No. CCCII. A RETROSPECTIVE. GLANCE AT THE WARWICK MEETING. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUE. SlR,—Warwick geeerally, for years past, has been the ground on which the last grand moves respecting the Doncaster St. Leger are made. This year what has been done is all in favour of Sengstress and Trousseau, the former having been backed for above three thousand pounds at odds varying from 4 to 1 to 5 to 2; and the latter for a tolerable amount at various prices from 10 to Itol3to 2. Stockwell has given way slightly, having declined half a point; and Daniel O'Rourke is not over steady in the market at 9 to 2 and sto 1. Harbinger was the only other Leger nag inquired after, and he was in but little request a; 9 and 10 to 1. These moves would lead one to suppose that Songstress and Trees seen will finish in very prominent positions. My opinion of the St. Leger candidates will he published in the course of the next eight-and-forty hours, when I shall lay before my readers every scrap of information that I can obtain concerning this important etake. I now return to the Warwick running, which was not remarkable for anything on the first day but the victories of Pastry-cook and Led; Evelyn. The former's per formance in the spurt for the Castle Park Stakes was a most unexpected one; for after her wretched exhibition at Wolverhampton, where she was completely lost in the race for the Chillington Stakes, won by the Verbena colt, few gave her credit for being able to win on this occasion. I understand, however, that when she ran before she was far from being up to the mark, and at Warwick she was in good condition, which makes all the difference. She bed the race in hand from end to end, and won very easily. Prevention, the crack, was beaten a length by Eliza for second place. The race for the Leamington Stakes was all one way, Lady Evelyn biding her time, coming out when required, and winning cleverly by a length from Hirsute, who had half a length the best of Goldfinder. Administrator was a very indifferent fourth. Cleveland, who is an over-rated horse, or did not run on his merits, finished fifth, with Cariboo and Grief immediately behind him. On the strength of this performance Lady Evelyn has been ad vanced to the premiership for the Cesarewitch; a stake which she has no chance of winning, Bst 61b being too stiff a weight for her unct nein ladyship. In the race for the Borough Handicap yesterday, Charming Woman, having run herself out before reach ing the distance, was headed by Cory bantes, Romeo and two or three others, Corybantes going in and winning cleverly by a lengts. The County Stakes was almost decided before start ing, for nothing had a chance of beating Gladiole and Paddy Bird, who made a fine race in, the former win ning only by a neck. Doubt, favoured by her moderate weight, 7st:finished a good third; but as to the rest, they were all out of the fray—regularly beaten off. Warwick won the Town Plate very easily by a length; Ephesus, with the steadying weight of Bit 91b up, being second. This was a good performance of the last-named horse, and worm beariug in mind. The Warwick Cap produced a beautiful race between Teddington and Little Harry, the former winning, with difficulty. by a head. My judgment was tolerably successful throughout the meeting, baying selected Lady Evelyn to win the Lea mington Stake*, Gladiole and Paddy Bird to be first and ' second for ho County Stakes, Warwick or Cotton Lady to win the Town Plate, and the winners of several of the smaller stakes of little account. I reversed the posi tions in the Warwick Cup, placing Little Harry first and Teddington second. The first portion of my remarks on the Doncaster Meeting will appear to-morrrow.—l am, Sept. 9.

Ward, Isaac Haw kins Morrison, and Edward Henry A'Court, he co operated in the ensuing bombardment of Copeelnigen; and, in 1810, commanded the boats of that sloop in a night attack on an armed felucca, carry fifty men, in c ampeaa hy Bay, which vessel, together with all the other craft in the harbour, he succeeded in bringing out, although opposed by the heavy fire of several forts and the small arms of the various crews. He had previously taken part in many expeditions of a similar nature, and on ono occasion had been very severely wounded. He was placed on half-pay in 1812 ; and, unable to procure further employment, accepted the rank of commander February 10, 1843. Commander Black married, August 13, 1813, Miss Jane Currie, and has issue a son and three daughters. Commander James Cooper Bennett died at Rotheray August 29.

While next serving in the Sybille, 44, flag-ship, in the West Indies, of Sir Charles Rowley, he was promoted to the rank of lieutenant, by commission dated Aug. 22,1821; hut, prier to his return to England, in 1823, he had the misfortune to lose an arm, in consequence of which accident he was eventually awarded, Jan. 24, 1824, the usual pension of 911. ss. In the course of the later year Mr. Bennett, who bad been employed for short periods in the Arachne, 18, and Ramillies, 74, again sailed for the West Indies in the Rattle snake, 28, Captain Hugh Patton, and there joined the Isis, .50, flag-ship of Sir Lawrence Win.

He wasofficiallypromoted sent rank on Oct. 26, in the same year, and then, en feebled in health from the effects of long servitude in small vessels under a tropical sun, returned home. Since that period, unable to procure employment afloat, he has twice accepted the appointment of ins slanting commander in the Coast Guard. On the first occasion he filled the post from June 15, 1832, until 1835. His resumption of the office took place Feb. 25, 1843.

The Queen's yacht Victoria and Albert was laid up at her winter moorings to-day, and her ship's com pany transferred to the Royal George yacht hulk. The Arrogant, 46, Captain Robinson, and the En counter, 14, Captain Gordon (screw frigates) came into harbour yesterday, it is reported, to be paid off all standing. Captain Freemantle, who had the Pique, is named as the immediate successor of Captain Robinson. The ship's company of the Niger screw sloop, Com mander Heath, have been this day paid wages to six months, and granted a fortnight's leave. The Simoom screw steam troop frigate, Captain Kingcome, went out of harbour this afternoon, and took in her powder while under way at Spithead, and sailed for Pembroke with the masts, &c,, for jury rigging the Windsor Castle, 140, for navigation to this port. Tile Electra, 14, Commander Morris, has hauled off from the dockyard to her hulk, where she is com pleting her fit out for sea. The Fearless surveying steam-vessel, Captain Bullock, left port this morning for the Channel. PLYMOUTH, WEDNESDAY.—The mail steam-packet s Cleopatra, Captain Cumming, sailed last evening for the Cape of Good Hope and the Australian colonies. She left Deal at 10 2.6 on Sunday, and, being under steam all the way, excepting one hour, reached the Sound at 10 45 on Monday morning. The Cleopatra had 185 passengers, including a large proportion of German Jews, several Frenchmen, Scotch agricul turists, &c. She has a full cargo of fine British ma nufactured goods and 155,0001. in specie ; of this 80,0001. is freighted for Adelaide or Port Philip, at the option of the charterers. One of the owners, Mr. Lamont, assisted Mr. M. Wilcocks, the agent, in the dispatch of the ship, whioh received at Plymouth two cows, 100 sheep and pigs, 750 fowls, and a large quantity of fresh provisions and vegetables. Another of the owners, Mr. M'Keen, proceeds in the Cleopa. tra, which will take the first suitable freight home to Great Britain. IMPROVED PUBLIC OMNIBUS.--Yesterday much interest was excited in Great Scotland-yard by the appear. ance of a very light and tastefully constructed vehicle for public conveyance, which had been brought to the spot for the inspection of Commissioner Sir R. Mayne and other gen tlemen previous to its proceeding in an experimental trip with the inventor, M. Franklinski and friends. The exa mination showed the great conveniences and comfort in its construction, there being a separate compartment for each passenger about 30 inches in width (14 inches wider than in the ordinary omnibus), thus affording also an effectual bar against the pickpocket or other annoyances, but at the same time giving the power of communication between each com partment when desirable. Each is lined with crimson cloth, fitted with looking-glasses and effective ventilating as also the means of communicating with the conductoreba bell. This portion is arranged for 12 passengers, an d th se pa. apparatus! ap proach is by an outside gallery on either side, with is by rate door to each compartment.

S ÜBM A RINE TELEGRAPH COMPANY -BETWEEN FRANCE A.ND ENGLAAD. The report by the managers of this company, pre sented at the meeting of shareholders held at the seat of the society, 10, Place de la Bourse, Paris, on Moodey last, states that— " The revenue account, after payment of all ex penses properly chargeable under that head, gives a net disposable balance of 2,0311. 115.9 d., admitting of the declaration of a dividend, for the six months end ing the 30th of June last, of a sum equal to 51. per cent. per annum on the capital of the society, and leaving a surplus of upwards of 2001. The managers think that a dividend, at the rate of Si. per cent. per annum, payable out of the first six months' earnings of a public undertaking cannot but be considered as satisfactory; but when due weight is given to the disadvantages which have necessarily impeded the introduction of an enterprise of so novel a character, the expenses which have unavoidably attended its opening, and the hitherto incomplet e state of all the traffic arrangements, the returns must be consi dered as highly encouraging. But even this result, however, does not give a correct view of the value of the undertaking, as the earnings of the line have been unduly taxed by the payments for the transmission of ti:e society's messages between Dover and London. Had such payments, during the past six months, been made upon the scale contained in the agreement lately entered into, the disposable balance would have been increased by 1,1331. 155.; and the dividend to the 30th of June would have been, with precisely the same amount of traffic, at the rate of 8/. per cent. per annum, in lieu of Si. The amount paid to the South Eastern Railway Company, was 2,3691. 12s. 3d.; the amount that would have been paid under the provi smarts of the proposed land agreement was 1,2351. 17s. 3d. ; giving a balance of 1,133/. 15s. The wet [lagers, next advert to the proposed agreement between the society and the ' Subm ar i ne Telegraph Company between Great Britain and tiro Continent of Europe," lately established i n London under a royal charter of incorporation gra n t e d by her Majesty Queen Vic toria, a subject which ha s n consideration for many months s gaged their anxious past. This charter c has been granted to ena bl e the a telegraphic s ub mar i ne cowun atiompany t o establish Englaed and Belgium, and subject t ic ton betv;een ment with the society for the o purpose f all arrange tually carrying o ut the exclusive Privileges granted by the respective Gover n m en t s o f France and .Belgium, and of fully devel o pi ng th e system of international submarine telegraphs. T o secure these result. visional agreement has b e[ n entered into p by t r ir tnanagere with the chartered c ompany for anequal division of the traffic receipts, and for a joint mana ge _ went of the two undertakings; such agreement to take eflect from the opening of the public traustnisaion of messages of the Belgium line, and to continue in force during the existence of the two concessions, or of either of them, or until a more complete atualg tuna tion of the companies can be effected. Independently of the general policy of identifying the interests of the two companies, the managers have had their atten tion particularly directed to the very favourable posi tion which the promoters of the Belgian line occupy, in regard to a renewal at the expiration of the term of the present concession, the Belgian Government having expressly stipulated to give the preference to the original concessionaires. In the traffic agree. went to be submitted to the shareholders, the managers have inserted a provision, under which the society will derive an Equal benefit with the char tered company in any such renewal. With regard to the agreement for the transmission of messages between London and Dover, the terms which the managers have ultimately obtained are so favourable to the interests of the society, that there is little oc casion for any further statement on the subject, beyond a repetition that, had the provisions of the agreement been in force during the last six months, the society would, upon the same amount of traffic, have paid a dividend at the rate of 3 per cent. per annum more than they are now enabled to do. The managers look to the result of the proposed arrange ments with great confidence. With the traffic to be received on the opening of the Belgian line, added to the great increase of telegraphic intercourse between London and Paris, which may reasonably be expected to follow on the opening of the uninterrupted land line, and the consequent almost instantaneous com munication between the two capitals, the managers confidently anticipate that a dividend of from 81. to 10/. per cent. will be immediately realized on the capital of the two companies, irrespective of that gradual, but certain, increase which will arise as additional foreign lines are opened, and the in, tercourse by telegraphic agency becomes more and more a matter of social necessity. The managers have stipulated that the society should be represented on the board of the chartered company, as well as on that of the land line. The managers have the satis faction to report that the cable between Dover and Calais is in every respect as perfect as the day on which it was laid down. It is not intended to issue the 25,000 shares in reserve, as the proposed arrange ment with the chartered company will preclude, at least for some time, the necessity of laying down a second cable between Dover and Calais; and under the terms of the proposed traffic agreement, in the event of any additional capital being required, the chartered company is to provide it. Shareholders in the society have the option of exchanging their shares for those of a like amount in the chartered company. In con clusion, the managers congratulate the proprietors on the very favourable aspect of their affairs; and whilst they are engaged in one of the most interesting ad ventures of modern science, it is satisfactory to find that their enterprise, in a commercial point of view, is second to few. "The capital account shows a receipt of 100,0001., on so many shares of 1/. each, and an expenditure as follows :—By amount paid to the concessionaires and entrepreneurs, under the terms of article 9 of the Acte de SociLe, cost of experimental wire, cost of existing cable, and amount paid on account of the wires in connexion with the submarine cable at Dover, 70,2331. 7s. 3d.; caution money in the hands of the French Government, 2,0001. ; amount paid for office furniture, 2161. 12s. 9d.—total, 72,4501. The balance of 27,5501. is composed of 2,550/. value of shares held and 25,000!. shares un in the hands of the company, allotted. " The revenue account shows that 3,5461. Ss. sd. has been received for messages transmitted from November 30, 1851, to June 30, 1852. The expenscb at the London, Dover, Calais, and Paris stations, in cluding printing, stationery, postage, and other inci dental charges, were 238/ 123. 9J. ; salsries and wages, 8051. 17s. id. ; rent and taxes (London, Paris, and Dover), 170/, 6s. 10d. ; directors' allowance (half a Sear under article 10 of the Act of Society), 3001. total, 1,514/. 16s. Bd., giving a net profit of 2 031/ lls. 93. " Since November 15, 1851, the company has trans mitted 9,045 messages from London to Calais, for which it has received 6,889/. 13s. 91. Two thousand seven hundred and ninety-tour of these pounds have been paid to the South-Eastern Railway." The submarine telegraph is assuming proportions which fast outstrip the most venturesome predictions of its originators, and promises befor e long to em brace the globe. It is scarcely three years since the proposition was first made to connect London Paris by an electric wire, whi c h shouldcrOzsls and channel, and the conception was encountered witbge neral incredulity. Some d en i ed the possibility of transmitting the subtle fluid through the immense body of water ; others affirmed that the wire could the numberless perils of the not be made secure in the bed its permanence.

BELFAST, TGESDAY.—List evening Colonel Port lock delivered a lecture in May -street Church to a large audience, on the subject of the lately discovered salt mines in th e ne i ghbourhood of Carrickfergus ; Sir R. Murchison in the chair. The Gallant Colonel set out by a lucid description of the several strata of soil forming the inner part of the earth, and of the nature of the substances contained in different dis tricts, bringing in as parallel cases with theYpresent, the salt mines of Spain and Cheshire, and showing that the soil in both these places was of a nature simi lar to that of the mines near Carrickfergus. He then went into the conjectures which had been thrown out as to the depositions of salt, and expressed himself dissatisfied with the reasons which had been given for these depositions. He then explained the artificial manner in which salt is produced, described the several beds of soil met with in the mines of Carrickfergu s , and traced the strong similarity existing between them and the mines of Cheshire. An immense soil of strata would have to be gone through before coal, to a great extent, would be available; but everything was due to the exertions of the high-spirited nobleman (th e Marquis of Dawnshire), who had so praiseworthily taken the matter in hand, and whose exertions could not fail to benefit the country.—(Cheers.) Some of the produce of the mines hap been examined by that very talented chemist, Dr. Hodges, who found them fully capable of rewarding the labours of the noble proprietor. After entering largely into the different beads of this part of the subject, he referred to the progress which the study of geology was making among all classes, eloquently alluding to the time when even the pulpit was made the means of cp posing the spread of that science, and to the present, when all parties are freely acknowledging the import ance of a proper study of geology. He concluded his lecture, in beautiful terms, by saying that by the study of this science we were opening to our minds the great bank of nature, and permitting ourselves to see the great power rin d wisdom of the Supreme Being. Sir R. MURCHISON, in handsome terms, alluded to the exertions of Colonel Portloek in the stud of the c and conv e y e d to the 'Gallant Colonel' erieo thefgeology, thanks of the meeting for his very able and instructive lecture. He also announekd that the concluding general meeting of the British Association would be held in that place on Wednesday evening, and the meeting then separated. inisil BOG BUTTER. Mr. J. A. BRAZIER read,a paper on this subject yes terday in Sect ion B. He said, the substance bearin g this name is found accidentally in the various boggy usually p districts of Ireland, sometimes also in Scotland, and is had most thing reserved in small keg , in which the matter -, probably been originally deposited. No aPPears to be known as to what this substance formerly was ' , s o u r thel . time of its deposit.

It is nearly insoluble in cold water, somewhat soluble in hot, but very soluble in alcohol and ether, especially in boiling, from either of which fluids it is deposited in white granular crystals ; the alcohol or ether separated from the crystalline de posit, which was usually done by expression, was of a deep yellow colour, and containing apparently a small quantity of the oleaginous matter above-men tioned in solution, and imbibing more powerfully the peculiar odour of the interior of the mass. A clear portion of the substance taken directly from the keg gave a fusing point of 45 deg. C. (113 deg. F.), after repeated crystallisation from alcohol, tint! the super natant fluid no longer possessed the slightest yellow tinge when cold ; and finally, once from ether, the fusing point of the :substance was raised to be tween 52 and 53 C. (125. 6 deg. F.), (127. 5 deg. F.) This method of purification was repeated several times, the fusing point of the body remaining con stantly the same, the substance itself resembling, after fusion, ordinary stearic acid. Before sub jecting the substance to analysis, I thought it more advantageous to submit the body to a more rigorous method of purification, and adopted that of saporifica tion. With potass this body forms a beautifully clear transparent soap, entirely soluble in water, with the exception of the small quantity of yellow oil which is seen floating on the surface of the solution, and is easily separated, together with other accidental impu rities, by means of a separating funnel or filtration. The solution of the soap, on being decomposed by the addition of a small quantity of hydrochloric acid, the fatty acid separates. This has to be well washed with large quantities of water, and subjected several times to considerable pressure. In this state the fusing point was found to be 53 deg. C. (127.4 F.), and the same portion of acid having undergone the same rou tine of purification a second time, the fusing point was not altered. An analysis of the body thus puri fied furnished numbers corresponding to the formula, C. 32, 11. 230-4, and for which I propose the name of Butyric-limncdic acid. The aoid was subsequently recrystallised from alcohol from which it was dept,_ sited, usual, h Iv e v i e n r, .gafirutcaisnidisou, fusing crystals;a o r lpwnoi nt this isw deposited satsa f r tfe o ion m u tneh t rd la el e tsaotc e a t ilbd lo s e e or% was carefully beautifully wh n l i t nit e esam sa e t l i y n , y s a 3 pp d e e a g s . a e n , c . e ; re semblingl`)77lll.46;:atand upon analysis, yielded numbers corresponding.. nr.otLhuacvke entirely same a s b dried,eb before, I a r z e e fu th si a o t n h t e ha c n oul A a l before-mentioned formula.

CURRAGEI SEPTEIBER MEETING.—,TIIESDAY. The September meeting at the Curragh commenced this day. Tho weather was very fine, and the attend ance numerous. The principal event of the meeting was the race for the Anglesey Stakes, and it was largely speculated on, and ended in the discomfiture of the backers of the favourite, an animal named The De formed, which derived her cognomen from her having been foaled with a pair of very crooked legs, and pur chased by her present owner, when a yearling for 151., winning after a most exciting race by a length; her stable companion, Light of the Harem, running second. After the race Mr. Copperthwaite was offered and re. fused 1,0001. for The Deformed. The Scurry Stakes were won by Light of the Harem as she pleased. The best race of the day, and the very best Corinthian race we have ever witnessed, was won in three heats by Sister to Batteraway, ridden by M. W. Kennedy, each heat being won by little more than half a head. The following is a return of the running:_ Scurry Stakes, 5 sovs. each, 25 added. Anglesey Post.

We have much pleasure in announcing that Captain Huish, the general manager of the London and North- Western Railway, accompanied by Mr. Roney and Mr. Binger, arrived in Dublin on Monday evening, by the express boat, from Holyhead. Captain Huish's object in visiting Ireland is to make himself fully and prac tically acquainted with its railway system; and also, what is most important for the interests of the country, to consider, on the spot, the various plans that have been submitted to the London and North-Western Com pany for the acceleration and improvement of the com munication between London and Dublin. We have every reason to believe that several important improve ments in the communication between the two coun tries will be the result of Captain Hu ish ' s visit; and it also affords us much gratification to communicate the fact, that it is his anxious desire to give the benefit of his great influence and authority in effecting these ob jects. The warm and cordial manner in which Captain Huish spoke of Ireland at the recent meeting of the shareholders of the Chester and Holyhead Company, will, no doubt, be fresh in the recollection of our readers. In illustration of the importance of this visit, we may state, that if some of the alterations suggested be adopted, a passenger leaving London in the morning will be able to get to bed late that night at Belfast, Cork, or Galway. Facilities such as these cannot fail to be of the greatest value in promoting the material interests of this country. The stay of Captain Huish (who is accompanied by Mrs. Huish) in Ireland will be about three weeks.—Dublin .Evening Post. FIRE.—DESTRIICTION OF A BARN AND A QUAN TITY OF HAY. —About nine o'clock on Saturday morning a fire broke out in the extensive barn and shippon belonging to Mr. Jabez Parker, of Tong Head Farm, in the township of Tong, near Bolton. The building was about fifteen Yards by 8 yards, the upper portion being filled with hay, and the lower affording accommodation for about 38 head of cattle. There were about 600 cubic yards of hay in the loft, worth about 2001. ; and most of it was either destroyed or rendered worthless. The fire engines of Mr, Hardcastle, Messrs. Ashworth, and the Bolton Corporation, were instrumental in saving the house ; but the fire had got such hold upon the mass of hay that it was impossible to extinguish it with the supply of water available at the time. Mr. Parker had no insurance on the property, and his lois will oe the more se verely felt from the circumstance that during the prevalence of disease among cattle he lost stock of the value of GOO/. Nothing is known of the origin of the fire. THE CONVICTS SARAH AND ANN RIMMEL—The only persons sentenced to death by Lord Campbell at the late Liverpool Assizes were the two women convicted of frequent attempts to poison the daughter of Sarab, and the niece of the other prisoner.
