POLICE INTELLIGENCE,—This Day: MARLBOROUGH-S TREE T RIOTOUS CONTACT AT THE SEUPENTINE.—James Tooley, a rough young man, described as a carman, was charged. b sfore Mr. Tyrwhitt, with wilfully damaging boats at the Serpentine. Mr. Herbert Williams, Superintendent of the Royal Humane Society, and residing at the Society's Receiving house, Hyde -park, said—About one o'clock on Sunday Morning I was disturbed by hearing loud shouting and swearing, proceeding from the direction of the Serpentine. I went to the Serpentine, and there found about 13 boats being towed about by a number of rough fellows, who were amusing themselves by shoving the boats into one another. With the assistance of two men I gave chase, and all the fellows got away with the exception of the prisoner. They had first taken one of the Royal Humane Society's boats, and besides damaging it had thrown the sculls into the water. Mr. Tyrwhitt—So that if any one had been reported to be drowning, you could have rendered no help ? Mr. Williams—That was the case, sir. We had a similar charge about five years ago, when a number of boats were damaged. On the present occasion the breakages to the Society's boat amounted to £l, and several of the water men's and the boat of the Ranger (the Duke of Cambridge) were also scratched about and damaged so that they were hardly fit to be used. The prisoner was very abusive, and swore a good deal when spoken to. Mr. Tyrwhitt committed the prisoner for seven days for the mischief he had done, stating that he would take no fine at all. It was a fortunate circumstance that no lives were lost, particularly as the Society's boat was taken away. Mr. Williams said the boat , was taken from the boat house, where it was always placed at night ready for use, THAMES. CHARGE or EMBEZZLEMENT.—John Wyer, a middle-aged and well-dressed man, was brought before Mr. Partridge, charged with embezzlement. Mr. Charles Young, solicitor, stated that the prisoner had been in the service of Mr. Bellamy, tank-maker, of Byng-street, Millvrall, as traveller and collector, at a salary of £2 55., per week, besides which all expenses were paid. It had been lately ascertained that the prisoner was a de faulter to a large amount. He should be prepared to go into three cases of money received and not accounted for, and prove them beyond a doubt. The prisoner received £6 3s. of Mr. Stamp, New Crane, Shadwell, on the 24th of March last ; £lO of Messrs. Knox and Wilkinson, of- Savage-gardens, Tower-hill, on 30th of June ; and £1 159. of Graham and Sons, of Twig-lane, Upper Thames-street, on the 20th of the same month. None of those sums had been accounted for by the prisoner. He had apporpriated them to his own use. There were many other cases. All the customers had not been waited upon, and the whole of the prisoner's defalcations had not been discovered. When the prisoner was arrested by police -sergeant Pullen, No. 10 K, Mr Bellamy said, " You have been robbing me, Mr. Wyer." The officer reminded the prisoner that what he did say would have to be repeated before a magistrate. Prisoner said he hoped he would forgive him, and he would render an account of the money he had received and not paid in. "'"ln answer to Mr. Partridge, the solicitor said that the duties of the prisoner were to solicit and receive orders, and to pay over all monies he received to his employer daily, and the cheques and draughts to Glynn's banking house. Mr. Partridge asked the solicitor when the prisoner entered Mr. Bellamy's service. Mr. Charles Young replied in February last, and he com menced his system of embezzlement soon afterwards. Evidence having been given in support of Mr. Charles Young's statements, _ _ Mr. Partridge remanded the prisoner until Thursday next. WESTMINSTER, SINGULAR APPLICATION.—A very respectable middle aged woman stood forward this morning amongst the appli cants to Mr. Selfe, the presiding magistrate, for redress. Mr. Selfe—What do you want ? Applicant —To puilish a man that has very much mis behaved himself. Mr. Selfe—What has he done ? Applicant—Killed my kitten this morning. Mr. Selfe—Accidentally? Applicant—No, wilfully and shamefully. Perhaps your worship will let me tell you about it. The man lives in the parlours of the same house as I do in Vine-street, Mill bank, and has got a little child as well as me. I got a kitten to amuse my little child, and they were both playing with the kitten when, I suppose, in their pulling it about, they hurt it, and it scratched his little child's face, when she, of course, cried, and her father came up and killed my kitten. Selfe—Perhaps he thought the kitten was out of its mind. Applicant—l am sure I don't know what he thought, but it wa s a great shame to kill the kitten. It was a very li ttle kitten, and when it was pulled about of course it scratched. Mr. Selfe—How did he kill the kitten ? Applicant —He threw' it down in the yard and stamped on the poor littl e thi ng until he forced its entrail s ou t. That Was treating it very cruelly, because it merely scratched, which is natural for a cat to do. Mr. Selfe--Do you wish to have a summons against him for cruelty to your kitten, by killing it in the way you have described, or do you want compensation for its value ? Applicant—l should certainly wish to punish him for the cruelty. He had no right to have done such a cruel thing. • Mr. Selfe---You may take a summons for the cruelty. XONEY MARKET AN , COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The Money Market continues in a very active condition, and the Bank minimum of 3 per cent. is the general rate required by the bankers and brokers. In a few exceptional instances 2i per cent. is taken, but then the paper is exceedingly good and short dated. The Metropolis Sewage and Essex Reclamation Company has been projected under a special Act of Parliament for the purpose of utilising the sewage of the northern area of the metropolis, the conces sion of which has been granted to Messrs. Napier and 'lope. The capital required is £2,100,000 in scrip certificates of £lOO, to be hereafter divided into shares of £lO each. The transfer is to be made to the company on condition of the payment to Messrs. Napier and Hope, under the provisions of the act, £50,000 in fully paid-up shares of the com pany, and a small contingent percentage of the net profits. The concession recites, that, in the opinion of the board, the works proposed by Messrs. Napier and Hope are calculated to effect the three following objects, namely :- 1. To divert the sewage from the Thames. 2. To render it innocuous, by its application to growing crops. 3. To realise the greatest money value of the manure contained in it. The first article confers upon Messrs: Napier and Hope " the absolute and exclusive right to, and property in the sewage," for a period of 54 years from the passing of the act, but makes the following provision in reference to the application of the net profits resulting from the scheme after the expiration of four years from the Passing of the act. Previous to the expiration of that period, all the profit results to the company. After deduction of the annual charge for "money borrowed," and of the " working and estsblishment expenses," the net profit shall be applied--Ist. In payment of interest at 5 per cent. per annum on the share capital ; 2d., in payment in equal moieties ! 0 the sh are h olders and the Metropolitan Board of t he further profits up to 15 per cent. ; 3d., in divi sion of profits exceeding 15 per cent. and up to 25 Per c e ,„,. . • taer.... b etween the shareholders and the Metro- Boar ford,nßoard, in theproportion of one-fourth to the 25 per ' and three -fourths to the latter ; 4th., after ce nt., the division again to become equal.

ROSA BONHEUR.—The Imperial Court of Paris has just heard an appeal against a judg ment of the Civil Tribunal of Fontainebleau in an action brought by M. Pourchet, of Lyons, against Mdlle. Rosa Bonheur, for breach of contract. In Decemlier, 1860, the artist engaged to deliver to M. Pourchet a painting to be executed expressly for him, at the price of 10,000 f. As the work was not sent at the specified time, M. Pourchet wrote to complain of the delay, and a long correspondence en sued, which ended in the absolute refusal of Mdlle. Bon heur to fulfil her engagement. M. Pourchet then com menced legal proceedings, and demanded 15,000 f. damages for breach of contract, but the tribunal rejected this de mand, and condemned the artist to deliver the painting within six months under a penalty of 20f. for every day's delay beyond that time. Against this judgment Mdlle. Rosa Bonheur now appealed, and repeated her refusal to deliver the painting. The court quashed the judgment, and condemned the appellant to pay M. Pourchet 4,000 f. damages, with all costs of suit. FORD'S THEATRE AT WASHINGTON. Ford's Theatre inside presents a scene of the greatest con fusion. All the properties, wardrobes, furniture, &c., are piled upon the stage preparatory to packing and removing. The purchasers propose to pay 10,000 dollars to Mr. Ford this week, when the property will be conveyed to them. Strangers in the city are continually calling and asking admission to the building, but thus far none have been admitted save a few members of the press. Notwith standing the close surveillance of the guards who have had the theatre in charge the building has been roughly used. Curiosity seekers have completely whittled away the bench upon which " Peanut John" sat whilst holding Booth's horse, and about a yard square has been cut away from the green baize carpet, surrounding the spot where Booth's feet struck when he jumped upon the stage after shooting the President One of these curi ous visitors entered the saloon adjoining the theatre, where Booth took his last drink of brandy just before he murdered Mr. Lincoln. The visitor inquired of the barkeeper, "Have you the same bottle on hand out of which Booth drank on the night of the assassination ?" "Yes, sir." "A n d the slime sa b m ra e nd b y ra i n n d it?" ut ‘‘ ofYes'sir." " Can I h ave a d r i nk of that that same bottle ?" "Yes, sir." "Let's have it." The visitor tastes the brandy, makes a d continues :—" And that's the same brandy wry face, an that Booth drank ?" " Yes, Sir." " Well, I don't wo n d er that he killed the President. A drink of that brandy would make a man kill his grandmother."—New York Times, June ,28. THE ATLANTIC CABLE. —Owing to the rough ness of the weather the coaling of the Great Eastern has been delayed during the past week. No coal, however, will be taken on board after Friday next, and on Satur day, at four o'clock, the Great Eastern will leave her anchorage four miles below the Nore, for Valencia, whence having made the splice with the shore end of the cable, she will probably start across the Atlantic on the Tues day following. VERDICT OF MANSLAUGHTER AGAINST A RAIL WAY POINTSISIAN.-013. Saturday a coroner's jury returned a verdict of manslaughter against Henry Bevistock, a pointsman at the Great Western Railway Station at Wolverhampton.

Futher details have been received of the burning of the William Nelson, already announced by telegraph. The French steamer Lafayette left New York on the morning of the 23d June, and 'lathing extraordinary occurred until the afternoon of the 27th, when the look-out man signalled two boats, apparently laden with men. The steamer bore down to them and took on board the occupants, who proved to be the captain, 23 men, And 6 women from the ship William Nelson, of Now York. The captain made the fol lowing statement : " I am an American, and my name is John Levy ; my ship was of 1,039 tons burthen, and had on board a crew of 30 men. I left Antwerp on the. 2d June, and Flushing on the 4th, with 600 tons of rails, different other merchandise, and 450 emigrants, bound for New York. Yesterday, I had just taken an observa tion, which showed that I was in 40 deg. 21 min. north lat. and 50 deg. 21 sec. west long. from Greenwich, when I learned that my men, in fumigating the vessel, had set her on fire. I made every effort to extinguish the flames, but they spread with such fearf u l ra pidit y th a t our labour was unavailable. I then ordered the four boats to be launched. In the disorder which had seized every one, they were immediately filled by those persons nearest at hand. I remained on board the vessel, but was soon surrounded by flames, and was obliged to throw myself into the sea, when I was picked up by one of the boats. My ship was all on fire, and my unfortunate passengers were perishing in the flames, or drowning, without my being able to assist them. The scene was horrible. This morning at four o'clock everything had disappeared. My four boats were laden with reople ; I ordered them to fol low, and proceeded in a north-westerly direction, thinking I should have a chance of meeting with some ships. The two other boats cannot be far off." The Captain of the Lafayette, in order to pick up the two other boats, determined to cruise around the spot for a time; shortly after a sail was seen ahead, and at sunset a boat was also observed at a great distance. The steamer bore down upon the latter, but the sailing ship, which proved to be the Ilmam, of Finland, being nearer, reached before the Lafayette, and took on board the people in the boat, consisting of a woman, four children, and nine men. An officer was sent from the steamer to the Ilmam to inform her captain of the saving of the people from the two other boats. The 14 rescued from the third boat then went on board the Lafayette, and declared that they had parted company at four o'clock with the boat still missing, on board of which were 37 persons. The Lafayette continued to cruise about, firing a gun or sending up a rocket every five minutes until 11 at night, but without success, when she resumed her voyage, after having received from the captain of the Russian ship the promise to remain all night on the spot to endeavour to rescue the other boat. The' Ilmam was then bound from Havana for Marseilles. The 44 persons picked up received every attention on board the Lafayette, and the Baroness de Stoeckl, wife of the Russian Minister at Washington, made a collection in aid of them, which amounted to 2,862 fr. The whole were landed at Havre on the arrival of the steamer the day before yester day. Among the episodes of the catastrophe is mentioned that of a young woman only a few months married, a n d ex pecting shortly to be a mother , who in the confusion which prevailed while in the water clung to a seaman 'whom she mistook for her husband: The sailor swam away with his burthen to the boat, and they were both picked up, but the young wife's stupefaction on discovering her error was painful to witness. Thero are, however, still hopes that the husband may have been saved in the other boat. An emigrant was so fortunate as to save his four children from both fire and water, and got them on board one of the boats. His wife was, however, still on the burning ship. He swam back to the William Nelson, got on board, threw his wife into the sea, jumped in after her, and again reached the boat with her, thus saving his entire family.

THREE Ii t )!JSES BURNED DOWN AT TOTTENHAM FROM WANT OF WATER.—On Saturday morn ing, about two o'clock, the in::: tbitants of the usually quiet neighbourhood of Tottenham wore thrown into a state of the greatest excitement in consequence 0; the sudden out break of a most destructive fire in one of the nor;' l Y - erected buildings in the Seven Sisters-road, Tottenbant The flames commenced from some unexplained cause in the lower part of the building, and they spread with such rapidity that in the course of a few minutes the build ing was on fire from the base to the roof. Information was at once forwarded to the various fire stations, and nume rous engines- of the London Brigade, with three of Shand and Mason's land steamers, wero early in attendance, but unfortunately, not'a drop of water could be obtained for nearly one hour, and the consequence was that the flames extended to two other buildings. Water was eventually obtained, and the firemen went to work, but the fire could not be extinguished until the three houses were burned down. It is unknown whether the property was insured. Another serious fire broke out at South Hackney Downs. The flames commenced in a 12-roomed house, and although the engines of the Brigade and the land steamers by Shand and Mason were early in attendance, and a good supply of water was readily procured, the fire could not be extin guished until the building was destroyed. The Princess Clotilda, who has not accompanied Prince Napoleon to Havre, will soon set out, it is said, for Prangins with her two children. The Princess will after wards, iu all probability, go on to visit her family in Italy. HOUSE OF COMMONS' KITCHEN.—In the Session just closed a list made up to the 26th of June shows that 5,234 dinners were supplied iu the dining-room of the House of Commons, averaging 78 on each of the 67 days on which any one dined there. Complaint is made of the small size of the apartment and the want of ventilation. The largest number of dinner§ served on any one day was 172, on the Bth of May. CITY OF LONDON•. The nomination of four citizens to serve in Par liament took place in the Guildhall. Th,'3 attendance of the Livery was very numerous, but the Lyall element seemed to be greatly in the aseenClant, as throughout the entire proceedings the name of Oat gentleman was heard proceeding from all parts ea' the hall. The writ having been read, Mr. Alderman BESLEY name forward and 'said, the city of London had always been renowned for their love of fair play, and he hoped they would be true to that principle to-day, and give a fair hearing to every gentleman that would address them. (Cheers.) By doing so they would set an example to the whole of the electors in the kingdom. Mr. BUXTON came forward and nominated Baron Rothschild, who, he said, had faithfully discharged the duties of their representative for many - years. (Cries of " He's always voted right.") He felt that a question of civil and religious liberty was involved in Baron Rothschild's return, and as the citizens had so long supported him, he felt they would not desert him now. He was a supporter of Lord Pal merston, whose policy had tended to increase the reputation and prosperity of Great Britain. W. LEAF, Esq., seconded the nomination of Baron Rothschild. Mr. SMITH, of the firm of Smith, Payne, and Smith, proposed Mr. Crawford, who, he said, had secured the gratitude of the citizens of London by his conduct in the past Parliament.. Mr. Crawford had been a consistent supporter of the great Liberal party, whose exertions had secured to them the priceless blessing of peace. (Cries of " Oh! What about Denmark ?) He felt the gentleman who had so faithfully represented them had a right to ask, with the greatest confidence, for a renewal of his trust. (Hear, hear.) Mr. G. MOORE seconded the nomination. Mr. HANKEY, of the firm of Thomson, Hankey, and Co., nominated Mr. Goschen, who, he said, would, as he had hitherto done, fearlessly and firmly represent the citizens in the new Parliament. He had fully come up to the expectations that had been formed of him, and he showed him to be fully alive to the duties of a representative of such a great and important city as that of London. Mr. GASSIOTT seconded Mr. Goschen, but the free and independent electors were disinclined to listen to the worthy citizen. Mr. BARING, of•the firm of Baring Brothers, pro posed Mr. Lyall amidst the most vociferous cheer ing. The cheering, yelling, hissing, and shouting became so uproarious that but very few of the ob servations of the hon. gentleman could be heard ; he said he was convinced that Mr. Lyall would prove a useful and energetic representative, and he pro posed him to the citizens with the greatest confidence. Mr. MASTERMAN seconded Mr. Lyall. Mr. FIGGINS proposed Mr. Alderman Lawrence. Mr. HOCKS GIBBS proposed, and Mr. WOLVER LEY ATTWOOD seconded, Mr. Fowler amidst much confusion. The respected candidates then came forward and addressed the Livery, but the confusion, shouting, whistling, and other discordant noises became so great that beyond four or five feet from the speaker all was dumbshow. Mr. Goschen seemed to be the Liberal candidate mostly in favour, and although the supporters of Mr. Crawford evidenced by their applause that they were neither feiv nor indisposed to loudly cheer their candidate, the Conservatives struggled hard to obtain for their candidate a hearing, but the shouts of " silence" proceeding from their own partisans entirely pre cluded such a proceeding. The Sheriff then came forward and called for a show of hands, which he declared to be in favour of the four Liberals. A poll was demanded, and it was ordered to com mence to-morrow morning at eight o'clock, and to finally close at four. A vote of thanks to the Sheriff terminated the day's proceedings at Guild hall. WESTMINSTER. The nomination of candidates for tho City of Westminster took place to• day in Covent-garden, at 12 o'clock, and the attendance evinced the interest that was felt by the inhabitants generally, for there were not less than 4,000 persons present. As regarded the demonstrative element of the con stituency, the inference would be that the Conser vative candidate would be successful. The candidates addressed the electors, and at the conclusion the show of hands was in favour of Messrs. Smith and Mills. A poll was then demanded on the part of the other candidates. LAMBETH. The nomination of candidates to serve as mem bers in the ensuing Parliament took place this morning at 10 o'clock, in front of the Horns Tavern, Kennington ; the Hon. Henry Onslow, returning officer, presiding. Dr. BENJAMIN EVANS proposed, and Mr. J. RICHARDSON, C.E., seconded, Mr. Doulton, the late member. Mr. ROBERT TAYLOR next proposed, and J. A. LYON seconded, Mr. Alderman Lawrence. The nomination of Mr. Hughes was made by Mr. WILSON, and seconded by Mr. BARKER. Mr. Haig (Conservative) was proposed by Mr. FOWLER, and duly seconded. Each candidate afterwards addressed the large lassembly, ,and all were listened to with the best of order, with the exception of the Conser tive, who was jeered and mocked a little by the more democratic-looking portion of the crowd. The Returning Officer then took a show of hands, and declared the result to be in favour of Messrs. D oulton and Hughes. A poll was demanded on behalf of Mr. Alderman Lawrence and Mr. Haig, which will take place to-morrow. MARYLEBONE. The show of hands was in favour of Messrs. H. Lewis and Chambers, and a poll was demanded on the part of Lord Fermoy. TOWER HAMLETS. The nomination of candidates to represent the borough of the Tower. Hamlets took place this morning at the hustings on Stepney-green. Mr. C. S. Butler and Mr. Ayrton, the late members, having been duly proposed and seconded, and no other candidate coming forward, were duly elected. Mr. Butler and Mr. Ayrton severally addressed the electors, thanking them for the honour they had again conferred on them, each gentleman e n t er i ng into a lengthened exposition of their political senti ments, and concluding with moving a vote of thanks to the returning officer, which having been carried, the proceedings terminated. GREENWICH. The nomination of candidates for the representa tion of the borough of Greenwich took place this morning at the hustings in front of St. Alphege Church, Greenwich. Long before the hour named an immense multitude assembled, and there was the usual amount of noise and confusion as each of the candidates appeared to address the electors. The returning-officer, Mr. F. Chapman, having read the writ, Dr. PRIOR PURVIS nominated Mr. Alderman Salomons for re-election, which was seconded by Mr. BASSETT, of Woolwich. Sir THOMAS M. WILSON, Bart., of Charlton-place, nominated Sir John Heron Maxwell, Bart., but his observations were lost amidst the great noise which prevailed. Mr. YOUNG seconded the nomination. _ _ _ Mr. W. ANGERSTEIN, M.P., w h o h as ret i red from • the representation of the borough to contest West Kent, nominated Sir Charles Bright, and, in an address of some length, cautioned the Liberal party upon the danger of disunion, which might result in the return of Sir John Maxwell, who would go into the lobby of the House of Commons, and vote against those beneficial measures both politically By MA GNETIC TELEGRAPH. , GRAVESEND, Monday Morning.

Longman and Co., consequent upon the retirement of Mr. Green. The health Of that gentleman for a long time has been declining, and at the recent death of Mr. Roberts, another partner, it was decided by the heads of the firm to admit two of the oldest assistants in the house—Mr. Thomas Reader, who for many years has subscribed for the firm, estimating the quantities of all the new books they might want, and Mr. Robert Dyer, the well-known country traveller for the house. Both these gentlemen have been upwards of 30 years in the employ of the firm, In future, the style of the firm will be Longinans, Green, _ _ Reader, and Dyer. The house has been established since 1720. In the present monthly part of the Bookseller there is a history of the firm since its foundation, when one Thomas Longman married the daughter of John Osborn, then one of the most considerable booksellers of London, to the present time. FATAL ACCIDENT AT THE THAMES EMBANK MFICT.—On Saturday Henry White, who was employed working the steam engine near Westminster-bridge, fell into the river and was drowned. At the Capel-street, Dublin, police-office, on Fri day, the three men, Henry Norris (who has several aliases, and who described himself as a lieutenant in the American navy), Charles Somerville, and William Harris, were brought up , for further examination into the charges on which they were arrested, of forging money orders as from the Nether-Stowey Post-office, in England, and fraudu lently obtaining goods on them from the establishments of Mr. Marsh, jeweller, and Messrs. Todd and Burns. After several witnesses bad been examined the case was furfher adjourned. The Court of Assizes of the Ardeche has just tried a farmer named Chabaud, aged 34, residing at Vagna4; on a charge of having, in the evening of April last, murdered a hairdresser, named Roux, established at Vallon, a neighbouring village. On the morning of April 6 the body of Roux was found by the roadside quite dead from two gunshot wounds in the head and thigh. As the pockets of the deceased had not been rifled, it was evident that robbery was not the motive of the crime, but public opinion unanimously accused Chelan(' as the murderer, as it wads well known that Roux was able to give most impor tant evidence against him in a judicial investigation which had just been ordered. A month or two before Chabaud had bought some live stock of a M. Leydier, of Lagorce, and given in payment a promissory note for 224 f., signed with his own name. At the same date Chabaud had gone to M. Lauriol, and got him to write a promissory note for a like amount. When the note given to Leydier fell due and was presented for payment, Chabaud pretended that he had already paid the debt, and as a proof produced the note written by the notary, adding that the bill held by Leyden must have been forged by him, as it was signed " Laurent Chabaud," whereas he (Chabaud) could :not write. Ley dier at once appealed to the tribunals, and an investiga tion was ordered: As soon as Roux heard of this he said that he himself had written the disputed note for Chabaud and signed it with his (Chabaud's) name, and that he was afraid of getting into trouble about it. When this fact be came known to the police, Chabaud was arrested, and wit nesses came forward to depose that they had seen Chabaud armed with a gun, following Roux along the road on the evening of the crime, while others proved that they had seen him hurrying home from that direCtion at a later hour, and the evidence satisfactorily proved that Chahaud was the murderer. The jury accordingly brought in a verdict of guilty, but with extenuating circumstances, and the Court condemned him to hard labour for life. FIRST BLOOD.—The Hon. F. J.

In addition to tho two "cracks," the field consisted of Mount Palatine, Sealskin, Wolsey, Free dom, and one of Lord Glasgow's Young Melbourne colt; the last three being "dark," and "backward" besides, espe cially Lord Stamford's and Lord Glasgow's colts, both of which will see a better day, judging from the speed they exhibited on this occasion. The support awarded to Wol sey beforehand for the Derby (for which race he was backed to win a very large stake at 50 to 1) encouraged the book makers to accommodate all-comers about the two favourite; of which Robin Hood (who was ridden by Fordham, owing to SirJosoph Hawley requiring Wells) maintained a slight call to the last ; although there was not much to choose between them, owing to the confident manner in which Mr. Merry backed Student after the numbers went up. No excuse was offered for either, nor could one be made, but the veriest tyro cannot fail to have noticed the improvement in the appearance of Student (who had likewise the advan tage of a change of jockeys) since Stockbridge, where he looked moist in his coat, and by no means so blooming as to-day, when he wore the same cloth bandage on his off fore leg as on his two previous appearances in public. After the "cracks," the only horse backed for money was Mount Palatine, but as he had been recently suffering from a sore back, his chance was soon extinguished. The race was almost a counterpart of last year's for a certain dis tance, so far as the two favourites were concerned, except that Robin Hood, who made all the running after the first two hundred yards, required a great deal more riding than The Duke, consequently Fordham was "at" his horse from the start, which led to the impression that he was in trouble all the way; and as Student appeared to be pulling over him at the top of the hill (to which point Wolsey, Free dom, and Lord Glasgow's colt - also ran fast), "Mr. Merry wins" became the general chorus. In making the descent, however, Edwards had his work to do to keep his horse straight, and Student swerving precisely us Liddington did last year half-way down, his fate was sealed, as Fordham did not wait for Edwards to gather his horse together, nor could the latter " come again" as the game son of Orlando did ; and Robin Hood improving the further he went, won in gallant style by two lengths. The Chesterfield brought out a larger field than was ex pected, the whole of the 11 coloured going to the post, ex cept New Victoria. The public horses comprised Jack in the Green, Chapel Royal, Proserpina, Plutus, Dalesman, and The Student, only the latter of whom carried a penalty, one of 71b. for his Stockbridge dead heat ; whilst the "dark" lot consisted of one of Lord Glasgow's Rapid Rhone family, Countess Amy, by St. Albans out of Cantina (who won this race in 1858), Claverhouse, by Skirmisher out of Amy Scott (very backward), and Valeria, by Newcastle out of Emily, a clever, short-legged, strong filly, and a most favourable specimen of her sire's progeny, but rather back ward in preparation. She was fancied a good deal by Lord Stamford, nevertheless, though his lordship was somewhat doubtful as to her quite getting home, from the cause assigned; and after Student, Dalesman, and Jack in the Green, Valeria was backed for more money than anything, although Plutus (who was ridden by Hunter, in conse quence of Grimshaw's accident the day before) had nomi nally a shade the call in price. When the numbers went up, as little as 2 to 1 was at first taken about Student, but at the break-up of the Ring 4 to 1 was offered on the field. Jack in the Green and Dalesman had strong parties, but the former left off with the decided call of the Baron's good-looking colt, in spite of the " whisper" that the latter had improved so much since Ascot as to justify a large outlay on him at 40 to 1 for the Derby before the race ; five points less at the same time being taken about "Jack," whose forward running with Robin Hood and Student in the Troy Stakes was not overlooked. How true that form was the result testified, for though the Duke's colt finished nearer to Student than ak Stockbridge, it must not be for gotten that he had 71b extra here, which he carried as gallantly up the severe finish of the Chesterfield course as his predecessor, Liddington, did last year. He won so very easily, in fact, that there were plenty of offers to take 20 to 1 about the winner for the Derby afterwards. Jack in the Green is certain to see a better day ; and so will Dalesman, Plutus, and Lord Glasgow's colt, who, though outpaced at starting, showed staying powers of no mean order by finishing third, in front of the speedy lot, consisting of Proserpine, Valeria, &c. Scarcely any betting took place on future events, with the exception of a strong demonstration being made against FILLE DE V.A.in for the Goodwood Cup. At one time as much as 12 to 1 was laid against the French filly. The Goodwood Stakes during the week was scarcely men tioned. CLAREMO NT still holds the position of first favou rite ; but the stable at the present time eve not backed him for a penny, and it is just on the cards that at the eleventh hour they may turn round and support AuRICULA, Who is actually " thrown in." There are several small meetings this week, viz., Abingdom, Hungerford, and Stamford ; but, as there are so many horses engaged at the different meeting; it would be wise to know that they have arrived before investing on any of them. At Abing don QUEEN OF Tamers ought to win the Trial Stakes. The Berkshire Stakes Mr. Bray ley should win with which ever ho trusts, &mu -wart or PELIOS. The Burghley Handicap MOOSE should win, unless he is in reserve for the Goodwood Stakes. In his absence HELEN will be most worthy of support. SIBERIA, if she is pulled out, will win both the Stamford St. Leger and the Sixth Wothorpe Biennial. A. FRESH MAN. RACING FIXT RES FOR 1865. JIT Pontefract Abingdon - .
