The publication of THE SUN NEWSPAPER commenced this daN at 5 minutes past 3 o'clock. LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, JUNE 19, 1835. Mr. COBBETT, the Member for Oldham, but far better known as the author of the Political I?egistei ,l, • died yesterday at his farm in Surrey, at the mature age of 73—but one fortnight after his last prediction, that he had full ten good years yet to live ! In every sense of the word, Mr. COBBETT was a remarkable man. His physical, were only exceeded by his intellectual, energies. He had unrivalled faculties of application —perseverance that nothing could daunt—great natu ral sagacity, often misdirected, but powerful, even when most perverted—much and various literary infor mation, chiefly, however, of a practical character— consummate knowledge of every-day life in all its forms and gradations—which, joined with humour, pathos, sarcasm, readiness of conception, and felicity of exe cution, whether applied to the drawing of character, or the description of that luxuriant, sylvan style of home scenery in which he so much delighted, rendered him one of the most accomplished and successful writers that England has known since the days of DRYOE. We may add, also, that he was one of the most original ; for, confident in his own powers, he seldom availed himself of the aid of books, or the ar guments of his contemporaries ; but stamped and co loured everything he said and wrote, with the peculiar impress and hue of his own mind. There was no mistaking the writings of WILLIAM COBBETT for those of any one else. He set all serious imitation at defiance. But perhaps his most striking peculiarity was the air of truth and earnestness which he imparted even to his most preposterous absurdities. He was more con vincing in the wrong, than such a tom-tit of a politi cian as ROEBUCK would be, in the right. He made his readers believe, or at least attend to, his reasonings, in spite of themselves—so complete, apparently, was the conviction, in his own mind, that he had adopted the only sound view of the case. Mr. COBBETT'S egotism has been much condemned and ridiculed. He certainly was one of the most con ummate egotists that ever lived ; but then he was also the most amusing. He had none of the maudlin sen sibility of ROUSSEAU, or the stern, selfish gloom of BYRON ; but threw a social, sunshiny air over his talk about himself, which redeemed it from insipidity, and pleased the reader, even while it made him smile. Besides, never was man more thoroughly sincere in his egotism. Ho did not ask you to believe, but he him self was firmly of opinion, that Wm. COBBETT was the greatest man of the age I He asserted this from no silly principle of vanity, but simply because he felt it to be an important truth, which he ought nei ther to deny nor conceal. Hence whatever subject he discussed always had reference to himself. Fain would he have kept " I"—for he despised the more modest " We"—out of the field ; but he was under the spell of that officious pronoun ; and he either could not, or would not, break the charm. In this respect he was the very antipodes of SCOTT, who throughout his voluminous works, makes a point of keeping the author in the back ground. As a writer, COBBETT has been constantly reproached with vulgarity. That, conventionally speaking, he was apt at times to be vulgar, we grant ; but that he showed anything inherently mean, or frivolous, or af fected in his writings—and this we take to be the es sence of vulgarity in authorship—we utterly deny. His intellect was a plain, blunt, straight-forward one, scorning all the refinements of art ; and his style is every whore characterized by the same contempt for all West-end models. His writings may be homely, but generally speaking, they are not vulgar. If, how ever, it be vulgar to express plain ideas in plain lan guage ; to write for the majority as the majority can best understand ; to be invariably forcible and often picturesque in description ; to enforce opinions in the pure, idiomatic vernacular ; to think for oneself, without regard to what etiquette may say ; if this be vulgarity, then indeed COBBETT was a vulgar writer ; but grant this, and, Heaven help us, what a shoal of common-place, petty, insipidly-elegant authors, whose sole merits are the steering clear of unfashionable , expressions, are at once raised to the ranks of gentility! We have observed that COBBETT is a picturesque , writer. He is so in an eminent degree, and always judicious in its application. Thus, in speaking of the probability of the Reform Bill being thrown out in the Lords, he expresses himself in the following language, than which nothing can be more suitable to the quality of the audience he is addressing :—" Reform is as a feast prepared ; we smell it from the kitchen ; our appetites are whetted for the assault ; woe, then, to those who shall come and tell us there is to be no dinner I" Of the same picturesque character is his famous "Rat-Hunt ;" to say nothing of those exqui site sketches of English scenery, in which even his dryest and most practical writings abound. In the incidents of their lives, perhaps also in the structure of their minds, there is no slight resemblance between COBBETT and DEFOE. Both were the lead ing mob-writers of the day ; both were alternately in favor of, and against, Government ; both were equally English at heart ; both used the same forcible, unadorned style : were equally devoted to rural occu pations ; died at a good old age ; and wrote nearly the Same number of works. DEFOE was, at one period of his life, the idol of the British nation and Parliament. So was COBBETT, when Mr. WYNDHAM stated in the House of Commons, that he deserved a statue of gold. Both afterwards fell from their high estate ; but DEFOE'S case was the hardest, for he died in penury and obscurity, deserted even by his own children ; while COBBETT, though no longer what he once was in po pular influence, gained the great object of his ambition, —a seat in Parliament. In thus comparing COBBETT with DEFOE, we do not mean to assert that he possessed anything like the fancy or invention of the latter. He could never have penned such works as Robinson Crusoe, or the " Plague ;" still, in his " Hints to Young Men"--which, strange as the assertion may appear, contains one of the finest love-tales in the lan guage, the account of his own courtship—he has shown himself not far inferior to the author of the " True-born Englishman." We have said little of COBBETT as a political writer, for this reason, that every one is familiar with the ec centricities of his Register, for the last forty years and upwards. He was certainly not remarkable for steadi ness, his politics being less the results of reflection than impulse. Wrong or right, if he once took up a crotchet, he would stick to it, till some new vagary turned his thoughts in a different direction. If his readers went with him, well and good. If - not, no mat ter : he would flounder on through the bog by himself. He was great in attack, but weak at defence. He knew how to bully, but if his adversary met him with his own weapons, he was apt to slink off, like a dog with his tail between his legs. Thus, when in one of his cleverest Registers he committed a most tremendous assault and battery on Mr. O'CONNELL, and Mr. O'CONNELL replied in the same style ; he abruptly dropped the discussion, notwithstanding he promised to renew it; and ever after, was one of the warmest of the Agitator's friends. Though an acute, COBBETT certainly was not a sound, reasoner. His logical faculties showed themselves by fits and starts. There was nothing continuous about them. Nevertheless with all his faults—and no politician ever had more— his death has left a blank in this department of litera ture which will not be easily filled up. He was a Titan in intellect, without a prototype, and without a successor. While the public hail the advent of Municipal Re form with feelings of unmixed satisfaction, there are certain parties who cannot be induced to co-ope rate in forwarding the good work, or even to look upon it with a favourable eye. The parties to whom we allude are not the Tory Members of the House of Commons—for they, bless them I are desperately eager for Corporation Reform ; but the members of the Cor porations which are destined to undergo the ameliorat ing operation. It is not, we apprehend, merely the "hor ror of falling into nought"—though that is by no means a pleasing sensation—which agitates their hearts. There is something beyond this. There is the fear of what may come when they have " shuffled off " the Corporation coil, to harass and torment their minds. When we think of the deeds they have done, we are not at all surprised that they should look to the future with any thing but agreeable forebodings, or that they should strive by every means in their power to avert the doom which awaits them. But we can give them no hope. The irrevocable mandate has gone forth, and they must make up their minds to suffer with a good grace—to eat the fruit of their own doings, however bitter it may be, without making wry faces. The attempts they are making to oppose Lord J. RUSSELL'S Bill, by sending their town-clerks as re pmentatives to London to hold a little Parliament for discussing the Bill while it is passing through the great one, will, they may rest assured, do them no good, but a great deal of harm. Their safest course would have been to remain quiet, and not to attract the public attention to their proceedings, to which they must know that the greatest suspicion will attach. This little Parliament wet yesterday, for the first time,. at the British Coffee-house, Cockspur-street ; and we understand the greatest unanimity prevailed as to the , necessity of giving the most uncompromising opposi tion to the hateful measure. The Hon. Members for Liverpool, Leicester, and Lincoln, or the three great L's as they have been designated, particularly distin-' guished themselves by their eloquent appeals to jus-' tice and liberty, while they advocated the cause of their. injured Constituents. Before the House adjourned, iti was moved, seconded, and unanimously resolved, that no power on earth should ever prevail on them to as- , sent to the Corporation Reform Bill, unless a clause, were introduced granting a full indemnity for the past. The Member for Lincoln remarked that his constituents felt particularly anxious on this point, as no longer ago than Saturday last they had con verted their leasehold property into freehold on the payment of a fourth of the value of land and a ffilt of the value of houses, which property had been hitherto leased at nominal rents with nominal fines on renewal. The whole of the Paris Papers of Wednesday have been received. The Bill for the indemnification of America has received the Royal Assent ; so that France only waits for the apology of Congress to com mence the fulfilment of her part of the treaty of 1832. The KING has thought proper to follow the example of Great Britain with respect to the question of Spanish intervention. The Moniteur of Wednesday, in its official part, contains the following article : " It being the intention of the King to authorize French men who are so inclined to enter into the service of her Ma.. jesty the Queen of Spain, and at the satoe time preserve their quality of Frenchmen, the demands for such authorization should be addressed to the Minister of Justice, conformably to the 21st article of the civil code." The Royal President of the " best of Republics 7 does not think it worth his while to make the least reference to his Council. This may be impolitic, but is at least honest, for we are very certain that his Cabinet had no voice in the matter. It is very true ORICES OF STOCKS THIS Bank Stock 16 3 per Cent. SON 3 per Cent.

The reports of the capture of Bilboa, circulated in London by the Carlist agents, two days since, are totally unfounded. It is quite clear that ZUMALA CARREGUI intended to attack it with all his forces as soon as he learned that VALDEZ had given orders to the Christinos to evacuate Tolosa, and actually marched an army against it. But ESPARTERO, who appears not to have approved of the scheme proposed by VALDEZ, threw a reinforcement of sixteen thousand men into the town before the Carlist General reached it, and at the head of six thousand troops, marched himself to the succour of Vittoria. The Sentinelle des Pyrenees of the 13th says, " letters from Bilboa of the 10th state, that the English man of war stationed in the port has landed all its guns, and the men ne cessary to serve them, on the news that the Carlists were going to attack Bilboa. The French ship has not yet arrived. Fortifications were erecting on all sides, and the whole town was under arms." The French Journals contain some smart attacks on the proceedings which are still going forward in the Court of Peers. Their Lordships are really becoming objects, rather of commiseration than of anger. They know not what to do, and many of them are heartily ashamed of the part they have already taken in this disgraceful affair. FRENCH FUNDS.—Paats, JUNG 17. Five per Cents., 108 f. 40c. 15c 25c.

The only article of any political interest in the German Papers is one written in answer to the argu ments of the Journal des Debats, deprecating the idea of French and English intervention in the affairs 'of Spain. The writer tells the Doctrinaires to beware of confounding Spain with Belgium, and asks what would become of them if intervention would lead to hostilities, of which they do now calculate either the existence or the importance ? France will answer this question in whatever way she pleases. For our part we cannot regard it in the light of a menace. Austria is in no disposition to menace France and England.

This was en action to recover three quarters' rent of a house at Peckham, held by defendant from plaintiff, at the yearly rent of 281. A witness proved the defendant's occupation.—The rent was originally 381., but had been reduced to 241. The Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 18/. PASCOE V. FIDDOCK. This was an action on a deed of Mortgage, brought to reco ver a sum of 1001., and 201. interest. The defendant pur chased the business of the plaintiff, who is a waggoner, residing at Penzance, in Cornwall, and gave him the deed in question for 150/. Of this a sum of 501. had been paid, and the present action was brought to recover the balance. Mr. CeownEe appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. BUTT for the defendant. The deed was put in and proved, and the Jury found for the plaintiff 105/. EXCHEQUER COURT.-(THIS DAY.) ABEL V. RUDDIFORD. Sir W. FOLLRTT With whom was Mr. RICHARDS) stated that the plaintiff and defendant in this case were both in the woollen-drapery trade. In consequence of some malice the defendant had spoken certain words of the plaintiff of a slan derous nature, by which his character as a tradesman had been much hurt, and which had made him to be a severe sufferer in his trade. The Jury being London tradesmen, would feel how necessary it was that there could be no greater stab given to man than to set afloat some rumours as to the solvency of a tradesman. He trusted when he had proved his case the Jury would give exemplary damages. John Chapman, a clothier, of Frome, Somersetshire, knew both the plaintiff and defendant. In the month of March last witness asked the defendant, if it would be proper to do busi ness with the plaintiff? He said, "Do as you like ;he is one of old Downes' men, or a friend of old Downes." Two let ters were put into witness's hands ; it was his handwriting ; but it was not true. He came there to speak the truth on his oath. He wrote the letters when he was irritated, and had had too much beer. Had known the defendant for sixteen years. Had seen him that morning, but had no conversation with him respecting the evidence he was to give. The de fendant did not say to him that the plaintiff was not worth credit. William Downes was formerly a woollen-draper in the City. In March the defendant said he trusted witness did not discount any bills for the plaintiff; if he did, he would he done out of them. In consequence of that, witness refused to take any more bills from the plaintiff. Cross-examined—The conversation took place in the street, where he encountered the defendant promiscuously. He now lived on his wife's property. Had no office, and did not make a practice of discounting bills. Had been a bankrupt about six years ago, and was a twelvemonth before he got his certi ficate. The Commissioners adjourned his last examination sine die. This was the case for the plaintiff. Mr. BUTT submitted, that there was not sufficient evidence to support the declaration. His LORDSHIP said there was, upon filo second count, some evidence, though it was slight. Mr. BUTT then addressed the Jury for the defendant. He said the only question in the cause was, whether the commu nication made to Downes was a privileged one, or not? It was the most likely way, that the words spoken ..ere in an swer to a question. If so, then they would be privileged. But, even if not, damages were to be given merely for the damages sustained in the eyes and esteem of Mr. Downes—a man who had been bankrupt—in prison—whose last examina tion had been adjourned sine die—who hail not obtained his certificate for a whole year. He submitted, that if the Jury felt themselves bound to give the plaintiff a verdict, the small est damages would satisfy the justice of the case. The Learned JUDGE summed up, and told the Jury, that, as no evidence had been given in support of the first count, they must find for the defendant upon it. The plaintiff was en titled to a verdict on the second count, and the question of damages was peculiarly a question for their consideration. The Jury consulted for a minute, and returned a verdict upon the second count for the plaintiff—Damages one farthing. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. (THIS DAY.) OLD COURT. Robert Potter, aged 26, was indicted for the wilful murder of Henry John Pedley on the 6th of June. The prisoner was also charged with the same offence upon the Coroner's warrant. The prisoner who appeared much dejected, pleaded not uilty. Mr. PAYNE conducted. the prosecution, and Mr. BODKIN the defence. Ca Connell of No. 13, Lase Ales Court, Piro. .:1-:, St. Giles's, stated that on the night of Saturday, June 6, he saw the prisoner drunk in Salutation Court where the prisoner lived, next door to the house occupied by the deceased. The pri soner and a woman named Benson, who cohabited with him, were quarrelling, and the deceased was endeavouring to part them. Subsequently the prisoner fought with a man named Carr, who was beaten, and ran out of the court, when the prisoner remained, conducting himself in a very violent manner, with a knife in his hand, and in a few seconds he ran at the deceased, who was standing at his own door, and made a thrust with his knife at the right side of his belly. Blood flowed, and the de ceased exclaimed that he was stabbed. He was conveyed to Hospital. Cross-examined---Is an Irishman, but does not know what countryman the prisoner is. Had a quarrel with him about a quarter of an hour before this affair. James Ponton, a shoemaker, of No. 15, White Hart-street, Drury-lane, confirmed this statement, and added, that when the police.was sent for, the prisoner's house was locked up, but the mob broke open the door, and the prisoner and the woman Benson were found in bed with their ciothes on. Mrs. E. Cormack, of 11, Church-lane, St. Giles's, stated that the deceased was employed by her as a collector of rents, and that she heard the prisoner, who had a knife in his hand, de clare he would stab the first person he met, at the same mo ment making a stab either at her or the deceased, but the blow glanced off from a basket in her hand, and slightly wounded her in the wrist. He then stabbed Pedley. Cross-examined—Believed the prisoner would have struck any other person he met. The persons outside the Court could not see the disturbance. Daniel Harrogan, of No. 28, Charles-street, Drury-lane, confirmed the evidence of the former witnesses. Some of the witnesses stated that there was a great number of persons, and others that there were very few. Edmund Davis, police constable, E 74, took the prisoner out of the bed in which he had concealed himself. He said, " I know what you want me for; I know I did it, but it was in my own defence." Witness found a table knife, which was covered with wet blood, in the room. Cross-examined—Disturbances of a serious nature frequently occur in that neighbourhood amongst the low Irish. William John Johnson, police constable, E 156, corrobo rated this statement. Mr. Campbell De Morgan, house-surgeon at Middlesex Hospital, saw the deceased a few minutes after 12 o'clock on the night in question. He was wounded on the right side of the belly, and the intestines were protruding. It was just such a wound as would be caused by the knife produced. Inspector Jenkins, of the E division, stated that he was pre sent when the deceased made a declaration which Mr. A. S. Laing, the Magistrate, took down. Mr. BODKIN objected that either the Magistrate or the Clerk should be present to verify the declaration. Some argument took place, but the Court ordered Mr. Laing to be sent for. During the absence of the messenger, Henry Toben was called, and stated that he was the brother-in-law of the de ceased, who was always called Henry John Pedley. Mr. Laing having arrived, declared the paper produced to be the statement he took down from the mouth of the deceased in the hospital. It was as follows :—" The prisoner was quar relling with and ill-using his wife, and I told him ho ought to be ashamed of himself. Two or three more chaps came down the court, and he had a fight with them. Presently he ran up stairs, and then he came down with a knife and ran it into me. Whether he intended it for me, or for the others, I do not know. It was done in the open air, and I gave him no pro vocation." The prisoner put in a written defence, in which he stated that he had a very imperfect recollection of what had taken place ; but his wife was grossly insulted, and he was ill treated by the witnesses for the prosecution, and he only acted in self defence. He had no intention to injure the deceased, with whom be had no quarrel. Mr. BODKIN, for the defence, called— Ann Benson, who stated that the prisoner was very drunk on the night in question ; and that, in passing by some boys at the corner of the court, he accidentally ran against Con nolly (who is lame), and he struck witness on the nose with his crutch. The boys assaulted the prisoner, and knocked witness down, and she was very much ill used. She ran into the house next door to her own for refuge, and soon after wards heard a man say—" I am stabbed." Witness had known the prisoner twelve years, and he was very quiet, except when in liquor, which was seldom. Several witnesses, shop-mates to the prisoner, described him as a remarkably quiet man. Mr. Justice PARR summed up. The Jury returned a verdict of Manslaughter. The RECORDER immediately proceeded to pass the sentence on the prisoner of transportation for life. CARLOW ELECTION. By a letter received this morning by Mr. Sheriff Raphael it appears that the contest is carried on with great spirit by both parties.

New York Papers have been received at the North and South American Coffee-house to the 23d May : they do not contain any information of consequence. From Montevideo they state that the session of the Legislature of the Oriental Republic of the Uruguay was opened on the 15th February, at Montevideo, with a very long message from the President, of no great importance.

DRURY-LANE THEATRE.—Those persons who cannot, or who will not, pay the price of admission to the Italian Opera-house, had last night an opportunity of seeing at Drury-lane Theatre, at the price usually charged for the ad mission at that theatre, the performances of Taglioni and Varin. The Maid of Cashmere was the ♦ehicle for the exhi bition of her talents—a ballet-opera of no great merit, and in which the music and the. singing act only as foils for the tri umph of the genius of dancing. Mademoiselle Varin is an effective and vigorous dancer ; she can bound with great force from one part of the stage to another, and will, no doubt, en title herself to that sort of reputation which is founded on the " brittle strength of bone." This lady has her excellencies, but she is " mortal born ;" she achieved all that a mortal could achieve, and being of the " earth, earthy," will share the com mon fate of all mortal things. Taglioni is the goddess of dancing—she is all grace—she is instinctive with grace, and cannot perform the most unimportant part of her destiny without performing it in a manner in which grace is peculiarly predominant. The other parts of this ballet-opera were well sustained, and together with the petite comedy of My Wif e ! What Wife? and the afterpiece of Secret Service, in which Mr Diddear, Mr. Warde, and Mr. W. Farren supported the principal characters, were well received. The house was crowded in every part. THUNDER STORM.—A heavy storm of thunder and lightning, together with tremendous storms of rain, visited the village of Moulton, near Stratford, Essex, on the 17th instant, and did considerable injury to the premises of Mr. Bates, of that place. The electric fluid entered near the top of the house, shattered a stone door, threw down a chimney, and dislodged the coping of the roof, which was transported to the distance of 12 yards. NEW COURT. James Brignell and William Muntz, were indicted for having unlawful possession of sixty counterfeit half crowns and seventy two counterfeit shillings. K e y s , a police officer, stated that on the Ist of June he went in company with two other officers to a public-house in St. Giles's, where he saw the prisoners in company together. Brignell on perceiving the officers dropped a bag in which the counterfeit coin was found. The jury acquitted Muntz, but returned a verdict of Guilty against Brignell. The COURT immediately sentenced the prisoners to two years imprisonment, the Common Sergeant remarking that he was sorry the statute did not empower him to pass sentence of transportation. During extreme hot weather, the importance of supplying dogs with a sufficiency of water cannot be too fi e quently or too strongly inculcated. Care should be taken by those who keep dogs to have water so placed as to be acces sible to the animals at all times. Where this rule has been strictly observed, no cases of hydrophobia are known to have occurred. PARLIAMENTARY SUMMARY. In the LORDS little other public business was transacted than the presentation of petitions. The Duke of BEAUFORT pre sented a petition praying that beer should not be allowed to be drank on the premises of beer-houses. Several petitions were also presented by the Marquis of LANSDOWNE, praying the house to legislate against dram-drinking. In the COMMONS, ballots were fixed but were not proceeded in, owing to the non-appearance of the parties concerned. The Report from the Monmouth Election Committee, declar ing Mr. B. VALL duly elected, was brought up. Petitions against the tax on newspapers were presented. From the Eastern Division of Surrey, a petition against the contem plated appropriation of the surplus revenues of the Irish Church, was presented by Captain ALSAGER. Major BEAU.. CLERK informed the House in what way the petition happened to obtain 2,000 signatures, denying that it represented the sense of the county, and offering to get readily 30,000 volun tary signatures from his constituents in favour of Lord JOHN RUSSELL'S resolution. A petition from a parish in Staffordshire, complaining of the misappropriation of the Church funds by a Dean and Chapter, was presented. Mr. Alderman WOOD pre sented a petition from St. Dunstan's against church-rates. The presentation of a petition from the House of Assembly of Lower Canada led to a lengthened discussion ; in the course of which, Sir G. GREY stated that the Commission for that colony was complete, and would appear in the next Ga zette. He stated that the Commissioners united with Lord Gosford were Sir C. Grey, who had been for many years Chief Justice of Calcutta, and Captain Gipps, late private se cretary to Lord Auckland. Mr. HUME was of opinion that the people of Canada should have complete control over their own revenues and property ; that the want of that power was the ground of their just complaint, and if given to them in common with the Corporations of England, no necessity for any Commission would exist. Mr. LABOUCHERE took excep tion to some of the sentiments and statements that had been delivered, and thought that the course pursued by the Hon. Member for Bath was opposed to the best interests of the Ca nadians. In the course of Mr. A. JOHNSTONE'S speech res pecting the Scotch Church, Mr. POTTER rose, declaring that the subject was too important to be discussed in so thin a House. The Members were counted, and 40 not being present, an adjournment was moved at a quarter past seven o'clock. PARLIAMENTARY PROCEEDINGS. HOUSE OF COMMONS. ORDERS OF TILE DAY FOR THIS DAY. 1.

The " grand day" has lost none of its attractions, or there is no trusting to appearances ; we were pleased to see this, and not a little surprised, for, after the meagre sport and thin companies of Tuesday and Wednesday, we had made up our minds that it was all going the same way, and that the wrong one. Of the occur rences on the road we know nothing, having taken up our quarters for the week in one of the quiet little villages within an easy dis tance of the Heath, and for the proceedings on the course a few words will suffice. the assemblage was immense, and the specta tors, deprived, as they were, of a great treat, by the unexpected and mysterious withdrawal of Plenipotentiary, conducted themselves in the most orderly . manner throughout the day. By the time ap pointed for the arrival of their Majesties the Heath had put on its wonted brilliant appearance. 3'he promenade in front of the Royal Stand was crowded with fashionables, the sides of the course were lined with carriages five or six feet deep, all the temporary stands were full, and the gaming tables were surrounded by eager votaries of excitement and gain ; a general spirit of gaiety prevailed, except in one spot, the Betting Stand ; and here it must have been evident to the most careless observer that " something was rotten in the state of Denmark." In truth, the Plenipo affair, and the very un favourable nature of the settling on the Derby, were enough to ex cite distrust and anxiety. On the Derby some lost heavily, and paid all:; others also lost large stakes, paid part, and made arrange ments for the payment of the balance; two or three outsiders made, themselves scarce, and one or two nibbled all they c ou ld get, and instead of forking out (as it is elegantly phrased) coolly replied to the solicitations of their creditors, " Really, my dear fellow, if people won't pay me I can't pay you—you must wait." The con sequence of these defalcations is, that many who were good win ners by the race became considerable losers by the settling ; hence the gloom and langour visible at Ascot, and the absence of all ani mation in the betting, which will continue flat until some of the winners (so called) have touched the Spanish. Some of them, by the way, had already done this without profiting by it. About the usual time the Royal party arrived on the race ground. and the spectators were not a little mortified to find that his Ma' jesty was not included in it. We were given to apprehend that the absence of his Majesty was occasioned by an apprehension that the fatigue of the day, and of h:* subsequent journey to town, would be too great for him. The cortege consisted of ten carriages, with the customary retinue. In the first carriage w ere h er ajesty the Queen, her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge, the Prin cess Augusta of Cambridge, and Prince Leopold of Naples. In the other carriages were—His Royal Highness Prince George of Cam bridge, Duke of Dorset, Earl Denbigh, Earl Howe, Earl of Albe. marle ' Prince Lichtenstein, Prince Esterhazy, P r i nce P au l Ester hazy, Princess Esterhazy, Lord Elphinstone, Earl of Errol, Lord Frederick Fitzclarence and family, Sir F. Watson, Sir C. Thornton. Colonel Bowater, Coloi,el :Seymour, Lady Clinton, Hon. Mr. and Mrs. Ashley, Mr. Davies, Mr. Hudson, &c. On appearing at the window of the Royal Stand her Majesty was greeted with loud cheers, and on her .!eparture ior the Castle, after the races, received similar marks of respect- from the thousands congregated in the vicinity of the Stand. In the midst of so great a crowd we found it impossible to collect a list of all the fashionables present. The only names that present themselves to our recollection are the following --The Duke Of Rutland, Marquis and Marchioness of Worcester, Marquis Graham , Earl and Countess of Chesterfield, Earl and Countess of Lichfield, Lord Andover, Lord Southampton, Lord Wilton, Lord Alvanley , Lord and Lady Canterbury and family, Lord Foley, Lord De Roos, Lord Charles Fitzroy, Count Bathiany, Earl of Orford, Lord John Fitzroy, Lord George H.

The other horses kept their places to the bottom of the hill (rather more than a mile from home), where the Merlin filly shot np, and Glencoe took up the running, Bran still lying second ; on making the turn for straight running, Shillelah and Famine made an attempt to get up, but failed, and Nonsense then took the third position. Glencoe continued his lead to the end, and won cleverly by a length, Bran beating Nonsense two or three lengths. Famine was fourth, Shit lelah fifth, Marpessa sixth, Pussy seventh, and the Merlin 51 1 / - eighth, but all beaten off a long way. Very great dissatisfaction is expressed at the conduct of Mr. Batson, in drawing Plenipo without assigning an adequate motive, and we understand that objections will be made to the payment of the bets about him, unless the matte be investigated by the Jockey Club.
