showed the rival jockeys, Fordham and Grimshaw, to . be in great and form, as the former won three races and Grimshaw two.

We believe that Mr. Coxe, in the Oxford boat, has been changed, but our latest advice does not give us the substi tute; the crew are very fine, and ink* improving. From Cambridge we learn that Mr. Beebee resumed his place last Saturday, Mr. Marshall retiring, and there has been no alteration in the crew since. They have not yet commenced their trips to Clay Hive, but will probably do so in a few days. It is generally admitted that there is a gradual im provement in the rowing, the stroke being longer than formerly, and the time and swing characterised by a greater precision. It is intended that they shall try their skill in an outrigger in a few days, and they will probably then take their rows over the broad reach at Ely. Betting is 5 and 6 to 4 on Oxford, but the ,Cantabs' friends are very sanguine. ~ 11 0 ~ 11 2 ~ 11 13 13 2 12 7 ~ 13 0 ~ 12 5 11 10 KING AND CAFFIN.

The first of the annual eight-oar torpid races took place on the Isis this afternoon,when, notwithstanding the banks were under water, the votaries of aquatics mustered in groat force, and accompanied their respective college boats from Miley. The following colleges were represented in the order given. 1, Exeter ; 2, Brasenosc ; 3, Christ Church ; 4, University; 5, Corpus Christi ; 6, Daniel ; 7, Queen's ; 8, Magdalen ; 9, Trinity ; 10, Pembroke ; 11, Oriel ; 12, Wadham ; 13, Worcester; 14, Lincoln; 15, St. John's. Exeter rowed proudly on at the head of the river, and from the distance Brasenose were behind them there seems little chance of their being bumped. University caught Christ Church at the Willows, Pembroke ran into Trinity at Harvey's Barge, Wadham secured Oriel at the same spot, and Lincoln bumped Worcester near the Gut. The second race will take . place this afternoon, and as the floods were going down fast it is hoped the banks will be sufficiently dry to enable the general public to witness the interesting racing. Capture of a Royal Stag in Windsor. NOVEL TERMINATION OF A HUNT WITH THE QUEEN'S HOUNDS. Yesterday afternoon the chase with her Majesty's stag hounds terminated in a very novel and singular manner. The Royal pack had met at the Warren House, Binfield, at half-past 11 o'clock in the morning, the field, which was one of the largest that has assembled at the meets for some time past, including the Earl of Bessborough, the noble master of the buck-hounds; a number of ladies, and several of the officers belonging to the Windsor garrison. The deer " Doctor," well known for its excellent runs, was uncarted about a quarter to 12 o'clock, and immediately made way through the village of Bracknell to New Lodge, the resi dence of M. Van de Weyer, the Belgian Minister, and thence to Clewer. Although the ground was rather heavy owing to the late rains, the scent was good, and the pace great, the run giving some rather sharp travelling to the horse men and dogs. Leaving the little village of Clewer, on the west of the Royal borough, the deer rattled away towards the town of Windsor, which it speedily entered, and rush ing up Peascod-street, one of the principal thoroughfares, as if making for the Castle, suddenly darted into the shop of Mr Linnell, butcher to his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, and thence into the kitchen, where several persons were at dinner, and of course greatly to their consterna tion. A scene of confusion immediately ensued upon the entrance of the unexpected and unbidden visitor, who was at length secured by a number of men and removed from Mr. Linnell's kitchen to one of the cattle-pens at the rear of the house. This occurred about half-past 1 o'clock, and a few minutes afterwards the dogs, followed by Sing, several huntsmen in their scarlet livery, and many of the horsemen, reached the upper part of Peascod-street, where Mr. Linnell's pre mises aro situated, while the unwonted occurrence soon attracted a large crowd of spectators, who thronged eagerly about the shop and horsemen. The gates leading to Mr. Linnell's yard were then thrown open, to allow the hounds to pass in to where the deer was confined, after which the pack was withdrawn and taken home to the kennels, the run hating lasted about an hour and forty minutes. It is some time since a stag has been talon in such a singular posi tion in the vicinity, and the deer - ivas accordingly visited by many ladies and gentlemen while held captive in the town. THE STARTING NUISANCE.--" The last thing at night, and the first thing in the morning !"—the last race at Shrewsbury, and the first at Lincoln—the " irrepressible boy" is at it again.. Everybody that likes to see a race run to time, and a horse get a fair chance, had hoped that something would be done in the winter ; perhaps the boys would cool down, perhaps the exuberance at Shrewsbury was theletting off before the holidays, and, be sides, horses get fretful after 10 months' racing. Now the spring arrives, brings its races with it, and lo ! the starting at Lincoln for the principal races is recorded to have been among the very worst ever made. But habits grow apace, and unless this is rapidly looked to, we shall have the whole of this year's sport spoilt, as, in a great degree, that of last season's was. We cannot but see that hitherto it has been playing at stewards and starters ; and we do hope that both will soon make their duties stern reality. To the former, we can only repeat what we said last week, that no ono who does not mean to do his work should accept the re sponsibility ; for the latter, it is not a pleasant thing to know, that there is but one starter in England—the Jockey Club official—who has practically the courage to report a jockey.—Sporting Gazette. INDO-EUROPEAN TELEGRAPH.—A large number of messages aro now being received daily from all parts of India by the newly-opened route via' Constantinople and the Persian Gulf. A message received in London to-day from Kurrachee only occupied six hours in transmission. THE CONVICT POLIONI.—It is stated that Sir G. Grey was yesterday morning engaged in investigat ing the circumstances connected with the case of Peliz zioni, or Polioni, now under sentence of death for what has been called the Saffron-hill murder, and a statement has been presented to Baron Martin, who is now at Warwick, with a request that he will at once communicate to the Home Secretary his views upon the altered state of the case. Polioni is now at Newgate, but up to yesterday even ing the Sheriffs had not received any official communica tion with regard to a further staying of the execution. It is expected that the Sheriffs will receive an intimation that they are not to carry out The sentence of execution, but that the prisoner must be detained in Newgate until her Majesty's pleasure ;with regard to bim shall become known.

It ap pears from the evidence that, on the day above mentioned Croizard went to see his mother, who lived at a hamlet of the same village along with her daughter and son-in-law, the prisoner Violleau, and fro'm that day nothing was seen of him till his body was found, on the Bth December, in a dry well in a field about midway between his mother's house and his own. The post-mortem examination showed that the unfortunate man had been murdered by blows on the head with some sharp instrument, and that the body had been thrown into the well some time later, as no blood had flowed from it there. Croizard, who as a widower, possessed land and other property which brought him in about 500 f. a year, on which he lived, and he had for some time past expressed his intention of marrying again, which gave great offence to the prisoner Violleau, who had expected to inherit his broth er -i n -l aw ' s pro perty, and had been heard to express threats of venge ance against Croizard . Suspici on accor di ngly fell on him, and he was arrested. A st r i c t i nvest i gation followed, and it was ascertained b e y on d all doubt that Violleau had sent his mother and wife out of the way on the occasion of Croiz ar d' s v i s i t, and had murdered him in their absence with a billhook, which was found in his pos session bearing mark s o f bl oo d . Stains were also found on his clothes, which were proved to have been made with human blood. The prisoner confined his defence to simple denials of his guilt, but the evidence against him was deemed conclusive by the jury, who found him guilty of murder without premeditation, and the court accordingly sentenced him to twenty years' hard labour. IRISH DOGS.—A bill laid before the House of Commons by Sir F. Heygate, for the protection of sheep from the ravages of dogs having no owner or disclaimed, proposes that every dog when it is six months old :hall, under a penalty, be registered by its owner annually, with i description, at the police-station, and a ha lf-crown fee paid per dog ; aad any dog, whose owner cann ot after due in quiry be discovered may be destroyed by the police. The bill is to extend to Ireland only. THE AGINCOURT.---It is expected that the Agin court, armourplated frigate, now building for Government by Messrs. Laird, at Birkenhead, will be launched at the end of the month ; probably the 28th. As she is built in a graving-dock she will be rather floated than launched. 996 1001 1 1 100 991 MST. Another Great Burglary in the City, On Friday at 1 o'clock, Robert Rowland, 25, of 5, Half moon-passage, Whitechapel, described as a clerk, and Wm. Bell, 18, living at 5, Newman's-place, Bishopsgate, a porter, were brought before the Lord Mayor, at the Justice-room at the Mansion-house, charged with breaking and entering the premises of Messrs. Twiss and Browning, of 47, Mark lane, merchants, and stealing three cash-boxes containing money and securities representing money and merchandise to the amount of many thousands of pounds. City Police-sergeant Jennison was called. He said— About 10 minutes to 2 o'clock this morning my attention was called by Mr. Young, of 47, Mark-lane, to• a light in the premises of Messrs. Twiss and Browning. The house is principally let out as offices, and Mr. Young lives on the top floor. The light I saw was on the ground floor. Mr. Young let me in by the street door, and I found that a hole, large enough to admit a man's arm, had been broken in the glazed door leading from the lobby on the ground floor to Messrs. Twiss and Browning's offices. By the time I had got into the lobby the light had been put out, and neither Mr. Young nor I could get into the office. While I was speaking to him I heard a bell ring in an inner office. Not being able to get in, I placed a constable at both the front and back door of the premises, and I waited there until 8 o'clock this morning. The porter Rye then came and opened the door of the offices. We went in and found the prisoner Bell sitting in an easy chair in the private room of Mr. Browning, smoking a cigar and drinking rum. (A laugh.) The other prisoner was sitting at a table by his side. On my asking what they were doing there they made no answer. On looking round I saw the iron safe had been•opened by a key, that the key was in it, and that two cashboxes were lying on the floor broken open and empty. Several papers were strewn about the floor, and the place was in a state of general confusion. Messrs. Twiss and Browning are large wine merchants. I charged the prisoners with burglary. They made no reply, and I took them to the Seething-lane police-station. They are known to the police. I found half-a-crown on one of them. Mr. Robert Moore—l am a solicitor at 47, Mark-lane, and reside in chambers there connected with my office. I had been out last evening at a friend's house, and returned home about 1 o'clock this morning. I had a dog in my rooms on the second floor which I was going to send into the coun try, and I took it out for an airing before I went to bed. When I got about half way down stairs I saw a flash of light through a skylight over Messrs. Browning's offices, but it was pnt out immediately afterwards. Knowing that no windows reflected on the skylight, I suspected some thing wrong. I tried Messrs. Browning's doors, and found they were fastened. I went out with the dog, and on my return in about 10 minutes, having my suspicion excited by what I had seen, I sat down on the stairs near my own rooms, and remained quiet for a few minutes. I then saw the gas lit up in Mr. Browning's offices. I crept quietly down stairs, and tapping loudly at the window in which I saw the light, I asked who was there, adding that if no answer was made I should call the police. The light was put out directly after I tapped at the window, and I went to the front door to look for a policeman. I waited a few minutes, and Sergeant Jennison presented himself. I called him in, and he looked round and found a square plate of glass in the inner door of Messrs. Browning's offices broken. All the doors were locked. I went and called Mr. Young, who lives at the upper part of the house. We placedpieces of tape on the locks outside with seals, and constables were stationed outside the house at various places during the re mainder of the night. _ The Lord Mayor—Do you suppose the prisoners had been locked in ? Witness—From the appearance of the place we think they had broken the glass door, which is one of two en trances to the offices, and had then put their hands through and opened the door from the inside. Samuel Speck, a city police-sergeant, said that morning, about 6 o'clock, by the direction of Inspector Lennard, he placed two constables, one in Tower-street, and the other in Mark-lane, front and back of the house. He then went with Sergeant Jennison into the offices of Messrs. Browning, a door of which the porter unlocked. On entering the private offices the two prisoners were found seated as described by Sergeant Jennison. On searching the prisoner Bell he found a florin and a fourpenny piece with a hole in it upon him. He sent the prisoners to the police-station, and con tinued to search the place. There is a large strong room in a corner of the private office, enclosing an inner iron safe, with three or four compartments. He found the key of the strong room, and the strong room door open. He also found the key of the iron safe in the door. The three cashboxes produced had been taken from the safe, and two of them broken open. The other, which was not broken open, contained a number of dock warrants. He found a key of the outer office door in the private room of Mr. Browning, and also six other keys, none of which fitted any locks on the premises. He also found a " jemmy" in one of the rooms with a chisel at one end and a hammer on the other, and it fitted the marks made on the cash-boxes in breaking them open. George Rye, head porter to Messrs. Twiss and Browning said they occupied part of the ground floor. He was the last to leave the premises on Wednesday night, which he did at a few minutes past 8 o'clock. He locked the offices up in the usual way, and took the key of the front door away in his pocket. There was an inner door leading to the offices. He had first seen that the iron safe as well as the strong room was locked. The Lord Mayor—Do they leave the key of the safe on tho premises at night ? Witness replied in the affirmative, and mentioned in what part of them it was left. On his returning to the offices next morning, he found the inner door sealed up and two officers in charge of the place. He unlocked the door and went in with the officers, and found the prisoner's sitting in " the governor's" room. The strong room and the safe were both open, and two cashboxes were lying on the floor broken open. By the Lord Mayor—The key of the safe was placed in an open pigeon-hole over night. (A laugh.) Sergeant Speck said he had forgotten to state that on searching the water-closet on tho ground floor he found a check for £5, signed by Mr. Browning, a copy of a will, and other papers. One of the cashboxes, an iron one, contained 57 dock warrants. Thomas Young, a junior clerk in the office of Twiss and Browning, said he locked the iron safe and left the office a few minutes before 7 on Wednesday evening, leaving the witness Rye to lock up the premises. From the iron cash box produced, containing dock warrants, a £5 bank-note had been taken. The check signed by Mr. Browning had been taken from one of the smaller cashboxes, as had also the will. He had not locked the cashboxes, but he saw them in the safe before he locked it. Money, but he could not say how much, had been taken from one of the smaller cashboxes. After locking the safe, he placed the key in a pigeen-hole of the office. The Lord Mayor asked if it was a usual practice with him after locking the safe to leave the key on the premises. Witness replied in the affirmative. The Lord Mayor—l see that the key of the iron cashbox containing all the dock warrants is attached to the lid by a string. Is it always kept so attached ? • Witness—lt is. (Laughter.) - Mr. Henry Wood, cashier to the prosecutors, deposed that there were seven £5 bank-notes, an Australian sovereign, a bad half-crown wrapped up in a piece of paper, and a very bad sixpence in one of the cashboxes. (A laugh.) They did not take the bad money—(a laugh),—but they took everything else. Another of the cashboxes which had been broken open contained stamps. Bridget Johnson—l am a servant to Mr. John Young, jun., architect, 47, Mark-lane, who lives at the top of the house. I never saw the prisoners before, except one of them on the previous evening. About 10 o'clock last night the street door bell was rung, and I opened the door. The premises were all shut up for the evening. On my open ing the door the prisoner Rowland gave me a letter and aaked if he could see a young woman named Bridget. I said, "I am Bridget." (A laugh.) He said, " I have brought a letter from Mrs. Notley." I took it upstairs to the housekeeper, not knowing what the letter meant, and shut the outer door, leaving the prisoners inside the passage. I know a Mrs. Notley. She is in the habit of calling to see Mrs. Young, of whom she was an old servant. I was absent about five minutes. The housekeeper read the letter, and told me to say I could not write an answer that night. When I came down I saw the prisoner still stand ing inside where I had left him. I did not see anybody with him. The letter was as follows : " Whitecross-place._ " Dear Bridget,---I write this note hoping to find you in the enjoyment of good health, which lam sorry to say I am not at present. Dear Bridget, I write for a favour, which I know if possible you will oblige. I wish you to call and see me on Sunday, as I am sorry to say I am very ill. Dear Bridget, send a written answer by the young man who forwards this to you, as he has got to give it to a relative who his (sic) kind enough to call for me. Please to put it in the letter what time you will call, as I may bo prepared for you. Be sure and come, as I wish to soo you very particular.—l remain, dear Bridget, your affectionate " MARY NOTLEY. friend, I told the prisoner I could not write an a nswer that night, but I would do so in the morning. He then left, and I closed the door behind him. I don't know either of the prisoners. Ch ar l o tt e Tillett, serv ant to Mr. Young, deposed that the prisoner Rowland came to the street door about 9 o'clock on the previous evening and asked if a person named Bridget was in. Witness, who had answered the door, said she wa s not, upon which he said he and a friend of his particularly wished to see her. He did not leave his name, but he said he would return at 10 o'clock. He then went away. The prisoners were then remanded to Friday, the 10th. Pol i ce - serge ant Speck believed a previo us conviction would be proved against one of the prisoners. Mr. Wood, tho prosecutor's cashier, asked to be allowed to see the dock warrants, which he said were exceedingly valuable, in order to find if any of them were missing. He also asked to have back the keys of the strong room and safe. The Lord Mayor gave the required permissim, obsery ing ironically that, as to the keys, he thought they might do without them for any use they had made of them. (A laugh.) THIRD EDITION.

LAMBETH POLICE COURT.—(Tins DAY.) The adjourned summons taken out by Mr. Roberts, at the instance of the managers of the metropolitan theatres against Mr. Charles Morton, managing director of the Oxford and Canterbury Hall Company (Limited), for the performance of a stage play contrary to the act, was re sumed this afternoon. It will be recollected the magistrate last Friday week postponed giving his decision in the case as to whether or not the extraordinary successful shadow illusion, entitled " Hodge Podge," at the Canterbury Hall, was a stage play, in order that Mr. C. Morton might make a special application to the Lord Chamberlain for a license. Mr. Besley, attended as heretofore for the metropolitan managers ; and Mr. Prentice, instructed by Mr. Mercer, of the firm of Mercer and Mercer, 9, Mincing-lane, solicitors for the company, appeared for the defence. Mr. Norton, seeing the whole of the parties in court, said—l understand from Mr. Besley that the Lord Cham berlain has refused to grant Mr. Morton that which ha required. _ . . . Mr. Prentice—That, sir, is not quite to the case. I attend here to-day to ask that you will postpone your deci sion for a few days. A petition has been presented to the Lord Chamberlain, and no answer has yet.•:been returned. Mr. Morton is here, sir, and he will, if you de- - sire it, tell you what has been done. It is not correct to say that the license has been refused. Mr. Besley—The answer, I believe, that has been given by the Lord Chamberlain is, that when the theatre in the Canterbury Hall is properly constructed, he will grant the required license. Mr. Norton—ls Mr. Morton here ? Mr. Prentice—He is, sir, and quite prepared to tell you everything that has been done. I have to ask, sir, whether you are aware that in your absence, an application has been made to your colleague, Mr. Elliot, for another summons against Mr. Morton for infringing the 15th section of the act whereby he has in curred a penalty of £5O each night "Hodge Podge" is shown at the Canterbury Hall. I think it exceedingly unfair that behind your back, sir, such an application should be made, and I cannot think that the lessees of Her Majesty's and and other theatres can be parties to such an application. Mr. Norton (having read the notes of the application re ferred to) said—lt appears to me the great difficulty in the matter is who is to move. It appears as if in these matters the Lord Chamberlain was altogether superseded; and the question that occurs to me is whether or not we are not now trenching too much upon his powers. Mr. Besley—l hardly think that such can be the case. Mr. Prentice—The parties represented by my learned friend appear as if they were desirous of being public pro secutors.. (Laughter.) Mr. Roberts—lt is laid down in the 15th section of the Act of Parliament that every stage play should be previous to its representation submitted to the Lord Chamberlain, and that in the event of such not being done the parties repre senting a a piece should be fined£2 for each representation Mr. Prentice—That is a matter not at present before the Court, as the summons is not actually granted. Mr. Roberts—The magistrate said he would grant the summons, but that he would consult you, sir, before he named a day for the hearing. Mr. Norton—The summons has not actually been granted. I have seen Mr. Elliott, and he infor►ned me that he directed that in the event of any new point arising in this case you could apply to him on Thursday. The real matter before the court is an application for the post ponement of my decision. Mr. Roberts—lt is an attempt to delay your judgment. Your remarks, sir, on the last occasion, have been well advertised, and instead of gracefully bowing to your decision and withdrawing the objectionable performance, its popularity has been greatly increased. If " Hodge Podge " had been withdrawn there would have been no second summons asked for. Mr. Prentice—What we desire is time to see the result of the application to the Lord Chamberlain. That the other side wish to refuse, and I must say that the metro politan managers are acting in the most oppressive manner. Mr. Norton—Does the Lord Chamberlain know that the case has been already adjourned ? Mr. Prentice—The fact, I believe, was mentioned in the petition that has been sent to him. Mr. Roberts—Lord Sydney and the Hon. Spencer Pon sonby have both visited the Canter bury Hall, so they are well acquainted with the matter. If Mr. Morton will with draw the piece, I will withdraw the other summons. Mr. Prentice—l should not make any reference to the other summons. If you give your decision to-day, sir, and it should be against us, I shall have to ask you for a case, in order that the whole question may be tried in one of the superior courts. I shall not advise my clients to withdraw the-piece. Mr. Norton—Well, I think, under all the circumstances, I had better pronounce a decision. Mr. Morton must pa £1 and the cost of the summons: Mr. Prentice—And you, sir, will give us a case ? Mr. Norton—Certainly. Mr. Roberts—There is a case already before the Common Pleas from Birmingham. Mr. Prentice—That shows that we also ought to have one. _ . —. Mr. Roberts—lt is not quite so bad as this one. Mr. Prentice—This, I've no doubt, is the worst you ever heard of. (Laughter.) We are no parties to the case you mentioned. Mr. Roberts—Since your remarks, which appeared so favourable to Mr. Morton, the Canterbury Hall has been crowded to excess. Mr. Norton—My remarks were favourable to Mr. Morton, and also, I thought, to the Lord Chamberlain. Some change will eventually be made, and I thought that change might as well be made gradually as suddenly. Mr. Roberts—There is a negotiation, I believe, going on between the managers of the theatres and the proprietors of the music halls to see whether matters cannot be arranged between them. • Mr. Norton—l'm very glad W frpr it. Mr. Morton—l have heard nothin' of it yet, sir. Mr. Norton—Well, it is the best thing-that can be done. If Mr. Morton follows my advice ho will - withdraw the piece until the matter is fully decided. iece Mr. Robe rts— E ve ry night the p is represented, Mr. Morton incurs four penalties. The actors can be taken into cnstody by the police, so can the audience. Mr. Norton—The police, I'm afraid, would be transfixed by the beauty of "Hodge Podgo"—(laughter)—so you would not have to expect much from them. (Laughter.) I strongly advise that nothing should be done in the other mat ter until this is disposed of. You can apply to Mr. Elliott of course, but if the objectionable but beautiful piece " Hodge rodge" is withdrawn, you ought to be satisfied e t n h t e i hen hearing n e t g e r e e f d t i h n e to m a a t b t o e n r d he f o f e r rf forone ef the expenses the Morton r e o s f judges, and the parties retired.
