ONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGE NCI, O'CLOCK. To-morro w b e i ng t h e 18th a TWELVE large number of Australian engagements have to be met, and the necessary provision for them has exercised some influence in stimulating the demand, and causing a little more firmness in the terms asked by discounters int mon etary accommodation. Th e mar k et , how ever, is practically unaltered, and in a day or two even greater easiness is not improbable. A further influx of gold took place at the Bank of England yesterday, amounting to £60,000. Atlantic and Great 'Western Railway Debentures have advanced 1, to 311 321, and the Consolidated Mortgage Bonds remain firm at 22 221. BAt the meeting !geld to-day of th e Ch ar t er ed Bank of India, Australia, and China, the report submitted stated that the operations for the year endin g December 31 l as t s h owe d a net pro fi t a mountin g to £97,028. This result the directors deem ed satisfactory { , considering the long con tinuance of the late crisis, with its depressingin fluenee on every b ranch of Eastern business. That crisis not only led to more failures, but seriously Prejudiced the realisation of the bank's claims on the estates of firms which had previously suspended pay ment,especiallythose connected with Bombay. Under these circumstances the directors, after instituting a fresh careful revision of all bad and doubtful debts, calculated up to the pr esen t ti me, h ave cons id ere d thoir duty to write off the sum of £68,332 14s. Bd. from pr o fi t and loss account, to be met in great part b_ y the earnings of the year, but necessitating the further transfer of £lO,OOO from the reserve fund, whiell n ow only s t an d s at as much more. The dire ctors beli eve that the crisis in the East is now bann end, and knowing the e xce ll en t pos iti on o f th e k, and th at its capital is quite intact, have no hesitation in recommending the shareholders to de- Dclare a divid end for the half-year ended on the 31st ec ember l ast, at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum, free of in 1 eorae_tax, which will l eave the sum cf £,131 188. 9d. to be carried forward.

Very little English wheat was received fresh up to-day ; but nearly the whole of Monday's unsold supply was brought fora ard. Forall kinds the demand was inactive ; nevertheless previous rates were supported. The imports of foreign wheat have been only 7,360 quarters. Importers were very firm in their demands. In prices, however, no change took place. Floating cargoes of grain were quite as dear as last week. The arrivals were only moderate. Over 10,000 quarters of foreign barley having arrived the sale for that article was restricted, yet prices were well supported. Malt was a dull inquiry, but not cheaper. The supply was good. Oats were quite as dear as on Monday. Beane and peas, as well as flour, were unaltered in value. KM? ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat. Barley. Malt. Oats. Flour.

Mr. Wyld has just published, in anticipation of the Easter Monday Volunteer Review, a capital plan of the ground at Dover, showing the successive positions of the attacking and defending forces, the rendezvous, tho routes, and the ground for the spectators. NATIONAL DEBT.—Yesterday a return was issued, showing the amount of the National Debt in each year since 1854; the increase, diminution, arc. From 1855 to 1857 the debt increased from £801,978,763 to £831,722,963, and then went on diminishing to £ 8 02,842,949 last year. THE NEW SUGAR DUTIES.—On and after the Ist of May, by the Act 30 Vict., c. 10, the following new sugar duties of excise will be levied : —Refined sugar, 12s. the cwt. ; not equal to refined sugar, lls. 3d. first class ; 10s. 3:I. the second class, 9s. 7d. third class, and Bs. the fourth class. On molasses 3s. 6d. the cwt., and thp same sum on sugar used for brewing. DRAUGHT MATCH.—Arrangements are making at Glasgow for a draught match between James Wylie, of Leven, and Robert Martins, of Douglass, to commence on June the 10th. The stakes are £lOO a side, the match to be 50 games, wins and draws to count. THE THAMES.—The river is daily getting into good order for trout fishing. A fine trout of 81bs. was taken at Chertsey, on Saturday last, by one of the members of the Thanes A ng li ng Preservation Society. Another member tried the Haliford waters a few days since, but only got one to uc h , which entirely cleared his bait. In the previous week he was more successful, having taken two trout of 2ilb., in splendid condition, at Moulsey, which he believes were of the Thames breed. This same gentleman, two seasons since, captured nine large trout out of the preserved waters. J. Seen, of Chertsey, has taken a trout of Vbs. and one of the same weight was taken by a gentleman at Sunbury. Tom Davis, of Moulsey, has b een very fortunate with his patrons, having caught four trout in ono week, the largest being about 4ilb. The lov ers of fish culture will be glad to learn that the young f r y a t Hampton are in a healthy state, and a considerabl e num b er have been turned into the rearing ponds at Sunbury.-- West Surrey Times. JIOMICIDE.—On Friday evening an old man, named Jeremiah Twobig, about 60 years of age, employed as dairyman by a farmer named Lynch, was beaten to death by three other men on the roadside at a place called Codrum, about a mile from Ballyvourney. The parties were return ing from a fair, when a dispute arose between them, ter minating in the death of Twohig and the severe injury of a man named Kelleher. STATISTICS OF DRILL —In an article on the new military organisation, the Temps publishes a curious cal culation as to the number of months and days lost to agri culture and manufactures by the drill to which the army, the reserve, and the national guard mobile will be sub jected. The result shows a total of 5,663,681 months, which gives 471,973 years and five months, or 169,910,430 days consumed each year in barrack or depot. THE BREWER PROTECTOR.---At the sale of the library of the late IL B. Tinibs, Esq., of Worcester, March 20 the autograph of Oliver Cromwell prefixed to a warrant for the payment of an allowance to Sir C. Wolseley was knocked down by Mr. Bentley, the auctioneer, for six guineas, the purchaser being M r . P atrick Johnson, solicitor of London, who, it was stated, is a descendant of the Pro tector.—Brewers' Journal. THE CASE OF STABBING AT EVERTON.—A day or two ago we reported a case of a sailor named Parsons having quarrelled with some fishwomen at a beerhouse in Everton, and that one of the women drew a knife, as did Parsons, who stabbed one of them. The woman, Bridget Cannon, has since died from the injuries inflicted on her by Parsons with the knife. He was brought before the stipendiary magistrate on Saturday at Liverpool, and was then remanded for seven days on the charge of stabbing only. An inquest will be held on the body of the deceased woman. DETENTION OF THE MAILS FOR BOMBAY VIA MARSEILLES.—In consequence of an injury to her ma chinery, the mail packet China will be unable to leave Mar seilles on the morning of the 20th inst. Tho mails for Bombay, which, in due course, should be despatched from London on the evening of the 18th instant, will not be made up until the evening of Saturday, the 20th instant. —General Post Office, April 16. AGRICULTURAL PROSPECTS IN ENGLAND.—At present agricultural prospects are somewhat cheering, from the upward movement in the value of wheat ; and so soon as seed-time is over, thrashing will go on favourably, weather permitting, as the millers aro anxious to secure the best qualities at market prices, and higher rates are consequently in the ascendant.—Mark Lane Express. A COINCIDENCE OF "INSTRUCTION."—Mr. Dis raeli's reply to Mr. Locke was a masterpiece of Par liamentary sarcasm and rebuke, and probably recalls to the mind of the honourable member for Exeter an incident which occurred to him about five and twenty years ago, and which, perhaps, he bad himself almost forgotten. It is as fellows :—The late Master of Balliol College- Dr. Jonkyns—in summing up on some rather damaging and depreciative reports furnished by the tutors as to the de meanour of one of the scholars of the house, who, on the whole, was deservedly regarded as an ornament to that body, addressed him in that peculiar croak, which no man who has ever heard it can either imitate or forget— " Mister Coleridge, we regard you as a very clever young man ; we think very highly of you, Mister Coleridge - very highly indeed—but not ao highly as you do of yourself."— Essex Gazette. ------ --- INTERESTING TO LADIES. — Notwithstanding the nume rous preparations for the restoration and improvement of the Human Hair which are daily put before the public, and all professed to be infallible, but of which the facts are much to be questioned, we have now an opportunity of vouching for the virtues of that long-established ar icle, Rowhnds' Slainssar Oil. Mrs. J. Hennaby, of Carlton-terrace, Great Dover-road, became trite bard ; and although not possessing much faith in any article effecting a restoration of the hair, was persuaded to give Rowlands' Oil a fair trial ; and, atter the use of thr ee bottles, she quite recovered it, and now pos sesses a beautiful head of hair, of considerable length. The lady is too much grat fled to withhold the justice due to the Proprietors of this invaluable preparation. Tim SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, APRIL 17, 1867. SHARE . MARKET3—This day.

Dr. Fanshawe, the head master, has since received his royal highness's express wish that an extra week's holiday should be added to the usual Easter vacation, which has at once been granted. Bedford School, which is in the patronage of New College, Oxford, is the largest endowed granpur school in the kingdom. LAW INTELLIGENCE—ThIs Day. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. (Before the Lord Chief Justice Cockburn and Justices Blackburn, Shee, and Lush.) KELLTHROPP Y. THE GREAT EASTERN RAILWAY. The Solicitor-General moved for a rule in this case to set aside the verdict of the jury, which was in favour of the plaintiff, on the ground that the damages given were excessive. The plaintiff was a person farming over 2,000 acres of land, and while travelling on the Great Eastern Railway an accident occurred, which resulted in such serious injury to him that he was rendered, as it was stated at the trial, helpless for life, and the jury gave him damages to the amount of £7,000. Thu Lord Chief Justice said the case was a very serious one to the plaintiff. lie was an agricul turist, farming over 2,009 acres of land, and a person iu the most vigorous health. By the accident he was ren dered, according to the evidence, a helpless cripple. if there was no hope of his recovering, then the damages he did not consider excessive ; but if at the end of 12 months he so much recovered as to give hope fur the future, then ho thought the damages too large. The best course, he hought, was for the railway company to pay the plaintiff a certain sum down, and then wait to see how he pro gressed, and if the case should be such as the jury expected then they could pay the rest. It was important to both parties that the matter should be settled with fairness. The Solicitor-General said be was perfectly satisfied to let the matter stand in that way. The Lord Chief Justice said it would, however, become necessary to make another inquiry, but on the under standing just come to the Court would grant a rule. COURT OF EXCHEQUER. (Sittings in Banco, beforetho Lord Chief Baron and Barons Martin, Bramwell, and Piggot.) WiNTEREOTHANI Y. THE EARL OF DERBY. Mr. Temple, Q.C. (with him Mr. Russell), moved for a rule for a new trial in this case, on the ground of misdi rection on the part of the learned judge who tried the case, and stated that the facts were these. The action was tried at Manchester at the last assizes, before Mr. Justice Mellor, and on that occasion the defendant submitted to a non suit; and he now complained that through the misdirection of Mr. Justice Mellor the jury was induced to give compensation in damages to the plaintiff, and iu consequence he now asked for a new trial. The matter in dispute was a certain right of way through a place called Preswich in Lancashire, and which belonged to the Earl of Derby. The plaintiff complained that a per son named Staker, who was the agent of the Earl of Derby, had placed across the road wire fences, which had put him to inconvenience and expense on that account, and that the defendant and his agents had no right to put up this wire fence, inasmuch as the way was a public one. The learned counsel then reviewed the possession of the estate from a very early period, and stated that in 1808 it came into the possession of Lord Derby, and from that time the right of way had been disputed. The right of user arose in 1780. The Lord Chief Baron—lf the user of 1780 is right, there is, undoubtedly, an immemorial right of way ; if it is wrong, you are doubtless entitled to a new trial. Mr. Temple—Precisely, that is what I contend, my lord ; and also that when the question of the lease granted in 1808 come into question the onus of proof was shifted from the defendant to the plaintiff. He contended, further, that the user must be subservient to the person bringing the action. It had just been pointed out to him that in the leases a specal clause had been inserted, reserving a right of way to Lord Derby and his successors. Baron Bramwell—But there is a right of way to Lord Derby. Mr. Temple—But it was special to him, and has existed to him and predecessors from time immemorial. Baron Bramwell—That would be a question as a matter of evidence certainly. Mr. Temple—There was another road kept up for the public, and this road Lord Derby had a perfect right to allow his farmers to make use of. The Lord Chief Baron intimated that the Court should grant a rule. Rule nisi accordingly. BROOM V. NICHOLSON. Mr. Brett moved in this case to set aside the verdict, which was tried before the Lind Chief Baron at Guild hall, and in which a verdict was given for the plaintiff for the sum of £550. The case arose out of the collision of two steamers, in which the plaintiff's vessel, the Ross D. Mangles, was sunk, it was alleged, by the negligence of the parties in command of the other. The plaintiff sued the defendants for the loss of his personal property ; the question relating to the recovery of the value of the ship not having yet been tried. The two vessels were steering in opposite directions, and in consequence of the lights of ono of them becoming obscured by the smoke issuing from the funnel the collision took place, but ❑ut, it was contended; at all in the way described by the plaintiff. The Court took time to consider the points involved in rho case. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. (Before Mr. Justice Wilice.) LAVIES V. FRANKS. This was an action brought to recover the value of a horse, which the plaintiff, a surgeon, had purchased of the defendant fur £4O, on the understanding that it was quiet in harness. The plaintiff, after he had had the horse a short time felt that it was not such as had been de scribed, and communicated the fact to the defendant. The defendant said the horse was not properly managed, and the matter resulted in the plaintiff sending the horse to the defendant's residence, and leaving it there fastened to the gates of the house. The horse was taken to the Green yard, and from there to Aldridge's, where it realised the sum of 35 guineas. The matter could not be amicably settled between tho parties, and the present action was the result. After hearing evidence the jury gave a verdict for the plaintiff, damages £4O. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day. BOW-STREET. NOT QUITE A " FRIENDLY CRAPE."—David Clarke, a lithographer, and Elizabeth Lowe, a prostitute, were placed at the bar, the former on the charge of assaulting Richard Hands Hutchinson, and the latter on suspicion of stealing 30s. from his waistcoat pocket. The prosecutor, who said he resided at Hammersmith stated that about half-past one this morning he was drink ing in a publichouso just opposite the Raglan Music Hall, and no sooner had he gained the street than he was set upon by the female prisoner and five or six other men and women. He defended himself as well as he was able with his umbrella, but the male prisoner, whom ho hadnot seen before, rushed in and struck witness a violent blow on the nose. The female prisoner had been drinking in the public house, but he (witness) did not have any con versation with her. After the witness was assaulted the female prisoner hustled him against the wall, and took, he computed, 30s. in silver from his waistcoat pocket. A little time elapsed before ho saw a constable, and during that time he was continually being pushed about by the mob. He then gave the two prisoners into custody. Witness said ho was neither drunk nor sober, but he knew perfectly what he was about. Ho missed the money after he had given the prisoners in charge. The prisoner Clarke said he saw the prosecutor strike the woman, and lie only pushed him aside, calling him a cowardly fellow. Prisoner did not know the female. Never saw her More. The female prisoner asked witness if he was not having a dispute inside the public house. ' Witness—Yes ; some mon were chaffing me. Mr. Vaughan—Was it a friendly chaff or an angry contest ? Witness—lt was more of an angry contest, and the men were enticing me to bet. One man offered to fight me for £5, money down. Ile was not a fighting man. I fancy he was only chaffing me. Police-constable 62 E deposed he saw a crowd of abou fifty people ; and on proceeding towards it saw the witnpss, who gave the prisoner into custody on the pre forred charges. He had known the female for a consider able time. She is always followed by a lot of men. He had seen her as late as five o'clock in the morning. She also frequents Euston-square, and all about that neigh bourhood, and has been convicted before. Had never seen the male prisoner before. Mr. Vaughan said —I am very glad to hear that you have no connection whatever with that woman. You came up in the middle of the disturbance, and could not judge which was the right or the wrong side. On seeing the witness defend himself, you mistook it for an assault on the woman. You acted too impetuously. Th e male prisoner is fined 55., or four days. The female is remanded for a week. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. A SCANDALOUS NUlSANCE.—Elizabeth Bacon, a girl, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with disorderly conduct, &e. • Police-constable Charles Vindon, 34 E, said that on the previous night about 9 o'clock he saw the prisoner and several other boys and girls in Cumberland-street, and directly the prisoner saw him she called out, " Here comes the Bobby !" and ran away, and after going a short distance she turned round and made use of a disgusting expression. Mr. John Beale, harness maker, of No. 1, Gresse-street, Rathbone-place, said he knew the girl to be an associate of a class of boys and girls whose conduct was perfectly frightful. They were in the habit of congregating and annoying the inhabitants of the street, and if any one interfered with them they were grossly insulted. Of a Sunday the boys and girls picked pockets, pelted the passers-by, and bonneted elderly gentlemen. A few days ago a number of them went into a pastrycook's shop, and took away a number of tarts and threw them about the street, and about 400 panes of glass at Percy Chapel h a d been demolished by them. The Prisoner said it was not her, but the other girls. Mr. Tyrwhitt said it was a melancholy thing to see a girl so young doyoted to such wickodavoo. Oho was going to ruin as fast as slip could. Ile should fine her 205., or 7 days. THAMES. EXTRAORDINARY OUTRAGE AND ROBBERY. —Richard Cheshire, a private in the - Grenadier Guards, was brought before Mr. Paget charged with a robbery in a beerhouse. Charles Raine, a London Dock constable, of 5, Trinity buildings, Great Tower-street, stated that last night, at a quarter past ten o'clock, ho was returning home along Towerhill when he heard cries of murder and police pro ceeding from the interior of the Little Tower beerhouse, in Postern-row. On looking in he saw tho prisoner and three or four other soldiers at the bar, the landlady in fear and screaming, and the place in great confusion. He got into the doorway and saw the prisoner violently pushing the other soldiers, end at the same time the prisoner drew the till out of its place, took the money out, and put it into his right-hand trousers pocket. The soldiers then ran away, and proceeded to the Prince Albert publichouse. He followed them, and gave information to a City police const a ble. Mrs. Susannah lrayhow, the landlady of the Little Tower beerhouse, said the prisoner and another soldier rushed into her parlour, and knocked down her husband and another man named Sands. A rush was then made towards the bar, the till was drawn out, and the money abstracted. The till contained a shilling's worth of pence and halfpence, two sixpences, a fourpenny-piece, and a threepenny-piece. The prisoner made a general denial of his guilt. The case, however, was clearly made out against him, and Mr. Paget committed him for trial. WESTMINSTER. VERY REMARKABLE OCCURRBNCE.—Thomas Gordon, a man nearly 30 years of age, was placed at the bar charged with having burglariously broken and entered the shop of Mr. Griffiths, Regent-place, Westminster, and stealing therein a number of watches, gold chains, and other articles of value. . Prosecutor said—l am a watchmaker and jeweller. I discovered on Tuesday (yesterday) morning when I got up that thieves had effected au entrance into my house in the night. I found the staircase window and the back door open. My shop had been entered and a number of watches taken from off my work board, and there were others removed from a glass case. A great deal of the pro perty stolen belonged to customers, being articles sent to me to repair. I afterwards gave the prisoner into custody. Mr. Arnold—Was your house left secure on the pre • vious night ? Prosecutor—l fastened it myself. Mr. Arnold—How was it entered ? Prosecutor—The fastening of the staircase window bad been removed by a knife or some other instrument from outside. Mr. Arnold—Do you know anything of the prisoner ? Prosecutor—Nothing. Mr. Arnold—ls any of your missing property found ? Prosecutor—Yes ; a gold ring has been traced to the prisoner, and is now produced. Mrs. Elizabeth Waterfield—l keep the Old Rose public house, Medway-street, Westminster. Yesterday the pri soner came into my house, and offered to sell mo a ring which belonged to my daughter. Mr. Arnold—Where had the ring been? Witness—We had sent it to Mr. Griffiths to put a stone in, and it was one of the things stolen from his shop. I bought it of the prisoner, because he should not take it away for half-a-crown. I gave information to Mr. Grif fiths immediately, but the prisoner and those that were with him went away directly they had had something to drink. The police went after them, and the man was taken. John Marsh, 62 B—l received information about this robbery, and prisoner having sold the ring, and I found him this morning at the Corner-pin public-house, Strut ton-ground. I told him what I took him for, and he said he had picked up the ring. Prisoner was remanded. Criminal Procedure in Scotland. With reference' to the recent charges against Colonel Nelson and Lieutenant Brand, the Scotsman compares the English and Scotch systems of pro cedure, and expresses a very decided preference for the latter, whether as regards the ends of public justice ox the interests of private citizens. It says:— " In the first place, there is in every criminal court in Scotl ind, from the police court to the High Court of Justiciary, a public prosecutor. The Lord Ad vocate is the principal prosecutor, and can order a prosecution in any court; and where a case is too serious to be disposed of by a police magistrate in the court in which it is to be tried is fixed by the Lerd Advocate, either personally or by his deputies. The Procurators-Fiscal, to whom all cases not suit able to be disposed of in the police-court are re mitted, and who are bound to inquire into every case of which they are informed, have no power to decide whetheraprosecntion shall be carried through or not. After taking depositions in private, with the aid of a magistrate, to compel the witnesses to give evidence, the whole depositions must be for , warded to the Lord Advocate's Department, and it is there decided whether a prosecution for the Crown shall be instituted or not, and, if the former, in what court it shall take place. No private arrange ment between the injured party and the criminal can prevent the public prosecutor from instituting a prosecution, and where a public prosecutor of infe rior grade fails in his duty, he may be found liable to be mulcted in costs, or may be censured or re moved at the instance of the Lord Advocate. By this means security is obtained against oppressive prosecution on the one hand, and lax conduct in the suppression of crime on the - other. And so well does the system work that a prosecution by an in jured party himself, in consequence of improper declinature of the officers of the Crown to prosecute, does not occur once in 50 y ears . A s regar d s pr i vate prosecution, the rules of law give ample f ac iliti es to injured parties and their relatives to prose cute, but at the same time provide sufficient safeguards against frivolous or malicious prose cution. A private individual is not allowed t o prosecute unless he can show a substantial interest to do so, whether as being the injured party himself, or as being a relative or guardian of the sufferer. And when he claims to prosecute he must find security to insist in the charge, and may ultimately be found liable to the accused in costs if he fail to establish his case. Moreover, at the outset of the proceedings, he must obtain the concurrence of the public prosecutor (who is bound to give it, unless he show cause why it should not be given), and is liable to be called on by the accused to take an 'oath of calumny'—that is, to swear to his rea sonable Lelief of the justice of his cause. But, sub ject to these safeguards, a private prosecutor cannot be prevented from presenting his case to a jury. He has not to fight nice questions of law or evidence before a magistrate in a police court, or to peril his case before a grand jury sitting iu secret conclave, and finding or not finding a true bill on imperfect information, and without hearing any argument. If his charge be relevant, he is entitled to the verdict of a jury upon it. On the other hand, in all prose cutions the accused is not placed in the position of having ex parte depositions and declamatory speeches used against him in a police court, and then being pre vented from meeting his accuser fairlyby the abandon ment of the prosecution. The prosecutor cannot place any evidence against him before the public until he does so in that court in which a finaljudg ment must be given, convicting or for ever acquit ting. Had the English system of criminal law been similar to that which prevails in this benighted and barbarous end of the island persons such as Mr. John Stuart Mill, not being in any way related to Mr. Gordon, would not have been allowed to charge gentlemen with murder for the purpose of clearing up some intricate point about martial law ; but, again, any person who was a near relative of Gor don could not have been prevented from demanding a verdict by the veto either of a Bench of Justices or a Grand Jury, both acting on what was neces sarily imperfect information. On the other hand, the gentlemen who were accused would not have been subjected to an imperfect trial, and having de positions against them published in every newspaper, and lengthy speeches made against them by learned Counsel, and would have been secure of having their case fairly and fully tried, and of being indemnified for their costs in the event of the prosecution result ing in an acquittal." THE NATIONAL FIELD TRIALS OF SPORTING DUGS FOR PRIZES.--The public trials of pointers on game in the field will take place on the Wednesday in Easter week, over a manor near Guosall ; and subsequently the setters will be hunted over an estate at Ooton-bill. Both localities are near Stafford. The entries of dogs to con tend for the prizes will close to-morrow, the 17th. The trials will occupy two or three days. The dogs will be tried over partridges, and the committee have decided that a charge of powder shall be fired when the birds rise, in order to test the education and porfectiou of the dogs while 011 game, lOU et 1 20 201 10 100 1 RIO 100 100 all 100 100 100 {lOO 10 100 100 108 71 1011 92 i'Fti s.

' We shall not have a runner for the Two Thousand, according to present appearances, as Grand Cross is disqualified and Will Wind has been eased Skysail, however, goes for the One Thousand, and looks uncommonly well though rather backward. Still she can have no chance with Achievement. Grand Cross cantered four times this morning, led by Knight of the Crescent, and accompanied by Soulouque ; after which they galloped a mile and a half. War gave Vernon similar work. Skirmisher took Coryhantica a mile and three-quarters. Ap plecross gave Skylark a two-mile spin, and Camillo followed slowly. Treasure Trove and Lion galloped a mile and a quarter. Dusty Miller was in mile work. Punster trotted about. MIDDLEHAM. Our Two Thousand horses, the Priest, Mandrake, Child of the Islands, and Weather Guide are too backward. The first-mentioned is the best of the quartette. The Oaks mares, Minster Bell, Lem)vi enne, and Romping Girl are more fit; and one of these may show. The above, with Corporal and Tynedale, who are in the Derby, galloped a mile and a half this morning. Fervacques did a mile and three quarters. Fitzroy had a two mile spin to himself, and is getting very fit for York. The Centaur took a nice steady gallop of a mile and three quarters. MARLBOROUGH. Staghound merely trotted this morning. Pin tail and Bradamante galloped a mile and three quarters together. Pepper's Ghost followed for a mile and a half. Captain Kidd, the Splitvote colt, and Lord Paramount had a nice mile and a half gallop. The two Mayonaise fillies, Pussy and Dra goon, with Overture had several smart canters, and then galloped a mile. Savernako went a raking two miles, and grandly. FINDON. Owain Glyndwr has received a good preparation for the Two Thousand, and will run a game, sound horse, but is barely class good enough. To day he galloped a mile and a half in rare form, after doing two canters of a mile each. Lady Lambton has done good work for the One Thou sand, but is too moderate for that race. Madrid is pretty fit for the Newmarket Two-Year-Old Plate, yet lacks the required speed to compete with Lady Elizabeth and others of the Danebury stamp. Ratna was again restricted to walking exercise. Gilead is doing real good work for the Chester Cup, and is a fair horse. LEWES. Ostreger and Acton wilt go to Newmarket on Saturday. This morning, after two canters, they galloped a mile and three-quarters first class. RICHMOND. This morning Plaudit, Newland, Strathconan, and Rose had another rare good mile and a half gal lop after three nice canters, and acquitted them selves first class. Still Plaudit cannot be pronounced fit, and Rose, we repeat, has cert tinly not improved. The two last mentioned may leave here for New market on Saturday. Butnblekite followed Impera tor quite a mile and three-quarters. Nothing More is all the better for the sweat, and to-dity went a mile and a half pretty fast, as did Fat Bob and Donation. Proctor galloped a mile splendidly. Inchkeith merely trotted. NEWMARKET. The Rake was out early on the Long Hill, anJ, after taking a couple of steady canters, did a mile and a half gallop, but he seemed to tire at the finish. D'Estournel was exceedingly fractious to-day ; he, however, galloped a mile and a half. Friponnier had a mile and a quarter spin by himself, fast. Julius trotted some time, and then went a rattler fornearly a mile and a half led by the Beadle. Hermit cantered awhile, and then gallop , ' a little over a mile very slowly. .Trocadero did the most work, and well too, for he had two smart canters, and then galloped a mile and three-quarters, moving with the gracefulness of a bird and the strength of a lion. Star of India also galloped freely for a mile and a half, and is forward in condition. Sir Oliver was working steadily, but will not be fit for the Two Thousand. Jasper accompanied Hippia for a mile and a half, the pair being led by Dales man ; and Opoponai galloped a mile and a quarter. Van Amburgh followed Musician all a mile and three-quarters, Verulam being with them. Sunny locks went nearly two miles, and Archimedes went over that distance. Plutus took the Dragon a mile and three-quarters at a cracking pace, and the latter performed uncommonly well. Tormentor was gal loping over a couple of miles. STOCKBRIDGE. Gomera led Vauban two canters, and then a mile and a half gallop ; and the pair went strong and fast. Pantaloon led Harpenden and Lady Rose a cracker for a mile and a quarter. Seville galloped a mile and a half at rare speed, and is fit for the Two Thousand, in which she is bound to get a place. Lady Elizabeth also goes to Newmarket for the Two Year Old Plate, being quite ripe and a veritable clinker. The Duke was still about. John Davis led Lecturer a couple of miles steadily. Disti❑ and Fairfield trotted only ; and Uncas went a mile and three-quarters slowly. ILSLEY. Achievement was trotting about some time, then cantered a mile twice, and finished up with a mile and a quarter gallop at three parts speed. The General galloped a mile and three quarters. We have got two strange horses here, one looking very like Knight of the Garter, probably to be tried with Lord Lyon, who this morning went a mile and a half very fast. Dalby did over two miles, galloping beautifully. Elland, too, is in similar work. LAM.BOIJRNE. Marksman • cantered three times this morning, and subsequently took a three-parts speed gallop of about a mile and a half, looking and going superbly. The Sunflower filly also went through a like amount of exercise. The rest of Mr. Merry's team, barriug Cawdor (who did plenty), were trotting and canter ing only. TR* CONDEMNED CRIMINAL IN KIRKDALE GAOL. —Efforts aro being made to obtain a commutation of 1114 capital sentence passed at the last assizes upon Daniel Al'Canby, a coachman, for the murder of Henry Willis, at Leavensholme, near Manchester. It is generally felt that this is a case calling for the exercise of the Royal clemency, but as yet no intimation has been received that the extreme punishment will not be carried out. The unhappy culprit seems to be sensible of the awful posit ion in which he stands, and pays the greatest attention to the ministrations of the Roman Catholic priests by whom he is attended. The cri minal was visited on Wednesday by his brother, and on Saturday by his wife, and on both occasions the interviews were most affecting.—Liverpool Mercury. The New York Evening Post advises the Republi cans of the South to drop the terms Union and Rebel, as applied to themselves and their opponents, and call thion em selves by their true name of Repu blicans. The opposit deny stoutly that they are rebels, and claim to be as true to the Union as those who favour equal suffrage, and the perpetuation of the nomenclature of the war manifestly tends to perpetuate its feuds and hatreds. Not a few Con gressmen need tho same advice. They talk about rebels and enemies as if the war were still going on. How long do they propose to keep it up ? .And how much do thoy suppose they contribute in this way to the propagation of right ideas and feelings in the south ? 11.11=1110 SI'ORTING INTELLIGENCE—This Day.
